Barcelona - Real Madrid prediction and betting tips on May 11, 2025
Game Prediction
In the 35th round of the Spanish La Liga, a match between Barcelona and Real Madrid will take place on May 11, 2025. This is the last chance for the guests to threaten their rival's complete triumph.
Our Prediction for Barcelona vs Real Madrid
The Catalan giant did not win any trophies last season and significantly fell behind their eternal opponent in La Liga. This led to Xavi being replaced by Flick. Meanwhile, everything went almost perfectly for Ancelotti: besides the national championship, his squad secured the Super Cup and the Champions League.
But now Carlo is already rumored to be packing his bags. His team has seriously underperformed; the trophies, the UEFA Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup, are hardly valued and were won back in 2024. Since the New Year, there have been defeats to Barcelona in the Super Cup and recently in the Copa del Rey. Between these missteps, they were knocked out in the Champions League quarterfinals, losing twice to Arsenal. Even in La Liga, having once led, they approach the "El Clasico" as the trailing side. Celta could have widened the gap, but were still beaten 3-2. "Hansi," in addition to the trophies already claimed in Catalonia, set his sights on the major silverware. The La Liga fixture against Valladolid wasn't spectacular, but the main thing was victory. No less important for the German coach and his players was to make a splash in the Champions League. There, they battled against Inter. After a 3-3 draw at home, they were leading in Milan but conceded both at the end of regular time and in extra time.
Yamal and his teammates are doing great: scoring an average of 2.68 goals per game while conceding just 0.97. The visitors show a worse ratio—scoring twice per match on average but conceding slightly less in response, at 0.97.
