[Football] Spanish La Liga Discussion & Betting Thread

[hushpupppy]

After Gameweek 17; Atletico Madrid remain top of the log with 2 points and 2 unplayed matches while Barcelona are for the first time this season in the fray of the top 4. Can they mount a title challenge ?

[hushpupppy]

Todays tie in the la liga will be between Celta Vigo - Villarreal
6 points seperate Villareal who is 5th from 8th placed Celta vigo; a win takes Villarreal to the top 4 mix while Celta vigo would remain mid table.

I see a draw here  Celta Vigo 2 - 2 Villarreal

^ Well a draw is likely but I'm a bit hesitant about the total goals. Maybe a 2 or 3 with both teams scoring at least 1. I might just skip this because these are the types of games that I prefer betting on live than pre-match but time is too late for me.

Villareal netted four goals in the first half against Celta Vigo and that moved them up to third. I'm glad I skipped that one lol. I would have lost the bet for total goals. I'm pretty sure the 1x2 odds dropped to as low as 1.01 for Villareal after 20 minutes.

Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid will be in action later today. A draw for both matches is likely.

Sevilla - Real Sociedad
Postponed Atl. Madrid - Ath Bilbao
Granada CF - Barcelona
Osasuna - Real Madrid

Atletico Madrid now has 3 unplayed games as their tie against Atletico Bilbao was postponed to a later date due to a bad weather. But Atletico Madrid top of the league with 2 points.

Real Madrid has an opportunity to be top of the standings for the first time this season with a win away at Osasuna; while Barcelona will look to reduce the points deficit when they face Granada

Real Sociedad woes continues as they lost to Sevilla. That match was kinda fun to watch as they traded four goals in the first fifteen minutes. I haven't seen a match like that before.

Too bad Atl Madrid match was cancelled due to extreme weather condition. They will be forced to play three games in a short time to catch up with the rest of the leading team. That could be bad as the end of the season draws near.

In addition, Barcelona thrashed Granada away from home and from the excellence performance it seems as though Koeman and Barcelona has found their mojo back; right in time to compete for the la liga trophy. Madrid are currently playing a goaless draw away at osasuna at the 60th minute

It is bad for Real Madrid. They should get three points against Osasuna. They played full team, their best 3 midfielders played together, Benzema and Hazard were also there. I think Real Madrid really missed the chances to compete with Atletico Madrid for the title. I am sure many fans of Real Madrid unsatisfied with this result!!

Levante - Eibar
Cadiz CF - Alaves
Valladolid - Valencia

La liga clashes today my prediction below:

Levante 2  1- Eibar
Cadiz CF 0 - 2 Alaves
Valladolid 1 - 3  Valencia

[Alter]

Cadiz CF 0 - 2 Alaves

It is wrong, mate. Cadiz won the match, Cadiz 3-1 Alaves. Cadiz strikers played very well today, I really appreciate Negredo and Lozano. Just look at the table, Cadiz is in the top 10 right now. I think this club has a bright future if we look at their performance this season. Let's see how consistent they play till the end of the season.

You are right, Cádiz has a great emergence, it is worth noting, and being among the top 10 in the league already means something, we must remember that it has to compete with the teams that are of the highest world class.

Granada CF - Osasuna
Atl. Madrid - Sevilla

League Leaders Atletico Madrid with 1 point and 3 unplayed games face Sevilla at home today; the team has had enough rest and would be confident and fresh going into the tie. A convenient victory for Madridsta team

Osasuna denied Real Madrid at the weekend only to lose effortlessly away at Granada, while Atletico MADRID made their title bid known by outclassing Sevilla at their home ground to go 4 points and 3 unplayed games clear of second place Real Madrid. Can they run away with the league ?

~ to go 4 points and 3 unplayed games clear of second place Real Madrid.

They are two games behind Real Madrid. It's Real Sociedad who played 19 games so far while the rest are 18.

Yes this is very right; it seems as if the tie against Sevilla itself was a previously postponed tie.
