0

The hour is nigh, the first El Clasico of the season will be kicked off in a few short hours from the time this post goes online. Let’s have a look at the track record of both Spanish giants leading up to the highly-anticipated clash, the biggest rivalry in La Liga history. 

Barcelona

Barcelona Emblem El Clasico Preview: Who will win the derby this time?

Barcelona currently sit at the top of their Champions League table based on goal difference. The same cannot be said for the Blaugrana in La Liga. They are currently bang in the middle of the table, but have two games to play to levely things up with current league leaders Sociedad, who have played 6. 

Barcelona are the favourites heading into this year’s first El Clasico, as Koeman’s team has shown some amazing performances on the pitch as of late. 

Messi El Clasico Preview: Who will win the derby this time?

The likes of Lionel Messi, Ansu Fati and Phillipe Coutinho are all expected to start. Ter Stegen will be missing due to him recovering from a knee surgery. Whether Griezmann will feature or not is the manager’s call. However, the Frenchman is fit for selection. 

Real Madrid

This might seem like an unusual place for the Madridistas to see their team, but Real are the lesser favoured side heading into Saturday’s game. Although skipper Sergio Ramos is to be included in the match, star signing Eden Hazard is yet to feature in the 20/21 season of La Liga. 

In addition, Ferland Mendy is again predicted to start out on the right with Carvajal and Odriozola both injured while Marcelo covers at the left.

All that said, the pressure is on the reigning La Liga champions following two shocking defeats in their last two games. 

Although the home defeat to Cadiz can be explained away by the dip in form due to the international break, the same cannot be said for the shocking 2-3 scramble against Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk. 

The returning Ramos could be the solution to Madrid’s defensive problems, and will be a well needed veteran at the back to deal with the threats of Messi and co.

Samsung to bring back its base S Pen tech to work on the Galaxy Fold 3: Rumors

0

Samsung has mad an announcement of its Galaxy Z Fold 2 in the previous month. That time, some rumors were in the market that Samsung will provide an S Pen with the Z fold 2. But unfortunately, it Didn’t happen. Right now, another rumour just popped out on the internet that Samsung is about to bring its S Pen again in the third generation of its fold series, the Samsung Galaxy X Fold 3. So we can expect an improvement in the technology of the Z Fold 3.

z1 1 Samsung to bring back its base S Pen tech to work on the Galaxy Fold 3: Rumors

If we talk about screen technology, the Samsung Galaxy Note uses Electro-Magnetic Resonance (EMR), which works with a passive stylus and is generally cheaper. While using an S Pen, it gives pretty good accuracy and low latency as well if we compare it to the Active Electrostatic Solution (AES) styluses.

As it is a foldable phone from Samsung, that means there will be a flexible display. To hold its flexibility, Samsung uses the EMR digitizer with the Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG). That’s why the company did not use S Pen in Z Fold 2. If these issues are fixed in time, then we can expect an S Pen with the successor model. The S Pen has only supported tilt recognition yet. But it needs to get more perfect to achieve usability in the Z Fold 3.

If we check the thickness of UTG in the case of the Galaxy Z Fold 2. it is around 30 µm. In this position, if we create pressure on it with the tip of the stylus, it may damage the display. So, Samsung is reportedly working to double the thickness of the UTG from 30 µm to 60 µm. So, it is not that easy to use technology on every device. We have to measure the cons too and that’s why S Pen was not available with the Z Fold 2.

IPL 2020 – KKR vs DC: Match preview, Fantasy XI team and Prediction

The Super Saturday will begin with a barn burner as the surging Delhi Capitals will take on the Kolkata Knight Riders.

Both the teams are in the top four of the IPL points table but would like to solidify their grip even more. DC will surely qualify for the playoffs if they win. KKR, on the other hand, will have to win despite being at a formidable position as the contention for that number 4 spot is getting even more heated.

DC is coming off a loss against the Kings XI Punjab. KKR, on the other hand, is coming off a huge and disappointing loss against the Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Delhi Capitals

Capitals have had some difficulty in their batting since their last few matches they were at least 10-15 runs short. Rishabh Pant being injured has added some distortion in their team combination. The restriction of playing four foreign players had Shimron Hetmyer out of the playing 11 as well. However, they have equally capable Ajinkya Rahane and Alex Carey replacing them.

However, with the return of Rishabh Pant and Shimron Hetmyer, things could be back on track as their batting is concerned. Their bowling, however, can compensate for some fewer runs. Everyone in their bowling attack has been phenomenal.

Shikhar Dhawan 4 IPL 2020 – KKR vs DC: Match preview, Fantasy XI team and Prediction

Kolkata Knight Riders

KKR is coming off a huge and disappointing loss against RCB. KKR registered the lowest 20-over total in IPL history as they were hammered by 8 wickets by RCB. They were wrapped up for 84/8 in 20 overs.

They decided to play Tom Banton, however, used him as a middle-order batsman. Their top-order once again failed to deliver. Shubhman Gill hasn’t been converting his starts into bigger scores and has a low strike rate. Nitish Rana hasn’t been playing up to his potential as well.

eoin morgan kkr 1602040571 IPL 2020 – KKR vs DC: Match preview, Fantasy XI team and Prediction

Fantasy XI League

SHIKHAR DHAWAN (C) (10.5)– Dhawan scored a match-winning knock off 101 not out in just 58 balls against the mighty CSK bowling attack to take his through. He then scored a phenomenal 106 not out in just 61 balls against the Kings XI Punjab. He has scored 50+ runs in his last 4 innings. He’ll be our captain.

KAGISO RABADA (9.5) (VC) – Rabada has been the highest wicket-taker of the season so far. He’ll be our vice-captain.

SHREYAS IYER (9.5) -Iyer has been in great form throughout the season. He adapts to the situation and plays accordingly.

RISHABH PANT (9) – Pant has been consistent with this IPL. He’s right at a cusp of a big inning.

SHUBMAN GILL (9.5) – Gill is in good form and has been really consistent for KKR. 

EOIN MORGAN (9.5) – Morgan can be seen performing his best and being a lone warrior for his team.

MARCUS STOINIS (9) – Stoinis has looked great and has provided both runs and wickets at crucial stages. He’s coming off a wonderful fifty against the formidable CSK batting lineup.

AXAR PATEL (8.5) – Patel has been in great form with both bat and ball.

LOCKIE FERGUSON (8.5) – Ferguson is known for picking up wickets in the middle overs. His raw pace is very effective in UAE pitches.

PAT CUMMINS (9) – Cummins is coming off an impressive 53 against MI. Also, he has some rhythm with his bowling.

PRASIDH KRISHNA (8) – Krishna is a good talent and has been bowling well.

PREDICTION

DC has become a strong force again after the return of Pant and Hetmyer. Even though Prithvi Shaw and skipper Shreyas Iyer have lost their form, Shikhar Dhawan has compensated for that. KKR, on the other hand, still looks all over the place with their combination. Delhi Capitals will therefore defeat the Kolkata Knight Riders.
