Defending champions Real Madrid aim to improve their sluggish start to the season as they face Real Betis in a significant La Liga matchup. The eagerly anticipated Galacticos 2.0 era has not begun as many fans of Los Blancos hoped, with the team entering this match seven points behind their rivals, current league leaders Barcelona, after dropping points against Mallorca and Las Palmas.
In contrast, Manuel Pellegrini’s Betis have had an unbeaten start to their campaign, buoyed by a midweek victory in the UEFA Europa Conference League play-off against Ukrainian side Kryvbas.
Real Madrid will host Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabéu on Sunday, September 1, with kickoff scheduled for 9:30 p.m. CEST local time, which translates to 3:30 p.m. ET and 12:30 p.m. PT in the U.S.; 8:30 p.m. in the UK; and 5:30 a.m. AEST in Australia on Monday.
