La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[SmartCharpa]

Better things can always be expected from Real Madrid. And Real Madrid has won the most La Liga Championship. Barcelona is a famous team but Real Madrid plays much better than them. And for this reason, they should have won at least 2-0 in today's match. But it doesn’t matter Because Real Madrid played well, because Real Sociedad is a bit stronger team. Although Real Madrid is playing well, they are not able to overtake Barcelona in terms of points.  Real Madrid need to win one more match to overtake Barcelona

With Barcelona's performance getting stronger, I continue to have my doubts about whether or not Barcelona will repeat what they did last season and win La Liga once more. They have already proven themselves to be unstoppable this early in the season, and I think that trend will continue. Real Madrid had a really difficult start to the game against Real Sociedad, but they managed to come up with three points. Since Vinicius got injured, it's getting harder for them to win games, and even Rodrygo can't score anymore. But I think Joselu replacing Vinicius' position has become an excellent chance for the team because his last-matches goal helped them win.

I was shocked to see Girona in the top three of the league; I thought, "Am I dreaming?" They were too strong to lose to any opponent this season, and they even defeated Sevilla 2-1. Seeing them rise to the top, I was surprise at how much better they were performing than Atletico Madrid, Real Sociedad, and other strong La Liga clubs.

Is it possible that Girona will be a contender in the top 4 this season considering they are unbeaten in the last 5 matches. Girona achieved their latest victory after beating Granada with a score of 2-4 which made them secure 3rd place. In fact, Girona has been quite productive so far, scoring an average of 2 goals in each match and it is not surprising that they continue to get positive results. Even though this team was only promoted last season and in their first season they performed quite well by finishing in 10th position in the standings. It seems that this season Girona should not be underestimated, especially for the top 4 teams who are always competing for the Champions League zone.

Girona is a team we usually see at the bottom of the table.  But their performance this season is surprising everyone. They are unbeaten so far . And after winning 4 out of 5 matches, they are third in the points table. Barcelona and girona are now level on points . The team managed to score 11 goals in 5 matches. Real madrid at the top of the table scored 10 goals in 5 matches . Girona are in great form. Girona's players are surprising everyone with such a performance. The team is very strong and confident this season. I think they will be able to maintain this consistency for some more time. But Girona's performances against Villarreal, Madrid and Barcelona will reveal just how strong the team is.

[Sim_card]

Anyway, Real Madrid are now in first place in the standings and have managed to win all the games that they have. Yesterday Sociedad were able to score the first quick goal and it looked like Madrid might lose, but they won. So it seems to me that even without Benzema Real have a great game.

Real Madrid's greatness does not lie in Benzema, even though last season Benzema was always a mainstay player at Real Madrid and this season the Real Madrid coach is very aware that the Real Madrid team must be able to appear strong even without Benzema. Now this has been proven through the five matches at the start of this season where Real Madrid was able to win all the matches, although not in an easy way because Real Madrid's struggle in winning the five matches at the start of this season was very visible.

After all, of course, it has been proven that Real Madrid are doing just fine even without Benzema because yes, the fact is that Real Madrid managed to play the first five matches of the season without defeat. So yes, it's obviously a very good result but even so, I think Real Madrid will also experience some problems as time goes on. Because I realize, to maintain a winning streak throughout the season is not easy. But yes, if the Real Madrid squad is not much and not often injured, then at least Real Madrid still has a chance to be able to win the La Liga title this season. Although still, competition with Barcelona in the La Liga title race will not be easy.

Better things can always be expected from Real Madrid. And Real Madrid has won the most La Liga Championship. Barcelona is a famous team but Real Madrid plays much better than them. And for this reason, they should have won at least 2-0 in today's match. But it doesn’t matter Because Real Madrid played well, because Real Sociedad is a bit stronger team. Although Real Madrid is playing well, they are not able to overtake Barcelona in terms of points.  Real Madrid need to win one more match to overtake Barcelona

The rivalry between Barcelona and Real Madrid has been known to everyone for years. One of the strongest team rivalries in the world is between them in La Liga. That's why the qualifying race is more important than ever. Looking at the standings, there is only a 2-point difference between them and both teams have very important victories. They must maintain their differences between themselves until El Classico.

Barcelona dropped points in the opening match of the season. On the other hand, Real Madrid team has won 5 matches. It will be very difficult for Barcelona to close this 2 point gap. Because Real Madrid team is consistently playing well in every match and getting full points. Their next match is very important for Real Madrid. They will play against one of the strongest teams in La Liga, Atletico Madrid. If Madrid can win this match, then they will be able to keep the top spot in the table for a long time. The Barcelona vs Madrid match will be in the last week of October. We will have to wait until the El Clasico match to find out which team is the most deserving of this year's title.

Only 2 points gap between two strong teams but the difference is very competitive. However, Real Madrid have to be praised this season. After winning five matches in a row, they are still occupying the top spot in the points table. The confidence that has been created among the team mates due to their consecutive wins will surely influence the next match as well.

In the last match, Real Madrid played against Real Sociedad where Real conceded 1 goal in 5 minutes. Real did not get a goal in the first half, but equalized at the beginning of the second half and Real took the lead in 60 minutes. The upcoming match on October 28 will be one of the most exciting matches of this season where we will see these two big rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona together.

It is clear that Real Madrid is on the lead and they now have more advantage over Barcelona currently to stay on top, because they won all their five matches. Assuming Barca didn't draw their first match, goal aggregates would be used to know who is on the top of the table. Despite that Real Madrid don't have a good striking force but they were able to top the table which shows that they would have dine better than this assuming they have the strikers in their positions.

[rahmad2nd]

About last season Realmadrid  where so focused on defending the Champions League title and didn't pay much attention to the league cup which gave Barcelona the upper hand to claim the trophy since they didn't impress in the Champions League, but this season it's tough to predict the winner because they both look tough and ready for all competitions, Realmadrid so far aren't ready to drop any points this season and Barcelona aren't giving up on the chase either, therefore one person needs to step aside for another to come top.

 They both strength their squad this season and even though Barcelona are not very strong financially they managed to get good players on loan who's been very impressive, we all saw how João Félix made it very easy for them to win their last match, however on Realmadrid's side, they got the most outstanding player in the league so far in person of Jude Bellingham and he's going to be a very good weapon for them in the Champions League this season.

Good results cannot always be maintained throughout the entire season. It is already clear now that Real Madrid and Barça will fight for the championship, but many factors can influence them, starting with injured players (Vinicius and Courtois are already missing), and ending with how long the teams will play in the Champions League, because this can require a lot of effort , especially at the final stage of the tournament.

As I said in many previous posts, ups and downs in a team's performance are a normal thing. in one season, we will see which team is the most consistent throughout the season. However, along the way, there may be several obstacles that occur to a team, be it Real Madrid or Barcelona. The injury factor is one part that is often a frightening threat for most teams, and ultimately affects the team's performance as a whole.

La Liga has only been running for five weeks, and the competition will get tougher in the following weeks. Moreover, now both Real Madrid and Barcelona will play several matches in various competitions. and the competition that attracts the most attention is the Champions League competition. Injuries due to busy schedules may happen to both Barcelona and Real Madrid. However, currently, both teams have players who are absent due to injury. Barcelona has injured players, namely Pedri and Araujo, while Real Madrid has injured players, namely Vini Jr, Militao, Guler, Mendy and T.Courtois. If several other players are injured in the following matches, it will be a problem for these two teams.

Today, Barcelona will play their match in the Champions League. Meanwhile, Madrid will play their match tomorrow. After that, the two teams will return to their match in the domestic league. and what is certain, the team's fitness will be very drained. The impact could be a decrease in performance. but let's just follow and enjoy every time these two teams play match after match, as well as their competition in the La Liga competition.

There's no guarantee if girona's performance will always be sustainable till the end of season. We have not yet entered into the middle of season. It's quite surprising to me after i was seeing girona was able showing impressive performance.
Anyone is starting to have their hopes of seeing girona to perform consistently till the middle of season but i will not put a lot of hope for this club.  Everything is still remain unclear caused by we are still at the early of season.
Girona is performing well now, but other clubs rarely maintain their early success throughout the season.

Girona started the season by holding Real Sociedad to a draw. And these results turned out to be a good start for Girona. Because if they can hold Real Sociedad to a draw, who managed to finish in 4th place last season. So of course Girona will also be able to face other teams that are weaker than Real Sociedad. And it has been proven that until now Girona continues to win and has managed to collect full points in the last 4 matches. And next week Girona will face Mallorca. And if Girona gets full points again in next week's match then I will start to think that Girona cannot be underestimated this season.

[Weawant]

They will lose if they meet big clubs, Girona should be happy because they were often relegated to league two, their highest position in La Liga is only top 10th position. Actually there's no star players in Girona, all of them are still mediocre. If the players can be consistent enough, I believe those players will move to big teams or other league and Girona is still Girona lol.

Absolutely if Girona meets with big team such as Real Madrid or Barcelona they are definitely going to suffer a loss because they obviously don't have the style of play or the technicalities needed to go against big teams as such and secure a victory, the may only try to defend and cut down on the goals they will concede from the game but then victory will be some distance away from them.

Considering that the team has no star play enough to be considered a saviour when the need arises, they have also been known to manage to escape relegation most times, finishing top ten most often is an indication that they lack what it take to taken on a big team and win or even secure top positions on the league table. I think one of their big achievement is usually escaping relegation.

Moving on, we could take a look at the bright side, the team can be revived if only the management of the team look into making some critical changes and adjustments to make the team a good contender amongst it's pears, one of such measures I think could be buying of good player to replace the old one so as to achieve desired results and if necessary a change of the coach aswell, more like a total overhaul wouldn't be a bad idea because it's only with time if they continue in this manner they maybe relegated for a long time and I doubt if it's what the management will want for the team.

Anyone can start or have a successful run; the question is whether the team has enough resources for the whole season. Usually, such “upstarts” begin to show sharply worse results towards the middle of the championship or towards the end.


As I said, the results of the last round did not in any way affect the teams’ quotes for the title; Real is still the favorite with odds of 1.80. In my opinion, the odds are quite favorable, although I don’t like long-term bets.

Barcelona and Real Madrid enjoy a world-class rivalry. Real Madrid has won 5 games this season, which is good. Barcelona, however, made a mistake in their opener. The next match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid might be hot. After Atletico's startling 3-0 loss to Valencia, Im worried about Madrid's chances. Barcelona would benefit from Real Madrid losing these points before El Clasico. Im scared about that match-up, and I think it will indicate who merits the title challenge.

Even though this team was only promoted last season and in their first season they performed quite well by finishing in 10th position in the standings. It seems that this season Girona should not be underestimated, especially for the top 4 teams who are always competing for the Champions League zone.

I think it's too early to say that, it is true that Gironaa's performance was quite impressive at the start of this season, they achieved 4 wins and one draw from the 5 La Liga matches they have played, but I have a little doubt about the consistency of this team, especially if you look at the quality of the players they play. They are not that good compared to other top teams in La Liga.
Indeed, the Girona team should be taken into account and should not be underestimated this season, but to be able to finish in the top 4 and get a ticket to the UCL I think is very difficult and the percentage is quite small for them.

Indeed, I also know that it is too early to say that, but if you look at the 4 Spanish representative teams in the Champions League competition every season, they are always not the same. It could be said that the 3 slots are always secured by Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico, but the last slot is always a struggle for other La Liga teams. What is surprising is that last season belonged to Real Sociedad and that is why I said it could be that Girona will become a new challenger for the top 4 this season.

We know that Sevilla has been in such a mess that even now they are still at the bottom of the table. We also can't expect much from Valencia because they have the same fate as Sevilla. So yes, I think as long as Girona continues to maintain its current form until the end of the season, it is not impossible that we will see new arrivals.

[execijutiere]

In the closing match of the week, we watched the Granada-Girona match.Girona, who started the season well, won this away match and moved to 3rd place in the league.We can say that they played well as a team.Although the match seemed to be in the middle, Girona managed to win the match in the first half with 3 goals in the first half. Granada didn't have much to do after the first half.Girona will give difficulties to the championship candidates this year.After the draw with sociedad in the first week, they managed to win for 4 weeks in a row.Let's say that they don't have problems in finding goals.They've scored in five of their five matches.

The next match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid might be hot. After Atletico's startling 3-0 loss to Valencia, Im worried about Madrid's chances. Barcelona would benefit from Real Madrid losing these points before El Clasico. Im scared about that match-up, and I think it will indicate who merits the title challenge.

There is no need to be afraid of that match because Real Madrid is not a loser team so they know what they have to do at home to Atletico Madrid. Because if Atletico Madrid can be beaten with a score without reply by Valencia, maybe Real Madrid can also do this in the next match. Even though Atletico Madrid will also try hard not to lose in front of its own fans, this time the opponent is also quite tough for Atletico Madrid.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I think, Real sociedad gave Real Madrid the opportunity in the second half to equalized the goal and still add another goal to embraced the victory because Real sociedad was leading the match hope that they will maintain the one goal till the end of the match but the match was turned for the favour of Real Madrid 2-1.

Lol it would be funny if something like that happened because it would be very naive for Sociedad to give Madrid a chance to equalise when they need points to improve their performance.
Madrid's second goal was a pure attacking goal and Sociedad were not able to focus at the start of the second half and Valverde's shot was also very good and it was a beautiful goal in my opinion.
So there's no reason to give them a chance because it would be ridiculous if Sociedad gave Madrid a chance who are clearly much better than them.

The first half Sociedad did play very well even for the first few minutes they really played very well but for the second half Madrid certainly showed that they were a better club.

That's just an excuse for those who don't like Madrid's victory.  


Real Madrid match against Real Sociedad ended quite satisfactorily, at least until the second goal because after that the rhythm of the game started to decline. The intensity of the attacks is no longer aggressive. Valverde goal opened the way for Ancelotti to launch an attack and succeeded in turning the situation around where Fran Garcia had an important role in creating space in the opponent's defense. With Joselu second goal, this victory is worth celebrating. I saw that Real Sociedad also played solidly, stealing the first goal at the start of the first half, making the game scheme heat up. Kepa performance dropped a bit but overall he was still good and Bellingham regained the award for best player. Unfortunately, he didn't score a goal in this match.

Well, I thought that match was very relaxed, Madrid excelled, it seems to me that they don't have to show much, you just have to show power when you really want to show power, for me there is no other option, that is the level of Madrid, The strong level must be demonstrated against Barcelona, against UCL teams, obviously against teams that demand it, so in this order of ideas we can make exceptions thinking, I know that many who do not like Madrid can say any type of things and yes, they are within your rights, but there is something to recognize when a team plays well, plays poorly, or simply does not demonstrate all its power, because it is not necessary, so why score goals and risk the good players trying hard, that is something that we all know, we cannot demand more than we should, in a final, yes, it is obvious that the effort is worth it, or in a match that Madrid is losing, it is fair that they put in enough effort, but otherwise If they are winning and with a great goal, then it is not Necessary.

Carlo Ancelotti praises new Real Madrid signing after win over Real Sociedad

The ex-Stoke City and Newcastle United striker joined Madrid during the summer following an impressive four year spell in La Liga after leaving the Premier League - a period in which the Spaniard bagged double digits in four consecutive seasons.

Joselu has continued that goalscoring form since signing for Real Madrid, bagging his second La Liga goal of the season, and his most important for his new club to date, in the win over Real Sociedad at the newly-refurbished Santiago Bernabeu.

The 33-year-old popped up to head home a winning goal on the hour mark on Sunday evening, completing Madrid's comeback after they had gone behind within four minutes thanks to an Ander Barrenetxea goal.

Speaking to the press after the win, Ancelotti was keen to praise Joselu for providing "characteristics" that Madrid previously didn't have in their lineup.

Source: https://www.90min.com/posts/carlo-ancelotti-praises-new-real-madrid-signing-win-real-sociedad

In this order of ideas, we can say that Madrid is at a neutral level, Ancelotti is one of the greatest football coaches, one of those who knows the most, he has great experience and can make every type of game visible. well, and also, as good fans, we know the career of an Ancelotti and as he has known, he takes this team to privileged places in all competitions, although sometimes they have not been champions, he has done a wonderful job, and in Compared to other coaches of world elite teams, we are the one that has had the most performance, so these types of things are what we can trust that the team is at a normal level, if something outstanding, but that obviously the best of this team It will be demonstrated when he plays with a larger team, because for now he is being very consistent with having a clear objective, La Liga and the UCL, not bad, but Ancelotti is aiming for these Objectives that will Surely do very Well.

Even though Atletico Madrid will also try hard not to lose in front of its own fans, this time the opponent is also quite tough for Atletico Madrid.

With such results, it is basically Atletico who are under heavy pressure at this moment. Because yes, about Atletico crushing defeat in the previous match and then, Atletico had to play against Real Madrid in the next match. So yes, at least it will not be easy for Atletico to go through this pressure easily. Also, although Atletico will play at home but still, anyway at this moment Real Madrid is in a good trend with consecutive wins. As for Atletico, that Atletico still does not have a stable performance and thus, then I believe Real Madrid will still have a chance to be able to win in the away match against Atletico in the next match.

[asriloni]

Is it possible that Girona will be a contender in the top 4 this season considering they are unbeaten in the last 5 matches. Girona achieved their latest victory after beating Granada with a score of 2-4 which made them secure 3rd place. In fact, Girona has been quite productive so far, scoring an average of 2 goals in each match and it is not surprising that they continue to get positive results. Even though this team was only promoted last season and in their first season they performed quite well by finishing in 10th position in the standings. It seems that this season Girona should not be underestimated, especially for the top 4 teams who are always competing for the Champions League zone.

It's not possible for girona to be a contender in the top 4 this season. My reason is girona has not yet faced the hard fixtures like facing barcelona, real madrid or atletico madrid. Girona may be dropping from the current position if the club will be facing those teams.
Girona's performance was remarkable but i must say that if girona is not yet consistence. It was only getting great results from the first five matches in la liga. There are still 33 more matches to come.
I don't even expect girona to finish at the top 5. Girona has a good chance of finishing in the top 10, but we cannot be sure until we see how they perform consistently until the middle of the season when the second leg takes place.
Everything can change anytime. Any tema who was placing below girona can also surpass it anytime. That depends on the consistentcy from the club.
We must be patience to determine that.

[Webetcoins]

The opportunity is still wide open for the Girona team to finish in the top 4 of the final La Liga standings as long as they can maintain their current performance and be consistent until the end of the season, however, with the players in their current squad not having stars, this makes this a little difficult. .
And what you have to remember in football, anything can happen and there are always surprises that no one expects.
I hope that the surprise is that Girona this season can compete closely at the top of La Liga.

as long Girona can always secure 3 additional points without being defeated and at least end in a draw in every match, I believe this team has the opportunity to be in the top 5 of the standings with very consistent improvement. because if Girona not appear stable and consistent there will be stronger teams that will follow their points such as Atletico Madrid and Real sociedad, even Sevilla will also be strong competitors if this team recovers from it slump in performance.
at least if Girona wants to try break the record in history his team should provide distance of 3 or 5 more win to give a long distance to other big teams as I mentioned before.

Currently, their start is impressive, and they are having fair chance for staying at this spot for long time but still this is not guaranteed for staying at this spot and level because we are still having 33 rounds left in this season and things can change into this period specially injuries or any other change of strategy can bring problem, but Girona is surely currently capable of staying into top five teams with this quality and performance.

Few teams which are mostly stayed into middle and top ranks currently suffering badly which is also surprising but good opportunity for them to keep things in better way and create good difference because if they take more time then surely Girona can do much better and their chances could be also high but if these teams will be improved then surely things could be different in coming weeks.

[fullhdpixel]

Only 2 points gap between two strong teams but the difference is very competitive. However, Real Madrid have to be praised this season. After winning five matches in a row, they are still occupying the top spot in the points table. The confidence that has been created among the team mates due to their consecutive wins will surely influence the next match as well.

In the last match, Real Madrid played against Real Sociedad where Real conceded 1 goal in 5 minutes. Real did not get a goal in the first half, but equalized at the beginning of the second half and Real took the lead in 60 minutes. The upcoming match on October 28 will be one of the most exciting matches of this season where we will see these two big rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona together.

It is clear that Real Madrid is on the lead and they now have more advantage over Barcelona currently to stay on top, because they won all their five matches. Assuming Barca didn't draw their first match, goal aggregates would be used to know who is on the top of the table. Despite that Real Madrid don't have a good striking force but they were able to top the table which shows that they would have dine better than this assuming they have the strikers in their positions.

Despite many rumors and not having quality striker things were not favorable for the Real Madrid before start of this season but against all odds their start is impressive and right now they are doing much better which can give them good healthy lead and surely pressure could be on defending champions Barcelona even we have difference of just two points which is not much but performance of Real Madrid and their newly recruited players are at the best.

Next week we have first big derby of this season when Atlético Madrid going to host Real Madrid and surely this could be big test for the visitors because from here we will have better view how things will be in coming weeks specially after shocking defeat against Valencia now it's time for the Atlético Madrid to fight back and take confidence back into their ranks hopefully things could be interesting and tough for the both teams.

Barcelona and Real Madrid enjoy a world-class rivalry. Real Madrid has won 5 games this season, which is good. Barcelona, however, made a mistake in their opener. The next match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid might be hot. After Atletico's startling 3-0 loss to Valencia, Im worried about Madrid's chances. Barcelona would benefit from Real Madrid losing these points before El Clasico. Im scared about that match-up, and I think it will indicate who merits the title challenge.

I'm not sure if you watched the Getafe vs Barcelona match which you now consider to be a mistake. It was a fierce match for both teams, especially because the match was so heated and tense that in the end it required the referee to issue a total of 8 yellow cards and 2 red cards.

Getafe actually committed a lot of fouls, some of which were to intimidate the Barcelona players with some physical touches. It wasn't a mistake in my opinion, but actually Barcelona were very unlucky in their attempts to score goals. Getafe tended to defend and counterattack, while Barcelona, ​​who dominated the match, only had to be satisfied with 1 point.

~snip~

I was shocked to see Girona in the top three of the league; I thought, "Am I dreaming?" They were too strong to lose to any opponent this season, and they even defeated Sevilla 2-1. Seeing them rise to the top, I was surprise at how much better they were performing than Atletico Madrid, Real Sociedad, and other strong La Liga clubs.

From last season Girona had quite good performances and ended up in the top 10. This season they started with a perfect record not losing and equaled Barcelona's points. The key to their success is not just the coach, they are owned by the team belonging to the City Football Group which is the owner of the Premier League giants, Manchester City. They successfully develop gradually. But you also have to remember Girona have not met strong teams Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Their first 5 matches faced not very strong opponents. So the real test they will face in the next game. Sevilla are also not a strong team at the moment, last season they also ended under Girona.

[hahay]

In the closing match of the week, we watched the Granada-Girona match.Girona, who started the season well, won this away match and moved to 3rd place in the league.We can say that they played well as a team.Although the match seemed to be in the middle, Girona managed to win the match in the first half with 3 goals in the first half. Granada didn't have much to do after the first half.Girona will give difficulties to the championship candidates this year.After the draw with sociedad in the first week, they managed to win for 4 weeks in a row.Let's say that they don't have problems in finding goals.They've scored in five of their five matches.

Yeah indeed, I also don't think Girona will be able to start the season so well at all. Because at this moment, Girona is the team below Real Madrid and Barcelona without losing in the five matches they have played so far. But even so, I personally don't think Girona will make it difficult for potential champions team this season. Because after all, there is no strong guarantee for Girona to be consistent with good results throughout this season. But indeed, if I consider the opposing teams that Girona has faced so far, such as Real Sociedad and Sevilla. So at least, this result maybe a guarantee that Girona will be able to compete well at least in the top six in the table. So, if in the previous season there were Betis, Bilbao and Osasuna then yes, maybe this season there will be Girona who will be a team to competing in the top six.
