Champions League holders Real Madrid 1/16 to win La Liga opener to Cordoba

Competition: La Liga
Market: Real Madrid to win against Cordoba
Odds: 1/16 @ Bet 365

Fresh from their most successful season for a number of years, Real Madrid will now be looking to start the La Liga campaign with a win against Cordoba this evening. Los Blancos won the Champions League and Copa Del Rey in 2013/14, and have strengthened their squad considerably with the arrivals of James Rodriguez and Toni Kroos this summer.

As a result, Bet 365 are giving odds of 1/16 for Real Madrid to get all three points at home to Cordoba, who are newly-promoted to the division. Carlo Ancelotti’s side are being tipped for the title this season, and will want maximum points from their Cordoba clash to keep on par with Barcelona, who recently won their first La Liga outing.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos could all be starting for the Champions League holders tonight, while home advantage could see them storming to victory. Real won 16 of their 19 home games last season, so Cordoba have a tough task to get a result.
