I can't rate Madrid now because they are suppose to be a dominating force in la Liga but for now they need to face a more stronger team and show this same performance and even more before I can say they did pretty well. As of last game against Osasuna I don't think Mbappe was playing like someone who have gotten used to the league and if not for the penalty which I believe many of the fans wasn't pleased about, I don't think they would have gotten a win and this game was like against a lower division team and the goals should have been more than 3 goals.
Madrid attack isn't as clinical as I expected, more work need to be done and if they feel they can beat the champions with this leg I'm seeing I think Barcelona will beat them again home and away even on a neutral ground.
The La Liga is Barcelona vs Real Madrid. There are no teams as strong as the two. Right now both have the same exact points and goal difference. The difference arise when these teams loses points to some random teams. There's no certainty which these team would be. Barcelona nearly lost some points against Levante. As the two teams has yet to play against each other and the same team, its still difficult to decide which of them are doing better.
Barcelona still is missing Lewandowski and the news is he has recovered and going to play next game. This could further boost the confidence of Barcelona.
For now it doesn't matter who's the team that will beat either of the two teams, talking Barcelona and Madrid, the thing is who's set to dominate the la Liga this season and you'd agree with me that is Barcelona who have everything right in their two games this campaign, even if other teams who have won two games are on the line I still see Barcelona as the one on top of them all, not because of them topping the table, we can't say same to Madrid even if they have 3 pts from two wins, is their performance which made me say Barcelona's performance is far way better than that of Madrid.
I'm not a fan of any of the two but you'd agree with me that Barcelona are doing better than Madrid if you want to use stats in the last two games it shows and believe me when I say this, if it was Madrid who was on the losing end against Levante I don't see them coming back and getting a win in that encounter and that alone says it all, we don't need to wait for both teams to play each other before we say who's on the right path, no, Barcelona are more coordinated than Madrid especially their front line without Lewandowski on the pitch.
