Firstly I would like to commend the away team, Getafe for the way they approached the game, the intensity they used, and their pacy styles of attack which I find very unique especially from a visiting team, it seemed as if Getafe were the ones playing at home at some point, though they were very unlucky upfront and couldnt utilize their goal scoring opportunities when they had them. For the home side, I think coach Enersto valverde should be blamed for his side's poor performance, I don't see the reasons for him to have kept his best player on the bench when he is fit to play especially on the opening day of season where you need to grab all 3points.

Is just that we feel Getafe is not a big club but they are actually a good club and a strong one at that because, their approach against athletic club was insane, when atletic club scored first it was as if it was over for them, oihan scored a good goal at their convince, and both teams are actually did well during the game, at some point the way Getafe was pushing it hard I just knew they will definitely score, they were several attempts just that its was all failing and both of the clubs had the chance to actually win the game yesterday and it will continued to happen until uche scored for Getafe, and they ended the game draw, and I was surprised that even Girona playered draw and season it's an early season we can not yet judge a book by its cover so we wait till the end, Girona will definitely be among the top three.

Nico Williams is not injured or out of shape, but Ernesto Valverde did not start Nico Williams, Athletic Bilbao had everything in that match but could not take 3 points from Getafe. Getafe got 1 point, not bad for them at the start of the season & playing away, they deserved a pretty good result as their performance was quite stable in this match.

The coach beached him because he had previously attempted to transfer to another club, and he needed to punish him for that, because I see Barcelona is no longer interested in him; they will not get him again, and I am confident the coach will play him in the next game. Yesterday's games were drawn in La Liga, and all the clubs challenged each other to draw, but I am sure today's matches will be better than draws, and they will get a winner in today's match. Williams is a very good player, and I think if the boy play yesterday, he can give Athletic Bilbao a win, but because the coach is angry with him, he removed him because a coach can't just drop a key player on batch just like that. and the league as started not a friendly game. Let see what to coach will do is lineups next week because if he batch to boy next week the fans will definitely complain about it. Let's watch what the coach does with the lineups next week, since if he batches the boys, the supporters will undoubtedly grumble. The coach is excellent I will not dispute with what he did since he understands what is best for his players, who require discipline.

Real Betis vs Girona in today's match in Spanish League, I enjoyed a tough match between two teams. The players of both teams played very well for which today's match was a draw. Real Betis team's players were ahead by 1 goal in the first 6 minutes of the game.  Real Betis team players could not score. Girona team players performed well after halftime and scored 1 goal in 72 minutes to draw the match.

I believe Girona will not be able to do as well as they did last season. They began the season by drawing their first game against Real Betis; they did not put out enough effort in the first half, which is why they did not have more opportunities to score. But I knew the game may end in a draw if Real Betis didn't score in the second half. Girona pressured them in the second half and had chances to score goals; they need to put in more effort in their next game if they truly want to win the league, but I won't blame them because it was their first game and they didn't lose, they share the point. Sevilla's encounter vs Las palmas and I think Sevilla will be the favorite of getting the three point because I see they are more better then them. and last season they defeat palma home and away so I think they can still repeat it again this season. Last five game they play against las palmas they usually defeat them so I don't think Sevilla will see the match tough tonight.

Yeah I know it will be a bit hard for him and I mentioned in one of my previous comment before  the game, it's simple Atalanta knows it Mbappe's debut for the club(realmadrid), despite being a good player they knew he will want to have at least a goal on his debut so there was so much attention on him, they did came up with a strategies plan on the second half to divert their attention a little and made him unstoppable to get a goal although he messed up a little...
About the club, sure they are confident to take any team , maybe they're coming for the next UCL title we can really be affirmed but we know they are capable with their squad let's just see how it goes
Now he has shone at his debut, let's see how well he'd adapt at the club and also, let's see if his attitude will remain the way it was while he was at PSG because you'd often notice him waiting to be fed the ball back there but at Real Madrid, we saw him fighting for every ball and every little chance he got he wanted to utilize it well. You could see he was desperate for the fans to fully accept and love him.
 I'm full of anticipation for Real Madrid this season. At least with Mbappe's presence, Vini Jr's creativity will be fully used as there will be a great finisher to give good results.

Your expectations will only run 50%, Bilbao won from Getafe, it makes sense, they are playing a home game & still have Nico in their team, will make this match their first 3 point field. The other 50% will fail, because Real Betis is also playing a home game, i hope Real Betis can win this game because they are on my betting slip.

It looks like both of us have failed.  Sad  I mean I was able to predict Betis - Girona game to end up with a draw but failed about Athletic Bilbao. I believe it was because of Nico Williams' not being a starter also. Subbing him in the last 20 minutes? Are you serious?


Betis had early success with the first corner kick but were more aggressive later on. Attacks often lead to success but with a kick hitting the crossbar, a goal that would have surely won Betis. But the players of the Girona team were not deprived of attacking, they continued to attack one after another, but in the last 72 minutes, they succeeded in an attack.

 And he gently kicks the ball from in front of the goal post with his right foot into the goal post. After this goal, they were able to tie the match, but because of this performance, both teams tried hard in this match and they succeeded.

I agree that Bilbao manager Valverde made mistake by not bringing in Nico Williams sooner to boost their attack. Getafe strong defense and midfield made it difficult for Bilbao to create scoring opportunities. Valverde late substitution was too little too late and Getafe well planned strategy deserved win. Despite not converting their chances Getafe showed impressive speed and pressure making them formidable opponent. I hope they maintain this level of performance to cause more upsets in future games.
Fatal mistake planned by valverde by not entering nico willliams at the beginning, I do not understand the coach's wishes, the fans want better results by getting 3 points, we see since nico entered in the second half their game (bilbao) is much better, it is useless to produce ball control if there is no attack produced, on the other hand getafe played well, solid defense was shown by them, fast attacks relying on long balls. much more effective, on paper bilbao won but in fact on the field getafe played well, in my opinion the achievement of 1 point for atletic bilbao is very unfortunate seeing them playing at home is a defeat.

The new season start and Bilbao already played the game against Getafe. But Nico Williams is still linked to other teams like Barcelona and PSG which is not good for this player. They recently didn't use Nico Williams in Germany and this made us think Nico Williams has problems with the team but recently Bilbao again asked Barcelona to stop talking about their player and they said Nico Williams is the player of Bilbao and they don't want to lose this player since he is under contract until 2027.




Bilbao  not appear optimal in their first match when they faced Getafe who clearly had a squad quality below their, Statistically even before the match started, Bilbao on paper was superior to Getafe, but Bilbao who played at home were not able to do much in the match, In fact, Bilbao was win with first a goal scored by Sancet in the 27th minute, but instead they lost concentration and even their defense looked very careless when the second half started,  Bilbao first match did not go well, so make they ended the first match in la liga with a score of 1-1.

I'm also quite surprised when Bilbao looked very weak in attack,  but coach didn't play him (nico william) faster in that match, so that gave rise to speculation that he might still be in poor condition at the moment, talking about speculation about Nico Williams, in my opinion all speculation has ended when he returned to the Bilbao training camp some time ago, Apart from that, he has confirmed that he will stay in Bilbao for now, so this means that the opportunity for Barcelona and PSG to recruit him has been tightly closed this season.

This season after Real Madrid bought Mbapep they will have more fans interested in watching the games of this team in stadiums. that's normal to see Real Madrid increase the price of tickets in this season to get more benefits considering the players they bought and the inflation during this year. But the fans of Real Madrid are now going to pay the minimum of 95 euros for in the cheapest situation which is going to be against Valladolid.
If I'm not wrong they increased the price of tickets by more than 70 percent.

Athletic Bilbao tactician Ernesto Valverde put Nico Williams on the bench until playing him on 72th minutes but can't help Bilbao securing three points on the first match after being draw by Getafe. Still not announce yet with Ernesto Valverde decision why put his important players on the bench due injured issues or internal problem that players linked with Barcelona due their interested for signing him.

Athletic Bilbao not perform well on the first match although had controlling ball possession more 70% than Getafe with 30% because have 7 shots with 4 on target. I think for second match, Ernesto Valverde must play Nico Williams on the first minutes if won't loss three points again or being draw, good start on the early season will motivate the players keep consistent their performance exactly Athletic Bilbao must break the Champion League spot standing for next season.

The Bilbao side have themselves to blame on this 1-1 draw, this is the first game of the season and every team would want to get all 3 point just to be at the top of the log but the manager Valverde gambled with the game, knowing quite well that the Getafe side also are hungry to make a statement and also want to get all 3pt, now you have see how difficult the defense line of your opponent are and the midfield down to the attacker are stronger and doing better than your team, why not bring in your attacking power Nico Williams to combine with his brother to make something happen but he waited till it was late, there was nothing to do with how the away team was pressing and defending, it was well planned by Getafe.
The away team played better to even put more pressure on the host and I was expecting a win but they (Getafe) were unlucky to not convert some of their chances and these guys became more faster than we used to know them, I just hope they continue like this to cause more problems to their opponent in the next game.

Girona's results in La Liga last year were exceptional, because due to their budget and population size, it is not normal for them to fight for the top positions, and they were normally a second division team. We had a similar case years ago with Deportivo de La Coruña, now in the second division, but who shone and managed to win a league and two Copa del Rey.

I just saw that La Liga has started and there are even 2 matches. I think the game will start this Saturday. Girona have contested and drawn. I think it was a pretty good start. Girona plays at Real Betis. So with good statistical conditions, Girona managed to control the match. I'm not too sure about Girona's condition this season. But this is also the same when thinking Girona will be out of the top 5 at the end of the season. But all my predictions were wrong, Girona was able to play well. There are opportunities for every team, but it is possible realistically a team with better players will perform better.
It is not easy for Girona to win at Real Betis headquarters, the home team always manages to trouble their opponents when playing Home and Away. Girona were lucky not to suffer a defeat in their first game of the La Liga season, but I am also not so sure about Girona ability this season. They managed to make a big surprise last season, but this season they will struggle to achieve the same achievement.
Girona have also lost one of their best strikers who moved to Roma, the departure of Artem Dovbyk will affect the sharpness of their front line. I have seen how Atletico Madrid and Barcelona reorganized their squads, while other teams were competing to bring in quality players, Girona sold their best player who managed to become the top scorer last season.

The bookies are starting the season with generosity in terms of the odds they are offering in some important matches that I consider high probability matches. One of such is Real Mallorca against Real Madrid where the later is given 1.51 odd which I consider a wonderful giveaway because Madrid will not lose their first match for any reason. I'm also seeing UD Las Palmas against Sevilla FC in which the away win or draw has 1.44 odds; combining these two matches will give over 200% ROI which is a pretty good way to start the season. This is not an investment advice, but just my personal opinion.

In fact, this could be an opportunity for the four teams that competed last night to steal an early position in the La Liga standings, but unfortunately the two matches only resulted in a draw and divided 1 point equally for each club. Real Betis vs Girona was a fairly balanced match but rather than losing points, this result is still acceptable.

But for Bilbao vs Getafe, this should have been 3 points for the host, but here Getafe, who came as a non-seeded team, certainly will not let that happen. Moreover, Getafe, who is categorized as a lower-ranked team, must certainly try to get points early in the competition to widen its gap from the lower standings. However, no one loses, of course, it will make the competition even more exciting and I look forward to a more surprising start to the competition than last night's match.

Girona were really seeming like they would lose at halftime. Because they played really poorly in the first half. But after some improvement they stole one point by 1-1. Playing away against Betis is always difficult for most teams in the La Liga. They lost home only 3 times last season. Congrats to people who bet on both teams to score for this one. I think it was logical to bet on. It seemed risky to bet on a side to me honestly as it was just the beginning.

I didn't watch Real Betis' game against Girona, but based on the highlights of the performances I've seen so far, Girona was lucky to draw the match; though both teams performed well, Betis attacked more than Girona. Girona's performance was poor in the first half, but they were able to draw the match thanks to Gabriel Misehouy, who scored one minute after being substituted. It is very risky to bet on a team at this point because it is the beginning of the season and not all of the teams will be at their best, maybe I'll wait two to three weeks because I can't afford to lose right now. Grin

Bilbao, on the other hand, I don't believe they drew against Getafe due to Nico Williams was on the bench till the 70th minute of the game, even without Nico Williams in the first half, they performed very well they missed several chances to score goals, Bilbao dominated the match with 70% ball possession, one can not get a team to win a game, it's only that victory was not on their side in the starting game. Bilbao will face Barcelona in their next game, and I can't wait to watch how Nico Williams will battle against Yamal.

Atletico Bilbao have opened the 2024/25 season with an early kickoff. Playing against a somewhat stubborn side in Getafe it's safe to say it's not going to be easy to get a win in the game. Although they started off very well and got an early goal thanks to Oihan Sancet, they could not maintain the dominance because in the second half, Getafe leveled up thanks to a Chris. Uche header.
 Right now Atletico Bilbao seem a bit shaky, making mistakes and looking like they have lost the confidence they began with in the first half and if care is not taken, Getafe may take the lead and if that should happen, it will be disastrous and disappointing because they have managed to go 19 games at home without a loss so losing will break that record and they will have to start the beginning of the season with a loss and if you ask me, that's not a good way to start.

The Bilbao side have themselves to blame on this 1-1 draw, this is the first game of the season and every team would want to get all 3 point just to be at the top of the log but the manager Valverde gambled with the game, knowing quite well that the Getafe side also are hungry to make a statement and also want to get all 3pt, now you have see how difficult the defense line of your opponent are and the midfield down to the attacker are stronger and doing better than your team, why not bring in your attacking power Nico Williams to combine with his brother to make something happen but he waited till it was late, there was nothing to do with how the away team was pressing and defending, it was well planned by Getafe.

The first 2 matches for La Liga where two surprise clubs (Bilbao and Girona) last season played today and the result was 1 point for each club with the same result where 1-1 was the score in 2 matches today.-snip-
Yes I also think it is 2 very interesting games to watch. Both teams get 1 point. I have predicted Girona's performance will decrease this season because they have sold their best player last season who was the top scorer in La Liga. But some of the reasons why artem dovbyk was sold is because the player really wants to join AS Roma. Yes AS Roma is a big club and Girona is a small club in La Liga even though they managed to surprise everyone last season. It seems like dovbyk wants to achieve another success with AS Roma in Serie A this season.

Inaki and Nico Williams play very well together on the wings, but I don't understand why Nico started the match as a substitute. Nico Williams showed himself and his quality at Euro 2024. I don't understand what coach Valverde Tejedor was trying to do by bringing him in later. After Getafe equalized, they played the match more defensively and deservedly got 1 point.

Atletico Madrid played very well in their last match in this pre-season and they managed to beat Juventus with score of 2-0 and this shows that Atletico Madrid is ready to start the new season with La Liga or other competitions.
In this match Atletico Madrid could not dominate the game with ball possession but they were able to take advantage of all the opportunities available and showed that their front line could create good gaps and could put pressure on the opponent defense.
Atletico Madrid is far superior in terms of attack, they also have fairly good defense line, this is the condition we want and it can make the future competition much more interesting.

I got pretty good odds from this match because Juventus is also not weak team so each team has high odds.


Atlético de Madrid football team won the match one sided. All the players of Atlético de Madrid team looked in good form and they gave good passes and saw excellent performance from  Correa and Félix. Because these two players were match winner because their team won due to their effort. I know  we can't underestimate the Juventus F.C. team because their players are also good but they could not perform wel in this match . The physique of players were impressive and I liked the goal of Félix because he did goal at right time when team needed that. The lineup of Atlético de Madrid was also perfect and they didn't give any chance to opponent team and that's why we saw the  easy win of Atlético de Madrid.
