Betis occupy seventh place with six points after two victories and one defeat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Real Madrid begin the fourth matchday level on points with leaders Barcelona. Victory in Seville would temporarily move Los Blancos three points clear and strengthen the positive momentum created at the beginning of Mourinho\u2019s second spell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Real Betis vs Real Madrid Match Details<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Match fact<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Information<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fixture<\/td><td>Real Betis vs Real Madrid<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Competition<\/td><td>La Liga<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Matchday<\/td><td>Four<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Date<\/td><td>Friday, September 4, 2026<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Kickoff<\/td><td>10:00pm East African Time<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Venue<\/td><td>Estadio La Cartuja, Seville<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Betis manager<\/td><td>Manuel Pellegrini<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Real Madrid manager<\/td><td>Jos\u00e9 Mourinho<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The contest begins at 9:00pm Central European Summer Time, which is 10:00pm in Uganda. The official <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realmadrid.com\/en-US\/news\/football\/first-team\/fixtures\/betis-real-madrid-exigente-salida-en-la-cuarta-jornada-de-liga-04-09-2026\">Real Madrid<\/a> match preview identifies the encounter as one of the club\u2019s most demanding assignments so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Real Betis Looking for a Reaction<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Betis began the campaign impressively, recording consecutive 1-0 victories over Real Sociedad and Valencia. Those disciplined displays were followed by a surprising 5-2 defeat away to Levante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marc Bartra and Rodrigo Riquelme scored as Betis twice responded after falling behind, but Pellegrini\u2019s team eventually lost control. The result exposed defensive weaknesses that could prove costly against Real Madrid\u2019s powerful attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pellegrini, now in his seventh consecutive season with Betis, is expected to make changes. Diego Llorente, Pablo Fornals and Cucho Hern\u00e1ndez are among the players pushing for starting positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hosts can still draw confidence from their record at La Cartuja. They defeated Real Sociedad 1-0 in their only home match this season and have avoided defeat in their last four home encounters with Real Madrid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Betis will also begin their first <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/champions-league-draw-2026-27-clubs-opponents\/\">Champions League Campaign<\/a> in 21 years against Lille next week. Pellegrini must therefore balance the excitement surrounding their European return with the immediate challenge of stopping an in-form Madrid side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"976\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104413431.png\" alt=\"Real Madrid players in white home kits celebrate together on the pitch, embracing near midfielder Jude Bellingham (number 5), with teammates wearing numbers 27 and 12 joining in, and a blurred stadium crowd in the background.\" class=\"wp-image-9050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104413431.png 976w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104413431-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104413431-768x511.png 768w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104413431-150x100.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104413431-696x464.png 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 976px) 100vw, 976px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Real Madrid players celebrate a goal, with Jude Bellingham at the center of the group huddle.

Los Blancos then defeated Real Sociedad 4-1 before recording another four-goal performance against newly promoted M\u00e1laga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 has scored four times across Madrid\u2019s last two matches and recently registered his 60th La Liga goal. Jude Bellingham has contributed two goals and played a part in three others, including the decisive header in Madrid\u2019s victory over M\u00e1laga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those numbers demonstrate the variety within Mourinho\u2019s attack. Madrid can threaten through Mbapp\u00e9\u2019s movement, Vin\u00edcius J\u00fanior\u2019s direct running, Arda G\u00fcler\u2019s creativity and Bellingham\u2019s late arrivals into the penalty area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friday\u2019s match also begins a demanding September schedule. Madrid host Inter Milan in their Champions League opener before facing Rayo Vallecano, Elche and Atl\u00e9tico Madrid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Team News and Predicted Lineups<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Betis are expected to be without Diego Conde, Aitor Ruibal and Giovani Lo Celso through injury. Dani Ceballos has returned to the club on a free transfer from Real Madrid, but a lack of match fitness could prevent him from immediately facing his former team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Possible Real Betis XI:<\/strong> Valles; Beller\u00edn, Diego Llorente, Natan, Fran Garc\u00eda; Facundo, Fornals; Antony, Isco, Riquelme; Cucho Hern\u00e1ndez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Real Madrid\u2019s confirmed 23-player squad does not include Ra\u00fal Asencio, Ferland Mendy, Thiago Pitarch, Rodrygo, \u00c9der Milit\u00e3o, Aur\u00e9lien Tchouam\u00e9ni or Endrick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mourinho may recall Denzel Dumfries, Ibrahima Konat\u00e9, Bernardo Silva and G\u00fcler after rotating his starting team against M\u00e1laga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Possible Real Madrid XI:<\/strong> Courtois; Dumfries, Konat\u00e9, Huijsen, Cucurella; Bernardo Silva, Valverde; G\u00fcler, Bellingham, Vin\u00edcius; Mbapp\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"739\" height=\"415\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104727557.png\" alt=\"Real Betis players in green-and-white striped kits celebrate a goal on a rain-soaked pitch, with one player sliding on his knees, arms outstretched, while teammates cheer behind him and an opponent looks on near the goalpost.\" class=\"wp-image-9051\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104727557.png 739w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104727557-300x168.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104727557-150x84.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/image_2026-09-04_104727557-696x391.png 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 739px) 100vw, 739px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Real Betis players celebrate a goal in front of the home crowd, sliding on their knees in front of the goal.

The most recent encounter at La Cartuja finished 1-1 in April 2026 after H\u00e9ctor Beller\u00edn scored a stoppage-time equaliser.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Real Madrid\u2019s last away victory against Betis was a 1-0 success in August 2021. Mourinho\u2019s team must therefore overcome a difficult recent record despite entering Friday\u2019s contest as favourites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Players to Watch<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mbapp\u00e9 is Madrid\u2019s most obvious threat. His pace can punish Betis if their defensive line advances too far, while his finishing form makes every opportunity dangerous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bellingham\u2019s battle with Isco could shape the midfield contest. Isco provides Betis with creativity between the lines, while Bellingham combines technical quality with strength, pressing and intelligent movement into attacking positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Antony and Riquelme must exploit the space behind Madrid\u2019s adventurous full-backs. Betis are unlikely to dominate possession, making efficiency during counterattacks essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/real_madrid_action_server_safe-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 in a dark kit takes a shot while competing against Real Sociedad defenders during a football match.\" class=\"wp-image-8695\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/real_madrid_action_server_safe-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/real_madrid_action_server_safe-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/real_madrid_action_server_safe-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/real_madrid_action_server_safe-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/real_madrid_action_server_safe-696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/real_madrid_action_server_safe-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/ug\/temps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/real_madrid_action_server_safe.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 strikes the ball during Real Madrid\u2019s match against Real Sociedad.
