It was a wonderful night for Athletic Bilbao. They literally destroyed Cadiz by 4-1. Even though they got a red card in the first minutes of the second half it still didn't affect them badly. They still kept their dominance and scored another goal as well. Of course they were 3-1 ahead before the red card. But still this is a really good sign of them.

They have been really bad for many weeks until this game. They couldn't get even one win during these weeks. But this win today should help them very positively. They should continue getting positive results not to get away from top 6.

Should be a Perfect way for barcelona to have a bigger gap .

But you know what ... barcelona will have to face sevilla and villareal in the next two matches , won't be easy though .. having 6 points away from real madrid are not secure enough , but if they successfully make it over 10 points ... barcelona would be comfortable to finish it.

Athletico Bilbao was unstoppable yesterday as they scored alot of goals
They did what was most important by having all three points.
But I never saw the increase in the number of goals four good goals yesterday

Very logic win for athleteco belbao against cadiz with 4 goals to one, Even with a red card belbao did really well offensively and defensively and was able to score a goal with 10 players in the field, cadiz team have enough time to recover and escape from the relegation zone but they definitely need to be more efficient especially in the defensive term

Real Madrid have tight schedule and Ancelotti will be forced to rest his players regardless if they are injured or not. 3 days after Mallorca match, Real Madrid will play in Club World Cup in Morocco then they will have 2 games in La Liga in 3 days before facing 3 days later Liverpool in Champions League

With their current condition and playing at home, it is clear that this will make them very confident.
At the moment they haven't even tasted defeat since they last lost in El Clasico and of course Barcelona have the upper hand now.
But for Sevilla too even if their performance is not good enough recently but I think they will try their best to maximize the draw. Even though it's a little difficult with the current state of their defense, their record of the last 2 wins can be used as a morale booster now.

Matches against mid or low table teams are usually very challenging for Real Madrid, and the most points lost are against such teams. They actually try to turn up against the big la Liga boys

The Match against Mallorca is not going to be an easy one, especially if Benzema gets rested.

Indeed, in the first half, the game was quite boring, moreover with an illegitimate goal, this was disappointing. But, indeed, Real Madrid really often gave surprise and Stogner attacked in the second half. They often improved their performance and motivation in the second-half, moreover in the last minutes. After so much worries, finally they were able to defeat Valencia 2 - 0. This was a satisfactory result of the match. They could get full points, at least, they will not widen again the gap of the points between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Athletic Club is now still in the match with Cadiz. Interesting thing is that although Athletic Club got a red card, they were still able to add the amount of the goal. Now the goal is 4 - 1.

The match is still quite long and there is still a lot of time left, I think their focus is still on points and keeping the players fit especially at the moment the conditions are a little bad for some of their players at the moment.
They will face Mallorca but several players are certain to be absent on the other hand the Champions League is also getting closer. hopefully their players can recover at the right time.

The second half was much better especially seeing their condition in domination was indeed very good.
Two measurable assists from Benzema, an aiming shot from Asensio and a terrific pace from Vini really turned the second half upside down. This is what I am really waiting for from them because indeed with this condition it is clear that they can do better even though there are some players who have problems due to not being fit.
Although indeed for the next match it will still be a little difficult. Benzema is likely to be rested again due to a problem with his thigh in the game against Mallorca.

Terrible defense from Cadiz and Bilbao took advantage of those opportunity and they are leading the scorecard by 3 goals to 1 but the problem with Bilbao is that Yuri Berchiche received his second yellow card for the match and now they are reduced to 10 man in the field and Bilbao will be trying their best to hold on the lead and i am expecting Cadiz to score alteast one more time.

Edit: Another terrible defense from Cadiz and Bilbao scored again  .

Yes, in fact today I have seen a lot of news regarding Mallorca, if they have been a team that have improved remarkably, and that is something excellent, the League has been getting good, on the one hand they have a Barcelona fighting not to let themselves tie or take away the With Real Madrid, that is something that is not very easy to achieve, because Real Madrid is hot on their heels, and that is something that would make every team be very alert and without any kind of peace of mind, and for these teams like the Mallorc is good, because it is known that the good teams are always in the first places, but this, having some problems, they cannot realize so quickly and it is reflected in the results.

Well, you have shown how beautiful these guys have played football, and I totally agree with you, for me Asencio was the one who scored one of the best goals I've ever seen, honestly seeing how this player can develop a certain style of play, he must to be considered a player who should be in Ancelotti's starting eleven all the time, I liked the combination, Luka Modric also did very well, he didn't hesitate, his passes were magnificent, I can't say less about him I don't think for now he Real Madrid has to get stronger, maybe a little in defense but so far they have done very well, they showed very nice football.

Real Madrid midfielder set to sign a four-year contract with the club

Ancelloti's statements give hope that the return of Karim Benzema isn't far away. The absence of Karim Benzema will be felt but good thing it will not be for so long because I will love to see Benzema feature against Liverpool in the champions league knockout. Militao's injury also is a big disadvantage for Real Madrid, I just hope they can cope with this in the next games.

But indeed in this case it is still a little serious because indeed the schedule is getting tighter at the moment plus the conditions of their players are also not all fit and now there must be Militao and Benzema who must be absent.
It's going to be a bit tricky but such a blessing for Ceballos because in any case for the next few games I think he will still be trusted as an attacking midfielder in Madrid following Camavinga who still has to replace Mendy at fullback.

It was a good game for Real Madrid and it felt like 2017 Real to me somehow. Nacho, Modric, Kross, Asensio, Benzema, Carvajal... Wow, it's still very enjoyable to watch the men of the legendary 2017, 2018 staff. It's hard not to admire Kroos and Modric. It's incredible to still play at such a high level at this level. Their peers are going to MLS, China, Arabian Peninsula etc. Really great players. If Real Madrid, who did not make an offer to Ronaldo, still keeps Modric in the team at this age, then the guys know something. This is the most logical transfer Real Madrid has made after Ronaldo's transfer, Vini jr. If they manage to keep it, Vini will carry Madrid for at least 10 years. an incredible player. Although real madrid is a winner team, they should transfer 4 5 world stars this summer, this will not work with the transition game, they will be like manchster united.

Deserved victory. Game where the home team was the only one that existed. Real Madrid dominated at will throughout the game, creating countless chances, a more solid team and with better teamwork unlike previous games. Valencia completely collapsed and simply dedicated themselves to defending as well as possible to avoid a scandalous win, this game was the worst so far this season.
While Valencia closes a disappointing and forgettable first part of the season, barely 20 points, and be careful that they are one point above relegation

I completely agree with you. Given Bilbao's recent record, predicting the result of this match is quite difficult. Taking their low odds may not be the safest choice, but you never know. Sometimes the bookies are correct. However, given Bilbao's recent streak of defeats, it may be prudent to remain cautious.

Cadiz, on the other hand, has a chance to win today, particularly considering they are fighting their way out of the relegation zone. They may come into this match with a bit more drive to win, but playing on the road may be difficult. I believe it will be an interesting contest, with both sides vying for victory. I suppose we'll just have to wait and see what happens.g

Atletico Madrid must have taken a deep breath after finishing the previous week three points ahead of their closest opponents in the standings. While they were winning Villarreal and Betis both lost their matches. This was a great help for them in top four. Their task of qualifying for the Champions League is still quite difficult but they would make use of such situations as well. Their next match is against Getafe home. I expect even a more comfortable win than the Osasuna match.

Most probably Villarreal and Betis both would win this time because they don't have tough fixtures this time. I don't know about Villarreal but I think Betis are more promising than them to stay in the race for the Champions League until the final weeks.

Real definitely needs to build around that defense, but it's not that easy to do considering the situation they were in, it's clear that they are not having too much economical freedom to buy great defenders, it's taking a bit of time for them to do that, they are willing to spend hundreds of millions towards Mbappe, but not willing to do it for a great defender.

In any case, I believe if they could get some more people to the wing backs, that could make them much better, but that will require a lot of money. Still using Carvajal at that age, and not getting someone great there at a very young age, like someone who is 22 years old or something? That's a wrong move, they need a young star there.

Yes, I am also very satisfied with Real Madrid's victory, hopefully it will continue to be consistent considering the 5 point distance with Barcelona. Btw, Ceballos played well, he deserves to be the next starting eleven. Asensio scored a beautiful goal with his trademark. Vini finished well. This goal proves that Vinicius Junior is one of the best young players in the world right now.

This goal is also an opportunity to prove yourself after often receiving criticism in the last few matches. Do not forget that Benzema played well with his 2 assists even though he only played 60 minutes.
