Real Betis vs. Real Madrid live stream

They have won two of their last three matches with a 1-0 win over Deportivo and 3-2 win over Villareal in their last two games. If they are to get a result however, they will need to drastically improve their home form ahead of the visit of Zidane’s men. If that comes to fruition, they would become first side since Bayern Munich in 1976 to win the continent’s elite club competition three times on the bounce.

The team’s scoring records however has been one of the main reason for their upsurge in fortunes.

Does being a modern day coach take its toll and do you think the Real Madrid job is one which you can only do for a certain amount of time?

Winger Antonio Sanabria (meniscus) and defender Zouhair Feddal (achilles) remain long-term injury absentees.

Striker Joel Campbell (knee) is not yet back to full fitness and there are also doubts over the availability of attacker Ruben Castro (chest) to play this weekend.

Everyone knows Harry Kane is the top of Perez’s shopping list in the summer but can Madrid really go all the way in the Champions League while carrying Benzema.

A penalty converted by Cristiano Ronaldo gave the home side an equaliser on the verge of half-time.

Zidane told the postgame news conference that his team had worked together to make sure they turned the game around for what was just their second win in their last six Liga away trips.

Seeing as Florentino Perez is the most ruthless man in football it comes as a surprise to everyone that Benzema has not been shipped out and replaced by a shinier, more prolific model.

Costa, who missed the 4-1 win at FC Copenhagen in the Europa League last 32 tie in midweek with a knock, was denied a penalty in the first half but sealed the win with a near-post finish in the 80th after latching on to a through ball from Gameiro.

Betis came from behind to lead 2-1 at the interval, but Real Madrid – who stay fourth in the table on 45 points – impressively turned things around in the second period to triumph in Seville.

“It was a real end-to-end affair, a bit of a frantic game, but I enjoyed it”.

The champions all-but have a fully fit squad to choose from for Sunday’s clash.

Gareth Bale is set to return to the starting XI for Sunday night’s encounter, after not making it in the midweek victory in the European fixture.

Betis also had the first chance of the second period when Fabian Ruiz found fellow midfielder Andres Guardado just outside the Real Madrid box, but the Mexican curled his effort over the crossbar.
