How to watch today's Real Betis vs Girona La Liga game: Live stream, TV channel, and start time

Real Betis will kick off their 2024-25 La Liga campaign on Thursday, welcoming Girona to the Benito Villamarín.

Los Verdiblancos will want to improve on last season's seventh-place position, while the White and Reds will face the arduous task of reproducing last season's top-four performance.

After enjoying three consecutive seasons finishing in the top six, the hosts fell short of that mark in the 2023-24 campaign, ultimately finishing just behind Real Sociedad in seventh place. Betis will be looking to reclaim their spot among the league's elite and improve upon last year's results.

Having qualified for European competition in just their fourth season in the top flight, the Blanquivermells are now set to compete against some of the continent's most prestigious clubs in the Champions League.

Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
