The new La Liga year kicks off Friday, August 16 when Athletic Bilbao entertain Barcelona — kick-off in 3:00 pm EST..
Its predicted to be yet another race at the top of the table between Barcelona and Real Madrid, and Lionel Messi is sure to be among the leagues top goalscorers. But some over/under props that were intriguing have opened up for some of the leagues main protagonists.
*All odds shot 08/12/19.
Eden Hazards summer go to the Bernabeau is just one thats been rumored for a while, and together with all the Belgian having finally arrived it will be intriguing to see if he could have the effect that he did in the English Premier League.
In his final season, Hazard scored 16 goals — his return since 2011/12 in his final season at Stamford Bridge at Lille at Ligue 1 so hes arrived at the peak of his powers — when he hit on 20.
While his team needed more than its reasonable share of superstars and in Chelsea was constructed , the Real Madrid squad he has joined is on a different level. At Stamford Bridge, Hazard was a huge fish at a pond that is medium-sized however it s wall-to-wall major fish — every single participant is an worldwide superstar.
Therefore, while last year, some of his 16 goals were made by his brilliance, this season he will be surrounded by imagination, together with director Zinedine Zidane encouraging his players to play with dash and liberty.
There is nothing stopping him scoring 17 along with some if the ground can be hit by Hazard.
Our selection: Hazard to evaluate over 16.5 goals
Real Madrids Benzema will benefit from all of the quality described previously, and he will have Eden Hazard himself supplying the ammunition. His 21 goals equalled his second-best tally out of 2011/12 and last time out was his very best return from 2015/16 because scoring 24.
In his decade at the Bernabeu, the 31-year-old Frenchman has averaged 14.8 targets per season, with his lowest tally being only five 2017/18 — but the major question for those considering a bet on Benzema is how many games will he play this year. He played 36 days to receive his 21 league targets — that the most he has played on Reals radar — but together using Neymar in one season, it does beg the question,wholl the Brazilian substitute?
If the game time of Benzema is limited, so too will his chance to split the 21 goal obstacle, and therefore were attracted around 15 goals this campaign to the Frenchman scoring.
Our pick: Benzema to score less than 17.5 targets
The little maestros document speaks for itself. In his 15 seasons at the Camp Nou, he has scored 419s amazing amount in an average of over 29 per season — a phenomenal achievement.
He cried in 2011/12 once he scored no greater than 50 goals in La Liga, and followed it up the following time with 46; the two seasons being in the middle of his battle with Cristiano Ronaldo.
The set, for many seasons, were locked in combat on the Golden Boot and the and in many ways were responsible for spurring each other on greater heights, together with hitting the half-century in that period.?? But currently there is no Ronaldo in La Liga — he plays with Juventus in Serie A — along with the battle of Messi is with himself and the record books.
Another astounding truth is the way fit the small Argentinian maintains himself, and also at 32-years-old he frequently plays 30 league matches per season and has remained remarkably clear of long-term and serious harms.
His goalscoring ratio over the past couple of seasons has been a goal-a-game and providing he continues to remain healthy and fit and he plays nicely over 30 league matches, we believe hell break the 35-goal obstacle.
Our selection: Messi to evaluate more than 34.5 targets
Let us keep it civil and have fun.
