French Cup Preview

PSG will be back in action on Friday evening, as they look to regain the French Cup. The Parisians last won this competition in the 2020-21 season, as they landed their 14th honour. However, they will certainly have questions to answer this weekend, as they were beaten for the first time domestically in their previous fixture. PSG was beaten 3-1 away from home against Lens on New Year’s Day, which saw their unbeaten record in France come to an end. Their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 standings remains a healthy one, but a second straight defeat could lead to questions surrounding the manager. But, the Parisians have been dominant throughout recent history at this stage of the competition. This will be a big moment in the history of Chateauroux, as they welcome PSG to town for the French Cup tie. They currently sit 14th in National, after winning just four of their 16 games this term. Their form over their previous five games has been sketchy to say the least, as they haven’t won over that period. However, they came through the previous round in excellent fashion, as they beat Lege-Cap-Ferret 4-1 away from home. Florian Bianchini, Ferris N’Goma, and Celal Bozkurt were among the scorers in that win. Their best-ever showing in the competition came in 2003-04, as they were beaten in the final by PSG.

Chateauroux vs PSG Head to Head

The only previous competitive meeting between the sides came in the 2004 French Cup final. On that occasion, PSG claimed victory following Pedro Pauleta’s strike with just 25 minutes remaining.

Chateauroux vs PSG Prediction

This should be a testing fixture on the road for PSG, but it remains extremely difficult to see past the reigning French champions. PSG look to be the best bet to win this game, and they could claim a 3-0 win on the road. Make sure to bet on Chateauroux vs PSG with 22Bet!"

Real Madrid have started the new season in excellent form as they look to retain their La Liga title. Espanyol are the hosts for this fixture in the Spanish top-flight this weekend, as they look for a first victory at the third attempt this term.

 

La Liga Preview

Real Madrid have made a fast start to their title defence in Spain, as Carlo Ancelotti looks to bring the La Liga title back to the club. Madrid will need to find a new balance within the squad after losing Casemiro to Manchester United during the summer transfer window, which means a number of the younger players will be given an opportunity to shine.

Real Madrid picked up a second victory to start the new season last weekend, as they easily beat Celta Vigo 4-1 on the road. Karim Benzema opened the scoring from the penalty spot after 14 minutes, before Celta levelled with their own penalty just ten minutes later.

However, Madrid still managed to go into the break with the lead, as Luka Modric found the net. Further goals were added in the second half through Vinicius Jr and Federico Valverde.

Espanyol’s goal this term will likely be to survive in La Liga. However, they come into this fixture still looking for a first victory of the season. They have already allowed four goals in the two games that they have played, which means that they will need to tighten up defensively ahead of the visit of the European champions.

Their first home match of the new season didn’t go to plan, as they were beaten 2-0 by Rayo Vallecano. Both sides lost players to red cards in the opening half, with Sergi Gomez sent off for Espanyol. However, it was Vallecano that responded better to their sending off, as Isi Palazon and Pathe Ciss scored the goals in the win.

Espanyol vs Real Madrid Head to Head

Real Madrid boast an extremely dominant record in this fixture, as they have won 24 of the previous 29 meetings between the sides. During that period, Madrid has averaged 2.5 goals per match, while Espanyol have averaged just 0.4.

Espanyol vs Real Madrid Prediction

It looks hard to bet against Real Madrid maintaining their perfect record in La Liga this weekend. We could see the travelling side securing a 3-1 victory, with Benzema once again getting on the scoresheet.
