Joselu has already converted one of his chances and after the first half Real leads 1-0. I also expect Real to win +2 goals (since I predicted their victory 3-0), but I can’t say that they will strain too much to achieve this score. At the moment, bookmakers see the most likely score as 2-0 in Real Madrid's favor.
Oh, I see that the hosts made a triple substitution at half-time, this could liven up the game! I hope for an open game (then Real will definitely score at least 2 more).
So the bookmakers have been right at the moment, if it stays like this, then the result will be 2:0. But there are still 10 minutes to play and Real Madrid have often scored in the last few minutes. If it stays like this, Real will be back on first place in La Liga with a 2-point lead. It is still unbelievable that Girona are playing so well for so long and have a real chance of winning the league, also a better chance than FC Barcelona at the moment... crazy. Sunday is a hard game for Real, they have to play vs Atletico again, they just recently lost there game in the spanisch cup.
Yes, the bookmakers turned out to be right (and I wasn’t, damn how many predictions for Real’s 3-0 victory I’ve already burned), but I wouldn’t say that it was logical - Real missed too many scoring opportunities for the 2-0 score to be considered “fair”. I’ll have to look at the expected goals statistics in this game later, I’m sure it’s more than 3.
Joselu scored a double, now he has 7 goals in La Liga, very good, I remember how he complained in an interview that he was suffering greatly from the fact that he could not be as effective as he should be in Real Madrid. I hope this gives him confidence.
