La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[VanityWallets2015]

Seeing the strategy that was carried out when Barcelona met Rayo Vallecano in a few moments of course this was good enough to see because Barcelona seemed to want to be offensive from the start but Rayo would probably maximize their midfield so as not to be explored by Barcelona players in this match.
Their 5 midfielders prepare for this match with Nteka on the cutting edge alone

temporary score of Barcelona 0-1 Rayo Vallecano. But nothing is impossible, Rayo Vallecano could beat Barcelona, ​​as in their last meeting. We'll see until the end of the game whether Barcelona can turn things around.

At Barcelona, they won't worry too much after a 0-1 deficit. Even if it's 0-1 at halftime, that doesn't mean anything at all. They have to make that 1-1 quickly, otherwise it can be difficult. A defeat or even a draw would already feel like a defeat and that would give Atletico and Sevilla the opportunity to get closer again. The last few games seems to have crept into the team. Too bad they couldn't give Xavi's good series a suitable sequel.

Barcelona are having good possession are trying to find an opening, they are close to find an equaliser but they need to find the winner also in next 45 minutes. Honestly the early goal from Vallecano is putting pressure on Barca. Barca needs to be sharp in next half in order to win this match.

While Barcelona had to end the first half with a goal behind Rayo Vallecano although I think Barcelona dominated the game well. I don't know if Xavi Hernandez's team today will lose again or will win the match during the second half, but for sure Rayo Vallecano is a tough opponent to beat after I watched the first half.

Rayo Vallecano had no chances during the first half, but they managed to surprise Barcelona with an early goal in the 7th minute. I think Barcelona should move quickly to score in the second half because otherwise Barcelona will have a hard time breaking Andoni Iraola's defense. My prediction Barcelona will win, but there is a possibility of a draw for the fairest result for this match.

Barcelona seems to be doing their best to lose 2nd place in La Liga.
I don't think this match will end with a 1--0 score for Rayo, but it's definitely not the Barcelona that it used to be.

Even though it's still the first half but trailing 0-1 to Vallecano is something quite surprising. Barcelona is indeed more dominating the game, but they always fail to take advantage of opportunities to score goals. In my opinion, Barcelona looks rushed in attacking, therefore many opportunities are ultimately wasted. If Barcelona wants to win then they have to improve in the second half.

[Woodie]

Barcelona seems to be wanting to go back on a losing run once again..looking at how they are playing, and had it not been for that Win over Real Sociedad these guys would have had three loses back to back in all competitions,and already they are chasing the game against Rayo Vallecano which is at halftime.
Btw I hope these guys know that other than the top spot the other 3 positions are tightly contested and points difference isn't match if we include 5th and 6th Positions,if they want champions League football they better win today!

Although Barcelona is one goal behind, but so far Barcelona has dominated the match, so it's just a matter of time for Barcelona to score a goal.
I believe with Xavi's strategy and also the quality of Barcelona's players they will be able to win the game. But it was quite surprising for Rayo
to score a goal in the early minutes of the match, at least the goal was enough to make Barcelona players depressed. Now it's just a matter of
how Rayo maintains that advantage, but if we look at the quality of the players that Barcelona have, it looks like it will be difficult for Rayo to win
the game, Moreover, this match is played at Camp Nou, it is certain that Barcelona will be motivated to win. The game has entered 60 minutes,
meaning there are still about 30 minutes left for Barcelona to turn things around. They must quickly score one goal first to equalize, otherwise
the pressure will be even greater and it will affect Barcelona's game.

This is the problem with Barcelona in recent times; they hold onto possession and do nothing with it, neither do they create enough chances to even score a goal; instead the opponents deprived of the ball, always win or get a drawn; Can we say Xavi tactics has been found out ? Mid table Vallecano will be looking to close out as victors and earn a bragging rights for their supporters. Can Barcelona turn this around ? Theres 45 minutes  left to find out

They still can't do anything now 9 attempted kicks just one threat is not something good for Barelona.
Rayo will definitely maintain this with the defense they are putting together now because 1 goal is enough for them to win if they manage to hold on for these 90 minutes.
Xavi has to come up with something new now, they won't be able to score goals like this during the game

[sovie]

We can see that Barcelona's performance in recent matches is very low. The statistics show it very well. With so much ball possession, not scoring a goal is simply a school mistake. If this game ends with Rayo's victory, I will be sure that Barcelona will not finish on second position this season.

[Slow death]

i had left and when i came back i found while barcelona is already losing, they can't score at least 1 goal, this is something very serious, how do they intend to stay in the second position of la league like that? they are a disaster. what is shocking is to see that they have an overwhelming majority of possession of the ball but they are not managing to score at least 1 goal to tie the game, so I am watching they are wasting several opportunities to score a goal. I'm safe to say that barcelona is in need of players like haland or salah or even benzema, because the way things are going they won't get far, at least I don't believe that with this team they can win the league.

every game they're just getting worse, the way they fail to score goals is pitiful and shameful, i don't understand what the hell they have? why do they fail so much?

Maybe  Xavi should walk onto the field by himself and finally score a goal.
I don't know what an idea a coach might have at this point, but maybe they should fight for a penalty..   Although with such a terrible effectiveness, there is a high risk that this shot would also be missed.

The truth is I see Barcelona with a very low performance, almost 75 minutes and I still don't see them raising their heads, Rayo Vallecano is taking a good advantage over Barcelona, the more they continue wasting time I think that will benefit Rayo Vallecano more , I also see Xavi anxious, and he almost scored an own goal against Barcelona.

I also see that Dembelé is doing everything, it seems that he was the only player that I see more heart for Barcelona at the moment.

There are often weaker matches. Anyone can have a weaker day. But this is (almost) the third game in a row where Barcelona are playing as if they did not want to score. This is not due to the excellent defense of each opponent, the attack is simply extremely weak and ineffective.

Barcelona are required to play well, win or win is not important. 😂 Xavi once said something like this: At Barcelona, ​​we looked at the history of the team. When Cruyff first arrived he laid the important foundations to play well. We won by playing well. That's the Catalan way of life. That's what we do.
I think playing pretty is not so important, what matters is the final result must win. current score is still 0-1 min 80

Rayo played with a tight defense and it's very good for them not to lose focus now.
Minutes have shown to 80 means that there are only 10 minutes left plus additional time for them to continue to play disciplined.
Barcelona's attack doesn't have any impact at the moment and I see the players are starting to get frustrated and of course this is good enough for me to see

[YinShuiSiYuan]

Everything indicates that an almost identical situation as in the match against Cadiz will repeat.
I think Xavi will have to take some drastic steps after this match, because if it continues like this, Barcelona officials will have to think about some bigger changes in the club.

Alves: Real Madrid are lucky Barcelona found form so late in season
https://www.goal.com/en-in/news/alves-real-madrid-are-lucky-barcelona-found-form-so-late-in/blt64cfc90f1e87e8ce

What a moron  
If we consider the moment when Barcelona woke up as the arrival of Xavi (I think this is implied), then in the ensuing segment, Real scored more points than Barcelona, that is, Barcelona increased its gap from Real under Xavi.
Xavi, by the way, also often says non-obvious things when he names a thousand reasons for a bad result. I'm annoyed by this kind of fist-waving after a fight.

So what are you trying to say? Xavi didn't do a good enough job?  

for him waving his hand after the match is breaking any laws?  

Barcelona was in shambles when Xavi came and took Barcelona out of the hole that they dug themselves and boosted the team.

Yes, I absolutely agree that Real Madrid performed better this season than Barcelona but Barcelona did make a really good comeback. and if you think that Real Madrid is not lucky because Barcelona found their form really late in the season I think you are living in some fantasy.

  Maybe you should re-read what I wrote so as not to repeat this nonsense? If you take into account only the points that the teams scored after the arrival of Xavi, then Real is still ahead, do you understand that? Even taking into account the fact that the motivation of Real by the end of the championship is falling (due to the huge advantage). Therefore, the arguments about the "gained strength of Barcelona" are ridiculous. If it has gained strength, where are the results?   I see only relegation from the Spanish Cup and the Europa League.

[Cryptock]

Barcelona is trying very hard to make another surprise. In my opinion, this should not be played by the team that is seeking second place in La Liga. I still hope that they will rise to the occasion and score at least one goal per draw.

[visionE2]

Barcelona managed to control 70 percent of the ball possession, while Rayo Vallecano was only able to control 30 percent.
In terms of opportunities, Barcelona has successfully recorded many opportunities but none of them have managed to become goals. Rayo's defense was still strong, so it made it difficult for Barcelona to create goals and the match only had a few minutes left, the score was still Barcelona 0-1 Rayo
