Real Betis vs Real Madrid Predictions

• Real Madrid have hit 60 efforts on goal in their opening three La Liga matches
• Real Madrid have produced expected goal numbers of 2.71, 3.18 and 2.62 in their three league games
• Real Madrid have lost only one of their last 12 matches against Real Betis

Goals to flow in Seville

Jose Mourinho’s return to Real Madrid was met with scepticism, but the veteran manager has made a strong start to his second spell in charge of Los Blancos.

Real have started the campaign with a 2-1 win at Espanyol and 4-1 and 4-0 Bernabeu successes over Real Sociedad and Malaga.

Clearly, bigger tests await later in the season, and it remains to be seen if Mourinho will go into his shell when Real Madrid face stronger opposition.

As it stands, Los Blancos have hit 60 efforts on goal in their opening three La Liga matches and put up expected goals figures of 2.71, 3.18 and 2.62.

That’s a pretty healthy attacking return and it’s not a huge surprise with Mourinho able to call on Yan Diomande, Arda Guler, Vinícius Junior, Jude Bellingham, Brahim Diaz and Kylian Mbappe in attack.

Real Betis are charged with stopping that forward line on Friday night and last weekend’s 5-2 loss at Levante doesn’t inspire confidence.

Manager Manuel Pellegrini, who has never been shy when it comes to attacking, may choose to meet fire with fire at Estadio La Cartuja and it appears likely that the goals will flow in Seville.
