This season is different, Barcelona has draw 2 games and lose 3 and Real Madrid has lose 2 and draw 2 games while Atletico Madrid has lose only 1 and draw 5, they bank on their draw and that's why their team and the rest of the teams behind are following them bumper to bumper. I think that it's impossible to say Atletico or any other teams has the power to take out Real Madrid and Barcelona, this season is between them unless maybe something really really bad stop them from winning.

The conditions are sometimes always unexpected because even looking at the actual performance Atletico is also in a positive condition especially in the last 9 matches in all competitions they have never lost so when meeting big clubs like Madrid and Barcelona they have a chance now.

Although in terms of probability it is definitely smaller but in the end all possibilities can still happen. Simeone made some new experiments and the scheme worked where their goal productivity increased in the last few matches even though their defense seemed easy to penetrate but it can still be minimized with excellent goal productivity.
The third week of this month Atletico will travel to Camp Nou and if Atletico's performance is still like this then I think the chance of 3 points can still be obtained.

I think Lewandowski is performing very well this year. He's been doing great so far. If he continues like this, he'll have a statistic of over 30 goals by the end of the year. He's already scored 16 goals. He's a very important player for Barcelona. I think his performance will continue to increase until the end of the year. The Polish striker is very successful and has a great performance. I think he can easily wear Barcelona for another year.

He is doing good overall but his team is failing and risking to lose the first spot which proves that collective works is more important than having a couple of stars. That's said at the time where Real Madrid is struggling with injuries that destabilised the team.
At the same time, there is Raphinha following Lewandowski by 11 goals, so 5 goals less than him. These two players from Barcelona scored as much as the three following top scorers, Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Budimir from Osasuna.

[Leviathan.007]

Ancelotti is not ready to bench Mbappe so that Arda gets a chance to play, but now that Vinicius is injured he will have a chance to show that he deserves to get more playing time, yesterday he played a good match and scored a goal. Mbappe also scored a goal yesterday, on the one hand I understand those who say that he is not always good, for some reason this happens in important matches, but on the other hand he scores consistently, so he is also important for the team.

At a critical time, Arda Guller was needed by the club to fill the void of players who were left, especially in last night's match, Rodrygo was crossed out by Real Madrid because according to the news I read, Rodrygo had problems with his leg muscles so the club did not want to force this player even though Rodrygo was the only player who could be relied on if Vinicius was not there, but fortunately this time Jude Bellingham, Mbappe and Arda Guller were able to work together well in this match, each scoring 1 goal to give victory to their club.

That's true about Rodrygo. He is a good player for Real Madrid and usually performs well on this team. The problem with Rodrygo is that this Brazilian young player was mostly injured. He also got injured in the game against Osasuna. So far this season, this player has been injured three times, which is a lot.
He scored a goal against Alavés in September but after that, he didn't score any goals and didn't make any assists for his teammates.
Rodrygo was never injured during the last season but in this season he got injured three times.

At the same time, there is Raphinha following Lewandowski by 11 goals, so 5 goals less than him. These two players from Barcelona scored as much as the three following top scorers, Mbappe, Vinicius Junior and Budimir from Osasuna.

It depends whether he remains without injuries, but his physical level seems to be solid enough and might give him a few more years. He is getting older of course, but as long as the numbers are what they are, his contractual situation still looks pretty well. I don't think that Saudi Arabia is an option for him yet and he would definitely want to win the Champions League one more time.

Before the season got started, I didn't think that Barcelona would be in a position to count towards the circle of favorites. But now with so many players in great shape and the other teams not being as strong as they used to be (Manchester Cit for instance), I think Lewandowksi knows that this year is the one year that gives them a reasonable chance to reach the final.

If Barcelona continues to lose surprising points, they will only dream of winning the championship.

The match ended in a home win as Getafe maintained their one goal lead from first half. It is not a surprising result to me because I knew they had the advantage and they used it very well. Although they are not yet out of the possibility of relegation as the gap between them and the teams in the relegation zone is just small, recently they have improved so much. Besides, they hardly lose their home matches except on one occasion that they lost to Girona, at worst they got was a draw. The best option would have been to play they double chance of win or draw.

The goal-scoring rate has indeed increased significantly for Lewandowski and indeed so far we have seen Barcelona's front line has looked quite solid but this is not just about individual achievement because Lewandowski must be able to lead Barcelona to compete for the title this season.
The job can be said to be difficult and if they cannot take advantage of the existing conditions then when Real Madrid players recover from their injuries, it will make it difficult for Barcelona to chase the trophy.
Now only two points away and Real Madrid still have one game left that they have not played so the opportunity to catch Barcelona is wide open.
If they miss some good moments then it will make Barcelona lose the chance to win La Liga because Real Madrid will definitely take their position.

If Barcelona continues to lose surprising points, they will only dream of winning the championship.

Getafe were ultimately able to maintain their narrow victory until the end. 1 goal in the 8th minute by Alvaro Rodriguez was actually the only goal in this match which successfully brought Getafe to full points. With this result Getafe was able to keep their distance from the relegation zone. Meanwhile, Espanyol must be willing to remain in the relegation zone.

In the following week, Getafe has a tough opponent, namely Atletico Madrid, and I think Getafe will lose points in the next match. Meanwhile, Espanyol will face Osasuna. And yes, Osasuna is also a strong team this season. Because currently Osasuna is ranked 7th and that is proof that Osasuna will indeed be a tough opponent. And I think Espanyol will also suffer another defeat.

The competition will basically be different every season and that is because each team has increased the depth of its squad. Changes in coaches and playing schemes also affect the performance of each team, so of course there is nothing wrong with these changes. Barcelona have improved this season in La Liga, while Real Madrid have fallen, but this is an unfinished season as there is still a lot of drama to come between these teams.

We also must not forget Atletico who have managed to collect 35 points, they just achieved a dramatic victory over Sevilla after previously being 1-3 behind. They showed a steely mentality and refused to give up until the final minute, Atletico has the opportunity to match the points collected by Barcelona if they succeed in winning the 17th game. The season is not over yet, there are still surprises that can happen in the next match that can change their position in the standings.
It's interesting to see this kind of competition.

[tusandii]

Atletico Madrid managed to achieve a dramatic victory over Sevilla, with one match left to play, in the future they have the opportunity to match Barcelona points. Likewise with Real Madrid, so it is clear that Barcelona is under serious pressure to maintain its position at the top of the standings. In addition, the consistency shown by Atletic Bilbao is also impressive, and in my opinion the four teams currently occupying the Champions League zone will continue to compete tightly until the end of the season. Atualy, the top four positions look very competitive because of the unstable performance of Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Yes, I think this victory was indeed deserved by Atletico Madrid even though they conceded many goals but in the extra time they were able to create the last goal to determine the victory but I was a little impressed with the attacks carried out by Sevilla they only made a few shots and 3 of them were on target and all of them were converted into goals they really made it difficult for Atletico Madrid even though the final result was they lost. In my opinion the competition between the top 4 clubs at this time is no different from previous seasons they did compete tightly in the title hunt.

This is actually going to be fascinating going forward, because by looking at the current league standings, it shows that these three teams are all in for the fight for the league, and they all knows that any slip up will be punished dearly, so just as you rightfully said, if real madrid and atletico madrid win their match respectively it will just be a point that would separate real madrid from Barcelona and atletico madrid.
So in my own opinion, I think that the most consistent team among them will eventually win this one here because consistency is very much key in the race for the league title.

And lastly, another defining moments is how they are actually going to fare when they play each other, that's what might decide the title race if things stay like this till the final days of the title race.

The league table shows that Barcelona have very high risk of losing the first position because only one more bad match, bad result without 3 points, then they can lose that first position to either Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid. This risk does not count one more match for both Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. Barcelona must play their next matches with their self-pressure of winning like a must, because they have to assume that they will lose the first position when Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid win their postponed and rescheduled matches.

If Barcelona won't play carefully, they will come to a match day when they suddenly fall behind Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid with like 4 or 5 points, it will be a shock for them, but they can imagine that scenario to play better from now.

In my opinion the competition between the top 4 clubs at this time is no different from previous seasons they did compete tightly in the title hunt.

In the last five wins Atletico Madrid has made them confident to continue to tighten the competition for the LaLiga title this season, it doesn't matter with the many goals conceded at least it can make a change in the standings at least getting positive results is something Atletico Madrid must do, Atletico Madrid seems not to want to lose at their home even though the opponent they face Sevilla is far above paper but the resistance given by Sevilla really troubles Atletico Madrid I really agree with what you said, in my opinion there is a difference in the top 4 positions this season, the loss of Girona makes a difference and that difference is in Atletic Bilbao who performed well this season and are in the top 4 of La Liga is much better than last season.

That's true about Rodrygo. He is a good player for Real Madrid and usually performs well on this team. The problem with Rodrygo is that this Brazilian young player was mostly injured. He also got injured in the game against Osasuna. So far this season, this player has been injured three times, which is a lot.

Rodrygo was never injured during the last season but in this season he got injured three times.

Rodrygo performance is decline because from 13 Laliga matches Rodrygo only able to scores 3 goals but i have no wonder because this season he was several times to got injury and indeed since joining with Real Madrid on 2019/2020 Rodrygo was rare to gets the injury unless this season but Ancelotti was happy because confirmed Rodrygo will be available when Real Madrid will fight against Atalanta on Champion league and i think this is good news because Rodrygo is important player for Real Madrid however if this news is true we will see again Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo will playing together against Atalanta because i heard too Vinicius is fully recover

Getafe won their home match again after previously winning their home match against Valladolid. This was a good win for them, because they managed to move away from the relegation zone. Unlike Espanyol, because they lost, they're in the relegation zone. Luckily, Espanyol still have 1 match deficit that could get them out of the relegation zone. Overall this match was not very interesting, because there were not many goals scored, hell for those who bet on many goals.

[MArsland]

Rodrygo performance is decline because from 13 Laliga matches Rodrygo only able to scores 3 goals but i have no wonder because this season he was several times to got injury and indeed since joining with Real Madrid on 2019/2020 Rodrygo was rare to gets the injury unless this season but Ancelotti was happy because confirmed Rodrygo will be available when Real Madrid will fight against Atalanta on Champion league and i think this is good news because Rodrygo is important player for Real Madrid however if this news is true we will see again Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo will playing together against Atalanta because i heard too Vinicius is fully recover

Vinicius will be available against Atalanta, he has recovered and started training. This is good news because Madrid needs a balancer, for now I prefer Ancelotti to give Arda Guler a chance to continue playing, maybe he can share time with Rodrygo. Arda can be very useful if given enough playing time. Let's see if the return of the trio of Mbappe, Vinicius and Rodrygo can play more solidly.

As you said in this match, Getafe was able to win the match even with a narrow score of 1-0. In the first half Getafe succeeded in pressing the Espanyol defense area well, so with this I thought that in the second half Getafe would be able to score another additional goal. But it turned out that in the second half Espanyol slowly started to be able to read the strategy used by Getafe. So with this, things turned around a bit, Espanyol was able to dominate the game quite well. But unfortunately Espanyol was unable to take advantage of the opportunities that existed, so that until the whistle sounded to signal the end of the match Espanyol were unable to equalize.

So with Espanyol's defeat in this match, Getafe managed to avoid the relegation zone and is currently ranked 15th. Meanwhile, Espanyol is currently in the relegation zone or more precisely in 18th place in Laliga. I think the competition at the bottom of Laliga is still quite tight at the moment, so in the next few weeks I think it will continue to change. Therefore, Espanyol also still has quite high hopes of getting out of the relegation zone.

And talking about Barcelona and Real Madrid, these two teams will indeed compete again fiercely from now on. Considering that the difference in points between these two teams is not that far. So for now, many people are again favoring Real Madrid to become champions in Laliga. But I think that is a premature assumption. Because Barcelona could return to its best performance and maintain its current position at the top of the Laliga standings.

Before the end of the year, we are going to have a Barcelona - Atletico Madrid game by the way. It would be really lovely to watch this one during this amazing title competition.    

The odds given by bookmakers are like 1.63 for Barcelona win while it is 5.40 for Atletico Madrid. It is hell of a gap though but I don't think the game will be that easy for Barcelona. Because Atletico Madrid aren't joking these days. It is an incredible form. This game would be an opportunity for Real Madrid too of course. Let's wait and see, there are still 11 days to go. Simeone vs Flick... It is going to be so much fun.

Rodrygo performance is decline because from 13 Laliga matches Rodrygo only able to scores 3 goals but i have no wonder because this season he was several times to got injury and indeed since joining with Real Madrid on 2019/2020 Rodrygo was rare to gets the injury unless this season but Ancelotti was happy because confirmed Rodrygo will be available when Real Madrid will fight against Atalanta on Champion league and i think this is good news because Rodrygo is important player for Real Madrid however if this news is true we will see again Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo will playing together against Atalanta because i heard too Vinicius is fully recover

Vinicius will be available against Atalanta, he has recovered and started training. This is good news because Madrid needs a balancer, for now I prefer Ancelotti to give Arda Guler a chance to continue playing, maybe he can share time with Rodrygo. Arda can be very useful if given enough playing time. Let's see if the return of the trio of Mbappe, Vinicius and Rodrygo can play more solidly.

The attacking force of Madrid will be very strong and sharp now that Vini is back from injury. However, nobody knows if he is fully fit to be in his best performance after staying for sometime without playing. How I wish that the strength of both clubs would be equal so that the match will be more interesting. Atalanta performance is far better than that of Madrid, and I don't expect any magic in this match even with the return of Vini.

Standings position is still very important, Barcelona finally failed to win, they should have won but there was mistake that allowed Real Betis to score second goal to equalize, now Real Madrid has great opportunity to take over the top position of the standings because they are only 2 points apart.
For the front position in Barcelona attack line, I see it has started to improve and is back to being productive with really sharp attack, but the problem is that Barcelona has less than optimal defense because Real Betis game also prioritizes their attack line in the match.
If you really take Barcelona as the favorite to win the match then it is losing bet.

The draw achieved by Barcelona made their points not make the gap wider, now they only have a 2 point advantage over Real Madrid. However, Real Madrid still has 1 match left which if they win it will shift their position to Barcelona. There is a problem faced by Barcelona at this time, from the last 5 matches they have only been able to win 1 match, 2 losses and 2 draws. That's what finally made them increasingly approached by the teams below them, precisely 2 competitors who are always in La Liga, namely Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

Maybe we will still see Real Madrid winning the La Liga title, slowly Real Madrid is starting to play better and with the use of the upcoming transfer window which will soon open, it could make it easier for Ancelotti to bring Real Madrid to the top and defend the title.
Even if Atletico Madrid can continue to play stably and more consistently then they also have chance to surpass Barcelona, ​​I sure Atletico Madrid will not be able to win the title this season but they are dangerous and can make it difficult for anyone who wants to compete for the title, at least Atletico Madrid will be competitor that makes La Liga more competitive.
