Real Madrid is in an extremely favorable position right now. Being rank 1, not having lost a single game and only one tie also demoralizes the opponent and now when they get the chance to play first and win, Barcelona knows that they can't even make up any points but essentially only do their job and not lose. Psychologically that is an edge to Real Madrid.

The clasico was kind of a tipping point to me. Up until then it was very even, but now Real can raise the pressure weekend after weekend. That's tough in La Liga as you know that the likelihood for the two top teams to give away games when they have a massive streak is very low.
I won't feel reluctant to call Real Madrid the best team in the whole of Europe. They have built quite a reputation for themselves. In the game against Sevilla I expected better from Sevilla because they started the game well and were able to equalize with a nice goal from Lamela before half time but failed to convert vital chances to keep them ahead and ended up losing the game and losing all three points to Real Madrid. Thanks to assists from Vinicius to give them upper hand in the game.

This is not quite the time to make judgments about the absolute best team in Europe. I would probably wait for a couple of final round Champions League games.

Apart from that how would you make a difference between Real Madrid and Manchester City at this point? How would you argue that aspect X or Y makes Real Madrid the better team? Because they haven't lost a game thus far? Well, La Liga isn't that strong and winning a clasico at home is of course possible for such a strong team. But does that make Real better than City? I hope we will find out soon and see the two meet each other in the CL games again. That would be amazing for many reasons Wink

The difference of 5 goals at this time does not make anything because Barcelona are still losing 3 points to Madrid.
It depends on how they don't lose consistency because once they don't play well then their points gap will definitely change.
For Real Madrid, it's still quite safe now because they don't need to think about the Champions League because they have already qualified but it's different from Barcelona.

Goal difference is unlikely to be of any significance as it is only the third indicator for determining the La Liga champion if points are equal:

- result in face-to-face meetings - points;

- result in face-to-face meetings - goal difference;

- total goal difference;

- the number of goals scored in all games.

- fair play.

Although, theoretically, Real and Barcelona can go on a par, and if Barcelona wins 3-1 in the return game, the situation will be completely equalized. In the Champions League, Barcelona has one fundamental game left - against Bayern, apparently there is no chance of reaching the playoffs, but Bayern must be beaten to overcome this complex.

Getafe Vs celta Vigo, the way I'm observing this match it seems that Getafe will win this match because celta Vigo is making a serious impact to score goal, i from the beginning my prediction was that celta Vigo will win or they draw the match because of the line up. It will be at of struggling before celta can equalize this match with this method of the team. Let us check before the remaining twenty minutes that left if they will be able to score 1 goal to equalize, scores celta Vigo 0: 1 Getafe
Good come back from celta vigo and match has ended with 1-1 draw. Celta should win this match as they were favorite and it was their home ground. If we consider about recent natches, Getafe is playing good. Getafe scored a goal first and at the last moment of this match celta had managed to score a goal to equalize the match. Overall good statistics from the end of celta vigo.

Celta vigo played an effective game last time out but couldn't capitalize on their chances and had to concede defeat. This time, as the hosts, they will be able to score against Getafe. They are already considered favorites, which is normal.
Real madrid and barcelona seem to be in a good race this year. There is only one win difference between them.
So far, home "Celta Vigo" continue try to take advantage of opportunities to scored, but it's not easy and same with your post regarding in their last game, happening again today at this matches. Interest, on the other side Getafe had opportunity to score, and as a result they away team managed to win in the first half with Enes Unal as the executor in this match. The match in 10 minutes will end at this time 0-1, "Getafe" if they win this match they will sit in 13th position.

Rayo vallecano played incredible. Cadis didn't even exist in the face of this pressure. Vallecano even scored an own goal because Cadiz couldn't score Cheesy
Sociedad lost a game in which they played better. Playing with 75% possession and not finding a goal seems to mean that the offensive line is inadequate.
Real madrid beat sevilla 3-1 and extended their unbeaten run for another week. After taking 3 points with 3 goals, madrid is progressing flawlessly.

Really what was this match? All the goals from only one side and also multiple red cards. There was complete chaos in this match. Cadiz looks like they were just taking part in that match. The match was completely dominated by Rayo Vallecano. Obviously, 3 red cards in one match are unexpected. At one point it felt like I was watching a WWE match Grin Grin.

Anyway, Cadiz is not improving their performance and it does not feel like they will be able to get out of the relegation zone anytime soon. I am not going to be surprised if they actually get relegated this season.

Rayo Vallecano is in 10th position on the table. They are supposed to be a mid-table team in my opinion. And I think they are doing quite well by their standards.

Real Madrid will host Girona at the Bernabeu stadium this week. Girona itself is now in 17th position in the standings just one level above the relegation zone now occupied by Getafe, Cadiz and Elche. Judging from anywhere this match is very clear will belong to Real Madrid.
Meanwhile, Barcelona will travel to Valencia this week with a winning mission. When compared to the opponents that Real Madrid will face, Barcelona's opponents this time are stronger. But I still have faith in Barcelona that they will take home 3 points from the Mestalla Stadium.

The interesting thing is that neither Real Madrid nor Barcelona are allowed to make a mistake. In that case, either they will equalise or Barcelona will be 3 points further away, and they clearly don't want that, you can see it in their eyes. I'll be watching the Barcelona vs Valencia match, obviously this match is much more interesting than the cream match, even though the winners are more than clear
It is in times as these that the magic of Messi would have played to pivotal role in ensuring a sure winning against Valencia. Any lapses on the Barca side is sure to make their closest contender, Real Madrid to have a clapse grasp on the cup.  Real Madrid have solid games ahead, and they are the most favoured team also to contend as final champion of the title.
This weekend however got better thoughts for the big teams in their various matches this weekend. Let's hope Barca recovered well after their last defeat and are able to have found a way to compensate for that in tactics and substitutions.

Real Madrid and Barcelona have impressed in Laliga so far with only 3 points adrift between 1 & 2 positions.
Real Madrid seems to be safe to get 3 points in the next match considering that Girona is not a very strong opponent to make Real Madrid drop points.

Meanwhile, Barcelona, ​​who has now recovered from the El Clasico defeat, also seems to have a good chance of being favorites in the match against Valencia. Here Barcelona is superior in terms of quality and consistency of the match even if they fail to win against Bayern Munich in the Champions League matchday 5.

The probability of both teams Real Madrid or Barcelona both winning, so it's not really surprising if these two teams both win in their respective match this weekend.

if barca wants to get closer to madrid points then the other solution is that they must be able to excel on goal difference from madrid, currently the goal difference between the two doesn't look much different even though barca is scoring more goals

madrid is an amazing team, in laliga only barca can compete with them, no other team is capable so that's barca's hope is madrid had bad luck and lost to an unexpected team in la league, although the chance is small it can happen

playing in the Camp Nou wasn't a good omen for Athletic de Bilbao. A draw or victory would've been very helpful to stay in the top five, but now they are sixth with the same points as the following, Villarreal, after losing 4-0 against Barça.

Maybe the third position was too much for a team like that, but who knows, some times a team has to let the fans dream big.
I always respected Bilbao a lot, we are talking about a team that only gets player one certain region, and nobody else as far as I know, and they still manage to do great even with that.

Many teams try to find players from all over the world and they are still not as good as Bilbao even with that, sure Bilbao has a good amount of money to buy those players, but other teams have the whole world they could choose players from and they still not do as well as Bilbao. Sure they lost now, but if you ask me, any season Bilbao stays in La Liga with their current set of rules for players they get, is a big achievement in itself and I do not see it going any other way.

Totally agree. As I posted a few weeks ago in this same thread, their policy for selecting players is one of the most restrictive in the world (if not the most). Simplifying a lot, you have to be Basque in order to play in the team (in its broadest definition: Navarreses and Basque-frenchs are welcome); otherwise, you could still qualify to play in Athletic Club, if you were trained in sports in a Basque quarry.

On the other hand, they have never in their entire history been downgraded, so it is more than 100 years that they have stayed playing in the first division, or La Liga. It is a merit worthy of recognition.

Against Valencia I think Barcelona will not be difficult to win the match, but of course they cannot be underestimated especially because they are playing in front of thousands of fans. Valencia's spirit cannot be underestimated, so Barcelona need to be aware of the worst in that match. It's a good thing if Barcelona wins the match against Bayern Munich because it will make modd players to continue to win other matches.
in the last 5 matches played by valencia, they only got 1 win while Barca only suffered 1 defeat against Madrid only, the strengths of the two are very much different, so Barca is the favorite team to win in this match. I agree with what you said, Barca should be able to win the match against Bayern later so that the players' mentality is maintained and stable.

Valencia's performance has been quite good this season. But I don't think they can pick up points against opponents like Barcelona. Barcelona is a very strong team. However, Valencia's main goal in this match will be to draw the match and share the points. Barcelona's attack must play well. Barcelona will fail to get three points against Valencia if the attacking players do not perform well.

Actually what brought them to this position was not only Barcelona but indeed from the 4 matches they did of course this was their main factor.
They couldn't do well in the last 4 matches. 2 Draws and 2 loses is definitely not something good for them if they really want to play better than the previous season.
Currently the chance is still there because Villarreal has not returned to its previous performance but indeed in the last few games of course Villarreal is better.

Athletic Club is also looking for these points since they lost against Atlético de Madrid last week and conceded the third place (currently they are sixth so they have to win if they want to get to the fourth place now -the third is for Real Sociedad with 22 points).

What a bad luck to be in that position and having Barcelona as an opponent. I expect the match to be entertaining.
The unfortunate or the bad luck is a team that is in the relegation zone, if Bilbao is still in the top ten it is still good for them because Bilbao from season to season has indeed become a team that competes in the top ten. Unless Bilbao are currently in the relegation zone or outside of the top ten, then you can say Bilbao are unlucky or have had bad luck.

But apart from that the coach of Bilbao is Valverde, which we know before that Valverde had coached Barcelona and with that, then of course this match is still not easy for Barcelona. However, since this match will be held at the Camp Nou then of course Barcelona have a greater chance of winning, because basically Barcelona are in their best form this season but they are not lucky enough.

In another match Barcelona got a slightly tougher opponent, Valencia can't be underestimated, they could make Barcelona drop points if Xavi squad can't control the match well. There is no other choice for Barcelona but to win the match, Barcelona must take advantage of a good opportunity because Valencia are winless in the last three matches.
Instead of talking about a match that is a bit far away, then I think the Barcelona vs Bayern Munich match will be much more interesting.
Following the positive trend of Barcelona so far that is unbeaten at home, then I think the motivation of the players will be very good to face Bayern Munich. I believe that Bayern are a strong team both at home and away, but Barcelona will force itself to try to win full points in that match in a few days.

Against Valencia I think Barcelona will not be difficult to win the match, but of course they cannot be underestimated especially because they are playing in front of thousands of fans. Valencia's spirit cannot be underestimated, so Barcelona need to be aware of the worst in that match.

Barcelona's 4-0 victory at Camp Nou over Athletic Bilbao on week 11 of La Liga, now Xavi Hernandez's squad has managed to keep Barcelona's goal without conceding a goal during the 6 matches that took place at Camp Nou.
Of the six home games, starting on August 14 against Rayo Vallecano until against Athletic Bilbao yesterday, Barcelona have scored a total of 15 goals.
In LaLiga, the competition for points between Barcelona and Real Madrid is very close. If Real Madrid suffered one defeat then Barcelona would put first place. But I see LaLiga not the main focus of these two teams. But Real Madrid can play more relaxed because in the Champions League group phase they are close to a safe position. Meanwhile, Barcelona had to fight harder considering that they only got 4 points in the Champions League.
On that factor that makes Barcelona a little burdened even though here (La Liga) they have just made a good record after beating Athletic Bilbao. I think the competition situation with Real Madrid will be tight until the end of the competition. The two of them would wait to see who slipped first.

For Barcelona's achievement, Xavi is now ready to welcome Bayern Munich in the Champions League which will be their important match to win three points.
I think the Champions League is different from LaLiga. Even though in LaLiga you can play freely and get consecutive wins, in the Champions League, of course, every team will fight harder to win. Although Bayern have put in a safe position, of course they will play professionally. But we can't confirm Julian Nagelsmann's squad yet. Whether Julian will field players according to home match.
I don't think Bayern Munich will lower the quality of their game when they visit Camp Nou just because they already look safe at the top of Group C. I'm sure J. Nagelsmann wants his players to play their best.

Of course it will be a little different and against Bayern they will have to try until the final whistle because it will be very disappointing if they have to lose or draw this match, considering with a result like that their chances in the Champions League are clearly closed.
With the worst possibility of them failing to advance to the next round it is clear this will have a huge impact on their finances and of course this is not what Barcelona expect.
