Unfortunately money has changed everything. Unless the smaller teams in la Liga like Real Betis, Granada, Villa real etc are able to spend lots of money and compete with big team when bidding for players, the trend is not likely to change long term.

Team with a limited budget should focus on youth development and try to build a winning team there. Don't sell their star player and see 5-10 years later, they should be able to compete with the top teams. The reason why City, Real, etc keep winning is that they buy lots of young/potential players from a club like Ajax etc.

Barcelona's performance was very ordinary given the opposition.Also Lenglet was sent off in the game which shows the form of barca's back line. I think they need Messi to pull them out of this slump and carry the team to these results. Plus Valverde's tactics have been way off recently.

Barca are not looking like a team that will win any trophy this season-no offence to Blaugrana fans in here. But the truth be told, they are playing like an ordinary team with no real bite up front and in defense, I just hope by the time Messi is fully fit to play and perform, it wouldn't be too late to start doing catch up.

I doubt I've ever seen the Spanish LA liga table this way, all the teams are going for it hammer and thongs, no clear favorites and no one knows what'll happen, at least for now, the table could still take normal shape in few weeks. Grin

Barcelona would not be able to challenge the title this season.
I am very thoughtful that the La Liga title is going to return in Madrid this season. And once again Zinedine Zidane would be a hero in Madrid as he will return the title to the Spanish Capital.

It's too soon to conclude like that because the league and UCL have just started, predictions will be more realistic if half the season is already running. Barcelona are also a strong team, they also have the potential to get the championship title.

True. I thought I was looking at a Premier League table Grin

but it's nice to see something different even at this early stage and it is also good for the league. I want to see more teams competing for the La Liga title instead of the usual RM, Barca, and sometimes Atletico Madrid.

The reason Premier league teams look so competitive, smaller teams inclusive is because they can spend massive amounts too

Barcelona not winning the title is one thing, but they would surely challenge for it. They have had a very shaky start to the season, but are only two points adrift from the top. This is not an irreparable gap.
You are however right that there are no clear favourites and lots of the teams close to the top would be fancying their chances.

Atletico-Real was pretty boring.Not so much fight.It looks both teams more were trying to lose than win.And both was happy to drawn
Barca won finally away game but his play was not so much impressive .Season beginning in La Liga is a little strange but it will change with time

If you look at the match from beginning to end you definitely see that they have tried their best to get the win. Especially for Real Madrid, they might not want to just draw or want to lose from the start. But what they faced was a big team or their rivals. So it will be difficult to win.

And for Barcelona, it was actually a difficult match too. They have not been able to score a goal in the early minutes and could only score after 4 minutes before the first half ended. But that's the good thing about Barcelona, when their rivals draw. They can get 3 full points in the match against Getafe.

they are a big team and it is true that it is very difficult to win the match, but from the perspective of the spectators the fight is a big match. everyone expected that there would be a fierce match even though it ended in a draw, at that match it was really boring.

Sevilla - Real Sociedad
Before the match against Real Madrid in week 5, Sevilla was on top of the table. Even I had predicted them to win Real Madrid. They lost to Real Madrid and then they lost to Eibar too. They are on 8th place of the table and lower than Real Sociedad. On the other hand, Real Sociedad has won all the past three games scoring 8 goals and conceding only 1 goal. Now they have the chance to move to the first place of the table, But as Sevilla will play in their home, I expect the game to finish in a draw.

Edit: Sevilla 3 - 2 Real Sociedad. My prediction was going to come true. But Real Sociedad scored at 87th minute.

But even if they hadn't scored in the 87th minute... The result was going to be 3-1 which is pretty much far away from what you had predicted.

Anyways personally i thought Real Sociedad could try and win the game but a loss to them is good news to us Madridistas.

I think Real Sociedad can compete against each other when against Sevilla. But unfortunately Sevilla dominated the match more and Real Sociedad couldn't do much, they were only able to do 5 kicks. It was really a very difficult match for the Sociedad estate. So Sevilla really does its job well.

Nice analysis and prediction skills even though it didn't hit (btw, Sorry about that) . The top dogs in Spanish league have been very disappointing since the start of the 2019/2020. Sevilla is not an exception. I'll admit, Real Madrid was the Underdog during the Sevilla - Madrid Clash. Well, It's still to early to say anything. We've a long season ahead of us.

I'm not surprised at all. Atletico always play like that boring af, real madrid giving a good fight though but yeah this derby that i was waiting for but end up with 0-0 boring game. A good result for both teams though, so both team got 1 points from draw.

Knowing the way Atletico has played in recent years, and as Zidane began to devote more time to defense, this was expected.
For several games Real didn't receive a goal and started playing as Atletico on his best days Grin

I haven't given my impression about the derby yesterday, but i'll keep it short: • From a 7-3 during pre-season, to a 0-0 draw at their home ground, I'll call that a major improvement for Zidane & Co. • We can't play without Casemiro, what a beast! Easily the MOTM yesterday. • Hazard is turning out to be a flop. Hopefully, it's because he's adapting to a new team/country/teammates. etc.

Btw, Real Sociedad have the chance to become the new leaders today...Well, well, well, La Liga is now more entertaining that the EPL, who would've thought, eh?

Sevilla or Real Sociedad? Neither, I'll go with O2.5 goals (:

I kinda get the same feeling like the City vs Liverpool match where both of the team are aware of each other strengths and try not to give any chance to create a score

That's the same old story in the every league in europe. Whenever two league title contenders face each other, they'll definitely play it safe, those teams know that. in the long run, you win the league by not dropping points against the low-tier teams, not against the top teams which are like 2 or 3.

I don't know. Maybe I'm so biased but I don't agree with most of the reports I'm reading about the derby. Seemed a bit big on a yawn lately, and Real simply can't seem to get themselves out when it comes to Atleti.

Good for Barca of course, but only if we can keep on winning our games! Interesting league table for sure.

A stalemate does not mean the game is boring. It seems you guys only considers lots of goal as an exciting match. If you look at the stats, it's quite balanced, but ATM xG is higher. I kinda get the same feeling like the City vs Liverpool match where both of the team are aware of each other strengths and try not to give any chance to create a score.

La Liga table is getting interesting, the top eight has one point between each of them. Need to beat each other to move up in the table. Nice.

Big matches like these get quite cagey at times as both teams don't want to lose at any cost. Given both teams lost their champions league matches to big opposition makes them more cautious in their approach. Real madrid are not performing even with additions like Hazard. So i understand why they dont go all out to win a big match.

I totally agree with you as lot of time i have seen this type of hype matches mostly go without goal as both team dont want to lose the match and play defense game. That is why always going under goal in this type of game gives good profit
