06-06-2007 La Liga Betting Analysis from PinnacleSports.com |
|
With just two weeks remaining in Spain’s La Liga and only two points separating the top two sides, it looks like the title could be decided on head-to-head form. The Primera division is one of the only European leagues that doesn’t use goal difference to distinguish teams on equal points. In the betting world however, PinnacleSports.com are out on their own, offering up to 60% better La Liga odds than traditional bookmakers. Referee Row Set to Overshadow La Liga ClimaxThe excitement of the Spanish championship race has been overshadowed by a disciplinary row that has centred around Real Madrid’s David Beckham. Beckham had a suspension lifted for crucial game against Sevilla when a yellow card was rescinded on appeal. The referees showed their disgust for the decision of the LFP’s (Spanish League) Disciplinary Committee by agreeing not to record specific reasons for red and yellow cards, thereby making it impossible for suspensions to be processed. After the first week of the action 13 players avoided suspension, and a similar number are expected to follow. ‘They are falsifying and undermining the competition by their actions,’ a spokesman for the LFP told Reuters on Tuesday. ‘They are breaking the rules and disciplinary action should be taken against them. The race for the title in Spain is very close this season and they are prejudicing the interests of a lot of clubs by their action,’ he added. The possibility of legal action by clubs at both ends of the table adds further gravity to the situation. Clubs that suffer as a result of the performances of opposing players that should have been banned may have just cause for complaint. Should Real Madrid take the title, then the Beckham incident will certainly overshadow celebrations at the Bernabeu. Barcelona are currently fighting a ban against Ronaldinho for a red card against Getafe. The leniency shown towards Real Madrid has led Barca to feel that their case should be seen in a similar light. This illustrates the dangers of making special exceptions, as precedents are set that can lead to the undermining of the authority of the football’s ruling bodies.
