Sevilla is still too inconsistent. I would prefer to take something like both team to score. The match probable will end with draw as the final result. I don't even see picking sevilla is making sense in this match. It's caused by if we are seeing from the previous games and sevilla was never making more than 1 goal. That means if this club is still underperform. Expecting sevilla to make as many goals as possible during the match against almeria looked like impossible thing to happen.

The only possible choices for me to take are

-0.5 asian handicap/btts is a sense choice. It's caused by i do believe if sevilla will not even make more than 2 goals against almeria.

I think that we may see 1-1/2-1 as the main result between sevilla against almeria very soon. It's caused by sevilla is still performing so poorly in la liga / chamion league.

My opinion is that there is no need to hope and rush to bring in Mbappe, while Real Madrid's defense line is still very bad and must be improved quickly, so at least Real Madrid must look for players who are able to become a strong defender in Real Madrid's defense line, if the defense line is already are already strong, it will be very easy for the attackers to make the game very good and balanced, it takes time to overhaul everything from the very good times in the previous era and now is the era where all the young players show their skills in their respective capacities, defeat What Real Madrid felt last week was a lesson to be a correction in a team to fix the shortcomings in the Real Madrid squad this season.

I really don't know if the Seville team are for real this season, I'm beginning to dislike them the more, getting the job done has been a serious problem. The season is still fresh but they don't have time to be wasting at the moment, their position is not healthy, maybe in the next 3 games they might step up to winning ways.
Today they're taking on Almeria who also has not found their feet with 2 draws 4 lose and no win, I think Seville would take advantage of the fact that the visitors ain't strong enough to go head to head with them in tonight's encounter.
From the looks of things I feel the home team has all it takes to take all three point and I don't expect this game to be a difficult one for the UEL CHAMPIONS.

Real Madrid had tried to bring in Mbappe in the last transfer window, but Real Madrid was not willing to spend the money PSG requested for the fee to release Mbappe. Real Madrid's intention was to cut costs in order to get Mbappe for free, but the reality was the opposite of what Real Madrid predicted. Because they are too focused on Mbappe, Real Madrid forgets about other targets, the stock of quality strikers is also very limited, they are also reluctant to buy players they want to bring in at very high prices.

Real Madrid is starting to feel a shortage of quality strikers, Vinicius cannot always be relied on, there are unexpected factors that make the coach have to rotate. Bellingham who has always been diligent in scoring goals, cannot be forced to play on the front lines, he is more comfortable playing in his original position as an attacking midfielder.

In the Madrid Derby match, there were several important notes that were additional work for Ancelotti, he had to optimize the use of opportunities and also the back line was starting to look fragile. Since the start of the new season, Real Madrid have never conceded more than one goal, but when they met Atletico, they were badly beaten by conceding three goals in one match.

Next year, Endrick and most likely Mbappe will be added to the team. With these two transfers, Real Madrid will probably not have a striker shortage. This year, this deficiency is very noticeable. We are not used to Real Madrid scoring few goals in the match. What we expect is Real Madrid, a team that attacks and scores a lot of goals. Perez must find a solution to this. Maybe he should bring Mbappe to the team in January.

What is seen as a big problem for Real Madrid is, of course, the lack of strikers. They could not achieve this in this transfer period, but if they bring Mbappe to the team in the next period, there will be no problem in that region. Also, it seems that there was a problem with the defense, we can say this because they conceded 3 goals from Atletico Madrid. Not conceding a goal is of great importance, especially if you are having trouble in the forward area.

About Sevilla vs Almeria i think this is interesting match because Sevilla recently has been made a good transfer with gets Sergio Ramos from free transfer status and since he was arrived to this team Sevilla was through an 3 matches with unbeatable in Laliga and champion league so it's clearly Sergio Ramos has give positive impact to Sevilla performance because with his experience he was successfully to improve defensive lines from Sevilla and today too i am quite confident Sevilla will be able to resumes their positive records and win from Almeria especially Almeria is not strong opponent for them because currently their position at the bottom of standings league and Sevilla has odds @1.63 indeed this isn't high odds but i think this is good pick

Real Madrid did not have Vinicius in previous matches that is a big minus for their attacking power. They still created opportunities but Joselu simply could not convert too many of them to goals for Real Madrid. Joselu played only at acceptable level and at a big club like Real Madrid, it seems to be not enough.

Real Madrid won previous matches in La Liga with goals from an unexpected scorer, Jude Bellingham but before joining Real Madrid and suddenly had this excellent scoring streak, Jude has never made a similar streak in his career. He is not a goal productive midfielder like Frank Lampard in previous seasons. The transfer from Dortmund to Real Madrid and this season can be a big achievement and upgrade for Jude's career. However as a giant club, Real Madrid must wake up their attacking players to score goals for them and to reduce pressure as well as expectation on Jude Bellingham.

Problems are always there but they only are shown more clearly with defeats and bad streak. This derby defeat is helpful for Real Madrid to wake up and realize their own weaknesses better. The season is long enough for them to improve and play better to win big titles. Weaknesses should be known in early phase of season as said, there will be enough given time for fixing. It's worse if dead weaknesses only shown in knock out phase and most decisive phase of season, then there will be no time to fix anything rather than losing titles and competitions.

A strong Frontline has been a major problem of Madrid since the beginning of the season just that they managed to cover it in previous match and made it not too obvious until they met Atletico who exposed this weakness of theirs.I wasn't expecting it to be an easy game with Madrid tho, because AthletiCo is not a week team at all to contend with in all sense.

A top striker who would have scored all the needed goals was very much important as the others were just attackers who couldn't convert their passes and assist in to goals. It was sad atletico had their first goal in the first four minutes of the game, I think this also weakend the moral of the players at Madrid, early goals often sounds like weakness on your side and superiority for your opponent.

Since their weak point have been made obviously clear it's left with Madrid to work on improvement so as to get better results in subsequent games as they can't go far in the champions league with such performance, they will definitely have to improve if they really want to go far in the champions league. Congrats to Athletico they deserved the win.

Even though they have always won previous matches, Real Madrid's performance seems to be starting to decline. This condition is of course very worrying for Ancelotti, he often manipulates formations in every match because the need for players, especially in the attacking sector, is very weak after Vinicius was injured. When conditions are lame like that, Ancelotti only relies on Bellingham as a shadow striker in his formation, it looks good, but if he continues to apply this, it will be very easy for opponents to read. And I'm sure Atletico Madrid will be able to read that gap and they will be able to win and not give their opponent a chance for a comeback.

It's the combination of madrid's fault and atletico's plan. After the first goal by morata atletico was just realizing the main weakness of madrid. Atletico madrid was able identificating it in a short time which is proving that if atletico madrid deserves to win the game at this moment.
All of atletico madrids are playing on point like they know what they must be doing during the game especially morata which was always able positioning himself in the right position to make perfect header that can't be blocked by kepa as real madrid's goal keeper.
Ancellotti has been also seeing it as the thing that must be evaluated by the club as soon as possible. It's caused by madrid is trying so hard to

Morata deserves a lot of praise caused by his consistency in doing header with high accuracy. Nonetheless, but would like to put main attention to the griezmann. It surprises me to see atltletico madrid who can come back so fast after it was losing against valencia.

The champions are not those who beat strong teams, but lose to weak teams, but those who beat average and weak teams and at least play well with the strong ones. To be honest, according to the recruitment of players and strength in La Liga over the past decade, a priori only Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona can be called strong teams, all the others are from the other section. Therefore, it is not necessary to say on the basis of the first loss of Real Madrid that the team will not become the champion, especially since the return game is coming. It's just that for now we can say that the team's performance is not impressive yet and it does not look a cut above as in other seasons.

It is true that Real Madrid have never played against a good club in their last five matches. If we look at the previous schedule of Real Madrid, they have never faced a strong club since their last five matches. They face Real Sociedad, Getafe, Celtaga, Celta Vigo, etc., but if we compare them, all these clubs are at the bottom of the league table, despite the fact that Real Madrid has not kept up such a good display against these clubs. They have won 1-0 against someone and managed to win 2-1 against someone, but when it turns to Atlatico Madrid's, they lose badly, which means that Real Madrid has not experienced strong teams this season. So my point is that it is difficult for Real Madrid to win La Liga this time if their status is that

Yes, of course Atletico Madrid's victory in the match against Real Madrid yesterday was not just luck. Even though in ball possession they lost to Real Madrid, they were able to really optimize their attacks into goals. Of the 4 shots on target, 3 of them became goals. On the other hand, Real Madrid, from 5 shots on target, only scored 1 goal. From here it can be seen that Atletico Madrid's front line is really able to optimize the accuracy and effectiveness of their attacks which they can get from smaller odds. Meanwhile, on the other hand, Real Madird really needs a top striker so that their players or front line can be really sharp again.

Yes, this defeat does not mean that Real Madrid is a bad club. However, from this defeat, Real Madrid, including Ancelotti, really learned a lot, the tactics they used and the strength of their current squad which lacks a sharp front line. They should be fully aware that with their current strength, it is possible that they will not be able to compete more strongly in the Champions League later.

But on the other hand Ancelotti gave a statement that he was responsible for this defeat, so he admitted his own mistakes. https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1706076328053584004
We have always assumed that losing Vinicus to injury affected Real Madrid's attack, never mind that this was a failed strategy from Ancelotti, basically Vinicius has always affected Real Madrid's performance.

Atletico Madrid played quite well yesterday, while Real Madrid was frantic because they kept trying to attack but failed continuously, ATM's defense was also solid maybe they have found confidence in the team, if ATM's performance is like this then they can rival other teams.

The first 5 matches was unbeaten because Real Madrid didn't play against tough opponents. But when they played against a tough opponent like Atletico Madrid, they suddenly got a defeat. That's because Real Madrid squad is only ready to handle small teams, they are not ready to compete with top teams. Atletico performance may be not stable, but they have strong players and they played at home in this match. So, Atletico Madrid is very eager to win against Real Madrid. Since Real Madrid is no longer having strong attackers and defenders, Atletico can defeat them with 3 goals. It is actually a shame for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid could make 20 shot attempts, but it couldn't be goals because Real Madrid has no top striker as a machine goal. Rodrygo played underperformance, while Bellingham may be unlucky at this match. Unfortunately, Real Madrid has no striker (CF) that can be a mainstay player for scoring goals. So, when Rodrygo and Bellingham can't play optimally, it is easy for Atletico to stop Real Madrid players for scoring goals.

Tomorrow there will be 2 matches.Sevilla-Almeria and Mallorca-Barcelona.Sevilla have had a bad start to the season in the league and it's up to them to bounce back.Their opponent is not a difficult opponent and I will be expecting them to win at home so that they can bounce back.
Barcelona's opponent is not a difficult opponent when we look at him and we see that he has won all the matches in the last meetings with his opponent.I think the odds are too high for me because when Barcelona was in such form, less odds should have been given.

Atletico Madrid lived up to their ego with Morata outshining Bellingham with the goals that secured the win.
I don't think Diego Simone really bothers much especially having remained the manager at Atletico Madrid for sometime now and with a very consistent defense line.

Madrid has dropped points to sit behind Barca on the third spot and hopefully, both Barca and Girona either losses or draws in two consecutive matches so as Real Madrid climbs up.

I believe that Ancelotti will see his weakness from yesterday night that the club needs a striker for them to be successful. Real Madrid was lucky that they were winning weak clubs without a striker but they saw it yesterday that when it comes to playing big games, they need a striker to score goals.

I don't know what the fate of Real Madrid from will be now till the transfer window is open, because it obvious that they will not be able to go far without strikers. Assuming they had strikers, maybe Athletco wouldn't have won them that easily or who knows maybe they would have won the game. Mbappe presence is much needed in the club to help Madrid out of their present state.

If there are any luck factors, it would be better you name them so that others will understand the sentiments and how to counter the attack just like the way I'm doing right now, there is no factor than the good midfield that we have right now and that is what has helped Real Madrid over the past 5 matches they played and guess what Ancelotti said after the game, he said he was responsible for the failure for conceding 3 goals from Atletico Madrid which is a normal thing to me as a professional manager, he should have allowed Bellingham stay at the centre midfield instead of left-wing position, also Vinicius is also not fully recover.


I don't think winning is a roller coaster thing to celebrate too soon, it is Real Madrid's turn to lose after winning 5 matches, and a time will come when Barcelona will be casted and blame Xavi for being unfortunate, it's a natural thing for fans to get upset but if you are been reasonable, you will understand better how football works, you can't win every time but a team is supposed to bounce quickly after disappointing the fans, it will quickly make them forget the mistakes they have done in the previous matches. For Real Madrid, they still have lots of energy to prove that this season belongs to them.
