Our prediction for the match Leganes vs Real Madrid
“The Cucumber Growers” debuted in the Primera in 2016. And they lasted there for 4 years. Still, then they had to endure in the Segunda, and only the previous cycle gave an opportunity to become champions there. “The Whites” took a number of serious trophies in 2023/2024 – the Spanish Super Cup, the Primera and even the Champions League.
Now Ancelotti has added the UEFA Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup. On the other hand, the final of another, Spanish Super Cup, turned into a rout from Barcelona. The club also lost seriously at the home arena in the Primera, but there the competitors’ misfires helped them return to the lead. However, the grandee from the capital had got one more failure, which happened in the battle against Espanyol. On the one hand, the newcomer is close to the relegation zone and loses much more often than it wins. Nevertheless, it beat Barcelona and Atletico! Speaking about the previous round, where the team competed with Rayo Vallecano, there could have been a goalless draw, but the opponent won thanks to a single goal scored by Ciss.
Speaking about the cup competition, Borja Jimenez’s wards have already beaten 4 opponents. At the same time, the most famous rival was Almeria, which was defeated in the previous round. “The Galacticos” scored 5 goals against both opponents, Deportivo Minera and Celta.
