La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Dzwaafu11]

If the key players are unable to start against Real Madrid in El Clásico, it will be very boring.

This is what I think, after all, El Clasico is a match we always look forward to. If both teams have injury problems, especially to key players, what will they show on the field later? Of course, this will be a normal football match that may not present the usual drama, tension and rivalry because the strength that is fielded is not optimal. I don't know if this is because of the busy schedule or the people involved in maintaining the fitness of the players, what is clear is that currently what is on my mind, I quite hate this increasingly busy schedule.

I have started seeing the same thing that happened to Real Madrid last season because this is almost the same thing. Due to the busy schedule that they had last season, Real Madrid players were prone to injury and were not able to play well last season. For Barcelona, it is also the same thing that is happening right now; they are not performing so well as we all expected due to injuries.

The El Clásico matches are also kind of tough competition with these injuries. Seriously, I don’t think it will be interesting because the clubs won’t be able to challenge each other that much, which will make the competition interesting.

[LUCKMCFLY]

All are predictions, it will not be easy for Madrid to beat Barcelona and beat all the teams in the league. Though Madrid is on the top of the table but I doubt if they will win Barca. Barcelona being the defending champions will like to defend their title. Madrid and Barcelona are in a good shape in the league and the two teams are fighting for the top position of the league.

There is no doubt about it, in fact it's not for nothing, but the game that Madrid played against Atlético was a total disaster They played everything like they did when Ancelotti was in charge , very bad I hope that when they play against Barcelona they don't use that strategy because we would be losing by a landslide That's what I'm thinking, so that it doesn't happen.

One thing you should know is that both team are rivals so what where you expecting, where you expecting Real Madrid to beat atletico Madrid? Well initially I was expecting the same thing because apparently Real Madrid has more form than atletico Madrid so it was supposed to be a win game for Real Madrid but unfortunately there rival changed it for them. History is always history for this clubs and sometimes it  is very difficult to break or change it. I believe Real Madrid has a very big advantage now because most Barcelona key players are injured and so they won't be playing for the moment and so it is time real Madrid pack as much points as possible.

[Sexylizzy2813]

Barcelona is still worried about missing several key players for the upcoming El Clasico due to injury. However, I'm confident that several players will return in time and be ready to perform as expected. El Clasico wouldn't be worth it if either team wasn't playing with their best squad, regardless of whether it's Real Madrid or Barcelona.

Like you, I also believe that Barcelona players' estimated recovery times for injuries aren't always accurate, for various reasons. Coaches also won't force players who have just recovered from an injury to play from the start, that's the quickest way to get them back on the treatment table. But about this one, I think these players still have time for the recovery process and I hope everything is fine.

There's something special about this Barcelona team and I love them for that, in as much as they are having a bad day you'd still see them trying their best to keep pressing and dominating the game and you won't notice that something is wrong with the squad or if someone special isn't in the squad, that's how they are. When they are losing a game you could see every player working as a unit just to make the game turn around for them, that's why I believe them more than I believe Madrid when we talk about the El Clasico, it will forever be all about Barcelona when that day comes, no matter who's injured.
I agree with you, they have more time to recover but I think they won't make their recovery all for the El Clasico because if they do including both the Madrid players, I see them playing to impress and it will damage the way the coaches instructed them to play, it will be better for them to take their time and recover full and play for the team not just for pride.

[$weetne$$]

Mbappe is always needed. Even if he's not in the Getafe match, Xabi Alonso can manage with the remaining squad.
It's more important to wait for Mbappe to recover until the more important match, the one against Real Madrid.
Real Madrid already suffered a significant loss against Atletico Madrid. Now, Xabi Alonso needs to beat Barcelona to prove his worth, and he can't afford to let Mbappe go. Beating Barcelona without Mbappe would be impossible.

Beating Barcelona without mbappe may sound imposing but it actually is,Madrid could be really lucky on that day and mind you they have played a whole season without a striker and still did not fail so they still can this time around if that happens to become necessary. Eventually he will gwt fit and fine and will be back to the team, I know how crucial that game is to them but if Mbappe has not recovered fully by then, it does not stop the match from been played, they just have to play.

This is what I think, after all, El Clasico is a match we always look forward to. If both teams have injury problems, especially to key players, what will they show on the field later? Of course, this will be a normal football match that may not present the usual drama, tension and rivalry because the strength that is fielded is not optimal. I don't know if this is because of the busy schedule or the people involved in maintaining the fitness of the players, what is clear is that currently what is on my mind, I quite hate this increasingly busy schedule.

El Clasico will still be very exciting to watch, even with key players injured on both teams, but the tension between these eternal rivals will remain high on the pitch. I want to see Real Madrid end their poor run against Barcelona, ​​so this meeting will showcase a very strong rivalry between the two teams.

However, if Real Madrid loses, the race for the league table will certainly be more interesting, as both teams will be level on points if they hadn't lost in the ninth round before El Clasico.
This El Clasico will also be Xabi Alonso's first match as Real Madrid manager. Will he succeed in defeating Barcelona, ​​or will he be left in the dust?

[Bitcoin_Arena]

On both sides, Real Madrid and Barcelona have suffered several injuries. For Real Madrid, the majority of these are defenders. Meanwhile, for Barcelona, ​​the number of injured players so far is quite varied, including defenders, midfielders, wingers, and forwards. So, this will be a tough challenge for both sides to perform at their best in El Clasico.

Yes, Barcelona currently has at least eight players injured. And worse, their main forward line is also affected: Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, Dani Olmo, Fermín López, and most recently, Robert Lewandowski. And several of these players are likely to miss the El Clasico match against Real Madrid.

Barcelona Injuries

I read from somewhere that there was a theory stating that some of those players got "injuries" or fake injuries so they go avoid playing for their countries in the international break (where they are more likely to get injured) in order to concentrate on the Barcelona matches. I won't be surprised if I see a number of players on that injury list feature in El Clásico match.

[GiftedMAN]

Mbappe is always needed. Even if he's not in the Getafe match, Xabi Alonso can manage with the remaining squad.
It's more important to wait for Mbappe to recover until the more important match, the one against Real Madrid.
Real Madrid already suffered a significant loss against Atletico Madrid. Now, Xabi Alonso needs to beat Barcelona to prove his worth, and he can't afford to let Mbappe go. Beating Barcelona without Mbappe would be impossible.

Eventually he will gwt fit and fine and will be back to the team, I know how crucial that game is to them but if Mbappe has not recovered fully by then, it does not stop the match from been played, they just have to play.

I don't know how possible Real Madrid can defeat Barcelona without their best player so far Mbappe he's in good form he is the highest goal scorer so far for the league and the team the game would be easier for Real Madrid with him but if before the game he's not back from injury they can play without him but the result may not be a good one. Barcelona is without Yamal also no one knows if he will be back to play the game it's going to be an equal game but Real Madrid should revenge back the humiliation of last season.

[Fara Chan]

From the news online now, says most of Barcelona's starting eleven will be available for selection before the match against Real Madrid this news was released today. I can remember seeing Yamal and Raphinha on the list of those that will be available but I didn't Dani Olmo's name which means as of now his still injured. Lewandowski hasn't been starting games this season for Barcelona. Even Real Madrid has its own list of injuries and we haven't seen news concerning their own been available as we have seen on that of Barcelona. Maybe in the coming days we will see positive news concerning these injuries.

Short-term injuries don't significantly impact the team's overall performance. However, when players who have just recovered from injury are forced to play for 90 minutes, it could lead to players being benched again due to subsequent injuries. Gavi, Olmo, Torres, and Raphinha are all still injured, so even if you see Raphinha on the list for Barcelona's upcoming home match against Girona, it's likely to be for a short time. However, I'm not sure if he will be fielded immediately in the near future because the Barcelona coach also really wants Raphinha to recover fully quickly.

[kriminall]

All are predictions, it will not be easy for Madrid to beat Barcelona and beat all the teams in the league. Though Madrid is on the top of the table but I doubt if they will win Barca. Barcelona being the defending champions will like to defend their title. Madrid and Barcelona are in a good shape in the league and the two teams are fighting for the top position of the league.

Real Madrid made too many defensive errors against Atletico Madrid. I don't think they'll use a similar strategy against Barcelona, ​​but Real Madrid could have an advantage if they're without injured players against Barcelona. The important thing is that Real Madrid plays this match without an injured player. If Mbappé is fit for the match, we could see a very good Real Madrid against Barcelona. I expect both teams to play their best football without injuries.

[Tamaperdana]

If the key players are unable to start against Real Madrid in El Clásico, it will be very boring, because it could be considered unfair and we won't get to see how strong Barcelona is with its core team, especially Dani Olmo, who is a great player at supplying balls to the front line for Lewandowski and his teammates to maximize. He is one of the keys to Barcelona's ability to create more opportunities in the front line. Similarly, Real Madrid also has injured players, but not as many as Barcelona, However, such calculations are usually just estimates. Hopefully, we will witness a miracle in the El Clasico match.

Yes, you're right, if Barcelona's core players can't play against Real Madrid, the match will certainly be a bit boring. Barcelona will certainly be under constant pressure from Real Madrid's attacking line, so I think the competition won't feel as intense. Usually, El Clasico matches are very tight duels between Barcelona and Real Madrid. But judging by the current situation, I don't think this El Clasico match will be like previous El Clasico matches.

So, with that in mind, I think we just need to enjoy the match with the usual tension, where Real Madrid will dominate the match completely. But even so, I personally still hope that the injured Barcelona players can recover quickly. Because basically, if they are injured for too long, Barcelona's performance will definitely decline and they might have difficulty competing in La Liga or the Champions League. Because currently, their main goalkeeper, midfielders, and also wingers are injured. So, of course, this is a truly serious problem for Barcelona.

[Catenaccio]

Real Madrid made too many defensive errors against Atletico Madrid. I don't think they'll use a similar strategy against Barcelona, ​​but Real Madrid could have an advantage if they're without injured players against Barcelona. The important thing is that Real Madrid plays this match without an injured player. If Mbappé is fit for the match, we could see a very good Real Madrid against Barcelona. I expect both teams to play their best football without injuries.

Real Madrid shown their defensive weakness since the last season in big matches when they lost all to Barcelona and with very disappointed big defeat results. Xabi Alonso has improved something in Real Madrid, successfully forcing Mbappe and Vinicius contributing more for defense at the front line but the big defeat by Atletico Madrid is a strong slap for helping Xabi and his players recognizing a painful fact that they are still weak in defense. It's helpful for Real Madrid knowing this in early of season as they still have time and it's not too late for fixing such defensive weakness.

If the key players are unable to start against Real Madrid in El Clásico, it will be very boring, because it could be considered unfair and we won't get to see how strong Barcelona is with its core team, especially Dani Olmo, who is a great player at supplying balls to the front line for Lewandowski and his teammates to maximize. He is one of the keys to Barcelona's ability to create more opportunities in the front line. Similarly, Real Madrid also has injured players, but not as many as Barcelona, However, such calculations are usually just estimates. Hopefully, we will witness a miracle in the El Clasico match.

Not all star players will be able to play in this El Clasico as effects from matches for their national teams. They might be injured even midly or not have good fitness for playing this big match at start or as substitutions. Both Real Madrid and Barcelona are suffered by the international breaks because they are all big clubs and have many star players called for national teams recent days.

Anyway, with any players will be chosen and perform in the El Clasico, it will still surely be a hot match as it is a El Clasico match between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Yes, what else can we do? The European match schedule is currently incredibly busy. I don't know what's causing it to become so congested. But it seems to be due to the ongoing World Cup qualifiers. I think that's what's making this season feel like a more congested schedule, ultimately leading to injuries for many football players, including Barcelona. So, I think the clubs will be the ones to suffer the most. Clubs also have longer match schedules. But if many of their key players are injured, it will certainly make things difficult for them.

And right now, Barcelona is the one experiencing that difficulty. As we know, many of their key players are injured. With that, Barcelona has the potential to perform less than optimally in the El Clasico match against Real Madrid. So, yes, this season might be the opposite of the previous season. Because in the previous season, Real Madrid was hit by a storm of injuries, and ultimately, they lost the El Clasico. And now it's Barcelona's turn to be hit by a storm of injuries. So, with this in mind, Barcelona will certainly be struggling at the moment.

Anyway, with any players will be chosen and perform in the El Clasico, it will still surely be a hot match as it is a El Clasico match between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Every team definitely wants to be able to play with their best squad, but what happens sometimes doesn't go according to plan because anyone can suddenly get injured, and it is inevitable. Injuries are a threat to any team, but for a good team with a reliable coach, they will do their best to prepare for the anticipation, so whatever the situation and conditions, they can still grasp the victory.

El Clasico is a notoriously heated match. So even though both teams may not be able to play with their best squads, I think the match will still be played with high tension. Real Madrid had a poor record when they faced Barcelona last season, but this time they have a chance to hit back, as they have the advantage of playing at home, and Barcelona is not in good form recently.

[ancafe]

You are right. After the international break, Real Madrid players may be tired after contributing for their country and some may be injured. Mbappe was unable to play for his country against Iceland due to injury. If he cannot play against Getafe in the next La Liga match, it will be an unexpected situation for Real Madrid. The players are busy with the World Cup qualifiers. Vinícius and Rodrygo may play for their country and if one of them gets injured, it will have a negative impact on Real Madrid and create an advantageous position for Barcelona.

This might not be a significant issue against Getafe, as other players in the same position can fill in. In fact, I see it as quite problematic if Mbappé is unavailable for Real Madrid's match against Barcelona, ​​as his presence is important in such a crucial match. The international break could impact the team, especially if several key players are injured, and Real Madrid are also struggling defensively due to injuries to several key players, which could impact the team's overall performance against a much more evenly matched opponent.

You can be right, but last season El classico real madrid struggling because there defense was very bad and that is the main reason why Barcelona get more opportunities to defeat Real Madrid in all the competition they played last season. But currently real madrid are in form currently and have new defenders that are very talented and can help the club achieve trophies this season. I don't think  Getafe will be real madrid headache they will definitely achieve three point against Getafe and Mbappe injured was not that bad and he will play for the club this weekend.

When some players are going for international break i always feel scared because he will be very difficult if some of the key players didn't go injured before coming back to the team. They always over play them and that is why injuring always occurred and start struggling to occur and the team will be weak if they is not a key player in a team. Many of Barcelona players are injured currently but I think before the el classico they will be some of them that can be back then because if madrid win the el classico they will be more high rate to win the league title let see how the competition will goes since the league will resume back.

Mbappé is Real Madrid's mainstay in the front line and is currently a goal machine for Real Madrid. Of course, Mbappé's absence from the upcoming El Clasico match will be very impactful. However, this has not been confirmed for certain because the injury Mbappé suffered is not a serious injury, so he will not be out for a long time.
For other matches, or against Getafe this weekend, I don't think Real Madrid will struggle, even if several players are tired and absent due to injury. Overall, Real Madrid's strength is far above Getafe's, so even if Xabi Alonso makes several rotations, it won't be difficult for them.

[HajiBagi]

This is what I think, after all, El Clasico is a match we always look forward to. If both teams have injury problems, especially to key players, what will they show on the field later?

I don't know if this is because of the busy schedule or the people involved in maintaining the fitness of the players, what is clear is that currently what is on my mind, I quite hate this increasingly busy schedule.

The El Classico will always look tough no matter what because both teams are big rivals, Barcelona and Real Madrid matches always look tough even when the key players are not in the match, the injury crisis that happened to Real Madrid last season is about to happen to Barcelona this season, many Barcelona players are injured and some of them are going to miss the El Classico, although some Real Madrid players are also injured, but I think Barcelona own is worse than Real Madrid.

If Real Madrid fails to defeat Barcelona at Satiango Benarbeu, that means Real Madrid players are not serious, this is the perfect time for Real Madrid to exact revenge for what Barcelona did to them last season, I hear some Barcelona fans are complaining about the injury and will use it as a reason for the defeat in the El Classico, but that cannot happen because Real Madrid had the same problem last season and the fans did not complain, I can't wait to watch the match.

[pewboy]

As happened in the case of Real Madrid last season. The weakness of Real Madrid defense was one of the reasons for their defeat. Along with this, there was a lack of proper cooperation between the players on the field. But in the case of Barcelona although there is no lack of cooperation several players are currently in poor form. They need to improve their performance, especially the attacking midfielders who play a leading role in scoring goals.

All the players who play in this category are strong it is obvious, just as it is obvious that there are players who, even if good, are stuck there on the bench waiting to demonstrate their talent
Despite a deep roster of players i dont see Real Madrid stand out this year, i dont know they don't seem very performing even if they played good games.
But despite the good players if the defense doesn't work or part of the team suffers, the whole team suffers.
Barcelona have an excellent squad, but they have a problem as big as a home team, despite the problem of various injuries they handle the pressure and losses well.
Do they have a good chance of recovering?

You can be right, but last season El classico real madrid struggling because there defense was very bad and that is the main reason why Barcelona get more opportunities to defeat Real Madrid in all the competition they played last season. But currently real madrid are in form currently and have new defenders that are very talented and can help the club achieve trophies this season. I don't think  Getafe will be real madrid headache they will definitely achieve three point against Getafe and Mbappe injured was not that bad and he will play for the club this weekend.

When some players are going for international break i always feel scared because he will be very difficult if some of the key players didn't go injured before coming back to the team. They always over play them and that is why injuring always occurred and start struggling to occur and the team will be weak if they is not a key player in a team. Many of Barcelona players are injured currently but I think before the el classico they will be some of them that can be back then because if madrid win the el classico they will be more high rate to win the league title let see how the competition will goes since the league will resume back.

I have experienced the same mini heart-attack feeling when the international break comes. You just know somebody is coming back limping. This was insane: both Lewy and Olmo were missing, Raphinha was still unsure... it is as though the entire front line of Barca went on vacation and never returned. This is why I do not believe that they will be prepared in time to play El Clasico. You do not recreate rhythm in a night, even though some of them come back

Madrid, however, is surprisingly calm. The defence which was torn apart last season now appears to be organized even without half the starters. Carras already has eight games in the league under his belt. And the fact that Mendy returns after 170 days does count. That left balance allows Vini and Mbappe to attack without having to babysit behind

If I am being real, this Clasico is less about revenge and more about timing. Barca is mending holes, Madrid is peaking early. In the past, the winner of the first one proceeds to win the league seven out of the past ten seasons. So should Madrid win it at the Bernabeu, we could be talking title runway before November even arrives
