The new La Liga year kicks off Friday, August 16 when Athletic Bilbao amuse Barcelona — kick-off at 3:00 pm EST..
Its predicted to be yet the following race at the peak of the table between Barcelona and Real Madrid, and Lionel Messi is practically sure to be among the leagues leading goalscorers. But some interesting over/under props have also opened up for a few of the major protagonists of the league.
*All odds.
Eden Hazards summertime proceed to the Bernabeau is one thats been rumored for a while, and with all the Belgian having finally came it will be intriguing to see if he can have the same effect he did in the English Premier League.
In his final year, Hazard scored 16 goals — his return since 2011/12 in his final season at Stamford Bridge at Lille in Ligue 1 once he hit 20 — so hes arrived at the summit of his powers.
While his group at Chelsea was assembled and needed more than its fair share of superstars, the Real Madrid squad hes joined is on a different level. In Stamford Bridge, Hazard was a large fish at a pond that is medium-sized but it huge fish — each single participant is an international superstar.
Therefore, while last season, a number of his 16 goals were made through his genius, this season hell be surrounded with imagination, together with director Zinedine Zidane encouraging his players to perform with liberty and dash.
There is nothing stopping him scoring 17 along with a few In case the ground can be strike by Hazard.

Real Madrids Benzema will gain from all the quality described above, plus hell have Eden Hazard himself providing the ammunition. His 21 goals out last time was his return since scoring 24 at 2015/16 and equalled his second-best tally out of 2011/12.
In his decade in the Bernabeu, the 31-year-old Frenchman has averaged 14.8 goals a year, with his lowest tally being just five 2017/18 — but the big issue for those contemplating a bet on Benzema is the number of games will he play this season. He played 36 days, to acquire his or her 21 league targets — that the most hes played on the radar of Real — but using Neymar in a season, it does beg the question,wholl the Brazilian substitute?
In case Benzemas match time is limited, so also will his opportunity to split up the 21 goal barrier, and therefore around 15 goals this effort, we are attracted for this reason.
Our selection: Benzema to score less than 17.5 targets
The maestros record speaks for itself. At a mean of over 29 a year, he has scored 419s amount in his 15 seasons in the Camp Nou — a phenomenal achievement.
He peaked in 2011/12 once he scored no less 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 pair, for several seasons, had been locked in combat on the Golden Boot and also the Ballon dOr and in various ways were accountable for spurring each other on greater heights, with both hitting on the.?? But theres no Ronaldo at La Liga — he plays for Juventus in Serie A — along with Messis struggle is with himself and also the record books.
Another astounding reality is the way fit the little Argentinian keeps himself, and also at 32-years-old he regularly plays 30 league games per season and has stayed remarkably clear of serious and long-term harms.
His goalscoring ratio over the past couple of seasons has been nearly a goal-a-game and providing he proceeds to stay fit and healthy and he plays well over 30 league games, we believe he will break the 35-goal barrier.
Our selection: Messi to evaluate more than 34.5 targets
Lets have fun and keep it civil.
