Honestly with the type of midfielder that real Madrid lined up today I am not surprised that they lost. Yes it understandable that they coach is also trying to have a solid team for their match against Athletico Madrid in the mid week but going by how solid Real betis has been lately I will say that they underrated then too much and they paid fge costly price.
The league is still very opened and with inconsistency here and there between the top three team, the league is very open for anyone.

Yes, in this match Real Madrid did not field their mainstay midfielder, namely Bellingham's. But in my personal opinion, even though Bellingham's was fielded by Real Madrid in this match, I don't think the result will be much different in this match. Because basically the midfielder that Real Madrid fielded in this match, you could say wasn't bad either. Apart from that, Real Madrid's front line is also filled with main players, namely Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo. So, in my personal opinion, Real Madrid didn't deserve to lose in this match. Because the squad that Real Madrid fielded in this match, almost all of them were main players. But it turns out Betis really kept Real Madrid from moving in this match.

Apart from that, with this defeat, Real Madrid's position has currently dropped to 3rd place in Laliga. Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid rose to first place in Laliga. So with this, I think the competition in the top Laliga standings will indeed be very tight this season. But even so, I don't think Atletico Madrid will stay at the top for long. because tonight Barcelona will compete with Sociedad and it is very likely that Barcelona can win this match. And if Barcelona can win over Sociedad and take over the top position again, this will make Barcelona have a 3 point difference with rivals Real Madrid. So with this, the tight competition at the top seems to be contested by Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

Indeed, even without Bellingham playing, Real Madrid should have been able to win against Betis, but of course here Betis unexpectedly played well and their mentality was very good in that match. However, considering that Betis has a ranking that is not too bad, which is currently ranked 6th in the standings, Betis cannot be taken lightly, but of course with the many star players at Real Madrid, Real Madrid should have been able to win even though they were playing at Betis' headquarters. Of course, Bellingham's role is now very much needed because he has always helped well, but of course due to the red card tragedy against Osasuna, Ancelotti was unable to put Bellingham on the field to play during the match against Betis.

Yes, of course, the Barcelona match against Real Sociedad will definitely be exciting and it seems that I also predict that Barcelona will have great potential to win when they play against Real Sociedad. Of course, now if Barcelona wins against Real Sociedad, of course Atletico Madrid will be closer to competing with Barcelona. but of course we will not know what will happen later when Real Sociedad plays against Barcelona because of course sometimes there could be a surprise like today's match Real Madrid vs Betis.
and I also remember in the last match Barcelona played against Real Sociedad at that time Real Sociedad won with a score of 1-0 but even so it seems I will bet on Barcelona's victory in the Barcelona vs Real Sociedad match later
