La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Raflesia]

The chance is still very big for Real Madrid, but they have to be wary of the movements of some Villarreal players who are sometimes surprising in several sectors such as the midfield with their good passes.
Villarreal's 2 lucky wins are actually quite good and this can be a reference that Madrid must be able to be stable when attacking and defending because I think this is an important thing for them to do.

On paper, of course, Real Madrid is the favorite in this match and at the same time this is a good opportunity for them to win and try to overtake Barcelona who will face a tougher opponent, Atletico Madrid. Last week, their rivals had bad results by only getting 1 point because they were held to a draw by Espanyol, which made their points gain now the same.
But a tough task awaits Real Madrid's attack line this time, because Villareal is a team that has been difficult to bombard its defense until now. This is something Carlo Ancelotti's men should have realized and tried to find the weak points of their defence.

Barcelona's chance to win is indeed a little disturbed by Atletico, who actually always appear to be totally defensive when facing big teams and trying to get 1 point. but when that happened, it was clear that this was a loss for Barcelona, especially at this time, their points acquisition with Madrid did not exist because the points were the same and only different in terms of goal productivity.
They should try to get 3 points in this match because even though Atletico is quite a strong team, they still have problems in their defense.

Atlético have conceded 14 goals this season - almost one goal per game - and we can say that their defense is no better (and often worse) than that of about 8-10 La Liga teams that have similar figures. On paper, Barcelona should be the favorite in this game, but I think that Atlético, due to a combination of factors (home game, increased motivation against a principled opponent), has at least an equal chance. In case that Lewandowski still misses this game, Atlético should generally be the favorite.

What can we really say to be th reason why Rela Madrid have been under performing since after the world cup and the resumption of the league, i was watching a preview of some of their matchs in the last few day back and i am Chuck at what Madrid is playing as if their have lost all the formation we saw last season.

[Porfirii]

It may have gone unnoticed to many of the non Spanish followers of La Liga, but Barcelona almost lost the last game for the King's Cup (Copa del Rey) against a team of third division: they got 3-3, and the unknown team forced the extra time. Fortunately for Barça, it was nothing more than a scare, but it could've been really serious if they got eliminated from the Cup this way.

[asriloni]

The odds of Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are pretty close to each other before their clash in a few days. Atletico Madrid don't have a bad history in their home games against them recently. This might be the reason why. Otherwise there is a huge point gap between these teams in the standings currently. Barcelona are quite the favourite for the win on paper as a result.

Atletico Madrid lost to Real Madrid here before. The same scenario can happen with Barcelona as well. The game Atletico Madrid play in this season is poorer than the previous one. I doubt them about getting even one point in this.

Barcelona in the previous match they could only get one point against Espanyol, so they must be able to get full points in the match against Atletico Madrid later at the Metropolitano Stadium, to stay away from Real Madrid in the standings. You're right Atletico Madrid didn't a good performance, even in the last five matches La Liga Atletico Madrid lost against Cadiz, I also doubt they will get one points this match.

I doubt barcelona will get full points now. I meant i must aware with the fact that barcelona's performance may not be changed for the upcoming match. that means barcelona needs to have huge improvements. Real madrid is slowly become even stronger than before. i prefer to call that madrid as the most favourite candidate to win la liga rather than barcelona itself. Barcelona's performance may not so good right now.
Real madrid has been going back to the best formation with benzema on it and it's quite impossible to prevent real madrid

Athletico shouldn't be a team to compete with Barcelona...not to a point that they'll begin to struggle a single point with them... hmm
ATM hasn't had the ability to score multi goals for seasons now and that should be a Great advantage for Barcelona; Plus they've also got a poor diffensive tactis which serves as YET another advantage for FCB...
I'm seeing it as Barcelona has got alot to do on their defensive structure too...they gonna have to increase their performances as that has been a big red flag for them for a while too... As we all know, Barcelona wasn't having issues playing against a team like ATM -- even in the days of their recent coach -- XAVI... I feel he's still got alot to do

Barcelona may have the opportunity to get goals and win in this match but it must be noted that Atletico Madrid must try hard to penetrate the Barcelona defense and of course they must guard against Robert Lewandowski's movements so that it is not easy to get the ball because so far Barcelona has only relied on wins from Robert Lewandowski.

I think they will still rely on the fast counter-attacks they always do but for now maintaining a draw is something very logical for Atletico in any case.
Barcelona's game in terms of schemes (tiki taka) will definitely be difficult to balance and Atletico will definitely do their best to survive the passing conditions which are always troublesome but I am actually still very confident in Barcelona's victory in this match.

At this moment Barcelona and Xavi have to correct all the mistakes.  If they make a single mistake in the next match, there will be no chance of winning the championship.  A draw in the previous match and this state of affairs in this last match is not a good sign

unfortunately Xavi had to put a disastrous team back on track, it wasn't an easy task but he's working on it
unfortunately we are all good at criticizing without knowing the real problems behind it, I never replace these professionals, sometimes they get it right sometimes they are wrong, but in Xavi I see a lot of good will

Since xavi emerged as the coach of Barcelona he has done well for Barcelona. This level of performance at which Barcelona has reached they still need to put in more effort to become better. It won't make sense for Barcelona to go back to the form they used to be.

This should be a point of no going back for Barcelona,  let all their efforts not to become waste. Barcelona needs to improve to win even if it is a trophy.

He still kinda have the lowest ratings when it comes winning his first few games for Barcelona. He has raised the standards and help Barcelona youngins transform from one of the the poorest to the better under Graham Potter. Sometii wonder what people even love.

He has had a great relationships with the academy player, what is sure is that Barcelona are winning the Prenmh by

Even Real Madrid won by 1 goal in the Copa del Rey. Rayo, Getafe, Valladolid and Elche all lost vs non first division teams.
This competition is less important than La Liga and European leagues, that's why the result might be surprising sometimes.

This was a mistake indeed when they won 1 point from Espanyol which they should have got full points in this match.
But right now it's clear Xavi has to go for bigger things to get his team to the 3 points in the game against Atletico even if it's a big match because otherwise I don't think they will be able to maintain their top spot if they don't get any points in this game.

The match between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid was also one of the matches that determined their position. Atlético Madrid has indeed had a good performance this season. But that doesn't mean it can be ignored. sometimes the team has very high motivation when dealing with opponents like Barcelona and Real Madrid. But on the other hand, I am sure that Xavi will not let his club not get full points again. So, this will be an exciting match.

the rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona this season is quite interesting. because even now Real madrid and Barcelona have the same number of points. .....

Indeed, At least if their points are always the same then the decisive match will be the El Classico duel later. This will definitely add to the tension of the match both on the field and off the field, both between players, coaches, management, and especially their big fans. If someone falls, someone will take over their position. This season is indeed different from last season where Barcelona became Real Madrid's strongest rival in La Liga, this is different from last season when Barcelona was in a slump and could not keep up with Real Madrid. That's why this season is more interesting in my opinion, so it's more challenging and less monotonous.

This competition is less important than La Liga and European leagues, that's why the result might be surprising sometimes.

Over the last couple of years we have seen again and again that teams like Real Madrid or Fc Barcelona seem to struggle against the smaller teams especially in the Copa del Rey. You would think that if it happens to you one year, you will be better prepared next year and not underestimate your opponent... Barcelona really took it to the limit with their overtime. Throwing away their one goal lead three times isn't really speaking for them in any way. I sometimes wonder whether a player who cashes in double digit million amounts of money per year really still cares when a game is lost even against an underdog. That might play a role. Ultimate success isn't needed anymore to become rich in soccer.

What can we really say to be th reason why Rela Madrid have been under performing since after the world cup and the resumption of the league, i was watching a preview of some of their matchs in the last few day back and i am Chuck at what Madrid is playing as if their have lost all the formation we saw last season.

Some important players will be leaving from madrid very soon. You can't prevent it. Some of madrid's players become even older and it can't be prevented. The team must try to find the new formation. Madrid will have so many talented players. Madrid is hunting bernardo silva right now caused by toni kroos will be retired from the football very soon and madrid has no choice other than get a replacement for him. Luka modric was not a young player anymore. We must accept the truth that if this time madrid is not in the best form but it can still show the best performance against another big club.

Madrid midfield are weak that's why Their experiencing this form recently. Toni is preparing for his retirement, casemiro sold to man utd and Modric getting older. These are the power house of Madrid, once these three are affected the form will drop drastically.
Inspite of their recent form, they're still better than Barcelona and will definitely win the Laliga this season if they improve or sign another good midfielder.

It seems that they are not serious about competing in the Copa Del Rey, so they have repeatedly failed and even been thwarted by small clubs. The real problem is that they were knocked out by a small club which by comparison looks a long way from all angles. They can compete at the highest level, but they can't compete against a weak club. That's something that is completely unimaginable realistically. In the end everyone will think they have no ambition to win trophies here, everyone will think that and won't stop thinking they are struggling.

[bering]

For Valencia vs Cadiz that during this season Valencia has scoring 14 goals and gets 4 winning results at home i think this proven Valencia was performing well at their home ground even Real Betis was lose against them at that time so after seeing these records i might to think Valencia can able to win this match moreover Cadiz condition wasn't really good and i know Cadiz was attempts to bounce back after only gets 2 wins from 15 matches but Cadiz looks hard to wins everytime they met Valencia and meetings records has showed Cadiz only can able to wins once from 9 matches against Valencia so i am confident Valencia could be win the match today

[blue Snow]

Villareal vs Madrid,

Madrid have statistic better play on away, they have 7 won on play away, and have target to 8th on Estadio de la Ceramica. For sure is not easy, because Villareal is look on fire, in the last 6 matches they always win, but what make me doubt is they lost versus Mallorca on they home 0-2. Which this situation, I really sure to bet on Madrid even have a bit of doubt about Vedat Muriqi, Mallorca player who listed on top score table.

In the previous match Barcelona failed to get full points so that the match against Atletico Madrid could be an opportunity for Barcelona to get 3 points, in terms of statistics and performance of course Barcelona is still better than Atletico Madrid but that does not mean it will be easy for Barcelona to beat Simeone troops because playing at Wanda Metropolitana, so far we have known Atletico Madrid as a strong team when facing big teams and it is clear that the hard game that has been the hallmark of Atletico Madrid will be able to destroy the beautiful game from Barcelona later, even though it is possible that Barcelona will get 3 points but I think Barcelona will only win with a narrow score because the hard style of defense of Atletico madrid often makes the strikers of the opposing team feel frustrated.

These three players are of course very influential for the Real Madrid team so it's only natural that this season the performance of the Madrid squad has decreased slightly, since the departure of Casemiro the confidence of the Madrid players has decreased because several times we have seen them appear inconsistent when undergoing different matches last season they always performing consistently and very motivated when you want to compete.
Yes, it's true that Madrid must immediately look for several other players so that they will become stronger again to win the Spanish league trophy this season.
