La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[imamusma]

Nico Williams on Barcelona can inflate his numbers by a lot with ease, i dont have any doubt about that.

Barcelona scores much more than Bilbao and he can provide a lot more of assits and plus he is gonna have much more clear chances to score also, the only perhaps i see is, maybe he doesnt have so much minutes, in Bilbao he plays all the minutes as an starter but here.... i dont know.

With the support of a better squad and manager tactics, Nico William productivity will definitely increase. I think Hansi Flick will make Nico William a key player in the main squad, Barcelona will not recruit him to be a second string player. Barcelona front line combination next season will look very sharp if Nico William is added, I think Barcelona has a striker who is no less great than Real Madrid.

[Fiatless]

Nico Williams is a young player with good talent, and he is also a good winger, but Barcelona already has Raphinha in that position. So if Barcelona really does sign Nico, then there will be a fight for the position, and it means one of them will have to sit on the bench more often. But perhaps Hansi Flick has a different view, and maybe he will give a new role to one of them. As far as I know, Raphinha has also played as an attacking midfielder, and I think he is quite good at playing in that position.

Coaches can always use versatile players in different positions. Some players are even converted to another wing and they still.do well. Also remember that Barcelona will be competing for different trophies so they need more than one player for a particular position. Nico Williams is a good player and I support Barca to sign him. I trust the judgment of Hansi Flick and believe that he can manage any player he signs. The major impediment to this is the financial status of the club. They might not be able to register Nico until they sell some players.

Barcelona have beaten Real Madrid in all the El Clasico matches this season in La Liga and Real Madrid have not performed significantly well this season, so naturally we should expect Real Madrid to come back stronger next season. The new manager who has joined Real Madrid is great and he is a former Real Madrid player, so with his new strategy, the team will definitely do better next season.

However, after this manager took charge, Real Madrid faced Al Hilal in a Club World Cup match where Real Madrid could not ensure victory. You said Mbappe was not in the team in that match, I think Mbappe is not needed in the team to win against Al Hilal because except for Mbappe, all the other players in the team were with the team. We have to accept that Real Madrid's performance is not like last season, but we have faith in them and I at least expect that they will definitely do well in the coming seasons.

Yeah, in the previous season, Barcelona was really good they really dominated all El Clásico matches. They didn't let any single match for Real Madrid. In all matches they smashed the Real Madrid team. But now I hope Real Madrid is also looking forward to rebuilding the team very well and that's why they signed new coach and are also intending to sign few good players. So I hope they will improve their team next season, like they will try to sign more good players to get their revenge from Barcelona.

Anyway let's see if Real Madrid really regains its capacity or they will repeat the same story. Xabi Alonso played his first match but unfortunately he also drew.

--snipped--

The depth of the squad that Atletico Madrid has is no less good than the depth of the squad that Real Madrid and Barcelona have. But still, Atletico Madrid is still unable to compete with Barcelona and Real Madrid. These three teams are always fighting for top spot. And sometimes Atletico Madrid also manages to get to the top in a few moments. But they always didn't manage to stay there for long.

Well that's it, they are often inconsistent. Like what happened this season, they were even very good at the beginning of the season. but it all ended bitterly, again they failed to return to the La Liga championship, were eliminated in the UCL, and also even in the Copa del Rey.

Oh yeah, regarding La Liga, finally the last club promoted to La Liga is Real Oviedo. This is a long wait for them who have waited for about 24 years to be able to re-enter La Liga.

I hope that the successful collaboration between Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal in the national team will continue in Barcelona. Despite their young age, the duo attracted attention with their harmony on the field and I can easily say that the fans can give nightmares to the opposing defenses on the wings, and if we include other Barcelona players and a good coach, Nico Williams will be an indispensable player in Barcelona.

Barcelona front line combination next season will look very sharp if Nico William is added, I think Barcelona has a striker who is no less great than Real Madrid.

Of course Barcelona recruited Nico Williams not to make him a bench warmer, he will get a place in the main squad because of his background as a regular player in the Spanish national team and Bilbao. Hansi Flick will have to change his formation if Nico is brought in because he plays in the same position as Raphinha. I predict Barcelona ideal formation (if Nico officially joins) is 4-2-3-1, the midfield is filled by De Jong and Pedri, while Yamal, Raphinha and Nico will help Lewandowski as a lone striker. Of course this formation is very scary, Yamal and Nico abilities make the wing area very dangerous, while Raphinha becomes a shadow striker who is free to operate in any area. This kind of player material is then supported by Hansi Flick's attacking philosophy which will make Barcelona attacking power very difficult to stop.

Nico Williams, Pedri and Yamal have a friendly relationship. And that is why Laporta wants to add Nico to the squad even though Barcelona is in financial crisis. Barcelona will have to spend a large amount for Nico Williams. Even then, Laporta has expressed his desire to finalize this deal.

Barcelona definitely needs a player like Williams. Because Lewandowski will not be in Barcelona's squad for long. Barcelona needs a worthy  worthy replacement of Lewandowski. So far we have not seen Nico Williams score many goals. But Nico has the potential. If Hansi FLick can use Yamal-Raphinha - Nico correctly, this trio can score a lot of goals.

Finally one promotion team has been decided, Real Oviedo is that team. They made it through the play offs after winning 3-1 on aggregate. Real Oviedo's return to LaLiga took 24 years. Oviedo's return was also the role of Santi Cazorla. He became a penalty taker, with 40 years of age he is still a mainstay of Oviedo. But the next tough task is to stay in La Liga, not just for 1 season. Head choach Rea Oviedo Veljko Paunovic must work extra hard and take advantage of the transfer moment.

We have to accept that Real Madrid's performance is not like last season, but we have faith in them and I at least expect that they will definitely do well in the coming seasons.

yes Barcelona is really amazing because of course he played well in the 2024-2025 season he always won in the El Clasico match. yes of course now with the presence of Xabi Alonso in my opinion is a breath of fresh air because of course xabi is a former Real Madrid midfielder, of course he will have the potential to be a good coach for Real Madrid for the coming season.

indeed in the Al Hilal vs Real Madrid match in the World Cup between clubs of course I was also a little disappointed because at that time the result was a draw and indeed even though Mbappe didn't play Real Madrid should have been able to win because of course when viewed from the squad of course Real Madrid is better because it has many star players which of course Real Madrid should have won. but of course there we see that Real Madrid really needs Mbappe and of course now Xabi Alonso must really be able to improve the Real Madrid squad so that even when Mbappe doesn't play Real Madrid's performance is good.

Yes, in my opinion, Real Madrid will certainly have good potential in the coming seasons, although this season (2024-2025) their performance is not good, but of course Xabi also needs time to adapt and I am sure that in the next match they will play, I think Real Madrid will be better, yes, we'll just see what happens later.

A dramatic comeback from Real Oviedo after they lost one goal aggregate in the first half. I thought that would have no motivation to win it, but i was wrong. They're down 2 goals aggregate after Mirandes scored another goal at the first half, but it's forced them to have more motivation to win, and they scored three goals.
Congrats for Oviedo being promoted to the La Liga. It has been more than two decades since their last participation in La Liga.

Barcelona front line combination next season will look very sharp if Nico William is added, I think Barcelona has a striker who is no less great than Real Madrid.

Yes, if Nico William really joins Barcelona, ​​of course Barcelona will have a truly terrifying front line. Because Nico William if combined with players like Yamal, Raphinha, and also Lewandowski, it will certainly be a really good combination. So with this, Barcelona does have a squad that is no less good than Real Madrid at this time. In fact, in my personal opinion, Barcelona currently has a better squad than Real Madrid. Because it was proven that last season Barcelona was able to outperform Real Madrid in all aspects, so if Barcelona succeeds in bringing in Nico, of course Barcelona's squad will be more complete.

But at this time Barcelona cannot be sure that they can bring in Nico, although according to the news circulating Nico has agreed to all the conditions given by Barcelona to him and it can be said that Nico has confirmed his choice to join Barcelona. But the only problem that Barcelona has not yet resolved is redeeming Nico's release clause from Bilbao. So if Barcelona has enough money to penetrate Nico's clause from Bilbao, it won't take long for Nico to immediately sign a contract with Barcelona. But until now it seems like Barcelona is trying to find money to pay the clause. So I hope that Barcelona can have the funds soon, because I think it would be a shame if Nico is not brought in by Barcelona this season.

I am very impressed with Santi Cazorla, he is very old for a midfielder but his experience is enough to help the team even though individually Santi Cazorla was only able to score 5 goals and 5 assists for Real Oviedo but I think there is a mentality that is raised for Cazorla to help the team.
This is a great day for Real Oviedo who have successfully returned to the highest competition of Spanish football, but this euphoria cannot be too prolonged because the management must think harder to stay in La Liga and that is not easy.

Both Nico and Barcelona have agreed on this transfer, Nico even turned down Arsenal's offer just to go to Barcelona. Although Barcelona is currently having financial problems, I think they will be able to find a way out soon. OFC they will not waste the golden opportunity that comes to them, Nico is a potential player & can also be an investment option for Barcelona considering his young age, for that reason I'm sure Barcelona will be able to complete & finalize this transfer soon.

He is still quite young and has great potential so Barcelona will be quite profitable if they are able to realize the transfer and I am sure Barcelona will find a way to bring Nico Williams to Camp Nou. Financial problems do make it a little difficult for Barcelona to recruit Nico Williams because his original club is asking for a high price, but Barcelona is very lucky because the player actually prefers Barcelona compared to several teams that are also quite interested in him. Now just waiting for Barcelona's steps on how to take advantage of the existing conditions and they have to find a way to get the player.

Congrats for Real Oviedo returning back to La Liga since relegated at 2001 and take almost 20 years for playing at higher level league, dramatically how Oviedo back to La Liga after defeating at first leg match defeating by Mirandes and second leg won over 3-1 with aggregate 3-2. Santi Cazorla scoring first goals and become crucial match for him success promoting Oviedo to La Liga and interested waiting for his games next season.

For promotion team, must working hard how to prepare next season by playing higher level competition, regarding last season always any promotion team have relegated, Real Oviedo must sign any top players and set up minimum target keep staying at La Liga or reach top standings position. Two month left before La Liga season 2025/26 begin, Real Oviedo have enough time prepare team and sign in new players if won't one season only playing at La Liga.

I feel like it's time for us to adapt to a new standard of player career span that tends to be extended to 40-year old. In the past ten or twenty years ago, there were very little players who managed to play until their 38, 39 or 40 year-old but now it has become more popularly. It's probably from higher professionality of players as well as better nutritious and health care nowadays for football players. We have been witnessing Pepe, Santi Carzola, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lewandowski are still playing very well around 40s. Seasons ago, there was Joaquin in Real Betis and I don't see it is a sort of coincidence but a truly new trend in football.

Congrats for Real Oviedo returning back to La Liga since relegated at 2001 and take almost 20 years for playing at higher level league, dramatically how Oviedo back to La Liga after defeating at first leg match defeating by Mirandes and second leg won over 3-1 with aggregate 3-2. Santi Cazorla scoring first goals and become crucial match for him success promoting Oviedo to La Liga and interested waiting for his games next season.

He debuted his player career with Real Oviedo and now he has contributed to this club for a ticket of promotion to La Liga next season. No matter how long he will play in next years, this is a true milestone for him and Real Oviedo. The next season will certainly be very challenging and stressful for Real Oviedo and they will possibly struggle to play, grab points for staying in La Liga at the season ending.

I really believe in Barcelona management, they are always able to solve problems and make the team much better, for example like last season when many people doubted them because they were experiencing a financial crisis but the proof is they were able to make the team better and win the La Liga title.
Likewise in this case, Nico Williams and Barcelona have agreed, Nico Williams really wants to play with Barcelona and Barcelona really wants Nico Williams so there is no reason for this transfer not to happen.

. Head choach Rea Oviedo Veljko Paunovic must work extra hard and take advantage of the transfer moment.

This is the mistake newly promoted club side makes every year. They believe in working hard.
Newly promoted club sides need to sign quality players first before working hard. And the new signings doesn’t have to be expensive; they need to be a blend of experience and quality signings.

Staying in the la liga after years in the relegation requires grit, experience and quality signing’s; signing loan players won’t work.

Good luck to Real Oviedo

[Velvet78]

ter Stegen is clearly out of Barcelona project. Joan García has been signed for 25 million euros. I assume they didn't pay for a backup goalkeeper that much? 

I wonder where ter Stegen's next station will be... For 2 seasons he had serious injuries. This is also a risk but he is still wonderful at the same time.

Nico Williams on Barcelona can inflate his numbers by a lot with ease, i dont have any doubt about that.

Barcelona scores much more than Bilbao and he can provide a lot more of assits and plus he is gonna have much more clear chances to score also, the only perhaps i see is, maybe he doesnt have so much minutes, in Bilbao he plays all the minutes as an starter but here.... i dont know.

I totally agree with you. Nico Williams can easily shine and improve his skills more at Barcelona. At first he would need to fight for his place as LW though because Raphinha had an incredible season. 

But in time, we would start to see Nico in the starting lineup as well...

[Inwestour]

I hope that the successful collaboration between Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal in the national team will continue in Barcelona. Despite their young age, the duo attracted attention with their harmony on the field and I can easily say that the fans can give nightmares to the opposing defenses on the wings, and if we include other Barcelona players and a good coach, Nico Williams will be an indispensable player in Barcelona.

It looks like everything is already decided and Nico Williams will become a Barcelona player with the move expected to happen after the first of July. Barcelona are ready to activate the release clause as early as next week and there is already information that Williams is looking for a place to live in Barcelona which means the deal is moving towards completion. There are some difficulties in this agreement because Athletic are demanding that Barcelona pay the entire transfer fee in a single payment while Barcelona are insisting on splitting the amount into several installments. But this is not surprising because Barcelona still have financial problems.

Are you joking? Since when a player with cheap price has quality? I meant the price is always going stright to the quality of players.

Real Oviedo has very small revenue operation averagely 15m - 20m. It's impossible to sign quality players with such revenue.

They have also operational cost needs to be covered. They can only afford mediocre - amateur football players to be signed.

Their operating revenue is also far less compared to the teams which recently relegated such as Valladolid, Las Palmas, and Leganes.
