Eventful last few mins, Bale assaulting Alba for a deserved disallowed goal and good old Ramos finally got his marching order again!

 

[SALTIRE]

Wow Penaldo scores from open play!

 

[SALTIRE]

Barca lose their first game in 40 matches, some going. Oh well its too little too late for Real anyway but they'll take a bit of pride from this I suppose.

 

[The Iron]

I can't believe i missed this game, but Barca will still go on to win the league comfortably.

 

[Stevencc]

I heard that Bale was fantastic and Suarez was shockingly bad - any truth to these reports, Saltire?

 

[Nath]

Suarez, Neymar and Messi were anonymous.

Bale did good defensive work on Alba mostly (unlike CR7 on Dani Alves) and RM were well drilled all over the pitch. Huge win for Zidane.

Betis - Levante

It’s game 14thand 20thteams of La-League, the aim is not to fly out. Betis’s chances are of course better and Levante isn’t going to give up. Betis has 3 defeats in a row and will try not to disappoint fans in the upcoming match.

H2H on corners were successful for hosts – they won 4 of 7 matches (3 games were at home). Betis supervised 15 home games in the league, won 6 of them on corners, 7 defeats and 2 draws. The team got 2 wins on corners in last 4 tournament games, once was defeated and played draw game with one of the leaders Atletico Madrid. Levante played 15 away games and won only 3 times. The team takes very few corners at away on average 3.4 per match. In general, you can try to bet on hosts’ win on corners with 1.55 odds, maybe with “-1” handicap with 1.73 odds.

Total is very interesting in this match: bookies offer 9.5 total small biased towards over. The reason why I agree with this opinion is that Betis’s home games this total was covered 5 times. They took 9 corners in the match, in which total wasn’t exceeded, it means that it was too close to cover. Covering 9.5 total at away matches of Levante isn’t rarity – in 5 of 8 last matches total was exceeded. But you should cautiously bet on total over 9.5 corners. A small quantity of taking by Levante corners can make itself felt.


Sporting - Celta

One of league outsiders will play home game with one of the leaders. Celta can be absolutely calm about its place in Europa League in the next season. On the otherhand, Sporting really need win in order to try toy to fly out and to stay on next season in the Primera.

Ironically, despite outsider status, Sporting looks very confidently on corners: 11 wins in 15 matches. 2 of 4 defeats Sporting got by Barcelona and Real Madrid – grand teams, with which every team feel really difficult to compete, not mentioning modest Sporting. Should be admitted that first of all team gets wins on corners because doesn’t allow to take encounters corners – on average 3.33 corners a game (it’s the second in the League).

Celta doesn’t look convincingly enough on corners: only 4 wins in 15 away games. The team took 15 corners in last 3 games, although the team has hardly take 3 corners a game in 6 tournament week before. If to compare how Sporting allows to encounters take corners, it won’t be surprise that Celta’s players will take maximum 5 corners.

You can try to bet on Sporting’s win on corners with 1.75 odds and also bet on hosts with 2 odds in "Race to (5) of the corners" in this match.

God bless Sociedad, they've actually managed to make the final run in at least mildly interesting even if the ball is well and truly firmly in Barca's court.

Barca's record at Sociedad over the last 5 years or so is absolutely shocking. They need to get their finger out again, thats only 1 point in the last three games for them. The front three are looking a bit tired as well.

 

[mistermagic]

Valencia 2-0 up at the Camp Nou at half-time. Got G Nev's dirty work written all over it that.

 

[Stevencc]

Potentially three league losses in a row for Barca.

Bottlers!

 

[Bilo]

Wtf has happened to Barca? Just turned this on when I saw the score.

 

[JimJams]

Luis Enrique has been getting some tips from Wenger.

 

[mistermagic]

We got ourselves a title race. Good.

All this thanks to G Nev's thankless work a while back of course.

 

[MJA]

Barca are in a right slump. It's easy to coach/manage the worlds best players when they are on form but can Enrique turn this current run around?

Atletico Madrid to claim a La Liga/Champs League double is where my money would go if I had any

 

[voltage]

Would really like to see Atlético Madrid taking the national title.

When Jordi Alba chose another option instead of giving the ball to Neymar, the latter shouted "Go fuck yourself! What? What? You got a problem?" to the Spaniard.

It's all falling apart over there, isn't it?

Great to watch.

 

[SALTIRE]

Be interesting to see it tonight. I'll be watching Klopp get Mythinez punted though.

 

[JimJams]

They won't sack Martinez even if they lost 4-0.

 

[Destruction]

Can't wait for Athletic v Atletico, the two most likeable sides in La Liga (after Eibar, Betis and Rayo).

 

[Bobbin']

Barca are back.

 

[Stevencc]

Eight.

Jesus.

 

[Destruction]

Classic Suarez. Did fuck all when it mattered last week then boosts his numbers against Norwich La Coruna.

 

[Pyeman]

Some of those Barca goals were ridiculously good.

 

[JimJams]

Good to see they weren't hypocrites and eased up on the ooposition before it became a ridiculous scoreline. They wouldn't want to do something they openly criticised Real for doing.

I feel like I've said this before.

 

[mistermagic]

They won't sack Martinez even if they lost 4-0.

Tell you something...

 

[JimJams]

Real getting dicked by Rayo currently...

 

[JoshBCFC]

They're all bottling it!

 

[JimJams]

The mighty Bale gets them the win.
