Real Madrid host Betis in the first game after the Christmas break. Los Blancos will be without Kylian Mbappé, who could be out for a while with a knee injury. In that context, Rodrygo will be expected to start in the center of the attacking line.
Real Madrid predicted XI: Courtois; Valverde, Rüdiger, Asencio, Carreras; Tchouaméni, Camavinga, Güler; Bellingham, Rodrygo and Vinicius.
Betis predicted XI: Valles; Bellerín, Bartra, Natan, Valentín; Deossa, Marc Roca; Ruibal, Fornals, Antony; Cucho.
Los Blancos have been very inefficient without Mbappé, so it will be interesting to see who steps up tonight.
