Who can stop Leopard? This question recently asked all those who are interested in Spanish football. Naturally, except for the fans of the blue-and-pomegranate. In the starting five rounds, despite the abundance of injuries, the Catalans have not lost a single one point and single heads of the tournament table. However, in the game of the team Tito Вилановы sort of вальяжность and negligence. First of all, in defense. In the match against Sevilla at the stadium «Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan» this may leave the Catalan side...
In the last time «Sevilla» won «the Leopard» in his field two years ago in the first leg of the super Cup of Spain (3:1). But in contrast to the previous two seasons now Andalusian team plays great. Under the leadership of Michel «Sevilla» is started in the following example: three wins, two draws. If Jesus Navas and To take away points from the blue-and-pomegranate, this will not be a big sensation.

Returns whether the «athletic» in his last year's level? In the previous season, the club from Bilbao came out in the finals of the Europa League and the UEFA Cup, the King, and in the current - in five rounds scored only one victory and scored five points. «Athletic» still a lot of scores (8), but even more misses (12). While Marcelo Бьельса nothing can do about it. Perhaps he is not burning with desire to stay in Bilbao. After the summer because of disagreements with the leadership he was going to leave «athletic» - Argentine with difficulty persuaded to stay. The «real Сосьедада» things are not much better (six points in five games), but the expectations from the team of San Sebastian was much smaller.
In case of victory in the Basque Derby with «Athletics» can begin psychological recovery. If this happens, the result will not keep waiting.

Turns on whether the «real» in champion race? It is clear, that in this season for the Royal club is a priority UEFA Champions League, which was the last time he won ten years ago. But the loss of eight points in five rounds is no reason to assert that the current champion has already lost the chances to defend the title.
Especially in the forthcoming round of the team Jose Mourinho, in contrast to the «leopards», a rival of the simple, and the gap from the leader may be reduced. It's in the nineties and «zero» years «Deportivo» was two games and Catalan competition for the highest places. Now from the same team from La Coruna was only a brilliant captain Juan Carlos Valeron, who is 37 years.
In the last time «Депор» win at the Santiago Bernabeu in 2004. After returning to the example of the team Jose Luis Ольтры only to gain a foothold in the top division. And repeat the achievement of the eight-year-old and conquer «Dynamo» in his field guests at this moment it by force.
