Matchday 19 kicks off next friday with Valencia - Espanyol. FC Barcelona will visit Mallorca on sunday without 4 players because of covid and possibly Dembele too due to an injury (still not confirmed by the club). So far, next matchday will carry on as planned despite real sociedad, espanyol and celta having a lot of new covid cases in their squads.

Dembele injured? What? No way man! Grin

Anyway, I'm not too worried with the injuries and absences because other clubs will be quite affected as well. At this point I'm not going to be disappointed if we even have to play a full academy in our defence lol

For now it's not big deal because it's break now. But following what happens in other leagues and sports, it's worrying thing. I can't remember such big outbreaks last season when there were no vaccines, it was few players at same time usually. Now there is many cases when half of team get positive test results.
In other news, Barca officially signed Ferran Torres. It's great stuff, but I'm not sure how current Barca were able to find €55 millions.

Yeah like I said I guess after the break all the positives will recover, but it's about the next wave of infections, and how they might view stadiums and even games as spreading vectors.

City the winner, and Barca the loser again (financially). Who was talking about Xavi and only 10 million yesterday? hehe

Seems like we're getting new Covid positives over in Catalan teams. Lenglet's positive, Alves also, and Espanyol has more than half the team also positive. Good that we're in break and supposed to play only in 14 days so 2 weeks should even be enough to clear the current cases.

But if the outbreak gets worse, then it spreads and then I'm not sure what to think of La Liga fixtures.

Be careful about Real tonight guys, they are missing 11 players. Source local portal index.
Covid: Alaba, Isco, Modrić, Marcelo, Bale, Rodrygo, Asensio and Lunin
Injuries: Ceballos and Carvajal
Cards: Casemiro

They still have great first 11, but the bench will be depleted and their midfield will not be the same without Modric and Casemiro. Time for Camavinga to shine Smiley

So this was the post I missed when I made my bets last night (again, none of my mistakes or corrections mattered for the past 2 days as I was let down hugely by other legs). To be fair, I'd definitely have skipped this if I read your post above. Again, inconsequential thanks to shitty picks in other legs.

Granada is back in business lately, 4:1 with Mallorca, now Atletico
Atletico is really down, and this opens third and fourth place race for a moment, and Valencia is also in the race, simply great

Granada were my fav underdogs a couple of seasons ago, and have to admit Atletico last season generally were good for solid padding odds but I honestly can't bring myself to back Granada this season. Even Valencia, well, the day I grab them (odds were 27/10), Atletico failed so I lost a tidy number of accas, not to mention other markets.

I'm sort of glad Serie A is on holiday til Jan, I'm tricking away money at such a fast pace on "sure things".

it is hard to expect a draw from Granada, although I would not be surprised to see 0:0 in the end, Atletico is in bad shape obviously
2-1 Granada. you hate to see it. fun fact: i almost added this game to a parlay earlier today but atletico odds were too low,, dodged a bullet on that one

regarding Real, yeah, they could miss 20 players, and still be favorites, even against Sevilla or Betis in good shape, not to mention any other team in the league, big difference between top teams and the rest (for me, exact score to shine a light on this round)

yep, but, unless we're playing with the Real Madrid Castilla squad, i'll never predict a draw/loss in our pool or anywhere else,, can't send any negative vibes to my team, ya know?  Wink
It seems as long as Benzema is not the one missing there is no fear for Real. This will be the easiest title in La Liga for as long as I can remember. Real is actually playing well but even if they were not there simply isn't any other contenders this year. Atletico and Barca already lost way too much points while Sevilla and Betis can have good spells but no way they will have the constant to win La Liga.

First goal from Benzema was a real beauty, i think he surprised everyone whit the decision to curl it first time. Whole action looked like they would circle the ball few more times around 16 yards box.

Well, Sevilla dropped points, Barca dropped points AND jordi alba got hit in the face...i'd say it was a good day  Smiley

LOL Yeah I think Kounde felt like this was totally worth it, I love my club but I'll never really get over the way some of them just look like silly kids pretending to be hurt.

I also got Atletico to win, but damn Granada are spoiling all our parties all the time.

between Sevilla staying in good form/as title contenders until April and Barcelona possibly winning the league title at the end of the season, i would go all-in Barcelona lol Sevilla always shit the bed in the league 😂
This season seems everyone shit the bed early lol and Real will win it without being the best.

I really wanted Atletico to defend their title but jeeeez they ate something bad and got diarrhea long before 19 games.

i've got both Real and Atletico to win today...anyone else?


most probably, whole pool have it that way

Real should win, they did not score against Cadiz, two matches without scoring would be more than unexpected, and Bilbao is not playing bus-goal football, which should provide goals

nevertheless, Valencia won 3:4, so everything good
a bit late but, that was one of the best games i've watched in La Liga this season

Sevilla are the only threat now it seems. Beat Atletico, Drew Barca, hope they keep this up until April because that's when they next meet Real Madrid for revenge.

Very painful for me to comment. In a way, I guess I should really thank the fact that I live many hours away from my football club, so when they don't win, I'm at least not watching it so.

Reports seem to say they deserved to win, but a point was not unfair also.

worst round for me since the beginning, changed yesterday Sevilla to 2:1 home win from 1:1, booger
Did exactly the same thing, glad I was not alone Smiley

Expected more form Sevila due to recent results but according to reports I read, Barca was much closer to victory yesterday. I am taking this as a good sign for Barca and expecting them to start playing better and climb up the table towards Champions League spots.

Draw between Barcelona and Sevilla left me mixed emotions. If someone would had offered such result before game, I would take it without thinking much. But when you play against 10 men Sevilla, offcourse you want for something more. In general, it was solid game and we let Sevilla to make just 1 shot on target.
Real should be happy about this result. They will play against Athletic tomorrow. On paper it looks quite difficult opponent for them, but Athletic haven't won at home against Real since 2015.

expected more from Sevilla last night, especially after they lucky scored first goal
but they are obviously worse than my view of them, although they got four points from two matches with top3 teams, it is good from any measure

Pity for Levante, they didn't played bad. With just 8 points after 18 rounds they're heading to Segunda in straight way.

yeah, it seems that after several season, Valencia will be the only La Liga club in town, which will make it down to three cities with two or more clubs in La Liga

what about tonight, is it possible for Sevilla to get two wins over top3 clubs in few days, Atletico was down in last minutes, without play to support their win
so, they could play better tonight against Barca, maybe even to get another win, although Ocampos will not be there to help

great match last night, seven goals, and we won
it looked bad in the beginning, being two goals down, but we played solid at those moments as well, and score four afterwards
Usually Monday night football is quite boring thing, but not this time, Valencia derby was great. Levante were leading 2:0, but Valencia comeback with 4 goals in a row was impressive thing.

Yeah too bad I didn't switch on to watch, thought my night was ruined betting wise but now I get to save my ticket and root for Atletico on my last freebet from predictions.


Also smacked Soccer Blackjack into a high bust, but at least got a point out of the correct outcome, and now the gap has closed again.

Coming to 19th game day, which is exactly halfway point. 3-2 Barca, 4-3 Valencia, loads of goals, makes everyone happy.

back above Barca Smiley , three wins in a row, with Atletico and Sociedad having three loses in a row, and it is a point between us
