La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Daniel91]

Did Zidane really say in this media interview that Atletico are favourites to win the Spanish championship? https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/55217123
A slightly odd statement for one Real coach.
Has Zidane lost faith in his team?
So far Real have not had a clear system of play with Zidane as coach but they have had a great invidual quality of players which has been delivering results but that seems to be slowly changing and Real are having big problems in the game this season.
Is it possible that Real currently have only one real striker, Benzema?

My La Liga picks today:

Valencia - Athletic Bilbao - Valencia Win

Getafe - Sevilla - 0 or 2 Double Chance

Huesca - Alaves - Under 2.5 Goals

Real Madrid - Atletico Madrid - Under 2.5 Goals

Odds are also in favor of under 2.5 goals as per Atletico Madrid performance during this season. This is the tough match to predict even I would like to support them because they deserve for a win but I will pass on to place any bet on this match.

Here's something for all the loyal Barcelona fans and especially Messi, time machine or a cross-section of his career through 20 moments that defined Barcelona maestro.
I hope you will enjoy it
When I look at it all, it's amazing what Messi has done for Barcelona in his career and it's really hard to believe that player-club relations have deteriorated so much that Messi wants to leave.
Because of the Barcelona fans I hope that doesn't happen.

If zidane the real madrid coach said athletico madrid will be crowned this season spanish champions, then its an act Managers are famed for which is mind by that he is removing pressure, especially pressure from the press, and shift press attention to athletico madrid. Its early in the season to know if a team will be the champion.

Real Madrid - Atletico Madrid - Under 2.5 Goals

The Madrid derby for the 2020/2021 season is a tale of 2 opposites; Atletico has been solid al season; conceding just about 2 goals in 10 games thereabout (if i counted right); While Real Madrid on the other hand has struggled for form; winning ties due to own goals or penalty kick. Zidane would hope his team can  replicate their midweek performance against Monchengladbach; none the less; i see a 2:2 draw at the bernabue

[kassex]

For me, the difference is that all these truly great coaches gave something new to football - a different philosophy and another dimension.

If you look at Guardiola, Klopp or Mourinho - they all have unique styles. Even coaches like Simeone, to another extent.

Zidane did not do that. He just won a lot of trophies with the most expensive football team in the world. Still too early for me to call him a great manager, although his results cannot be denied.

Zidane has his own thoughts on how the team should play. But alas, he has no players with whom to do this yet. He has not yet been bought players with whom he could create his own style. Except for Azar and Mendy. When Perez will give him those players which he needs, then one can judge whether he is a good coach or not.

Still zidane's team is performing much better than all stars teams like Barcelona. Like most of the teams, Real did faced some rocky performance as they start but they are getting on the track with that win over Sevilla and followed by a consolidating win in the UEFA, they now pose to target the La Liga trophy.

Real Madrid's strength can be judged after the game against Atletico Madrid. Sevilla and Borussia are still not very strong teams even for such Real Madrid. Atletico is a different level. And this game will not be like all others.

[Crptomagma]

It’s always like these and I think it’s beyond prediction because these clubs usually have outstanding passion for the league but these time suspect Valencia to win the league.

[Iranus]

I have a good feeling that the derby of Madrid will end up in a draw or even 0-0 as ATL.Madrid has the great defense from all Top Europe Leagues right now and I can't really see Real taking the win in this weekend. More likely we gonna have a game when both teams are looking for the win and none will find it but we'll see.

A draw is very potential in the Madrid derby. But if the result is a draw, then Real Madrid will be far behind in the standings above it. I hope Real Madrid can take the win in that match. Even though it's difficult, because Atl Madrid are currently performing very well.

I don't think Real Madrid can win. Atletico Madrid is performing brilliantly. Everyone from their forwards to defenders is playing well. Every player doing his responsibility properly. I think Real Madrid will be able to draw the match.

There's just 1 goal difference between a draw and a win. Atletico though is undefeated for a long streak now but the last time they were defeated on the league was from the hands of Real Madrid. Real would miss Eden Hazard but the ground they are playing is more home to Real than to Atletico.

You are right. The previous match between Real vs Atletico was won by Real Madrid. But now the context is a bit different. Atletico Madrid have not lost a single match in a long time. They do not want to lose today. Atletico Madrid lost to Barcelona a few days ago. I hope they lose to Real Madrid today. Let's see what happens tonight.

[ingiltere]

Atletico Madrid has a great winning streak but Real Madrid has no other options, they have to win this game no matter what it costs to save the season. If Atletico get the win tonight they make 9 points difference with Real when their one match is missing.
It's so hard to pick a side here. Let's front to goal bets. Under 2.5 goals odds are looking good. I might play with small amount.

[slaman29]

Can't get anything right these days. Valencia are the biggest spoilers of La Liga I have to say. You want to bet on them to win, impossible. Bet on them to lose, they're not bad enough.

Draws. That's all they're good for these days heh!

[risatrakib]

Sevilla really played but they were lack of proper attack but an own goal from Geatfe player  Xabier  Etxeita in 81 min gave advantage Sevilla and they took three points.

valencia are sponsored by B-Win so what would you expect ? They're the most unpredictable team in LaLiga and no one really bets on them because of the sponsor. I personally tried them once or twice and it was a mess just like you said in your post. Whenever you bet to win , they lose and when you bet on a draw, they win and furthermore when you bet them to score ...they will make 0-0...

[CLS63]

There is a very challenging match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid tonight. Real Madrid have won just 1 match out of their last 4 matches in the league. They are very unstable this season. But they are playing better against big teams in the league. They won their away games against Barcelona and Sevilla this season. Atletico Madrid is having a wonderful season. They haven't lost any match in the league and they conceded only 2 goals which is insane. This match will be very hard for both teams. In my opinion, Atletico Madrid will not lose again in here and get at least 1 point.

[Chrystora123]

Sevilla really played but they were lack of proper attack but an own goal from Geatfe player  Xabier  Etxeita in 81 min gave advantage Sevilla and they took three points.

this match is not very interesting, Sevilla does have control of the ball possession but there is no good completion, an own goal is luck for Sevilla..

The Madrid derby will be an exciting spectacle in the near time, many predict ATM will win in this derby match.  As a Madrid fan, I believe Real Madrid will be able to win because Real Madrid's performance has improved a little in the past few matches..

My La Liga picks today:

Valencia - Athletic Bilbao - Valencia Win ❌
Getafe - Sevilla - 0 or 2 Double Chance ✔
Huesca - Alaves - Under 2.5 Goals ✔
Real Madrid - Atletico Madrid - Under 2.5 Goals ✔

This is how you have performed so far;

Valencia 2 vs 2 Athletic Bilbao

Getafe 0 vs 1 Sevilla

Huesca 1 vs 0 Alaves

Let's wait and see how the Real Madrid vs Atlético Madrid match goes

Edit:
Real Madrid 2 vs 0 Atletico Madrid

[deadthings]

We started with both clubs from Madrid. Think it can go both ways.
If Atletico manages to win this, then we can conclude that Real Madrid has already been eliminated for the title, as the difference would be 15 points in favor of Atletico.

[Rengga Jati]

We started with both clubs from Madrid.

Real Madrid 2-0 Atletico Madrid, Casemiro scored 1 goal + Jan Oblak (OG). The match has lasted 65 minutes and Real Madrid leads the stats very well. I am optimistic Real Madrid to win this match if they can play consistently till the end of the match. They play very well today, I am sure Zidane already know how to play effectively against Atletico Madrid. I like how Zidane put together Casemiro, Kroos, and Modric together as the midfielders. This is absolutely the best way to dominate ball possession. Go Real!!!

65 minutes in the game and Real Madrid is leading with 2 goals to 0... I was expecting more than this from ATM, apparently this will be their first defeat in La Liga this season

[risatrakib]

Atletico Madrid lost their first match in this season in La Liga. Real Madrid played really well and & Modric is really a magician.They have secured their three points and now 3 in points table.
FT RM 2- 0  ATM

[DIA7]

A victory needed by the Real and the League needed it in order to compete .. Zidane, as usual, when he feels threatened, strikes his old guard, which has been repeated in the last matches, Modric, Benzema, Kroos, Carvajal .. So the question remains: Are RM really in a building stage or is it in fact in a stage Finishing off the last rooms of the past and building has not yet started?
But it's funny for Diego Simeone after finally finding a way how to win over Barcelona , winning over RMadrid became too difficult for him as this is now his 10th game vs Madrid without a win.
