La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Anguwa]

This Real Madrid and Barcelona tie is supposed to have two keyplayers to watch out for. Karim Benzema and Aubameyang but sadly, Benzema has been ruled out. He has had a direct hand in more goals than any other player in Europe's top leagues this season. It's just a shame Madrid won't be having his services tonight but they are still lucky to have Vinicius Jnr who's getting more better every game. The Barcelona's team have their main man Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who has scored 7 goals so far for the team, this Barcelona team is stronger going into this match so I will give a narrow win against Madrid.

As usual Elclasico games are always tough, so we hope for a tougher one today as Barcelona has taking a step further in their performance by signing new players during the transfer windows that are now the main players that always lead the team to victory. The Real Madrid side are also on form as Vinicius Jr is always improving and the team are well equipped and are ready to compete. I predicted the match over 2.5 because I know we will see plenty goals tonight.

The El Clasico is very near us now. It is tomorrow and it is surely going to be very competitive too.

Can't wait for the EL Classico. Is it still the same as it used to be when there was CR7 and Messi?
EL Classico became a legendary elite match. Playing well doesn't necessarily win, and playing bad doesn't necessarily mean you lose in El Classico. Because they were both a giant club at that time with various powers possessed by each team. Their games are always good and interesting, only the number of goals that distinguishes and makes them a winner.

Will it be the same right now?
Btw, I heard that Benzema will not be in the lineup for this El Classico because he is experiencing calf injury

It looks like Benzema is really not going to play in this El Clasico. And after this was announced, Real Madrid's winning odd increased more. Benzema is the most crucial player for the team. He is their main source for scoring goals in this season in the end. Without him, they would surely have bigger difficulties in this very tough game. Barcelona can see this as an opportunity but Real Madrid are still very strong. And they have Vinicius Junior who is another deadly player for their opponents. I hope to watch a great game.

[JeWay]

Madrid's game against Barcelona will start in a few minutes but I really don't like the formation that Madrid are using at the moment. They used a 4-1-4-1 formation and made Rodrygo the spearhead there.
I think it will be quite difficult to score goals but on the plus side they can exploit the midfield easily in my opinion.
Actually I prefer to see them use a 4-3-3 formation with Asensio and Vinicius on the wings

Soon we will see the first half, Yes as we know Benzema can't play because of an injury. without Benzema will Madrid be able to beat Barcelona, ​​which is in an unbeaten trend in the last 12 matches. Aubameyang will be a mainstay of bercelona up front will he be able to score goals?

[minairia3]

Real Madrid and Barcelona have equal chances (50:50) to win El Clasico. Because both teams are in their best performance, the quality of the players they have almost the same.  Carlo Ancelotti and Xavi Hernandez will instruct their players to show their best form, because both coaches know the team they is facing are very strong.
Ahead of the El Clasico, Real Madrid is confirmed without the injured Karim Benzema after leading his team to a 3-0 win over Mallorca. Benzema's injury is a loss for Real Madrid, because Benzema is the most prolific player in scoring goals.

Real madrid should not underestimate Barcelona even though the visitors have a bad record every time they met Real Madrid, because Barcelona has a good capital recently. Barcelona is unbeaten in 12 straight La Liga match. The possibility of El Clasico this time will end in a draw.

Benzema has become a very significant player for Real Madrid and it will not be easy without him, but Real Madrid plays at home and this is an advantage, since Real Madrid lost at home for the last time back in 2021 and it was a Champions League match with Sheriff. So the Real Madrid home series is very good. Barcelona are also in good shape and are scoring a lot of goals. Real Madrid with a handicap (0) is like reinsurance if there is a draw, since I don’t really believe in Barcelona’s victory. But such confrontation is always difficult to predict.

Benzema has been instrumental for Real Madrid this season no  doubt ; he has been involved in important comebacks for the team. Benzema's effect in Real Madrid at moment can be likely to that Ronaldo when they had him. Incredible through and through but I think Real Madrid can still win games without him but they will struggle to do that.

Even though Barcelona is a really good team right now and is scoring a lot more goals compared to the start of this season I still think that Real Madrid is better than Barcelona, at least the current Barcelona squad.

And the home ground is certainly going to give them an advantage. Now I will hope that Barcelona will be able to win this match and prove that they are not an easy opponent for anyone. But I think it will be really hard for them to achieve.

[Swordsoffreedom]

I don't know who will win the El Clasico tonight, but Barca have not won Real in their last 6 matches... Bookmakers are also favouring Real, with odds of 2.3, which is quite high, and 3.3 for Barcelona... I'd like Barca to win tonight because they need to pick up points to catch up with Atletico and Sevilla, while Real are still in first place in the standings...

Real Madrid is in a comfortable position in the league. If they get 1 point from the match today, it will not be a bad result for them. I don't think they need to take the risk. With a patient game, they can play by waiting for Barcelona to make a mistake. Barcelona will be the team that should take risks in this match. It's not easy to take risks when playing against Real Madrid. I wonder what kind of game we will watch. If both teams prefer a controlled game, we can watch less goals in the match.

If Barcelona is actually the one who will press higher in this match I am actually going to be a little surprised because I am hoping that Barcelona will play a lot more defensive in this match. because I think they know that Real Madrid is obviously a better team than them.

I would like to see if Barcelona can defend properly in this match. The match is currently ongoing with 8" playtime and I am really excited to see this El Clasico. If Barcelona actually manages to defeat Real Madrid with this squad I am surely going to give Xavi a lot of credit for that.

Sevilla 0 - 0 Real Sociedad

even if real madrid lost in today's game against real madrid, real madrid would still have a 10 point advantage, and this result of the sevilla game is something fantastic. but if real madrid also manages to draw or win in this game against barcelona then we will be a good step away from becoming champions.


Real Madrid 0 - 0 Barcelona

the game started

[Tony116]

Cadiz - Villarreal game today was really awkward I think. Because I was seeing Villarreal as the closest team to the victory in this game. But Cadiz dominated the game from the beginning to the end and won it by 1-0 as well. Maybe this was because Villarreal were still keeping their minds busy about the huge victory over Juventus in the Champions League. And they wanted to give themselves a break here. But I don't think that this would be a sensible thing as they are fighting for a spot in one of the European tournaments now.

It makes sense that Villarreal has a bigger target to qualify for the Champions League. After all, their opponent was a club strong enough for them to beat. It will not be easy to make Bayern under the control of Villarreal. But speaking of the future, if Villarreal can really show an outstanding performance in La Liga, of course against Bayern will be more confident.

In addition, the decline began to be seen from the match that Sevilla played this time against Real Sociedad which did not produce a single goal. The last-minute of half-time was not very favorable for Sevilla and most likely Barcelona was very happy with this goalless result.

Cadiz actually played well in this match I have to say. But to be honest Villarreal missed some chances where they had a nice buildup but they could not produce the perfect end product. And that obviously cost them the match. Cadiz He's going to be really happy to win this match because now they are out of the relegation zone, they will be hoping to keep things that way. And obviously, Villareal is going to concentrate on the bigger task at hand which is the UEFA Europa League.

[jostorres]

Sevilla are going to have a home match today against Real Sociedad. And there are a few minutes left for the match to begin. Sevilla are going to be my favourite team here to be victorious. They are stil having a solid season even though Real Madrid have left them behind too far. They are going to finish the season in top 3 most probably as it seems. But they need to target getting a victory on all of the remaining weeks from now on. Otherwise, Barcelona are likely to get past them. I think today Sevilla will win.

Sevilla's nightmare is on and today again at home they lost 2 very important points against Real Sociedad with this result now most chances they will lose their this second spot and will drop to fourth with both teams Atlético Madrid and Barcelona are doing very impressive job for staying at top behind leaders Real Madrid.

Sevilla was in very good form from start of this season with most chances they were favorite for having this second spot but sadly recently in last five matches they lost 8 points and other teams having their all points is hurting them very badly. Now after break they are going to face Barcelona which is also going to be big challenge for them because with current form Barcelona can beat them at home.

He has had a direct hand in more goals than any other player in Europe's top leagues this season. It's just a shame Madrid won't be having his services tonight but they are still lucky to have Vinicius Jnr who's getting more better every game. The Barcelona's team have their main man Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who has scored 7 goals so far for the team, this Barcelona team is stronger going into this match so I will give a narrow win against Madrid.

The first 15 minutes have been played and we have already seen 6 scoring chances. The powerplay is very high and if it continues, then the first goal will happen. Both goalkeepers are strong, that's why the score is still 0:0.

[judas]

It must be sad for Real Madrid not having Karim Benzema in El Clasico now. He is still injured and Rodrygo has filled his place for this game. This is an important amount of power loss for Real Madrid certainly. But they are still a great team and they can win too. So far there has been a balanced game. Barcelona are performing really decently right now and maybe they can find the first goal in the game. My biggest hope is to see a goal as early as possible to fire up the competition more in the game.

[RealMalatesta]

If Benzema is absent, then Real Madrid's home match, but Barcelona's chances of winning this match are high. Barcelona is now consistent. Real Madrid, on the other hand, is a strong team though. However, they rely heavily on Benzema to win the match. He helped the team win by scoring in the required time. Real Madrid will not be able to fill this gap if he is absent in today's match.

I doubt that Barcelona would have a "high" chance in any case. This is Real Madrid we are talking about and there is really nothing that is too obvious for that much. Yeah, we are talking about something a bit more challenging for both teams, I wouldn't say there would ever be chance for Real Madrid would ever have a high chance neither. Whenever we are talking about el classico, we are talking about something that is a bit of a problem for both teams. I believe that it will be a hardcore battle, and whoever wins, it will not be easy for them. I believe that whoever wins, it will not really change too much of the rest of the season.

[Coyster]

Barcelona are performing really decently right now and maybe they can find the first goal in the game. My biggest hope is to see a goal as early as possible to fire up the competition more in the game.

And they did just that, they did not just get one, but two goals, Aubameyang and Araujo have given Barcelona a two goal lead as they are now in the dying stages of the first half, a very excellent display from Barcelona in this first half, they have clearly been the better team and they deserve to go into the break with this lead. Like i said before today, this is Barcelona's first real test after their resurgence, and they are absolutely bossing it, an awful amount of credit must go the way of Xavi and his boys for not giving up on this season, i hope they see this one through in the second half and take home all three points.

[darxiaomi]

Im not seeing the game but.... What the fuck, Barcelona wins 2-0 in the Half Time, really amazing a lot of years of not seen such a good performance for Barcelona in the Clasico.

The Real Madrid strugled a lot if Benzema dont play, he is the key player.

Very good game, awesome first 45 minutes, 2 good goals and a great surprise. Alaba made the mistake in both goals. Even if today Barcelona will win the game with 4:0 ie 5:0, Real Madrid is as good as champion in the league. But they will be extremely disgusted not to win the game. Real is still 9 points ahead of 2nd place.

[tygeade]

As usual Elclasico games are always tough, so we hope for a tougher one today as Barcelona has taking a step further in their performance by signing new players during the transfer windows that are now the main players that always lead the team to victory. The Real Madrid side are also on form as Vinicius Jr is always improving and the team are well equipped and are ready to compete. I predicted the match over 2.5 because I know we will see plenty goals tonight.

El Clásico mean one of the biggest rivalry in soccer world with known form is also on level and both teams are looking for positive end of this season even it's not going to hurt Real Madrid as they are already having very healthy lead at top, but Barcelona is looking for good recovery after worst ever start of this season hopefully we will have very entertaining display of soccer from most quality and skilled players around the globe Benzema absence is going to hurt home team.

Still, they have few quality players those can keep momentum in their hands for win of this match with the arrival of Aubameyang surely Barcelona is feeling more energetic, but this is El Clásico which is at his best with Vinicius Jnr is going to do his best for his club at home.

[Newlifebtc]

Real Madrid and Barcelona, i have never expected Barcelona to flogged real Madrid to this level, just for the first half Barcelona is counting 2 goals already, if real Madrid did not change plans i dont think they can equalizes the match, their is no room for excuss of real Madrid saying at this point that Barcelona will hold them down for first half

[Avirunes]

And they did just that, they did not just get one, but two goals, Aubameyang and Araujo have given Barcelona a two goal lead as they are now in the dying stages of the first half, a very excellent display from Barcelona in this first half, they have clearly been the better team and they deserve to go into the break with this lead.

Barca are playing great football right now. Just hoped that they would have sacked Koeman earlier, then they could have a shot at the top. Xavi and the team has done lot of hard work to get to this level and it is really commendable that they have improved in such short period of time. The recent transfers also were really crucial that. I don't see any chances for Madrid to comeback without Benzema here.

Two goals behind Barcelona means nothing to Real Madrid, doesn't that seem right? As usual, Real Madrid have been crowned the kings of comeback after falling behind. 

Barcelona managed to steal the attention in the first half thanks to their fighting spirit getting better. Dembele and Aubameyang have been on fire of late and this is a good dynamic for a Barcelona comeback for the rest of the season. Indeed there is still a second half, but Barcelona's 2-goal advantage in the first half was not expected. The win against Real Madrid is of course very important for Barcelona, ​​it will be a good season for Xavi and his team if they really can end the match with a win. I hope there are still goals in the second half that the Barcelona players score. Why not?

[macson]

Im not seeing the game but.... What the fuck, Barcelona wins 2-0 in the Half Time, really amazing a lot of years of not seen such a good performance for Barcelona in the Clasico.

The Real Madrid strugled a lot if Benzema dont play, he is the key player.

apart from benzema not playing, the 4-2-4-0 formation is not very suitable for madrid today.  dembele contributed 2 assists in this match ^{(1 for aubameyang goal and 1 for arauji's goal)}.  in the second half it looks like there will be another goal from barca.

A questionable performance from real madrid in the first half they backed up to the defense and let barcelona team play as they like i don't know why but real madrid team is not playing well vinicious jr had a one on one with the keeper and he blew it if benzema was playing i think many things would've been different.
