Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti pointed out the difficulty of the confrontation that will bring his team to Real Betis in the fourth round of the Spanish league.

“We feel good, we had a good time at the Bernabeu last season and we hope to do it again this season,” the Real Madrid coach said at a press conference regarding his return to the Santiago Bernabeu.

He added: “We are in for a difficult match against an opponent who wants to compete and our ideas have not changed. We want to keep the same identity by presenting a higher level of attack in our stadium. Betis are having a good period and have confidence, but we are also in a good form, now the season starts, fighting matches start every 3 days.

He continued: “Every match is important, but not decisive. There are teams that have started the season well and others that have suffered, and there will be suffering for everyone, but the most important thing is to get out of it quickly.”

And on the possibility of winning titles: “Each season has its own circumstances, I think there will be more competition in the league, and there is no bright candidate in the Champions League yet.”

On the condition of the Belgian Eden Hazard, he concluded: “He is doing well, but 3 matches are not enough to evaluate him, I am sure that he will play an important role this season.”
