Betis vs Real Madrid. Prediction and Betting Tips for La Liga

Real Betis started the La Liga season with three consecutive victories, but that spell was broken by Real (1:2). But now the White-Greens are on a three-game winning streak again - they beat Almeria, Valladolid and Elche. Team needs to beat the current champion in order to extend the string to four victories. 

Team's key player, Nabil Fekir, received a serious knee injury and now he is out for the rest of the season. That injury overshadowed club's 3:2 victory over Elche and team will surely miss Fekir in the game against Madrid, because Beticos have won only one of eight latest matches against Real. After 23 matches, hosts have 12 victories and four draws, delivering 40 points and a 5th position in the standings. 

Fekir, Canales and Cruz will miss the upcoming game. 

This mid-week, Real suffered a defeat to Barcelona (0:1) in the semi-final of Copa del Rey. Things are no better in La Liga - team is currently seven points away from the 1st position. 

Visitors never had a string of three games without a victory in the current season and los Blancos need a victory today to maintain that record. After 23 matches, the Whites have 16 victories and four draws, delivering 52 points and a 2nd position in the standings. 

Alaba, Mendy and Modric will miss the upcoming game.
