Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the Spanish La Liga match.
Real Madrid
Real Madrid have used the mistake the Girona made for their own profit, taking the first place after beating Cádiz (3:0). They deserve to be the leaders. They have lost only one game this season – against Atlético (1:3). They have beaten the opponents from the second half of the standings having a two goal lead. The only exceptions are the games versus Celta (1:0) and Sevilla (1:1).
Granada
This is the weakest team of the league in terms of their squad. They can be tough in the home games but they make many mistakes playing in defence in their away games. Only Alamería have conceded more goals in their away games (2,7) than Granada (2,7). Even in the game against Alavés (1:3) that don’t score many goals Granada were losing 0:3 by the 55th minute.
Real - Granada prediction
Real are one of the most dangerous European teams, even having many injured players. They proved it in the game versus Napoli (4:2) in the Champions League. Rodrygo has been performing perfectly well. He has scored 7 goals and made 4 assists in his 7 games in all tournaments. I highly doubt that Granada can surprise us, even considering the tough schedule of Real Madrid.
I guess that the home side will score at least three goals.
