The 2022-23 LaLiga Santander season has taken an impressive speed, and the calendar is increasingly compressed as we are on the eve of the World Cup Qatar 2022. As a result, the teams will have to play 6 matches in three weeks, which will help to define what their future will be facing the resumption of LaLiga at the end of December.
That is why every matchday, from now on, will be much more exciting, since the break for more than 1 month due to the World Cup could slow down the pace of competition, especially for those players who will not be part of their national teams or for those who did not qualify.
For now, we have Real Madrid as the only leader of the general classification table, after their victory in the Clasico against FC Barcelona, they continued with an excellent pace of play and beat Elche with a score of 0-3 in the midweek match. They are followed by FC Barcelona, who woke up after two adverse results and took revenge against Villarreal with a 3-0 victory.
–
Real Sociedad continue their spectacular pace and, with their fifth consecutive win, have climbed to third place in the table with 22 points, just 3 behind FC Barcelona. Atlético Madrid and Betis drew in their midweek matches to move into fourth and fifth place with 20 points, respectively.
Athletic continues to add points and, after drawing on matchday 10, they are now in sixth place in the table. Sevilla seems to be showing signs of improvement after Sampaoli became their new coach, and they have taken points for the third consecutive matchday.
Meanwhile, in the ditch of the general classification table, we have Elche, Cádiz, and Girona, who are still in a terrible moment and have been winless for many consecutive weeks.
Now, then, we will have a preview of the best matches that you can enjoy on this matchday 11 of LaLiga Santander.

One of the matches that will kick off this 11th LaLiga Santander matchday will be between Valladolid and Real Sociedad, which will be played this Saturday, October 22, 2022, at the Estadio José Zorrilla, home of Valladolid at 10:15 am ET.
A duel of different goals at the José Zorrilla. Real Valladolid, which is coming off a win over Celta, hosts a surging Real Sociedad, which has already reached third place in LaLiga Santander with five consecutive wins.
Valladolid crushed Celta this past Wednesday in an excellent second half played. Thus, El Pucela has taken air in the ditch of the overall standings, thanks to the great performance of Sergio León, who scored a pair of goals. It is also worth mentioning goalkeeper Masip, who saved two consecutive penalties from Iago Aspas.
With this victory, Valladolid moves away from the relegation zone, specifically to the #11 position, with a record of 3 wins, 2 draws, and 5 defeats.
–
On the other hand, we have Real Sociedad, a team that is on a roll, adding 22 points in the overall standings and linking 5 consecutive wins in LaLiga Santander, thanks to this, they are in third place in the table just 3 behind FC Barcelona. The team coached by Alguacil comes from beating RCD Mallorca at the Reale Arena with a score of 1-0, thanks to Mikel Merino’s goal.
Thus, for now, Real Sociedad occupies a UEFA Champions League qualification spot. Even with the casualties of Mikel Oyarzábal and Sadiq Umar, Real Sociedad is in a great dynamic and comes from away wins against Girona (3-5) and Celta Vigo (1-2).
For this match, our selection is a 1-0 win for Real Sociedad.

One of the best matches that we will have in this 11th round of LaLiga Santander will be, without a doubt, the one between Real Madrid and Sevilla next Saturday, October 22, 2022, at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, home of Real Madrid at 03:00 pm ET.
While it is true that Sevilla is not in its best moment, historically this match has always left us great moments in LaLiga and, we hope that with the new air that is breathed in Seville this match will not be the exception.
Likewise, we have a pretty clear record of the balance that this match may involve. In the last 10 games at the Bernabéu, we have seen 9 Real Madrid wins and 1 draw. The last time Sevilla managed to win in Madrid was in 2008, 14 years ago.
The situation of both teams is quite different. Real Madrid arrives at the top of the category and still does not know the defeat so far this season, it should be noted that this is counting all the competitions in which Los Blancos makes life; it is a very solid team in defense and with a Balon D’or (Karim Benzema) in an attack that materializes the chances that comes to him.
Thanks to this, Real Madrid has a record of 9 wins and 1 draw, which makes them at the top of the standings, 3 points ahead of their closest pursuers, FC Barcelona.
–
On the other hand, Sevilla seems to have improved circumstantially with the arrival of the new coach, the Argentine Jorge Sampaoli. However, the reality is that in the last few rounds they have accumulated 3 draws and only a 1-0 victory in Mallorca.
They are still showing flashes of that irregular team of the Lopetegui era; so, this match could be the trigger for Sevilla to return to compete among the best teams in Spain.
Either way, our selection is a Real Madrid victory with a score of 2-0.
Real Madrid vs. Sevilla Betting Pick: Real Madrid

This weekend, LaLiga has prepared three great games for us. Real Madrid will face Sevilla, Barcelona will face Athletic Club and Betis will host Atlético at the Benito VIllamarín. The latter will undoubtedly be the evenest match of the day and will be played this Sunday, October 23 at 10:15 am ET.
This Sunday’s match in Seville is very important, as Betis aspires to dethrone Atlético Madrid from the fourth place, and of course, to occupy the last spot that would give access to the next edition of the Champions League.
Atleti arrive after skidding on Tuesday at their home stadium, where they could only manage a draw against Rayo Vallecano. It was a blur, as in the last few days their game and their scores had improved, managing to win 3 games in a row.
–
With this draw, Atlético Madrid reaches 6 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats, to occupy the fourth place in the table equal on 20 points with Betis.
On the other hand, Los Verdiblancos returned to score points in the last round, but not in the way they would have liked, as they drew 0-0 against one of the bottom teams of the championship, Cadiz, and this clouded their chances of being better positioned in the overall standings.
For this match, our selection is a 1-1 draw at the Benito Villamarín.
Atlético Madrid vs Betis Betting Pick: Draw.

FC Barcelona’s great midweek victory against Villarreal is already history and, this weekend, it faces the 11th matchday of the season receiving Athletic at the Spotify Camp Nou, another of the teams that are having a good season and that is animating LaLiga Santander.
LaLiga is the big goal for Barcelona since they know that things for the Champions League are more than complicated in every way and need titles after several months full of uncertainty.
Athletic Club will be looking to make up for the last two rounds of LaLiga Santander, which ended with a missed opportunity to win against Getafe and the defeat by the minimum difference against Atlético de Madrid.
Ernesto Valverde’s team arrives with no injuries and the certainty that Iñaki Williams, who was injured against Getafe, will be fit enough to play Sunday’s match.
–
On the other hand, we have FC Barcelona, a team that has shown different faces so far this season, but the one they showed last game against Villarreal is the one that all Culés and soccer fans, in general, want to see. An orderly team, with the ability to manage the ball and with a relentless offense.
FC Barcelona had 3 fundamental pillars for their victory against Villarreal, Pedri, Frankie de Jong, and Lewandowski, between the 3 of them they made disasters with the rival defense and achieved an excellent 3-0 victory.
For this match, we believe that FC Barcelona will continue on the path of victory and our selection is a 4-1 victory.
Athletic vs. FC Barcelona Betting Pick: FC Barcelona
