La Liga Betting Tips Matchday 34. Five days before the end, there is an increasingly clear trend in the Primera Division title race. Since the restart, Real Madrid has developed from a hunter two points behind FC Barcelona to a hunted man who is now four points ahead of the arch rival from Catalonia, who has drawn three slips in the six games since resumption of play allowed. Moreover, since the direct comparison in Spain, which is decisive in the event of a tie, speaks for Real Madrid, the royal have the best prospects of becoming champions again after 2017 and two titles of Barcas.
Meanwhile, there is tension in the race for the international places, with Atletico Madrid (59 points) and FC Sevilla (57), two favorites for the other two tickets for the Champions League behind Barca and Real have now emerged. FC Villarreal (54) and FC Getafe (52) have not yet been detached, but they also have to look down to at least make the Europa League perfect on their own, as all teams up to Valencia FC are in tenth place still hope for international football next season.
Below, of course, we look above all at the title duel, but also at the struggle for Europe and also graze the relegation battle.

Real Madrid did not burn a playful fireworks display against Getafe FC on Thursday evening, but won 1-0 thanks to a penalty converted by Sergio Ramos. So the balance of the team of coach Zinedine Zidane has been flawless since the restart with six successes. Reals’ biggest asset, however, is not the still prominent offensive, but the back team, which has only allowed two goals in the last six games and is generally the best in the league with just 21 goals.
At Athletic Bilbao, however, real is not an easy task. Traditionally, it is not easy for the top clubs to win in the Basque Country and now there is an unmistakable positive trend in Bilbao. Since the restart, Bilbao has narrowly lost at FC Barcelona (0-1) and has otherwise had three wins and two draws. The two most recent games against RCD Mallorca (3: 1) and at Valencia CF (2: 0) were even won. The success of the direct competitor in Valencia was a big point and fueled the belief in the leap to Europe, whereby the pending final of the Copa del Rey against Real Sociedad San Sebastian is a trump card up its sleeve.
After the last few games, we expect a very close encounter in which Bilbao Real will make life really difficult. However, if the royal defensive is stable again, it can still be enough to win away. Because offensively, the Madrid are always good for a goal.
Betting Tips: win Real Madrid

Against Atletico Madrid (2-2), FC Barcelona did not get past a draw on Tuesday for the third time after the Corona break. The Catalans have lost their previously good starting position against Real Madrid and, regardless of this, left an impression that does not necessarily indicate a successful streak now necessary until the end of the season. Obvious differences between coach Quique Setien on the one hand and parts of the team including superstar Lionel Messi on the other hand also do not contribute to excessive optimism. Meanwhile, there is hope for youngster Riqui Puig, who together with Ansu Fati could ensure that after a long time, talented youngsters play an important role at Barca again. Especially because the core of the team is not getting any younger.
But Barca is still fundamentally capable of everything. The quality of Messi and Co. is simply too high for that. However, FC Villarreal is facing another tricky task, in which three points can certainly not be taken away in passing. Because for the yellow submarine, the corona break apparently came at the right time. After three bankruptcies in a row before the shutdown, Villarreal has recorded 16 out of 18 possible points from six games since the restart and has thus become a serious contender for a place in the Champions League. In five of these six games there was zero at the back, which means Barca has to be prepared not to get too many chances in the 90 minutes.
The trend of both teams supports us in the assumption that it will not be enough for Barca to win in Villarreal either. We don’t commit ourselves to Villarreal’s home success, but we believe at least a partial success of the yellow submarine.

Sevilla FC have been undefeated for a total of twelve competitive games. After a 2-0 derby win against Betis in the first game after the Corona break, it was enough to draw four times in a row, but now it was a clear 3-0 win at CD Leganes during the week. Because the competition in the race for the Champions League weakened significantly, Sevilla was able to increase the lead to fifth despite the many draws from one to three points.
Against the SD Eibar the next threesome should come, whereby the small club from the Basque Country has nothing to give away. Eibar is six points ahead of the relegation zone, but the relegation is not yet certain. However, before the recent 0-2 loss to CA Osasuna, there were eight points from four games, with which one could already get rid of the really big worries. Probably that another win on the last five game days would be sufficient.
In Sevilla, however, Eibar won’t get this threesome. Instead, we assume that the game will end in a home win.
