There is no doubt that Barcelona played very well. They have been able to continue the winning streak. Apart from the match against Osasuna, we have seen good performances from Barcelona players in every match. As usual, Barcelona's overall performance in the match against Espanyol was very composed. And because of that, a very easy win for Barcelona in today's match as well.
Barcelona seem to be invisible at moment after beating Espanyol by 3-1 at the Spotify camp today thereby sending a clear message to the Serbian side whom they would be meeting next in the Uefa champions league. Barcelona had previously thrashed Bayern Munich and Real Madrid respectively in their previous encounters scoring eight goals and conceding only 1 against the two sides. The Catalan side seem to have improved greatly from what we saw last season under Xavi Hernandez and right now are looking like a team that are ready to reclaim their place in Europe as one of the kings of European football.
Barcelona are the super stars this season in the la liga they took a new shape this season, they have recorded about 33 points. It's a new one they have show more consistency than even Madrid, Madrid have not been consistent at all. And Barcelona game today against Espanyol, was a mind blowing game because before the second half they have already scored the three goals and the pattern of game that Barcelona is playing this season is actually favoring them. And Barcelona don't even need to send any messages to Serbian they already know what they are facing and who is going to win this game.
And for years now this is another best season that have seen Barcelona do very well, the way they change over night looks like magic Barcelona struggled through out last season, and all of a sudden when they got a new coach every thing changed eve given Madrid the beating of their life I don't think they have been beating before like that by Barcelona.
At least is an improvement and even Madrid will learn and it looks like they are accepting their faith of allowing Barcelona win the trophy this season, and can't even say anything of how the champions league will go or even end because it looks more confusing how everyone is picking up.
I also came across this information today, but this time, not on a social media platform as the rest .... This is also a different case as it's solely about one vinicius jrn in the real Madrid football club.
I learnt his contract would end in 2027 but he's not willing to renew it..I'm wondering why that is... What do y'all think? Does it have anything to do with the fact that he was denied the 2024 ballon d'or?... Was this initially his intensions even before now?...
Meanwhile, we've got so many other European and Arabian clubs already checking out for him...seems he wants to follow his idol's football.. illustration/citation
There are 3 seasons ahead, why should he rush? It is obvious that Real Madrid wants to increase his release clause to an even more cosmic level. According to leaks, the Saudis are preparing an offer for Vinny that has never been made in the history of football, maybe Vinny is ready to consider it. It seems they have already offered him several hundred million, I wouldn't be surprised if now after Vinnie continues to show himself they offer him a billion.

There is no doubt that Barcelona played very well. They have been able to continue the winning streak. Apart from the match against Osasuna, we have seen good performances from Barcelona players in every match. As usual, Barcelona's overall performance in the match against Espanyol was very composed. And because of that, a very easy win for Barcelona in today's match as well.
So far Lamine Yamal has scored 5 goals and 7 assists in 12 appearances in La Liga and therefore he has become the leader at the top of the standings for most assists. Raphinha is also in his best form where he has scored 7 goals and 6 assists in 12 appearances. Lewandowski has scored 14 goals in 12 appearances, while he has 2 assists to his name. Overall, Barcelona has so far scored 40 goals in 12 matches and is the only team to have done so so far this season compared to the other top 4 leagues.
Espanyol's victory against San Tirso with a score of 4-0 will certainly give Espanyol great potential to appear confident against Barcelona today and of course Espanyol will definitely try to win today's match against Barcelona even though they know Barcelona is a strong team but Espanyol will definitely fight as hard as possible to achieve victory in the later match.
I'm sure Hansi Flick will not underestimate Espanyol and surely Hansi Flick has seen Espanyol's match against San Tirso and Hansi Flick will definitely prepare a good strategy and formation so that he can make Barcelona win in the later match. Yes, the point is that Espanyol will definitely try to break down Barcelona's defense and what is certain is that Espanyol will try their best to win. Yes, there could definitely be surprises in the match.
Yes indeed, if you look at Barcelona's match, which has won 5 matches in a row and of course the performance of Barcelona's players is getting better, of course it makes me believe that an exciting match will happen today, but I will predict that Barcelona will still win because they are playing at home and of course their players also very good and in the later match it looks like I will bet on Barcelona winning with a score of 3-0.
While Espanyol may have some confidence boost because of that game, they would not be getting the win here if you ask me. Obviously Espanyol will try to do whatever they can to get three points out of this game, or even a tie if possible, but that is the case in any game, isn't it? No team just goes out to lose their games, even if you are the worst team in the league, you hope to win, and try your hardest to win, obviously sometimes we see teams give up, but most of the time teams that did not give up, ends up trying and doing their very best.I'm sure Hansi Flick will not underestimate Espanyol and surely Hansi Flick has seen Espanyol's match against San Tirso and Hansi Flick will definitely prepare a good strategy and formation so that he can make Barcelona win in the later match.

I am pretty glad we are going to see Espanyol on their best effort, they are going to try to win this game and that is a good thing, hopefully it will do just fine but Barcelona should still be getting the win pretty easily. The talent gap between the two teams is not even remotely close, so we can't really expect Espanyol to win, while there are surprising results and this could be one, I doubt it will be.
Barcelona beat Espanyol 3-1 and most likely the score will end like this and Barcelona will win. Dani Olmo made a great comeback by scoring 2 goals in the match. He will probably be the player of the match after the match. The difference in points is also increasing due to the postponement of the match between Real Madrid and Valencia. I think Barcelona will be the champions in La Liga this year. They are playing very good football in every way.
They always win very convincingly, playing some second-string players does not make Barcelona lose stability in attack. The first half is the key to being able to go through the next round more freely. Hansi Flick is very aware that in the second half Espanyol will not be able to turn things around so the rhythm of the game is a little more relaxed. Olmo has the freedom to pass the ball, open space, and score goals, he is a figure full of creativity. This year La Liga champions are unquestionable so Barcelona can shift their focus to the Champions League for a while.Barcelona's rhythm in the first half was very good, Barcelona feels like they have a 15-20 point difference against Real Madrid right now.
Many thought that Barcelona would play their second tier squad in this match. But Hansi Flick did not want to take any risk in this match. Because Barcelona rested Yamal and Raphinha in the match against Osasuna. And it was in this match that Barcelona was defeated. Perhaps this is why Hansi Flick did not want to take any risks in this match. So Barcelona played with their main squad. And managed to score 3 goals in the first half.
Dani Olmo is back with the squad after recovering from injury. And being able to perform well. We saw a great performance from Olmo in today's match against Espanyol. Dani Olmo scored two important goals today. Raphinha also managed to score a goal. We also saw better performances from Yamal and Lewandowski. However, Yamal and Lewa could not score any goals in this match.
Barcelona are really making things a lot difficult for other teams in the La Liga, the points difference between them and the second position assuming they do win their next fixture which was suspend due to flood disaster, still puts them 6 points away, unlikely if Barcelona will unfortunately lose two of their matches before they can be equalled by points. Barcelona momentum this season is aggravating to the point where they could remain unbeatable or not easily to be defeated by any team in the La Liga, their chances of becoming the winner of the La Liga this season is closer to 100% undoubtedly no team seems to stand in their way this time.

Barcelona played with their full strength squad in this match. And every player in the squad has been able to perform well in their respective positions. But I thought Barcelona would not concede a goal. But Barcelona conceded a goal in the second half. Barcelona did not try to attack much in the second half. Perhaps Hansi Flick did not want any of his squad players to suffer injuries. Because of this, Barcelona's performance in the second half was a bit slow.

Hansi Flick relaxed the game in the second half. Barcelona did not have half the effort of the first half. If they had continued the same game, they would have scored even more goals, but what was the point? Hansi Flick was after getting the three points without making the players struggle too much, and that's what happened.
Barcelona's rhythm in the first half was very good, Barcelona feels like they have a 15-20 point difference against Real Madrid right now.
What else do you expects from Barcelona in the second halve because they've already nets goals that would put them infront, Barcelona couldn't pressure more in the second half as they likely did in the first. The difference was made earlier and the visitors, Espanyol couldn't break anything, but managed to net a goal atleadt to cancel cleansheet. Barcelona headcoach, Hansi Flick knows what he's doing, securing back to back winnings and it's very important for them because they're top of the La Liga table. Barcelona are beating all oppositions that cross their paths and we consider that a huge improvement on their ends.

Yeah, super duper performance by the Flick side. I just monitored the match Barcelona played such beautiful football in the first half and scored 3 goals in 23 minutes. Yamal Jamal put the beautiful pass into the opponent box and Dani Olmo hit it hardly and put it into the net at 12 minutes. 2nd goal was scored by Raphinha in 23 by the beautiful pass of M. Casado. 3rd goal was also scored by Dani Olmo in 23 minutes. Barcelona had completed their job in just 23 minutes. Espanyol tried hard to gaol but great defense line of Barcelona made a offside trape and denied theirs goal opportunities. Similarly, the secod half was just a bit slow from Barcelona, due to which Espanyol seized the opportunity and scored a goal. Being a bit slow in the second half was due to one reason, which I think was the absence of Kounda because there was a lack of overlapping on the right back, as soon as Kounda entered the field, Barcelona's right side started creating chances. So I think Hansi flick needs to think about it.But anyway, Barcelona just claimed the 3 points successfully, and now I'm 100% sure that this season Barcelona will be champions of the league title
Madrid lost to Barcelona and are currently 6 points behind. Ancelotti must immediately plan to improve the team. It seems that Real Madrid must utilize the transfer market to add some players so that they have the ideal players. This is because they are very busy in several European and domestic competitions. If Ancelotti is still passive, I think Madrid will find it difficult to compete with Barcelona this season. This week Madrid's match was postponed. This is because of the disaster that happened in Valencia. I don't know how long this will last. But I hope the Valencia disaster ends soon. So that the competition will run normally again.
In your opinion, which other players should Real Madrid buy to compete with Barcelona? Is it a striker, midfielder or defender?So far Real Madrid has the best attack line in the world with an impressive total sales value that even exceeds the total value of other clubs in La Liga, but they are less productive than Barcelona. Vinicius, Kylian Mbappe, Bellingham and Rodrygo are good strikers, but somehow their performances so far haven't taken the world by storm.
Real Madrid also has midfielders whose quality is above the average for other club midfielders in La Liga and other leagues, but things are not easy. Having lots of great and quality players in the team doesn't necessarily mean the team will win everything, sometimes it is also difficult for coaches to find a suitable strategic approach to make their performance as good as expected. Real Madrid has so far been sluggish, indeed this is an unexpected thing when they were expected to win the treble this season.

Atletico Madrid managed to get a comfortable win against a rival that has recovered in recent weeks.Las Palmas had almost no shots in the match.With this win, their points increased to 23 while Las Palmas suffered their 7th defeat in the league.
Barcelona didn't make any mistakes either.They defeated their rivals Espanyol with goals in the first half and continued to widen the gap.2 goals came from Olmo and 1 from Raphinha.I think they will be champions this season under Hansi Flick.They are doing very well and they won't lose too many points.

I think it was unfortunate that Barcelona failed to win with a clean sheet, winning 3-0 from the first half did not make Barcelona ambitious to make more goals in the second half. Instead of making more goals in the second half, the reality is that Barcelona conceded in the second half and made the final score in this match 3-1. Indeed, it is not a problem to still achieve three points but anyway, because considering Barcelona played at home and also only played against Espanyol which is very close to the relegation zone then Barcelona should be able to succeed with a clean sheet victory. Anyway, congratulations to Barcelona who are still consistent with their winning streak so far, but I'm just disappointed with this result, as I was a -2.5 bet that required a win with a 3-goal gap.
Most likely because Hansi Flick is preparing his team for the next match in the UCL, so in the match against Espanyol Barcelona is not too ambitious to score many goals, in order to maintain the fitness of its players, it is feared that something unwanted will happen but still it is an impressive victory even though conceding one goal 3 points are still safe to get and they are currently sitting comfortably at the top with a fairly large points difference.Regarding the bet, I understand why you put a difference of 3 goals and Barcelona should indeed be able to score many goals.
Maybe that day was not your luck, my friend.
There were no goals scored in the second half, either Barcelona were not too ambitious to increase their lead, or Espanyol's defense started to be quite solid in the second half. However, it was clear that in the match, Barcelona dominated the match.
Meanwhile, to talk about UCL, in the next match Barcelona will face Red Star, and of course this should be a fairly easy match for Barcelona to be able to get three points. Because considering the performance of the two teams is quite different. Moreover, in this UCL event, the top of the Serbian league standings has never won at all, Red Star lost three UCL matches in a row, and now Red Star will face Barcelona, which could be a nightmare for Red Star, namely experiencing defeat for the fourth time in a row
Sevilla is currently 1-0 down at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium. They are playing against Real Sociedad and they can beat them. However, even if they cannot beat them, they should definitely draw this match because their rankings are very close. Kubo became the player who scored a goal for Sociedad. Sevilla is making attacks but has not yet scored. This team, which is competing to go to the European Championship in the Spanish league this year, should definitely earn points in such matches. The match is not over yet and there are almost 40 minutes left. They should score 2 goals in these 40 minutes and win the match, otherwise the European championships will remain a dream

As i predicted Barcelona wins the game with huge scores. The thing that i can't believe it if their off-side trap is always working. There is also a moment when their off-side trap narrowly saved them like in the picture above. I think the MVP in this game is their off-side trap.About the game, I credit Dani Olmo. He was superb. He scored two goals and had a banger game. He really helped the club beat a low-block team. he shall always be a part of starting line up.
Barcelona would be struggled to beat Espanyol who parked the bus without him.
I think all the players played well in this match including Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and also Lewandowski. These three attackers both helped in building attacks, as did the midfielders including Pedri, Dani Olmo and Cassado. Good defense must also be given a thumbs up, Cubarsi is a good young defender in Barcelona's current center back. Barcelona would be struggled to beat Espanyol who parked the bus without him.

While it is obvious that Barcelona will end up with a victory today, I doubt Real Madrid will end up losing any points neither, so we could just combine those two and end up making a bit decent return. Sure that wouldn't be a huge income at all, it would be small, but it's better than nothing and I believe it would gain us some value without a doubt. The best thing to do right now would be trying to end up getting something decent in our plans and with that we can do much better, we shouldn't really be worried about it.
I understand things may not look that simple for the time being, but we are going to see La Liga get a bit more complicated than this. So far, we had six point gap and that made everyone think Barcelona is better, but that can't be known this early on, we need to make sure that teams are playing straight up, but eventually we will see how Barcelona and Madrid will get closer in points and when that happens the league will be more fun again and odds will be better again.
