La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[DanWalker]

I haven't forgotten Dembele, it's just that I don't need to mention his name because I knew he was injured in late January. So I'll just add Pedri who has just been sidelined due to injury. For Raphina, I really don't know if she was injured due to trivial things like the information you provided.

Anyway, now there is news that it is Lewandowski's turn to suffer a hamstring injury during last night's match with Almeria. I think this is not a good thing especially in a few days there will be an El Clasico match in the Copa Del Rey Semifinals and this will definitely make Xavi confused about the formations for his players.

Previously, Barcelona also lost in the Europa league, and the next match in LaLiga also suffered a defeat against Almeria. Maybe this will continue for the next game. On March 3 Barcelona must face Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey. If Robert Lewandowski really does not recover from injury, it will be a bad start for Barcelona. But Real Madrid takes care of their players' condition to avoid injury, because they also have a prestigious match to fight for even though they have pocketed half of the tickets to the next round. That is, Barcelona still has a chance to win the game. But Real Madrid will not play casually when facing their rivals either. El Clasico is also part of a prestigious match. However, it became difficult for Barcelona when two other strikers were also injured, namely Ousmane Dembele and Ansu Fati. Who can replace Robert Lewandowski?

Barcelona lost against Almeria which is in the 15th position even after the win against Barcelona. And of course, this is not an ideal situation for Barcelona. Because you know, they are going to face Real Madrid in the next match. It is not going to be a La Liga match. It is going to be the first leg of Copa Del Ray. The main point is there are going to play against Real Madrid. which is the biggest opponent for Barcelona.

It is also sad to see Barcelona facing so many injury. And personally do not think Robert Lewandowski is being able to give Barcelona the service that person on actually wanted from him when they brought him in for €50 million. Things are not looking good for Barcelona. The most positive thing that Barcelona can think of right now is that they still have 7 points advantage in La Liga and they are at the top of the table.

Barca lost to Almera shouldn't be a set back for the team to win Laliga,since they are seven points ahead of their rival. I don't think the team will experience another defeat in their next three matches. Barca hasn't still recovered from the shock which Man united gave to them and that was why it affected their match with Almera. I don't think Real Madrid will be be able to win Laliga,I think the club wants to o focus more on UCL matches since it is more valuable than Laliga. Surprises are possible, in the sense that if Barca fail to be consistent in their matches, Real Madrid might snatch the league from them.

With the current situation and performance most chances Barcelona will have no problem for winning La Liga in this season as right now after end of 23 rounds they are clearly leading by seven points, and now they are having just La Liga title as their target after shocking exit from UEFA Europa Cup and Real Madrid which is also struggling with their performance have also good chance again in UEFA Champions League after their amazing performance against Liverpool in 1st leg match round of 16 even things are not easy for them.

But, they are also doing good and have good performance in all competition, but their last few matches give them setback in their title hopes and Barcelona which are having focus on La Liga title from day one are on their target and this lost is just wake-up call for them with this now they can fight back in coming matches as well.

We have also seen the difference between Barcelona's starting 11 and their rotation. Unfortunately, Kessie, Sergi Roberto, Eric Garcia are not players at the current Alba Barcelona level. Eric Garcia makes mistakes in every game I see, both in CL and in the league. Alba pattern makes the back side a highway to the opponent. Barça lost 3 points in a game where they could break the league because of Xavi's rotation sickness. Pedri's absence was felt deeply, especially in the breaking moments of the match. Barça still has a big advantage for the championship. If it is not lost to Real Madrid in the home field, a troublesome process will not be entered.

Villarreal will attempts to bounce back from this match after 4 consecutive loses and indeed if we see from squad quality Villarreal is better than Getafe but Getafe recent performance were better than Villarreal and i can see big progress from them that in the last 3 matches Getafe were gets 1 wins from Valencia and draw from Atletico so this is quite better if we compared to Villarreal

From team conditions Getafe didn't have any problem because so far no players who got injured or suspension but the opposite conditions from Villarreal that i saw at least 4 players who cannot play and mostly dominated by midfielders and regarding match results after seeing the recent conditions for both of teams i think possibly the match ended with draw because in my opinion Getafe will attempts not lose especially for away matches and this options has odds @3.70

I agreed with you about this match currently Villarreal is having tag of worst team in last few matches with just one win in their last five games, and they are facing downhill task with Getafe is surely right now having improvement and their draw against Atlético Madrid is big surprise and moral booster for them with most chances this match is going to be challenging for the both teams with Villarreal try their best for end of their four matches losing streak and visitors will also try their best for having positive result from their current form even Villarreal is strong and having enough quality for performing good but things looking not easy, and we can expect draw or close win for the home team because they are also now looking for change of fortune and better results before its having worst end for them in this season.

[Docnaster]

It sounds quite strange, because you get the feeling that Barcelona is incredibly dependent on Lewandowski. They can play without him, the result won't change. He was on the field today and what changed? They still couldn't score, what's the problem then? I think they were not built for this game at all, that's all.

The most difficult matches that Barcelona or Real Madrid play are the matches against the teams that fight to stay in La Liga next season. Almeria is one of them. It was very unfortunate for Barcelona to receive an early goal, as well as wasting a lot of scoring opportunities in both halves. Today's goal was the first goal Barcelona received in the last four rounds. Nonetheless, this result will restore the competition between Real Madrid and Barcelona, and keep the enthusiasm up until the next La Liga Clasico.

Basically you are right, but I think the intrigue is not so strong, the gap between them is 7 points. Barcelona looks very good this season, after the elimination from the Europa League they will do everything to take the title of Spanish champion, because it will be their only title. But I agree, a lot still depends on El Classico, it's soon, so the intrigue can be solved in three weeks

Barcelona is no doubt good towards the end of this season and I knew and concluded that Barcelona cannot be overtaken by Real Madrid.  But as Barcelona failed to win Almeria I was forced to have a second thought about it, but there is no much time for wonders.
The Champions of laliga is almost obvious and decided.

There are some reports saying Lewandoski is has a discomfort and would miss the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi finals match against Madrid. If these reports are true then that would be a very big blow for Barcelona because they are already without Pedri and Dembele. Although Lewandoski has not been at his very best in recent week for Barcelona, he's a very big influence in their attack. He links up well with his teammates and provides spaces for his teammates to run into. Barcelona fans will hope the reports are false because they will be in trouble without their top scorer.

[Ahli38]

Celta vigo took the 3 points with 3 goals. It must be said that celta vigo, who got 3 points with a dominant football at home, made a good move to get rid of the bottom. Before the match both teams had equal points and now celta vigo is in a better position.
I was surprised that Barcelona lost. It felt strange to lose away to a team like Almeria. But we can say that it was for the better, at least the points difference with real madrid didn't widen.

Celta vigo has been slowly showing good performance improvements lately. even Celta vigo has given a few surprises in their last matches. such as holding Real Sociedad to a draw, beating Real Betis and also beating Athletic Club. so it's no wonder Celta vigo was able to beat Valladolid with a lot of scores.

Barcelona's defeat of Almeria has indeed been a surprise this week. Almeria's defense should be appreciated in this regard. because he was able to withstand the pace of attacks from Barcelona who kept trying to penetrate Almeria's defense. even very surprising to see Barcelona who only had one shot on target.

[Masplanc]

The results obtained by Barcelona were very surprising, they lost to Almeria who were in the relegation zone. I can't think that this result will come to them, because clearly on paper Barcelona is the team that should be able to win this match. They could not take advantage of the opportunity to widen the points that came to them, because in the previous game Real Madrid could only draw with Atletico Madrid. Very very unfortunate.

The performance of Barcelona I am kind of being worried  if they can really win the league this season,  it as if Barcelona is struggling to perform well in their games. If Barcelona fails to remain consistent it will be a total waste of effort of xavi works and will count to nothing.

I didn't see that on the news so far about Lerandoski but this can be a piece of very bad news for Barcelona because they are currently playing without Perdi and Dembelle as you already said and that's why they could perform well enough against Manchester United and they lost the game while if that's true and Lewndonski misses some matches they will have serious problems in their team not sure how Xavi is going to solve this.

[Velvet78]

Villarreal made a really bad start to the game maybe but they have made a comeback later on thankfully.

They are still leading by 2-1 but it is still a quite risky score though. Villarreal really need this win after a losing streak for four weeks in the league. Something has been going terrible for them and it is hard to discover the reason. This bad form has affected them really badly in the standings as well. They need to fix their issues at once if they want to qualify for a tournament. Winning this game would be a big help. They are the better playing side so they shouldn't give this away to Getafe.

The news about Lewandowski already in a lot site, I saw it on the official Barcelona website, it doesn't say what date Lewandowski will be available again. Of course, The injured Lewandowski and Dembele will cost Barcelona a goal machine there to at least score against Real Madrid, but Barcelona still have enough defenders for match Copa del Rey so it's Real Madrid will still be difficult to win.

[Pokapoka124]

Sevilla suffered a painful home defeat ago against Osasuna, a team that they normally should from, especially in their own stadium. But this season it is all rough at Sevilla. At the bottom, Elche fights for every point, but the counter is only at 9 points while 23 games have already been played. 17 Goals for is not good but not very bad either, but it is about the number of goals that is now no less than 48, by far the most number of goals against all teams that are active in the competition.

After seeing Sevilla's performance and form in the Europa League I expected so much more than the performance they showed against Osasuna yesterday. At this stage of the season Sevilla need to be taking home all points to move up the table, I was expecting them to win or get at least a draw but Sevilla lost all 3 points.

Barcelona's match against Almeria tonight was very embarrassing because they had to lose against a team that shouldn't be too difficult to beat. Barcelona surprised many of its fans, and I'm sure tonight many lost money from gambling because they thought that Barcelona could win, but on the contrary, Barcelona lost to Almeria.

The results were definitely unexpected from Barcelona especially at this stage where they have Real Madrid on their backs also competing for the league trophy. This is the time to give their best performance in every game and go for win to secure their lead and increase the gap from Real Madrid.

Yes I think it has already been confirmed that he will miss the 1st leg. That's quite bad for Barcelona and they can be lucky that Real Madrid didn't use the chance properly this weekend and only got one point. The coming weeks will be close and Real Madrid wants to have a chance to still compete for the La Liga title, they should definitely be there when Barcelona isn't.

They still have the clasico game in La Liga in about three weeks as well. I didn't think that this season might turn into a close race again, but things might be looking very differently by the end of March. Real is is still in business and now Barcelona might be a little bit more nervous.

What do you mean by "discomfort"? Explain it, please.
Anyway, if you read the report, why don't you enclose it here?
 

Of course, Barcelona will be in trouble if Lewandowski can't play against Real Madrid. Lewandowski is their machine goal and the only strong striker in Barcelona. Moreover, it is a semi-final round, which team to win this match seems to be the winner. There are only 4 teams left, only Real Madrid and Barcelona are big teams. I am very sure that the team wins the El Classico can be the winner of Copa Del Rey this season.

He is definitely out and this is another player who cannot play because previously there were also players like Dembele and Pedri who were doubtful.
It's definitely a bit more complicated now for Barcelona although the focus is still on La Liga now but losing in the Semi finals and El Clasico is definitely going to be a bad time for them.

[SOKO-DEKE]

The Villarreal vs. Getafe game is now over, and Villarreal was able to win 2-1 and secure 3 points, which was the most important thing. In fact, it was Villarreal's comeback that really won me over because after Getafe's opening goal in the first place, I had given up on them and thought they might lose or draw the game. But seriously, with very great effort, they were able to draw the game at the first half, and in the second half, Villarreal added a second goal to seal the victory.

[Velvet78]

Real Madrid must be grateful for Almeria to have won against Barcelona. While we were expecting the point gap to become 10 points Real Madrid just got closer to them by one point. But this doesn't happen very often as well. Real Madrid need to take advantage of this kind of rare situations with becoming victorious. Otherwise there is no way they have are standing a chance about catching up with Barcelona.

There are still 15 more games to be played in the season. Real Madrid aren't late for anything but they just need to win every single one of their games and look for Barcelona's new mistakes.

[JeffBrad12]

A bit surprise to see that if barcelona was losing against almeria. I thought that if barcelona will make the gap even bigger but it seems like that barcelona is starting to face problem with its performance. Real madrid must be thankful to the almeria caused by it was able beating barcelona. The result from the match barcelona against almeria is unpredictable for sure. I thought that if barcelona gonna win easily against almeria but i were wrong about that.

What a game by almeria even though tthis club was losing ball possessions against barcelona

Barcelona players over spent their energy in Europa League against Manchester United. The defeat at Old Trafford makes them feel bad and affected their performance in La Liga too. This defeat is not the end or too terrible for Barcelona but they wasted a good chance to expand their difference to be bigger against Real Madrid. The competitor of Barcelona just got a draw in a Madrid derby.

It seems the defeat in old trafford was affecting barcelona's mentality. I saw that from the last formation against almeria if barcelona played without pedri and dembele. The barcelona's strategy effectiveness already decreased so hard. It's not as good as when dembele, gavi, pedri were playing together. Another bad news was coming if lewandowski was facing injury. That means if barcelona will not able to face real madrid with its good attackers. that's very sad to see that if real madrid is also having very big chance to win the copa del rey cup. As a guy who will bet for real madrid and i really hope more key players of barcelona will not able to perform in the match against real madrid.

Anyway, Barcelona still have good gap against Real Madrid and they are still controlling the title race. Real Madrid will have to play in Champions League and it's a big disadvantage for them as Barcelona will likely 100% focus for La Liga.

It's for la liga but not for copa del rey. Barcelona is also having a chance to take copa del rey and this probably last trophy that can be gotten by barcelona other than la liga. There are lots of jornada to come. It's likely real madrid may give us surprise at the end of season.

[snipie]

The Villarreal vs. Getafe game is now over, and Villarreal was able to win 2-1 and secure 3 points, which was the most important thing.

Villarreal won this game after 4 successive failure and after losing many points leading to their drop from the ranking to the 10th place after this round.

There are still 15 more games to be played in the season. Real Madrid aren't late for anything but they just need to win every single one of their games and look for Barcelona's new mistakes.

Indeed there is enough time left for Real Madrid to fight for the title but let's not forget how many easy games were missed by them... If they want to compete then they have to keep winning not getting draws or defeats.

[logfiles]

Real Madrid need to take advantage of this kind of rare situations with becoming victorious.

They should have won the Atlético Madrid match to begin with, but they never did. The gap would now be around 5 points, which would have been manageable If they beat Barcelona in the upcoming El Clásico to reduce the gap to a possible 2 points.

Otherwise, there is no way they have are standing a chance about catching up with Barcelona.

We will know once the season is done. This is football and anything can happen.

[TopT3ns]

The news about Lewandowski already in a lot site, I saw it on the official Barcelona website, it doesn't say what date Lewandowski will be available again. Of course, The injured Lewandowski and Dembele will cost Barcelona a goal machine there to at least score against Real Madrid, but Barcelona still have enough defenders for match Copa del Rey so it's Real Madrid will still be difficult to win.

By losing two attacking players who are the spearhead of the Barcelona team's strength, this will make it difficult for them to get a win. Hopefully, Robert Lewandowski and Dembele still have the opportunity to contribute against Real Madrid. Barcelona lost their last match against Almeria, so when they play against Real Madrid, they will also lose badly because they will definitely be beaten until they are no longer in the mood to compete.
