Barcelona vs Real Madrid Prediction: the Whites Won't Unerestimate the Opponent in a Friendly

Prediction for the friendly match between Barcelona vs Real Madrid, which will take place on July 30th. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options!

Barcelona

Barça had two games abroad but only played one. The match against Juventus was canceled because the Catalan club had an outbreak of viral gastroenteritis. This also affected Barcelona's second match, where Xavi's team conceded five goals against Arsenal. Although they scored three, they failed 5:3.

Among the changes already taking place this off-season, the departure of Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba to Leo Messi's Inter Miami is worth mentioning. However, the losses are only significant on paper. Alba was no longer a mainstay at Barcelona last season. And to replace Busquets, two players were brought in simultaneously - İlkay Gündoğan from Manchester City and Oriol Romeu from Girona. Barça also signed central defender Iñigo Martínez from Athletic Bilbao.

Real Madrid

Fortunately, there were no infections at Real Madrid, and Carlo Ancelotti's team played both matches in the United States. First, the Whites had an entertaining encounter with AC Milan. They trailed 2:0 after the first half and returned to win 3:2 at the end of the second half. Then, against Manchester United, Real Madrid scored an unanswered goal in each half to win 2:0.

The game of the newcomers was encouraging for the fans of the Madrid club on the results of the first matches of the training camp. So in the game with MU, Jude Bellingham and Joselu scored. Three goals scored against Milan (Valverde's double, Vinicius') is also a good sign. Still, the potential effectiveness of their attack is questionable after Karim Benzema's move to Saudi Arabia.

Expert Betting Tips

Barcelona's tour has been a bumpy one. The game against Juventus was canceled, and for the game against Arsenal, the Catalans might not have time to prepare. Xavi's team may be in better shape for the match against Real Madrid. But it is still unlikely that they can count on a victory. Real has beaten Milan and Manchester United and hardly plans to stop in El Clasico, which, although friendly, does not cease to be important. We bet on the Madrid players and a productive game, considering the over results of both teams in training camp.
