On March 19, the match of the 26th round of the Spanish La Liga will take place, in which Barcelona will play at home with Real Madrid. The forecast for this match is given by the famous Match TV commentator Konstantin Genich.Barcelona is confidently leading the league ahead of the upcoming El Clasico, coming off by as many as 9 points from Real Madrid.
Thus, the fight for the trophy is almost a foregone conclusion. Even in case of defeat in this match, it is difficult to imagine where the Catalans will still manage to lose the remaining handicap. But for Real Madrid, after all, the championship race is not over yet, so we need to try to achieve victory and make the opponent nervous.
Barcelona, with Xavi, manages to stamp minimal victories with a score of 1:0 with an enviable consistency even for Atletico Madrid. It was with this score in early March that it beat Real Madrid in Madrid in the first match of the 1/2 final of the Spanish Cup. About the meeting at the Santiago Bernabeu, the blue-garnet team simply became defensive after scoring a goal and defended their minimal superiority. Although it is difficult to imagine such a scenario at Camp Nou – the local public simply will not allow "parking the bus" at their own gates.
Real Madrid performed very solidly this week in the second leg of the 1/8 Champions League final with Liverpool, especially in terms of movement, deservedly snatching victory at the end of the meeting. In this meeting, the capital's team will also not sit on the defensive, as it simply does not make sense. Konstantin Genich believes that the best bet for this meeting is the option of exchanging goals. Bookmakers this time offer a very high coefficient for this event, as for "el clasico".
