Real Madrid visit Real Betis in La Liga on September 4

Real Madrid will look to extend their perfect start to the La Liga season when they visit Real Betis at the Estadio de La Cartuja on Friday, September 4, 2026. The match, scheduled for a 9:00 p.m. CEST kickoff, is the fourth fixture of the 2026-27 campaign for both clubs. Real Madrid enters the contest with a flawless record, having won all three of their opening matches. They began with a 2-1 away victory over Espanyol, followed by dominant home performances, defeating Real Sociedad 4-1 and newly promoted Malaga 4-0. The attacking unit has been prolific, scoring 10 goals in those three games. Jude Bellingham, Kylian Mbappé, and Arda Güler have all found the net, with Mbappé scoring his 60th La Liga goal in the win over Malaga. Manager José Mourinho's side currently sits level on nine points with Barcelona, though they could move three points clear at the top with a victory, as Barcelona plays on Sunday. Real Betis, managed by Manuel Pellegrini, has had a mixed start to the season. They opened with two consecutive 1-0 wins against Real Sociedad and Valencia but suffered a heavy 5-2 defeat to Levante in their most recent match.
