Attacks to reign supreme in Seville

Both Real Madrid and Real Betis snapped winless runs on Tuesday and each will be keen to build on their positive results when they do battle at Estadio de La Cartuja on Friday. 

Alvaro Arbeloa’s side are trying to keep up their pursuit of table-topping rivals Barcelona, so it was essential they beat Alaves in the week after two La Liga games without a win. 

Beat them they did, with Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe doing the damage in a 2-1 win, but it will be a worry that another game has passed without a clean sheet, and it is looking increasingly likely a shaky defence will cost them the title. 

Real Madrid have gone eight games without a shutout and that streak is unlikely to be snapped at Real Betis, who have been flexing their attacking muscles of late. 

In-form forwards can rack up the goals

Manuel Pellegrini’s hosts have scored 12 goals in their last seven matches and red-hot Abde Ezzalzouli’s one goal and two assists in Tuesday’s 3-2 win at Girona proves they have the talent to hurt a porous Madrid defence. 

Shutting out Mbappe and Vinicius may prove more difficult, of course, but Betis have more than enough to play their part in a Seville spectacle on Friday.

The reverse fixture finished 5-1 in Madrid’s favour and with over 2.5 goals and both teams to score landing in the visitors’ last five away games, a thriller is likely.
