Real Madrid vs Barcelona Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in Pre-season Friendly on Saturday, 29 July 2023.
After reinforcing their midfield, Real Madrid are preparing themselves for a great season. And the rumours of Kylian Mbappe finally making a switch to the Los Blancos are only hyping up for what’s waiting for the 14-time European champions.
Meanwhile, arch-rivals Barcelona did manage to secure the La Liga the last time around. But they need to make a deep run in the Champions League this time for sure. It has been quite some time since they were able to hold aloft the ‘Big Ears’.
The latest encounter between the two teams ended in a one-sided victory for Carlo Ancelotti’s men. They registered a 0-4 win against the Catalans, and that too at the Nou Camp. After a series of good performances by Barcelona, this was such a shock win for Real Madrid.
As a matter of fact, the three preceding match-ups were won by the Catalans.
Not only did Xavi’s men lose their latest game, which was against Arsenal, but in the process they let in five goals as well. And with arch-rivals Los Blancos coming up next, it goes without saying that confidence level is not too high for the five-time European champions.
Going on, Real Madrid are on a roll at the moment. They managed to register wins against AC Milan and Manchester United back-to-back, and will hope for a third in a row this Saturday, against their oldest and fiercest rivals.
Based on recent form, and quite frankly, the disparity in talent, Real Madrid are firm favourites here.
Barcelona lost the latest h2h meeting in such an embarrassing fashion, conceding four unanswered goals – that too at the Nou Camp. And to make matters worse, they lost their latest game in the pre-season, against Arsenal, conceding five goals.
On the other hand, Real Madrid are on fire. They registered back-to-back wins against Manchester United, and AC Milan – slotting five goals in the process. And the rumours of Kylian Mbappe joining them finally are only adding on to their confidence level.
A win for Real Madrid is the safe bet to make here, at 2.20 odd.
Going on, goals have always come in plenty between these two teams over the years. And the two squads are also on a great goal-scoring run at present.
The Over 3.5 Match Goals wager looks promising at 2.20 odd.
