Bet Now!In the championship of Spain, the “Royal Club” traditionally relies on the champion title, but so far loses the competition to Barcelona. According to the results of 25 rounds, Real is second in the table and only two points behind the leader.
“Los Blancos” fell out of the podium due to the last two unsuccessful matches - at first they were unable to outplay Celta on their field, having scored a draw (2: 2) with an opponent, then they completely lost 0: 2 on a Levant away. The fight was also overshadowed by the injury of Eden Hazard, who will miss the Champions League and El Clasico match.
In the Premier League, the fight for the championship by the “Citizens” has been lost for a long time - at the moment they take second place in the table, but Liverpool are inferior to 19 points, while also having more opponents for the match.
In the last round, Manchester City put Leicester in place, which also had second-place views - thanks to Gabriel Jesus's only goal, the match was won.
