Real Madrid arrived on a six-match winning streak across all competitions, but that run came to a dramatic halt on matchday 4 of the Primera Division. Despite generating an expected goals figure of 3.46 and missing a penalty deep into stoppage time through Kylian Mbappé in the 90+4th minute, Real Madrid could not find a breakthrough. Instead, T. Parrott struck in the 81st minute for the hosts, whose heroics included a stellar 10-rated performance from Álvaro Valles. Real Madrid had been unbeaten in their last five matches, boasting three wins and no defeats in the division prior to this evening.
This fixture historically produces tight contests, mirroring a recent 1-1 draw between the clubs in April 2026. Real Betis finished fifth last term with 60 points, while Real Madrid took second place with 86 points. Recent head-to-head records across their last six meetings since 2023 showed two wins for Real Madrid and one for Real Betis alongside three draws. The hosts had previously won three of their last five league outings, including a 1-0 victory at Valencia, though they also suffered a 5-2 defeat at Levante. Meanwhile, Real Madrid's strong start featured three victories from three league matches and a 4-0 home win against Málaga.
The upset lifted Real Betis from seventh up to third in the table, while Barça leads the twenty-team standings on nine points. Real Betis will next play away at Lille on 8 September.
