Easy money today in La Liga. All home teams won as expected, Mallorca, Barcelona and Valencia. I was expecting Barcelona to score more goals but this is enough for over 2.5 goals bets before the game. Some live bets may be ruined though. Barca and Lewandowski's rise go on. Elche wasn't an opponent that could make trouble for Barca, an early red card made things easier for them. Even if they didn't see them, they still don't have chance against this Barca.
Gavi played only in second half but his contribution was better than Kessie. Ansu Fati is slowly warming up every week, he will be better when he gets more time. Barca passed an easy obstacle and took the lead again but they have to wait for Atletico Madrid to stop Real Madrid to stay in that place.

It's like you say, there are no surprises, but you have to take into account that at least Barcelona cannot fail against these teams, and it's not that these teams are weak, Barcelona has a moral and obligatory duty to win or win against these teams, because there is a large millionaire that was spent and they have to be held accountable because otherwise this team will go overboard, right now they have to win or win, and I think that for now there is no problem, the problem will be when they have They have to be fighting for the first places both in the league and in the UCL, and it really won't be easy for them, Real Madrid is playing a lot.

In this match I agree that this will belong to Barcelona because indeed Mallorca is still quite difficult to steal a win with their current squad which faces Barcelona with a squad that is certainly better. But for the title at the end of the season I don't think they can win at the moment. The league is still quite far away and this can still be said to be the start of the season because it can still be counted on the fingers. Don't forget the current defending champion, Madrid, who still has a good performance so there's no need to be so confident for Barcelona to become champions for now.

For to be champion at the end of the season, each team must consider every match as a final
And Barcelona cannot slip up against a team like Mallorca if they are to move to the top of the table and leapfrog Real Madrid.
That is certainly a motivation for Xavi's squad. Moreover, Mallorca could be without Kadewere, Dominik Greif, and Amath Ndiaye due to injure
But Xavi also has to maintain the physical fitness of his players because in the middle of this week will face Inter Milan in the Champions League.

A visit to Mallorca's headquarters will definitely be a big advantage for Barcelona, at least being able to feel sitting at the top of the standings even if only for one night, because real Madrid also faces the Osasuna club, Real Madrid's opportunity to reclaim the top of the standings is again open, but what happened The spotlight is the Champions League match between Barcelona vs Inter, because if Barcelona are not able to steal points at home to Inter then automatically Barcelona's chances of qualifying from the group stage are very difficult, because the only way to qualify from the group stage is to beat Inter Milan.

On the one hand, I understand very well the need that Barcelona has to take some good steps if it wants to win, it needs it, not only this game but all of them, I could say that we are advocating because a team that made big purchases and with little money (compared with the other teams) is the one that comforted him the most and it would really be a waste of money, time and many things that would give bad results, for me Barcelona's need to win is very great, on the other hand, Real Madrid does not he did no transfers and remains with a team that won the league and the last UCL, I think they are still comfortable as they are until early 2021, when they will see the emergence of new stars and thus be able to buy and make a level 1A team.

The match looks to be in the favor of Real Madrid on paper, the stats show that both teams have a history when it comes to head to head meetings and Real Madrid have always been the better side. But I wouldn’t underrate them, Osasuna have also shown strength sometimes, holding Madrid to a goalless draw which means Osasuna have a chance to get a draw especially now that they have been in very fine form in the league.

I can't deny that Osasuna has done a great job, because their last games have shown a high level in terms of comprehension and scoring, I've also seen that they are more solid in defense, that speaks well, no, I would complain about a good tie with Real Madrid, but now Real Madrid's need to be one of the best makes it even more difficult, however I don't see strong rivals at the moment for both Real Madrid and Barcelona, I think these two teams will be the ones What to talk about from now on, well, if they continue as they are and showing that football, I think that will be the case, I see no doubt about it.

I will be very surprised if today's Athletic Bilbao - Almeria match ends with a result other than a clear victory for the hosts. Athletic started the season brilliantly and it seems that if he stays in his present form longer, he has a chance to fight for cup places. Currently, they are 4th in the league, but it should be noted that so far they have only played against rivals from the bottom of the table. Almeria, however, is one of the weaker teams in the league, they lost the last 3 matches and I think that they will not get any points today either.

Bilbao are currently performing very well and obviously in this match it will actually be very easy and the bookies have also thought about and favored them over Almeria in this match.
Actually the odds of 1.38 are still a bit better for them now because looking at the statistics in the last 5 matches of the two clubs and the goal ratio created by Bilbao it is clear that this is something very good. I would bet on Bilbao and possibly bet with Bilbao being able to score 2 goals or more.

In this match, I am willing to bet on Athletico Bilbao to win. My prediction for this match is that Bilbao will win 2-1. Almeria is not the strongest team. They have lost their last three matches. I don't think they can beat a strong team like Bilbao in such poor form. Also, in the last 5 matches between these two teams, Bilbao has won 4 matches and one match has been drawn. If Bilbao can win today's match, they will be able to move to the third place in the points table.

Agree with you. Actually comparing Almeria with Athletico Bilbao is not right. Athletico Bilbao are far ahead of Almeria. Although I can't say how many goals will be scored, I can say that Atletico Bilbao will win by a big margin. Almeria will want to at least draw the match. Good luck to both teams.

Well I think we all agree that Atletic Bilbao is well above Almería, although these games are of little relevance to some, I think Atletic is doing a good job, their players are focusing on putting up a good attack, and they have everything ready to give more surprises, it is not that Almería is an easy team, if they are in the league and in the first division it is because they can and have the level to get any score, however Almería knows that they have to play with everything so as not to be so far behind because it is dangerous, a few years ago atletic Bilbao was a very, very good team, they had a great level, maybe now they are taking it up again.

On the other hand, something of interest for Real Madrid fans:

Personally, I really liked Valverde's performance, he has had great interaction, very good goals and I think that is what makes him make the difference, he is a player who has grown a lot, well but playing alongside a great like Anyone Benzema raises his level and technique, and a club like Real Madrid makes you famous.
