Real Madrid should have won the match by a three-goal margin, even though the referee disallowed two goals because the match was dominated by Real Madrid. There were a number of good opportunities that could have been goals, but were not completed well. Sevilla's defense also appeared very solid and Sergio Ramos made several saves, thus preventing Sevilla from losing at home. Even though the match ended in a draw, Real Madrid is still firmly in first place in the standings because Atletico Madrid, Girona and Barcelona have not yet play.

Sergio Ramos is still a tough defender in my opinion and he is still playing well even though it is not the same as in the last few seasons. This is the first match since Sergio Ramos left Real Madrid and he still shows his love for Los Blancos even though they are opponents.

They've tried to get a draw against Realmadrid that are in a really  good form, I think this new coach would do better than the previous one and try to get them to a better position, alot of people are saying they were lucky in the game well I'll say it's both luck and hardwork cause if you check the start you'll see the difference in possession is not very big and Sevilla had more shots and even created more chance than Realmadrid, it was one of the chances that lead to David Alaba's own goal.
 
 Sevilla really did well in guarding their defense line and putting off their attackers from getting good chances, Madrid suffered before they scored though it suprisenly came few minutes after they conceded, Realmadrid were more favorites to win the  game but Sevilla has destroyed their chance of maintaining the 1st position in the league with a good goal margin from other teams.

Yeah Madrid failed to win a game everyone considered they would win without much stress but they couldn't survive the defense by their ex team mate Ramos who was very outstanding in yesterday's game. Real Madrid though at the top of the table at the moment, they are not safe enough as they needed that goal difference to keep them strong at the top but they currently lack that difference.

If Barcelona happens to win their game today by two ore more goals they will top Madrid by The goal difference as they are only three points away from Madrid, but if Madrid had won it would have been five points difference, but if Barcelona draw Madrid may be most likely safe at the top of the table till next weekend, more was expected of Madrid, they had a complete squad on the pitch so it was expected they did better.

Apart from everything you said, I think the draw that Real Madrid achieved in this match was quite disappointing because they should have won but Real Madrid's performance was really disappointing.
Even though this match was played at Sevilla's home ground, the quality of the Real Madrid team was far above Sevilla and also the Sevilla team had just changed coaches and their performance was quite bad in the last few matches so the results achieved by Real Madrid were really not worthy.
Real Madrid have to improve a lot if they want to win the title this season, especially their front line which needs to be improved again. In this match, Real Madrid's front line was seen to be less sharp and unable to take advantage of opportunities/create chances.

So, does that mean this is a real improvement for Sevilla with their new coach. Because clearly, playing against Real Madrid is at least not an easy match because at the same time, at least Sevilla is also not in their best form at this moment. But yes, in reality Sevilla managed to play well in this match and yes, at least Sevilla also almost won this match because it was not easy for Real Madrid to score a goal in this match. Also, luck for me, because I only bet with the draw no bet option, so this draw result makes my bet return. Even though at first I was very confident that Real Madrid would win, but after I considered the previously available odds, then I felt that maybe Sevilla would surprise in this match and that happen.

Although he is 37 years old but Ramos still fresh in that match, he show a great game. I was amazed, when Ramos make attempted an attack to the Real Madrid defense and then he quickly returned to his position, he moved quickly to take advantage of the momentum but also quickly returned to his position. Unfortunately, he was unlucky in that match because can't scored. Ancelotti looks happy with see Ramos game play, and yes it seems Ancelotti to be a little regretful about letting Ramos go. You are right ! Losing 2 points is enough to make it difficult for them to maintain the gap with 2nd or 3rd ranks, because their gap is very close to the other teams. Moreover, today Girona will face against Almeria, which should not make it difficult for them to get 3 points at the Estadi Montilivi.

Barcelona must gain full points in the match against Bilbao, in order to reduce the difference in points between Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga standings. Unfortunately, this match looks like it will not be an easy match without several players who have to be absent due to injury. this condition makes it difficult for Xavi to carry out his team to victory after victory in every match they will play. however, appearing at their own headquarters, Barcelona still has a chance of returning to winning ways after last week achieving a 2-2 draw against Grana.

Xavi Hernandez's squad needs an additional 3 points to stay close to big rivals Real Madrid, who currently lead the La Liga standings. In this match, several of Barcelona's core players will be absent, at least for a few weeks, including Lewandowski, who is their mainstay as a goal-scoring machine. It doesn't seem like an easy match to beat the opposing team, with the conditions Barcelona is currently experiencing. However, Xavi still has other players, although they are not as sharp as Lewa. It is very likely that Ferran Torres will replace Lewandowski temporarily, or Xavi will change his pattern and system. For the other players, there doesn't seem to be a problem. except for the questionable status of Lamine Yamal. If so, there is still someone who can rotate Xavi like Fermin Lopez. Well, there's no other way but to just watch this match play out.

Meanwhile, looking at Bilbao's current performance, it can be said to be quite good. Ernesto Valverde could have used the momentum of this match to win 3 points at Barcelona headquarters. However, Barca will certainly not be easy to overthrow. they have a fairly strong defense line. and it looks like this match will be quite tough.  but it looks like the odds for Barcelona have now increased slightly, @1.78. and I think, there's nothing wrong with betting on the home team.

Real Madrid didn't lose, they just failed to win a match they should have won. However I have to admit that Sevilla played well in that match even though they deserved to lose points at home if not for two disallowed goals, but that is another part that should not be the reason why Real Madrid didn't win.

Sevilla is certainly very confident of performing well at home, and this is proof that they are really able to get into good form after sacking their old coach. Playing a draw against Real Madrid is the same as winning the match, but this draw has certainly harmed Real Madrid, who are in fact the favorites. Sevilla didn't score any goals apart from Alaba's own goal, but they fired 17 shots, 7 of which were on target.

How is it that a team as good as Real Madrid cant beat Sevilla when the odds are in their favor? It was emotional for Ramos to play against his old team, but shouldnt that have made Madrid's players even more determined? The goals that werent allowed only made things worse! Sergio, on the other hand, played absolutely brilliant defense. Sergio's expectations caused Vini and Jude to have trouble. Real was saved by Carvajal, though. We should praise the man for his hard work. If Real Madrid wants to keep winning La Liga, they need to get their act together. As Madrid fan, I say, "Wake up, Madrid!

Im very disappointed with the disallowed by goal by the referee. The result from this match was making my bet gets collapse. Madrid deserves to win the game against sevilla but im so frustating to watch the match after the first goal got annulled by the referee.
Madrid needs to do even better in upcoming match. Im hoping barcelona will struggle against bilbao and this will help el real to create the big gap to the barcelona.
Barcelona will face bilbao and this will become a very important match. Barcelona may be struggling against bilbao caused by the club will be playing without lewandowski. It seems like that felix will become the only striker.
Felix's position was not striker but the club may force him to play as a striker. Lamine yamal may still play like the previous position. There will be no a lot of change to happen in barcelona.

The second goal was similar to Mudryk's yesterday, though from a different angle or wing. Seeing that goal made me smile immediately.
But anyways, a goal will always be a goal irrespective of how the goal was scored. It seem intentional but looking at it you'll know it wasn't, I'll agree that to be lucky.

The third goal was about movements, moving into the right place waiting for the ball, Griezmann did that and I loved his movements.
I'm glad he didn't get to miss that one. The weight of the ball was perfect. Morata's movements also lead to that goal. 

I believe Barcelona would want to seize this opportunity and win their match against Atletico Bilbao cause not only would  they reduce their point difference with Realmadrid but they could top the league if they wun, they're they're points behind Madrid which means if they win they'll be sharing same points and be ahead of Madrid based on goal difference,  Realmadrid's lose could turn into a blessing for Barcelona cause being at the top of the league could really boost the confidence of their team against the El Classico, the is getting more interesting the competition among the two teams is tough this season cause this 1st El Classico match would determine which team would remain in place.

  Yesterday's match against Sevilla really suprised be, i didn't expect Madrid to concede 1st and struggled to get an equalizer I believe Realmadrid would had won the game if scored 1st, they just lost opportunity to remain at the top place and luckily for them they managed to get a point.

In the end, Sevilla is Ramos home, so there is no longer any reason not to defend his small club. For Madrid players, it is quite difficult to face their former captain, Ramos knows very well where Madrid weak point is at the moment. I think a draw is quite disappointing, but this result also doesn't make Madrid drop from the top of the standings.

Remaining without key players will only make Barcelona's appearance less stable. Their goal machine Lewandowski is not in good condition. This will be an opportunity for Bilbao to pressure Barcelona so that they cannot fully concentrate. On the other hand, Xavi will rotate several players, especially his attack line, because of course this requires Xavi to carry out a different strategy.

IMO Both Atletico Madrid, Girona and Barcelona have the same chance of occupying second place in the standings. Just need to compete, one of them gets full points. Because that way it will be easier for us to see which clubs are really benefiting.

Barcelona @1.60 is probably still pretty safe, @5.00 for Bilbao is a risky bet, but I'm interested.

This match is a big opportunity for Barcelona to reduce their point difference with Real Madrid, who could only draw with Sevilla in the 10th week of the match.
Barcelona must not lose this golden opportunity, what's more, Barcelona has quite a lot of wins when facing Atletico Bilbao, in fact in the last three meetings Barcelona managed to win with quite a landslide score plus this is a home game for Barcelona where this season they have not been defeated at home.
Barcelona has been quite successful in maintaining their record so far by not experiencing defeat just because three draws have kept them quite far from Real Madrid and with many matches still to be played, anything can happen where Barcelona is at the top of the standings.

An early red card ruined all Celta Vigo's plans. Their opponents were tough, but they might have had a chance for a draw. Villar threw his team into the fire with the red card he received and they could not escape from the bottom ranks of the league. They only collected 6 points after 10 matches and this is a really big problem.

The team statistics for this game are as follows:

Shots - 17:14
Shots on target - 7:5
Corners - 4:6

With almost equal ball possession. Obviously, in order to win such equal games you need to have someone who makes the difference and whose percentage of scoring chances is higher than average. If you have such a player, you can win games even those where your opponent has an advantage. Unfortunately, there is no such striker in Real Madrid now. There is Bellingham, but he is a midfielder and a top striker is still needed.

Ramos indeed performed very well, perhaps he already knows the direction of Real Madrid's game and already knows the movements of the Real Madrid players by heart. This is clearly different when Sevilla plays against Barcelona. Ramos performed badly, and that's how Ramos was, he was still very strong for the Real Madrid striker to pass.

In this match, Real Madrid should have won three points but unfortunately two goals were disallowed by the referee. I also don't understand Ancellloti, he brought on Cama and Modric instead of replacing Vede with Tchou, even though he should have replaced Kroos with Mendy, so he knows for himself what Alaba is like in blocking opponents' crosses, if Tchou is there he will definitely help the defense. and Camavinga is better as a LB.

This draw is not very good for Real Madrid, and will make next week's El Clasico very hot.

Real Madrid's match yesterday initially impressed me seeing the playing style of Vincius Jr and Bellingham and Rodrygo who were very enthusiastic about getting a win to beat Sevilla but all of that was just my hope and in fact Real Madrid had difficulty scoring more than 1 in that match when there were Sergio Ramos, who was in Sevilla's defense, became stronger and from the start I bet, I was actually a little doubtful because every match in LaLiga, Real Madrid only always 1 or 2 scores, even though they won, the score difference was very small and I lost the bet for Real Madrid.
With this incident I think is very important for Real madrid to get a reliable striker to help strengthen the attack line even though there are Vinicius and Bellingham but the strength of the attack line still very small for me.

However, in my opinion, Ancelotti has nothing to regret regarding Ramos. Better players than him came and gone, and players shouldn't spend their entire careers with one club. The team continued to have strong backline defenders like Rudiger even after Romas transferred to another club, Rudiger was awarded man of the match against Sevilla. Although he is a brave defender, I don't believe he can have the same background as Sergio Ramos. With his stupid heading attempt to score yesterday, I remained confused as to how Ramos was still powerful despite his advanced age. Ramos is a dangerous defense, and new Real Madrid players will believe what people are saying about him.

It seemed as though Bellingham was not on the field, the second half Sevilla really played Real Madrid. If not for the goal by Valverde that was canceled, Real Madrid would have taken the three points. I believe Kepa is following Courtois' lead in keeping the clean sheet he was removing. Kepa's performances really helped the team.

Celta de Vigo are in relegation zone after humiliating defeats against an elite side. What they were planning was contrary to what they faced, they were dissapointed after the referee, Guillermo Cuadra issued a straight red card to Celta de Vigo goalkeeper for a crucial foul committed. Villar was sent off and leaving the home team something to bother about. Celta reduced to 10 men, giving Atletico Madrid more golden goal opportunities to net goals. Good news for Antoine Griezmann for his terrific hat-trick, he received MOTM for his outstanding performance.
