La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Today, we had a really interesting game between Celta Vigo and Barcelona. It was an away game for Barcelona but they needed an immediate win. Because they couldn't get any win in their last three La Liga games before this one. And Barcelona made a huge start to this game by bringing the score to 3-0 in the first half already. After seeing this, I thought that they would win and get a really solid result also. But somehow, Celta Vigo made a spectacular comeback in the second half and the game ended by 3-3. It was one of the delightful games in terms of watching 6 goals but it was a nightmare for Barcelona for sure.

Barcelona have won 3 goals and this has shown its performance that a win without a few main players is still doing a good game, I think this could be an easy win for Barcelona if you look at the statistics, they have more control and play better than under Ronald Koeman .
Many despise Barca maybe because before they were not strong against other teams but the fact is there are some injured players but today they can be consistent.

They scored 3 goals in the first half but Celta scored 3 goals in the second half. The interesting fact is that Celta scored their third goal at the near end of the match. Currently Barcelona is at 9th position in the league table. Barcelona is no longer a strong team as they used to be. I believe no one imagined that the match will end as a draw (while Barcelona was having a 3 goals lead).

For Barcelona to score three goals in the first half and concede three more goals, it simply has to do with the midfield and defense which needs proper handling,at most the defense.
The attacking players has done enough to score goals, defending is now a problem for them ?
Xavi will be here and improve all of that.

Even after the win in the champions league,Barcelona is still unable to win in the laliga even after leading 0-3.Honestly what a big comeback by Celta Vigo many people lost their bets yet again on Barcelona and now after an insane comeback.Xavi will have a lot of work trying to get this team to play a lot better.

If you think 3 goals in the first half have made Barcelona win this match then I think you are wrong. The second half was dominated by Celta Vigo where at this time they had scored 2 goals and now the score to 2-3. Barcelona's defense in the second half was very poor especially Lenglet and if this continues then Barcelona will probably lose or at least draw.

~snip~

Finally ended in a draw, it's disappointing to have been 3 points ahead. A good performance in the first half was not followed in the second half. They scored three goals in the first half. It looked like Barca were too quick to settle, they weren't serious in the second half. In addition Celta Vigo were good in the second half they put pressure on Barcelona. Even Barca's defence was very poor in the second half, lucky they didn't lose.

WOW, what a crappy team BARCA has became! Really disappointing. Keep changing the manager doesn't seem to be the solution. It is the team's individual and overall performance that is going south. In particular the defense. I am not sure how Xavi can help to bring the team back to where is era was. Barcelona should let Marc-André ter Stegen and other aging players leave. Xavi has  big problem if he keeps Stegen as the first choice keeper. Its time to test Neto. T

Although not aka a draw, the result is very unsatisfactory for those who are being threatened in the league next season. No longer have hope except to give more scores. Rank 9 does not make Barcelona safe.

Errors are created when the Barcelona players feel they already have points. The second half should have been better, not worse.

barcelona performed well in the first half but in the second half they seemed to have lost their way.
their defenders don't seem to communicate well so 3 goals can be scored by the celta vigo players.
On the other hand last minute goals are comebacks and goals are the most dramatic here.
apart from that, Aspas played very brilliantly and I think he is suitable as a MOTM in this match

Lol, Looks like you are wrong again  
There is a saying that goes that, "It's not over until it over" For you, you already counted a win even before the second half was complete. Did you see that comeback by Celta Vigo?  

Well, I guess you now know why many of us despise Barcelona this season.

It was always obvious that barcelona wanted Xavi and Xavi wanted Barcelona and that is why this news is not a real shock.

However, al-sadd didn't want him to go and Xavi had situation where he wasn't sure if this was the right time. After all Barcelona is doing bad and this means that there will be a lot of problem for Xavi right now and he could have the team play as good as it can get but the roster may still fail and not make anything worthy. I do not know what to expect from this but I hope that he has the success Zidane had with Real, that would make Barcelona go back to the old gold times but it is required to have some good players as well.

I really did not even have a look at this game because i thought they would continue on a trail of losses like in the past...but seeing Barca win again could spark a chain of more wins to come from here on out....I hope this wasn't a protest win to get Ronald Koeman fired as players have the power to underperform to get their coach fired. Bravo boys and welcome back, hope coach Xavi breaks some records and brings more silverware for the team.

al-sadd didn't want to get rid of Xavi, but took advantage of the situation, the purchase of the new Barcelona coach was the eighth most expensive in history, something that is not very well regarded by many critics given the current economic situation of the team.

I really hope that Xavi can do a good job with the few resources he has, as new hires right away is probably out of the question for club officials.

Specifically with regard to Xavi, the most important problem is not the young age, but the lack of experience in leading a team in more competitive leagues. With all due respect to the Qatar championship, it is still probably not the level of the top European championships to which the Spanish championship still belongs.

He may have a lack of experience as a coach. But as a player, he was a lot of experience in leading his teammates to win many matches in varied top football competitions. I think it can be one of his sources to develop his strategy in rebuilding the performance of Barcelona players. I am optimistic that Xavi has the ability to be a successful coach in Barcelona. Why not? Anyway, don't underestimate Qatar championship, it is also a competitive league although it is not as big as La Liga.

Real Madrid 2-1 Rayo Vallacano . Real Madrid won today bearly in the end,after leading 2-0 they conceded a goal and again Falcao scored for Rayo Vallacano and in 93th minute Rayo Vallacano had a big chance that Tony Kross kicked the ball of the line in the last minute and saved Real Madrid.Real Madrid is currently at the top of the table with 27 points.

Well at least Xavi should get some time to adapt he can't suddenly become a savior he must understand the character of each player
Just look at them at half-time 3-0 to Barcelona and chaos comes in the second half something needs to be fixed there one of them is defense
In this case Xavi needs to get the players he wants in defence.

You know the main problem?The main problem isn't from the defense,it is from the medics,they don't have good medical workers that can treat and see to the welfare of injured players.
Take a look at what happened today,Ansu fati and two other players are injured then out of a squad of 26 players,we have 11 players on injury and these players happen to be key players,so how do they cope?
I think he should facilitate their private hospitals first,such for quick recovery of any player that goes on injury before he thinks of buying or repositioning players

[Prince Malik]

Finally Barcelona was able to score more than one goal, 3 goals in the first half but wait this is not all, Barcelona wasted the 3 points in the second half with a dramatic scenario after 3 goals from celta scored in the 52, 74 and 96 minute
A very bad situation for Barcelona right now

Real Madrid is the most stable team in La Liga. Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are far behind than Real Madrid. Sevilla is playing very well. They have played 1 match less than Real Madrid and are only 3 points behind. Sevilla do not seem to be able to compete for the title. Because as we have seen in previous seasons, Sevilla lose form at the end of the season and they fall behind. If Atletico Madrid want to go to the top of the table, they need to score 3 points from all the upcoming matches.

I am not sure Celta Vigo can win and come back after loss three goals on first half, I think the mentality of Celta Vigo player will down after Barcelona success defeat and lead 3-0 on the first half, but amazing come back and Celta Vigo success made three goals on second half. Bad way again for Barcelona never winning almost three match before after defeat by Real Madrid on clasico, then Barcelona just getting lost again from Rayo Vallecano and draw with Alaves, from four match before Barcelona only success get two points only and bad start I think.

Now Real Madrid will sit comfortably at the top of the la Liga table.
Falcao has always been the only player to score a goal against Real Madrid when he's team plays with them.
No game comes with luck,this is football Madrid pressed really hard to secure this win

I literally knew Rayo Vallecano won't be able to win against Real Madrid in an away match. Because, Real Madrid doesn't fail when it comes to their home match, and they haven't so far lost any of their home matches. But, no doubt, Vallecano tried their best. It was probably one of the most interesting game yesterday. Real Madrid are always cooperative in their match, which results to them winning. I think they are going to spend a long time in the 1st position on the standings.
