They bet with money during their financial crisis that results will be good and they will win titles so that they will have good income to cover what already spent on transfer market and player salary and more than that, can help them to partially and gradually resolve their financial problems. They are making very risky strategy that has big risk to fail. Only one or two seasons with bad results, Barcelona will face with very severe situation and perhaps not happy bankruptcy.

This season began very well and impressive for Barcelona but many months and matches ahead for Barcelona to win La Liga. In Champions League, chance to win it is very small and I believe they will try to go to rounds like quarter final or better semi final to maximize income possible earned from Champions League tournament.

There will be no goal party in this match, we can see the indication from the odds which are quite high for betting over 2,5 total goals. This match is difficult to predict, because there will be many schemes that might occur. Rather than having to go to over, i think it would be better to bet on the handicap & choose Atletico Madrid. We have decent odds of -0,25 for Atletico Madrid.

That was the last bad meeting for Barcelona. But that match was at Valladolid's home ground. Now Barca will play at home and there is no reason to lose to Valladolid this time. I think Lewandowski will also score in the match.

The odds given by bookmakers for Valladolid in this match are not so good. The win against Espanyol and the draw against Leganes are not considered by bookmakers when Valladolid faces Barcelona who have won 3 matches in a row. Barcelona is the absolute favorite, there is no reason for Barcelona to lose. and hopefully, the result will not disappoint the many fans who bet today.

Barcelona have had a great start to the 2024-25 La Liga season under their new coach Hansi Flick. So far, Barcelona have faced three matches against the opposition, of which Barcelona have won three matches. And in these few matches Lewandowski, the old striker of the Barcelona team, has performed excellently. He has already achieved the glory of scoring three goals in three matches. Today, Barcelona take to the field to face Real Valladolid football team in their fourth match in La Liga. Maybe Barcelona will enter the field with a high probability of victory in today's match as well, because recently between these two teams, Barcelona is ahead in terms of performance.

Today's match I think is going to be a revenge match for Barcelona, if they win today's match against Real Valladolid football team, they might get a deserved revenge. Because Barcelona lost 3-1 in last match with Real Valladolid football team. Barcelona's great start to the season looks like they will win today's match and retain the top spot in the points table.

Barcelona have played well in all three of their matches, which has seen them top the points table and have yet to lose a single match. Although Barcelona have played very poorly in the past, we can see that their team has fully improved these days with their strong attacks in every match. At the start of the season, Barcelona have been producing positive results in every match, which has put the team in a good position. But of course we can say that the champion team Real Madrid is playing very bad game at the moment, their performance is not very good especially since Mbappé arrived. So far Mbappé may not have been able to coordinate his game with Real Madrid which has resulted in a lack of goals, and they have to play in frustration in every match. But if Real Madrid can improve their game well then they can definitely expect to win even though they have drawn two matches already which has kept them from the top position in the points table. Of course, we can hope that Real Madrid can be better towards the end of the season, and they can change their game.

Barcelona managed to win full points in their current three matches so it is not surprising that they are currently at the top of the standings, previously if you look at what happened to Barcelona, of course many doubted if they could be at the top of the standing like today, but with all the limitations and problems that befell Barcelona but now they have managed to achieve positive results at the beginning of the season,  In contrast to Madrid who we have been continuing to favorite as champions, especially after the arrival of Mbappe which makes them considered the most perfect team at the world, but in fact so far Madrid has not found their best performance and must be ranked 5th with 1 win and 2 draws in the meantime, but even so, of course the La Liga journey is still very long and of course there are still will many changes that will occur later until end of the season.

It can be said that this is a big match this week and the bookies also provide difficult choices with odds that are almost the same.

Honestly, this will not be easy for both teams because each is targeting full points to continue in the top standings. Bilbao still has 1 win, 1 draw, and 1 loss while Atletico is not much different with 1 win and 2 draws. This puts both teams to play all out and maybe today there will be a goal party.

However, if we look at the current trend, Bilbao must still be very excited because they just won against Valencia and Atletico must still be a little upset because they only drew against Espanyol. Maybe if I were you, I would take a more realistic betting option like BTTS or over 2.5 goals. On the other hand, who knows Julian Alvarez will score the first goal in this match.

Las Palmas scored before Real Madrid could find the tempo of the game. They were cold in the game and had not warmed up yet, Las Palmas used this very well and managed to score against them. They also protected this very well and Real Madrid played really badly. Kylian Mbappé still hasn't recovered, of course this may be due to the adaptation problem he has since he is in another country. However, he is being criticized harshly for acting selfishly in the match where he should have passed the ball. I think it should be like this, after all football is a team game and if there is another player in a suitable position you should know how to pass the ball to him. You can't score all the goals on your own. You can do this in Paris Saint-Germain but Real Madrid won't allow it.

Real Madrid is the best team in Europe at the moment so when a relatively weak opponent plays against Real Madrid and in that match it is an easy decision for us to bet on Real Madrid and that is what we did. I bet on Real Madrid in three of their first three matches where one result went in my favor and the other two went against me but I'm not disappointed because I know Real Madrid will come back strong. Our expectations are always high for the team that Real Madrid has built today but we forget that a team will not always win. Real Madrid are unbeaten in their first three matches but they have drawn two matches and here they have dropped four points which means they are now far down the points table.

I understand you very well, betting brother. I too had placed a bet in the first match of the season aiming for the big teams to win and it went terribly wrong.
While in the second match of the Italian championship I managed to hit all the matches (x11) so I'm quite happy.
Sometimes you can't do anything about it, just don't bet on Real Madrid for a few weeks.

The Las Palmas game was a pain to me. Although it's early in the season, declining points to a recently promoted team? We did not desire this starting point. Ancelotti quickly has some tactical questions to address. The defense seemed unstable; that early goal revealed several weaknesses

One win in three? That is suffering, indeed. But panic? Not quite yet. Not any middle-table club, this is Real Madrid. Our depth and talent reflect this. Bellingham is still adjusting even if he has promise. Though Camavinga's injuries are severe, it presents an opportunity for others to help

Ancelotti needs to fast pick out his best XI. Real Betis comes next; that is a must-win. We cannot afford to lag too much behind. This crew possesses the experience and grit. It's time to show it

Barcelona lead to the top La Liga standings after three consecutive winning and Hansi Flick have good start his debut until three matches, actually Barcelona have faced top teams in last three matches after success defeating Athletic Bilbao and get winning two away matches of three matches playing recently. But Barcelona have bit poor performance in last three matches because failed get clean sheet after easily conceded one goals every match and Hansi Flick must improve with defense performance for upcoming match today against Real Valladolid.

Regarding with Real Valladolid performance in last three matches can't scoring any one goal yet I think Barcelona have chance for continue their four consecutives winning in La Liga and make clean sheet for the first time. Its fantastic for Barcelona how easily win three consecutives matches in La Liga and get opportunity continue until four consecutives matches.

This start makes me remembering two seasons ago when Barcelona won La Liga with very good defense. It seems they are trying to repeat it in first three matches and if they can maintain good defense in rest of season, chance for them to win La Liga is high enough.

Real Madrid let Barcelona expands the gap after only three first match days but they surely will try to improve, play better and catch Barcelona in coming weeks. Two main competitors for La Liga title will be Barcelona and Real Madrid as other clubs don't have enough good resources to fight for a league title throughout a long season.

Opportunity to win La Liga for Barcelona will depend on their defense system that seems operating well now and their main striker Lewandowski. If he can contribute many goals for the team, Barcelona will have better chance to be a champion of La Liga again. It can be a last chance for Lewandowski to win Pinicchi award in La Liga because he is old enough and does not have many time to play at highest level.

Real Madrid playing against Las Palmas looked pretty bad, they were unable to get an early lead and really maintain it, this became the second failure for Real Madrid which was quite surprising at the beginning of this season because in the opening match they also failed to win.
Las Palmas played quite well and got an early lead in the first half, they were able to put Real Madrid defense under quite bit of pressure and Real Madrid themselves if they didn't have a penalty maybe they wouldn't have 1 goal to equalize.
I don't know why team like Real Madrid who has good preparation and has really become perfect squad filled with great young players is unable to perform optimally at the beginning of the season like this, this draw also makes Real Madrid the favorite team which is quite disappointing.
I lost the bet and that was because of Real Madrid failure to get win, they had great chance to win but it was all in vain.

Yes, the truth is it is worrying, because Madrid has everything, it cannot be denied that this time Barcelona started with everything they have, they are not holding anything back at all, they are giving it their all, I think they are aiming for the same thing that Leverkusen did last season, those players lived each game as if it were a final, Madrid is not exactly overconfident, but I think it is time to take the bull by the reins and do better, they cannot lower the level now when they have high calibre players, it makes no sense.

Mbappé scoreless again as Madrid is held to another draw in Spanish league, this time at Las Palmas

Barcelona is now at the top of the Laliga standings. I think this is a positive sign for Barcelona to be able to win the title again this season. The reason is that their rivals, Real Madrid, are currently still playing quite badly, as evidenced by the fact that Real Madrid is currently in 5th place in the La Liga standings. Apart from that, it was unexpected that Villareal is currently ranked 2nd in Laliga. I think the top 5 positions in Laliga this season will again be filled by teams like Barcelona, ​​​​Atletico, Real Madrid, Bilbao and Girona. However, it turns out that this is not happening at this time. Maybe because this is only week 3, there are certainly still many teams in Laliga that have not shown their best performance. Therefore, at this time we cannot draw deeper conclusions regarding which teams will be tough competitors in the top 5 of the Laliga standings. Maybe if we have entered week 10, we can draw some conclusions about which teams will compete fiercely in the top 5 of the Laliga standings.

Apart from that, the current top scorer in Laliga is Lewandowski with 3 goals and in 2nd place is Oscar Mingueza from Celta Vigo. I think with these results, it looks like Lewandowski will show his best performance again this season. Even though he is quite old now, Lewandowski is really no less competitive than the other strikers in Laliga.

Almost everyone says that the game is still long and the draw obtained by Real Madrid is not a problem. But when we look at the weaknesses that need to be improved then the problem arises where Real Madrid drew with a much weaker team. I think Mbappe has not fully adapted well and although the draws obtained in the previous two games are not a reason for comparison. The expectations on Mbappe are quite high and his presence is a hope for Real Madrid to be better this season.

If in the end Mbappe fails to be the player expected then I think his career will be quite at stake. Even if the penalty was not given, Real Madrid would not have been able to score a goal and this is a weak point which should have made their attack line more dangerous because they have great attackers in the team.

All thanks to the offside goal from Palmas especially it will have been no points for the club...sure they made alot defence in their game which made it so hard for RM to penetrate with their attacks, at least there was a shared point .
The expectation from mbappe by almost everyone is too much,the fear of not f**king things up is really making him to f*ck things up,though I have strong believe that  Ancelotti is really testing positions and likes but anyways who cares?? the fans?? there's actually a long season ahead.

I just feel Ancelloti is willing to give Mbappe a chance as recently he was heard standing up for the Frenchman, saying the guy will be explosive once he finds his footing at the club but I don't think fans have that much time to spare because his signing came with so much hype that many expected he'd start doing wonders.
 For now, small teams are being given the hope that they can beat Madrid because of their lack of coordination which is actually not funny considering how well they performed last season.. maybe this is just a dummy to other clubs and they will pick up and do well. If this is the case, they had better hurry else they may not be able to meet up.

Real Madrid draws in two of their three games have raised new concerns, Ancelotti seems to have not found the right formation for the depth of his squad which is considered very ideal. Las Palmas were very lucky to be able to share points with Real Madrid, and the result seems to have caused bettors to suffer a big loss. Losing four points due to drawing in two games is certainly very profitable for Barcelona, ​​Ancelotti must immediately find a solution to the current situation in order to retain the La Liga trophy this season. The next match against Real Betis should be an opportunity to create consistency.

Meanwhile, the 4-point gap with Barcelona is still very possible to catch up, because there are still many matches ahead, but Real Madrid must immediately rise because in the future they will face various other challenges in various competitions they participate in. It would be a shame if Ancelotti failed to lead his squad back to being champions this season, because he has the best attack line at the moment. Bellingham and Camavinga are reportedly injured, this is certainly a difficult situation for Ancelotti.
