Inter Milan VS Real Betis

Inter Milan will complete their preparations for the 2026-27 Serie A campaign when they face Real Betis at Stadio Comunale San Nicola on Saturday. The Nerazzurri head into their final friendly in confident mood after beating Juventus 2-1, extending an unbeaten pre-season run that includes three victories and a draw from four matches. Cristian Chivu’s side have shown good defensive consistency, conceding exactly once in each game, although their attacking output has been more modest with only six goals scored. The encounter will be particularly important as Inter prepare to begin their Serie A title defence against Monza on August 22, with the club still looking to strengthen the squad further after adding seven players during the summer. Real Betis have also enjoyed an encouraging build-up to the new season following an impressive 2025-26 campaign that saw them finish fifth in La Liga and qualify for the Champions League for the first time in two decades. Manuel Pellegrini’s team have won five of their seven friendlies, with their only defeat coming alongside a draw against Bournemouth in their most recent outing. Their attacking strength has been particularly noticeable, with Betis scoring at least three goals in three pre-season matches and producing a memorable 3-1 victory over Premier League champions Arsenal. The Spanish side will now use their meeting with Inter as their final preparation before opening their league campaign against Real Sociedad on August 21.
