At midnight of 17th August the second match of the Spanish Super Cup between Real Madrid and Barcelona will start. The encounter will take place at the Royals field, the first match of the confrontation, which was on Barcelona’s pitchб brought the Catalonians disappointment and a 1:3 loss. The two-goal handicap will be very hard to recoup from the opponentі, wherein bookmakers reckon, that the future opponents have approximately equal chances on a victory in the upcoming game.
The set action line on Real and Barca is approximately equal because basically Real do not even need to defeat the opponents to win the Spanish Super Cup. Even a minimal loss or draw will suffice for the Royals, but it is hard to believe, that Real will play their first official domestic match to retain the score and will probably put maximum effort to defeat their competitors once again.
Barcelona looked very decently at the preseason camp, defeated Juventus, Manchester United and Real Madrid, but when it came to an official match against Blancos, it was immediately clear, that Neymar’s loss may cost very much for the Catalonians. Real managed to score thrice in ter Stegen’s net, while only Messi became a goal author for Barcelona.
Real always play only for a victory at their home ground and the upcoming game for the Spanish Super Cup will hardly become an exception. A bet on Real not to lose looks very promising in the couple. Barcelona aren’t in their best shape right now and the Royals will take advantage of that.
Prediction for the match: Real Madrid not to lose
