Real Madrid will take on Real Betis on Saturday afternoon, looking to pick up three more points in a title race with Barcelona that is only just starting to heat up.
Los Blancos are flying high after a 5-0 victory over Leganes at mid-week, and the buzz around right winger Rodrygo is palpable. The 18-year-old has started both of Real’s last games, shining against Galatasaray in his Champions League debut before needing just seven minutes to score against Leganes in what turned out to be an impressively well-rounded display of wing play.
Real Madrid fully expect to obtain all three points on Saturday when they face Real Betis at 9 pm. CET. The fans at the Santiago Bernabeu were treated to a clinic by Los Blancos on Wednesday against Leganes, and while Betis will be a tougher test for Zinedine Zidane’s squad, nothing less than a win will be accepted by this fanbase.
Per Real’s Twitter account, below is the official 19-man squad for this La Liga matchup at the Bernabeu.

Let’s take a look at the most notable aspects of the squad, which looks quite similar to the squad Zidane used to get a big win against Leganes. That similarity is a very good thing, especially since it means Real Madrid are finally fielding a more stable squad after being ravaged by injuries to start the season.
