I honestly think karim benzema is one of the most underrated player of this generation, I don't know how this player has become so small in sport, already this season karim benzema has more that 5 goals and high assist, when cristiano ronaldo left, Real madrid needed someone to carry the flag of the spanish giant, and he did his best, although not like cristiano ronaldo did, but I think Karim benzema is not getting the respect in football that he should be getting with all he has and all he is doing at Real madrid.

When Real Madrid had Gonzalo Higuain, Karim Benzema was having a difficulty in showing his talents really much. Because Higuain was having the most chances. But after he left the team, Benzema found a big chance to show himself more. While even Ronaldo was at the team, Benzema was still performing really good. But he is not known as a star player by most people I think and it is not fair for him. He is performing really awesome despite being 33 years old now. He already has 8 goals and 7 assists in 6 games in the La Liga. Real Madrid will really miss him when he leaves or retires.

Indeed I agree with that. The captain is a good player, I once read an article about his history and debut which was very difficult then he found himself under Mourinho management who didn't want to count on him much and put him when he was obliged to, later there was the national team incident... Yet he succeed to prove how useful he was Wink

Now Barcelona game will start, Cadiz isn't very competitive and Barca didn't lose a game yet but better for them to score +2 goals to avoid any surprise..

Indeed, but he may get the attention from all other through his performance of this season. He has already done the best for RMA in last few matches. Hopefully he will continue his performance like this in the whole season and bring the La Liga title for Real Madrid. It will be surprising if he remains underrated after this season.
BTW, if Barcelona loss or make a draw today then their fans should stop dreaming the cup of this season.

I must admit that I was delighted with the performances of both teams in the Granada - Real Sociedad game. Granada were the first scoring team. But Real Sociedad put in a big effort to make a comeback. But Granada weren't intending to give up and equalized the score. And in the last ten minutes, Real Sociedad managed to score again and got 3-2 ahead. Granada couldn't answer this goal and it ended like this. But I can say clearly that Real Sociedad really deserved this victory and you can understand this even from the statistics also.

Granada was on top in first half and leading against Real Sociedad 1 - 0 after this I was feeling they're done good job against Barcelona and now today they can win but suddenly in second half all change, and now we have just 4 minutes left in game and Real Sociedad is leading this match by 2 -3 look like now they are going to win and having sat on third spot for few days in La Liga because Sevilla is also in good run, and they can take back this spot soon with their match against Espanyol.

Today as rumours are going against Koeman very crucial match for him and Barcelona they need to win and have some better place because their tactics are not working, and management patience is also losing which is not good for Koeman.

There are many speculations that say if Koeman's fate will be determined in the result of the Barcelona match against Cadiz, whether this issue is true or not, but for sure this season is Barcelona worst season in recent years, as long as I have watched the barcelona match so far, I have never seen if Barcelona being in the bottom 4 of the standings in the 4 games played at the start of each season, I think barcelona this season has really slumped.

Hmmm, could we consider the possibility that they are just intentionally leaking the coach?) The leader of the team is gone, they need to change the style of play, but they somehow are not able to do it yet. Maybe Koeman is looking for the perfect scheme, tactics, I don't know. But even so, I think as soon as the coach changes, they will start to play for real. All the more, Koeman's achievements are not as much as we would like them to be.

Vaccinized.. immunity level is full.

Shortly afterwards, Barcelona will play against Cadiz CF. Cadiz has played 5 matches and won only 1 match this season. The Cadiz team is not strong. But in the previous 2 meetings of Barcelona vs Cadiz FC, Barcelona could not win either. One has been defeated and the other has been drawn. Barcelona is not able to play well this season. They can win today, but I wouldn't be surprised if they draw or lose.

Since Koeman arrival to Barcelona last season, Barcelona game has changed drastically, previously Barcelona continued to apply the tiki taka style, now that tiki taka style of play has begun to disappear since Koeman arrival, I think Barcelona current problem lies in tactics and style of play tend to stagnate so that their game is very easy for opponents to guess, and it can be seen when Barcelona are mercilessly crushed by Bayern Munich and even worse they seem to have difficulty winning when faced with a team that is below Barcelona level.
I agree with what you said, the impact of messi's departure has made Barcelona very depressed, just like what happened to Juventus after losing ronaldo this season.

Before, Barcelona used to play in Tiki-taka style. But now whether they play in any style or what their game plan is, I don't think they know it themselves. Even against a weaker team, I don't see a better performance from the Barcelona players. They also play defensively against weaker teams. Even against a weak team like Granda, Barcelona is not able to win now.

on matchday last week Barcelona could only draw 1-1 against Granada at the Estadio campnou, which made Barcelona have to fall behind until the 90th minute before being equalized by Ronald Araujo before the second half ended, currently Barcelona are playing quite badly since being left by Lionel Messi made them have to struggle to win despite facing teams that we can say are relatively easy to beat, but the performance shown by Ronald Koeman's men in La Liga this season, but for the next match they are back against a team of Levante's caliber who currently his performance is also very declining, if victory has not been obtained against Levante then this is a disaster for Ronald Koeman, possibly being kicked out by Barcelona management at the beginning of the competition this season

Mate, I'm a fan of Barcelona. Honestly, since Ronald Koeman joined the team, I have only seen the decline of Barcelona. Considering the previous season, in the previous season, Barcelona was stronger than Real Madrid in all respects. But at the end of the season, the Barcelona team was 5 points behind Real Madrid. Koeman has not been able to show anything good with the Barcelona team yet. If he adopts the same game strategy and plays defensively in the next match, then Barcelona will fail to score 3 points in this match as well. Barcelona management should look for a new coach.

Real Madrid is an amazing club! Keep it up, and they'll be champions! I just love the way the team is playing this season under Ancelotti. That's what happens when you have a manager like Ancelotti. Since I have watched every single game this season, it seems to me that they need to improve their defense. The team must not concede goals all the time. They must fix their defense now, don't they? Real Madrid is scoring goals like it's no big deal. Asensio and Isco deserve a lot of congratulations.

Real Madrid is like a bull that can't be stopped,
Sevilla, atm, and Madrid are 3 teams that haven't lost since the season started but Madrid have higher points

this season it looks like Madrid's road to winning the league won't be too difficult

today if barca loses to cadiz then can be sure their ranking will fall even more

Very nice game for Real Madrid tonight if you are a fan.

Real Madrid 6:1 Mallorca
3 goals from Marco Asensio, 2 Goals and 2 assists from Benzema, 1 goal from Isco. If anyone doubted Ancelotti, maybe they will change their minds. The defense maybe leaky at times, but the goals keep coming. That's what matters most.

Barcelona are still very inconsistent as they barely equalized the score against Granada in the last minutes and got another draw. This time, they are playing away against Cadiz tonight. Cadiz are one of the teams that started the season poorly. On the other hand, Barcelona lost their last match against Cadiz away by 2-1. I feel like it is another tough match waiting for them.

Carlos Ancelotti is a genius and the right choice of Perez to bring him back. Also all the youngsters are improving and having fun on the field. Ancelotti's football philosophy is just perfect for Madrid. This team is becoming very formidable that in real time this Real Madrid will be very scary. Rotating the squad by bringing different team for different games. That's how competitive this squad is. It's what wins you games and trophies. Marcos Asensio was outstanding in the game scoring his first hattrick for the club. And also Karim Benzema with his 200 goal for Real Madrid too. Its nice how Ancelotti is integrating the old players into the team again.

It's too early to judge the strength of Real Madrid by one match, especially since yesterday Mallorca put up a reserve squad against Madrid. But the team liked the game. The only problem at the moment for Real Madrid is defense. Nacho and Militao had a lot of mistakes. Team rookies Kamaving and Alaba fit perfectly into the team.

My guess is the current problem for Barcelona is for the coach. If we compare the players of Barcelona with Real Madrid, no one can say that the players of Barcelona are bad. The Barcelona squad has enough talented and experienced players. If Real Madrid can perform well then why can't Barcelona? Barcelona has scored 8 goals in 4 matches this season. Real Madrid, on the other hand, has played 6 matches and scored 21 goals. Moreover, looking at the gameplay of Barcelona, I think they have no match strategy, no aim. They have a lot of trouble attacking and scoring goals.

Real Madrid and Barcelona have same quality if you say about their players or coaches. I think Real Madrid have more balanced squad between defense and attacking systems. Barcelona does not have it because their defense system is weak and it makes the whole squad is more vulnerable.

This problem of Barcelona is not solved in many years and with a few coaches after Luis Enrique. Koeman took his job in Barcelona but does not have good budget to buy good defenders.

Don't stake too high on game's like Barcelona, probability of you getting things the wrong direction is high.
Tiki taka just as you have said ain't played recently..... I'm patiently waiting for the return of xavi Hernandez to Barcelona.
He'll sure put this into play,over there in Al sadd, carried the league with this style of play.
He should be the perfect one for this club, as well an overhaul will and should be done.

Despite having a lot of good players in the Barcelona team, the team is not stable. This is the failure of the coach.

I don't think it's solely the coach. The problems with Barcelona go much deeper than that, and are rooted in money (or lack of it). Koeman was brought in to end the chaos, it wasn't him who started it. But I will certainly agree that his presence has made a bad situation even worse. It's difficult to see how Barca get out of this really. I assume their youth players are very good, and given a bit of experience will be capable of holding their own amongst the stars that Barca do still have. That may be the most likely way out in the medium term.

Valencia are being defeated by Sevilla right now. Sevilla are 3-1 ahead now and we are in the last fifteen minutes of the match. We watched all the goals in the first half so the second half has been quite boring to be honest. Actually, I can't say that Valencia are performing poorly but they are struggling to fight back against Sevilla. And Sevilla have been quite strong lately. They are going to be at the 3rd place with 11 points if they win this but I'd like to remind you that they have one missing match also.

In last few seasons Valencia is struggling like we have Arsenal in EPL because both clubs are facing same issues and on other side Sevilla is doing great job they are playing very good and attacking game and have very good results in current season as Valencia started there was some hope they will do some good but in last two matches they are losing against top ranked clubs which is not going to be good for next half of season they need some better strategy from management.

Sevilla is one of four clubs those are undefeated in current season and these are going to be on top in this season like last just Barcelona is facing some issues after Messi and Griezmann, but they are still in better shape.

Cadiz - Barcelona

who has the courage to bet on this game? Grin

Barcelona = a team with a lot of difficulties, both in defense and in scoring, they are practically worse than many low-level teams, definitely betting on Barcelona is the same as playing the lottery

Cadiz = Is a team that has been very unlucky, they manage to score goals but the problem is the mistakes they make in defense, if today they managed to improve in defense they would surely win easily

Everything you said about Barcelona is true, but I think you are exaggerating a little. By the way, thanks to the problems that Barcelona is experiencing, the odds on its victory are quite attractive.
6,00 - 4,40 - 1,54
I remember the times when such matches were estimated as 1.1-1.2, so such a coefficient can be considered (in spite of everything) profitable. Maybe I'll play this lottery Cheesy
