La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Prince Malik]

I just checked the odds for the upcoming Barcelona vs. Real Sociedad match and it's 1.60 to 4.90 as of now. Do you think bookies are getting this right? It probably doesn't matter if you're a Real Sociedad fan hehe. That's a juicy one if they win against Barca and I believe they can.

When you compare this ods with the past years ods i think this one is logic because no matter what real sociedad did this year with 9 matches without lose they will play againts barcelona in the camp new

After the 2-1 home win againts barcelona cadiz wasnt even able to score againts selta fiego and they get 4 goals in 45 min...maybe they enter the match with overconfidence and they quickly payed the price but they always in a good position

I totally agree with you that Cadiz is too confident after beating Barcelona, so when they faced Celta Vigo they underestimated Celta Vigo,
which has a player quality below Barcelona. And finally in the first half they conceded 4 goals straight away, I'm sure Cadiz's players were
surprised by the results of the first half. Although the position on the Cadiz table is still better than Celta Vigo, but this is a lesson for Cadiz
to always give the best whoever his opponent is.

To be fair Cadiz were the big underdogs in the game and the Barca game was so much about freakish defending and shitty performance from my team rather than a brilliant one from Cadiz. Last night was a true demonstration of La Liga versus Segunda;) Eventually the table doesn't lie, right?

[Iranus]

Tonight only game Celta Vigo vs. Cadiz.
Celta won last 3 games, tonight they will make that series to 4 games.

Celta Vigo has won the last 2 matches not 3. They are now at number 17 in the points table. On the other hand, Cadiz is at number 6 on the points table. But the Cadiz is beating a popular team like Barcelona in their last game. I hope Cadiz will continue their winning streak, and win today's match.

Cadiz is getting massacred at the hand of Celta Vigo, it's 4 goals to Nil already, and it's just the first 45 minutes.

I thought Cadiz would put up some real fight as well as they've done against the likes of Barcelona, but that's not happening tonight., but I guess that's because of how clinical Celta are in front of goal, each of all their shots on target has been converted.

I thought Celta Vigo would fight, and Cadiz could easily win the match. Hahaha, I was completely wrong. Cadiz has completely collapsed by Celta Vigo. I did not enjoy the match. Maybe Celta Vigo has done 4 on target shoot. And they were able to score 4 goals. If the Cadiz defenders had been able to play a little better, the result of the match might have been different. I'm lucky I didn't bet on the match.

In recent years Real Sociedad has always been floating in the middle of the standings yet this season they had an actual great start. Now, there is a big test versus Barcelona which will need to play their best game to beat la Real. It will be the game to watch. My pick for a result is draw.

Real Madrid once again pleasantly surprised me. I expected a more equal game in the match against Atletico Madrid. But Real Madrid proved their superiority again. I hope the streak of three victorious matches will continue today in the match against Athletic Bilbao.

[hahay]

To be honest, nothing surprised me about Real Madrid yesterday and for the match against Ath Bilbao later, on paper Real Madrid will win again and I personally have also bet on Real Madrid to win @1.57, but it looks like Ath Bilbao will be another surprise, who knows. But, the starting XI or the Madrid squad is in good shape so even though there are some injured players I don't think it's a problem or obstacle and Real Madrid will still be able to play well and win the match against Ath Bilbao.

Real Madrid has proved that they are worthy contenders for the La Liga title. Although Real Madrid did not perform as expected at the start of the season, they are now playing very well. They are playing great in both the Champions League and La Liga. On the other hand, I am not satisfied with La Liga's performance of Barcelona. Although they are playing well in the Champions League.

Let's hope that what is expected will happen.  looking at the history of Madrid vs Bilbao, Madrid always wins.  Just like you, I didn't want any surprises because it would be very disappointing if Madrid lost to Bilbao in today's match..

[ILuckyGuyI]

Real Madrid have started a good win series in the league. They beat Sevilla in their away match. After that, they managed to win against Atletico Madrid too. Now, they are playing against Athletic Bilbao. Bilbao got a red card and Real Madrid have scored a goal after that. I think that Real Madrid will win this match easily and continue on their series. 

[CryptocurencyKing]

First half gone and Athletic club is already loosing by a goal to zero against Real Madrid. It was a very offensive move to have taken a red card at the early stage of the game but surprisingly, despite one man down, Athletic club still managed to keep Real Madrid at Bay and I still saw an attacking Athletic club. I was almost offset with Real Madrid not to have made appropriate use of the man man down advantage until Toni Kroos at the last minute of extra time shot a powerful short towards goal and had his first goal for the season. It's a poor stats for Toni Kroos but his given Real Madrid the advantage tonight to continue there winning trick. Well, the game is far from over, let's watch out for the second half.

Edited: 57 minutes and Atletic Club has dragged the game to a 1-1 draw with Real Madrid. I still hope Real Madrid wins though.

Real Madrid managed to overcome Athletic 3-1. but it was hard to play ten men from 13th minute and even equalizer from Athletic on 52nd minute is a great achievement. Karim Benzema again prooved to be the leader of Madrid scoring at 74th and 90th minutes.

[kawetsriyanto]

Real Madrid managed to overcome Athletic 3-1.

I am quite happy with this result, it indicates that Real Madrid has come back to the right track. I think Zidane has found the solution to improve the player performance and Real's players look like to have good motivation again to compete for the La Liga trophy. It is true that this match isn't an easy match, however they have good stats, they control the match by dominating the ball possession and lead the shot attempts. It is a good sign for the next matches. 

Karim Benzema again prooved to be the leader of Madrid scoring

Yes, Benzema is in a good performance this season. Real Madrid really depends on him. But it becomes bad news if someday he is injured. I think Zidane needs another top CF in the next transfer window.

[Renampun]

nice, 2 goals from Benzema... *Karim Benzema shows his sharpness back
playing with 10 players made Bilbao's game pattern even slacker, Madrid really took advantage of the opportunity very well. now all the points of the big three are the same.

[Prince Malik]

Barcelona today will have no choise and they must make everything to beat sociedad and make their team in the right way in la liga...the ods is 1.6 for barcelona and about 4.9 for sociedad and i believe win 1 is a good bet today

[kassex]

Real Madrid had an excellent streak of 4 games against some rather awkward opponents, scoring 8 and conceding just one goal, but yesterday Athletic Bilbao was helped by Real Madrid.

@kawetsriyanto it was a good match and had Athletic not wasted their chances then the outcome of this game would be very different, but at the end of the day it feels good to see Real Madrid winning and securing those vital three points. Also I’ll agree with your suggestion as Real Madrid does need to secure another striker, because they would need someone capable enough to step in Benzema shoes.

The essential partt is getting the 3 points which allows Real Madrid to tie with Sociedad for the same number of games and with ATM although they still lacks 2 more matches. Those 3 points are crucial to keep RM in top, although Zidane is wondering how his team managed to keep those good results lately

I agree that Real Madrid's game is getting more extraordinary, from 4 matches only conceding one goal proves that Madrid's defense is getting
more solid. But Real Madrid's victory against Athletic Bilbao was a very easy to get, because in the first half of the match, Athletic Bilbao players
received a red card. So with the quality of Madrid players beating a team of only 10 people is easy. So it's no wonder Real Madrid beat Athletic
Bilbao with score 3-1.

Funny thing is the bookie odds still show Barca as the clear favorites. Exactly 1.5 or hovering around there on the bookie I use. Some places almost 1.60.

Hate to say it but this is great value for Real Sociedad to bet on, what do you think guys?
