Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

Goal Statistics

A PG of 2.0 is decent for FC Barcelona in their clash with Real Madrid, as is their run of scoring 1 goal or more in 83 consecutive La Liga games.

FC Barcelona's defensive record is very strong, H. Flick's men having conceded 1 or less in 6 consecutive La Liga matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.2 for Real Madrid makes sense in this context.
