Barcelona deserves to win the league because they have spent and worked more than most teams in the league. Securing three points from the remaining games will not be a big deal for Barca. But I was not impressed with their last performance against Osasuna because they wasted many opportunities to score. They had 21 shots, just 4 were on target and it resulted in just one goal.


Both teams are at the same level currently. Mallorca has not won any game in three matches while Cadiz lost two games and won just one. But there is a higher probability of Mallorca winning the game. But you cannot underestimate any team struggling to avoid relegation. Apart from Elchi, all other teams below the 15th place in La Liga have not escaped relegation. So three points in this game will give Cadiz the needed relief or a boast to avoid relegation.

I think Barcelona doesn't care about anything anymore. One thing that Barcelona needs to focus on right now is their finances, they did some wild moves last season to build this team, but they can't keep this team going, some of the players will want a raise and the more contracts that end, the bigger trouble they will be in and they will have to constantly end up getting new players when old ones leave and they are going to have hard time doing that.

Paying for players was a mistake, they paid Torres 50 million the moment Xavi got there and that was a money they couldn't afford to spend already. The only thing to care about right now is economy and if they can do better job of that and recover, that may get a lot better for them.

@LordShanken do you not understand football or what's happen on with you?

This is La Liga, man, not another competition that allowed Real Madrid to come back after 14 points behind Barcelona only in the next 5 matches. There are no knockout stages in the La Liga format, the format is all about how many points you can collect in 38 match to win the title, qualify for the Champions League, qualify for the Europa League, stay for another season or you will be relegated.

Based on their results in head to head records, I personally think that Mallorca is still better. Because, even though their matches often end in draws and sometimes Cadiz can beat Mallorca, but overall I still see that Mallorca has a better winning record when playing against Cadiz.

Also, this match is of course a revenge match because Mallorca lost by Cadiz when Mallorca played away in their first meeting this season. So, with Mallorca playing at home and also the odds showing that at least Mallorca is still the favorite team, then Mallorca should be able to beat Cadiz in this match.

Although Barcelona are at the top of the La Liga points table and have a great chance of securing the title, I highly doubt that Barcelona will be defeated by Real Madrid in the knockout stages. Because Real Madrid has the ability to make a great comeback.

To be honest, I would prefer it if Mallorca won this match, but if you look at the head to head data, these two teams are actually not much different and can be said to be balanced. Maybe Mallorca can take their chances with a narrow win at home but surely Cadiz will not let that happen. Cadiz has a more realistic target of shifting Almeria and continuing to stay away from the red zone. I think this match will not be much different from the previous results and I think Mallorca will win this match later.

Yeah im aware of it.

Cadiz - LWLDL
Mallorca - LDLWW

Mallorca has better results during last five matches.




That's it. Sometimes cadiz has a motivation that would make it able to get draw or even win against a big team than it. The motivation to avoid relegation zone seems to become the biggest motivation for cadiz to win against mallorca very soon.

Good luck with your choice. I hope cadiz will make it.

Playing as guest Cadiz will travel to Iberostar Estadi to face Mallorca. looking at the stats the away team is currently 15th in the standings, one point ahead of 18th-placed Getafe. Meanwhile, Mallorca are 12th in the division, seven points clear of the relegation zone with five matches remaining.

Mallorca is currently still not safe from the threat of relegation and of course they want a win from this match against Cadiz, because Mallorca has several big games before the end of the season, preparing to face Almeria and Valencia in their two games after this one. when viewed from the meeting and statistics it seems that the hosts are more favorite to win. my prediction is 1 - 0

Barcelona only need 3 points to secure the title this season and celebrate even though La Liga is not over yet. There is no doubt about the odds at all with 99.99% already owned by Barcelona but if someone is still in doubt then maybe they just want to bet with 0.01 odds.

Expecting Barcelona to fail to win the La Liga title this season after winning so many points over Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid is something that might be ridiculous, even I myself never expected it even though I am a supporter of Real Madrid. There is no miracle for Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid this season to win the La Liga title, so forget about that.

Atletico Madrid have done a pretty good job about reaching the 2nd spot in the standings. They can maintain this spot until the end of the season as well if they keep up their focus at this level. However their job on the last three weeks can be more difficult. Because their fixtures are like this consecutively:

- Espanyol (A)
- Real Sociedad (H)
- Villarreal (A)

Espanyol are trying to not relegate from the La Liga now. Real Sociedad and Villarreal are in a fight to qualify for some tournament next season. Especially Real Sociedad are getting close to making it to the Champions League groups. However even if Atletico Madrid get decent results and secure the 2nd spot they can still make some big changes to be more successful. I wonder if Simeone will be continuing to manage the team for example.

Barcelona has almost confirmed the title this season, they are just waiting for the time to celebrate.
look at the current La Liga standings, why should you doubt Barcelona can win the title this season, they are already very far ahead in points.

Cadiz and mallorca are teams that have been inconsistent in their last few matches.
this will be difficult to predict indeed, but Cadiz's motivation to win the match is quite large because currently Cadiz is very close to the relegation cliff, therefore they will try hard to win this match even though this match is played at home to mallorca.
Even though it's risky, I'm trying to bet on Cadiz's win in this match because I saw Mallorca's poor performance in its last few matches.

If Espanyol can win over Barcelona in the match later it won't be able to increase their ranking because it will only make the points equal to Getafe and Valencia who are above them but Espanyol will probably be behind on goal difference unless they can win with quite a lot of goals and in my opinion, it's a little impossible, maybe Espanyol can steal a winning point but with a thin score, but is it possible that Barcelona will waste the opportunity to secure the title in this match? I think that will not happen and Xavi will immediately instruct the attack at the start of the match to be able to get full points, if they fail in this match then when playing at the Nou Camp against Real Sociedad will be the next opportunity for Barca and again failing to secure the title in this match I don't think so will happen, especially for a team like Barcelona who understand how to maintain motivation when under pressure.

Whether this match will be interesting, I'm not sure. but for sure, both teams will appear with a riotous game. but if I refer to the H2H of these two teams, no one dominates each other instead the match tends to end in a draw. it's just that, in the first meeting of this season Cadiz was able to overthrow Mallorca with a score of 2-0.

now that Mallorca is playing as the home team, they can avenge their defeat when they travel to Cadiz headquarters. well, now we refer to the predictions that these two teams will apply. Mallorca with 3-5-2, while Cadiz with a 4-4-2 pattern. In essence, these systems are not equally good at offensive strategy systems. now we can refer to the players of both teams, it seems that both teams have several injured players. however, Cadiz had more injured players. I'm not sure, if it will have a big impact or not. in fact, the first and second-tier teams alike couldn't be of better quality. Now, referring to the odds, in this match Mallorca is superior to Cadiz. naturally, Mallorca is the home team. plus, in terms of ratings, Mallorca is ahead of Cadiz. that means, the chances of the home team are bigger than the opponent.

Now the choice is whether you will have Mallorca with odds @2.17, draw @2.70, Cadiz @3.95.  or, another option with both teams scoring goals, it could also be the Over/Under option. my estimation, Mallorca will win this fight. but ideally, bet on Under 2.5 goals.

At least, there are still five matches remaining and that is still enough to give Espanyol a chance to try to get out of the relegation zone. But yes, of course it won't be easy, because at the same time Espanyol must win and expect defeat to be experienced by the team above them. So yes, of course it won't be easy for Espanyol to get out of the relegation zone, moreover the opponent they will face in tomorrow's match is Barcelona.

Because, based on head to head, Espanyol doesn't have a good ability to beat Barcelona. Therefore, a draw could be the maximum that Espanyol can achieve but I think maybe at this moment Espanyol has a high luck factor to be able to get the three points.

Even if you make such a bet (BTTS), it is better to do it just before the start of the match. Due to the fact that all games start at different times, it could turn out that (if Ateltico and Real Madrid lose points, although this is unlikely since they are playing with complete outsiders) that Barcelona will officially become champions even before the game starts. It seems to me that this can mix up all the plans for the game.

It seems like this match is difficult to predict, as you said the last match Mallorca vs Cadiz ended with Cadiz winning 2-0, so maybe today Cadiz can make another surprise. But also Mallorca will play at home today, it is an advantage for them in front of their fans, so there is a possibility that this game will still be difficult for both Cadiz or Mallorca. But if to bet, it's better for me to choose the both of teams can score, because the odds are good too @2.28. To answer your question I think this match will be draw.

Even though the problem of the financial crisis has been going on since last season, Barcelona doesn't seem to be able to sort it all out until now. Even though Barcelona is a big team and has several star players at the club, it seems that the management is not very skilled at managing these financial problems. Many players have dreams of coming to Barcelona but with these financial problems it will certainly raise doubts for any player if they have to sign a contract with Barcelona.

Barcelona should immediately sell some of its players to solve this problem and as was rumored some time ago Newcastle is also interested in bringing in Raphinha at a cost of 80 million euros, this should be an opportunity for Barcelona to sell him and be able to fix existing finances for a while. Regarding the La Liga title this season, it is completely under Barcelona's control, they don't need to be confused in the next match because this is the only title they can get this season.

I'm also sure that Barcelona will win even if not by a large score, because Barcelona just wants to confirm the championship earlier with the victory they will achieve in the match with Espanyol. Apart from that, Espanyol is indeed not a challenge that is so difficult for Barcelona so that Barcelona will only try to play as best as possible for full points even if they only win with not many scores.

I believe that Espanyol will not be able to get out of the relegation zone this season because of the next five matches that Espanyol will face, there are three matches that might be very tough for Espanyol (including the game with Barcelona). In addition, Espanyol is also three points behind Getafe and Valencia, who are ranked 17th and 18th in the standings, so that makes it a little difficult for Espanyol to level points with the two teams.

Barcelona is in serious financial trouble. it even happened a few seasons ago which had an impact on salary cuts and even arrears in payment of player salaries. gradually now the management of the Barcelona club is managing and recovering their finances. they fought hard to bring in some of the players that Xavi wanted. such as bringing in Lewandowski which also drained Barca's pockets. but it's a purchase that I feel was a success for Barca.
this season Barcelona is very safe for the La Liga title. the remaining matches will not change the situation because they have a very big chance.

One thing I believe in from Ancelotti's decision is, old players who have played for the club for a long time is able to balanced the team's playing rythm. Then, it is also easier for older players to get coach instructions because they respect each other. In contrast to young players who are more easily defected and indisciplined. But, this is not a good strategy, Madrid have a good academy, Ancelotti should not be doing another mistake and needs to change. The academy is important, because we can find new young talents. Milan threw away their talents several times because Ancelotti lacked faith in young players. Of course with Perez, Ancelotti easy to buy new talented players, football is about business, having talented players from academy will giving them more money as Arsenal did. right
