La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[snipie]

What a boring game, almost nothing happens. It doesn't really matter, Real Madrid don't have to do anything. I think Betis would have it easier and win. This year, Betis also won the Spanish Cup. It was close, won on penalties shot out against Valencia. Copa del Rey won this year.

I didn't think to see main players playing in this game, since being afraid from injuries would affect their performance. I think Ancelotti put them today to make them fit for the important CL match vs Liverpool. The game ended with a draw, Betis will end 5th in all cases and Sevilla + ATM guaranteed their CL spots.
The remaining interesting spots to pick is the 7th between Villarreal and Bilbao and the 18th (to avoid) between Cadiz, Mallorca and Granada.

The Real Madrid - Betis game somehow ended by 0-0. Even though the season was already finished for both of them, I still hoped to see a more qualified game. Especially after Real Madrid started the game with crucial starting eleven players like Benzema and Vinicius Junior, I waited for seeing at least one goal by them. But this was a really boring finale to the season in the La Liga. Betis didn't have much to do against them too.

Real Madrid players have long lost interest in competitions when they realized they were going to become champions. With a view to the Champions League match, the coach naturally wants to ensure that the players stay fit. He cannot afford that a player like Benzema sustains an injury in a league match and as a result should miss the CL final.

yeah, a very boring match, both of them played just to play, not to win, players were lacking motivation, especially Real madrid as we've seen what they can do against big teams so many times regardless of their overall form in that season or last few matches, another title for los blancos and now they have to keep their focus in the champions league.

[TelolettOm]

I didn't understand why Ancelotti decided to have the full lineup in their Betis game today. Truthfully, I was expecting to see the opposite from them as they were going to play a Champions League finale in eight days. But maybe they wanted to end the season by a good result.

If they want to get a good result in this match, Ancelotti must put substitution players on the lineups and order them to play all out. They must be more desired to score and play with all their best. But with all key players as the starters, Ancelotti won't order them to play seriously because they have a more important match on May 29, the final UCL. It is confusing why Ancelotti didn't use most substitution players on the lineups, instead let some main players played until the end of the match. Not only about keeping the fitness of the main players, but the substitutions players also deserve to play full time in this situation. Ancelotti should rotate the players properly, but he didn't do it in this match.

Sevilla decline in performance occurred at the right time, there is no longer a threat for Sevilla in fourth position because Sevilla has one ticket to the Champions League.

It's a bit strange with this sentence
Actually, there is no right time for a decline, a club should continue to improve its performance, or at least maintain its performance. Even if there is a decline, it shouldn't be drastic, and it doesn't happen repeatedly and it doesn't consistently decline. There must be evaluation and improvement again, otherwise, it means something is wrong. We can see that in some matches, Sevilla only had drawn results in sequences, moreover some actually should have chance to win, but it didn't happen. Fortunately, Sevilla is still in the top four so they can still be qualified for UCL. This club must really pay attention on their player performance and strategy for the next season.

yeah, a very boring match, both of them played just to play, not to win, players were lacking motivation,

You know it, so it is normal if there is nothing interesting in that match.
Real Madrid already won the La Liga title, while Betis can't improve their position. Surely both have no motivation to win, they only played without any purpose in that match. Because of that reason, both teams won't play all out that may spend all energy, especially Real Madrid that needs to keep their fitness to play in UCL final.

It would be foolish for Real Madrid if force themselves to win the match against Betis, because facing Betis is not a game that must be won.
If Real Madrid put out their best game at risk of injury, and it will cost Real Madrid who will soon face Liverpool in the Champions League final.
Even Real Madrid supporters were not disappointed with the draw result when Real Madrid faced Betis. From the very beginning before
the Real Madrid vs Betis match started we should have been able to predict, that Real Madrid couldn't possibly push for a win. Therefore Real Madrid
in this match played more carefully and did not play aggressively as usual, because I don't think Ancelotti fielded a main player against Betis to win,
but just a warm-up so that their players are better prepared to face Liverpool in the next game. Therefore if we want to watch an interesting match,
don't miss watching the Liverpool vs Real Madrid match, I'm sure the match will be very interesting and hopefully many goals will be created.

I think Madrid should still be able to win against Betis last night. yes because Real Madrid plays more carefully and just keeps their possession of the ball, a draw is not bad. they will still party. because any result will not change the history that Madrid has created this season.
I don't think Madrid will field Benzema. but it turned out to be wrong. maybe it's true that the match against Betis can be done by Madrid as a warm-up before the main match in the Champions League final.
Madrid seems to have prepared everything well. they will do well in the final.

I think many were right that Real Madrid was playing for a safe draw only and in the end the match ended in a draw, and further it makes absolute sense not to push your team too hard in a match that doesn’t even matter. However I’m sad cause Bale couldn’t make it to the pitch to play his final game for Real Madrid, because in my personal opinion he deserved a proper sendoff.

But luck for Real Madrid because they can keep their touch of the game to stay at their best. This can be used for the Real Madrid camp before they appear all out in the Champions League final which will definitely drain their energy and concentration. This is like a warm-up event for Real Madrid for the final match later.

No goals other than good play by the two champions It was a great season, thank you Real Madrid, until next time.
With this draw, Real Madrid's bad trend continues, namely Real Madrid still haven't been able to score against Real Betis at home since the last time in 2017, 5 years and still continuing.   

[bestcoins1]

But sorry, are you a Real Madrid fan? I

Hehe, everyone is free to be a fan of any team because it is everyone's favorite thing on a team without any intervention from others although I also wouldn't be sad if Real Madrid had to lose in the Champions League final this season.

don't want to offend you here. But you need to pay attention to this thread.

No need to be reminded again because I've seen that thread and also two different people have clarified it, but not many people believe it.

Real Madrid have gone through the last game with a draw, Real Madrid chose to play it safe because any result will no longer affect their position. The addition of one point allows Real Betis to appear in the Europa League next season. The draw the two teams got did not harm anyone, Real Betis got a ticket to the Europa League, while Real Madrid could leave the field without any injured core players.

Maybe this is a bit of a disservice to Real Betis, Before that, Real Betis were after UCL tickets. But failed, and only satisfied with the european league. It's confirmed that sevilla is the 4th team from La Liga to play in the Champions League next season

I am looking forward to the 3rd team from La Liga which will qualify for the european league next season, Vilareal or Athletic

It is true that coach Carlo Ancelotti made this match a warm-up to the UCL final by fielding 11 main players such as the club's top scorer, Karim Benzema, up front. However, on the other hand Real Madrid also made a bad record by failing to score in five La Liga matches at the Santiago Bernebeu this season. it was Real Madrid's worst goalless streak at home in a league season, equaling 1984-85 and 1993-94.

I was quite surprised that Benzema was played in the match against Betis for 90 minutes. I think Carlo Ancelotti's decision is quite risky,
because maybe Benzema will get injured. Fortunately Benzema and some of Real Madrid's main players were not injured, and Real Madrid are
ready to face Liverpool with the best squad they have. Maybe that's sad for me, Eden Hazard, who was on the Real Madrid bench, was not given
the opportunity to play. Even though Eden Hazard has recovered from injury and should have been given the opportunity to play in the last
La Liga game. But maybe Ancelotti has his own reasons why Hazard doesn't play at all. Similarly with Gareth Bale has been training with
Real Madrid players, but is not on the bench. It is a pity that these two expensive Real Madrid players have not had much time to play this season.

Real Madrid players play very carefully, they don't seem insistent and have more motivation to win games even though they are playing at home and in front of their own fans. this draw is very bad for them.
but apart from that we have to appreciate Real Betis' excellent performance, they were able to match Real Madrid and make the match fierce.

But this was a really boring finale to the season in the La Liga. Betis didn't have much to do against them too.

I think, Real Madrid tried their possible best to defeat Betis 1-0 but Betis players never allowed Real Madrid strikers to achieve any goal from the match. It was a tough match to both teams because the both teams were using the same tactics to played each other that made the match boring for the two fans to lose confidence that the match will end up draw 0-0. Real Madrid didn't really demonstrated well in this match because they don't want Liverpool to defeat them in the champion league final that is approaching. I believe Real Madrid will definitely defeat Liverpool 1-0 because they will never allow Liverpool to win the title.

Especially after Real Madrid started the game with crucial starting eleven players like Benzema and Vinicius Junior, I waited for seeing at least one goal by them. But this was a really boring finale to the season in the La Liga. Betis didn't have much to do against them too.

I was not expecting any team among both to win, although I may be expecting goal or from Real Madrid and to win, but also I know the match may ended draw and even with no goal. To make it not long, I was expecting anything to happen. Real Madrid players can play, but I believe Ancelotti would have told the players that it is draw they wanted or they may win if their is any chance for win with ease, the players know that also because they would not want to lose on their victory day, but they can win or draw which was what that happened. The match that Real Madrid is mostly preparing for with all their energy now is Champions League final.

Real Madrid players play very carefully, they don't seem insistent and have more motivation to win games even though they are playing at home and in front of their own fans. this draw is very bad for them.
but apart from that we have to appreciate Real Betis' excellent performance, they were able to match Real Madrid and make the match fierce.

You appreciate Real Betis or not does not matters, Real Betis remain in the position it is after the draw, if to be appreciated, it should have won the match. Real Madrid players needed to be careful because they have an important match ahead of them, if they play yesterday with all their strength, waste much of their energies and have injuries, it would be foolish of them. What I saw that Real Madrid did and how they played is very wise of them because Real Madrid had won the league (La Liga) already.

[Wiwo]

A big congratulations to Real Madrid haven't finish the Spanish Laliga with the highest point, even though the last match with real Bentis ended in a draw. I will not say that coach took wrong move by playing the best player in the laliga finals even though they have a bigger match against Liverpool next Saturday in the championship risking them getting injured since Real Madrid have other good players on the bench. Benzema and the other top real Madrid players needed to be featured in last night game just to give their club fans the excitement needed to cheer them into the champion league final and even though the match ended in a draw it still a win for real Madrid since their scored the highest point in the laliga table this season.
