The new La Liga season kicks off Friday, August 16 if Athletic Bilbao entertain Barcelona — kick-off in 3:00 pm EST..
Its anticipated to be another race at the peak of the table between Barcelona and Real Madrid, and Lionel Messi is practically certain to be among the leagues leading goalscorers. But some over/under props that were interesting have also opened up for some of the leagues main protagonists.
*All odds shot 08/12/19.
The summertime move to the Bernabeau of eden Hazard is just one thats been rumored for a while, and with the Belgian having came it will be interesting to see whether he could have the impact he did in the English Premier League.
In his final year at Stamford Bridge, Hazard scored 16 goals — his return because at Lille in Ligue 1 when he struck 20 — and so he has arrived at the peak of his powers at Madrid.
While his group in Chelsea was constructed and needed more than its reasonable share of superstarsis on another level. Hazard was a huge fish in a pond but at the Bernabeu, itmajor fish — each player is an international superstar.
So, while last year, a number of his 16 goals were created through his own genius, this year hell be surrounded by imagination, together with director Zinedine Zidane supporting his players to play with dash and liberty.
Theres nothing stopping him scoring 17 and some In case Hazard can hit the floor.
Our pick: Hazard to evaluate over 16.5 targets
Real Madrids Benzema will benefit from all of the quality and he will have the ammunition being himself provided by Eden Hazard. His 21 goals last time out was his return since scoring 24 and equalled his tally out of 2011/12.
In his decade at the Bernabeu, the 31-year-old Frenchman has averaged 14.8 targets a year, with his smallest tally being just five 2017/18 — but the major question for those contemplating a bet on Benzema is the number of games will he perform this season. To get his or her 21 league targets, he played 36 days — the most he has played in a single time — but together with Neymar on the radar of Real, it does beg the question,who will the Brazilian substitute?
In case Benzemas game time is limited, so too will his opportunity to split up the 21 goal barrier, and therefore were attracted to the Frenchman scoring around 15 goals this effort.
Our pick: Benzema to evaluate less than 17.5 goals
The tiny maestros album speaks for itself. He has scored the amazing total of 419 in a mean of over 29 a year — a phenomenal accomplishment.
He cried in 2011/12 if he scored no longer than 50 goals in La Liga, and followed it up the next season with 46; both seasons being in the middle of his battle with Cristiano Ronaldo.
The set, for many seasons, were locked in battle over the Golden Boot and also the and in most ways were accountable for spurring each other on greater heights, with both hitting on on the.?? However, now theres no Ronaldo at La Liga — he plays with Juventus in Serie A — along with the battle of Messi is with also the books and himself.
Another astounding reality is the way fit the little Argentinian keeps himself, and also at 32-years-old he regularly plays over 30 league games per season and has stayed remarkably clear of long-term and serious injuries.
His goalscoring ratio during the past couple of seasons has been almost a goal-a-game and providing he continues to remain healthy and fit and he plays nicely over 30 league games, we believe hell break the 35-goal obstacle.
Our selection: Messi to score greater than 34.5 goals
Let us have fun and keep it civil.
