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.

Bellingham and Valverde were not in the squad . And that is why we did not see a good performance from madrid's midfield. Luka modrich did not play well in this match. modrich does not have the ability to perform  well regularly from the Starting XI anymore . It is foolish to expect too much from Modrich.

However I did not think that Real madrid would lose this match . My guess was that the match would  be a draw. If Madrid's defenders had performed a little better, Real Madrid might not have lost the match. The first half ended 1-1. Real Betis increased their attack speed in the second half, but Madrid performed a little more carefully. But in the end , Real Madrid lost the match by a margin of 2-1.

Atletico madrid is now at the top of the points table. Real madrid is in third place . If barcelona wins against Real Sociedad today , the top spot of the Laliga table will be in Barcelona's hands again..
