I don’t see them coming close imo, although they’ve been performing exceptionally lately yet they have their bad time just like Barcelona are going through theirs at the moment..even though most games were not fair  play ( not saying Barcelona performance was upto task for this game either ). I will also like Barcelona to win the league as well they really deserve it this time around, they surprised everyone with their performance even though they were unable to sign more players due to their current financial situation, not sure I understood the “pay to win “ but Realmadrid are also good when it comes to performance and considering their current squad, when they all unite back things might be a little bit different for the club(Real Madrid) but I still doubt they would surpass Barcelona when it comes to performance.

Although Barcelona have experienced a slight decline but still, when it is a big match then they will play with their best efforts. Moreover, Barcelona will also play at home and based on the odds too, the fact that Barcelona is still very much a favorite because in their five match meetings, Barcelona has always managed to beat Atletico. Indeed, at this moment also that the points between Barcelona and Atletico only have a gap of three points, and it also proves that Atletico also still has a good chance to get points. But even so, I believe it is difficult for Atletico to beat Barcelona, but for a draw it seems possible.

Lewandowski under Hansi Flick has found his rhythm again, especially now that he has become the Target Man in his squad. Maybe we agree that Baca does not rely on running speed, but Flick instructed his team to keep moving or with high pressing tactics. Unfortunately, Barcelona is currently experiencing a slight decline in performance, although it is caused by several factors that are the cause. Tomorrow Barca will fly to Germany in the title of the Champions League qualifying match session 6, this match seems to be quite exciting. Talking about Araujo, although he is scheduled to be on the list of players leaving for Germany, he will not be played as a regular player. He is not ready enough for that, especially since Araujo still needs to adjust with his team. As usual, Flick will play his mainstay players in the match against Dortmund. I am sure Barca will perform optimally in the match. and getting full points is a mandatory result, although it is not easy to defeat Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park. Regardless, this match is worth waiting for.

Jude Bellinham is slowly starting to understand what to do for Real Madrid in midfield with the delicious passes that Toni Kroos usually makes, and so far he has succeeded, he will really shine for Madrid like Toni Kroos. When Real Madrid beat Girona it was a great performance by all the players, goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois was solid under the Real Madrid goal, Arda Guler increasingly showed that he should get more playing minutes (Arda is one of the best because he learned from the best), Belingham's agility in giving passes, the extraordinary playmaker Modric and a great goal from Mbappe. Mbappe will be a great player like his role model (Ronaldo). He is still in the maturity phase, so it is natural that he often drops and is easily satisfied. Hopefully he can go through that process and have a champion mentality in him.

The point is that if Real Madrid wants to be consistent, Don Carlo must make wise decisions, he must be brave and trust the reserve players or young players. Don't force to play players who have just recovered from their illness, because there are still Guler, Carbellos, Fran, Acensio. If young players are given the opportunity and trust, they will definitely find their best performance and that was proven by Arda, he was able to score a goal once playing, he is indeed a great young player.

I do not think that Atletico Madrid will pass Barcelona, that would be a bit too much. I get how it looks like Real could do that, it's clear that Barcelona had a bad period and they are hoping to get better results, but it would be very very tough for ATM to pass Barcelona, that would require both teams to keep their momentum for a while longer, Barcelona to keep losing or getting draws, and atm to keep on winning more and more, that seems like unlikely if you ask me but of course it's football, anything could happen.

Not that I love Barcelona too much, I am neither Spanish nor catalan, so I don't care, but I do hate industrial football and the "pay to win" aspect of it, so I would rather see Barcelona win this season than Real Madrid.

The arrival of Hansi Flick has changed the whole game of Barcelona and this seems to favor Lewandowski a lot as he is the leading goal scorer for both league and the Champions League so there is every Chance of him winning the golden boot because Barcelona are doing well now in the Champions league and if they can keep it up then he will keep scoring more goals.

All three top teams in La Liga have an easy fixture this weekend and so they will all try to win their Matches as you said, Rayo Vallecano, Leganes and Getafe are all not tough teams and each team can win their matches and continue trailing each other because they are all just few points ahead of each other and any team that loses and drops point will drop down in the standings. It will be a competitive season since we are already seeing a tight race already even before mid season so right now it is uncertain who will emerge victorious.

While I do not want to say that Real Madrid isn't playing good, I wouldn't say they are playing bad neither and they are doing just fine. If you ask me the main reason why they are getting close is because Barcelona has been shit for a number of weeks now and that's the reason why real got this close. Obviously Real Madrid is still a good team in the sense that they are fighting for a title, and why wouldn't they, they are one of the two big teams there, but if Barcelona didn't fail to win, and like this past six games were all wins, just like how they did at the start of the season, then we would have a situation where they would be 10+ points ahead already.

But because Barcelona played horrific, that meant that whenever Real Madrid lost points, like for example to bilbao, that still didn't mean anything because Barcelona would in return lose points as well so that would allow Real Madrid to be always on the chase and that is how they are close to top now.

I totally agree with you. Besides that , I saw that Jude Bellingham Understands Mbappé very well. Those precise Passes in the style of Toni Kross, straight to his feet, were magnificent for me, what they did, and the best thing of all was that Guler Scored his good goal , For Madrid , there is only much praise left, but I see a Certain Inconsistency , I don't know if you remember, but when Ronaldo, Figo and Beckham played , it was impressive , it was a whole class of incredible players. Also, if Zizu joined them, it was a goal party , really something to like. That is the magic that I want to see again in this Ancelotti generation.

Vinicius is not fully fit yet but he must play for the team if the team needs it. Real Madrid know how important this match is for them and they must win this match anyway, so they are taking some risks with their most important weapon. Vinicius was ruled out for a month after suffering the injury, but was reinstated a month earlier. Now if Real Madrid win this match then maybe he will be rested for some matches again. But you fear that it might be a risk for Vinicius Jr. But I was looking at that risk because he's had enough rest after the injury so now he can play if he wants to.

I always say that Robert deserves the Golden Ball
It's not the first season he's played at the top and i dont understand why if they gave it to Benzema they didnt give it to him
he's very good, in my opinion he's a complete player
he still has 2-3 seasons left that he can play at the highest level unfortunately..

Honestly Barcelona performance was very fantastic when the season started, which their able to beat most of their opponents they face in their previous matches; but due to the lack of inconsistency there performance looks some how this days and if care is not talking they will soon drop points: Because currently Real Madrid is about to take over the top of the table from them, since there only ahead of the Real Madrid with just 2 points.

And I can see this days Real Madrid are also put some little efforts, even to say their facing challenges are against some teams, due to the some of their players that are not performing well during the match time, because a lot of people’s are complaining about Mbappé with the way his performance is going currently: that is not performing as team want.

The great form Lewandoski is in this season is definitely commendable. Barcelona's overall performance is very strong. At the same time, Lewandowski is in very good form. This is why Barcelona has been able to occupy the top spot in the La Liga table. At the same time, Barcelona is also in a good position in the Champions League.



Last season, Lewandowski played in 35 matches in La Liga. In 35 matches, Lewandowski was able to score 19 goals and assist 8. This season, Lewandowski played in 16 matches in La Liga. In 16 matches, Lewa scored 16 goals and assisted 2. Not only this, Lewa has also been able to perform well in the Champions League. Last season, Lewandowski scored only 3 goals in 9 matches in the Champions League. This season, he has been able to score 7 goals in only 5 matches.

Even though Barcelona is seen as being at advantage using the big name and home advantage,  a little look at the recent performance of both teams will make anyone have a change of mind. Atletico Madrid is in a wonderful form that can defeat any team in the La Liga at the moment. They have won all their recent matches which is a proof that they are not to be written off easily. On the other hand, Barcelona have diminish so much as they lost some and drew most of their recent matches. Going by this, I will be surprised if Atletico Madrid steal the show, so I will not be betting Barcelona to win.

The three teams at the top of the La Liga standings at this time will definitely continue to try to win in the next match because in the following week the three teams will face opponents who are not tough enough so the potential for the three teams to get full points is very large. So let's see if there will be a change in position this weekend because if one of the teams loses, of course the change in position will immediately occur this weekend, so when the team will try their best not to lose this weekend.

Barcelona may have not been very consistent this season as we all expect them to be but Robert Lewandoski has been very outstanding for the club this season despite his age, Robert Lewandoski has scored quite a number of goals this season for the club and has helped the team maintain their place at the top despite threats from their arch rivals Real Madrid. The most impressive part of it is that, most strikers whom are much more younger than him can't even perform at this level, which goes to show that the Polish man is at another level.

The match will be a very crucial match for both teams later, because so far both are competing tightly in the upper zone of the current la liga standings, so whoever wins later will of course make their position very safe as a challenger to the la liga title this season, madrid, athletico and Barcelona are 3 teams that are title contenders and of course every match will be very crucial for them.

In terms of performance, H2H, and betting odds, Barcelona are favourites to win the match, but the match that happens on the field is often different from what favorite on paper, so it is difficult to favour Barcelona in the match, especially at this time, Atletico Madrid have good ability and consistency to surprise their opponents as seen in their last few matches.

Lewandowski's achievements this season deserve our appreciation. We just have to know that Lewandowski is capable of being the top scorer because Barcelona currently has very quality midfielders and wingers even though most of the midfielders and wingers are still young. And this helped Lewandowski to return to a high level of productivity again in scoring goals. Yamal, as the attacking player who most often helps Lewandowski, deserves appreciation too. And as long as this magical boy is around, I think it will be very helpful for Lewandowski to continue to set more goal records this season. Not only Lewandowski but Rapinha has also regained his sharpness this season in the Hansi Flick era. And I think this team is lucky because it has succeeded in bringing in talented young players who help the senior players on this team.

The match will be quiet interesting because I don't think Barcelona's high line is going to work but given that the odds for Atletico Madrid I think Barcelona are favorite in the game but I hope Atletico Madrid will break down the Barcelona high line defence and win the game

Hopefully this can be the answer to the problems that Barcelona is currently experiencing, but Ronald Araujo, who has just recovered from his injury, of course still needs time to be able to return to his top performance and it is quite risky for Hansi Flick if he forces Araujo when the player has just returned to the team.

The match against Dortmund in the continuation of the Champions League match will of course be very difficult for Barcelona because they are currently in a very bad state with a series of defeats in the last few matches and also on the other hand Dortmund is improving when viewed from the team's performance side which makes Barcelona very difficult, even I don't think Barcelona can win in the next match against Dortmund.

I think even though Vinicius has recovered but Ancelotti will not let Vinicius play full time Ancelotti will definitely put Vinicius in the second half to be able to provide fierce resistance and also be able to make a comeback, meanwhile Ancelotti will give Mbappe a chance to atone for his mistakes and give his best.
The good news is not only that but Rodrygo is also certain to appear in this match he and Vinicius Jr are key players for Real Madrid so I can be sure Real Madrid will win against Atalanta.
