La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Mame89]

The way Girona moved from having a good performance last season to having a bad performance this season is terrible to think of. Last season Girona performed beautifully that they came top of the table(3rd). This season, they landed at the bottom of the table(16th). I don't know what has gone wrong in the Girona team for them to lose matches in a distasteful manner. It's a shame, Girona's management shouldn't let this poor performance repeat by next season.

It is very sad to see Girona this season which is very different from last season, last season they played like they were fearless even when facing big teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid because the foundation of their squad last season was more confident. But this season their confidence has faded a little after some key players left but there are no players left to replace them and besides this season they are also playing in the Champions League this has a big impact on their overall performance they seem unprepared to face the tight schedule so they can't be consistent this season which makes Girona have to be satisfied with being in 16th position in the La Liga standings at the end of the season.

I hope Girona next season will return to the same as last season, with a fearless attacking game and bringing in some new players to cover the weaknesses that have occurred so far. This season can be an experience for next season, for this season I think it's normal for a team like Girona especially since they have just qualified for the Champions League for the first time so that makes them inconsistent like last season. Hopefully next season Girona will return to the same as last season, especially since they are not playing in the Champions League anymore so they can make another surprise next season.

How will Sevilla end up like this? 

- 21/22 season: 4th
- 22/23 season: 12th
- 23/24 season: 14th
- 24/25 season: 17th

Every season they go much worse. According to this look, they are quite likely to find themselves in the relegation zone by the end of next season. 

They just can't find the right manager for themselves. Emery's times must be brightest ones for them. In his time they weren't amazing in the La Liga maybe but won the Europa League 3 times. They were joining the Champions League anyway.

The club's financial problems affected the fortunes of the team. As of 2023, it was estimated that Sevilla's standing debt was about €90 million. This debt made the club offload some players and also couldn't buy more players to boost the squad.  It is really sad to see a club that had recently won the Europa League struggling to remain in the La Liga.  Except they have access to funds that will enable them to build the team, they might have a worse campaign next season.

Financial problems are leading Sevilla to decline day by day. They have not had a good season since the 21-22 season and their financial problems are making it difficult for them to build a strong team. They even had to let go of some important players who were important to them. They even couldn't add enough players to the team. We might see them in a worse situation next season if their financial problems are not resolved.

Not generally Barcelona fans but also non Barcelona fans. Too many people said Real Madrid president Perez was too selfish to go get a player like Kylian Mbappe. It was irritating to see how they underestimated him and when goals weren't coming his way. He is a goal machine,  I don't need nobody schooling me about Kylian Mbappe I saw what he did with Monaco. I wonder why tue comparison with the img below. If it's not PR, why are they lining Yamal up for the Ballon d'Or? Pathetic!!!

Mbappe has always been a great player, but people just begged Real Madrid not to get him,  due to the fact that he is naturally a left winger, sure a bit attacking left winger, like inside forward, but not a "pure" striker. He was forced to play that at PSG, and now he is forced to play that in Real Madrid. And of course, because he is such a wonderful player, he ends up with getting a lot of scoring, but imagine a world where Mbappe is playing at left wing, nearly like left forward, and they get rid of Vini, sell him for a lot of money, and use that money to get some pure striker instead.

Basically, put Lewa at Real Madrid instead. A team of Mbappe at left, Lewa at striker, and some great player at Right, would make Real Madrid better. This doesn't mean Mbappe is bad at striker, it just means he is wonderful at striker, but even better than that at left wing, where he wants to play.

What has happened to Sevilla in recent years is indeed very concerning even though they are one of the elite teams in La Liga and they even have the nickname of the king of Europe because they have the most Europa League titles. Currently, there are seven Europa League trophies stored in their cabinet. This achievement surpasses other big teams, they have even won the Europa League trophy in a row. But now they seem to have lost their identity, every season instead of competing in the top teams they have to compete with the lower teams. Yes, if they don't immediately improve, it is not impossible that Sevilla will be relegated from La Liga next season.

If you look at the bad impact of Sevilla in the last few years as you have described above because Sevilla often sells their core players due to finances and Sevilla is also often seen from the frequent changes of coaches. Of course this has a big impact on Sevilla's current performance. I personally as a La Liga lover hope that Sevilla can rise next season and can compete again with the top teams.

They even had to let go of some important players who were important to them. They even couldn't add enough players to the team. We might see them in a worse situation next season if their financial problems are not resolved.

We have seen better performances from Sevilla in three consecutive seasons in 2019-21. The team was in fourth place in the table and was able to qualify for the Champions League. But in the last three seasons, we have seen weaker performances from Sevilla. In the previous two seasons, the team was in 12th place in the table. And this season, Sevilla was in 17th place in the table. Sevilla is very lucky that they did not fall into the relegation zone.

This happened because of financial problems. However, the team could not solve any of the financial problems in three consecutive seasons. This is definitely the failure of Sevilla management. The team did not fall into the relegation zone because they was ahead by only 1 point this season. If Sevilla fails to strengthen the squad next season too, then we will see poor performance from this team next season too.

As Barcelona relies on young players, I think Barcelona will become stronger over time, because as the young players improve their skills, they will also gain experience. The role of the coach is very important in this and the internal situation of Barcelona will also play a role in this. If all goes well, I can see Barcelona winning the Champions League next season and competing with Real Madrid once they regain their strength. The El Clasico matches this season have been almost one-sided.

There is no denying that Barcelona had blatant help from the referees, that is really Something that made me want to vomit when I saw it and not because it is from Madrid, it is that they were very blatant, but it is a team that does not need that help because their players are good, then they have no need for that, on the other hand, young people as a whole will never beat experience, if that had been the case they would have beaten Inter Milan and Inter did not give them a chance and they got kicked out of UCL, then if things are like that, the teams will be armed with high level players and not necessarily young ones.

It was a shame that Real Betis finally had to admit defeat to the Premier League club, Chelsea in the UEFA Conference League final. After successfully defeating Fiorentina, I thought at least Real Betis could make a higher attack on Chelsea. But, Chelsea did it much better and in the end Real Betis could only score 1 goal. How bad their defense right now.

Moreover, from the following statistical data:
- Chelsea is indeed far superior in ball possession, very dominant. 66% more
- Chelsea made higher counter attacks
- Real Betis made many missed chances, yes, their shots on target were quite a lot, it's a shame

Source: Real Betis vs Chelsea

As we can see, from the statistics of this game Chelsea were the better and the superior team of the game. Real Betis made good use of the first few minutes and looked like they were going to run away with the trophy after the half time but as some of us knew it, football doesn't end until the final whistle from the referee. Kudos to Chelsea for they didn't relent even after so much dominance in the first and yet no goal, they persisted until they equalised I'm the second and that was when the scoring began.

After real bet is scored the first goal I still wasn't convinced that they would take the trophy lol...I didn't really know why my guts was strong on that feeling that Chelsea was going to win, we have seen it in football a lot of times that the team that scores first always end up losing..real betis were good in previous seasons when it comes to scoring goals and attacking but this season they haven't really impressed me that much.

FIFA Strengthens Penalties for Racism with Tougher Sanctions and Relegation Risks

In a decisive move that echoes across stadiums worldwide, FIFA has fortified its stance against racism in football, unveiling an updated Disciplinary Code that introduces stricter penalties for those who dare to engage in discriminatory behavior. The new rules are not just adding weight to words but backing them with heavier fines, the possibility of suspending or even calling off matches, and the looming threat of relegation for teams that repeatedly offend.

It was once just the referees who carried the whistle on such matters. Now, players and officials join them as sentinels on the field, empowered to immediately report racist behavior. This ushers in a vigilant three-stage protocol that could lead to matches being halted permanently—a stark testament to FIFA’s unwavering commitment to confronting racism head-on.

And that's not where it stops. Financial penalties have soared to steep heights, with fines potentially reaching a staggering 5 million Swiss francs (roughly 6 million U.S. dollars). Beyond this, teams could face the echo of empty stadiums with matches played behind closed doors, or see crucial points sliced away—relegation now a real specter if they can't keep a clean sheet against discrimination.

Not stopping at the football pitch, FIFA promises to step in if national federations hesitate to enforce these rules, and is prepared to take matters to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) if sanctions don't measure up. By December 31, member associations are to integrate these new provisions into their rulebooks, drawing a line in the sand against racism.

Emphasizing the gravity of this initiative, FIFA President Gianni Infantino declared, "racism is not just a problem in football; it is a crime." His words resonate with a call to action, as FIFA aligns with governments and the United Nations to weave anti-racism efforts into the very fabric of criminal law worldwide. These reforms are more than just rules; they are a cornerstone of FIFA’s grander vision for fostering a sporting world steeped in inclusivity and respect.

When I read your post I immediately remembered that I read something saying that Sevilla's financial situation was not good.

Several players will be sold to ease the ongoing financial issues with no bonus of European qualification to bring in additional revenue.

https://sports.yahoo.com/article/sevilla-reject-transfer-option-premier-234000080.html

I was wondering the following: if with this current squad they were unable to perform well, then if they sell players and do not sign other good players, then next season the risk of being relegated will be very high. So the club's management first needs to hire a good coach so he can research good players who have a low cost so they can sell the current high-cost players to the club. Sevilla's management needs to be very smart if they want to get out of this bad situation.

The way Girona moved from having a good performance last season to having a bad performance this season is terrible to think of. Last season Girona performed beautifully that they came top of the table(3rd). This season, they landed at the bottom of the table(16th). I don't know what has gone wrong in the Girona team for them to lose matches in a distasteful manner. It's a shame, Girona's management shouldn't let this poor performance repeat by next season.

And at first the kind of confidence that girona was growing along the line i wonder what happened to them but i no that they wont go far because of this two teams and it will take a longer time for them to actually be able to succed in the la liga and last season was actually very impressive but this season we dont even know exactly what is happening with them and now they there moral seems to be going down it is now as if it will take a longer period for them to match up with does two other teams and can you imagine the space between those two clubs that is last season and then 16th this season jokes aside they perfored poorly this season and this is why there is nothing much for them to do than to tka ethings seriously, next season and see if they have a shot.

This is a bad one for Sevilla, they are just degenerating each season. I remember when Sevilla was a club to reckon in Laliga.
After Real Madrid and Barcelona, we have ATM and the next is Sevilla and that defines when they were winning Europa league like their birth right. I remember that we used to say that time that Sevilla will purposely crash out of the champions league in order to win the Europa league 
During that time, they were able to win two English clubs at the Europa league finals, I think Liverpool was among. Iy is high time the management reforms this beautiful football club.

Lamine Yamal has now been extended by Barcelona until 2031 and of course I am very happy to read the news that Barcelona has extended Lamine Yamal's contract until 2031 because I think Yamal is very suitable to be in Barcelona and indeed Yamal is also very happy to be in Barcelona because it seems like he wants to be a Barcelona Legend player.

~~

Exactly Yamal Jamal extension is a good stance for the Catalan giant because right now he is the one who has been contributing a lot regarding through the team. He is so young but still performing at the same level as a star player. Before his extension many clubs were wishing for him to sign him permanently for their club because he is such a talented player, but Laporta made a good twist in the drama and made his contract extended. Now this contract will be keep him for the next 6 years  til 2031 with the Catalan giant.

Apart from this, he is such a classical player. His style of play is preciously matched up with the GOAT Messi, and probably he could make history like Messi because he is only 17 years old, and honestly no one can stop him, whether it's in dribbling moves or passing skills. His future will be so much better, and probably Barcelona will consider him Messi's successor.

Let something more he is the one who has more possible chances to win the Ballon d'Or....

[Antotena]

Personally I think Yamal will stay in Barcelona for a long time. Let's not forget that Yamal is a La Masia product. Barcelona has discovered and developed this player. And since Yamal is performing well, Barcelona will not be interested in selling this player. We have seen good performances from Yamal throughout this season. Since Yamal is not yet experienced enough, it can be assumed that Yamal will gradually become more experienced and we will see more improvement in Yamal's performance. Maybe in the next few seasons Yamal will become the top scorer in La Liga. Barcelona will not want to lose such a gem.

Forget that media thing Barcelona is doing. They are just packaging Yamal so that people will think he is not been control by the club but Yamal isn't just a player, it's a project and it's a long term for that matter, they are just doing it to make sure man is not been own like Barcelona did with Messi but Yamal isn't going anywhere right now. Anytime I look at Yamal, people are seeing Messi in him but I see more of Neymar reckoning on Barcelona, that's what I see in him.

Why would anyone even think that Laporta will allow anyone to come and take away his only one eye when he was literally complaining bitterly that Real Madrid are selfish because they took the deal before them. It Yamal leave Barcelona by mistake with this current form of Barcelona, they will feel some impact that is not going to be good to them, Raphina will be unaffected but Lewandowski will feel it because Raphina is just like Vinicious, self centered.

Since they let Uni Emery out of the team, I knew they are not ready to improve the team because the management are trying to be wise enough to sign or bring back their players instead of keeping their tough competition as a team that is always below Atletico Madrid and Bilbao in the Spanish Laliga. Now they are battling in the Laliga as they narrowly escaped relegation this season, if care is not taking, they will likely get relegated next season because they don’t seem to sign more players that will add value to the team.

Sevilla has now moved from the UEFA Europa League hero to a an average team that couldn’t even qualify to the conference league.

[GbitG]

Here we go. Mbappe's golden boot soon. Happy to see him finished as the top scorer of La Liga this season. he also breaks a few record, which is also making him being compared to the GOATs.

Paying him more than 100 million will be worth it if he can peform stable in the coming seasons.

Kylian Mbappe already did his job brilliantly, as he ended up his first debut season by winning the European Golden Shoe for the first time ever and also grab a Pichichi Trophy due to the league competition in which he scored 32. At the start of the season, like after the signing of Kylian Mbappé, everyone is arguing about it that Killyan Mbappe will be a failure, like he will be Hazard 2.0, blah blah. But honestly, Kylian Mbappe has proven himself to be called the GOAT.

Apart from this, he simply capped such classical displays at Real Madrid although it was his first season. It is true that he failed to win any trophy for the club except the UEFA Super Cup. But maybe next season will be more exciting than this one because Real Madrid brings up Xabi Alonso as new their new coach. Probably he can win any major trophy for Real Madrid. But anyway, let see what happens next.

Yes, indeed, Chelsea was more prepared, more able to control the ball, more capable of doing effective attacking, and also counter attack that was epci. Real Betis was able to open first in the 9th minute and even managed to lead in the first half. But in the second half, Chelsea really went crazy and an epic counter attack happened. Real Betis couldn't hold it back anymore.

If compared with Chelsea players who gave good contributions and got good player ratings, on the other hand, at Real Betis, only Ezzalzouli A. could give the best contribution for his club.

This really shows declining and not progression, it's still hard to believe that a team like Sevilla is in such a position in the league over these years and if they continue like this it's definitely gonna land the in the second tier football of the Spanish division football. This was a team that was in serious competition in the league and were ending up at least 7th of they have a bad season in the campaign but look at them now. Sevilla was even feared in the Europa league because of their prowess in the competition.

Will any player leave a club if he or she is performing well , gets all he wants and also wouldn't the manager love to keep such players at any cost that could be afforded by the club? Money is one thing, winning trophies is another thing and besides, the more he stays in the club the higher his pay. Also, a player could terminate an agreement depending on agreed terms I think (not sure open to correction). If all that is possible then tell me what else or where else he needs to be than Barcelona

Every season they go much worse. According to this look, they are quite likely to find themselves in the relegation zone by the end of next season. 

I believe that will not happen. We all know who Sevilla are and this team has always been a European league hopeful who has always managed to win titles in these competitions. It's just about time for the management to get the right coach for Sevilla. And after the downturn of the past few seasons, there is a strong pressure for the management to fix what has gone wrong. If not fixed immediately, Sevilla may slowly be forgotten by their fans and this could have a negative impact in the future.
