Yes, you can expect goals, but not more than 3½. In 11 home games, Real Madrid only conceded two goals once. Most recently drawing 1-1 against Atletico Madrid, another title contender.
I expect both teams to score, which is offering a -165 price, but as it happened in their last two meetings at Santiago Bernabeu, the total won’t surpass three goals. The last meeting finished 1-1 and the previous one 2-1.
Real Madrid vs Girona Moneyline Pick: Real Madrid (-243)
Girona will put up a good fight, but it won’t be enough to defeat Real Madrid at home, where Los Blancos remain undefeated. Last week, Atletico Madrid scored the equalizer in the 93rd minute. A victory would allow Real Madrid to increase the gap at the top of the standings to five points, which should be enough for them to go all-in right from the start.
Plus, Vinicius Junior is expected to return after missing the derby. And even if he doesn’t play, Arda Guler, Rodrygo Goes, Joselu Mato and Brahim Diaz will be ready, especially Diaz, who’s having a great season.
Real Madrid vs Girona Player Prop Pick: Artem Dovbyk Anytime Goalscorer (+200)
Yes, I expect Real Madrid to win the game, but as mentioned before, I also expect Girona to score. In that regard, Artem Dovbyk as anytime goalscorer is one of the best soccer player props out there at +200 odds. So far, he has scored 14 goals, enough to be the league’s top scorer alongside Jude Bellingham from Real Madrid and Borja Mayoral from Getafe.
