La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[CryptoBuds]

Barcelona didn't have a very easy game against Valencia just as I expected. Valencia scored first and after seeing that I started thinking like maybe Barcelona wouldn't be able to get a win at the end. But it was really great to see them reacting in less than ten minutes. Depay and Coutinho put on a really good show and Barcelona won the game by 3-1 by turning it around. Maybe this could be a sign that they would start performing better in the La Liga at least. But still a very tough season is waiting for them.

Valencia was not a weak opponent. But I like Barcelona's teamwork the most in this match. Although Barcelona did not attack much in this match. But all the attacks were extraordinary. The players have played great in their place. Ansu Fati's goal in particular was remarkable. If the young players can do the same in the upcoming matches, Barcelona will be able to return to their strong form.

Barcelona showed their fighting spirit yesterday! Honestly, I thought Valencia could beat them with a quick goal!
It turns out that Barcelona are now not far behind the leaders in the standings... A few more good games and they could be on top! I don't think it'll be easy for them... First the Champions League game against Dynamo Kyiv and then the game against Real...

at least this victory can increase the enthusiasm of the players to be even better in the game in the next match.
the consistency crisis must be corrected immediately so that they can better navigate La Liga with better things now and don't make this a coincidence.
at least they will be more enthusiastic when they can achieve positive results.

It's too soon to say so. When you take into consideration all matches that Barcelona has played this season (Europe inclusive), it's clear that they've been performing "very" poorly compared to previous seasons. They're just lucky to be in 7th place with just 5 points away from top spot this season in between those lacklustre performances. What I saw last night was an electrifying performance and they'd need more of that if they want to end the season with at least 1 trophy.

Actually Depay was good in that match, but he lost so many balls that could have been used to score goals or provide assists for his teammates. Depay scored 1 goal and 1 assist for Fati, which was good while Coutinho celebrated his goal with a lot of emotion. This victory will not guarantee Barcelona can rise and be consistent to continue to win, they are weak and often struggle to score many goals.

After getting bad results from several previous barcelona matches, of course with this victory it can make Koeman and his squad smile a little, I saw in that match ansu fati began to have a very important role in helping barcelona comeback but it seems he doesn't look really optimal 100%.
Talk about the finances of barcelona, ​​I think barcelona will take a long time to fix these problems, especially now that they have a very large debt to the other club

Now it is very important to return a positive spirit to the team, as it was before. Perhaps this match with Valencia will be able to become a watershed match that will allow Barcelona to start winning. The start turned out to be bad, but nothing critical happened and Barcelona is only 5 points behind the first place (until Real and Atlético played their matches). I think that this difference can be won back throughout the season if they start winning.

Yes, right now barcelona just need consistency in their game to be able to catch up on points from their eternal rivals (real madrid), in my opinion koeman should be able to take advantage of the remaining matches to be able to get as many points as possible before mid-season or until the January transfer market later opened, so that they will not have too big a difference in points with other teams, moreover maybe other clubs will strengthen their team with new players and of course it will make it difficult for Barcelona to beat them later in the second leg match this season, because to be honest I a little doubt if Barcelona will have a lot of money to be able to improve their squad in the January transfer market later.

Yes, no one expected an easy game for Barcelona. And many gamblers avoided Barcelona this weekend. But, surprisingly they gave a very beautiful game and fantastic win.
The last time, I also recognised lack of quality as part of Barcelona's current problem. Now that some players like Aguero, Coutihno and others are available. They will surely make a difference. They can allow Memphis to lead the team in terms of the star man, it's not bad. He has been consistent especially this season in FCB.

However, next week will be quite difficult because the El Clasico match and Barcelona will host at Camp Nou as long as they can get through this challenge then Barcelona can be sure to have bounced back.

Do you say "quite difficult"? I am sure it will be a "difficult" or "very difficult" match for Barcelona. They may play at home, but they will play against Real Madrid. After 2 bad results in the last 2 matches, I believe that Real Madrid target to win in El Classico. They must get 3 points to keep their positions and compete with Atletico Madrid, Sevilla, and Real Sociedad. If you take a look at the La Liga table, these teams will have the same points if they all win on matchday 10. Sorry, but I think it is not the time for Barcelona to bounce back. Comparing the players' qualities between Real and Barcelona today, I believe Real Madrid will be the winner.

El Classico will be a very difficult match for both teams, because what is at stake is pride. El Classico has always been a highly awaited match,
because both Barcelona and Real Madrid definitely want to win the game. I'm sure the match will be tough, both teams will give their best to
win the match. Because losing to a rival is very painful, we will see a very exciting match. If we look at Barcelona's performance this season,
which is not good, I also predict Real Madrid will win the match. But in the El Classico match maybe Barcelona will show their best game,
so Real Madrid must be careful. In conclusion, the El Classico match will be difficult to predict, because both teams must be obsessed with
winning the game.

In any case, Real Madrid also does not show results of a fantastic level in recent matches and a draw with Villarreal and the subsequent losses to Sheriff with Espanyol can hardly be called acceptable for a team of this level and with such ambitions. Therefore, despite the fact that I gave the advantage to Real Madrid, it cannot be said that Barcelona has absolutely no chance of achieving an acceptable result, what I would call a draw. However, the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona itself is a great sign and the players should give their best on the football field in full, regardless of the tournament situation and other external incoming factors happening with the clubs at a given time.

I also avoided betting on Barcelona in this match but they won it well. when Gaya scored in the fifth minute I was very sure valencia would win but it all changed when Fati scored a goal for Barca.

I don't know if Barca will be consistent and can finish in the top 3 of the La Liga standings this season.

[KTChampions]

I'm surprised that in a pair of Barcelona - Real the odds from the bookmakers are practically equal:
‍2,65 - 3,70 - 2,55
Although there are only two points between the teams, it is clear that Real is in much better shape and will be the favorite in this match. I do not think that the factor of home field will outweigh the real balance of forces of the teams at the moment.

^ I think that Memphis and Aguero upfront along with Ansu Fati will be a deadly combination. Aguero has always been a complete forward, Depay is a technical player and has good enough finishing skills and combines that with the young blood of Ansu. Overall if these three have good chemistry, I think Barca can easily recover from this crisis.

^ I have to say this El Classico will be an equal one. Both the teams are not doing so well lately. And If I'm not wrong, this will be the first El Classico without both Messi and Ronaldo. A start of a new generation if you say.  Both Real and Barca will be hungry for the win. Real have a title shot and won't want to lose the lead in the table and Barca will count this match as their 'comeback' match. Overall we will see a very good and competitive football match. Also, a lot of the matches depend on how Benzema and Aguero play.

El Clásico match clearly has a high prestige and also, although the odds are almost the same but we can see clearly that Madrid remain the favorites maybe because of their position in the standings and their internal situation. I personally am not surprised by the available odds because then I assume that both of them still have a chance to win or maybe a draw. It doesn't matter their statistics now in the standings, because when it is a match that has a long historical theme, the match will still be hot with high tension.

This El classico is somewhat balanced. Among Real Madrid and Barcelona, non will brag that they are in their fine form. Real Madrid is more favourable than Barcelona because; they have played some couple of El classico without Ronaldo and have seen what it looks like. But for over a decade, this is the first for Barcelona to play El classico without Messi. They will once again feel his absence.
This does not mean that if Memphis, Aguero and others honestly want to upturn the expected result, they could not.
So, it is safe to bet on goals instead. Over 2.5 goals will be fair.

Sure, I understand the historical background of this match, but history has little to do with the current strength of the teams. Most likely, such a skew in the odds is due to the fact that Barcelona fans around the world are betting on it no matter what, and bookmakers are forced to take this into account. I will watch how Real and Barcelona play their matches in the Champions League and most likely I will bet that Real will not lose at least.

Essentially all the big clubs are now in flux in this league, except for Atletico who seem to be performing above and beyond what they're normally capable of!

Barca are strangely the favorites though even though they haven't done well against Real recently, even with Messi.

But as long as our kids play well, we always have a chance.

I will watch how Real and Barcelona play their matches in the Champions League and most likely I will bet that Real will not lose at least.

Bookmakers will observe the bet data and can try to play with gamblers. They control their bookmakers and odds they give to gamblers are in their control. I would like to bet for cards (yellow, red), corner kicks, foul numbers rather than bet what team will win this El Classico. It will help me two advantages: I can always enjoy the match because what team wins, it does not matter with me.  I don't bet for a winner. It is easier to bet with corner kicks, foul numbers.

It is easier to pick Real Madrid but in match like El Classico, statistics mean nothing. Players will decide match, not statistics or recent forms.
Barcelona are in worse form but they have dangerous players who can help them to score goals and beat Real Madrid. On the paper, Real Madrid are stronger but let's see how they will play in this El Classico.

Real Madrid is more favourable than Barcelona because; they have played some couple of El classico without Ronaldo and have seen what it looks like.

This El Classico will be the first one without Messi and it can be a big El Classico to help Pedri, Gavi and Ansu Fati to shine and begin their legendary adventure.

Do you remember the first hattrick of Messi in El Classico when he was a teenager player? Ansu Fati can do the same if it is his day and it is Barcelona day.

[poldanmig]

I also avoided betting on Barcelona in this match but they won it well. when Gaya scored in the fifth minute I was very sure valencia would win but it all changed when Fati scored a goal for Barca.

I don't know if Barca will be consistent and can finish in the top 3 of the La Liga standings this season.

In the first half, Barcelona seemed to have difficulty getting out of the pressure, even though they didn't seem to be playing well, but Barcelona game improved a little when Ansu Fati managed to equalize the score and that made their confidence increase again, Even so, I doubt that Barcelona will continue to be able to maintain their stable performance and even I believe that Madrid will be able to beat Barcelona in the El Classico match next week.
If Barcelona performance doesn't improve after January, I think the top 3 is a difficult position for them.

To be honest I feel that only two players will decide the fate of the match.
1-Benzema and
2-Aguero
Whoever plays the better will win the game in my opinion. We already know that both Real and Barca are no more the team to be feared as they were before. But still, it's gonna be a very exciting match. Benzema has been the savior for Madrid this season in literally every game and Barca also seems like they are back on track. Let's see who wins.

El Classico will seem a lot different. It's like a new generation of El Classico. Messi and Ronaldo are no more with Madrid and Barca and this is the time for the young stars to shine. Players like Vinicius, Valverde, Gavi, Fati, Pedri will play a vital role for their respected teams and I'm curious to see who will win this one as both Real and Barca are a lot on their top form recently.
