I feel like it is really difficult to see Real Madrid gaining with Barcelona too much to take the lead from them and win the league title.

Because Barcelona are still able to keep the gap between them quite balanced. I don't think they would maintain a very bad form in the league while their main focus is on there already. After a break of a few years in the league Barcelona finally have a big chance to become the champions. They wouldn't gave it away easily. Their simple mistakes are happening less often than Real Madrid during the season.
Barcelona will not give out their opportunity of becoming the La Liga champions once again.
If they would want to do it is not at this time that they are already close to Success.
The major factor that can make Barcelona to lose the title race to Real Madrid is injury.
But looking at the current squad of Barcelona, you will understand that almost all the players are available.

This will rather make it difficult for Real Madrid to penetrate.
Real Madrid should simply taking the Champions League and forget about the La Liga which Xavi has worked for
And this season the opportunity for Barcelona to win the title is very wide open. because the focus of Real Madrid is being diverted by the match in the champions league. because it seems true that Real Madrid is currently more focused on success in the Champions League. and while Barcelona is currently only focused on winning the title in Laliga. Tomorrow Barcelona will play against Valencia. and I'm sure Barcelona will get full points back from this fight. and will further strengthen their position at the top of the standings.

I don't think it was Ancelotti's tactical fault on the contrary, Real Madrid were able to control the ballposition more and play much better but they were just unlucky in the first leg of the Copa Del Rey against Barcelona.
Real Madrid did have not too bad match and they created some opportunities to get goals but unluckily they did not score any goal. They have good enough performance to give them belief that they can beat Barcelona in a second leg and win in aggregated result.

About confidence, I don't think I can find any club that have very solid confidence about themselves like Real Madrid in a long history as well as in the past two seasons. All challenges they passed through to win Champions League in the past season prove a lot about their confidence and ability to beat biggest opponents.

Quote
and for the second leg later I think these two teams still have the same chance to beat each other, in fact I think the percentage of these two teams is still 50-50.
With Real Madrid, until the final whistle, don't say you are winners against them.

Quote
and it is true that since Xavi has coached Barcelona there have been very many positive changes that have occurred and especially in this season which has made Barcelona at the top of the La Liga standings temporarily.
Xavi has been doing his great job and has brought big improvements to Barcelona but he has to go too far to achieve what Carlo Ancelotti has gotten in his career. Winning La Liga and Coppa del Rey in a same season will be a milestone season for Xavi management career.

Barcelona just play in the best way that can lead them to victory. I think Barcelona already understand Real Madrid very well and the of playing that will be easy for them to defeat Real Madrid. So surprising that in as much Real Madrid played well and more impressive than Barcelona they still could not win the game. The defensive patter Barcelona used in the game was the reason of victory for them.
Almost all of real madrid's tactics can be read easily by xavi. It can from the decision already taken by xavi to give advice to its club for doing full defense against real madrid. i am aware how frustated real Madrid's players were when it was losing 1 goal due to its own goal. The second leg gonna be an even more difficult match for madrid. Ancellotti needs to think about another tactic and stop to use the same tactic against barcelona. Madrid will be losing in the second leg if ancellotti keeps using the same strategy against barcelona. Putting all of players to be fully in defensive mode was making madrid just like faced the big wall.

Real Madrid didn't have a lot of solutions to the strong defense of Barcelona. And this is what Barcelona is counting on. They took the first difficult hurdle by collecting the three points and scoring a goal in Madrid. That is more than they expected. I am sure they would have been ok with a draw and then try to win it at home.

Now the situation is quite different and I think it is not a 50-50 game anymore. It is more like 58-42, probably not quite 60-40. Also, some of the players that were now missing in Madrid will return until the second leg if everything goes according to plan. That is Lewandowski, Pedri, but also Dembele as far as I know. That is a whole different story for their offensive game and another threat that Real Madrid has to take care of during the game while they need to try and play offensive themselves.

Just after the game finished many Real Madrid fans started attacking Barcelona because of their playing style they said Barcelona was defending during the game all the time and they didn't deserve victory at all because Real Madrid was controlling the game more than Barcelona and unlike other El Clasico we usually saw real Madrid had more successful passes comparing to Barcelona while the most important thing is the result this game is which Barcelona could bear Real Madrid even without players like Lewandowski and Perdi.
It should not be a big problem caused by we have seen how long the rivalry between madrid and barcelona have been going on. The same thing gonna happen once barcelona lose against real madrid and then its fans will be mocking barcelona as well.
This is normal in football once fans from madrid was mocking barcelona due to its play style is pretty much the same like parking bus strategy that used by some clubs in the past.

To be honest, if it's really entertaining to see that how the fans between real madrid and barcelona are mocking each other.  Cheesy
This is a common thing in the football.

Barcelona team managed to defeat Real Madrid by performing brilliantly. Real Madrid created some great chances at home. But Barcelona's defense put in a superb performance to fend off those chances.

The major factor that can make Barcelona to lose the title race to Real Madrid is injury.
But looking at the current squad of Barcelona, you will understand that almost all the players are available.
Barcelona players are not available. Most of their best players are out injured. They are without Lewandoski, Dembele, Pedri, Christensen and Gavi for the match against Valencia tomorrow due to a suspension. They are just seven points ahead of Madrid at the moment and a loss to Valencia will reduce that to four points if Madrid wins against Betis. Now here is the tricky part, Barca will play Bilboa next and we all know how much of a pain in the ass Bilboa can be to Barcelona. After Bilboa they will play Real Madrid. So if Barcelona don't handle the next three matches they have very well they could find themselves just one point ahead of Madrid or worst, below Madrid. They can only hope for Madrid to keep been inconsistent in the league.

I think the Barcelona team will be able to put up a solid performance even though several Barcelona players are out of the squad. Because Barcelona is not relying on any specific player now. In the last match, we saw they won against Real Madrid. And against Madrid, they were able to win only because of their brilliant match strategy. It will not be easy for Barcelona to win the next match against the Valencia team. But my guess is Barcelona will win or the match will be a draw. I don't think Barcelona will lose.

I don't know what to think of Real Madrid after they lost the last Elclassico with Barcelona but looking at the first and second leg, I think it's a settled match since Real Madrid won the first leg while Barcelona won the second leg both away matches, how hilarious this turned out.
Real Madrid should be able to win against Betis because Fekir would be absent in that match and looking at their recent matches, they are lagging behind and that should secure 3 point for Madrid if they are serious. However, the question is, will Barcelona afloat in one place to see Real Madrid comes close to them, they will likely win Valencia even as their good squad is injured.

Real Sociedad is the third team in the league and they are currently one of the best teams in La Liga. There is an important match that is going to take place tonight between Real Sociedad and Cadiz. Technically, Real Sociedad has a better chance than Cadiz, mostly because of the recent performance that we saw from Real Sociedad compared to Cadiz. In addition, if you take a look at the last five games between Real Sociedad and Cadiz, Real Sociedad won all of them.
Unfortunately, Real Sociedad couldn't get full points because it ended with a draw, It seems Atletico Madrid will benefit from this result. Cadiz also lucky they very great to get one points from this match, and with this result Cadiz can break Real Sociedad good record winning streak in head to head. Statistically this game Real Sociedad is better in ball possession and also some of their opportunity, but Cadiz really could make a surprise.
Sociedad only can able to dominate the match but there were no good opportunities to scores goals even in the second half Cadiz almost to scored goal but it was only hitting the crossbar and i don't know why Sociedad always be repeating their mistakes for every seasons that they have a habit always be performing poor and cannot managed their consistency if the league almost reach to end of season

Sociedad only can able to earn 2 points from 3 matches and their position on standings league are really in danger because possibly Atletico Madrid can overtake their position if they can overcomes Sevilla today

In tonight's match, Real Sociedad is likely to get a win, even if only by a very narrow score. I'm sure they will try to win against Cadiz, because so far, Cadiz have only won in a few matches, and they are the only team that is in the top 14 from the top of the standings, so supposedly Real Sociedad will be superior and easier to win.
Sociedad gets draw against cadiz which is a shame for a club that has been dominating the match with 73% ball possessions. The fact is that ball possessions meant nothing these days and i have learned how efficient the attack will be playing bigger in determining how many goals that will be able to be made. Sociedad has been trying so hard and it has been making so many shots but only two shots were on target.

real sociedad failed to steal fuill points from weak team as it's making so many inefficient attack against cadiz which is always doing defense. What a very bad result for sociedad. Im really disappointed with the result.

Luka modric needs to be replaced. he had a good chance but he was not able to do final execution. His shot was not even on target. Barcelona has got less ball possession but it was able to give the same pressure through the use counter attack. The goal that happened with madrid was caused by own goal. Barcelona and madrid played equally in the last match of copa del rey. Benzema tried to make a goal but it was getting annulled due to the off side. Some players like modric get older. It can be seen from his performance in the last match against barcelona was not so good.
Luka Modric is helpful for Real Madrid if they use him appropriately. They can not use Modric like when he was young, because at his 37 age, he is no longer able to play 90 minutes for all matches. In World Cup 2022, he still played well but Croatia had to replace him by younger midfielders in some matches. Modric can be useful if Real Madrid plan to use him only one half of each match and in future, he will more probably stay on bench at match debuts and only join if Real Madric need big changes in attacking.


I have the exact opposite opinion of you.
Despite turning 37 years old, Luka Modric is still showing high form and is an irreplaceable pillar at Real Madrid. While at the same age, many other class players have gradually lost their peak form, typically Ronaldo and even Messi. But that does not seem to happen with the Croatian midfielder, Modric still played the full 90 minutes in the matches and did not show any fatigue, did not fall behind. At the last World Cup, Luka Modric made a great contribution to helping Croatia win tickets to the semi-finals.

With his form intact and not looking "old", Modric is too deserving of a new contract at the Bernabeu, not a replacement.


I agree with you, majority of players at his age completely lost their format and this happen with almost all football players but we can see that modric still doing very well, a New contract will be a good decision in my opinion and the team will surely not regret it
Barcelona is the best team in La Liga. The team players have been able to strengthen the base of the team tremendously. Besides, the coach of the team, Xavi, is taking the team forward by arranging extraordinary talents.

Surprising to see Real Madrid to have ZERO shots on target against Barcelona. Even though they managed to keep 65 percent of the possession for the match. In the end, an own goal decided their fate but its incredible effort from Barcelona to keep a team like Real Madrid to not even get a single shot on target.

We saw Real Madrid's dominance throughout the match. Real Madrid players had 65% of the ball possession. Besides, they attacked a lot. Madrid had 13 shots in the entire match. But they can't be made any on-target shots. The performance of Barcelona's defenders was outstanding in this match. I would say that Barcelona was able to win at the Santiago Bernabeu only because of the excellent performance of the defenders. Barcelona won but their performance was poor. Xavi was tactical in this match. Perhaps his aim was to draw the away match. But Barcelona is lucky. They managed to win.

I hope that real madrid will consider bellingham as a replacement for modric. Real betis gonna be a very hard game for madrid for sure. Betis is now placed in the top 5 under atletico madrid. The draw may become the outcome of the match.
Madrid needs to perform better than when it was against barcelona in previous match. Madrid is always facing hard way to make goal once its opponent used fully defensive strategy.
Bellingham is a box-to-box midfielder and he is not a play maker like Modric. I am not sure that Real Madrid actually need Bellingham as they have Camavinga, Tchouameni and Valverde in midfield. However, it's difficult to find good play maker like Modric in modern football. Such players now barely appear and I have not seen any young player has potential to become new Modric.
