Celta Vigo 0 - 0 Atletico Madrid

Match just and Joseph Aidoo number 15 and Gabriel Veiga number 24 both in CELTA VIGO team has gotten Yellow card, Atletico Madrid is even attacking them (Celta Vigo) more. I am also predicting on this game that Atletico Madrid will win the game with 1-0. The structure or the lineup of Atletico Madrid is nice and they are playing well.

Atletico Madrid's chances of winning this match do look higher, but Celta Vigo also put up some resistance in this first half. In the second half I think Atletico Madrid should improve some of the touches that didn't seem to work in the first half. The coach can refresh their game so that it is tidier and more organized in carrying out attacks from below. Let's see what Atletico Madrid can do in the second half later.

Atletico Madrid was very lucky today. They scored in the 89th minute and won. I wouldn't say that Atletico Madrid performed very well. Celta Vigo is not a very strong team but they performed well enough in this match. However, the match was very important for Atlético Madrid to get 3 points from this match. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for Atletico Madrid to stay in the top four of the points table.

Atletico Madrid are very lucky in today's match. Because after playing the whole match they were not able to score any goals, just then one of the players of the team, Memphis Depay, managed to score a goal in the 89th minute. As a result, Atlético Madrid got a great victory that the team desperately needed.

Otherwise, it would have been difficult for Atletico Madrid to stay in the top four of the points table.

Atletico scored in the minority, played with ten men for almost 20 minutes of the second half, and in the end of the match Depay still scored.
Although as the match progressed, Celta could have scored, Aspas shot just above the crossbar and on 65 minutes the cloud was saved by pulling the ball off the ribbon.

Atletico won on the individual skill of the players, nevertheless the three points are very important for them now.

Even though Betis won 1-2 in the first half, I think Betis' performance has indeed declined this season. Therefore, Betis will no longer be able to compete in the top four in the La Liga standings.

Real Betis is still good but they didn't have a goal to finish the season in the top 4 anyway. Such a goal is unrealistic for them. The top 3 teams are already clear, Barca, Real and Atletico. The important thing is to get the 4th place and the closest team to it is Real Sociedad.
Real Betis is having a good season overall. They were the superior side in today's victory. Despite Almeria's two equalisers, they persistently sought the winning goal and found it. They got an important 3 points.

This match was very interesting. A lot of goals happened in this match. I honestly cannot say that one team was far better compared to the other. I can say that if America had a little better finishing, they actually could have won this match. Because they created good chances and they also took their chances very well to shoot. But better finishing could have seen them give another goal and they very realistically could have walked away with 1 point from this match.

However, Betis was the better team in this match. I think this type of result was expected from this match. But in the end, it was a little closer than what Betis might have expected.

I really appreciate Atletico Madrid's result against Celta Vigo today. Despite getting a red card they still managed to score a goal and win by 1-0.

Stefan Savic got the red card who was a centre-back. This made me think like Celta Vigo could even win the game after this incident. But this is really important for Atletico Madrid. This shows how strong their mental was anyway. Maybe their season is still not going very good but this kind of victories are important for top 4.

I also had the same thoughts as you when an Atletico Madrid player got a red card and gave Celta Vigo a man-manage advantage. But it seems that Atletico Madrid was lucky enough in this match even though they played with 10 people but they were still able to score goals and were the only goals scored in this match to ensure they brought home 3 points. Depay really became a savior for Atletico Madrid.

On the other hand Real Madrid won the Club World Cup so there will be a confidence in the team.

Yep, Because Madrid have just competed in the World Cup final between clubs, their league fixtures will be held on Thursday. Madrid vs. Elche, should be Real Madrid Win. They will be up against a club that I think will definitely be relegated. The victory and the champions in the club's World Cup made them excited. In addition, Benzema's return certainly brings blessings, because they always struggle if Benzema is injured. Rodrygo can't be a good substitute either. The funny thing is, Madrid did not make any new player purchases in the transfer market this time

I would say that if rodrygo was not even suitable for the formation by ancellotti. The win against al hilal has been making real madrid gains its self-confident again. Im sure madrid will be winning against elche easily. I think that 2-0 against elche is enough for madrid. Madrid has been getting its first trophy for this year. Will madrid get another trophy? we will see that.
Madrid always needs benzema as main striker. There's no player in the club who can replace benzema at this moment. Real madrid is always having bad performance once benzema was not playing caused madrid didn't know what should be done as rodrygo was not as good as benzema. that's why there are many suggestions for madrid to buy the new striker that was in the same level as benzema.

Real Madrid is generally a good team. Then they had some poor performances, but Real Madrid managed to bounce back. They managed to win the Club World Cup, which will give the team players great confidence.

Real Madrid is a team that is really going through a good moment, but they must also be thinking about this week's match, the UCL has them very focused on the match, however the fact that they have won the Club World Cup They have set morale very high, and that is good because coming from a championship that they won to a commitment as strong as that of the UCL, knowing that they are the defending champions, that puts them under some pressure, and it is not easy at all. Besides, Real Madrid wants to win the UCL again, Ancelotti is clear about it and he's going to look for it, I'm sure, the players want it too.

Real Madrid prepare for Liverpool with trophy lift – but big new issue exposed

A busy tournament in Morocco, coming after a mid-season World Cup, may not be the ideal preparation for a side who still have two more LaLiga games before the last-16 opener.

But Real will have been boosted by a 5-3 victory over their Saudi opponents to clinch a fifth Club World Cup trophy.

Vinicius Jr was the star, shining from the left flank with a brace, while Federico Valverde also struck twice and Karim Benzema scored on his return from injury.

However, concerns were rightly raised by Real fans as goalkeeper Andriy Lunin – standing in for the injured Thibaut Courtois – struggled.

Apparently Sevilla players can adapt with Jorge Sampaoli strategy now that their game were more better and Sevilla also can wins several times with clean sheet things they couldn't do before and since this year Sevilla has earn 4 winnings and this also makes Sevilla position were bounce back and jumped to 12th i think this is indicated Sevilla position will safe and avoiding relegation zone and about their target i think Sevilla will thinking realistic that their concern now is how to survive in Laliga so this is more important than targetting top 10 or european zone

This is a good thing for Seville.
In the beginning after their loss to Barcelona I thought they would go back down like before but they were wrong. Instead they played really well in this match and 2 goals were totally deserved.
With this win, they immediately pushed into 12th position, leaving their zone which was uncomfortable being near relegation, even though the points weren't necessarily safe for them now.

Villarreal vs Barcelona

I am a bit worried for Barcelona because they lost Busquets which is got injured and he have to rested at least for 2 weeks this could be huge lost because Xavi always be playing him regularly so this might be will effect for Barcelona performance today but regardless this condition Barcelona has 15 times unbeatable in all competitions and they also unbeated at Villarreal home ground since 2007 i think this indicated Barcelona had good chances to continue their positive records from Villarreal today and i wish the replacement of Busquets will performing well today because i just pick to Bacelona win for this match with the odds @1.73

If win/loss or draw streaks had a tendency to continue, then we would probably have seen several such endless streaks already. In fact, I consider Barcelona to be the favorite in this game, but judging by the quotes of the bookmakers, they believe that Barcelona will win with a probability of about 40%. I would like the bookmakers to be right and Barcelona lost points today rather than gained (yes, I support Real Madrid).

The hope may be the same as yours Even though I'm not at Real Madrid as a supporter but with their condition they are far ahead in the end the competition will be even more boring, so it would be great if they don't get points in this match even though it tends to be a bit difficult if you look at the performance.
Villarreal's condition is still not good in this regard especially with their last 2 defeats which makes this a good thing for Barecelona with their great state of confidence.

Villarreal is going to be a real challenge for Barcelona. It looks like one of those games that will end in a shocking draw. If Busquest was the only player missing for Barcelona then it would have not been such a big issue because Frenkie plays that role very well these days. He can be paired with Gavi and Pedri in midfield but the loss of Dembele is a problem. I guess Xavi will start Ansu Fati and play a 4-3-3 formation or start Kessie and play Gavi on the left wing.
I would like to see Fati given the chance to prove himself and win his confidence back.

I do not think so, Villareal is not as good as that anymore. I understand that they had some good seasons but that doesn't change the fact that Villareal is no longer like that, and this season they have been pretty mediocre. On the other hand Barcelona may had some bad seasons but they are leading the league right now and a much better team, definitely miles better than Villareal.

Obviously any team could lose to any team, there is no doubt about that, much lower level teams managed to beat much higher level teams before, so it wouldn't be a shock or uncommon if there was a draw but I believe that Barcelona is on a good momentum that they will beat them for sure.

When Emery was still there maybe this was still possible because he always made a defense that was strong enough for Villarreal when he decided to focus on one of the competitions, but indeed after Emery left Villarreal seemed to have lost that defense until now. The transition is still felt even though the change of coach has been quite long.
On the other hand, they will sink even more if they have to lose for the third time in a row in the last 3 matches they have run.

Indeed, if Villarreal can beat Barcelona, ​​they can make a great history. One of the reasons for this is that Barcelona are currently in an impossibly good performance, even if they lose in this form, there will be nothing to say.

At noon, there was a Getafe - Vallecano match, which ended in a draw. Getafe should definitely have used Enes Ünal in the penalty kick, if they had been given to him, they would have taken three points in this match. Getafe did the worst possible, missed a penalty, then ten left. All luck Vallecano was together, it's very interesting how they didn't actually win. I am glad that Enes Ünal scored for Getafe. He said pray for Turkey and Syria, it was very meaningful after the golden. It was important to raise awareness.

[BRINIRHA]

the Valladolid vs Osasuna match will likely end in a draw. not in accordance with my expectations that expect Osasuna to win in this fight. Valladolid is playing better at the moment. even Real Sociedad had lost the previous match to Valladolid and it seems that Valladolid is starting to find their game. I hope that for the Barcelona vs Villarreal match the results will match my expectations. because I have high hopes for a Barcelona victory.

Real Madrid won the Club World Cup but receiving 3 goals by Saudis was quite unexpected. The defence line including the goalkeeper didn't do their job at the opposite of the good attack line.
That match delayed their participation in La Liga to Wednesday so they will get another match Saturday then by Tuesday they will have to face Liverpool.. Quite intense schedule for Real Madrid..

You're right, this match ended with a draw and there were no scores from both teams. Yes Valladolid is better rather than Osasuna maybe because of playing at home, but after can out of the relegation zone Valladolid got better, as you said Sociedad lost against Valladolid because they of difficulty to getting the score in that match. Lineups is known, also Barcelona with a 4-3-3 formation is expected to be able to win this match, pray the best for them.

It was expectable to be a game with a lot of goals, this is what we all expect at least for a final. So 3 goals were enjoyable to see, second only to the 5 scored by Real Madrid.

Back to La Liga, Madrid will now play against Elche, the last team in the table, so they wouldn't have much trouble winning.

Atletico Madrid's chances of winning this match do look higher, but Celta Vigo also put up some resistance in this first half. In the second half I think Atletico Madrid should improve some of the touches that didn't seem to work in the first half. The coach can refresh their game so that it is tidier and more organized in carrying out attacks from below. Let's see what Atletico Madrid can do in the second half later.

Atletico Madrid was very lucky today. They scored in the 89th minute and won. I wouldn't say that Atletico Madrid performed very well. Celta Vigo is not a very strong team but they performed well enough in this match. However, the match was very important for Atlético Madrid to get 3 points from this match. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for Atletico Madrid to stay in the top four of the points table.

After Savic's red card in the second half I thought it was over but Depay really came to the rescue in this game. His second match went very well for Depay and the look at his celebrations seems to say that he is still very much worth it at the moment.
On the other hand, they also have to thank Oblak in this match.
Several times their goal almost conceded the ball but indeed Oblak's alertness was really good enough in my opinion and even though Atletico won because of Depay but Oblak is MOTM for me.

Yes, this is definitely true, in addition Villareal is not very stable lately, in principle it is visible in the standings, but in January they managed to beat Real Madrid. Not that it is a coincidence, but they really fought well, so we can say that against strong teams they play with a very good attitude and motivation, so in any case, today's match for Barcelona is clearly not a passing one, it is necessary to try

Real Madrid is a team that is really going through a good moment, but they must also be thinking about this week's match, the UCL has them very focused on the match, however the fact that they have won the Club World Cup They have set morale very high, and that is good because coming from a championship that they won to a commitment as strong as that of the UCL, knowing that they are the defending champions, that puts them under some pressure, and it is not easy at all. Besides, Real Madrid wants to win the UCL again, Ancelotti is clear about it and he's going to look for it, I'm sure, the players want it too.

Real Madrid has secured one of the trophies this season and this is the World Cup trophy between clubs after Real Madrid was able to beat Al Hilal in the final match. Karim Benzema contributed 1 goal and Vini 2 and Valverde 2 goals. I see that the spirit of the Real Madrid players will get stronger to look at the next match. Indeed, in their performance this season in La Liga Real Madrid has slightly decreased their performance because in the previous match Real Madrid lost against Mallorca so that the points gap with Barcelona was again far away.

in the Champions league real madrid will face liverpool. even though liverpool is not in good form, liverpool can make it difficult for real madrid to steal victory from them.

Finally, Memphis Depay answered the doubts of the public and Atletico Madrid fans about he still has inconsistent performance by being decisive for Atletico Madrid's victory over Celta Vigo with a score of 0-1. There are not problem for him without get regulation or in starting eleven and coming on for Alvaro Morata in the 60th minute, Memphis Depay scored in the final minutes of the match. Despite Jan Oblak as man of the match with how many great saves but I sure Memphis Depay have good day actually after Atletico Madrid have played with ten players on 60th minutes after their defender Savic got red card.
