La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Unsoldier]

Talking about the championship title at the start of the season is a common thing and becomes a reference for the team's performance in the future. People will talk about fighting for the title at the start of the season and in the middle of the season, because in both seasons there are many teams that have the potential to win the title and this will be very interesting to talk about. I think talking about who will be champion at the end of the season is a bit boring because it's only about 2 clubs.

Usually it comes down to a confrontation between Real and Barcelona, sometimes Atletico joins them, but this does not happen often. Now, unexpectedly, Girona has joined them and after 6 rounds has the same number of points with Barcelona, perhaps this became possible due to the fact that they did not have very strong opponents, we will find out this in the next two rounds, when they need to play with Villarreal and Real.

I don't think this time Atletico Madrid is going to have anything to say in terms of the title race. I think Barcelona and Real Madrid are going to fight it again between themselves. And if I am being honest, I think Real Madrid is going to be the winner of La Liga this season.

Don't get me wrong. Barcelona is definitely a good team. But when it comes to being consistent I don't think they will be able to beat Real Madrid. Of course, right now Barcelona is at the top of the table. But at the same time, Real Madrid has played one match less compared to them. And Real Madrid is only one point behind Barcelona. So there is a huge chance that Real Madrid is going to get ahead of Barcelona after playing the next match. even though the next match is against Atletico Madrid, I don't think Real Madrid will face too many problems.

Atletico started the season in a bad way - now only two wins for the team and seventh place in La Liga. Real Madrid have a very good start to the season - five matches and five wins. However, they have too many players injured. I'm not so sure that Real Madrid will win. Yes, if you look only at the last matches of these teams, Real looks the favorite. However, I think Atletico will not lose today. Ancelotti's team has too big problems with the squad.

I bet that both teams will score.

It's fantastic to see Barcelona's performance. Barcelona were too caught off guard to attack and they were hit by a counterattack ended in a goal. This match was against Celta Vigo. Until the 79th minute, Barcelona lost 2 goals. I think Barcelona will lose. But amazingly in 9 minutes Barcelona were able to make 3 goals. Slightly analyzing this game, Barcelona is a little weak with a quick counterattack. At the beginning of the match they did not play well. But in the second half Barcelona played 2 defenders and increased the flow of the ball faster. In the end they managed to win.

I love how Barcelona came back to win the match after a 1st half defeat to Celta Vigo, it shows how serious they're to retain the league  title this season, they needed to win the match to maintain their stand as on of the strongest league contender in Laliga else there rivals Realmadrid get the upper hand against and top with some gaps if they win their match today,Barcelona have been so impressive in all competitions so far and against Celta Vigo, they showed their class and played with a good team spirit in the 2nd half.
 
 Their goalkeeper Ter Stegen deserves alot of praise for his good performance in the match, to me he's deserves the man of the match, because he contributed to the success of his team I the match by making lots of good saves and made Barcelona to not concede more goals, also Cancelo was another player that caught my attention, he's in a very good form and really contributed to Barcelona's success in the game as well.

[Out of mind]

I don't think there was a decline in performance in the Barcelona team, it's just that they were unlucky in the first half because even though they controlled the match, they had a very difficult time scoring, but this was repaid at the end of the match by scoring 3 goals in less than 10 minutes, thus ensuring a 3rd win. -2 for Barcelona and makes Barcelona now at the top of the La Liga standings.
This is actually Barcelona's good performance, which proves that this team's mentality is quite strong, even though they were 2 goals behind, they managed to recover and turn things around.

Barcelona is often strong when competing at home, apart from that, you also have to see who the opponent is so that the assessment you give for Barcelona can be more accurate. Because if you just look at and give an assessment of the match results obtained by Barcelona, it is also not much different from Girona, which is currently in second place in the standings after being able to win at home against Mallorca with a fairly large score so that the number of points is owned by Girona is also the same as that owned by Barcelona. It's just that Barcelona is slightly ahead in Goals Difference.

Every team is strong at home, and teams that are strong can make better, exciting attacks at home. Barcelona in particular have performed well in each of their matches and achieved good results due to which they are at the top of the La Liga standings. But in this new season Girona is in good form, and they are in second position in the standings, Barcelona and Girona have the same points, but Barcelona have achieved better results which is why they are in the top position. Girona performed well at their home ground and won with a good result, and they came second due to points owned. But Barcelona are ahead in terms of goals scored, which is why they are in the first position.

[abhiseshakana]

Real Madrid has shown very consistent results with winning the la Liga. I don't think any opponent is as strong as Barca for them right now and if they get to meet, I even doubt Barca would win squarely.

Atletico Madrid may show resilience today and even hold Real Madrid to a first half draw. From the way I have seen Madrid play, Bellingham has a goal and maybe an assist in today's game to their winning favor.

The La Liga derby will always be an exciting match and most likely it will run with quite high tension. Atletico Madrid will indeed play at home, but if we look at the performance of the two teams so far, I think Real Madrid is still above Atletico. Real Madrid has not yet found a replacement for Benzema, but they are lucky to have a productive midfielder. My prediction is that this match will be won by Real Madrid with a slight score difference.

The match of Rayo Vallecano vs Villarreal team has already started. In the first half of the game, a tough fight between the two teams has started. Villarreal team scored the 1st goal in 15 minutes. The player of Rayo Vallecano team is K. Pérez 16.  A goal in the minute has drawn the match. Now the match is tied with Rayo Vallecano 1 and Villarreal 1 goal. I am worried about which team will win the match between these two teams today because the players of both teams have started to perform equally. So this match  A draw is more likely.

Celta vigo could not protect itself for another 10 minutes and unfortunately lost the match by seeing 3 goals in the goal.We can say that it was a sad last 10 minutes for Celta vigo and an equally joyful last 10 minutes for Barcelona.The fact that the team still kept its morale in the last 10 minutes when they were 2-0 down shows how big a team they are.It was important for Xavi's team to score 3 goals in 10 minutes in such a match and win the match.Of course, he could have won the match early with a better first 11, but I think he came out with such a squad due to the fatigue of the champions league.

I had predicted that Celta Vigo would really mess up Barcelona's defense with their game scheme. Celta Vigo is a team that often makes Barcelona struggle to win and sure enough, Celta managed to lead by 2 goals in 80 minutes even though it was canceled out by 3 Barcelona goals in 10 minutes.

I agree that Xavi was just trying not to play his entire best squad in that match because of the busy match schedule. He had to rotate his players to stay fit after playing the Champions League a few days ago, but apparently Barcelona found a dead end in Celta's defense. But in the end Barcelona's performance managed to entertain all their fans instead of letting a team that only had 25% possession of the ball with 275 passes win 0-2.

The first derby match of the season between Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid will be held today at the Civitas Metropolitan Stadium. Atletico Madrid, who is playing at home, doesn't seem to be superior to their guests, who have so far wiped out all the points contested in the last 5 matches. Real Madrid came for the ambition of winning the match, but I am sure that Real Madrid's big ambitions today will not be realized easily.

Both teams have strong defenses so I don't think there are many goals to expect in this match. Atletico Madrid, which usually has a hard style of play in derby matches, may have to avoid potential red cards if they don't want to lose, but I think Real Madrid will perform well to take home 3 points from this match.

Villareal was missing a lot of opportunities during the game. The red card received by villareal's player made its tempo slower. Draw is good for both of clubs. Vallecano was also strong enough caused by it was able being equal to the villareal in this game.
That's sad to see villareal's players are doing unnecessary thing. Villareal was dominating the possessions but i meant nothing for vallecano. This is a bad result for villareal caused by the club is in needed to get full points.
Villareal is still out from top 10 caused by the club failed in getting full points from vallecano.
I have nothing to say about this game. vallecano was placing at the top position. At least willareal was not getting batterd by vallecano after it was losing one of its player due to the red card.
Villareal is underperform now.

I predict a score of 2-1 for Real Madrid to win.

The good news for Real Madrid fans is the return of Vinicius Jr, and Bellingham who was previously doubtful is also included in the starting XI. It's true that I agree with you, that Los Blancos will not win easily at their rival's home ground, but referring to Ancelotti statement, derby matches are always special in the sense of being full of surprises. Where Madrid will have the ambition to bring home full points, but of course the possibility of the opposite happening is also quite large.

Diego Simeone squad will be a tough test for Madrid to lift the La Liga trophy at the end of the season. Having the capital of self-confidence with a perfect winning record, makes Madrid worthy of being superior. I think it's difficult for a draw to happen, Vinicius will start the match from the bench, it seems.

The meeting between these two clubs will always be with high tension, yes that's because in addition to playing they also risk prestige if they have to lose in a derby match like this. Real Madrid come with the target of extending their winning record in La Liga this season, while Atletico Madrid want to break the winning streak achieved by Real Madrid this season.
I think Atletico Madrid will provide more escort for a J Bellingham, not without reason, but they do it because J Bellingham is a player who can be a difference for Real Madrid. In their Champions League match alone this player became the hero of Real Madrid's victory.

Atletico also has a lot of problems due to injuries, so if Vinny is back then I would say that Real Madrid have the advantage now. I hope for a landslide victory. In an open game, Real Madrid must score a lot of goals, but Atlético cannot play the bus simply because after 4 games they have only 7 points.

It's very unusual to see Girona so high, level with Barcelona and with almost the same goal difference - Barcelona 16-6, Girona 16-7.

[Die_empty]

They scored important goals and made assist but praises should go to the entire squad. Xavi was reluctant with his decision when making substitution but he got it a little bit fixed when he brought in Raphina to free up Joào Fekkx for the left wing position.
Cancelo also nade a blunder which should have caused the third goal for Celta Vigo but Gavi came through with a slide tackle to shade the ball of the penalty box.

Torres and Lewy missed chances but glad to see Lewy finally scoring two more, he has scored more goals than his appearance this season and that is a good record for him. Should Real Madrid drop three points tonight, they remain on top.

Barcelona was just lucky to come back after being two goals down. Celta parked the bus adopting a 5-3-2 formation which made the game frustrating for Barca. It became worse after they conceived the goal. But the changes in the second half put more pressure on the Celta Vigo but it also opened up the Barca defense for the counterattack of the host. Barca will be grateful that the breakthrough came in the last minutes of the game.

Robert Lewandowski and João Cancelo gave the club the needed goals that made them grab the maximum three points. Xavi has not been able to assemble a steady squad that can win games without struggling too much. Barca needs to do some work in its defense because they are finding it difficult to withstand counterattacks.  I was disappointed with the result,  I feel that Celta deserves to get at least a point for the hard work they put in this game. Barca will just hope Real Madrid loses or gets a draw against Atlético Madrid for them to remain at the top.

And sometimes such luck is completely expected when the non-favorite team is just very focused on defending and counterattacking. If only Celta Vigo played attacking, then I think Barcelona could break down the defense without much problem, but Rafael Benitez wasn't brave enough to do that.

Barcelona's tempo of play improved after they fell behind by two goals through Celta Vigo's counterattack, but I am grateful that in the end Barcelona managed to make a perfect comeback thanks to two goals from Lewandowski and one goal from Cancelo. Celta Vigo also managed to complicate Real Madrid's previous winning plans, but in the end Celta Vigo also lost by Bellingham's 1 goal.

I wouldn't call it luck. Big teams know how to turn a game when they are down. It's not easy to come back from two goals down, but Barcelona bring in the best players in the world to the team to exactly do that. Cancelo and Felix arrived in the last days of the transfer window and they have already contributed directly to the scoring in many games. That's why so much money is being spent on these players. If a normal club made this comeback it would be considered luck, but when Barcelona do it, it's not right to call it luck. They won by playing better. They were the ones who made the game difficult in the first place though, if they had taken advantage of the early goal positions, it would never have come to this. In the end they deserved the 3 points.

[Leviathan.007]

The good news for Barcelona fans is about their coach Xavi.
During the last few days, there has been much news about Xavi and his contract with Barcelona because they wanted to give him a few amount of money and ask him to extend his contract with Barcelona and it seems he rejected the offer in the first days but now his contract ends in 2025 and there is the possibility to extend for one more year until 2026.
After Ronald Koeman got fired he started working in Barcelona and he had a perfect performance there as a young coach.

I am quite sure that this Madrid Derby match will present the feel of a match with a hot atmosphere, the match will present a game with high tension. This duel between city rivals will be a very interesting match for us to watch and enjoy. In this match, Don Carlo is targeting his squad to get full points and continue the positive trend they have had in their last 5 matches. three points, is the result they must get to shift the ranking occupied by Barcelona. as usual, Don Carlo has prepared his squad with his 4-3-1-2 system. Joselu, Rodrygo and Bellingham will be the mainstays on the front lines.

As for the home team, it is very likely that Diego Simeone will implement a 3-5-2 system. relying on a duo of strikers on the front line, namely Morata and Griezmann, or Angel Correa. At the same time, these two teams both have players who are injured. However, because this match will be held at the Metropolitan, Diego Simeone will not let them get points easily.  Moreover, Atletico Madrid also needs full points to improve its ranking. So, it looks like this duel will be a bit of a hot fight.

Now we refer to betting odds, there is nothing superior about these two teams. Atletico with odds @2.85, while Madrid @2.47. I'm pretty sure that in this match, there will be many who support betting on Madrid. However, it seems that this match will not be easy. Maybe the match will end with a draw, or Atletico will be able to beat El Real. Let's just enjoy it, because this fight should be worth enjoying.

This time Barcelona really showed their quality by making an extraordinary comeback even though in critical minutes and being 2 goals behind, Barcelona was able to turn things around by scoring 3 goals and making Barcelona win.
Lewandowski can be criticized many times, but his sharpness does not just disappear. In this match, he appeared at critical moments to become a hero for Barcelona.
In the 81st minute, Lewandowski scored after using Felix's chip pass which at first glance seemed impossible to convert into a goal.
Then in the 85th minute, Lewandowski quickly broke free from the control of the Celta defender to freely receive a cutback from Cancelo.
Cancelo also scored a goal. He was the one who decided Barcelona's victory in this match in the 89th minute.

Celta Vigo have suffered last minute defeats in three matches, against Real Madrid, Mallorca and most recently Barcelona. Luck is not on Rafael Benitez side, it seems, sometimes situations like this are difficult for fans to accept. Barcelona emphasizes itself as a club that has a winning mentality, Lewandowski is slowly finding his sharpness again this season. Felix and Cancelo seemed to have found a new home, their addition to Xavi squad was really influential. I think both are worthy of being made permanent by Barcelona at the end of the season, Xavi should keep the option.

Barcelona unbeaten trend continues, and now sits at the top of the standings with 16 points. On the other hand, it is reported that Frenkie De Jong suffered an injury after the match against Celta Vigo, this is a loss for Xavi squad.

This is going to be an interesting match because two strong teams are meeting tonight. It will be very hard to predict the outcome of this type of match because Atletico Madrid do not always take it easy whenever they meet with clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona; they always play surprising even when they are not in good form when they meet. Currently, Atletico Madrid is not bad, but I will not say they are in great form because their last match against Valencia was very poor,but I can say Madrid is in good shape because their winning streak is still alive, but today I never know how their performances will be. From my observations, Real Madrid has more chances of winning than Atletico Madrid,but not show maybe they will not be lucky because atletico has Strong defense and Real Madrid don't scorers like that in squad currently. 

[swogerino]

It is going to be a very interesting game this derby but I am highly confident that Real Madrid most likely will win this game.The only chance Atletico Madrid have is if they will find Real Madrid tired from the Champions League game and if they will be extra motivated to win this game,both teams have been in similar performances with Atletico being slightly weaker.

I think that it is a nice try to bet on Real Madrid for 2.55 odd as rarely we see such odds for Real Madrid in La Liga,they have this odd either against Atletico or against Barcelona so I tried some money on them.Another good option in such game would be under 2.5 and maybe both teams to score if it ends 1-1.
