SPAIN: La Liga

Well done by Villarreal

This Saturday will be special for football fans – Real Madrid will meet with Barcelona at Santiago Bernabeu stadium. This battle of these two teams always are something different.

First of all, that will be very important match for Real Madrid. Los Blancos are currently trailing Barcelona by 11 points (Real have one match in hand), and might have to wave goodbye to their chances of winning the league if they fail to win here. So, that will be more than important game.

There’s no doubt that Barcelona wants to win against Real Madrid. They want to have safe points different in the table. But the points is that they can lost the match at Santiago Bernabeu and they still will have a good chances to win the champions title.
Both teams are in good shape – both of them won the four times in the last five games. Real Madrid has four wins a row while Barcelona - three.

Zinedine Zidane’s side know exactly how to score against Barcelona – they have scored at least two goals in the last four meetings against Catalans. Bet365 give a 1.57 odds that Real Madrid will score more than one goal today, so there’s a chance that they will do that.

Of course, we can’t write off Barcelona team chances to score the same number of goals. By the way, Bet365 give a 1.87 odds that we’ll see more than three goals in El Clasico clash.

The last meeting in the La Liga against Real and Barcelona was a really brilliant – both teams together scored five goals and Barcelona won the match on result 3-2.

Catalans know very well how to score goals at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium. I guess we’ll see not less than four goals again.

As many knows, the matches between this two teams always being a really tough for the referees because there’s too much emotions.

Seventy yellow cards (7.0 on average) have been awarded in the last ten games in the league, along with five reds. Of course, Sergio Ramos is a player, who has the most chances to get more than one yellow card: the passionate defender has racked up six yellow and three red cards in the last ten meetings in the league.

As I said, that will be very important game and Real Madrid have nothing to lose. I bet that we‘ll see more than six yellows cards between these two teams and Bet365 give a 1.83 odds for that.

I didn't believe that Espanyol will win against Atl Madrid but they did it

Philippe Coutinho, new FC Barcelona player

The player comes to the Club for the remainder of the season and five more, and will have a buyout clause of 400 million euros



FC Barcelona and Liverpool FC have reached an agreement for the transfer of Philippe Coutinho. The player will sign a contract for the remainder of the season and five more, and will have a buyout clause of 400 million euros.

We will shortly inform you of the details of the player's arrival and presentation.

The midfielder arrives at FC Barcelona after demonstrating his class as a player with Liverpool and the Brazilian national side.Born on 12 June, 1992 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Phillipe Coutinho is one of the most talented midfielders in the world with the potential to get even better.

The Brazilian has shown his talent and class at the highest level with Premier League club Liverpool and with the Brazilian national side.

Coutinho began his footballing journey in his home town with Vasco de Gama. At the age of just 18 he moved to Europe to begin a new stage of his career at Serie A giants Inter Milan with whom he would go to make his Champions League debut.

After two and half seasons in Milan and six months in Barcelona with the city’s other club Espanyol, Coutinho made the move to the Premier League when he signed for Liverpool in January 2013. With the five times European Champions, the Brazilian quickly established himself as a key player at the club.

A versatile attacking force

The Brazilian is a versatile presence in the squad as his technical ability and vision allow him to play in midfield. His attacking instincts also mean that he is equally at home in a more advanced role on the wing. Coutinho is quick and always willing to take on defenders and his nose for goal is undeniable as he scored 13 times for Liverpool last season.

A Brazilian international since his debut in 2010, he played in the Copa América in 2015 and 2016 for his country as well as playing a vital part in helping the ‘canarinha’ qualify for the 2018 World Cup finals in Russia.

Meanwhile Real is chilling lol

I read that probably Real are waiting upcoming summer and possibly for the Neymar, Icardi

I don't know... I just don't believe that Neymar would join Real

Coutinho joined Barcelona. What do you think about this move?

Coutinho still injured and he will be out at least 3 weeks. Of course it's a good signing and Barcelona will be much stronger but overall it's sad to see that kind of prices for these type of players.

Monday it's not good day for betting but Espanyol knows how to play in the road and the if they will now win then probably would be draw which is still fine for me.

Malaga - Espanyol

PICK: ESPANYOL (+0) @2.070 10/10

Malaga meeting Espanyol at home in game from Spain Primera Division. Today my bet is for the better team of the both and the first win on Espanyol this season away from home - moment is a good for this meeting the worse team so far in Primera. Home team is with records of the season overall so far 3 w 2 d and 12 l. Road team is with records of the season overall so far 5 w 5 d and 7 l. At home hosts is with records of 2 w 2 d and 4 l, while away from home guests is 0 w 4 d and 4 l.

I agree with you. It is crazy how much money they spend on players

Malaga made 17 shots while Espanyol only 6. But Espanyol still won the game

Real lost against Villarreal yesterday...

Real Madrid has its fewest points (32) through 18 matches since 2005-06, the final season of current club president Florentino Pérez's first term. He resigned his post in February 2006.

In one side I can understand Real Madrid because after these two brilliant seasons it's getting hard to be motivated for every single (not knock out) games and of course it's hard to defend any titles in the next years. When you are playing match against Villareal and you are -16 points behind Barcelona it's getting much harder. Of course Cristiano Ronaldo having difficult times and for me personal he's even not in the top 3 best players list at the moment. Real need changes starting from Ronaldo. There is 2 options in my opinion for Ronaldo. 1. give more touches in the box or in finishing 2. change club.
Of course there is Champions league and Copa Del Rey left but I don't see Real climbing to the CL trophy once again especially if the Ronaldo will continue to be 1st option on the offense.

Real Sociedad scored the first two goals but Barca won the game 2:4 😁

Well played by Sevilla against Espanyol (0-3)

Some numbers by Lionel Messi this season in LaLiga

La Liga - Messi is currently 1st in goals scored (19), 1st in assists (9), 1st in dribbles (5.8 ), 2nd in key passes (2.9), has most MotM (15) and best rating (8.90)

He is one of the best players for sure. Thanks for the info!

It looks really bad 😄
