La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Ratash]

Celta vigo and cadiz will have high stake games today they both need a win to get away from the relegation zone, cadiz has a much tougher game since valencia are in the middle of the table and they can put up a great performance but celta vigo game is much easier they will face the last team elche who managed to gather only four points in fifteen games the bookmakers offer great odds for them to win i think its a good bet.

I think Real Madrid will struggle a bit considering they are playing at home to Viallareal. But what is certain is that Real Madrid will still try to secure full points in tomorrow's match because they want to overtake Barcelona on the standings board, therefore Real Madrid will definitely play at full strength. Even so, Villarreal might not want to lose either because they also want to get into the top 4 of the standings by shifting Atletico Madrid's position.

The match will be interesting with the target of victory for both teams. Real Madrid is indeed a team that has a bigger chance than Villareal, but that doesn't mean that with the status they have it will be easy to beat Villareal who also want points in this match. Villarreal will definitely try their best to get points from the team that is now in second place with the same points as Barcelona.

It is an interesting matchday this one, because a priori, neither of the two leaders have an easy game, unlike what has happened in recent matchdays, when at least one of the two played against a weak opponent.

Madrid and Barcelona are playing away from home, and both are playing against strong teams, with Atletico Madrid in fourth and Villarreal in seventh. If one of the two manages to win and the other fails, in addition to the points advantage, they will gain an important psychological advantage.

it is undeniable that for now, Benzema is a mainstay of Real Madrid and his presence makes Real Madrid's front line much better.
but I don't think that Villarreal is a formidable opponent for Real Madrid because in terms of quality they are much different, it is Atletico Madrid who always make it difficult for Real Madrid, because derby matches make the match very tense.

I hope you will not ignore the draw for Villareal vs Real Madrid. I mean Villarreal have made Real Madrid drop points in the last few meetings, namely 4 draw in the last 6 meetings.

We all know the quality of Real Madrid, but Villarreal can surprise Real Madrid in this match. Last season, Villareal managed to draw against Real Madrid in 2 matches, isn't that a good proof that they should not be underestimated?

currently the competition with Barcelona is very tight, they have the same points and I think because of this, Real Madrid and also Barcelona continue to maintain consistency in every game to avoid making mistakes that will cost them points.

Real Madrid certainly has a higher chance of winning, but I can never underestimate Villarreal in that match. 0-0 or 1-1 is a result that might be fair, but not for all Real Madrid fans.

Valencia will try to win when they host Cadiz in the 16th week of the Spanish League this season. the duel between Gennaro Gattuso and Sergio Gonzalez's troops looks like it will be fierce, considering that the home team is trying to vent its frustration after losing in the last game.

In the Cadiz camp, will look at the match later as a promising opportunity to get out of the slump in the relegation zone. when referring to the meeting of the two teams in the previous match, neither Valencia nor Cadiz have shown dominance of superiority and in the last match ended in a draw. even so, Valencia has a higher chance of overthrowing the opposing team. Moreover, this match is their home ground, like it or not, Gattuso's squad must get full points, after all, Cadiz is not a team that is difficult for the home team to beat.

In my estimation, the home team will win this match but with a narrow score. betting under 2.5 goals seems ideal to me.

I mean Valencia is not "amazing" neither, they are 10th in the league right now but I agree that Cadiz is not even this league level anymore and will be going to second division for next season, so the difference is still big. I believe they will get an easy win unless they play in a stupid way.

When better teams play relegation zone teams they feel like the game is already done and they already got the win, but of course Cadiz players will not just let them win it, they will try their best, their best is not that great but if you let them then they could play better than you. So 100% of Cadiz plays effort is bigger than 30% of Valencia players effort, only if Valencia plays with 100% then they can win this game easily.

Currently, Barcelona and Real Madrid are at the top of La Liga. Real Madrid's XI is very strong. All the players of the team are performing well in every match. Real Madrid has a great chance to win the La Liga title. But to beat Real Madrid, the Barcelona team will have to train hard and implement strategy.

Villarreal will definitely try their best to get points from the team that is now in second place with the same points as Barcelona.

I have seen every game result when these two teams met. And in head to head Villarreal have only ever won once against Real Madrid and the rest were draws and three defeats. So tomorrow's game will be very difficult to predict because Villarreal often draws against Real Madrid at home, while Real Madrid really needs a win to reach the top of the standings. So obviously tomorrow's match will be very interesting to watch.

Real Madrid has a great chance to win the La Liga title. But to beat Real Madrid, the Barcelona team will have to train hard and implement strategy.

Real Madrid are better placed to win the League. They are in great form. Another advantage they have is that Barcelona is currently having a bad form since their return from the world cup break. In addition, even Athletico are not playing good football at the moment. We are aware that the financial constraint Barca is facing hindering them due to the Financial Fair Play regulations. The UEFA Financial Fair Play Regulations (FFP) are a set of regulations established to prevent professional football clubs spending more than they earn in the pursuit of success, and in doing so not getting into financial problems which might threaten their long-term survival.

According to Marca, Mathio Lahoz, the referee of Barcelona VS Espaniol match has been deleted from the list of referees for the next round of La Liga, the well-known Spanish referee has been controversial during the past period as he revealed 31 yellow card and 4 red cards in the last 3 matches he managed. The news indicated that it's unknown if Lahoz absence will be for short or long period. Actually, these days aren't the best for this referee as he also was sent home after managing the match between Holland and Argentina in the 2022 World Cup.

I also think Real Madrid is going to win the title.  Barcelona's performance doesn't seem like it.  Barcelona will be able to maintain their winning position.  But there is nothing to despair.  A football game can have any result at any time.

This is not about despair, but about competition and the struggle that has never stopped for the two teams (Barcelona and Real Madrid) this season because they are both in a solid position with the same number of points so both will continue to try their best to finish ahead at the end of the season. And now matches with any opponent in La Liga will be taken very seriously and meaningfully by them in order to gain full points.

This referee should be totally banned.  Otherwise something unexpected may happen in any important match or semi-final / final matches.  His previous record says so.

Mateu Lahoz is one of the top class referees in the world. If he made some mistakes lately it's not the end of the world. Other referees are no better. He already made plans about retirement and I don't blame him. He had a wonderful referee career and at the age of 45 it's his right to retire. We will always remember him good.


Today there are two matches and I expect favorites to win. Celta Vigo will play with Elche. Celta is in dangerous line and they urgently need to get three points to stay out of it. Elche is already in last place with no win and this season they are pretty bad, they probably will be the first team to get relegated. Celta win odds are pretty good if you think about it. The other match will be played between Valencia and Cadiz. Valencia lost against Villarreal last week. They should get easy three points against opponents like Cadiz to stay in top half of the standing. Top 6 is realistic target for Valencia, so they have to pass these matches without any point loss. Forwards are not that productive this season, only Cavani is going good. Kluivert, Duro and Castillejo should raise their performances and score more goals.

This referee really likes to issue cards it seems because he took out a lot of cards from his pocket during the Barcelona match against Espanyol and even if he didn't check the VAR maybe Espanyol would lose 2 of his players due to being sent off by this referee.
This is the second time he has been under scrutiny because previously the referee was also under scrutiny due to his actions which were like distributing cards in the previous world cup when Argentina met the Netherlands and even Messi commented on this action.

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

I think Barcelona just needs a better tactic, with a capable squad they always dominate every match, the only huge improvements might be of Xavi strategy. But Real Madrid I also no doubt that with Benzema there is still the possibility of winning the title again, I understand if many are guess they are the most favorite candidates.
In one hour there will be an interesting match, Elche vs Celta Vigo. This is probably the match has been waiting for Elche, this team there isn't 1 victory yet so far, is it possible they can get the full points?

Barcelona's only formidable opponent in La Liga is Real Madrid. Barcelona are often beaten by Real Madrid. So the coach of the team Xavi should identify their problems very well and work on them.

[Slow death]

Elche -  Celta Vigo

this is a very unpredictable game, on one side we have Celta Vigo that in their last 5 games they had 3 draws and 2 defeats and they have a sequence of 2 draws and in their last game they drew, so they are a team with many draws, on the other hand their opponent is in a very bad situation and in the last 5 games they have not managed to win at least 1 game, they have 4 consecutive defeats and 1 draw, for this game it is clear that Celta Vigo is the favorite to win the game, but your opponent will do everything to win this game and have a victory and end this cycle of bad results

Valencia - Cadiz

this is also another game in which it will be played by two teams that come from poor performance problems in their last 5 games, valencia in the last 5 games managed to have 3 defeats, 1 victory and 1 draw, and in their last game they had a draw, while their opponent their opponent in the last 5 games had 2 draws and 2 defeats and 1 victory, they are slightly better than valencia compared to the performance of the last 5 games and it should be noted that cadiz in their last one had a draw

[herurist]

Celta vigo and cadiz will have high stake games today they both need a win to get away from the relegation zone, cadiz has a much tougher game since valencia are in the middle of the table and they can put up a great performance but celta vigo game is much easier they will face the last team elche who managed to gather only four points in fifteen games the bookmakers offer great odds for them to win i think its a good bet.

Currently looking at Celta Vigo's condition when in terms of head to head they still won when they faced Elche because of the 6 matches they have run, Elche could only win once, draw 2 and lose 3 of course even though this is not a reference but this can be a great thing for Celta Vigo.
But the problem is they are still the same in terms of performance, their defense is still very bad until now so I think it's a little difficult to predict.

Since Alba and Sergio cannot be replaced at the moment.  So Barcelona should bring some changes in their game strategy.

[Distraction]

It is still very early to be confident about any side between Barcelona and Real Madrid to make it to the La Liga title now. Because they aren't much different from each other in the standings. They have the same points before anything else. Actually there is a difference between them now. It is that Real Madrid are much better than Barcelona in big matches. We have seen many examples of it as a proof so far in the season. This was the main reason why they had a horrible form in the Champions League.

If Barcelona don't win the next El Clasico in the league then their job might be more difficult for achieving the title. Of course being consistent against smaller teams is the key to the championship. But it feels like they will have similar forms in such matches.

[Falconer]

He already made plans about retirement and I don't blame him. He had a wonderful referee career and at the age of 45 it's his right to retire. We will always remember him good.

I also don't completely blame Lahoz for the number of cards he has issued in the last few games he has led. He was in the spotlight in Argentina's match against the Netherlands, then recently Lahoz was also questioned after taking charge of Barcelona's match against Espanyol. Both matches were very close with high intensity, both teams fouled each other a lot and that was worth the card although not all.

I think in the future we will remember the history of Antonio Mateu Lahoz like we remember the history of Pierluigi Collina. 

[LGD2Business]

Again, Iago Aspas scored an early goal. Celta Vigo is now playing more comfortably with the confidence of getting ahead early in the match. If they score the second goal, they will feel better. All of Elche's resistance will be broken. It's unfortunate that Celta is so low in the league, luckily they are starting to pick up. They couldn't win for 8 matches, they will come back to life with this match.
Elche's squad is very limited and frankly not of La Liga quality. In fact, they have a weaker roster than many 2nd league teams. They are even at the level of teams like Levante, Eibar, Las Palmas. Relegation to the 2nd division will not be a surprise.

[ginsan]

Real Madrid are better placed to win the League. They are in great form. Another advantage they have is that Barcelona is currently having a bad form since their return from the world cup break.

The UEFA Financial Fair Play Regulations (FFP) are a set of regulations established to prevent professional football clubs spending more than they earn in the pursuit of success, and in doing so not getting into financial problems which might threaten their long-term survival.

Barcelona is still in its best form because the draw against Espanyol cannot be said that Barcelona is in a bad situation, indeed sometimes we always expect to win in every game that will be played, but the reality on the field sometimes ends with unexpected results, losing full points in the first match after the world cup break was very painful for barcelona because the hope of wanting to widen the gap in points instead they lost that opportunity.

real madrid and barcelona are only the difference in goal productivity in the standings table and the next match will be the difference for the two top teams in Laliga at the moment. real madrid and barcelona both have opponents that are relatively difficult to beat in the upcoming match.
