Buy Real Betis vs Alaves tickets for the 2026/27 Season, with the La Liga fixture set for Sunday 3 January 2027 at Estadio La Cartuja in Seville. LaLiga has not yet confirmed the kick-off time, so buyers planning flights, rail journeys or an overnight stay should treat the date as set while keeping the matchday schedule flexible until the final television selections are published.

Betis are using La Cartuja as their home while the Benito Villamarín is rebuilt, which changes the buying picture for this meeting. The temporary ground holds about 70,000 after its 2025 football conversion, giving buyers more possible inventory than the old setup while still concentrating demand around the stronger central areas. Supporters comparing Real Betis tickets can compare the available sections, quantities and delivery formats before deciding whether this January match fits their trip.
This is Matchday 18 of the 2026/27 league calendar and the first weekend of league football after the turn of the year. The timing matters for travelling buyers because January schedules can be affected by broadcast choices and cup commitments, even when the round date is already published. Keep the ticket listing, travel booking and final match time aligned before setting a fixed arrival plan.
This fixture combines a large Seville home crowd with a visiting club whose away allocation is much smaller than the overall capacity. Alavés supporters who want to follow their side south are working from a controlled visiting section rather than the full stadium inventory, while Betis buyers have more choice across the home areas. Anyone comparing Alaves tickets should therefore separate away-designated listings from general home seating before judging price or availability.
The January date also sits in a part of the season where buying behaviour can change quickly. Some buyers commit well in advance because they are building a Seville weekend around the match. Others wait for the kick-off time before paying for transport. That split means inventory can move in waves rather than in one steady direction, particularly when the final time is announced.
La Cartuja's scale does not mean every category remains easy to buy. Central Tribuna positions, lower side-on rows and grouped seats can thin out before higher or more angled areas. A buyer who only needs one seat usually has more flexibility than a party of four, because adjacent groups are harder to replace once a suitable listing is sold.
The visiting section is another pressure point. LaLiga match reports for Betis home fixtures place visiting supporters in Gol Nord, with sector 323 used as the segregated away area during the 2026/27 season. The exact allocation can vary by match, so the listing description should still take priority over a general stadium guide.
For a standard league match, the sensible buying decision is less about predicting a perfect low point and more about matching seat, quantity and price. If a listing already gives you the right supporter area, enough seats together and a price inside your budget, waiting for a theoretical drop also means accepting the risk that the same combination will disappear.
Yes. Buyers can use a secondary marketplace without holding a Real Betis socio membership or an Alavés season pass. Club sales still prioritise members, season-ticket holders and other eligible groups, so open-sale availability can be narrower than the stadium capacity suggests, especially for particular seating areas.
For Betis supporters, the move to a 70,000-seat stadium has created more physical capacity than the club had at the Benito Villamarín, but a large share of desirable inventory is still controlled by season-ticket and member demand. Marketplace listings are useful for visitors who want to secure a seat before the club's public windows are clear or who need a specific quantity together.
For Alavés followers, access and supporter placement are separate questions. A buyer may be able to purchase a resale listing without club membership, but that does not make every part of La Cartuja appropriate for away support. If you plan to wear Alavés colours, sing with the travelling support or attend as part of an away group, choose a listing clearly identified for the visiting allocation.
Home-area listings should be treated as home seating. Do not assume that a side-on or behind-goal ticket can be used interchangeably with the away block simply because it is available at a similar price. Supporter segregation is part of matchday security and the sector named on the issued ticket determines the area you should use.
Non-members should read the full listing before payment, particularly the section name, quantity, delivery method and any restrictions on supporter identity or colours. If the description is unclear, resolve that before buying rather than leaving a seating question until the turnstile.
Resale prices for the January 2027 fixture are driven by seat location, live demand, the final kick-off time, the league context and the hospitality level attached to the listing. Current 1BoxOffice guidance places ordinary Real Betis league inventory below the prices normally seen for the Gran Derbi or visits from the Spanish giants, but central areas and small groups together can still carry a premium. The ranges below are planning bands, not fixed quotes.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upper tier / less central | £45–£70 | Buyers prioritising lower entry cost | Higher rows and end sections usually offer more choice |
| Longside standard | £60–£100 | Balanced side-on views | Prices rise closer to halfway and in stronger rows |
| Lower tier / central | £75–£130+ | Buyers wanting proximity and a clearer angle | Grouped seats can command a premium |
| Premium seating | £110–£190+ | Extra comfort and preferred positioning | Confirm whether lounge access is actually included |
| Hospitality / VIP | £200–£600+ | Business hosting, occasions and premium matchdays | Dining, lounge access and seat type vary by package |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
The five drivers do not move independently. A central seat can stay expensive even if wider fixture demand is moderate, while a high row behind the goal may remain accessible until much later. The final kick-off time can also change the buyer pool because an afternoon slot suits more same-day travellers than a late evening match.
Quantity matters almost as much as location. One seat can appear below the normal range because a seller is trying to clear a single position, while four adjacent seats can cost more per person because there are fewer comparable groups. If your party can split into two pairs, compare both configurations before deciding whether sitting as one group is worth the difference.
Do not compare prices without reviewing the section and delivery notes. A lower figure can represent a much higher row, a more angled position or a supporter area that does not suit you. The useful comparison is the total matchday value of the listing, including where you sit, how many seats are together and how the ticket reaches you.
La Cartuja was reshaped for football in 2025, with the athletics track removed and new lower seating bringing spectators closer to the pitch. Before choosing a listing, use the Estadio La Cartuja seating plan to compare the main side, opposite side and goal-end positions around the bowl.
The venue itself hosts Betis league and European fixtures as well as major events in Seville. Buyers who want to compare what else is listed at the same ground can use the Estadio La Cartuja tickets listing, while keeping this match's supporter designation separate from other events.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tribuna central | Clear side-on views and premium positioning | Highest | Central main-stand blocks suit buyers who want to read both halves evenly |
| Tribuna wings | Covered side-on viewing at a lower premium | High | The angle increases as you move towards either goal |
| Lateral lower | Proximity without central Tribuna pricing | Mid to high | The 2025 conversion reduced the old track gap from the pitch |
| Gol Sur | Home atmosphere and organised Betis support | Mid to lower | Gol Sur contains the main home singing area, so expect a livelier matchday |
| Upper goal areas | Lower-priced access with a full view of the bowl | Lower | Distance is greater, but elevation helps with the overall shape of play |
| Gol Nord, visiting sector 323 | Alavés supporters | Fixture dependent | Use an away-designated listing and the entrance instructions issued with the ticket. Away colours are most appropriate inside the segregated visiting allocation |
Neutral buyers and first-time visitors usually get the clearest all-round view from the side stands. Buyers who care more about atmosphere than geometry may prefer the goal ends, while anyone attending with Alavés support should prioritise the visiting sector rather than trying to save money in a home-designated area.
Height changes the experience in a stadium this size. Lower rows bring the near touchline and goalmouth closer, but higher positions can make patterns of play easier to follow. If two listings are similarly priced, compare vertical position as well as the stand name because the difference between a low and high row can be more noticeable than a small shift along the same side.
La Cartuja's revised football configuration means older photographs showing a wide athletics track no longer describe the current viewing distance. Buyers should use the current seating layout rather than pre-2025 images when judging proximity. The listing's block information remains the final reference for the ticket you are actually buying.
Premium inventory at La Cartuja sits mainly around the Tribuna side, where buyers can find central seats, shared lounges and private hospitality formats. The stadium was built for major events and its premium areas were strengthened as part of the football conversion, but inclusions differ considerably between listings.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Premium central seat | Supporters wanting comfort without a full dining package | Stronger Tribuna positioning and upgraded seating where stated |
| Shared lounge access | Couples, small groups and business guests | Indoor pre-match space with catering or drinks according to the listing |
| Hospitality with dining | Celebrations and client hosting | Meal service paired with a central covered match seat |
| Private box | Corporate groups and larger parties | Private space, hosted service and match seating subject to package terms |
Read the inclusions line by line. One premium listing may provide only a better seat, while another can add lounge access, food, drinks or a separate hospitality reception point. A similar title does not guarantee a similar package, so compare the stated benefits rather than assuming every VIP option is interchangeable.
Hospitality can be useful for a January match because indoor pre-match space reduces the amount of time a group has to coordinate outside the stadium. It also suits buyers who value a central view and a defined arrival process more than the noise of the home end. For travelling Alavés supporters, however, premium home-area packages may not be appropriate if the package restricts visiting colours or support.
Review dress guidance and supporter conditions before travelling. Premium areas can apply different standards from general admission and some listings may carry restrictions that matter to a visiting supporter. If your priority is openly supporting Alavés, the designated away allocation is usually the clearer option.
Delivery depends on the ticket type attached to the listing rather than one universal method for the whole fixture. Digital formats are common, but buyers should not assume immediate delivery simply because payment has been completed. The fulfilment window shown with the order is the useful reference.
| Delivery Type | What to Confirm |
|---|---|
| Mobile transfer | Confirm the email or ticketing account used for transfer and complete any acceptance step before matchday |
| E-ticket or PDF | Follow the display or printing instructions and keep the barcode private |
| Mobile wallet or pass | Add the pass to the correct device and avoid screenshots if the entry code refreshes dynamically |
| Local collection or handover | Confirm the collection point, named attendee requirement and collection window before travelling to the stadium |
Read the listing notes before payment, bring valid photo identification and arrive with a charged phone if your ticket is digital. If an app, wallet or account is needed, set it up before leaving your accommodation rather than trying to complete registration at a busy stadium entrance.
Names can matter on some Spanish ticket formats, particularly in controlled supporter areas. Enter buyer details accurately and follow any instructions for assigning attendee names. Do not forward a barcode casually within a group because duplicate scans can create an avoidable entry problem.
Arrival time matters at a 70,000-seat ground. The access routes around Isla de La Cartuja become busier close to kick-off and the final time has not yet been set. Once the schedule is confirmed, work backwards from the stated gate and aim to be at the stadium early enough to resolve a ticket or security question without missing the start.

Step1
Open the fixture listing
Start with the live inventory for the match and compare how many seats are available in each area. Keep the 3 January date in mind and confirm whether the kick-off time has been added since your last visit.
Step2
Create your buyer account
If you are new to 1BoxOffice, create an account with accurate contact details so delivery messages and order updates reach the right person.
Step3
Choose the correct supporter area
Decide whether you want a Betis home section, a neutral-feeling side position or the designated Alavés allocation. Do not treat home and away areas as interchangeable.
Step4
Compare seat quantity
Confirm whether the listing supplies singles, a pair or a larger group together. If your party is flexible, compare one larger group against nearby pairs before paying a grouping premium.
Step5
Read every listing note
Confirm the stand, ticket format, supporter restrictions and delivery timing. This is also the point to confirm whether a premium listing includes hospitality or only a premium seat.
Step6
Review the final price
Compare the total cost with the seat location and quantity, not with another listing that may be in a different tier or section. Make sure the final amount fits the value you expect from the seat.
Step7
Complete secure payment
Enter the attendee and payment information carefully, then retain the order confirmation. If the match time changes later, keep the booking details with your travel records.
Step8
Follow delivery progress
Use track order to follow fulfilment, then complete any transfer or wallet step as soon as the ticket arrives.
Value is personal. A higher Tribuna seat can be worth more to a buyer who wants a full-pitch view, while a goal-end seat may suit someone who values atmosphere and a lower entry point. Set the priorities before comparing listings so price does not become the only measure.
There is no reliable rule that the final week will always be less expensive. New inventory can soften a category, but reduced supply can also push the remaining options higher. A buyer who already sees the correct section and quantity inside budget has a different risk calculation from someone who is highly flexible and willing to keep comparing options.
International buyers should build the trip around the published date but keep the hours around Sunday 3 January flexible until the kick-off time is confirmed. LaLiga has assigned the fixture to Matchday 18 at La Cartuja, but the current league listing does not show a final start time. Avoid a tightly timed arrival into Seville on matchday and leave enough margin for airport, rail and stadium transfers.
Digital delivery is usually the easiest format when travelling from abroad because it avoids dependence on a hotel reception or international courier window. If the listing uses local collection, confirm the location and opening time before you book a transport connection that reaches Seville late. Buyers requesting seats together should also choose a listing that states the required quantity rather than assuming separate singles will be moved together later.
Seville is a practical football destination for an overnight stay, but La Cartuja sits north-west of the historic centre rather than beside the main tourist streets. Public transport and road traffic can become crowded around major events, so the final match time should shape when you leave the centre. After the game, allow extra time before any rail or flight connection instead of planning around the ninety-minute match alone.
If the fixture time moves after you have bought, the match ticket normally remains tied to the fixture rather than to your original travel plan. Flexible hotel and transport terms are therefore useful until the final schedule is published. Keep reviewing the league calendar and your order communications rather than relying on the time shown when you first began planning.
Only one previous La Liga meeting between these clubs has been played at La Cartuja with Betis as the designated home side, a 1-0 Betis win on 22 August 2025. Because that exact venue-and-host scope contains fewer than five matches, the history sections below use the required fallback: all La Liga meetings between Real Betis and Deportivo Alavés across both venues, while excluding cup ties and second-tier matches.
That wider league series stretches back to 1933 and contains long gaps when the clubs were in different divisions. The modern run has been far more regular, with both sides trading home wins, away wins and draws rather than producing one fixed pattern. It also includes Betis' 4-0 home win in January 2022 and Alavés' 4-1 win in Seville in April 2017, which remain the largest league victories for each side in this matchup.
The January 2027 fixture is distinctive because the venue is now part of the story. The clubs have decades of league history, but almost all of it was played at Benito Villamarín, Mendizorroza or earlier grounds. Buyers are therefore watching an established league pairing in a setting that is still new to this head-to-head.
The exact La Cartuja scope contains only one prior league meeting, so this table widens to all 30 La Liga meetings between the sides through 25 January 2026. Cup matches, promotion play-offs and second-tier meetings are excluded. The totals below are calculated from the match-by-match league record in the next section.
| Metric | Total |
|---|---|
| Matches played | 30 |
| Real Betis wins | 13 |
| Alavés wins | 9 |
| Draws | 8 |
| Real Betis goals | 34 |
| Alavés goals | 28 |
| Largest Real Betis win | 4-0, 18 January 2022 |
| Largest Alavés win | 4-1, 30 April 2017 |
| First La Liga meeting in scope | 15 January 1933 |
| Most recent meeting in scope | 25 January 2026 |
Head-to-head source note: La Liga results were verified against StatMuse, Transfermarkt, FBref, BDFutbol and worldfootball.net. The 30-match league record is 13 Real Betis wins, 9 Alavés wins and 8 draws, with a 34-28 goal total.
The record shows a Betis advantage, but not a one-sided series. Nine Alavés victories across 30 league meetings are enough to make the visiting side's history relevant, while eight draws underline how often the matchup has stayed close. The last six league meetings before the 2026/27 season produced three draws and three decisive results, with both clubs taking wins.
Because the venue-specific sample at La Cartuja contains only one previous match, this list covers every La Liga meeting between Real Betis and Alavés, newest first. The Venue column is included to make the widened scope explicit and to separate the 2025 La Cartuja meeting from earlier games in Seville and Vitoria-Gasteiz.

Match record source note: scores and dates were verified with StatMuse, Transfermarkt and worldfootball.net, with FBref and BDFutbol used to verify venues where available. Only La Liga meetings are included.
The table also explains why the sparse-history fallback is necessary. La Cartuja appears once because Betis only began using it as their temporary league home in the current redevelopment period. The January 2027 match will therefore add a second league result at this venue while extending a top-flight series that began more than nine decades earlier.
Yes. Resale listings can be purchased without a Betis socio membership, but you should still choose a section that matches your supporter status and read any restrictions attached to the ticket.
Buy when the available section, quantity and price meet your needs. Waiting for the final kick-off time can improve travel certainty, but it can also reduce your choice of grouped or central seats.
Recent LaLiga match reports place the visiting allocation in Gol Nord, with sector 323 used for away supporters. The exact match allocation can change, so follow the sector and entrance details on the issued ticket.
The delivery method is shown with the listing and can include mobile transfer, a digital ticket, a wallet pass or local collection. Follow the stated fulfilment instructions rather than assuming immediate delivery.
Yes. Overseas buyers can order through the marketplace, but travel should stay flexible until LaLiga confirms the kick-off time for 3 January 2027.
