La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[hyudien]

Congratulations to Barcelona for the beautiful victory they got from Atletico Madrid. Barcelona achieved the winning goal at 22 minutes, hoping that Atletico Madrid will equalize the goal before the end of first half but Barcelona players never allow such opportunity come to Atletico Madrid till the end of the match. Now that Barcelona has moved to first position in the la Liga league table, showed that Barcelona coach is doing well in this season because there is hope that Barcelona will win this title. I don't think, Real Madrid can take this position from Barcelona before the end of this tournament, because their performance is reducing gradually in this season compared to last season.

Great game of Barcelona, but I must say that on 93 minutes Griezmann could have equalized the score, but by some miracle Araujo carried the ball already from the ribbon. Araujo just healed his injury and immediately saved Barcelona. In this game the team showed its character, Pedri created a goal out of almost nothing, and Ferran was not afraid of Savich and went to the end. In general, everyone likes the Barcelona more, even if without a goal extravaganza, but with character and fight to the end.

Barcelona has grown up with young players this season and have achieved success game after game. Maybe it's not too early to see young players who have been able to work together on the field. Pedri and Dembele are indeed important assets for Barcelona. Xavi is now starting to regain trust. If this season Barcelona is able to secure the standings and continue to play nicely, then the Champions League door can be a little more flexible. In the match against Atletico Madrid, we can see that this narrow result has brought Barcelona a little away from Real Madrid.

Yes, Barcelona was able to achieve quite encouraging results at the Metropolitano. Imagine, the Blaugrana were able to win an important victory at home to Atletico and further strengthen their position at the top of the standings. This is the first time Barcelona have won and scored at the Metropolitano since 2019.

After this match, I see that Barcelona's chances of winning the championship are increasingly open. Xavi must really take advantage of the current situation and must maintain consistency. Even though the season is still long, the three-point advantage over Real Madrid is an important asset for the Catalan team.

The difference of 3 points has not made it safe for Barcelona in the race for the trophy considering only 16 matches. Barcelona's struggle is still far away regarding the La Liga season title. But the victory at the Metropolitano against Atletico Madrid gives Xavi Hernandez a slight advantage in case they suffer an unexpected defeat while their rivals win.

The victory over Atletico deserves to be celebrated by Barcelona because since 2019 the Blaugrana have always found it difficult to win even though under 2019 they have beaten Atletico Madrid, namely on 02 Feb 2017 with a score of 1-2 when their stadium name was still Vicente Calderon.

people think that real madrid is able to beat villarreal and while barcelona will lose against athletico madrid, on the other hand it is real madrid who loses to villarreal and barcelona who wins the game, barcelona's narrow victory yesterday maintains their position at the top of the standings

The game between sevilla and Getafe was a good one for Sevilla but it wasn't an easy winning for sevilla because Getafe gave them a good fight defensively, in the first 36 minutes Sevilla got their first goal of the match and the deserved it, before This match Getafe has only lost once in the last six that placed them on a good side too but Sevilla being the host of this match never relented, this winning for sevilla might be a good opportunity for them to turn things around and start winning match.

Getafe was surprisingly having bad performance against sevilla while so many people expected getafe to win against sevilla. Sevilla was playing so well during the match against getafe. Sevilla was trying to secure its position from the relegation zone. Sevilla has avery bad performance. Im not even feeling doubt to believe sevilla will be losing in the match against getafe but the result from the match is really unpredictable. Getafe statistically better compared with sevilla in any aspects. I hope that sevilla can consistent with its performance

A difficult and very tactically competent match from Xavi. Once again, good defensive play saves Barcelona and allows them to take a three-point lead over Real Madrid. Barcelona can compete with Real Madrid, Xavi managed to significantly improve the team, and if it weren’t for the lost matchs with Inter in the Champions League, then one could say that everything is fine. But at the moment there is still work to be done, Barcelona needs good results in the euro arena.

That's really strong; another good defensive game. Barcelona have allowed only 6 goals in 16 games and scored 35 goals. Only 6 goals, that's extremely strong and no other top league has such a great statistic. Only Juventus Turin has allowed 7 goals in 17 games. FC Barcelona is now 3 points ahead because Real Madrid lost against Villarreal. Dembele gets the 3 points for Barcelona and Lewandowski is back next time.

Marcos Acuna's first score with a header was entirely unexpected. The goalkeeper did nothing at all. Rafa Mir was definitely the free man and nobody was attacking him, so I wouldn't have been shocked if he didn't score the second goal. Early in the game, Gatefe had numerous opportunities to put themselves in position for an equalizer but they squandered them all. Sadly, I was aware that it was already too late for them to get an equalizer when they scored their first goal.

Barcelona managed to get an important victory to get away from Real Madrid, one goal scored by Dembele lasted until the end of the game. Atletico tried hard to find a goal in this match, the struggle of Atletico players was in vain due to not being able to penetrate Barcelona defense which was getting stronger. The duet of Christensen and Araujo at the heart of Barcelona defense was very good, they were able to withstand all attacks from Atletico players.
This victory has further increased the confidence of the Barcelona players after last week they were only able to draw with Espanyol, now Xavi must take advantage of every opportunity so as not to lose points in the continuation of La Liga.

To be honest, I am more interested in watching the Real Madrid vs Villarreal match than Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid, because I have already bet on Real Madrid in the match, I think Real Madrid will occupy the top of the standings later  

I am tempted to place a little bet also, but on Barcelona's game rather than Real Madrid's. Although, now that you mention it, it seems to be a safer bet the one you have already made. I still have a few hours to decide.

In any way, after both matches we will see in retrospect what was the best decision to be made, and I hope we are right.

Well, it seems that we both would've lost our bets if we followed our guts (did you finally placed it? in that case sorry for your loss).

Real Madrid lost 2-1 against Villarreal, and Barcelona won Atlético de Madrid 0-1. This is a good reminder that, in sports, there is also some degree of "lottery".

Barcelona win over Atletico further extended its lead at the top of the standings. The reason is, on January 22 Barcelona will add further points from Real Madrid. Playing advantage is clearly an advantage for Xavi and his troops. So Real Madrid must be able to beat Atletico Bilbao with high results. But unfortunately, Bilbao is often a team that looks extraordinary when facing strong teams. It cannot be underestimated at all, Madrid is in a transitional period in which they should look for alternative replacements in the future.

Xavi made some improvements in Barcelona's defense, but they still need to work on the offensive side, in many matches I watched for them, they haven't been able to win with more than one goal which is risky case and can waste some points in case the opponent manged to score. In this match, they scored early, but still couldn't score more than one goal. Anyway, it's important win for Barcelona as they retook the lead of the ranking table.

To be honest I didn't watch this fight, because in my country this fight was broadcast at 3 am. but, armed with statistical records and match highlights of these two teams. as I previously estimated, this fight will be won by Barcelona with a narrow score. and yes, Barcelona actually won the battle. although, Atletico had many chances to equalize but fortunately Barcelona's defense was very solid. so that Atletico find it difficult to penetrate Barcelona's defense.

in the end, Barcelona again kept their distance from Real Madrid with a difference of 3 points. from the statistics of the results of this match, Barcelona's defense looks very solid, especially since Ronald Araujo has returned to become the main pillar in Xavi's main squad. Barcelona only need to maximize their front line, especially to give their young player, Ansu Fati, a chance.
next, Barcelona will host Getafe and it shouldn't be a difficult opponent for them to beat.

You are right, with the game that Barcelona has, the score should be more than 1 point. If not, the potential for playing with a thin score is clearly wasting the points that are in plain sight. Currently, they are leading by 3 points in the first standings. But with every fight getting slim, the odds would be easily beaten by the opponent. If the next Barcelona match is still with a thin score, it means that Xavi must be able to fix this. Playing a draw or a narrow score is still not enough if you have entered the Champions League next season.

besides that barcelona will face Getafe of course it will be easy for barcelona to get 3 full points in the match later, if later real madrid is held to a draw or loses against bilbao, BTW in a few days madrid will meet villarreal again in the Copa Del Rey event, I think madrid will avenge them there

Real Madrid's defeat by Villareal has indeed made Real Madrid have to be willing not to get any points in that match. And in the next match Real Madrid must be able to win the match. because if Real madrid loses or draws. then the difference in points with Barcelona will definitely be even more. while Barcelona in the next match seems to have a high chance of victory. because Getafe is really not in good shape right now. in fact they have lost to Sevilla. so that Barcelona should be able to get full points from the next match against Getafe.

It is not attack that wins match, defence does win match. If thr Barcelona defence is good enough not to conceive and their attack gets 1 goal. They have gotten a complete 3 points.
If Xavi can put more efforts in his defence line, Real Madrid will find it difficult to meet up with Barcelona, let alone to overtake them because Real Madrid isn't scoring much goals their own.

Two different results from this eternal rival again put Barcelona 3 points away from Real Madrid. What a disappointing result this week, because I honestly predicted that Real Madrid would win, but in reality they had to lose to Villarreal. On the other hand, Barcelona, they were able to keep the goals they scored in the first half until the game ended. In fact, Atletico Madrid had the opportunity to steal at least 1 point, but it seems that they were unlucky to do that.

after the world cup break, barcelona continues to show their good performance and it's no wonder why they are at the top of the la liga standings at this time. the next copa del rey matches is barcelona against ceuta while marid is against villareal, it looks like an easy match for barcelona while for madrid, meeting with villareal again is a chance for revenge.

[SatoPrincess]

Barcelona were able to hold on to the lead until the end of the game. Simeone and his team will be very disappointed with the team's result tonight, it was difficult for them to make a come back from one goal lead, they created chances but were unable to convert any thanks to Barcelona's defense line that made it possible for Barcelona to hold on to the win till the end and thank to Dembele who gave Barcelona the lead after a disappointing outing in the world cub. Xavi will be so glad they could get a win and continue to lead the table in January.

A very valuable victory for Barcelona because with this result they are again 3 points ahead of Real Madrid, who in the match had to taste defeat to Villarreal. Actually, the game from Atletico Madrid can match the strategy from Barcelona, they even have quite a lot of opportunities, it's just that they fail to convert even one chance into a goal. They worked very hard to equalize, but the efforts they put in didn't pay off so they had to be willing to have 1 goal created by Dembele cost them. With this result, Ateltico must be stuck in 5th position in the standings table.
