The hosts have not won any of their last five games against Real Madrid in La Liga, all five since Manuel Pellegrini's arrival on the bench, alternating between defeat and a draw each time (D2 L3).
Meanwhile, Los Blancos have won five of their last six visits to Real Betis in La Liga (L1), including a 6-1 triumph in October 2016, one of just three games in which Betis have conceded six home goals in their top-flight history.
They are trailing by seven points to leaders Barcelona and only a win would help their cause.
On the other hand, Betis head into this fixture on the back of a thrilling 3-2 victory over Elche.
They have won three successive league games and are breathing down the shoulders of Atletico Madrid for a Champions League spot.
If they are able to stage an upset on Sunday they will leapfrog Simeone's men on the table, given the Rojiblancos go down to Sevilla.
