the 4-0 victory over getafe successfully put barcelona in second place in the current la liga standings and this is really good. raphinha managed to make 1 goal and 1 assist, he performed extraordinary, i am optimistic about what barcelona will achieve this season, even though they are not able to overtake madrid because the point difference is quite large, but i see barcelona is still a strong team.
while atletico madrid were held to a draw by almeria, atletico madrid failed to maintain the game they had mastered since the start of the match, this made atletico have to settle for remaining in 4th position.
Changes in the standings may only be temporary because Girona has not played their match against Rayo Vallecano, while for the top of the standings will not change for a while even though Real Madrid has not played their match this week, but the victory achieved by Barcelona is very impressive because Getafe is not a team that is too bad that's why they can be in the top 10, which is very surprising how Atletico Madrid only draws with Almeria the bottom team this season, it is unfortunate that Atletico Madrid failed to defend their lead twice because Almeria could always reply to Atletico's goals to equalize and get a point that might not help them to get out of the relegation zone this season.
Giron will face Rayo Vallecano, which puts the home team as favorites, but being wary of Rayo is a must because their opponents managed to hold Real Madrid to a draw last week, although on paper Girona team is much better and the bookmakers give odds @ 1.62 and the away team @ 5.00, maybe Girona will return to productivity in this match by scoring more than two goals.
While Real Madrid will face Sevilla, a team that is quite safe from the relegation zone but still continues to struggle outside the top 10, Sevilla may not be a tough opponent for Real Madrid, not only because they are a weak team but Sevilla always faces difficulties to beat Real Madrid so this will be a match that gives Real Madrid three points.
