La Liga: Moaning against Simeone, Valverde with substitutions (Sunday 1/28/18) Betting preview
Source
Leganes – Espanyol
Leganes: First time in her history at the semi finals of Copa del Rey. Triumph victory against Real (1-2). Before that there was a 2-2 draw against Alaves, in which she made the 2-1 with a fake penalty on 74’ and equalized on 90’. Midfielder Gumbau (10/1) returns, the appearance of Munoz (CB 9/0) and Szymanowski (winger 9/0).
Espanyol: On Thursday night she played with the first squad against Barcelona for the cup. They had won 1-0 in the first leg and of course their full attention was there. In the meantime she tried but couldn’t make it against Sevilla (0-3) for the league. Winger Piati (17/1) and Jurado (16/0) may not make it.
Verdict: Leganes comes from a great win in Bernabeu and Espanyol from a derby in Camp Nou. Bad cross, possible but indifferent under with risk at X(3.0).
Atletico Madrid – Las Palmas
Atletico: Disqualification from the next round of the cup from Sevilla. Two defeats with 5-2 aggregate score. The second one on Tuesday in Andalusia with 3-1. Between them there has been another loss of points against Girona (1-1), game where she once again paid for Simeone’s mistakes. It is probably the first time the Argentinian manager is under so much doubt in Madrid. Small chances for Diego Costa to make it.
** Las Palmas:** There is life in “Las Palmas” planet. Great victory against Valencia (2-1), was lucky in one or two occasions, while she played for almost the whole second half with one more player. Center back Lemos moved to Sassuolo on loan (16/0). Center back Biyas(11/0), midfielder Samber (2/0) and Momo (7/0) are injured.
Verdict: The best possible opponent for Atletico after consecutive failure in league and cup. Las Palmas has Segunda Division material, her defense looks like Swiss cheese and Jemez has probably his mind in the next “final” game against Malaga. 1+over3.5(2.3)
Sevilla – Getafe
Sevilla: Just like someone turned the switch after defeat from Betis. She kicked Atletico out of the next round of the cup with two victories and will face Leganes for the semi-finals. Between the two games against Atletico she also won Espanyol (0-3). Probably extended rotation will take place in the game against Getafe.
Getafe: Two times behind in score, both of them managed to find an answer on the 2-2 against Bilbao. ”One of the best games we have ever made” the words of her manager. In their home they do well, but away they have not won for the last 5 months. Forward Molina(20/5) is grounded and back Suarez is injured.
Verdict: Sevilla has gained momentum and the away Getafe seems like a small obstacle. We told you at our beginning that you will not see tips in sub 1.5 range but we don’t see another result. With more risk there is the X half time/1 final(3.9).
Barcelona – Alaves
Barcelona: On Thursday she won Espanyol for the cup after the loss with 1-0 of the first game. Before that, victory against Betis with 0-5. Extraordinary result, taking into account that until 59’ the score was 0-0! Newcomers are being accounted. Alkazer and Iniesta are back after injury. Mascherano left for China and Rafihnia for Inter. Vermalen and Dembele are out.
Alaves: Disqualification with decent appearance. Won Valencia 2-1 but lost in penalty shootout. Before that, unfair draw against Leganes in a game where she took the lead two times but got equalized in the end.
Verdict: Many asterisks in Barcelona’s squad, it is difficult to estimate whether the score will go high or stay low.
No Bet.
We wish you good luck whatever you may chose.!
