Real Betis vs Real Madrid — AI prediction

Result

Real Betis 1-0 Real Madrid

Kick-off: 2026-09-04

Real Madrid arrive in dominant form: 5 wins in last 5 (14 goals, 2 conceded), 3 consecutive La Liga victories with 10 goals and just 2 against. Kylian Mbappé leads with 3 goals in 2 appearances. Real Betis sit 6th (6 pts, -1 GD) after a 5-2 loss to Levante last weekend and mixed recent results (W-W-L-D-L). Both sides suffer multiple injuries—Madrid missing Eder Militao, Rodrygo, Endrick, and Mendy; Betis without Lo Celso, Ruibal, Conde, and Ezzalzouli—but Madrid's superior depth and elite attacking form overwhelm Betis's home-venue advantage. H2H favours Madrid (4-1-5 record; 5-1 win just months ago). Bookmaker odds (1.36 away) reflect clear betting consensus.
