Real Madrid are second in La Liga and only a point behind league leaders Barcelona. Both those sides have a game in hand now due to the recent El Clasico postponement. Madrid host Real Betis who are down in 16th place and only three points above the relegation zone. Real Madrid have only lost one league game this season, a suprise 1-0 defeat at Mallorca. They have won three of their last four league and cup games. Midweek saw them beat bottom of the table Leganes 5-0 at home with all their goals scored by different players. Home form has seen Madrid win their last four league games with 14 goals scored. They have put at least two goals past their opponents in each of those matches. 

Real Betis won 2-0 away in Madrid last season but their opponents have improved since then. The same cannot be said for Betis who have only won three of their 11 league games this season. They ended a run of four league games without a win when beating Celta Vigo 2-1 at home on Wednesday. Betis were beating a team that are in the relegation zone and have lost four of their last five league games. Betis have been struggling away from home this season and have just one point from their five games. Six goals have been scored but 14 conceded, more than any other team in La Liga. Twice this season they have conceded five goals in an away league match, losing to Barcelona and Villarreal, with another three conceded at Real Sociedad. The tip here is for a home win with Madrid ahead at both half and full time.
