Real Madrid have started the season in superb form, sitting top of the table with a flawless record. Their midweek 2-1 win over Marseille in the UEFA Champions League extended their winning run to seven matches in all competitions. Xabi Alonso’s side look sharp in attack, with Vinícius Júnior and Arda Güler leading the charge, while their midfield control remains a strength.
At home, Los Blancos are typically dominant, and with momentum firmly on their side, they’ll be expected to dictate the tempo and push for another high-scoring win.

1XBet Spread: +1.5
1XBet Moneyline: 6.50
1XBet Over/Under: Under 2.5
Espanyol have been one of the early surprises of the La Liga season, sitting third after a strong start. They edged Mallorca 3-2 last weekend and have shown resilience in tight matches. Their attack has been effective, but facing Real Madrid at the Bernabéu represents their toughest challenge yet.
The Catalan outfit will need to stay compact defensively while relying on counter-attacks to trouble Madrid. However, their shaky defensive record could be a major weakness against Los Blancos’ relentless forwards.
MatchPlug Prediction for Real Madrid vs Espanyol
Espanyol have exceeded expectations so far, but facing Real Madrid away is a completely different test. Los Blancos have both the form and firepower to outscore their opponents comfortably.
