So Clasico's confirmed, although it won't be the grand finale for Copa del Rey, I think a semifinal meet is just as good. Real will have gone off meeting Liverpool first so this game's in between the Last 16 legs... not sure if it's a good thing at all, but I suppose only worth placing bets after the Liverpool result.

Great chance for Osasuna/Athletic to get their hands on a trophy, though!

I know you don't want to hear it but I don't think any of the clubs are actually afraid playing against Liverpool at the moment. In fact this is the best time to play them in last couple of years since attack is missing chances while defense is almost criminal.

Barca should have an advantage in Copa del Rey, but as usual I will probably skip over ML and go for both to score. Always good when these 2 meet, except in Mourinho era.

Villarreal playing at the moment and having the initiative but not able to score just yet. Should be their game for the taking in second half.

Well another round goes and im still in the bottom of the chart.

I really dont know why and how im doing so bad this year/season in this pool and also in Serie A, all my hopes go to the EPL pool.

I think my sittuation here is like the Sevilla one , the past year fighting for top spots and this one fighting in relegation zone.

Villarreal surprisingly lost to Rayo and nobody from us haven't saw this outcome. Don't forget that we have 2 more games this week, Barca and Real will play their rescheduled games on Wednesday and Thursday.
In other news, Valencia sacked Gatusso. Nothing surprising, but for me even appointing him looked questionable decision. But probably nothing shouldn't surprise us from Valencia, after they had Garry Neville as their manager.

Well, we will have 2 more guaranteed El Clasico games, rather than one in the final. Offcourse, it would be better to get Osasuna or Athletic, but I don't think that current Barca fears of Real. It's sad that Dembele who played amazing recently will have to miss first semifinal game.
For Osasuna or Athletic, it's good chance indeed. It's more likely to beat Real or Barca in single game than in two legs of semifinals.
BTW, agree with Trofo, current Liverpool is just a shadow of that great team in past seasons.

Including me, in betting. This was my last won freebet from Sportsbet, I chose Villareal without learning my lesson, thinking my luck would remain the same after Barca took victory from Girona. Chukwueze seems to be the best player without producing any goals, but I think we should blame Setien for this one, as he was praising Rayo before the game, saying they were one of his favorite teams lol, while Villareal winning the way they were for several games gave them lots of confidence.

"Nice" fixtures next. Rayo go to Almeria, Villareal go to Elche...

But can't blame them alone, I missed even bigger "easier" wins in basketball.

I don't but I hear it. It's been a while since I had to concede to our poor form but it had to come sooner or later. As I'd said even several ties we had, if I weren't Liverpool, I'd be betting against them regularly. Brighton odds were not even 27/01 on the last game -- that's an accurate assessment.

I'll take Barca ML tentatively but yeah need to see how they both do in UCL and Europa.

Yeah, Dembele sad, for me Ansu Fati also seems to not be hitting his peak, he's been long my Barca favourite (not that I follow much).

Totally taking Osasuna/Athletic in the final though!

yeah, back to Voro again, maybe he will have more matches this time as interim, not sure that there is anyone on sight as new coach
one point above relegation zone is really low point

and for a start could not be worse, playing Real in Madrid, interesting though, both delayed matches are replies from Super Cup semi-finals

Always thought guys like Gatusso are great leaders on the pitch but his bulldog style is maybe not so suitable for bigger teams. Of course you never really know with managers, players, clubs, sometimes it's all about the chemistry. Simeone would never make it at most other clubs I think.

I feel like Valencia could become good bets at this point forward?

not so sure, Voro is a solution that is always available for interim (speaks about his potential, he cannot get position in other clubs )
but we will see tonight, Real has an easy win on their hand, even odds are welcoming on them

Barca is already on +8 after win over Betis last night, so Real has to win as well, and Valencia will need to pursue chances against rivals from bottom part and secure La Liga for next season

I have actually watched whole Barca match yesterday, probably first time this season since I always just get glimpses and they don't really show you everything.

Anyway I really like what Xavi is doing, this Barca looks much more direct and vertical then Barca of old. They are also good in getting the ball high up the pitch when lost which helps a lot.

Yeah, reminds me I haven't seen them in a stretch either but I really thought they are back to being pleasant to watch, even when they're punting the ball up for Lewie, they've gotten more aggressive at battling for possession in air (Pedri and Gavi even with their height!).

 I didn't watch the game without Torres or Lewandowski (against Girona) so I didn't see how they played with Fati (who's always better on the wing I think) but with the proper squad, it does look entertaining.

Definitely have to make time for next Clasico, though probably less important is the Copa one -- be awesome if they're still this close in standings come 19 March.

This championship should be on Barca to loose. They aren't playing in Champions League so they can even rotate much more than Real and they already have an advantage. If that isn't enough they look better on pitch as well. It can all change in the game like Clasico though but Barca has one hand on the trophy already.

Bilbao with big win today. Did not expect a game with so many goals, I guess it will be a bunch of pointers in the pool.

Anyway guys I have some good news. Some of you were involved in World Cup competition Sporsbet sponsored so you know what to expect and I am happy to inform that we have agreed to lunch its big brother. All the details coming over the weekend. Be sure to join, places will be limited and this one will be big

World Cup competition you mean like with quizzes and H2H with fellow bastards? I love that! Consider me joining, I don't mind a big fee (well not so big but I think I remember in the feedback I was willing to pay a bigger amount even than in pool) especially since I seem to waste all my weekly earnings back into the casino again lol, might as well play La Liga long term contest and see if I do better than in Superbru.

We have to try and get new players in from Premier League and Champions League pools also!

And one day finally Elche win in LaLiga, and was a really good win against Villarreal, but the sad part its when you look the table and see them so far from the next team to catch up.

Well trofo so we are gonna wait for this news, i hope i can do better this time, but as always you need a bit of luck to progress like always.

Elche situation is just what latin refers to as "mortuum flagellas", that is; flogging a dead man! I don't see them surviving the relegation battle by any means, but a few wins is actually good for the mental health and ego of the players, they're up against Real Madrid in their next fixture, we can all agree that's just about another high hill to climb for them. Real Madrid lost their game against Mallorca, and would be looking to bounce back against the worse team in the league, or could as well forget about any chance of defending their title.

[famososMuertos]

Due to the feeling that I feel with Madrid in the League, rarely with a team like Mallorca will I put him to lose, he will not repeat himself in the short term, but I was so sure that even, a little helped me the RM. 

"Barcelona's comment on his Twitter account "

An emoji that should have been saved, but in times when a period, a comma and parentheses cause that take precedence over the reality that is above the defeat of RM, it will bring much "caña".

[buwaytress]

Few things in football are worse than making all the attacks, getting so many players carded and potentially injured, missing a penalty, and still losing the game... to an own goal.

Wasted my time watching Forest-Leeds, so frustrating, should have gone for this game instead, but you know, who normally wants to watch Mallorca right?

Slam you must be counting your money tonight?

Hey! Hello! What about your thread? I haven't seen the updates for a long time, but judging by how the leaders are falling, it's you who should count the money 

On the one hand, it seems that Real have already lost La Liga, on the other hand, the statistics are encouraging. We need to see the results of the second head-to-head meeting and see how Barcelona will cope with the downturn.

[LTU_btc]

Typical game of Barcelona, it's completely one-sided, but again they struggle to make something dangerous. But as Xavi said, at this time of season with intensive calendar getting 3 points is most important thing, rather than trying to score as many goals possible. So, we can expect another game with 1:0 score, but so far in 2nd half Barca struggle.

And one day finally Elche win in LaLiga, and was a really good win against Villarreal, but the sad part its when you look the table and see them so far from the next team to catch up.

Elche win had to happen sooner or later, but it wasn't easy to expect that they will do it against Villarreal. But it was deserved.
Probably worst round in betting for me. Backed Villarreal, Betis and Real Sociedad. BTW, wtf Betis 3:4 Celta, that's crazy.
I don't even talk about Real loss, but my money wasn't there and it's great result for Barca. Atletico draw with Getafe probably is least surprising thing last round.
