Preview

Halfway through the league, in matchday 15 of Liga F, Real Madrid await Real Betis on Alfredo Di Stefano. This match will also be Real Madrid’s first match of 2023 at home.

In their previous encounter, Las Blancas won with the minimal lead of 1:0 over Real Betis thanks to Esther’s goal that was assisted by Ivana.

“In the league we’re where we want to be, we want to keep going for the second place,“ Esther speaks for Real Madrid TV. “We’re on a 5-matches win streak in the league and we want to keep the continuity.”

Real Madrid now sit 3rd on the table with 1 point behind and 2 matches played less than the second-placed Levante.
