La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Benzema becomes savior for real madrid ,what happens if he handsome guy is out for 2 weeks and comes back to play? I think he performance will be unstable as more and more silence is not good for her instincts but I hope he comes back fit and perfect ! he's one of my favorite people in elreal ^{for the team I think it's safe because maybe it can defense until he comes back}

A break of 2 weeks is practically nothing for a professional footballer, so I would not exaggerate the significance of this temporary nuisance. Real Madrid have a great squad and they can easily hold out for a couple of weeks without him, and it seems to me that Vinicius is ready to take the place of the main striker, let's see how he will show himself in the next games.

It was so unexpected what be feel the French international yesterday. Haven't left the pitch within the early 20 minutes of the game. I would have said the same thing, as time outs (be it international breaks or injury as is the case) always lives players with the struggle of catching up with the rhythm of the team but, I don't think it's going to  be so with Karem. 2 weeks isn't such a long time.  Without him on the pitch, Real Madrid still delivered a beautiful performance and bagged all 3 points. Vinicious Jr. has become such a phenomenal player and his confidence is way up with Rodrigo too. I enjoyed there play yesterday.

What is really shocking is how much the dominance of the big three, namely Barcelona, Madrid and Atletico, seems to be lost. Yes Madrid is leading the table, but this absolute dominance where nobody had a chance to beat them except for Atletico or Barcelona seems to be a thing of the past. Even Atletico loses unbelievable games. Their defense also is not what it used to be anymore. Madrid will make it this year, but to be honest they aren't really having a serious contender at the moment. Atletico usually concedes that many goals in a whole season.

Benzema is indeed a very big contribution to Real Madrid, because Benzema sometimes scores important goals for Real Madrid. I doubt Real Madrid
can beat Inter in the Champions League without Benzema, Real Madrid will have a hard time winning without Benzema. It's really interesting to see
Real Madrid play without Benzema, although there is still Vinicius Junior who is also a goal machine besides Benzema. But so far Benzema's role
in Real Madrid's front line is bigger, I was curious to see how Real Madrid played against Inter without Benzema. Because I'm not sure that Luka Jovic
can play well against Inter, who is likely to play as a substitute for Benzema. Indeed, Luka Jovic scored a goal against Real Sociedad, but Luka
Jovic's performance was very inconsistent.

Benzema is not only a goal machine in Real Madrid. But him been on the Field always boost the morale of other players. I can't imagine Real Madrid playing in the Champion League without him, the match will be super tough for them to win. Benzema have played a major role in Real Madrid been the leader of La Liga and also the leader of Group D in the CL. Jovic scored a goal against Real Sociedad, which is probably he first goal this season. Anyway, Let watch and see how Madrid plays against Inter on Tuesday.

Real madrid again cut the distance with sevilla, real madrid can smile widely because last night managed to get 3 points, real madrid has a great chance to become champion of the spanish league this year, barcelona last night lost 3 points, this will be a crushing blow for xavi, because if xavi unable to bring barcelona to position 4 standings at the end of the season, Xavi will most likely be expelled from the coach.

I think Barcelona will be able to end the season in the first four positions with Real Madrid and Sevilla +/- ATM. A defeat in Xavi debut isn't a bad thing but should be a warning for the team to play better in the upcoming events.
Now Real Madrid is running away a bit from the others, 8 points but Sevilla still lacks 1 more game, otherwise the difference between the other clubs is very tight and every point drop is equal to a spot drop.

Xavi finally got his first loss ever. It was expected of them to lose eventually, not like Xavi could have kept them undefeated, but I really didn't expected it to be this game at all. Sure Betis is third after this result, ATM will probably pass them but that is still fourth and they look good, but Barcelona was the type of team that won against everyone, doesn't matter if you were 3rd or 20th because they always won.

Xavi is a great manager and he certainly made the team a better one after Koeman was so horrible, but it is still nowhere close to Barcelona level that we are used to, without some roster changes it is clear to me that they will not recover and get better.

Real Madrid's victory with their last 5 matches without losing shows their streak to continue to lead by 39 points away from Sevilla who are following less than 8 points. Meanwhile, Atletico themselves are increasingly overwhelmed by their opponents. Besides that, Barcelona, which is still developing, was held back by only 1 goal from Betis yesterday.

in Real Madrid's front line is bigger, I was curious to see how Real Madrid played against Inter without Benzema. Because I'm not sure that Luka Jovic

That is one of the things that the presence of Benzema will show that Real Madrid's performance is more complete. The adjustments made by the coach have been quite good and without Benzema it is a challenge whether they can play with a positive void that makes it easier for opposing players to penetrate the Real Madrid defense. Considering Inter is one of the clubs that is quite dangerous for Real Madrid later.

I am aware of the analysis, but my conclusion kind of even hurts. You remember the times when both Madrid and Barcelona won 12 games in a row and even single loss could have been decisive for the title? Those were times where I was following La Liga closely. Right now I am not even watching any games anymore.

[Yogee]

Great week for Real Madrid while their previous rivals Atletico Madrid and Barcelona fall. Soon their lead at the top will be in double digits if they continue to grind wins like this.

Barca is out of the title contention already and I don't think Real Betis or Sevilla can keep their place in the top four.

After yesterday's win against Real Sociedad with lost of Barcelona against Betis at home and Atlético Madrid against Mallorca at home Real Madrid is clearly leading table with 5 points it's very good from them and with this win now they are strong contenders for winning this year's title because all other opponents struggling, but they have 100% record at home and away games recently. As they are going to add some more attacking players in coming January transfer window this could be great for their game plan as right now many teams struggling, but they have very good time in La Liga and Champions League title race.
 
In today game Benzema sudden exit creating some rumors, but hopefully all will be clear for play and team as now they are heading for their next challenge in Champions League.

Benzema had to be sent off early against Real Sociedad, playing only 17 minutes Benzema was replaced by Luka Jovic and Madrid are yet to confirm whether their captain Karim Benzema will miss the Champions League match this weekend. Of course, it is very detrimental for Madrid if they have to lose their top scorer Benzema, especially since he has been able to perform quite well this season by contributing 12 goals in La Liga.

It was an unfortunate injury to a man in good form but it's all part of the sport. Benzema will likely miss their match in the Champion's League against Inter but I don't think it's a real concern since they are already qualified for the next round. He'll most likely play a more crucial match which is against Atletico Madrid next weekend.

The news reports that Benzema was out for 2 weeks. Well if so - this season he is extremely productive and it will be difficult for Real Madrid without him.

Benzema becomes savior for real madrid ,what happens if he handsome guy is out for 2 weeks and comes back to play? I think he performance will be unstable as more and more silence is not good for her instincts but I hope he comes back fit and perfect ! he's one of my favorite people in elreal ^{for the team I think it's safe because maybe it can defense until he comes back}

My concern is that Real Madrid won't be able to beat the atletico and the game will end in a draw, that's because without benzema that surprise factor of scoring a goal in critical moments they won't have it. I think that Real Madrid will lose points with this absence of benzema, we will see in this game against the atletico

[kawetsriyanto]

There should be a chance for Real Madrid to defeat Atletico, especially since the match will be held in Bernabeu. Even without Benzema, doesn't mean the chance to win 0 (zero), it is only a hope made by opposite fans.    Don't underestimate other attackers of Real Madrid, they still have Vinícius and Asensio, these attackers performed well enough lately. If Benzema is injured, I assume Carlo Ancelotti will release Vinícius, Asensio, and Jovic as the starting attackers. This is not a too bad option, still can win the match for sure.

Based on the available statistics, it also shows that Real Madrid's chances of winning are still above 40% this is due to the absence of players like Benzema, while 28% for Atletico Madrid which may still be lacking before they see how Real Madrid play without Benzema. Therefore, Real Madrid still has the chance to win, we hope that even without Benzema, Real Madrid will be able to balance their opponents.

[Gosgosking]

Despite Barcelona lose I still believe they will come up strong again. Barcelona is a good team , the problem of Barcelona maybe the playing formation is not good enough.

Yes we can not say that real madrid cannot beat atletico madrid. Yes thats would not be easy but surely they have a chance to defeat atletico madrid. Yes I am not expecting a high scoring match but I am expecting that real madrid will beat atletico madrid with a scoreline of 1-0. I am placing bets at goals under 2.5 and on real madrid win.
It would be a good game and will be an intense game between these two teams for sure

Yep, that's right. because indeed they now have a good enough chance to show athletico especially they are now with a pretty good performance and if I'm not mistaken, Benzema's hamstring injury is predicted to heal before this match takes place.
So even though Athletico is a pretty strong team, Real Madrid can make something interesting in this match

Despite Barcelona lose I still believe they will come up strong again. Barcelona is a good team , the problem of Barcelona maybe the playing formation is not good enough.

this is a tough task that must be completed by XAVI, but yeah I also believe that Barca will be a team that goes back to where they belong. Barca and Atletico are teams that have dominated the Spanish league several times, next season will definitely be a fierce competition again for the three big teams.

Xavi Hernandez is currently in charge of the transfer window, handling who comes in and goes outta the club, At the end of the day Barcelona will sure come back to it's best self.
This might take time,cost time points,loss game's of which they have started,but they'll sure get back them feet once more.

I think that Xavi is still a temporary coach. And in the future there will be another one, who is most likely invited to at least somehow smooth out the negative from the bad situation in Barcelona. He's a legend and fans won't be critical of his failures. The situation in Barcelona is critical and it takes a lot of time to sort out all the problems, it may take 2, maybe 3 years.

Do you think the game will end 0-0? In my opinion Real Madrid should score a couple of goals, but I'm not at all sure that Atletico will be able to score the same - in the last games they have been playing terribly. I think that the odds from the bookmakers accurately reflect the situation at the moment, but I tend to bet on the victory of Real:‍
2,17 - 3,45 - 3,45

Since Sergio Ramos left, the substitute figure to raise the morale of players on the field is Benzema. So it's true that Benzema's role is not only
a goal-scoring machine for Real Madrid, but bigger than that. Several times Benzema was seen encouraging his teammates to be able to win
the match. In fact, since the start of the season, Benzema was played too many times in the 90 minutes of the game  and that's a risk of injury
if we look at Real Madrid's busy schedule. It was true that Benzema ended up getting injured and it was confirmed that he would not be able
to play against Inter in the Champions League. And there is also the possibility of missing when Real Madrid against Atletico. This is clearly
very detrimental to Real Madrid, where Benzema's impressive performance is one of the keys to Real Madrid's success this season. So I believe
Real Madrid will find it difficult to face Inter or Atletico without Benzema.

I think it is Xavi who can determine which players are needed by Barcelona, ​​but still the absolute decision lies with the club management in determining whether to buy or not the players proposed by Xavi, with Barcelona current financial condition, I think Barcelona will not be too active to buy players in January, maybe they will only prioritize players who may act as strikers to replace messi.
Currently barcelona is in a transitional position and of course they need time to be able to restore their former glory again.
