Las Palmas lead 1-0 at the end of the first half. It will be another surprise if las Palmas can pick up points in today's match. But Las Palmas were very confident in the first half. Even after scoring they continued to attack. On the other hand, Real Madrid team was on the back foot. Las Palmas' attack is not strong enough. They have made many mistakes. Otherwise the first half would have been more competitive.

Like in the previous matches, today we don't see a good first half performance from the Real Madrid players. Madrid can't make any strong attack. Real Madrid players made only 3 shots in the first half. Mbappe's performance so far has been poor. However, in the second half, Ancelotti will definitely change his match strategy. And Madrid will step up their attack. I expect Madrid to leave the field with 3 points in this match. A lot of gamblers will lose money today if Madrid lose.

The score was still 1-0 40 minutes into the first half, but I'm sure Real Madrid would have conceded an additional goal if they underestimated Las Palmas. I didn't expect Las Palmas to play as well as they did in this first half, they even have the right to win if they continue to play like this until the game ends.

I'm not saying Real Madrid's performance was bad in this match, but Las Palmas' performance was beyond expectations. Mbappe, Valverde, Rudiger almost scored, but Jasper Cillessen managed to prevent it. My question is, will there be a second goal for Las Palmas?

I'm in shock seeing their score line and I'm just trying to convince myself if maybe I'm it's Madrid that's not taking the game seriously because I don't know how else to explain this results, maybe second half may probably be better so we could wait for a chance in the second half and hope to see Madrid do better. Even statically it appears there's a relative balance and Madrid has got lesser attempts even, just maybe could they be lacking in the home advantage their opponent has got over them in this game, but that doesn't seem to make sense to me as they have got a better squad rhan their opponent.

I am actually very confident that Real Madrid will be able to win this match. Even though Real Madrid is now 1 goal behind. Because Real Madrid was careless at the start of the match. But the match will still be quite long. And I think Real Madrid will answer those goals soon and maybe even with more goals. I will be really disappointed if Real Madrid can't win this match. In fact, I really didn't expect a draw for this match. Now the match is underway and has entered the 30th minute and the score still has not changed.

If Mbappe can fit in well with the Madrid players then we could see Madrid's overall situation improve very quickly. Mbappe is the only new player in Madrid's squad. Also, the bonding between the rest of the players is very strong. And I would say Mbappe is why Madrid's performance is a bit unstable.

In today's match, Real Madrid team is playing in 4-2-3-1 formation. Las Palmas is not a strong team. So I expect Madrid to win. However, Madrid fell behind 1-0 in just 5 minutes. And Real Madrid still can't make a comeback. Even Madrid's gameplay is a bit slow now. But in the previous matches we have seen slow gameplay from Madrid in the first half. I hope Real Madrid will come back stronger in the second half.

Many bettors actually believe that Real Madrid will win, which is the reason why they are favorites in this match. However, in fact, Real Madrid conceded surprisingly first when the match had just entered the 5th minute. Obviously it's never fun to concede quickly like this, but the game is still very long.

Las Palmas, who played at home, really played at a good tempo in the first 20 minutes. They defended well, attacked well and made a perfect transition from attack to defense. Real Madrid is certainly under pressure when Las Palmas builds attacks, which is very dangerous in my opinion.

1-0 now to Real Madrid's defeat.

A player like Mbappe cannot just be benched because they haven’t scored in some games they’re expected to score or show some kind of impressive performance. What I feel is that, Mbappe may be facing problem of adaptability in his new club, but with the type of player that he is, it should not take him a lot of time before he could finally get use to the club. He has joined Real Madrid were potential young players like him with scoring abilities are present there too, he shouldn’t expect to be the best player or the highest goal scorer, things may not get too juicy as we all assume for him after he joined Real Madrid.



Girona did not start well this season and that I think will affect their performance in the champions league. There match against Osasuna makes me now have some level of confidence in them to be able to do well this season. They’ve played such a nice game last season and even went on a winning streak before Real Madrid ended it. They are a good team and I think they can be able to do perform as good as they did last season.

The main reason for Girona's win in today's match is Osasuna's poor performance. Osasuna's players played well enough in the first two matches. But it is beyond my understanding why they are suddenly so degraded today. If Osasuna's gameplay was good, it would not have been so easy for Girona to win the match.

I saw all four goals scored by Girona players. Every goal was very good. Girona have a strong squad this season as well. If Girona's players remain as confident as they are and their match tactics are good then Girona will be challenging for the top four in the table this season. That's how I feel about Girona's gameplay in this match.

I'm not holding back, because the odds are favorable at my end and totally not going to jeopardize the fact that winning comes in full motion. La Liga is strange and knowing the competitive run against these clubs, we just have to melt in for solidable result from elite clubs. Girona are gradually becoming one of the elite team to compete for the La Liga title this season. They've been on the smooth run and knowing the possibilities of bouncing back to formidable form.

Girona beat Osasuna 4-0 in the early kick off today, very impressive performance by the home team who are improving fast.

Las Palmas vs Real Madrid kicks off in 15 minutes. You have to fancy Real to take the win there.

I didn't watch this match, just monitored the livescore and I don't know how to describe it, have you ever seen statistics like the screenshot below? can we guess what Osasuna will do in 90+ minutes I'm not sure if this is Girona ability to control the match and I know Osasuna is not a weak team like that because we can check their match history, that's why i said it's hard to describe this match. Yeah finally Girona got their first win of the season after disappointing in the last 2 matches.

By the way we are also waiting for another match today which will be played in the next few minutes between Las Palmas vs Real Madrid. Based on the lineup, it seems that Real Madrid is aiming for 3 points by playing all their mainstay players including Mbappe and V. Junior yeah we know Real Madrid wants to take over the top of the standings and not let Barcelona get comfortable there. I'm pretty sure Real Madrid can win by 2 goals or more and Mbappe will take his place on the top scorers list.

And now half an hour remains before the Las Palmas vs Real Madrid match will take place. Even though there are several changes to the starting Carlo Ancelotti has to continue to rotate the players in the squad. So that their performance does not decline even though they are faced with a busy schedule.

And the Las Palmas vs Madrid match is also the last match in week 3. Before this match, we saw Girona who managed to win the match against Osasuna. Girona again attracted attention because in that match Girona scored a lot of goals, namely 4 goals and did not concede a single goal. Maybe they are starting to rediscover their form. And it is possible that Girona's performance will return to last season's level.

This is the difference between his former club PSG and his new club Real Madrid, Mbappe is new to the team his not going to become better overnight but as he continues playing he will adopt to the team, the league and his goal scoring ability will be seen as a good player, the Real Madrid coach won't risk the chances of not starting Mbappe because he believes the player is a game changer and can score at any given time so I believe playing against Las Palmas today we could see Mbappe getting better in performance and also scoring more than one goal. Even though Mbappe fails to score in the game against Las Palmas today and the performance of Real Madrid still remains better, I don't think Ancelotti will be willing to start another player ahead of Mbappe in the next match unless his team fails to win the game today as a result of them not scoring goals.

Girona won the match 4-0. Although Girona led 1-0 at the end of the first half, Girona players scored three goals in the second half. The dominance of Girona's players was palpable throughout the match. Girona played very well.

But I was surprised by the performance of Osasuna's players in this match. Seeing their gameplay, I think Osasuna players have no desire to win the match. I don't see Osasuna's players trying to attack like that. Only the team made 1 shot in 90 minutes. Osauna's players had the sole task of fending off Girona's attacks throughout the match. Even then, Osasuna conceded 4 goals.

The giant Madrid team is going to face Las Palmas in an away match shortly. This is an away match for Madrid. But the main attraction of today's match is Ancelotti keeping Modrich in his starting XI. However, I think the 38-year-old Modric would have been better served as a second-half substitute rather than in the starting XI.

This is true but most times players like Mbappe are often given starters role when they just join a new team just like Haaland, when the season started while though both are taking different path from the fact that Mbappe did well during pre season Haaland pre season was not really good but he got a debut goal when the Epl finally kick off, I still support every approach Ancelotti use to bring the best of Mbappe

He is starting today, let hope if he can get his first league goal today, I believe today might just be the day, also another thing is that Real Madrid don't really have a proper 9 and this space was kept void for Mbappe to fill, I guessed he will continue to start till he he adapt to this position.

In addition to the tight schedule, Ancelotti's rotation is also right, because in the last few matches when playing the trio of Mbappe, Rodrigo, and Vini together, Real Madrid's front line did not work well, they had difficulty scoring goals and the flow of the ball to Mbappe was very minimal which made him not score a goal so far in La Liga even though the main goal of bringing in Mbappe was to make Real Madrid's front line sharper.

So in my opinion, Ancelotti needs to do this kind of rotation so that players can get chemistry and this is the right line-up by playing Modrick from the start. Playing Modrik from the start is expected that Mbappe can score his first goal in La Liga, Brahim was very good in the previous match because he brought changes to Real Madrid's game and managed to win 3-0 over Valladolid. So he deserves to be a starter in this match, maybe Brahim plays until the 60th minute then Arda Guler comes in.

Ancelotti still plays Mbappe because Mbappe is Ancelotti's big project, so of course playing him is a must so that Mbappe can score goals and gain confidence. This season, Real Madrid, in addition to having the trio of Mbappe, Rodrigo, and Vini. It turns out that there is another trio that is no less interesting and of course we are waiting for their action, namely Endrick, Arda Guler, and Brahim.

With a line-up like this, I predict that Real Madrid can beat Las Palma with a score of 0-3.

I was also surprised to see Girona leading Osasuna by 3:0 because with the way Girona performed so poorly in their last two previous matches made people doubt if they could win Osasuna but here they are winning comfortably. I know that due to how they performed last season they will still love to maintain same level of performance as they did last season so by winning Osasuna showed a sign to show that they are fully ready now to face any team but i still sense fear in Girona if not they shouldn't have lost their last two matches, wish they can perform as they did last season so they can still qualify for the Champions League next season because we need to be seeing the appearances of news teams in the champions league unlike always seeing the traditional teams qualifying all the time. At last the game ended 4:0 they really played so well and it's a well deserved victory

Is better Modric should start every match and then rest for about 75 minutes, because he is the only player with more experience than the other players and will be feeding Mbappe very well now that Kross has left the team, so he should use Modric in every game, despite his age. Now that Ancelotti has changed the information, it appears like Madrid will easily win the game. Ancelotti will not inadvertently lose any point anymore given how Barcelona are playing well without losing points. They need to push Barcelona because if Madrid loses points, it will be extremely difficult for Ancelotti to catch Barcelona in the league tables.

Girona have already scored 4 goals in attack against Osasuna with their strong performance today. Girona scored just one goal before half time and they managed to score three more goals in the second half to lead 4/0. Girona picked up their first win of the new season against Osasuna, although their performance today looks very strong. But I think that if Girona continue to follow their strong performances, they will definitely be in the top position and compete with strong teams. After defeating Osasuna in today's match, Girona moved to the seventh position in the points table, but they will try to play harder in the next matches, if they can perform well this season, they will advance in the title fight.

Ancelotti Knows exactly what his doing and to him mbappe is a very valuable player to him and over using him will not favor the performance of the club, and I think now mbappe is trying to get use to the club and even in the process I see him still doing well, because have seen all his attempts to try and score, and the young player as a target and he feel if he works hard that way he will be able to archive is goal, and with the kind of players that Real Madrid have he as no worry because they will be a support to his career because mbappe will be one of the best player, till today the way benzema turned to one of the best player that Madrid have it was a circumstance that no one expected and it happened. Mbappe case might not be delayed compared to that of benzema, everything will become massive.


It takes time and only few players adopts on time but if it was left to me I would say that mbappe just needs to relax if not is playing looks adaptive just that he needs a little more time to showcase. And their game against Las Palmas, the game should be an easy one for them. Except they don't want to win, people are more focused on what mbappe is playing than what the club is playing, if not for that would say that Madrid performing well and their players are still very much active so I don't see anything wrong for now they will still going to defend the trophy nothing as changed.
