La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[nara1892]

Atletico Madrid have at least secured themselves in top four but this is still not enough for a team like them of course. Atletico Madrid have a squad full of really skilled players. These players really deserve to be a part of a title competition in the La Liga in my opinion. Simeone can't make this team be in it for two seasons unfortunately. I mean the recent two seasons are nearly the same for them. They were even worse in the Champions League this season as they didn't see beyond the group stage.

They really need substantial changes from now on. This should start with Simeone's departure and the arrival of the right manager for this team. Atletico Madrid need to reach their full potential after doing this.

However, positions 1-3 are now filled and cannot be replaced.
Now I think for myself right now the focus is probably on seeing who is going to be able to be in 4th at the end.

From a point of view of course this is still at stake for the trio even though in recent games Betis have had to suffer losses but with 10 games remaining for each of these clubs anything is still possible and it will be an interesting battle for them until the end of the season.

As long as Simeone is in charge of Atletico, I think the same thing will happen again. It's time for this team to win in one of the competitions, but with the capabilities possessed by Simeone it will be difficult to do that. They will only be as side actors in La Liga or Champions League and that has been proven for many seasons. There has been no significant improvement so far within the club. I think it's time for the club to overhaul everything, especially the change of coach is really needed.

While you are most likely right, putting it as if it was impossible to get somebody else take 3rd rank isn't reasonable. Atletico Madrid is still playing against Barcelona in an away game, against Villareal in an away game and against Real Socieded San Sebastian in a home game. So there is a bit of distance still to go until Atletico Madrid can be sure to end up on 3rd rank.

But would they drop to 5th rank? That is really unlikely as Atletico is 10 points ahead of the 5th rank. The qualification for the Champions League is all that counts for Atletico Madrid.

Under current conditions, this is actually still possible.
Atletico's closest competitor is Sociedad now and when we look at Sociedad's schedule for their remaining matches, we can see the steep road they can get.
The 3 clubs in the top 3 are currently Barcelona, Madrid and Atletico they have yet to face. On the other hand there is also Betis who can be said to be their rival this time in the race for the top 4 they have yet to face and it is clear that it will not be easy to get points there.
Atletico's condition is a little easier because they will only face Barcelona, Villarreal and of course Sociedad itself which is indeed a bit profitable for them when looking at the schedule.

Atletico Madrid still has the chance to catch up with Real Madrid's points, because at the moment they are only two points away from the number two position in the standings. Atletico Madrid is on a positive trend and so far they are unbeaten in the 11 matches that have taken place, for La Liga Atletico Madrid's achievements are not bad in my opinion, but I agree that in the Champions League they did not get a place as usual in the previous season.

Next season there will be a number of changes that must be made by Atletico Madrid, one of which is bringing in players who have skills above the average players currently owned and as far as I know Diego Simeone is still the right coach for Atletico Madrid. But what needs to be fixed are some of the players and trying to bring in a much more productive one.

I agree that Atletic Madrid may overtake Real Madrid since it is only 2 point difference. But it looks difficult for Atletico Madrid. They still have some big matches (against Barcelona, Real Sociedad, and Villareal). I assume Atletico Madrid may miss some points in these matches. While Real Madrid seems to have no big matches anymore, they only play against small teams. So, we can assume that Real Madrid will win all the remaining matches and ends this season in 2nd place.

By the way, if Atletico Madrid can maintain their good performance, they are very possible to finish in the top 4. I'm quite happy that Atletico Madrid will play in UCL for the next season. They already improved their game quite well, it is very different from the 1st half of this season.

I don't think it will be too difficult if Atletico Madrid can secure 3 points in the upcoming game. Almeria is Atletico Madrid next opponent, I think they will be able to get full points in this match, especially Atletico Madrid in a pretty good situation against Almeria where Diego Simeone's men have recorded 5 consecutive wins.
even Atletico Madrid have not lost in the 12 matches they have played.
where was their last defeat against Barcelona.

So with a fairly perfect run in Laliga in the last 12 matches, Atletico have been able to stick closely to Real Madrid in the standings with a close enough point difference. I think Atletico Madrid will take this opportunity to shift Real Madrid ranking in the coming weeks.

There is still hope like this, but I never felt this would happen this season. Even though the points are still possible and for sure Madrid have focused on more important things such as the Champions League and Copa del Rey but I still feel they will not let Atletico take their current position in 2nd place in the standings.

The third position on the table is safe for Atletico Madrid and I don't think there is the possibility for them to lose this position but these three teams after Atletico Madrid are all near together and they can change their position at any time if a team lose some points however I think regarding these three teams Villareal but more chance to take the fourth place of the table based on their recent performance we saw.

[Iranus]

But in the end this didn't change until the second half whistle ended and the same goalless score stayed on the scoreboard until the end.
To be honest I thought it was quite surprising because I actually thought that the second half would be more interesting.
There were some very good opportunities created in this match but it's a shame that these opportunities still can't be maximized because apart from the Girona players who are very disciplined in their performance, on the other hand Barcelona also couldn't do well in this match.

Girona used to be very disciplined defensively, but now they are a different team and their defensive play is often not as good as it used to be. Barcelona's defense is very good, they still conceded only 9 goals in 28 matches, so it turns out that Girona cannot score, and Barcelona simply did not succeed, but still Barcelona increased their lead over Real by one point, because Real lost your game.

Barcelona lost two points against Girona and this can give them the chance to Real Madrid to get closer to this team. Girona played fully defensive and they just tried to do not to give the space in their field to Barcelona to close to scoring a goal this result was not bad for a team like Girona but I was expecting to see Barcelona winning this game yesterday.

I thought Barcelona would win this match and increase their points gap with Madrid. Madrid failed to win their last match against Villarreal. If Barcelona had won against Girona they would have gone 15 points ahead of Madrid. However, Barcelona is still 13 points ahead of Madrid.
However, if Barcelona doesn't lose the truck badly and continues to lose, the title is guaranteed. At the moment it is almost impossible for Madrid to close the gap of 13 points and go to the top of the table. The Barcelona team is still not completely stable. Lewa, Raphinha, and Fati in the attack are not playing well enough. They have to be more diligent.

Barcelona just making the bookies happy as that is the main reason I think they didn't manage to win yesterday night  .By doing so they keep all of us who bet on them unhappy but we are used with such scenarios as we always lose most of the time.
For the title fight though they can afford even to lose 4 more games and they would still be 1 point ahead of Real while 9 or 10 games remain in total so it look easy for them and impossible for Real Madrid to win the title.This is also a good reason to never bet on teams who are further ahead in distance in points.

A lot of gamblers lost their money in this match. Since Girona was not a strong team, everyone expected Barcelona to win this match. But the Barcelona team shared the points in this match disappointing the fans. Moreover, it cannot be said that Barcelona has performed very well. A more consistent performance was expected from the Barcelona players. Barcelona has a number of talented players in attack but their performances have been erratic.

It is almost impossible for Madrid to win the La Liga title. Unless a miracle happens. Even if Real Madrid wins all of their upcoming matches, the title is out of the question unless Barcelona drops points. Barcelona losing 14 points in 10 games is highly unlikely.

Barcelona, ​​who were unable to beat Girona and were only able to get a draw from that match, disappointed us a little. but Barcelona's performance has decreased since competing with Real Madrid in the Copa del rey. at that time Barcelona seemed to lose the sharpness of their attack. and once again they also get results that do not match our expectations. but I still believe Barcelona will return with their best performance in the next match. their point difference with Real Madrid at this time is also quite safe. so I'm not too worried about this result.

The position of the top three teams in the points table will not change until the end of the season. However, it is difficult to predict which team will finish fourth. Villarreal, Real Betis, and Real Sociedad are all likely to finish fourth in the table. Real Sociedad is now in fourth place. But their performance is not regular. Among these three teams, Villarreal's performances are currently the most consistent. The team is performing quite well. He even managed to win against Real Madrid in the last match. I think Villarreal is the best team for fourth place.

Vallecano will face Osasuna in the opening La Liga match this week. If we look at the standings, these two teams are very even and only 1 point away. But indeed Vallecano as the host will definitely be very favored to win. On the other hand, Osasuna, who got the winning capital in the previous match against Elche, will surely target another win in this match later. Especially if Osasuna manages to steal points in this away match, they will have a big chance to shift Bilbao's position. So I think the match will be quite exciting with a narrow win for Osasuna.

Taking into account that Athletic Club will play against Real Sociedad, and that the latter is very strong in La Liga this season, you are right that chances are for Osasuna to shift Bilbao, and this would be a hard hit for them after losing the semifinal of Copa del Rey to Osasuna. But Athletic will play at home, and it will be a Basque "derbi", so it won't surprise me if Real Sociedad doesn't win in the Cathedral this weekend.

Barcelona actually got the chance to widen the gap to 15 points after Real Madrid fell 2-3 to Villarreal in matchday 28. This draw certainly made the Blaugrana fail to widen the maximum gap with Real Madrid even though Barcelona leads the standings with a collection of 72 points from 28 matches, 13 points ahead of Real Madrid in second place when the season has only 10 games left. Barcelona should be able to play even more seriously to keep winning, especially against Girona, who actually have the upper hand to win it.

Xavi also regretted that Barcelona failed to win over Girona. He highlighted the bluntness of the front line and the lack of effectiveness in converting opportunities into goals. Xavi also considers the draw against Girona to be an alarm for Barcelona. he emphasized that his team must evaluate and also improve. Barcelona should stay on their winning ways if they want to win La Liga this season and win the rest of the matches.

[makishart]

Even though Barcelona's performance has been a bit down, I think they will be able to secure the La Liga title. Because Real Madrid is far behind. At the same time, the main goal of Madrid is the Champions League. And so I wouldn't be surprised if Madrid dropped points in a few more matches. Barcelona, on the other hand, is now completely pressure-free. Since they are 13 points ahead of Madrid, Barcelona won't face any major problems even if they lose 2/3 matches. Barcelona will win the title this time.

You can't even judge the performance of barcelona. Getting drawn is not always a bad thing. Real madrid was losing points while barcelona still able to get 1 point. That means barcelona is in more advantage compared with real madrid. There was no change in the standing and nothing to be worry if you are a barcelona fan. barcelona was just making its chance to win la liga become even bigger since real madrid needs at least five matche sto surpass barcelona.

It's impossible for madrid to catch barcelona this time. Barcelona looks so strong in the domestic league compared yet real madrid has chances to get two trophies this year.

[Pulsar77]

We are in last ten match weeks in the league now and Sevilla can't be considered safe from the relegation zone as well. They are only five points away from this zone now and their performance is really alarming for being able to maintain their presence in the La Liga. They are trying to be successful in the Europa League at least because it is their only chance to make it to a tournament again. But I don't like their performance there much either. Manchester United are quite likely to eliminate them in this stage.

Hence I believe Sevilla should focus on the La Liga as much as possible to secure themselves. Their player quality isn't bad so they can do something at least from now on to get to a safe position in the standings.

Rayo Vallecano is favored because they are playing as the host. But Osasuna has the ability to steal points in this match. Not without reason because they also have good abilities, especially now that they are a team that will compete in the Copa del Rey final after they got rid of Atletico Bilbao in the semifinals. Indeed, I'm not too sure they can win, but even if they don't win it looks like they will be able to bring home 1 point.

Hence I believe Sevilla should focus on the La Liga as much as possible to secure themselves. Their player quality isn't bad so they can do something at least from now on to get to a safe position in the standings.

Although they are safer than other teams in the lowest positions of the standings, Sevilla is a team too big and it would be a shame if they get relegated. I still remember when Atlético de Madrid got relegated in 2000, in what they called "a short year in hell".

And I would say the same for Valencia. OK, Sevilla and Valencia are not Atlético, but they are still two of the biggest clubs in Spain, and the fact that both are still in danger at this point of the league is specially dangerous for both.

Their status as a big team does not guarantee that they will not be relegated. Many big teams have felt that, not only in La Liga, but other leagues have shown the same thing. Like it or not they have to focus on La Liga, I don't mean to forbid them from focusing on the Europa League, but considering their current unsafe position is very dangerous for themselves.
