That is not a strange thing because indeed seeing from the conditions that occur at this time actually Atletico is the favourite but indeed we know sometimes when Sevilla has started to focus on just one competition then indeed they can do anything that we don't even predict.
Likewise with the match that happened today. Atletico are in control in terms of ball possession but indeed Sevilla are also smart in utilising momentum and their quick counter-attacks have proven to be quite troublesome.
Having taken the lead in the opening 15 minutes of the first half gave Sevilla more confidence going into today's match. Usually they are always carried away by the rhythm of the opponents they face but in this match their focus was quite good and Sevilla were not provoked by Atletico's intimidation which made them play very well and get 3 points until the game was over.
This is certainly a very positive thing for them because after all this is what they have to do to get out completely from the relegation zone that still threatens.

Little by little Sevilla began to find their rhythm again in the second half of this season. They have won 2 consecutive matches against Vallecano and Atletico Madrid, this has moved Sevilla one place above Mallorca even though they have the same points. We all know this has not been an easy season for Sevilla since the start of the season, but they are starting to recover and improve their performance and get out of the relegation zone.

The victory over Atletico Madrid should improve the enthusiasm and motivation of the players. The atmosphere of the dressing room also needs to be considered and this can make team collaboration more effective. Sevilla's ultimate goal this season is to stay in La Liga next season, they have failed in all competitions and of course they have to rebuild from the start.



I'm sure Barcelona can win their home match today even though in the last two seasons Barcelona has always failed to win against Granada. Barcelona took the lead in the match where Lamine Yamal managed to make perfect use of Joao Cancelo's assist. It was Lamine Yamal's second goal of the season for Barcelona in La Liga, the youngster continuing his rapid rise despite only being 16 years old.

Everyone will retire in time, and Ancelotti is no exception. There will be a worthy successor to become Madrid coach in the future, Zidane is the one who deserves to take on that role. However, that is still very far ahead, currently Ancelotti is celebrating the victory they achieved over Girona, and the additional 3 points make them a little comfortable in leading the La Liga standings. However, Madrid is a club that has dominated La Liga for decades, the increase in strength experienced by Girona has not been able to break Madrid dominance.

Barcelona and ATM could be beaten by Girona, and indeed I was one of those people who was surprised at that time, because I initially believed that Girona would definitely lose points. However, Michel squad has proven that they are able to overcome these two elite clubs, but there is still a second leg, where Girona will also face other tough clubs in the future, and the pressure they will receive will be much more difficult than the first half of the season. What is clear is that Girona has made La Liga even more lively than in previous seasons, and their current achievements are indeed worthy of appreciation.

Regarding the experiment carried out by Ancelotti, I think the Italian coach did it very geniusly. Ancelotti choice of placing Tchouameni as a central defender proved to be effective, he could complete his task very well. It can be seen that this season Madrid is experiencing a crisis in defense, Alaba, Rodiger, Militao are still undergoing treatment, but Ancelotti has managed to overcome it with various experiments which are considered full of risks.

The final result is in and to be honest I was surprised by the result of Sevilla against Atletico today.
Honestly I underestimated Sevilla a little with their current condition but it turns out they can really give a positive result where 3 points they got in today's match.
Atletico did control the match for 90 minutes of normal time but seeing what Sevilla did where they were more patient and waited for momentum especially when they took a quick lead in the first half seemed to give them an advantage.
The last 3 matches 1 draw and 2 wins obtained by Sevilla at least make them further away from the current relegation zone and it seems that now they want to try to focus on La Liga because indeed they have nothing to expect apart from saving themselves from the relegation zone and staying in the top competition in the Spanish league.

There we go Atlatico Madrid lost again. What's going wrong with them? Recently, Atlético Madrid have lost two matches and one draw against Real Madrid including this Although Atlatico Madrid have played so well, unfortunately they don't get any Chance to put the ball into the net due to the Sevilla defense. But I think there is some miscommunication between their players because they created some chances but couldn't find the equalizer or win the match.
 
On the other side Sivilla also avoids such beautiful game play to break the Atlatico Madrid defense because they have fewer attempts at shots on target and get them. If we look at the status Atlatico Madrid has more passion and shot attempts but couldn't find the equalizer, despite Sivilla having less attempt as well as possession, but they hit more shots on target than Atlatico Madrid and get the goal.

You have to give that football psychology and twist to Anceloti. Just before that match, I saw how everyone were giving credit to Girona for there outstanding matches this season, for beating Barcelona that aren't in form, for beating Atletico and the rest and they think that is enough to justify their match with Real Madrid, I'm glad I didn't waste my energy to argue blindly but the result was enough to put Girona and his people in their place because Real Madrid useless them in that match, the showed they are the seniority Spain and will remain relevant till dy kingdom dy come.

What scared is what will happened when if Anceloti decide to leave Real Madrid, that man is aging and the more his age is increasing, his sense of style in winning matches impress me more. I fear that if that man leave Real Madrid, it might be difficult to get a man like Anceloti. Just look at how he arrange center back for Real Madrid against Girona, Rudiger wasn't even fit to play but he used the remaining players efficiently and still got his result excellently.

Girona has been doing really well in the soccer season, surprising everyone with their great performance. Even though Girona is playing perfectly, I didn't expect Girona to win when they faced Real Madrid because they are also in good shape, especially since the match took place at Madrid's home.
In my opinion it still won't be that easy because to become a leader in La Liga you have to have deeper experience.

 Even competing with popular teams in La Liga is not an easy task because popular teams have more experience with various strategies to be able to regain their position first. but I really hope there is something different this season Girona must become the leader in La Liga to see new history without the boredom of seeing every season led by a team that always dominates La Liga. Real Madrid for sure won't make it so easy for them and so let's anticipate how the remaining weeks of the season would turn out.

However, this match was quite fierce because both teams needed each other to get full points in order to improve their respective positions in the standings, but Valencia, who usually has always been able to score goals in the last 5 matches, in this match they couldn't score a single goal. Actually, I only need at least one goal from Valencia and don't really care who will win because it will definitely be quite difficult to predict the outcome of this match.

Next week Valencia will face Sevilla and this is another tough match that they have to go through. I'm not talking about the difference in performance this season, but as a former big team in La Liga, both teams should have great prestige so Sevilla certainly won't let Valencia win easily. Moreover, Sevilla currently needs a lot of points so that they can immediately be free from the seasonal position they always occupy. So yes, I see it as an even match, even though their performances are different this season. About 6th place at the end of the season? I think Valencia can do it as long as Real Sociedad remains in a negative trend.

But unfortunately, it seems that that scenario did nothappen in this match because ya,Sevilla's defense in this match still lookedfine until the 80th minute . Also,in fact Sevilla led with 1 goal which was scoredby Isaac Romero in the 15th minute of the first half . With the results that occurred up to the 80th minute,it seems Sevilla still has a good chanceof maintaining the victory which alreadythey have . Because ya, it looks like Atletico is really deadlocked in this match because ya, infact Atletico is still having difficulty scoring goals until the 80th minute. Therefore, I think about the instability of Sevilla's performance sofar this season,atleast a result like this would be a surprise result. Because ya, after all, basically Atletico is also in a good trend at this moment but Atletico is still losing by Sevilla, which basically Sevilla is still in a bad trend.

Vinicious really played like he wanted to prove something, it could be his best game this season long. Not that Jude played badly, he played great as well and it was a great moment and it went very well for him too. Overall the whole team was great aside from Joselu as usual.

I think it is not good for him neither because he is playing at a team who he can't play for, Real is much better team than he should be playing for and this makes him look worse than he normally could be. Like if he was playing for Girona or Sevilla or Villareal, basically any other team, then he could have shown how good he is, but because he is at Real, the expectations are a lot higher which results with him playing badly.

Granada will certainly have difficulty beating Barcelona, ​​but don't forget that in the last 3 meetings Granada has actually managed to hold Barcelona to a draw. The last time Barcelona beat Granada was in the away match of the 2020-2021 season, but Barcelona lost 1-2 in the home match. H2H is very balanced, especially in the last 5 matches including the Copa Del Rey match, so don't underestimate Granada.

Granada drew against Barcelona at home this season and perhaps they have the same plan in their away game today. Barcelona's probability of winning is certainly higher than Granada's, but something different is still very possible. Xavi will certainly take advantage of Girona's defeat yesterday to narrow the points gap, so Barcelona's victory will make the points gap between the two teams become 3 points.

Granada's performance so far has been very poor and this may be exploited by Barcelona to achieve victory. Granada have only won 1 of the 10 games they have played so far and of course there are many more bad statistics that I did not mention. Xavi should not underestimate Granada. Regardless of Granada's performance so far, I think Granada is still dangerous.

The first half has ended as you said if the score 1-0 lasted until the first half was over, the goal from Sevilla surprised Atletico Madrid who actually seemed to have more control of the ball in the first half, Atletico players
not have much creativity so it was difficult for them to create opportunities could be a goal, in the first half Atletico Madrid only recorded 7 chances but only 2 were on target, while Sevilla actually looked more effective in carrying out attacks and were able to create 5 on target and often troubled Atletico defense with their attacks, I think the score  1-0  no yet It is quite safe for Sevilla to win today match and of course Simeone will slightly change their game tactics to catch up on goals in second half, currently Atletico Madrid position in the standings is quite crucial and at any time they can be overtaken by Atletico Bilbao who are also starting to approach the top 4, if Atletico Madrid If they don't get up immediately in the second half and win the match today, of course they have to be  give up 4th place for Atletico Bilbao, who will only face Almeria in the next match in Week 24 of La Liga.

We want to know how long Sevilla can maintain this victory because there is a second half that can haunt Sevilla from Atletico Madrdi's attack, if for example they win at home then it's a good victory because we know Sevilla often loses so far only 5x wins, so there will be many doubts about this match that Sevilla can win.

Will watch the second half later, however Atletico will continue to chase points in order to keep shifting Barcelona, which is currently position 3 but as far as we know that Atletico are playing very well, the possibility of their chances of winning is still very open.

This is a match between two prestigious La Liga teams. If you look at the quality of the current team, Atletico Madrid is indeed much stronger, especially Sevilla, which is in poor form at the moment, but this match will be different.

The first half of the match has ended and Sevilla is already ahead by 1 goal in the minute created by Isaac Romero, it will be quite interesting in the second half how we will see Sevilla continue to try to maintain their lead.

Personally, I really hope that Sevilla can win the match so they can stay away from the relegation zone, a team as big as Sevilla doesn't deserve to be at the bottom of the table, they have quality.

In terms of quality Barcelona is far more favored to get three points in this match because apart from Granada appearing inconsistent they also have the advantage of playing at home. Xavi must pay special attention to every match if he wants to catch second place because Girona is also trying to maintain that position. Even though Barcelona is unstable I am very sure they will get the three points in this match because this is the best opportunity.

Granada's last five matches were only able to get one win and visiting Camp Nou is not easy because Barcelona will definitely give the best results in the home match. Apart from that, winning is mandatory so that Barcelona can cut three points behind Girona. Moreover, they only face bottom teams who are in the relegation zone so it would be quite embarrassing if the match ended in defeat.

Sevilla  vs  Atletico Madrid

The match between Sevilla vs Athletic Madrid is taking place now. Atlético Madrid team was considered as the favorite in this match. Because even though it is Sevilla's home match, this team's performance is very weak this season.

However, in today's match against Atletico Madrid, the players of Sevilla are performing well. At the moment, the Sevilla team is leading the match 1-0. And Sevilla are not playing defensively in this match. They have been able to perform several spectacular attacks. In the 15th minute, Isaac Romero scored a goal to give Sevilla the lead. The first half is probably going to end 1-0.

Barcelona needs to win every match after match, not just the match against Granada. remember, Barcelona is 11 pawns away from Real Madrid at the top of the standings. To catch up with Real Madrid, it seems that it will be a very difficult matter for Xavi Hernandez and his squad. But at least, Barcelona needs a win to maintain their position in the top four of the La Liga standings. but unfortunately for Barcelona, ​​several of their players are still absent, such as Gavi, who has a long injury. Balde, Jelix, Torres, and Raphina's status is still in doubt. Fortunately, the main goalkeeper seems to have recovered from his injury. which means, Xavi can rely on Ter Stegen as Barcelona's goalkeeper.

Referring to the predicted line-up of players, Barcelona will field almost its entire starting eleven. most likely, Fermin Lopez will be demoted to a winger. referring to this match, Barcelona should be able to get full points over their opposing team. moreover, Granada is in the relegation zone. besides, this match was played at Camp Nou. on paper, Barcelona should have picked up the points easily. referring to the betting options, there doesn't seem to be an ideal choice for me. but if I had to speculate or predict, Barcelona will win this match with a clean sheet. for betting options, there is no ideal option because it is too risky.

Barcelona and Atletico Madrid both today see the chance to cut 3 points fot he gap between them and Girona, no better chance than this one, and also lets keep an eye on Girona afer the lose against Real MAdrid, they can be not only lose the game of yesterday but also they can lose the spirit of the faith in winning the championship, so lets see how much damage inflict on them the yesterday lose.

Barcelona has a big chance of securing 3 points when they host Granada today, and Xavi doesn't want to be embarrassed at home by a club in the degradation zone. We know that Barcelona this season has appeared very unstable, so they have been thrown off the trophy hunt, but a club like Granada still needs a miracle to be able to beat Barcelona. Xavi has the ambition to reduce the point difference with Girona, and I hope that Xavi will field his best starting XI for this match. Granada is actually not a tough opponent, but there is also the possibility that they can create a surprise, although I think their chances are very low.

I think betting on Barcelona winning would be quite safe, considering that Granada current statistics are very much down. Apart from that, Gradana ambition to get out of the degradation zone is likely to be delayed, and they are a club that has the potential to be degradation when the season ends. So far, Granada has only managed to achieve 2 wins in 23 matches in La Liga, there is no hope of surviving in La Liga next season.

Sevilla vs Atletico Madrid will be one of the most interesting matches of the night. Sevilla beat Vallecano away last week. Atletico Madrid got 1 point away from Real Madrid with a last minute goal. I will be sad if Sevilla is relegated at the end of this season. But I think Atletico Madrid is the favorite in this match. Sevilla makes a lot of mistakes in defense. Atletico Madrid will make good use of these mistakes in this match.
