Will Barca get their revenge?
As expected, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid will face each other in the final of the Spanish Supercopa, which will be played in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. In one of the most prestigious duels that world soccer has to offer, there is a lot at stake, especially for the Catalans. In the last “Clásico,” Hansi Flick’s team lost 1-2 and had to let the White Ballet pull away at the top of the table.
Since then, however, the two teams have developed very differently. While Los Blancos have stumbled somewhat and dropped points on several occasions, the reigning Spanish champions have clearly used the defeat against their archrivals as extra motivation. Since the game at the Bernabéu on October 26, Hansi Flick’s team has won every single game in domestic competition and has now regained the top spot in the table.
Considering the current form of both teams, the chances are good that the Catalans will be able to avenge their defeat in the fall. It therefore makes sense to place a bet on Barca in Barcelona vs. Real Madrid. The best odds for this can be found in the Bet-at-home app.
The road to the Supercopa final has been very different for the two finalists. Blaugrana stormed into the final with a convincing 5-0 win over Athletic Club from Bilbao. In addition to a brace from Raphinha, Ferran Torres, Fermin Lopez, and Bardghji also scored. The White Ballet, on the other hand, scraped through to the final with a narrow 2-1 win over city rivals Atletico. The fact that this victory was very fortunate can also be seen in the “expected goals” values. Here, the final score was 2.26:1.15 in favor of the “Colchoneros.”
In addition to betting on the result, it is always a good idea to place a goal bet on games involving Hansi Flick’s team. Barca has by far the best offense in Spain. Hansi Flick’s team has scored 53 goals in 19 league games, and Raphinha and Co. also proved their accuracy in the Supercopa with a 5-0 win over Bilbao.
A look at the last direct duels with Los Blancos also suggests betting on lots of goals. In six of the last eight encounters, four or more goals have been scored. In Barcelona vs. Real Madrid, a bet on “over 3.5” would therefore be attractive.
Barcelona – Real Madrid Head-to-head comparison / H2H record
In recent head-to-head matches, the Blaugrana have clearly had the upper hand. With the exception of the last encounter in October, the Catalans have won each of the last six matches against their archrivals. Hansi Flick’s men also prevailed 5-2 in the last Supercopa clash.
Barcelona – Real Madrid Tip
The Supercopa final is about more than just the first title of the calendar year. The Catalans are looking to avenge their 2-1 defeat in the last Clásico, which was also their last defeat in a domestic competition. The current form of both teams clearly favors Hansi Flick’s side.
In Barcelona vs. Real Madrid, a bet on many goals is also worth considering at good odds. In games involving Barca, fewer than 3.5 goals are almost a rarity.
