Real Madrid equals its best start of the last seasons, with 16 points scored out of 18 possible, a record that Carlo Ancelotti carried out in his first year on the white bench, adding this year the difficulty of having started La Liga with three away games for the works of the Bernabéu. A victory against Mallorca that, in addition to the result, left some sensations that have been transmitted to bettors.
The construction of the stadium made it difficult, or so it seemed, the return of Ancelotti to Real Madrid with the first three days as a visitor. However, except for the tie yielded in the visit to Levante on the second day (3-3), he has signed a full of victories, with comebacks included against Celta and Valencia. According to Betfair forecasts, Madrid’s victory against Villarreal is paid at € 1.46 per euro bet when just before the match against Mallorca it was € 1.6.
An increasingly pro-white trend
Added to the successful outings to Vitoria, 1-4 to Alavés, and Seville, 0-1 against Betis, which leave Real Madrid close to a record, without losing in their last 18 away games, and the placid triumph with rotations in the victory against Mallorca by a 6-1 win, the powerful start of a championship takes shape that also adds to the crisis in Barcelona. The fact that Villarreal wins at the Bernabéu is increasingly registering a higher odds, now it is € 6.5 per euro bet but at the beginning of the week it was € 5.5, a trend that transmits less faith on the part of Betfair bettors.
Villarreal has finally won in the League
Villarreal, for their part, achieved the first victory of the season (4-1) after the five previous draws (four in LaLiga and one in the Champions League) at the expense of an Elche who, despite managing to tie thanks to Mojica, Pino’s initial goal, never could surpass the yellow submarine. For the yellows it is the fifth victory against the people of Elche in seven games in the highest category (2E).
Better than 2013?
In 2013, Madrid started LaLiga with three wins against Betis, Granada and Athletic Club, drew at Villarreal and thrashed Getafe before closing their good start in Elche. In the middle it also made its debut in the Champions League with an exhibition at Galatasaray’s home. At present, Ancelotti is going for similar records.
The Italian coach resumed a streak without losing Zidane that has already increased to 24 games in a row without falling in LaLiga (18 wins and six draws), five from the record. According to Betfair’s forecasts, the most likely score is 2-0 and is paid at € 7.5 per euro wagered on that happening.
