El Gran Derbi, between Sevilla and Real Betis, is widely regarded as the best derby in Spain. The local rivalry between the Andalucian clubs creates a unique atmosphere, when fans are in the stadium, but this weekend it underwhelmed in an empty Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium.

Elsewhere, Karim Benzema salvaged Real Madrid from an embarrassing loss to Elche with a brace that included one of the goals of the season so far: a left footed strike from outside the box after a one-two with Rodrygo.
