La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[kapalmabur]

in the second match against real sociedad, barcelona managed to win the match, their game was so good, especially in the second half. I think Lewandowski and his friends have found the rhythm of the game and the chemistry between the players.  Nevertheless, I think the La Liga round is still long, we will see if Barcelona can compete with Real Madrid or not.

Although they did not win the first match, but I will say that Barcelona's performance in both matches was quite good. Barcelona also attacked a lot against Rayo Vallecano but was unable to score. However, many players are new to the team. The understanding between the players will gradually become stronger.

We are still not sure how strong Barcelona's defense is. If the defense is not strong, Barcelona will not be able to win the title. Their main rival Real Madrid's squad is stable. Real Madrid will win this season's title if Barcelona can't stabilize.

Yes, that's right, so far no club has really tested the defense of Barcelona. In attack, they look good, but at the back they don't look perfect. We'll have to wait until they face the good in attack, so we can see how their defense works. Maybe their friendly match with Manchester City will test their strength, because Manchester City have the advantage in attack.

That will happen if Manchester City play their core players given the schedule of the busy Premier League then Pep will most likely provide an opportunity for his young players,
We'll see who Pep will bring against Barcelona and regardless of what it is this match will be interesting to see

It seems like players can't control their emotions. These red cards were not actually needed but sometime when the team getting triggered caused by some provocations and i would not be surprised to see that players will be getting red cards as they were making serious foul for their oppenents. Real madrid was playing safe rather than making some of its starting line up can't play for a few match due to the red cards and that's better.

All matches, even in sports, must be able to control emotions to keep playing calmly without any conflicts that can harm many parties, when a player gets a red card then it makes the management of the club lose because they have paid a lot and given a high salary but he can't play or contribute to the maximum. Real Madrid realized the loss so they preferred to play a more enjoyable game without anger.

Players have to control their emotions, that's right. But as a fan, I don't want to see this crap - when a player of one team harasses another player for the entire match to force him to respond and receive a red card. This was in the game Liverpool - Crystal Palace. I don’t understand why, having a video recording of all Andersen’s actions, it’s impossible to give him a disqualification for 5-10 games after the game? I want to watch football and not shit. If a player does not want to play football, then let him rest disqualified.

Basically Barcelona still have a defender who hasn't been registered in La Liga and it looks like the problem is again about money, and he is the player they just signed from Sevilla is Jules Kunde, and there's Sergino Dest too. If they are registered then of course, Barcelona's defense can be said to be quite good and quite promising that they will be able to compete in the race for the La Liga title. Regarding the friendly match against Manchester City in the middle of this week, I think both teams will still play their main squad, considering Manchester City also yesterday only got a draw against Newcastle. That way, of course Pep will play serious gameplay to test how well their strategy is to become even stronger.

we've seen a lot of provocation in football matches. instead of making a tight pressing with a few fouls that make the opponent emotional. I believe these are all tactics given by the coach to certain players in anticipating the opponent.
and this season the hottest is what Andersen did to Nunez. Andersen even reportedly received threats from fans related to his provocation to Nunez.

[naira]

I think it's quite comparable and optimistic to see how a Barcelona-friendly match against Manchester City goes. We will see almost the same quality of strategy because both coaches are the best coaches in providing strategies. But keep in mind that Manchester City will not change too much after being held to a draw by a club that has not changed much from the start. Unfortunately, unexpectedly Newcastle really appears extraordinary.

Well, this time Barcelona will be tested directly, with Xavi squad who will feel how tight Pep Guardiola game is. It doesn't matter win or lose because we are here just to see how far the difference between the two this season is.

[babo]

I was watching the poll, 126 have voted so far and 86 percent think Real Madrid will win
the reason is, as I have well analyzed, solid team, which has won everything and which performs like a stone crusher
unfortunately the others can only chase (barcelona)
for real competition we talk about it next season, probably (I hope)

[Minor Miner]

Well, this time Barcelona will be tested directly, with Xavi squad who will feel how tight Pep Guardiola game is. It doesn't matter win or lose because we are here just to see how far the difference between the two this season is.

I think Barcelona will win this match. The match will be held at Camp Nou. Barcelona is strong in home matches. On the other hand, Manchester City's performance in the last match against Newcastle was not good. Moreover, the Barcelona players seem more confident now. However, the match is expected to be very competitive. We will see the match strategy of Xavi and Guardiola in this match.

[Pesona1]

This friendly match can be an evaluation for Xavi in ​​improving his team for the better, guardiola and Xavi are like a battle between teachers and students, although indirectly but I think Xavi has learned a lot from guardiola when he was still a barcelona player and  Xavi often using game tactics that were often adopted by guardiaola when he was still coaching Barcelona, ​​the club match diffirent countries would likely be worth watching because even though it was only a friendly match but surely both teams would field their best squads in that match.

Most chances we will have mostly youngsters from these both clubs because they are not going to take any chance with their main players right now things are tough and challenging for them in their leagues, and they can't afford any problem which could be happened in this friendly match Barcelona suffer issues in their first match and Manchester city also lost two important points against club like Newcastle United, so we have to check and wait for lineup how they are going to do in this match.

Because, Pep and Xavi both are very enthusiastic about their leagues and title hopes which are not easy for both teams in presence of tough challenges which are going to become in next matches against big clubs in their respective leagues.

We should not assume that Manchester city are weak or we lose to Barcelona because Newcastle United won them last weekend, pep guadiola side are very good and let's not forget they were 3-1 down before equalising to 3-3 if they was still time they would have won. Barcelona have improved there squad in this transfer window and it will be nice to see xavi Hernandez facing his mentor and old boss pep guadiola.

[el kaka22]

Friendly games really do not mean anything at all. You could play ALL your great players, and it still doesn't matter because they won't care about it as much. Normally the caring happens; least is friendly, then national friendly, then league, then ucl groups, then league last weeks, then ucl last weeks, then world cup with nation. That means we are talking about club friendly which is the least cared about one and it will never be something proper at all, it will always be players who just go out there to get some shape and fitness and that's it.

Do not care about anything else, just focus on the fact that Barcelona looks nice, and that's good enough, don't need to know their exact place.

[Zackgeno96]

Real Madrid have made a better impression so far. But Modric was also great last weekend. He even got a loud applause from the home crowd (that is, from the opponent). If you manage to do that, then you have shown something special. Real Madrid are on course with the points, Barcelona seemed to be getting no further but the last half hour they completely outplayed Sociedad. The question is who will be the first to drop points. I'm also curious how much Atletico Madrid and Sevilla can catch up with Barcelona and Madrid.

Friendly match between Barcelona vs manchester city, I think these two teams will play young players or more dominated by their substitutes. But it's better for us to wait for the starting eleven from these two teams. Given the friendly matches, of course, the two coaches will not play core players in order to prevent unwanted things such as injuries. This match will also be a reunion of the two teams, precisely between Xavi and Pep. It will be interesting to see if Barcelona can beat the Premier League giants. some of the news that I read about this match is a humanitarian mission where the funds obtained will be used for research on the disease experienced by Juan Carlos.

They will play tomorrow and we will see what kind of squad Pep will line up against Barça. If both teams take the field with their best 11 players, we will watch a visual feast for football. If there will be alternative squads for the friendly match, then the match will not be serious, both teams will use this match to try players. I'm already looking forward to tomorrow's teams.

I don't think it will be a very serious match although the prestige of the two is also the reason why they have to play their best players. I hope Barcelona will have no trouble beating Manchester City like they did in the previous match. I know it's just friendly match, but the prestige is always there.

The last time Barcelona met Manchester City was in 2016 in the Champions League group stage. At that time Barcelona lost to Manchester City with score of 3-1, but after that the two had never met if I'm not mistaken. So for this friendly match, I hope that both of them can be serious enough to play their best players and also with interesting game strategies.

In every competitive game where one person has to emerge as a winner and the other as a loser, different strategies and tactics are used to get the opponent to loss his focus. Same in football these are strategies used to upset the opposing player to get him or her to lose their cool and react which sometimes result to sending off and as a professional player it is expected of you to know this tricks and discipline yourself which Nunez didn't and cost his team to play with 10 men for the rest of the game.

A friendly between both sides will be a showcase of tactics and strategies from both managers, both managers have known each other for a long time, both teams have similar playing style and tactics. Holding and keeping possession and are both dangerous when they attack also. Both teams have very good midfield and attackers and the game will be very competitive, it will be a very fun game to watch, it will be a test between Xavi and Pep Gaurdiola, who is better tactically.

[lalabotax]

Friendly match between Barcelona vs manchester city, I think these two teams will play young players or more dominated by their substitutes. But it's better for us to wait for the starting eleven from these two teams.

Of course, they seem to release most of their substitution players on the match. It is too risky to release the key players in a friendly match, especially when the La Liga or EPL competition is still in the early of the season. Barcelona and Man City will be in trouble if many of their key players get injured in the friendly match. TBH, I don't think this friendly match is really needed since it is no longer in pre-season. But both Barcelona and Man City may think it has an advantage for them to motivate the players and try new tactics.

[Luzin]

The question is who will be the first to drop points. I'm also curious how much Atletico Madrid and Sevilla can catch up with Barcelona and Madrid.

It's hard to guess, even I hope Madrid will not lose points. But one day I'm sure there will be a game that the end result is a draw or even a loss. Keeping the team's performance to always win is difficult. I think both will be number 1 or 2 in the table.
Although I observe the age of barca players is currently better and they can use it for the long term. The young age of barca players is more than madrid. That is Anceloti's task to prepare for regeneration. Although currently anceloti have started selling some of their old players despite being the top choice.

Despite the fact that Barcelona won City in their last game when both of them met in pre-season ,right now if both teams should use their full squad to play that game, still I'm not gonna risk my money to (bet) on Barcelona to win Manchester City because the strength of Barcelona as at now ,is no way to be compared with the strength of City's squad at the moment.Then looking at it as being a friendly match they're not going to use their full squad , so the bottom line is that the outcome of that game would be base on the team that got good young player, I do believe is likely going to win the game.
