The newest La Liga year kicks off Friday, August 16 when Athletic Bilbao entertain Barcelona — kick-off in 3:00 pm EST..
It is expected to be the following two-horse race at the peak of the table between Barcelona and Real Madrid, and Lionel Messi is guaranteed to be among the leagues leading goalscorers. However, Bovada has opened several intriguing over/under props up for a few of the leagues main protagonists.
*All odds shot 08/12/19.
The summer proceed to the Bernabeau of eden Hazard is just one that has been rumored for a while, and together with all the Belgian having eventually came it will be interesting to see if he could have the identical effect that he did at the English Premier League.
Hazard scored 16 goals — his best return since at Lille at Ligue 1 so hes arrived at the peak of his powers — when he hit on 20.
While his group at Chelsea was assembled and needed more than its reasonable share of superstarsis on another level. Each player is an global superstar but it huge fish although at Stamford Bridge, Hazard was a huge fish at a pond that is medium-sized.
So, while last year, a number of his 16 goals were made by his brilliance, this season he will be surrounded with ingenuity, with manager Zinedine Zidane encouraging his players to perform with liberty and flair.
There is nothing stopping him scoring 17 along with some if Hazard can hit the floor.
Our pick: Hazard to score over 16.5 targets
Real Madrids Benzema will benefit from each one the quality plus he will have Eden Hazard himself supplying the ammunition. His 21 goals out last time was his very best 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 lowest tally being just five in 2017/18 — however, the big question for those contemplating a bet on Benzema is the number of games will he perform this season. He played 36 times to receive his or her 21 league targets — that the most he has played in a season — but together with Neymar on the radar of Real, it does beg the question,who will the Brazilian substitute?
If the game time of Benzema is limited, so also will his opportunity to split up the 21 goal obstacle, and so were drawn about 15 goals this effort towards the Frenchman scoring.
Our pick: Benzema to evaluate less than 17.5 goals
The small maestros album speaks for itself. He has scored the remarkable amount of 419 in a mean of over 29 per season — a phenomenal achievement.
He cried in 2011/12 if he scored no greater than 50 goals in La Liga, and followed up the following season with 46; both seasons being in the midst of his battle with Cristiano Ronaldo.
The set, for many seasons, were locked in battle on also the Ballon dOr and the Golden Boot and in many ways were accountable for spurring each other onto greater heights, together with hitting on the.?? However, theres no Ronaldo at La Liga — he plays with Juventus in Serie A — along with Messis struggle is with himself and also also the record books.
Another astounding fact is how fit the small Argentinian keeps himselfand also at 32-years-old he plays 30 league games per season and has remained remarkably clear of serious and long-term injuries.
His goalscoring ratio during the last few seasons has been almost a goal-a-game and supplying he continues to remain fit and healthy and he plays nicely over 30 league matches, we think hell break the 35-goal barrier.
Our selection: Messi to score more than 34.5 goals
Lets keep it civil and have fun.
