Real Madrid when playing at home is always the favorite even in times when they are not performing that well in the La Liga let alone nowadays where they are enjoying perfect form both in La Liga and in the Champions League.Barcelona did impose their game as the stats are better for Barcelona in this game but Real Madrid were more pragmatic when it comes to scoring goals.Nevertheless the La Liga will be fought between these two teams this year as the points difference is small at just 3 points.
Real Madrid are still solid enough that they are hard to beat and now lead LaLiga by eliminating Barcelona at the Bernabeu, is it because the quality of Xavi Hernandes' strategy is still not good enough even though their players can be said to be talented, indeed I point to Xavi who is still immature in this regard although in LaLiga has become a tough competitor to Real Madrid but in other big matches Xavi still can't win it.
