0:49my thoughts on League N the Bundesliga
0:51and Syria as they also return this
0:54weekend as well. But you know what?
0:56Because it has been such a long while,
0:58let's get straight over to the
0:59prediction page straight away because we
1:01have got 10 fixtures for you in La Liga
1:03this weekend. Starting off with one game
1:05tonight. So, let's get straight into it.
1:08The opening game of the La Liga weekend
1:10comes right from the bottom of the La
1:13Liga table where we find a Malaga side
1:15without a win so far this season taking
1:18on Espanol who to be fair aren't doing
1:20that much better with seven points from
1:23their opening seven games down in 15.
1:26Before the international break, Malaga
1:28made it back-to- back defeat, losing 1-0
1:30away to in a game where, to be fair to
1:33them, they did hold out for the vast
1:35majority of the match making it to the
1:37final 10 minutes. But then their left
1:39back and their goalkeeper were both
1:41nutmeg by the same player leading to
1:44that goal and that meant that it is
1:46their fourth defeat of the season out of
1:49their opening seven games. And like I
1:50say, they are literally last in the La
1:53Liga table after the first portion of
1:55the season. As for Espanol, they also
1:58went into the international break
1:59following back-to- back defeats. And
2:01their most recent game was by far their
2:03worst result of the season so far as
2:06they lost 3-1 at home to Elchce. And
2:09Elchce spent basically the entire match
2:12with 10 men after a six-minute red card.
2:15And it was just pure complacency from
2:18Espanol. I guess they just assumed that
2:20they were going to win the match from
2:21that position cuz if you've not seen the
2:22defending and the goalkeeping that
2:24allowed Elch's opening two goals is an
2:27absolute disgrace. They were able to
2:29pull one back in the second half but
2:31even that was through an own goal and
2:33then it got even worse because straight
2:35from kickoff Elchce still with 10 men
2:38made it 3-1 and after a decent start to
2:41their campaign it's now really not
2:43looking good for Espanol coming out of
2:45that international break. In terms of
2:48the team news for the opening game of La
2:50Liga, no fresh concerns for either side,
2:52but the bad news also is no returns for
2:55any of the players that both of these
2:57sides were missing prior to the
2:59international break. The last time that
3:01these two sides met, it was 5 years ago
3:03in the second tier of La Liga with
3:05Espanol winning both home and away by
3:08three goals to nil. and Espanol have
3:10actually won six of the last seven games
3:14where they have come to Malaga on
3:16current form. I honestly think that this
3:18one could go either way. And I'm going
3:20to start La Liga's weekend with a 1-1
3:23draw between Malaga and Espanol.
3:26On to the opening game on Saturday and
3:29this sees two sides both on eight points
3:31going headtohead here with Rea Viao
3:33taking on athletic club Bill Bao. Before
3:36the international break, both sides were
3:38on fairly decent form with Viaano
3:40winning at home to Espanol before then
3:42drawing 1-1 away at Osuna thanks to yet
3:45another goal from forward Camello. He's
3:48now got seven in seven at the start of
3:50the La Liga season. But his goal did
3:53come after Vakano fell behind in the
3:55first half and despite in my opinion
3:57being the better team for the rest of
3:59the match. They were unable to find a
4:00winner. However, they have also won
4:02their last two home games ahead of this
4:04one. They're going to be full of
4:05confidence they can make it three out of
4:07three here. As for Bill Ba, they are now
4:10four La Liga games unbeaten after losing
4:12their first two, but it should be noted
4:14that they do actually have a game in
4:16hand after a game was rained off. So
4:18even though these two sides are on the
4:20same number of points, you would say
4:21that Bill Ba are on the slightly better
4:23form. Their previous game ahead of the
4:26international break was one that they
4:27absolutely dominated from start to
4:30finish against Alves. However, despite
4:32having 24 attempts to Alves's two in the
4:35match, they weren't able to find the
4:37breakthrough and even saw a sun penalty
4:40saved as well, meaning that nil nil is
4:42how it finished. It would be very
4:43disappointing for them. They weren't
4:45able to convert that into a victory. In
4:48terms of the team news ahead of this
4:49game, there are no fresh concerns for
4:51the home side, but it's yet another
4:53international break and yet another
4:56injury for Nikico Williams, which could
4:58see him out for athletic club Bill Bao
5:01up until the next international break.
5:03It doesn't look like it's a good injury
5:05for him. Last season, it ended 1-1 on
5:08this ground with Bill Ba taking it at
5:10home. Bill Bar actually unbeaten on
5:12their last seven visits to Viao dating
5:15all the way back to 2014. And
5:18personally, I think that unbeaten run is
5:20going to continue this weekend. But
5:22after the fact they have had
5:24back-to-back draws and given the fact
5:26that Viao do have a very strong home
5:28record so far this season, I'm not
5:30confident enough to give Bill Bao the
5:32victory here. I don't think I've done
5:34this in a very long while, but I'm
5:35actually starting off with two draws to
5:38open the La Liga weekend once again 1-1
5:41between Viaano and Bill Bao. The second
5:45game on Saturday comes from Alves, who
5:47despite their dip in form towards the
5:49start of the international break, still
5:51find themselves up in sixth place in the
5:53table after going unbeaten in their
5:55opening four matches. They're going to
5:57be taking on an Atletico Madrid side who
5:59will be absolutely full of confidence
6:01after going into the break with three
6:03straight wins in the league and capping
6:05it off with a massive result in the
6:07Madrid derby. We'll start off with Alves
6:10though who actually were on a run of
6:11back-to-back defeats before gameweek
6:13seven, but they were able to turn it
6:15round by getting a nil nil draw against
6:17athletic club Bill Bao. Tanaglia did his
6:19best to get them in trouble when he was
6:21a judge to a trip Niko Williams. Though
6:23personally, I don't think it was a
6:26penalty. I don't understand why V ended
6:28up giving it, but justice was served in
6:30my opinion when goalkeeper Sea ended up
6:33saving that penalty and between him and
6:35the rest of the defense, they were able
6:37to keep Bill Bao out and hold on to a
6:40nil nil draw. But it is still a slight
6:42concern that off the back of those
6:43backto-back defeats, only two attempts
6:46on goal from 35% possession in the
6:48match, they're going to need a serious
6:50step up in this game if they're going to
6:52stand any chance of getting anything
6:53against Atletico Madrid here. As for the
6:56away side, I think the only
6:57disappointment from their gameweek seven
6:59game against Real Madrid is that the
7:01score line was only two goals to one cuz
7:03they really should have won it by an
7:05awful lot more. To be fair, the first
7:07half was a bit of a non-event, but it
7:09all came to life in the second half when
7:10Giuliano Simeone was brought down in the
7:13penalty area, giving Real Madrid a red
7:16card as well. Gronaldo stepped up and
7:18converted it 5 minutes later. Jonathan
7:20David made it to a very good day for
7:22Atletico's new signings. But despite
7:24plenty more opportunities from that
7:26point onwards, they weren't able to
7:28extend that lead and even got pegged
7:30back in the final 5 minutes. But it
7:32wasn't enough to stop Atletico Madrid
7:34making it back-to- back home wins in the
7:36Madrid derby and three wins in a row in
7:38La Liga. Surely they are the favorites
7:40for this match. In terms of the team
7:43news, there is an international issue a
7:45piece coming out of the break as Kosski
7:47is going to be out for Alves following
7:49his injury and Grimaldo despite not
7:51actually playing in the international
7:53break did pick up an injury on his camp
7:56and is going to be out for this match.
7:58Alves to be fair to them actually have a
8:00great home record against Atletico
8:02Madrid being unbeaten here in the last
8:04four seasons with the last two meetings
8:06on this ground ending in draws. However,
8:09the form that these two sides were in
8:11prior to the international break, it
8:13stands to reason that Atletico Madrid
8:14are going to break that streak here and
8:16get their first win in five seasons. And
8:19that's exactly what I'm going for here.
8:21I'm going for a two-nil win to Atletico
8:24Madrid. Now, to the is it too early to
8:28say this already runaway leaders of La
8:31Liga Barcelona as they're going to be
8:32taking on Hetafe in the penultimate game
8:35on Saturday. For Barcelona, they have
8:37simply won every single game so far this
8:40season and went into the international
8:41break with a 3-1 away win to Sevilla
8:44thanks to a second consecutive hattick
8:47from Rafinia who unsurprisingly also
8:49took the La Liga player of the month.
8:51They did actually fall behind in the
8:53match. They failed to deal with a run
8:54from midfield, but it was almost like
8:56that goal sort of snapped them into life
8:58cuz Rafinia got his first a few minutes
9:00later and they went on to absolutely
9:02dominate the game and run away with it
9:04three goals to one. Andy ended up being
9:05a perfect hattick from Rafinia. Right
9:08foot then header then left foot and it
9:10is 21 points and a 21 for them going
9:13into part two of this La Liga season.
9:16Standing in their way this weekend will
9:18be a Hafe side who left it very late to
9:21get a 1-nil home win against Malaga
9:23before the break. But that goal was well
9:25worth the wait when Ajon picked the ball
9:27up on the right hand side. Nutmeg the
9:29Malaga defender. Held off the Malaga
9:31center back and then nutmeged the Malaga
9:33goalkeeper as well to get the winner.
9:35They did ride their luck at times as
9:37well as Malaga did have a goal. This
9:39allowed earlier in the match for
9:40offside. But on the balance of the
9:42chances created, I think it was the
9:44right result that Gafe ended up winning
9:46that match. However, in my opinion,
9:48they're going to need even an absolutely
9:50awful lot more if they stand any chance
9:52of stopping the lead liers here. In
9:55terms of the team news, there is some
9:57doubt over Rafinia after picking up an
9:59injury for Brazil over the international
10:01break. Joan Garcia is also expected to
10:03be out in goal for them, which means
10:05that Levakovic will be returning for
10:07them. Satriano picked up a knock during
10:09international duty for Uruguay and he is
10:11going to be a doubt for the away side.
10:14Unsurprisingly, Barcelona have won the
10:16last eight meetings on this ground
10:17between these two sides and the last 11
10:21between these sides in all competitions.
10:23Have to imagine that both of those runs
10:25are going to be extended here. I'm going
10:28for a 4nil win to Barcelona. The final
10:32game on Saturday then sees Real Madrid
10:35hosting Villa Royale in what is a battle
10:36of last year's second place and third
10:39place sides from La Liga. Real Madrid
10:41actually come into this down in fourth
10:43after what was quite frankly a disaster
10:45for them in the Madrid derby after a
10:48pretty poor first half. It was then Dean
10:50Hoen who completely blew this game up
10:52when he dragged down the Atletico Madrid
10:54forward in the penalty area. penalty
10:57definitely a red card as well because he
10:58wasn't making any attempt to play the
11:00ball and then after going one nil down
11:02from the penalty failure to adapt to
11:04going down to 10 men then meant they
11:05ended up going 2-0 down and they were
11:08very lucky it didn't end up being the
11:09five that they conceded at last season
11:13Rüiger was able to pull a goal back late
11:15on for them following a free kick but
11:17ultimately it was not enough to stop
11:19them suffering back-to- back away
11:21defeats in the Madrid derby and they're
11:23already now six points behind Barcelona
11:25in the La Liga title race. They have
11:27though won all three of their home
11:29matches so far this season. As for Villa
11:32Royale, after no win in their opening
11:34five fixtures, it's actually backto back
11:36wins for them. And that's already seen
11:38them jump all the way from the
11:39relegation zone up to ninth place. And
11:42their most recent match saw them
11:43completely dominate Levante. Now, I
11:46don't normally talk about XG cuz I think
11:47it's a stupid stat, but V Royale had 4.3
11:51xG to Levante's 0.4. They will actually
11:54probably be a little bit disappointed
11:56that it only ended up being the 3-1
11:58victory, but it was all thanks to a
11:59great performance from Malero who picked
12:01up a goal as well as the other two
12:03assists. A perfect confidence boost they
12:05needed ahead of such a big game.
12:07Although will that 3-we break have cost
12:09that momentum? In terms of the team
12:12news, Dean Hoisen obviously is going to
12:13be suspended for Real Madrid, who could
12:16also be without all of the following.
12:17Canate, Valverde, and Mbappe, who all
12:20picked up various issues over the course
12:22of the last few weeks. Only Taan
12:24Buchanan is going to be out for V
12:26Royale. So, there really is an
12:27opportunity for them to strike here. The
12:30last two seasons, Real Madrid have won
12:32both home and away in this fixture and
12:34are actually unbeaten in all meetings
12:36between these two sides since 2023.
12:39Personally, I do think that run is going
12:41to continue, but if all of those big
12:43stars are missing for the home side,
12:45this could end up being a very close
12:47one. I'm going for a 21 win to Real
12:51Madrid. The opening game on Sunday comes
12:53from Elchce and it sees two sides who
12:55seriously struggled in the opening part
12:57of the season in Elchce and Seltviggo. I
13:00say they both struggled. They actually
13:02both ended up getting their first wins
13:04of the La Liga season in the final game
13:06before the international break. And for
13:08Elchce, it was without doubt their best
13:11performance of the season so far. It
13:13started off in the worst possible
13:15fashion when Roondo was sent off in
13:17literally the third minute of the match
13:19following a V review. away to Espanol.
13:22But a very resolute defensive
13:24performance from that point onwards and
13:26some brilliant counterattacking meant
13:28that Nino was able to score twice before
13:30Espanol got a goal. So 10 men 2-0 up and
13:33then a third from Varela to secure the
13:36victory after Espanol did grab one back.
13:38It was purely and simply the most
13:40unlikely of 3-1 away wins. Again, a
13:43reminder LJ had the worst away record in
13:46La Liga last season. They've gone and
13:48picked up a 3-1 away win with 10 men in
13:51gameweek seven. So, a massive
13:53achievement for them. Weirdly for
13:55Seltoviggo, they also had by far their
13:58best performance of their campaign so
14:00far as they won 5-nil at home to Rasing
14:03Santandere, which also weirdly means
14:05that considering they had three draws in
14:07a row before that first win, they're
14:09actually now four games unbeaten in La
14:11Liga. goals from Gonzalez, Moria, Roman,
14:14and then two from Giran to seal it means
14:17that they have now scored more goals in
14:19that one game than they did in their
14:21opening six fictions. And surely that's
14:23a big bill of confidence for them
14:25heading into a side that did struggle to
14:27compete last season. In terms of the
14:29team news, unsurprisingly, Rodondo is
14:31going to be suspended for Elchce, but
14:33Zangare is out with injury as well. Fair
14:36few issues for Celtiggo coming out the
14:38international break as Starfeld and
14:40Casares both picked up injuries during
14:42the course of the international break
14:43and it looks like Roman and Thiago Aspas
14:45have not recovered from their injuries
14:47that they suffered prior to the
14:49international break last season. Both
14:51sides ended up getting the win at home
14:53with the inconsistency of these two
14:55sides prior to the international break.
14:58This really could be anything. You'd
15:00probably say that if Selto are back to
15:02their best, they are the favorites to
15:04take this game. But honestly, I can't
15:06split these two right now cuz they've
15:08been both been so all over the place in
15:10these opening parts of the season. But
15:11I'm just going to go for a high-scoring
15:13draw. And I'm going to go for 2-2
15:15between Elchce and Selta Viggo. Game two
15:19on Sunday is another real intriguing one
15:21as we have Real Sociad taking on
15:23Deportivo Akarunia. eighth versus seven
15:26in the league and the only two teams in
15:28the division that have 10 points from
15:30the opening seven games with Deortivo
15:32just ahead of Sashiad on goal
15:35difference. That being said, it's going
15:36to be the home side that come into this
15:38one with the momentum on their side as
15:40they won 3-2 away to Valencia in
15:42gameweek seven in what was a real back
15:44andforth match. At no point was Sashiad
15:47actually behind in the match though. But
15:48the first two times they went ahead
15:50through Sukic and Sole, they were then
15:53pulled back and then in stoppage time
15:5591st minute of the match, a corner
15:56routine found its way to Bernett Chaya
15:59and he absolutely
16:01smashed it into the near post in the top
16:03corner. It's an absolutely outstanding
16:05finish and it secured them the victory.
16:07But the defending on both goals that
16:09they disinced is very questionable and
16:12realistically either side could have
16:13ended up winning that match in the final
16:1510 minutes. As for Deportivo, it's now
16:18actually three games without a win for
16:20them, but they did get their fourth draw
16:22in seven La Liga matches at home to Real
16:24Betis in gameweek seven. So to be fair,
16:27that's still a pretty damn good result
16:29as far as I'm concerned. But they won't
16:30be happy with the goal that they
16:31conceded in the match as it was some
16:33very sloppy playing out from the back
16:35which gave the ball away allowing rail
16:37betters to go 1 nil ahead. But you've
16:39got to give them credit. They stayed in
16:41the game at 1 nil down. They started
16:43creating more and more chances and then
16:45when everyone got distracted by
16:46Aubameyang the ball found its way to the
16:49back post and there was who flew in at
16:51the back post and marked ahead Deportivo
16:53level. But on the balance of the
16:55chances, it's probably fair to say they
16:57were actually quite unlucky not to win
16:58the match. With both sides on somewhat
17:00decent form, we could be in for another
17:02good game here. In terms of the team
17:05news, it's all about strikers missing
17:07for this game as Oscar, who was so good
17:10for Iceland over the course of the
17:11international break, was actually sent
17:12off late on against Valencia. So, he is
17:15going to be suspended. It's even worse
17:17news for Deportivo though, as top scorer
17:19Aubameyang is going to be out for at
17:20least a month with a meniscus problem.
17:23So he is likely going to miss every
17:24single game until the next international
17:27break. In terms of the head-to-head,
17:28there's been no meeting between these
17:30two sides since 2018, but it should
17:32probably still be noted that Sashiad
17:34have won all of the last three meetings
17:35between these two sides. Personally, I
17:38do think this one is going to be four in
17:39a row, especially with Aubameyang now
17:42out injured for the away side. But don't
17:44rule out Deportivo making it five draws
17:46in eight La Liga matches. I'm going for
17:48Sauciad though and I'm going for a 21
17:51win for them. Penultimate game on Sunday
17:55for you now then and it is Rail Betis
17:57hosting Osuna in what is a battle of
17:59third versus 13th for the home side. All
18:02the real key moments in the game kind of
18:04centered around Cucho Hernandez against
18:06Deportivo because he was the man who got
18:08them ahead after winning the ball back
18:10from a defensive mixup and putting the
18:12ball into the back of the net. But then
18:14in my opinion he was incredibly lucky
18:17not to get sent off for quite literally
18:19kicking a Deportivo player in the head.
18:21It went to V. The V said referee come
18:25and send this player off. The referee
18:27stuck with his onfield decision not to
18:29send him off which I think was a
18:30completely wrong decision. Nevertheless,
18:32even with 11 versus 11, they did then
18:34take a bit of a battering from Depotivo
18:37in the second half. In the final five
18:38minutes of the match, their resistance
18:40run out as they left the Depo midfielder
18:42completely unmarked at the back post and
18:441-1 is how it finished. That does mean
18:46though that they remain unbeaten in
18:48their last four league matches. But it
18:49does also end their threeame winning
18:52streak. As for Rosasuna, they made a
18:54bright start to their game against Rya
18:56Viao as their main man Buddir scored yet
18:59another goal with a brilliant chest up
19:01spin and volley into the top corner of
19:03the net. That unfortunately though was
19:05as good as it got for them as they ended
19:07up failing to create any other
19:08significant moments from that 15th
19:11minute goal and then it was sloppy
19:12playing out from the back that ended up
19:14costing them as Osbella ended up giving
19:16it away allowing Viaano through on goal
19:19to make it 1-1. But even though it was
19:21only a point for them that it did end
19:23their three-game losing streak but all
19:25those things combined does stand to
19:27reason that Raal Bettis are massive
19:29favorites for this match. In terms of
19:31the team news, Mark Bartra is going to
19:33be a doubt for Betis after picking up a
19:34hamstring injury prior to the
19:36international break. All of the
19:38Castillo, Munos, and Morrow are likely
19:40to miss for the away side after all
19:42picking up injuries in the viao game and
19:44are yet to recover. Rail Betis are
19:47unbeaten in the last six meetings home
19:49and away against Osuna and won here last
19:52season as well. No reason not to go for
19:54them to get another victory this season
19:56as well. I'm going for a twomon victory
20:00to rail bettis which takes us to the
20:03final game on Sunday and the penultimate
20:05game of the weekend and it is Rasing
20:06Santandere taking on Valencia 16th
20:09versus 19th in the table and Rasing are
20:12now the side that have the most goals
20:13conceded in La Liga so far this season
20:16and they're going to be taking on the
20:17side that has lost the most games in La
20:20Liga so far this season with both of
20:22those sides really adding to those
20:24tallies in gameweek seven for Rasing
20:26they got absolut absolutely hammered
20:28once again at the hands of Seltoviggo,
20:30conceding five goals in the match
20:32without reply, which actually means they
20:34have conceded 12 goals in their last two
20:37matches after also losing 7-2 to
20:40Barcelona. So really not a good look for
20:42them in that regard, but they do come
20:44into this unbeaten and winning their
20:46last two home games. As for Valencia,
20:49they were unable to back up their first
20:51win of the season in gameweek seven, but
20:52they certainly gave it a hell of a go
20:54against Real Sociad. That being said, at
20:57no point in the game were they in front
20:58as they ended up falling behind on three
21:00separate occasions. To be fair, they
21:02pulled it back level through May and an
21:04own goal when they went 1-0 and 2-1
21:06down. But again, lacks the
21:08concentration. Sloppy defending from a
21:10corner allowed Rail Siad to get their
21:13winner. And unfortunately for Valencia,
21:15it is five defeats from seven La Liga
21:18matches so far this season. In terms of
21:21the team news, no fresh concerns for the
21:23home side, but Valencia have four
21:25potential injuries from the Sociad game
21:27that are yet to recover and those are
21:29Rodriguez, a Torby Roa and Arnell
21:31Danjuma. So, if all of those players are
21:34out, could be a tough ask for them once
21:36again. This is the first meeting between
21:38these two sides since 2012, so we
21:41definitely can't read anything into
21:43those results from so long ago.
21:45Honestly, my best prediction for this
21:47match is goals. Between the two sides,
21:49they have scored 15 and conceded 34 from
21:53their respective seven matches so far
21:55this season. Based on the current home
21:57form versus the current away form, I
22:00think Rasing Santandere are going to
22:01take the victory. But after better
22:03performances from Valencia in the past
22:04few games, maybe they stand a good
22:06chance as well. I'm though going for a
22:0932 win to Rasing Santandere. And then
22:12finally, the Monday night football comes
22:14from Levante as the side currently down
22:15in 17th place in La Liga host a side all
22:18the way up in fifth in Sevilla. Now
22:21don't let the 17th place completely fool
22:23you when it comes to Levante cuz they
22:25are the other half of that rained off
22:27fixtures. They do still have a game in
22:29hand which if they win would actually
22:31put them ninth in terms of points, but
22:33they do still come into this off the
22:35back of back-to-back defeats and they
22:37were completely outmatched against Villa
22:39Royale back in gameweek 7. And that only
22:41sort of real moment of quality in the
22:43match came just seconds after they went
22:461- nil down when Ivan Romero's overhead
22:48kick got them level. But in the second
22:50half, they really didn't get anything
22:52going for them and they ended up getting
22:54slaughtered by Villa Royale. It only
22:55finished by three goals to one. But if
22:57you look at the balance of the chances,
22:59it probably could have ended up being
23:00five or six or potentially even more. So
23:03credit to their defense that it didn't
23:04end up being any worse than it actually
23:06was. As for Sevilla, well, they were
23:09also outmatched in a 3-1 defeat, but
23:11they gave it a hell of a go against
23:13Barcelona in gameweek seven. They
23:15actually went ahead in the match when
23:16Fana got himself in the box and headed
23:19past the Barcelona goalkeeper. But that
23:20just sparked Barcelona into life. And
23:22look, I'm sure that the Sevilla
23:24goalkeeper and defense won't be the last
23:27to fall for Rafini's fake shots this
23:29season, but you know, fool me once and
23:30all that. He did literally score all
23:32three goals by dropping someone to the
23:34floor with a fake shot. So, I don't
23:36think they can be too damn hard with
23:37that because look, they only lost by
23:38three goals to one. Some of these tires
23:40have taken real batterings from
23:41Barcelona this season and they also are
23:43still in fifth place in the table and
23:45they're still second in terms of away
23:47form so far this season. So, they're
23:49going to be very confident that they can
23:50get the victory here. In terms of the
23:52team news, technically there are no
23:54fresh issues for either side, but Marau
23:57did return for Sevilla in a friendly
23:59during the international break which
24:00seemed to then reaggerate his muscular
24:03injury. So he is likely to miss this
24:05game once again. Last season this
24:07fixture was all about Levante. A 3-0
24:10away win in Sevilla and a 2-nil win at
24:13home. After the start that these sides
24:15have made and yes, I'm still taking into
24:17account that Levante have a game in
24:19hand. I still think that Sevilla are the
24:22side that are going to come away with
24:23the victory this time around. They've
24:24played some good football so far this
24:26season. If they can back that up into
24:28part two, I think they should be more
24:30than enough to beat Levante here. I'm
24:32going for a 2-1 win to Sevilla to round
24:35off this weekend. That is going to be it
24:38then for the return of La Liga this
24:40weekend. As always, a massive thank you
24:42very much for watching. Before I leave

24:54win away to bottom side. Malaga very

25:02Bill Bao and 47% viao. An awful lot of
25:05you think that Atletico Madrid are going
25:06to win away at Alves. I think it's the
25:08first time we've seen this this season.
25:11100% of you think Barcelona are going to
25:14beat Hafe. Basically, everyone thinks
25:16Real Madrid are going to beat Villa
25:17Royale. Again, somewhat close to Viggo,
25:20but the majority have gone for
25:21Seltoviggo. The majority think that
25:22Sausad are going to beat Deportivo.
25:24Basically, everyone thinks Real Bettis
25:26are going to be Osuna. The majority
25:27think that Valencia are going to win
