The second half of the LaLiga EA Sports season is on fire, as the fight in all areas of the standings is getting better and better.
Real Madrid and Girona are still in a pitched battle for the top of the table, and everything seems to indicate that the Champion will be between these two teams. However, we cannot rule out that Barcelona, Atleti, or even Athletic could reach the end of the season with options to fight for the championship. That is how fair the table is in the upper zone, so each match becomes much more important than the other.
In the middle zone, we also have a very nice fight, in which Rayo, Osasuna, Alavés, Mallorca, and Villarreal are trying to stay away from the relegation zone, and every game is essential to consolidate their position in the middle of the table.
Finally, in the lower zone, we have Cadiz, Sevilla, and Celta de Vigo fighting to escape from the relegation zone. Meanwhile, Almería continues to surprise negatively by being the only team in the five major European soccer leagues that does not know what a victory is.
Now, in this 21st round of LaLiga EA Sports, we will have the match between two opposite poles of the table, Real Madrid and Almería.

Why Bet on Real Madrid?
Real Madrid are highly motivated, full of confidence, and ready for action on matchday 21 after defeating FC Barcelona 4-1 last Sunday to win the Spanish Super Cup. However, ‘Los Merengues’ derailed in the Copa del Rey against Atlético yesterday (4-2), probably due to tiredness. In the league, they have three wins in a row.
Madrid is now second in the standings with a fantastic record of 15 wins, three draws and one loss. They have also scored an incredible 40 goals and conceded only 11. ‘Los Blancos’ have a game in hand and, if all goes according to plan, should lead the table after that game.
With Vinicius, Rodrygo, and Bellingham in top form, Real Madrid hopes to maintain their position at the top of the standings by taking advantage of Barça and Atleti’s complicated seasons.
Why Bet on Almería?
On the contrary, there is no denying that UD Almeria is the poorest team of this 2023/24 LaLiga EA Sports season.
This squad is falling further down the standings every day because they have not been able to win a single match this season. Their record is six draws and fourteen defeats, so they will already be shuffling their options for promotion next year.
Despite not being the team that has scored the fewest goals so far (19), UD has, as expected, the worst goal difference in the league. Defensively, they have been a complete disaster with 43 goals in 20 games.
In reality, Almería will need a miracle to start winning and escape the relegation zone. Unión Deportiva’s last match ended in a goalless draw against Girona, an incredibly surprising result, considering the current level of the Catalans.
