Match preview

Real Madrid host Espanyol in the La Liga on 20 September 2025. Real Madrid sit 2nd on 82 points and Espanyol are 14th on 41. Real Madrid have won 4 of their last 4 (WWWW), while Espanyol have won 3 of 3 (WWW). In their last 2 meetings, Real Madrid won 2, Espanyol won 0 and 0 ended level. These are probabilities from past results, not guarantees: football upsets happen every week.

How this is worked out

Each club has an Elo rating that moves after every result (bigger wins move it more, home sides get a small boost). We turn the rating gap into expected goals and use a Poisson model to get win, draw and loss chances. The prediction is locked at kick-off and never edited.

Probabilities, not promises. For analysis and entertainment only. 18+.
