High risk, high gain match for both of them. Can't wait...

heh! you're a lot more optimistic towards RM than me cuz i didn't consider AT ALL that a win for us would be massive result and also a big blow to Barca Cheesy

What do you guys think of Real draw no bet at 2.6 vs Barca?

risky but worth a shot (low stake maybe?), especially when you consider Zizou's record at the camp nou (no lossess and a couple of draws)...although, at those odds, i'd go with total goals and maybe corners too. Watch out for yellow cards, with Ramos and Casemiro, we might see a lot of fouls

What do you guys think of Real draw no bet at 2.6 vs Barca? Seems like value to me with all the books expecting another loss for Real due bad showing for the last couple of matches.

I think Zidane has been preparing his squad for El Clasico for the last two weeks.

@logfiles Betting against Valencia this season looks like the smart thing to do, though I wouldn't have put money on Elche either (even though I did make a nice 1-0 pick in Superbru). I'm still struggling to understand the teams this season but everywhere in the big four leagues now it seems to be a state of flux, not least La Liga.

I'm going for a solid 2-0 win here as well. Because, why not? Would have put 3 or even 4 but Ramos is in the lineup tonight.

My pick is 2:1 for Barca in our predictor but I will not put any money on Barca win <...>

i went with a 1-1 draw...I'm just too biased to predict my team losing to Barca lol but this match has all the ingredients to be a turning point for Barcelona, and to be the final nail in the coffin for Zidane (or maybe not? spanish journos are going at zizou pretty hard lately, tho, they want him to get the boot)

my biggest fear is not having Ramos, he could force to play but him being at 60% physically is just asking for trouble...tbh, anything but losing 3-0 or more is a good result, IMO

btw, no one cares but i lost my Friday ticket thx to Valencia last night, ffs!! this team is a ticking time bomb, i feel like they're gonna be fighting for relegation this season :/

You actually have very good point here. This game has often been the turning point for whole seasons and if real losses tonight after those 2 bad results, Zidane could really be in trouble. Especially if they lose with big result and bad performance. On the other hand if Real wins tonight all those prior bad results are forgotten and sun is shining in Madrid while Barca dressing room problems will get blown out of proportion

High risk, high gain match for both of them. Can't wait...

I hate Valencia this season, they are bad but if I try to capitalize on their poor performances they surprise me and get a point or all three. Better to avoid them completely.

When Barca and Real clash all previus form and results usually don't mean much. Barca entered the season with lots of problems and it seemed like this should be an easy season for Real but Barca positively surprised all of us and actually played some very solid football. Real has arguably looked quite bad so far and Barca should have an upper hand in this match on their home pitch.

My pick is 2:1 for Barca in our predictor but I will not put any money on Barca win, if I play something it will be both to score or maybe both to score and Barca to not lose. Real VARdrid can always get a push from the judges or just buckle up and play a perfect game, they have more than enough quality to pull it off. Anyway looking forward to the game and can't wait for that first whistle

I'm with you Harko. I mean, regardless of form and whatever, I'm always going to pick my own team to win, and the past few years we actually have the better record but all this is meaningless every meet and this time, I actually feel we have the upper hand, just on the basis of confidence and the actual form from the key players. Glad Coutinho is on a fine run, I have a feeling he'll play a role.

Absolutely gutted on the Elche Vs Valencia Pick. My initial prediction was Elche 2:1 Valencia then later on just before the match started, I edited it to Elche 1:2 Valencia Embarrassed

FC Barcelona vs Real Madrid CF on October 24 - best odds: 2.03 - 3.31 - 2.93. Both teams are the best in the Spanish LA Liga and both lost their last duels. This time I bet on Barça because I more believe in Koeman then in Zedane. Apart of that Barça plays home. Wink

I predicted Barcelona to win 2:1. I support Real Madrid but our team has not been up to the good standard lately. Hopefully they resurrect in that match otherwise we might get some good pounding.

I'm also having Barcelona to win (but as a Barcelona fan), Barcelona as well haven't been flawless this season and there is still a lot of improvements that needs to be done, both in attack and defensively, that said, I believe the game is going to be a very close one, with a marginal victory for either team.

2 - 0 win for Barcelona Wink

I expected @buwaytress to cash in on at least one of those surprises

Me too! He picked a few Real Madrid upsets last season, so surprised he didn't get any of last night's right:) I actually picked 1-1 on the Cadiz game but shocking to see only 1 attempt from Real vs 8 from Cadiz!

But of course Barca must slip when Real slips, scratching my head with them but to be fair, Getafe's a tough nut:)

Still in 2nd place

Damn it. Of all the upsets I did not even consider tonight, Cadiz beats Real Madrid? Grumble grumble. Not having a good night in any of the big leagues tonight. Some parlays still alive, but that will require Barca to take full advantage of Real's slip up and smash a few good goals in. What a night so far.

What a day in Spain, both Real and Barca not just dropping points but losing their games. Sevilla also losing their game to make a perfect day for underdogs. There is 4 of us in the pool with 0 points today so that just shows how unexpected these results were. Bookies have made a fortune tonight for sure but I somehow managed to avoid all those bloopers and even end the day in small profit.

insane, but congrats to Cadiz, I have 0 points earned so far in this round, and have 0:2 for Barcelona, but, let's see what is Getafe capable of :-D

I don't know if I will be betting on this Atletico match but if I do only options are under and draw. Everything else is just loosing money when Atletico is in the picture.

I am 100% sure I will not watch the match. No more losing my time on them, at least until they play Real, Barca or somebody watchable in Champions League.

I don't like to play Under scored goals, but
Celta has a very hard time scoring goals at the start of this season, and there were no scored goals for Atletico the last two matches
The four previous duels of these rivals were ineffective as well Roll Eyes

I didn't even analyze this match and only bet Over 1.5 @ 1.45 and I'm lucky this time, at least Atletico were able to score his second goal in the final minute. The next game I bet Real Madrid -1.5 @ 1.80 but for Barcelona, I only bet Over 1.5 @ 1.30, maybe that would be a safe bet. Btw, I'm just predicting based on feeling without looking at H2H or anything else in the bet this time. Good luck all!

Anyone dare to bet for Atletico to lose this time? Maybe they actually need to LOSE first before they change their strategy because they are still stubborn to believe they can defend and then hit back on the counter. Good strategy for KO competitions but sucky in the league I personally feel.

Betting for an Under 2.5 score for the Atlético Madrid match makes much sense than full time result Cheesy

I don't know where everything seems to have gone wrong for them at the moment. With the Arrival of Luis Suarez, I expected them to be a free scoring team but that doesn't seem to be the case lately.

Yeah, fair enough, especially since the odds are all the same around 2/1 for under 2.5 and around the same for Atleti to win. At least if we still get a 1-1 draw you win that one, but you never know these games. Suarez is a serial scorer and once he gets his blood running he could knock in a few and assist a few. Maybe this season that is their game, score a lot, draw a lot.

Anyway, 0-1 now at HT so both bets look good. Atletico defending as usual;)

Well, Celta De Vigo although vulnerable away from home is one of the toughest team to beat at home. But this season, the team hasn't found the rhythm yet and also lost one of its best performing player of the last season, Rafinha. Atletico was irritating to watch in last two games but this time surely has a chance. Steve picked Atletico in his Steve's Magic selections, I am also going for 1-2 in favor of Atleti. Carrasco was on fire in Nations League, can be instrumental in tonight's game.

But the trickiest game of the matchday is Getafe vs Barcelona. Koeman is not gonna play Messi and few other vital players in the starting lineup due to fatigue (that game vs Bolivia at the height of 3.6K meters was insane!). So youngster like Trincao and Dest will have chance to play for full 90 minutes. But Getafe is deadly on counter-attacks, you make a mistake and they will throw ball into your nets in just 5-6 passes. Cucurella at Left Back is majestic to watch! It would be tough day for Lenglet and Pique to stop the counter-attacks and let see if Messi has to come on the pitch in second half or not.
