In front of almost 60,000 spectators, Real Betis defeated Real Sociedad 3-1 at La Cartuja to earn an outstanding triumph. Brais Méndez equalised with a beautiful finish after Cucho Hernández had taken the lead early. But in the second half, Betis took a clear advantage thanks to an own goal from Álex Remiro and a third goal from Pablo Fornals to end the match. Betis moves into the top four of La Liga as a result, but Sociedad's patchy start under Sergio Francisco persists.

Ander Barrenetxea’s neat play down the right freed Méndez, who fired left-footed into the top corner to level at 1-1 on 13 minutes. Sociedad gained confidence and created chances through Mikel Oyarzabal and Pablo Marín, but Pau López was equal to their efforts.
