La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Swordsoffreedom]

Quique Setien seems to have been just Barcelona’s second choice for a new coach in January 
The first choice was Ronald Koeman but he decided to remain the coach of the Dutch national team and lead them to the euro.
However, Ronald Koeman confirmed that his dream is to one day become the coach of Barcelona and left that possibility open.
Do you think Ronald Koeman could be Barcelona’s next coach?

Koeman, hmmm he hasn’t been manager of a big club recently & there isn’t many bigger than Barca. Maybe tgey should move for Pochettino, he plays progressive football with modern tactics.

Actually in the past Barcelona was well known as a club that brave enough to hire a coach with not so much experience before, and the results were amazing. E.g. Rijkaard, Vilanova, Enrique, and ofc Pep. I wouldn't be surprised if Pimienta as Barcelona B coach gets promoted to senior level.

Most of the time I have watched, Barcelona always likes to take a little risk and most of the time they achieve success with confidence. I think the reason behind of their success is only of hard work and their strong morale. so, I think it's no matter, who the coach is! if he works hard for his trainee, we will definitely see Barcelona's improvement.

I dunno, but I feel Barca was so stable and great under Joan Laporta, even without any sponsorship deal on their jersey at that time. He had only two coaches Rijkaard and Pep during his time as Barca's president, while from the time he was replaced in 2010 till today, there are 5 coaches already. Maybe the problem is more likely on their management system than the technical issue. Not saying everything was great under Laporta, but their performance at that time and the youth development program were much better.

Barcelona is also one of the most famous club in the world and everybody wants to play in Barcelona 😁
They don't have problem to bring any player and financially they are very strong.
So,  it's natural that Barcelona always wants to win and to collect titles.
Of course,  it's very difficult to be coach in Barcelona because demands and goals  are very high.

Sevilla is playing home with Betis, it is a city derby, and have put Sevilla on my parlay, to celebrate La liga restart, although do not expect easy one for them, do think that they could win first after restart, to ensure their position three
hope that La liga will finish in good manner, without corona outbreak, and that VCF will be among top four for CL qualification

For me derby of Sevilla is probably most tricky game after lockdown. Sevilla is favorites, but Betis is very unpredictable team. They can play draw against Mallorca and Leganes, but they won against Real before lockdown, lost to Barca just 2:3.
It will be very difficult for Valencia. Gap between 3 and 7 places is small, so it will be very interesting to watch how it will end. Even Atletico may end without CL spot. And maybe Getafe can qualify to it through Europa league if they will win it. Looking how they playing this season, I think it's possible.

[slaman29]

Lol I thought you called Messi stupid.

I would never do such a thing hehe. And even if I did, for any player at any time, I would have said it in a joking way and never serious. I'm always full of respect for people who give their lives to their clubs:)

Atletico will probably want to sacrifice everything at this point for another run to Champs League final (I think they can have equal chance at least as Barca in this weird scenario of covid fitness and availability. I know nothing about any team right now and I think we can only judge after the first few games. I don't even know if my team is still intact!

Yeah Al that sounds pretty crap to me, Looks like La Liga will start next Friday after almost three months because of Covid-19. It is not yet understood what the mental and physical condition of the players of any team is! I think the effect of starting the game after a long time will be felt in the game. Real Madrid and Barcelona play on the same day and Atletico Madrid. The point is that the first tier teams play on the same day, their position will be understood on the same day.

I don’t think much chance of Atletico getting to the final, they were very lucky to get past Liverpool in the last round. I think they’ll get taken apart by the next big team they play in the CL.

Liverpool is for sure the favorite of this game but Atletico has still their chances.
We cannot expect how teams are going to react after this huge break.
Maybe we can see a huge difference in Atletico's performance and score outstanding goals.

[el kaka22]

^ Lol that is the most hilarious part of this situation, we don't know if the players are still there or not. Maybe the best player has covid and we do not know? How could we know if they have any virus or not if the media is not reporting or the team is not letting it known.

I have no idea who returns and who doesn't, at the very least we will have some players going out there so that we would have something to watch during these boring times so I will not really be disappointed no matter who is injured or sick, even if the top class players are not there I will still watch because I have been bored out of my mind for not watching any matches and unfortunately youtube videos and Fifa20 could get me to some place but that's it, eventually you get bored from them too.

I would avoid the Sevilla match for now. In fact i would avoid all the beginning La Liga matches just to be sure that the players' fitness levels where not massively affected.

I know it's very tempting especially after a very long period without football.

I wouldn't say that they were lucky against Liverpool. Simeone's tactics just worked very well against them. Though, I don't see them among favorites to win CL.
On the other hand, it's likely that 1/4 and 1/2 finals will be just one game, what opens more room for surprises.

Indeed after the long pause, performance of teams may fluctuate hardly if we take Bundesliga as an example. Now Sevilla and Betis game is hard to predict even before the pause so it is wise to take a look at the game first before losing money

I can't avoid it, La Liga is back and I intend to watch the game and it is much more interesting for me if I have the money riding on it as well. This is a city derby which can be tough to predict even when things are "normal". I am missing a lot of info but I hope Fekir is ok and plays tonight. If he plays I am quite sure Betis will manage to score a goal so I went with both to score @1.80 for this match. Betis came for me on that line many times before and I expect them to continue delivering.

[big_daddy]

I have a tip for the LaLiga re-start 

RCD Mallorca - FC Barcelona
Anytime Goalscorer Budimir, Ante @3.78

Mallorca is trying to escape the relegation, and will do the best to try to score against Barcelona (hard target, but real)
Mallorca has scored 28 goals total, Ante Budimir scored 9, and made 2 assists (being involved in almost 50% of every action resulted wit a scored goal)
So, if Mallorca scores, probably Ante will score, so I'm taking this risk for a single bet with a good price

Cheers!

La Liga, the best league in the world, is back!! tears of happiness 

I'm going to avoid ML and especially home wins for a couple of weeks in my bet slips. To kick things off, I'm gonna go with corners: https://i.ibb.co/CQ1Mxvf/Over10.png

If I win, good, but all I want today is to watch a good football match, the Derbi Sevillano usually delivers, so (:

Haha, I’m desperate for the PL to return for selfish reasons
I’ve missed football so much though, trust me I’ll savour every minute of the Bundesliga & La Liga whilst I wait for the PL though

[dwminer1]

La Liga is finally coming back! And to start with the Seville derby. Theoretically, the favorite is FC Sevilla, but the form of the teams is a great unknown. However, I hope for an interesting match and several goals. I bet over 2,5 - @1.81
You can find a lot of interesting information about the Seville derby in this article: https://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/el-gran-derbi-preview/180678

It's going to be quite a match, I actually don't know what to expect from either side due to the break so, I'm not totally sure on what option or which team to bet on but I'll surely put a few on the line for this game, It feels awesome to have the league back, I already got a beep from SuperBRU to make my picks for the round.

[BIT-BENDER]

. However, I hope for an interesting match and several goals. I bet over 2,5 - @1.81

An interesting existing match it will be, no team would bend over for the other one to be ridden over, a tough match, the teams are solid defensively, and would want to keep its tighter at the back, I will go the other way from you - there would be less goals in the match- a barren draw, but it won't be barren in excitement.
