Real Madrid’s LaLiga trip to face Real Betis has its final details confirmed, with the fixture set for a venue away from Betis’s usual home. This preview, updated on 17 September 2026, confirms the kick-off time, venue and broadcast arrangements first outlined in our original match guide. Nothing in the confirmed position has changed since that first report, but this update brings the key facts together in one place for supporters planning their matchday.
Real Betis vs Real Madrid: Match Update
The headline details have not changed since our first report. Real Madrid face Real Betis on Friday, 4 September, with kick-off set for 21:00 CEST. The match is being played away from Betis’s regular ground, with the switch driven by ongoing stadium work in Seville.
Madridistas following the game, whether at the stadium, on television or by radio, can rely on the details below as the confirmed position for this fixture. As always with away fixtures affected by ground work, it is worth double-checking arrangements closer to matchday in case anything changes locally.
Kick-Off Time and Venue Details
Kick-off is set for 21:00 CEST in Spain. That works out at 20:00 BST for supporters in the UK and 15:00 ET for those following from the east coast of the United States. Fans planning to watch from further afield should convert from CEST to their own local time zone accordingly.
The match is being staged at the Estadio de La Cartuja in Seville rather than Real Betis’s usual Benito Villamarín. Redevelopment work continues at the Villamarín, so La Cartuja hosts the game instead, as it has done for other Betis fixtures during the project. Supporters travelling to Seville for the match should note the change of venue and plan their route to La Cartuja rather than the Villamarín, which remains closed while building work continues.
TV Channels and Live Stream Coverage
According to Marca listings and broadcast schedules, the game is being shown live in Spain on LaLiga TV via Movistar Plus+. Radio coverage in Spain runs on Radio MARCA for supporters who prefer commentary over a screen.
These broadcast details apply to the Spanish market and may vary by region. Supporters outside Spain should check their own broadcaster’s schedule, since international rights are not confirmed within this listing. Regional broadcast deals for LaLiga fixtures can differ from country to country, so it remains sensible to confirm coverage with a local provider ahead of kick-off rather than assuming Spanish arrangements apply everywhere.
Where to Watch Real Betis vs Real Madrid
