La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Jody.Drummer]

Barcelona has really done quite a good job in trying to improving their performance this very season as compared to where they were last season, and the evidence is seen in their move from behind "second position" to have overtaken Real Madrid who were initially toping the la Liga table and now has moved into the first position, and has also maintained this position till date, even though they've had a rough season in the champions league this season, but their performance in la Liga has remained so strong and an outstanding one.

Not only did they have a difficult season in the Champions League, but in the Europa League they also experienced the same thing by being eliminated from the competition. But that can be an advantage for them because Xavi Hernandez and his team can focus more on La Liga in order to win the title this season and become Xavi Hernandez's first La Liga trophy as Barcelona coach. Now they are ahead of Real madrid in points, it should be a little easier to win the championship, especially they are already more than 2 games ahead of Real Madrid.

This interesting match from the team who try to far away from degradation zone, both teams have almost balanced odds, and maybe a bit difficult to guess who deserves to win. Cadiz has benefits as a host but there is still doubt because 5 core players are still injured, while the opponent will turn with the full team. I think is not bad if I put a bet on the guest which make my money be 3x

Their conditions can be said to be balanced, but when I look for a win for one of these clubs, I am always confused because usually matches at the bottom of the standings are sometimes not easy to predict.
Even so, the stakes are very interesting and very tempting, it's just that I'm still not too confident to choose one of them because the risk is still big.
What is certain is that I will watch this match because there are usually lots of opportunities and games at the bottom of the standings are always fun to watch.

The match will not be easy to predict because they are well aware that their opponent is also in a bad state and they both need a win to get away from the relegation zone. This becomes natural when 2 clubs at the bottom meet.
Cadiz and Getafe do not have very significant differences, so a draw is very likely. I can't say it's an advantage or not when Cadiz hosts, because at the same time maybe they will lose some key players.

The whole point about Barcelona is their coach Xavi, he is not even experienced as his competitor in La Liga but still, he got better results with his team, currently, they are the first place in the table while Barcelona had many financial problems during this season and they could hire many superstars into their team also they are playing without Perdri and Dembele and Lewandowski and won the game against Real Madrid without these players, this can show use Xavi knows exactly how to win a game with this team even without his important players.

Indeed, it would be very unfortunate for the team if Barcelona could not win the La Liga title after performing so well. But I think Barcelona's arch-rivals Real Madrid will be a formidable obstacle to winning the La Liga title.

The fight between mediocre teams who want to avoiding relegation is sometimes unpredictable because they have equal target but indeed Getafe recent performance is more good than Cadiz because at least they only lose once from 5 recent matches

About players conditions probably Getafe will still played their key player Enes Unal and Cadiz should be careful to this player because lately they had showed outstanding performance with scoring 6 goals from 9 matches and for Cadiz i didn't see any important players from this team who got injured or suspension so probably Cadiz will playing with their best starting line up however in the last 2 meetings both of teams only can able to playing draw and today too not impossible the result of this match will be draw again

Two teams with the same vision to chase full points in order to improve their ranking. it is relatively difficult to predict who will come out as the winner. Getafe, who previously tasted victory against Girona, will be a motivation for them to continue this trend against Cadiz. from the Cadiz side they will definitely compete with full strength at home even without Ocampo.

Sevilla, who are struggling to improve their ranking in the standings table, will face Almeria this week. Almeria and Sevilla also collect the same points in the standings table so that their duel is sure to be quite fierce. Sevilla, which previously suffered a heavy defeat to Atletico Madrid, made them even closer to the relegation zone, Sevilla has a good chance to get back to winning ways against Almeria because Almeria is not a strong enough opponent for them, but in this match Sevilla have to play more  better than the previous game to beat Almeria.

I am not really fond of betting on those mid table or even relegation zone teams because of how much it is unpredictable. Even the worst team could beat the team that is like 15th or something, it's always unknown to me. I believe that the best thing to do right now would be making sure that I gamble on the teams I know.
Like for example, Real Madrid will play Espanyol, sure Espanyol could get a win or a draw and I am not saying that would be impossible but the most likely outcome is Real winning right? Or Barcelona plays Bilbao, they should be winning that too, or ATM playing Girona, they should win that too. These are a bit easier to predict games.

Getafe v Cadiz this match is going to be interesting. Both of them are in the lower mid position of the table. And this match is basically a must win for both of them. I said it must win because whoever loses in this match is going to be in danger of getting into the relegation zone. Or at least stay dangerously close to the relegation zone.

I absolutely agree that these types of matches are also very hard to predict. Because you never know which team is going to win. Some people like the unpredictability of these matches and some people don't. But it's interesting that when we are about to predict a big match like Real Madrid vs Barcelona, we don't mind. But to predict these types of mid-table matches, is really very tough.

Sevilla vs Almería

These two teams will compete on Sunday, as we know that both teams lost in the previous Laliga match and this will prove to both teams who will win. Previously, Sevilla was massacred when they had an away game at Atletico Madrid. Meanwhile, Almeria as the host, had to swallow defeat against Villareal. In terms of H2H, Sevilla has the upper hand, but the last meeting between the two proved that Almeria can beat Sevilla. I think this is a pretty tough game to predict the winner, even so maybe betting over 2 goals would be a pretty good option.

Cadiz has benefits as a host but there is still doubt because 5 core players are still injured, while the opponent will turn with the full team. I think is not bad if I put a bet on the guest which make my money be 3x

The two teams that will compete are quite evenly matched in many ways, however, the absence of several players will make a bit of a difference for the hosts. A draw will probably occur in this match, considering that their strengths are almost equal and I agree that if you try your luck betting on the away team, because they are more prepared than players who have not experienced there will be many changes in the line-up.

Cadiz vs Getafe is really difficult to predict, I personally won't bet now but maybe later I'll bet when this match starts and watch gameplay of these both teams. And indeed both team want to get points from this match considering that they are currently not far from relegation zone, so yes I also think the possibility of a draw could be a good option rather than pick Home or Away, although I'm interest in Away team also which previously can beat Girona very well.

30 minutes into the running time of the game still didn't show a significant change, but it was very good to see Getafe's performance in this match because considering the current conditions they had some very good opportunities even though in terms of ball possession they lost.
I think it could be good for Getafe to continue with this kind of strategy.

Sevilla's performance this season has been a very disappointing one I must say and even after they hired Jorge Sampaoli to manage the team after dismissing their former manager I still don't see a significant change in the team. They used to be the few top clubs that do challenge Barcelona and and Real Madrid in the Spanish La Liga. And they have the remaining fixtures of the season to save themselves from relegation and playing at home against Almeria who are also trying to survive from relegation will be a tight one but I think Sevilla are gonna come out victorious this weekend.

Real Madrid's rematch against Liverpool in the Champions League is going to be played only four days after their Espanyol game.

However I still don't expect a big rotation against Espanyol honestly. Because they have already captured a huge advantage against Liverpool. They are psychologically much better than them as a result. The rematch is in even Santiago Bernabeu which is another advantage for Real Madrid. At this point they need to focus on their La Liga games more to keep their claim for the title mathematically. Maybe it seems really difficult to catch up with Barcelona but who knows. Therefore they should be beating Espanyol home nicely.

[kawetsriyanto]

Real Madrid last successful win was against Liverpool. Lately, real Madrid isn't giving good results. They have gone through mill with Athletico Madrid and Real Betis,  recording a double chained draw in both matches,  losing 4 points. This are matches that were supposed to promote their proximity with FC Barcelona who seems unyielding in La liga top standing. I believe a win against Espanyol on Saturday will boost their confidence and also bring them back to their winning ways.

Yep. The 5 last matches of Real Madrid in La Liga look very unconvincingly. They only won 2 matches, got 2 draws, and got 1 loss. They missed 7 points, it was big points. While Barcelona won 4 matches and only got 1 loss. So, Barcelona can lead the La Liga standings with quite big point gaps. Real Madrid already too many missed full points (3 points).

Sure, Real Madrid needs a win today, they must get 3 points against Espanyol. A win may improve the morale of Real Madrid players, they may be more motivated to keep good performance in the next matches. But if they get a draw or a loss today, I assume Real Madrid players will have no longer the spirit to play in La Liga matches.

Difficult match, and the result is not on the game, Getafe deserved to score a goal, but Cadiz wins. Getafe still has a whole half ahead of them, in the game they should equalize, in the first half Getafe made 7 shots on target, which is a very good indicator, but Cadiz defends well. Sometimes there are days when the ball simply does not fly into the goal, but Getafe has a good chance to equalize the score, the most important thing is not to overplay in attack and not forget about defense.

I said it must win because whoever loses in this match is going to be in danger of getting into the relegation zone. Or at least stay dangerously close to the relegation zone.

Cadiz has been leading by 1 goal in the first half although they have smaller chances to score the goal. On the other hand, Getafe really missed many chances, whereas they actually have some good chances to score. But they really have a high lack of attacking lines. Less accuracy and effectiveness of the attacking lines of Getafe makes them quite difficult to score any goal. Whereas actually, they hold higher chances and ball possessions.

Sevilla's performance this season has been a very disappointing one I must say and even after they hired Jorge Sampaoli to manage the team after dismissing their former manager I still don't see a significant change in the team.

Actually, Sevilla has been getting better in several matches previously before losing and drawing. But, they missed so many chances to at least increase their performance in every match. That is why their position is dropped again almost into the relegation zone again. they have chances but unfortunately, they still cannot optimize the chance and are more worried from match to match. they are exactly terrible during this match

Indeed Cadiz wins in halftime they success to get the first goal from Sobrino header, actually Getafe better rather than Cadiz at there Getafe have some good opportunities for them to score first, especially Enes Unal which was very close right in front of Jeremias Ledesma. This game is a bit tense, Getafe have an attack that very dangerous, but they not lucky. Yes, you're right, Getafe still have a chance to equal the score in second half.

ancelotti will definitely rotate his strategy in facing Espanyol this week. The reason is strong that if Real Madrid is able to excel quickly in this match, surely several important players will be pulled out to maintain their energy for the match against Liverpool in the second leg. Real madrid is aiming for 3 points in the match against espanyol, so they will go down with the perfect squad without any core players to rest.

In laliga, real madrid wants to end the trend of draws in the last two matches because if real madrid fails to do that, they will find it difficult to reduce the gap in points with barcelona.  Benzema et al are expected to be able to finish the match against Espanyol with a win in tomorrow's match

It is exactly the close game that everybody expected. Not a go back and forth game, but a game that is all about exploiting the mistakes of your opponent.

In this game both are fighting to prevent themselves from being part of the competition to escape from relegation. It is what it is, but I thought we'd get to see more offensive power from Getafe.

[KTChampions]

I don’t know how this game can be decisive, given the fact that the chances of a La Liga title are practically non-existent. But due to the large margin of safety before the game with Liverpool, it seems to me that Real will play for their own pleasure and therefore they will win without problems (with or without Benzema), after all, the overall class of Real is clearly higher.

This season, they seem to have always struggled against low table teams, so I won't be surprised if it's a draw or loss. The la Liga is Barcelona's to lose this season. Real Madrid should start thinking about making vital signings next summer.

It's quite sickening that most of the attacks have to pass through the left flank while the right side is almost empty. Shut Vinicius down, and suddenly Real Madrid is struggling.

I am 100% sure that in the summer Real will solve the problem with the attack. They would have already solved it last summer if the bastard Mbappe was honest in his intentions (Real refused Haaland only because it was confident in Mbappe).
By the way, interesting quotes for the game Athletic - Barcelona:

3.55 - 3.35 - 2.16

It doesn't matter anymore but it looks like Barcelona will lose points - the double chance for Athletic is the clear favorite according to the bookies.

They have gone through mill with Athletico Madrid and Real Betis,  recording a double chained draw in both matches,  losing 4 points. This are matches that were supposed to promote their proximity with FC Barcelona who seems unyielding in La liga top standing. I believe a win against Espanyol on Saturday will boost their confidence and also bring them back to their winning ways.

Real madrid is aiming for 3 points in the match against espanyol, so they will go down with the perfect squad without any core players to rest.

Ancelotti may rotate some players but I doubt if he completely rests all the main players since it is a very important match, too. It is a home match and Real Madrid must get 3 points to shorten the point gap with Barcelona. I am sure Real Madrid really want to win today, they need to boost the mentality of Real Madrid players.

Regarding the next match against Liverpool, there is still enough time for them to take a rest. So, if some main players play full-time today, it won't be a very serious problem. As long as there is no injured, Real Madrid should win again against Liverpool in the next 2nd Leg.

2 draws in the last 2 matches have really been a problem for Madrid because after feasting against Liverpool they never even got anything decent in the match.
This must be ended immediately because the gap is getting bigger and with conditions like this it is clear that the mentality of the players will also be a little messy, especially in terms of confidence.

Real Madrid should stop with draw trend after last two games can't getting three points started against Atletico Madrid and Real Betis, will have change with player starting eleven against Espanyol today because save energy with regular player on Champion League on middle week against Liverpool.

But Real Madrid must not take Espanyol for granted and need to pick up 3 points to make the La Liga title race keeps competitive with their current gap in points from Barcelona. Should winning not only on Champion League second leg against Liverpool but also Real Madrid have get three points from Espanyol if won't loss La Liga tittle in this season.
