Real Madrid had a quite difficult game yesterday against A. Bilbao. But fortunately, they managed to win 1-0. A. Bilbao tried everything they could in the second half but it was just in vain. As this was the missing game of each team, things are clearer in the league table now. Real Madrid are 7 points ahead of Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad. But Atletico Madrid have a missing game too so this look could change.
Atletico Madrid have their next match against weak opponent Mallorca. Probably ATM will win the match, and they could reduce the point gap with Real Madrid by winning the next match. On the other hand, Real Madrid has made their position strong at the top of the leaderboard by winning against Athletic Bilbao. RM is also favourite in their next game, but I think they will have a draw against Real Sociedad.

I just can't wait to watch the next big game in the league: Real Sociedad - Real Madrid. It is a big game as Real Sociedad are also having a marvelous season now. They are at the third place in the table now and there is a gap of seven points between them and R. Madrid. R. Sociedad lost their last game and obtained a draw before that. I think they will do everything they can to win the game. But I see that they weren't able to beat R. Madrid here in the last two games. The most secure option looks like both teams to score for this one.
Match week 16 will certainly be a test and also an opportunity for real sociedad to prove if they really deserve to be contenders for the title this season, Real sociedad are currently in third place and have a difference of 7 points from madrid who are at the top of the standings, if they succeed Beating Madrid in that match, of course, will further shorten their point difference and this opens up opportunities for Real Sociedad to stay on the championship path.
I have just checked their head-to-head matches in Santiago Bernabeu and seen that Real Madrid lost to Athletic Bilbao by 2-1 in the last one. It was a Super Cup game though but it still counts as an official match in the end. 
But before this match, Real Madrid became the winner by 3-1. And I agree with you that Athletic Bilbao have a potential to make big teams sad. But I still wait for Real Madrid to win even if it is by a one-goal difference.
But before this match, Real Madrid became the winner by 3-1. And I agree with you that Athletic Bilbao have a potential to make big teams sad. But I still wait for Real Madrid to win even if it is by a one-goal difference.Opportunities for Madrid's chances of Madrid as many say 60%, and while Bilbao for quite a slight prediction, which is around 17% based on Real Madrid achievements that can only be very good. I am not lost to be sure of the game Bilbao who now appears, they can become the most unexpected club with the acquisition of scores is very low. Plus the difference that is far from Real Madrid, of course giving Real Madrid opportunities to become invincible D = until the end of the season.
I believe, Real Madrid will be able to win this season's La Liga title because they are the strongest team right now. And also the hardest rival of them which is Barcelona had some really big problems and still are rather low on the table. So that must have been a kind of head start for real Madrid. And now they seem to be in really good form and position right now.
We have all watched Barcelona start to emerge and show its existence in La Liga with a new motivation from Xavi. Some of the fans began to look forward to returning Barcelona players to be able to face RM. Even though they could play in January, it will be a long time and there could be a lot of change in strategy between the two. The position of Barcelona itself must continue to follow the points behind. While Real Madrid itself continues to be unbeaten.
Yeah, things are going in the way just Real Madrid would like now. Currently, they have a five-game winning streak in the La Liga. And they have a quite nice gap with Atletico which are at the second position now (7-point gap). Real Sociedad have the same points with Atletico too and they are Real Madrid's next competitor to beat. But this time may not be that easy. A. Bilbao game was a hard one too for Real Madrid and this could be even tougher. But I don't think they would lose either.

But Atletico Madrid have a missing game too so this look could change.
I saw it like that too, the match was difficult for Madrid because Real Madrid's game was not optimal in that match, even Bilbao played quite well even though they lost at the Bernabeu, even I saw that Courtois had to work hard enough to save his goal from being conceded due to the attacks of the bilbao players, but indeed the quality of the real madrid players was clearly superior and they did not give up so they were able to score a goal in the 40th minute and at the same time became the only winning goal for madrid in the match.
Only 1 score they can score with Atletico Bilbao, even with all their abilities. but the victory was quite slim and allowed Atletico Bilbao's players to easily fend off all attacks by Real Madrid. I personally applaud how a club like Bilbao is confident against Real Madrid. Even though their position is very different though. Bilbao overwhelmed Real Madrid's forwards and could not add to his goal coffers.
A great opportunity for Real Madrid to strengthen their lead. I think that Real Madrid should win today, but the victory is unlikely to be easy and we are unlikely to see many goals - judging by the statistics, Athletic has the best defense in the championship at the moment. They conceded only 10 goals in 14 matches. We can say that today Real will have an exam on the ability to pass a strong defense.
And they should be taking every opportunity as they cannot really afford to leave out there the points that need to be taken not just from the very weakest of the rivals, but also from mid-table rivals such as the recent Athletic de Bilbao or even some more serious contender like Seville that may very well mark the difference between achieving the title of getting to the point in which you need to win the last three games and hope for someone else to fail. As of now, there seems to be a clear performance line, is just a question of keeping up and resisting.
So far, everything is going well for Real, despite the fact that Athletic had chances yesterday, they did not have Benzema to realize them
The next game will be no less difficult for Real - away against Real Sociedad, which is in the leading group and the bookmakers estimate its chances as quite serious:
3,35 - 3,45 - 2,21

Real Madrid is only targeting a narrow victory, because after getting their first goal then Real Madrid relaxed their attacks but still with good ball possession. But yes, it was good enough and fortunately, Bilbao was not able to take advantage of the opportunities it got throughout the second half. Considering that Real Madrid will have tough opponents in the next match, Real Madrid will face Real Sociedad, Inter and Atletico. So it's quite reasonable I think, last night's game was only aimed at winning and not a target to win by many goals and that was enough for Real Madrid to stay consistent at the top of the table.
Real Madrid and Bilbao's match was interesting to watch because even though Bilbao didn't have much of the possession, they were still shooting and hoping that the shots went on target. But to be honest real Madrid dominated that match and was the better team but still, the match had only one goal in it which was scored by Benzema in the 40th minute.
The only game tomorrow is Real Madrid - Athletic Bilbao. The reason is that this is the missing game of both teams and it is scheduled for tomorrow. Real Madrid seem like the absolute favourite team here without doubt. They have had a great performance for a long time period. And they defeated one of their hardest opponents, Sevilla in their last game. But Athletic Bilbao are not in a similar condition. They haven't won a game for 5 weeks. They are out-of-form now and I think Real Madrid will be the winner here.

while looking at Madrid's performance in that match I think there should have been more than 1 goal. although they could only make 7 shots on target.
However, Madrid managed to win. and that makes Madrid more solid at the top of the standings.
Barcelona's rise in the La Liga continues. Xavi is the best thing happened to Barcelona for now. But I know that it is very early talk about it like this. It has been only two league matches. And they won both of them (vs Espanyol (H): 1-0, vs Villarreal (A): 3-1). And the next one is against Betis three days later. Betis are one of the strong teams so far. There is a 4-point difference between Betis and Barcelona and Betis are the team ahead. A tough game is waiting for Barcelona but I believe that they will still be winning.
Well i think Barcelona got lucky against Espanyol and lets now see what they can do against a big team such as Betis.Betis has really good quality players and i think they can even win this match.Should be also lots of goals between these two teams.
You think so? To be honest, I don't think that Barcelona got lucky in the Espanyol match. Because they had the control of the match most of the times. A 1-0 score shouldn't be misleading for anyone. They would have scored more than this but they were newly recovering. After some time, I believe that will start seeing again the matches Barcelona score many goals in.

Real Madrid are being favoured highly of course. Athletic Bilbao are not a team to be underestimated though
Just quoting this part to say that Real Madrid shouldn't be considered favoured a lot when playing vs Bilbao although history and actual results are in favour of Real Madrid. In fact, Bilbao is a team that you can expect everything from it. They got a draw in 8 of its 14 games this season. I wouldn't say they will win vs RM but they could tackle them with a draw.. The game was really interesting even though Real Madrid won by 1-0. And you were right about Athletic Bilbao. Because maybe the first half was in favour of Real Madrid but everything changed in the second half. Real Madrid's dominance turned into an Athletic Bilbao dominance in the other half. Real Madrid had a really hard time securing the win. They had only 3 shots and none of them was on target. Athletic Bilbao got 12 shots but only 1 one of them was on target. Their clumsiness prevented them from maybe drawing with Real Madrid.
I think that Atletico Bilbao was rushing things. In the second half where they had a dominant performance, I thought that they could have made one or two more passes before shooting the ball. They had a lot of shots but if they were on target maybe one of them could have ended in the back of the net.

Real Madrid are the highly dominant team in the league now. The first half ended and Real Madrid lead by 1-0. They had a 71% ball possession and didn't give too many chances to their opponent. Benzema scored again and he is really a beast now. 
He is 33 now but he is still a very great forward surely. Real Madrid owe him too much this season. I expect Real Madrid to open the gap more in the second half as long as they play like this and win easily.
It was a great performance on the first half they managed to score with those many chances and benzema performance is no new news he is on fire this season but in the second half real madrid team did not risk going to the offensive they let ath bilbao team lead and they almost lost points either way they are still the leaders with a confortable lead. He is 33 now but he is still a very great forward surely. Real Madrid owe him too much this season. I expect Real Madrid to open the gap more in the second half as long as they play like this and win easily.

Today's victory is no less important than the victory of Seville a few days ago to widen the difference first and to gain more confidence secondly and to continue the distinctive psychological factor that the team gained in the last rounds.
My expectations is going to be RM to to get the 3 points whith seeing over 2.5 goals.
At the end there wasn't a draw and there wasn't many goals either. Both teams were able to score in some occasions, Bilbao missed a header like 2-3 meters away from the goal unfortunately for them and luckily for Real Madrid
The pace at which Real Madrid is moving is undoubtedly going to win the title this season. Unless Vinicius and Benjama are injured. Both are key players in Real Madrid. The contribution of these two players in winning every match at Real Madrid is outstanding. Real Madrid is now 7 points ahead of Atletico Madrid.
