Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that he will field his strongest possible lineup for Saturday’s La Liga clash against Real Betis, emphasising the importance of securing all three points.

Speaking ahead of the match, Ancelotti acknowledged Betis’ strong form and the challenge they will pose at the Santiago Bernabéu.

“We’re coming into it in good form, and so are Betis. They’re well drilled, work hard, and have great individual and collective attributes,” he said.

The Italian coach stressed that the game is crucial in the title race and that Madrid cannot afford to take their foot off the gas.

“It will be a difficult game because both teams have a lot to play for. I’ll put out my best possible team tomorrow because there are three vital points up for grabs in the fight for La Liga.”

Despite having a high-stakes Champions League fixture on Tuesday, Ancelotti made it clear that his focus remains on securing a win against Betis first.

He went on: “It’s going to be a tough match, and I’ll put out the best eleven, without looking ahead to Tuesday’s game.”

With the title race heating up, Ancelotti’s decision to prioritise La Liga underscores Madrid’s determination to maintain their dominance on the domestic front. .
