Our prediction: Real Madrid v Barcelona
This is going t0 be a far closer contest than many would’ve tipped a couple of months ago. Barcelona recruited superbly in January and look likely to finish second in La Liga against all the odds at the start of the campaign.
A major benefactor of a solid January is Ousmane Dembele. The frustrating youngster has finally been delivering on his potential with five assists and a goal in his last 320 minutes of football – the equivalent of 3.5 full matches.
Real Madrid won’t crumble, but expect Barcelona to be firmly in the mix here. Expect goals and a tight finish at the Bernabeu with plenty of attacking intent from the visitors.
Our prediction: Real Madrid 2-2 Barcelona (11/1 at bet365).
