The 2025–26 La Liga season continues with a thrilling encounter this weekend as Real Betis host Atletico Madrid at the Estadio Benito Villamarín on Monday, October 27th, 2025. Both teams are eyeing European qualification spots, making this clash crucial for their momentum.
Real Betis have been one of the most consistent sides in La Liga this season, currently sitting in sixth place. Manuel Pellegrini’s men have impressed with their structured defense and creative midfield play, though they were held to a goalless draw by Genk in the Europa League midweek. Betis will aim to regain their attacking sharpness when facing a tough Atletico side.
Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid come into this match after a rough week, suffering a 4–0 loss to Arsenal in the Champions League. Despite that setback, Diego Simeone’s men remain strong domestically, holding fifth place with several key players — including Antoine Griezmann and Álvaro Morata — expected to lead the attack.
Atletico Madrid have won 28 of the last 47 matches against Real Betis, losing only eight.
Real Betis are unbeaten in their last eight games across all competitions.
Atletico Madrid have conceded in eight of their last nine matches in all tournaments.
The last meeting between these teams ended 2–1 in favor of Atletico Madrid.
Real Betis have shown strong form at home and will rely on the creativity of Isco and Fekir to challenge Atletico’s defense. However, Simeone’s squad will look to bounce back from their midweek defeat with a disciplined and physical display.
Expect a tactical battle where both sides have their moments, but Atletico’s efficiency and depth may make the difference.
Prediction: Real Betis 1–2 Atletico Madrid
