Depending on Atletico Madrid’s clash with Elche away, this might be a “do or die” matchup for Real Madrid. If they win, and Atletilose, the Whites will move on top of La Liga, at least until Sunday. Whatever happens, they muststay close to their city rivals, and away from their arch-rivals Barcelona, if they want to repeat their 2019-20 La Liga success.

However, Zinedine Zidane andthecompany’sAchilles heelthis season have beennone other butthe lower positioned clubs. Madrid have failed to win againstElche, Levante, Real Sociedad, Getafe, Betis, andthat’s onlytheir negative record in 2021. In addition, there is also thefirst clash against Osasuna on January 9. On the other hand, in their most recent games, Osasuna have beaten clubs such as Valencia and Villarreal. As a result, betting thatthis game ends in a 1-1 draw could be a sure bet, at +850, a $100 bet could earn the bettor $850.If you got to pick anyone to put the ball in the back of the net in this game look no further thanKarim Benzema,as heis at +220 to bethe first one to score.

Barcelona had the chance of their lives to overtake Atletico and Real Madrid in Round 34, but they succumbed to the pressureandsuffered a shocking 2-1 defeat to Granada.

Of course, it won’t be easy with their head coach Ronald Koemanbeing ruled out of the matchup after receiving a red cardinthe Granada loss. With the Bats being far from their prestigious years this campaign, and Barcelona having to keep their title hopes alive,thismightbe the chance for us to see some more goals. Thus,betting that the gameendsin a 3-1 win for Barca could be a sure bet, at +850, a $100 bet could earn the bettor $850.If you got to pick anyone to put the ball in the back of the net in this game look no further thanLionel Messi,as heis at +180 to bethe first one to score.
