La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Agree. The crisis in Barcelona is basically caused by the financial problem, so Barcelona cannot sign an ideal player to replace Messi. Also, we must remember that Messi moved to PSG because Barcelona has no solution to deal with Messi's salary. It is also caused by financial problem, right? However, as a top coach, Koeman must manage Barcelona to achieve a better position on the table, not as the current position at 9th. All people must agree that 9th isn't acceptable even Barcelona is in a bad situation.

I felt that at that time Koeman was in a difficult and unprofitable position, on the other hand he was required to be able to improve Barcelona's performance after Messi left Barcelona, on the other hand the condition of their players could not be called complete because apart from the chaotic economic conditions of Barcelona, they are also faced with several injured players and this makes them even more down.
on the other hand, as you said it's definitely the coaches who will be at fault when this happens, because at least they have a scapegoat to blame.

Let Koeman go and let's greet Xavi with passion. It looks like Koeman didn't manage to lead Barcelona up the way many Barcelona fans had hoped. Even so, Xavi needs to overhaul what Barcelona lacked during Koeman's stint as a bad coach.

I think now for Xavi it is also uncertain with Barcelona at this time it is true that the Barcelona legend has become President Joan Laporta's main target to replace the vacant team manager seat which is currently filled temporarily by Sergi Barjuan.
but there is still no full agreement on this and indeed Barcelona are known to have to pay Xavi Hernandez's release clause in advance from his current club Al Sadd SC at a fee of 5 million euros if they are to sign Xavi quickly and this is becoming difficult for Barcelona

An unexpected win today for cadiz against bilbao after aseven games streak without a win, they played a really good first half with  more goal attempts and 4 shots on target but in the second half everything changed and it was a total domination from bilbao 12 goal attepts with 4 on target and more than 75% possesion, it was bad luck for bilbao after such a good game it was unfortunate to lose points.

I have high expectations for bilbao in this match because statistically they are very superior.
but here's a football game anything can happen.
I was impressed with Cadiz's defense in this match because indeed they continued to be heavily battered by the bilbao players but they were so strong and their concentration was not damaged by the bilbao attack.
because if you look at this match, after a quick goal from Sanchez, they only focused on defending and occasionally counter-attacking

My predictions for this weekend Laliga games
Celta Vigo Vs Barcelona: 1-2

I don't know about this one, Barcelona are not in a good form and on top of that they have a lot of injured players, I would be surprised if they managed to beat Celta vigo tomorrow, Barca can save it and go out with a draw, but there is a possibility that Celta vigo can beat them, but I am leaning more into a draw.

I think Barcelona still not on the top perform although become debut and first match for Xavi Hernande become new manager for Barcelona but still with the same player. I predict this match prefer Celta Vigo can win about score 2-1. I don't see any impact with new manager Xavi on Barcelona because not any potential player have in Barcelona right now. Will see what score getting on the first debut with new coach can Barcelona become on the top performance again or keep the same keep loss or draw only.

I also believe Xavi needs an adjustment to the current line-up in the Barca team. But at least this first game will be a reference for the development of tactics and game schemes from Barca until the end of this season.
I hope at least the arrival of Xavi will provide interesting gameplay for Barca. You bet for Celta Vigo, and I will the other way around. Barca will probably force the hosts to share points or win narrowly by 1 goal.

I think now for Xavi it is also uncertain with Barcelona at this time it is true that the Barcelona legend has become President Joan Laporta's main target to replace the vacant team manager seat which is currently filled temporarily by Sergi Barjuan.
but there is still no full agreement on this and indeed Barcelona are known to have to pay Xavi Hernandez's release clause in advance from his current club Al Sadd SC at a fee of 5 million euros if they are to sign Xavi quickly and this is becoming difficult for Barcelona

Indeed, someone had to be paid dearly to bring in Xavi as well as a form of his seriousness in establishing a good relationship when Barcelona wanted to perform more optimally. I feel Barcelona's struggle to get Xavi didn't expect it to go this far. Just for the sake of replacing the coach, there are many things that must be considered. While at a later date the results can not be seen. In addition to the expensive transfer fees, of course in the end expectations for Xavi will be a big burden.

Barcelona must pay about 5 million euros for previous Xavi Hernandez club Al Sad, bad situation for Barcelona because much out come right now for getting new coach, after pay compensation for Ronald Koeman with higher value now they need to pay 5 million euros to get Xavi Hernandez, will Barcelona can talk more under Xavi and bring back tiki taka style? lets see first debut against Celta Vigo, but I less hope because Xavi less experience on Europe club and I think most different quality with his previous club before.

Hopefully it won't be a wasted payment for Barcelona's fight for Xavi and their club's reputation. That's how all clubs hunt for the best coaches, despite the fact that it must return to the qualities of each player. The coach is only an intermediary because the execution scores back in accordance with what the coach applies to the dexterity of the front, middle and back players who must trust each other.

This is one of the clauses that can't be avoided when they insist on recruiting Xavi because of course Alsaad doesn't want to compromise on this.
on the other hand this will worsen the barcelona economy which is now on the verge of collapse.
but if maybe they are stuck with the decision they made to sign xavi, they have to be willing to gamble there and hope xavi will make this team better than it is now with limited money and players who are still in the level of injury prone storms

I believe the updated news is that Barcelona and Xavi are splitting the amount for his release clause, and now he’s officially confirmed as their coach. Also Xavi is not a fluke manager and mark my words if he’s given the time and funds he’ll transform Barcelona like they were seen under Pep.

Cekta Vigo are Barcelona's Catalians brothers,will the visitors get three points ?
Celta Vigo will fight to the end, wanting bragging rights here,the visitors has a whole lot to fix up in the team, and I don't think Xavi's handling the game already.
Gola with result at both ends of the game, not too sure if the winner here.

[condoras]

I really wish your words come true and Xavi to be proven better than Pep (or any other great coach) but to be honest, I have lots of doubts.
Pep starts from Barcelona B and has been there for a year before taking over the 1st squad, which by the way, has at that time a 21 years old star called Messi among others...
Xavi is the easiest (and cheapest) solution for Barca's bench. Nobody can blame him if doesn't make it this season, he doesn't have any demands regarding the squad or the budget, and he can be proven a "jackpot" coach. For me, the main thing is this: Barca's management wants to invest in a manager who will build a team whatever that means, or do they want to gamble with anybody each season until they get lucky?

The recent performance of Barcelona is very weak. They can't play well. But I don't think Barcelona will make any mistake in today's match. They will win today. Will Xavi be on the field today as a coach? My guess today is that Barcelona will give him the gift of victory on the occasion of Xavi's debut. I am optimistic about today's victory of Barcelona.

Pep and Xavi are different individuals matter less of the fact that they played the same club side.
Pep had a different perspective of looking at Barcelona's problem and how to solve it, besides Barcelona wasn't so bad like they are presently,they were on form then just that they needed a little improvement.
Xavi is coming to the team when it has already fallen,without the greatest player, with an imbalanced game play and defense, old players are getting weak and can't perform as before,everything is almost falling apart and barcelona is not among top 3,can you imagine that? Then they are expecting Xavi to come and Perform aMiracle 
Well lets see what happens

I think celta will win ,well I fans barcelona but the previous game was really bad ,meanwhile there are a lot of injured players like : Aguero , Braithwaite , Pedri , Pique and Dembele ! looks like it won't strengthen today's match ,there is no further news xavi will be beside the team today will be a surprise maybe

thank you friend for including a valid source and I just read the news about this.
I'm now pretty sure and calm enough with the xavi update that it's not just a rumor anymore.
With this in mind I began to think that he would bring Barcelona back to the path they had believed a few years ago.
maestro tiki taka is now in barcelona and now they have to focus again on this tactic because this characteristic has been lost this season

[Newlifebtc]

Espanyol doing what they do could do at all cost to win this match.... double golas coming from the home side.
Excellent Defensive plays after scoring from the home side,they have shown full strength and eagerness to win,they deserve this win.
It's 2 goals to nil....few seconds until the referee blows for the final whistle.

Either Celta will win or it will be a draw. Normally Barcelona players playing badly. So we shouldn't expect a win from them while some of their players are injured. Though there is a good difference between the odds of 1×2 market. And it is in favour of Barcelona. But I also think that FCB might loss the game.

Both teams have played quite badly this season, but we have to admit that Barcelona is clearly still superior to celta vigo, from the head to head that exists between celta and barcelona so far, barcelona wins more often against celta, So I think the match against celta can so it will be an opportunity for barcelona to get points later.
My prediction is that Barcelona will win with a score of 1-2 in this match.

Barcelona is really weak - despite the fact that Celta is extremely poor this season, the odds of winning Barcelona are very high:
3,70 - 3,50 - 2,05
Odds of 2 to win against a very weak team sounds like easy money, but Barcelona has let down those who believed in it many times this season.
updated
‍Barcelona scored a goal quickly but even now the odds are really good:
8,75 - 4,90 - 1,40

The big hopes of all Barcelona fans being placed on Xavi shoulders is a pretty tough task. So if indeed the Barcelona era has begun, it means that Xavi has a lot of things to improve and as much as possible catch up. Is that possible? I personally think it's Xavi adaptation first before hoping for a Barcelona revival. But matching between Xavi and Barcelona players is the most important thing to pay attention to first.

It will take time for Xavi to get the team back at a good level, just like the story of Manchester City when sheikh Mansour bought it. Barcelona performance is not good after being left by Lionel Messi. The presence of Xavi in ​​the chair of Barcelona head coach is a big hope for the Barcelona board and superter to bring Barcelona back to glory, moreover Xavi became the brain of the Tiki-taka game when Guardiola was still Barcelona coach.

Barcelona impressing my eyes already, I expected a hard game here but they're finally showing they're the boss amongst the catalians neighbors.
It's two goals already,and the first half is no where near finished.
Fati and Busquet on this one.
