Not just in La Liga but regardless of this league, the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona is very well known for all over the world and this is important for both teams to win this match, regardless of the result they get in La Liga or the Champions League, winning the El Clasico match is a great achievement, however, they usually say El Clasico is just a normal match to decrease the pressure on their players but I don't think if that's right.
For Barcelona, this going to be harder than El Clasico because they should play against PSG. Also, Real Madrid will play against Manchester City which is another hard game for Real Madrid and this can make the El Clasico match harder for both teams the schedule of the games.

Former Manchester City Coach and his lads did well as they dominated a major part of the game winning ball possession in this game tonight.
They did try to bang in goals in the first half but Celta Vigo was just too stable and stubborn at defending which finally went ahead to end as the both sides failed to score a single goal during the first half of the game.

Isco was instrumental for Betis tonight, though he didn't get to score or come close to scoring but regardless he had fun and also enjoyed himself while he played tonight.
He got to assist Nabil Fekir anyways tonight for that lovely goal.
The first goal was also set up by Bellerin for Miranda.

I admit that recently Betis has been very bad and also, in fact head to head Betis v Celta Vigo, in their last five matches, Celta Vigo has actually had good dominance. But yes, because I also consider their position in the standings where Celta Vigo is close to the relegation zone, then I think it will still be difficult for Celta Vigo to beat Betis in this match. Because of course, Betis will also try well to recover from four consecutive defeats lately. Therefore, I personally still believe that Betis has a chance to win, and I also not miss to choosing Betis in this match.

But for me personally if it is at Real Madrid's own home in this match even if I lose in my opinion it will not change the situation of Real Madrid because the difference in points owned by Real Madrid with Barcelona is quite far, the difference of 8 points is very much and if you lose this match only leaves 5 points difference again and that is enough to get a victory on the side of the match that will be lived by Real Madrid to get this season in La Liga.

In addition, we believe that in this home match real madrid will definitely get a victory, with the current situation of madrid it is possible to get a victory, so I think betting on real madrid even once is not a problem for victory, except maybe if the match results in a draw it will be a different scenario in el classico.
The Champions League hopes are high, but Manchester City are also quite strong under Guardiola, which requires a really reliable strategy.

Yes there are several factors to determine or predict the results of the match and usually like considering injured players who are absent in the match and now I see Atletico Madrid has no problem with injured players because even though there are some but it is not a major player while Girona also has no problem with any problem In the case of injured players.
In terms of head-to-head we can draw the conclusion that Atletico Madrid is superior to Girona even though there is always a surprise but in my opinion a surprise will no longer apply to Girona because it is too fortunate to get a big 3 position in the point table.
Atletico Madrid is currently in a very good condition despite having a 2x defeat in the last 5 matches and I am still sure that Atletico Madrid will win in the match tomorrow.

Of course, this is a very important match for both teams, especially in fighting for a position in the Champions League next season. However, regarding the statement that both teams have a 50/50 chance of winning the match. Maybe this could be right or could be wrong.

The game of football is very unpredictable, and there is always a chance that anything can happen on the field. However, while considering factors such as team condition, previous meetings, and other contexts, to see a more definite advantage of a team. You noted that Atletico Madrid leads the head-to-head results over Girona, which is not surprising considering Girona's modest pedigree. However, keep in mind that the team's fate and conditions can always change. As you have said, it is very likely that this season Girona will show some changes for the better regarding the quality and performance of their team, and if so, that could make the results of previous direct meetings irrelevant in terms of predicting the outcome of the next match.

Tomorrow game will be a crucial game for both teams and I think it will be difficult for us to predict the outcome of the game, so far both teams in my opinion have a 50/50 chance of winning the game, although indeed Atletico who play at home may be the favourites in the match, because in head to head indeed Atletico Madrid were able to dominate the victory over Girona and I think that happened when Girona did not appear surprising Like this season, so for this season, of course, head to head it may not be a reference to outplay Atletico Madrid because increasing the quality of Girona at this time.

Both teams are currently in the top 4 or the Champions League zone next season, but I think in this case both teams still need a win to secure their position, so between the two it is clear that Atletico Madrid has a heavier burden compared to Girona, currently Atletico Madrid is under pressure from Bilbao who are behind them with a difference of 2 points in fourth place,  While Girona, who are ranked third, have a relatively safe distance from Atletico Madrid with 7 points.

I doubt Madrid will loss on their home match against Barcelona, I think el clasico has very crucial match for Real Madrid to make easily for winning La Liga in this season. If can defeat Barcelona with several matches left become easily and has many points gap for winning La Liga season 2023/24, but Madrid has to face Real Mallorca in this week and need to get three points if won't Barcelona keep close their points from Madrid.
I see with with several matches left not longer teams has chance for defeating Real Madrid, if can take three points against Barcelona too easy for winning La Liga with most of opponent left as bottom standings team position.
Optimistic for Real Madrid fans for winning La Liga tittle this season but its be perfect if can winning champion league tittle too by defeating Manchester City in second leg match.

Yeah actually Barcelona coach is the one behind the success of Barcelona because he was able to mold Barcelona from their bad state to the little achievement they have gotten now because if it wasn't for him Barcelona would have remained were they are during the early time of the season when they were going through challenges, perhaps that's why I always say that behind every good team there is always a good coach.

Although if Xavi will revived Barcelona the way he did when they were almost down in performance I wonder how far he would lead Barcelona on the next season because I have a strong feeling that under the coaching of Xavi Barcelona will surely go far more than the way they did on this season. However in terms of real Madrid one of the things I like about their current state now is that even if they lost the chance of becoming the champions League winner they will still have another trophy to fall back on.

I will never believe that Barcelona will have another chance to win the La Liga since they have made mistakes since the beginning of the season, and I do not believe Madrid will drop any points to keep Barcelona at the top of the league this season. Xavi can't win the league, but he still has the opportunity to win the Champions League because they perform very well against PSG, and I don't think psg can defeat them in the Camp Nou because Barcelona won't agree against psg to get the chance to win them and qualify to the next round, Real Madrid will not put in too much effort in the match against Mallorca tomorrow, but they will win the match, and I believe Ancelotti will not too put is key players in the match so that they won't get any injured in the game because if Ancelotti just do any mistakes and put is key players in tomorrow match and anything happens with the players, I don't think madrid can win Manchester City in the second leg, even Manchester City they next match is not a tough match and they won't risk any of they key players in the game.

Barcelona is actually behind Real Madrid with only eight points which actually mean that in the reaming seven matches to the end of the season, if Barcelona is able to have a winning streak where they get three wins in a row and real Madrid gets to loose three games in a row too then Real Madrid would possibly have a chance to be displaced by Barcelona and that will intensify the remaining four games to the end of the season.

I know Real Madrid at this point wouldn't want to be carefree enough to the point where they will be suffering such loss at once so most likely they would rather make sure they get a draw than a loss but that too isn't safe enough because Barcelona is gradually beginning to show some kind of strength and building up of form so Real Madrid need not relax if not they could get pressured or in worse case get displaced because if Barcelona gets four wins in a row and Madrid is unable to replicate same there would be some kind of pressure a d threat around the possibilities of them winning the trophy.

In Essence I'm only trying to see the possibilities around Barcelona been able to still have a chance at the trophy because their point difference doesn't really appear to be so much that  Madrid could be relaxed with the remaining seven games and still get an opportunity to win the trophy regardless of the difference because if Barcelona gets a winning streak up to the next five games and Madrid doesn't do same, then the gap will be come even closer that the rest two matches could become a determinant to winning the trophy.

Real Betis vs Celta Vigo

Real Betis StartXI: 4-2-3-1
Rui Silva; Héctor Bellerín; Germán Pezzella; Chadi Riad; Juan Miranda; Guido Rodríguez; Johnny; Pablo Fornals; Isco; Ayoze Pérez; Willian José

Celta Vigo StartXI: 3-4-3
Vicente Guaita; Óscar Mingueza; Jailson; Carlos Domínguez; Javier Manquillo; Fran Beltrán; Hugo Sotelo; Hugo Álvarez; Iago Aspas; Jørgen Strand Larsen; Jonathan Bamba

Celta Vigo have more record of wins against Real Betis it almost four consecutive meetings but home and away and i don't expect anything but victory for Celta Vigo again because Real Betis are seriously not doing well, Real Betis had faced four consecutive lost which is a sign of underperformed, there inconsistency will affect them in this game, currently Celta Vigo are far better than Real Betis and can continue with their winning record, but who know they will be change of luck.

This round, there will be an interesting match between Atletico Madrid home against Girona.
Atletico Madrid are far by 7 points from Girona and a victory could reduce the gap but essentially keep them away from Athletic Bilbao just behind them, so they wouldn't drop from Champions League spots.
For Girona, every victory done will make them more secure to play Champions League next season.
Odds are better for Atletico Madrid and personally I go with a draw.

That's the point, there are still teams that are stronger than Barcelona this season, and that team is also playing better than Barcelona, so I won't expect much from Barcelona this season to win the title in the Champions League or La Liga. In La Liga itself, they are behind Real Madrid, and even though they will still meet and let's say Barcelona will win, they are still quite far from Real Madrid on points.
In my opinion, it would be a shame if Barcelona just let Xavi go, because Xavi actually gives a different touch and can show a good game even though it may still not live up to expectations. However, management should also realize that they cannot fulfill everything that Xavi needs in this season so that his performance is not optimal. If Xavi leaves then there is no guarantee that they will be successful with the new coach they will appoint.

I think it will be very difficult. Real Madrid has only lost once in 30 matches in the League. This proves that they are a solid squad and very difficult to beat. As far as I remember, Barcelona couldn't beat Madrid during their first El Classico this season. Madrid is 8 points ahead of Barcelona. If Barcelona wins and then they close the gap to 5 points, is there another club in La Liga that can beat Madrid? In the calendar that I saw after the match against Barcelona, Madrid no longer had an opponent who could beat him. So Barcelona's chances of winning the title this season are close to impossible.

Yes, that's true and of course this El Clasico match can reduce the gap between Barcelona and Madrid in points. You don't need to win big, just a narrow win by just one goal is more than enough to be able to reduce the difference in points and catch up, even though it might seem very difficult because Madrid Madrid always play consistently, even in the previous meeting, it was very easy for Madrid to beat Barcelona, that's why this season it seems like Madrid will definitely win the title in Laliga because it's hard to see them playing inconsistently at the end of the season, let alone experiencing consecutive defeats.

Girona might take the opportunity to overtake Barcelona if Barcelona suffers another defeat by Madrid, even so the competition at the top of the standings is very tight, but it seems that with the current point difference it seems complicated and it will be difficult for Girona especially Barcelona to catch up because Madrid is playing very consistently even though They have to divide their time to play in the UCL too, they still perform optimally to face every opponent, including in Laliga.

In the first half of the season, Barcelona were able to get a win against Osasuna to earn a ticket to the Spanish Cup finals where they had to face Real Madrid. Their game against Osasuna was a bit tough but in their best way, they were able to secure the win. Madrid themselves were able to deliver a good victory against Atletico Madrid and their subsequent performance in the contest is seemingly promising.

 The two rivals at the finals Real Madrid and Barcelona were tough on each other. Twas an El classico game and so the heat was intense. Even though Barcelona themselves weren't performing near to the rate of Madrid's, they still did their best to keep up in the game. They've only got to work on their confidence and charisma in the game, the UCL tournament is still heated up and they've got to prove their spot there too.

 In the second half of the season, there'd be another heated up el classico faceoff and as all time past encounters have been, the both teams would definitely put their best to the game. Real Madrid this season have been consistent in keeping their victory pace and for Barcelona, they've had flunctuating performances and really it'll be difficult to predict the outcome when they play away to Madrid in the el classico clash. Normally the probability of goals inflow is just in between as truthfully both teams' capacity are brought into light when they're up against themselves. It's a whole different atmosphere when the two teams face off.

Your thoughts on the Barcelona team do seem quite realistic, especially if we look at it from the perspective of Barcelona's strength and condition this season, which this season also competed with Atletico Madrid and Girona to get second place in the standings as it is now. Even though previously Barcelona often competed with its arch rival, Real Madrid, this season everyone can see how Real Madrid has left Barcelona behind in the League table. So it is quite natural not to expect more from Barcelona in the UCL because there are still several teams that are stronger than Barcelona.

At least, considering the situation and or the results of the matches they got in the Champions League, it is likely that Real Madrid will spend more energy later. But about Barcelona, on the other hand, will probably be able to save energy and will certainly have better preparation than Real Madrid, who still have to make greater efforts in the Champions League against Manchester City. With considerations like that, at least at this moment Barcelona will have a good chance not to lose against Real Madrid in the El Casico match later. But yes, because of course in this el clasico match has high prestige, Real Madrid will also continue to strive to play well and therefore, at least Real Madrid and Barcelona both have a chance to get good results in this el clasico match.

That's right, expecting Girona to be as good as they have been is asking too much. I think finishing third this season should be the only goal, and next season they will have to wait and see how it goes. I personally believe that the best thing that Girona can do is to keep being in the City group, that way the yare going to get the most out of scouting, and they could take advantage of financial situation as well.

They didn't come all the way here just so they could crumble one year later, they are going to keep being one of the good teams of the league without a doubt. I do not expect them to have a title, that would be way too much, but finishing in top four consistently, would mean that they are going to be making enough money to sustain this level of success.
