La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[$anounimus$]

I totally understand why people are worried about how Ancelotti is going to play against Girona. I also hope that he doesn't forget how important games like the one against Atletico are. I see Girona's strong and consistent play, and I believe that Madrid would be hurt by ignoring them. I agree with you that Jude shouldn't be forced to play striker. Even though the two-striker plan isn't ideal, I think Rodrygo and Joselu would be a better fit in this case. I believe it would be smart to move Jude back to second scorer. Even though Modric is very good, I strongly think that he would be better off as an attacking midfielder instead of a second striker. Your ideas do indeed point out the most important choices Madrid needs to make in the next game

The defeat to Atletico Madrid could be a valuable lesson for Ancelotti. I think Don Carlo already understands what he has to do when facing Girona. Girona is still capable of appearing quite strong, but their progress will soon be stopped by Real Madrid.

Regarding tactics, Carlo Ancelotti probably won't change his tactics much, perhaps he will still give Joselu and Rodrygo a place in front and Bellingham behind them. But it is possible that Ancelotti will make other experiments to make his tactics difficult for the Girona coach to learn. It will be interesting to look forward to this match.

I think that Barca vs Sevilla will not be a very interesting game... Barca plays very good home games and Sevilla, as you have already said, now plays very badly... I think the odds for Barca to win 1,4 are very good... With that you can try to make a multi bet...

With Sevilla's condition still not having a good performance, it is quite natural that this match is a little difficult but when looking at some of Sevilla's playing records in the past season, especially when getting a much better opponent, they actually always try to play better and this could be surprising.
Even with their current performance, Sevilla will definitely have difficulties but I think they will be quite capable of reducing the dominance of Barcelona.
Barcelona are definitely the favorites in this match especially they play at Camp Nou with full support of fans but there could be something good that Sevilla will show today.

Barcelona is still the favorite in every aspect, they can control the game better and I think this match will be less enjoyable if you see that some of the matches that Sevilla played didn't go well. The depth of the Sevilla and Barcelona squads now has a significant difference in that to block front line attacks, Xavi maximizes Lewandowski, and then utilizes Joao Felix and Joao Cancelo, who are increasingly being trusted to be the starting eleven.

As I said before, Barcelona is a favorite is a certainty because they must be a favorite with the condition of the performance that is currently very good and by looking at the current condition of Sevilla then surely they are the favorite that cannot be denied.
But of course, looking at their performance last week we must also be aware that favorites do not always win because it could be with a tiki taka scheme that the opponent ignores and focuses more on defense while waiting and making a quick counterattack then it could be a very good thing in the end for Sevilla.
It's just that they also have to focus because some new players like Cancelo and Felix are indeed very reliable for Barcelona this time which will definitely be a whip for Barcelona in making the match another 3 points for them.

Atletico Madrid had really took advantage of this match and won the match by two goals. They were  both one player down because of a tussle that happened between Morata and Chimy Avila, they were both given red card which in my opinion I think it is right. They wanted to distrupt the good game flow in the match.

Now, this is another great win for Atletico Madrid and I think they deserved it. Despite playing in Osasuna’s home and much match domination by then, Atletico Madrid have been able to win the match by two goals margin which shows how eager they are for the title hunt amongst other top teams in the league. Hopefully, they can continue this their form to remain dominant in this season.

Atletico Madrid thankfully managed to win by 2-0. The youngster Rodrigo Riquelme's goal secured the win. It wasn't nice to see that incident of course as it ended up with Morata's being given a red card as well. Because Morata is one of the very important players for Atletico Madrid this season. He has been very productive so far.

Atletico Madrid have 13 points now maybe but they have a missing game as well. The Sevilla game was postponed you know and it is going to be played on December 23. I would expect Atletico Madrid to beat Sevilla in that game as well especially as long as Sevilla maintain their inconsistent look.

As a coach, Ancelotti understands better than Girona coach Michel, of course Ancelotti will not underestimate Girona achievements in the last seven weeks. As a club that is unbeaten in La Liga, Girona needs to be anticipated with the best squad that Madrid currently has. Vinicus return from injury could be a blessing for Los Blancos up front, and it looks like Ancelotti will use a 4-3-1-2 formation by pairing Rodrygo with Vinicius as the spearhead. Bellingham will support as second striker, a role to which he has adapted quickly.

I am still quite confident that Madrid can recover after suffering their first defeat to Atletico, even though Girona will play at home, but that is not something the Los Blancos squad needs to be afraid of. Girona needs great luck to beat Madrid and continue the positive trend, I think that will be very difficult to achieve this time.

I think Ancelotti won't see the end of the season. There were two men who made Real real for the last two seasons, one was Benzema and one was Vinicius. Now they don't have either of them, it's normal for them to struggle. But you will definitely have a very good goalkeeper, if bayern can go and spend 120 million euros for harry kane, I'm sorry, so will you. The goalkeeper didn't have a single flying save, they threw everything on the goalkeeper without exception. If Benzema came to this match with a cane after 20 years, the score would have been 5-0. The real problem is Rodrygo, he plays for himself. He contributes nothing to the team. He doesn't feed the striker. He can't even counter-attack like he used to. Valverde and Camavinga are the only two players who can counter-attack. Even Vini kills the counterattack with the wrong pass or by trying it himself. Real forgot the team game.

[youdacapt]

Anyways, the three coaches nominated for the La Liga's monthly award for best Coach of the Month are:

Name of Coach	Club
Ernesto Valverde	Atletico Madrid
Messi Xavi	FC Barcelona
Michel Sanchez	Girona

What coach do you think will win this award?

I think Girona head coach Michel Sanchez deserves the award; and i am even shocked that Carlo Ancelotti was not shortlisted haha. Michel Sanchez has led Girona to 6 straights win out of 7, with a single draw to be at the top of the La Liga standings; they won all their league games as well so far in the month of September.

Michel Sanchez should be handed the manager of the month without bias. This weekend Girona hosts Real Madrid at home; do you think they can keep their winning run against the Galácticos ?

But it is possible that Ancelotti will make other experiments to make his tactics difficult for the Girona coach to learn. It will be interesting to look forward to this match.

If we look at the statistics up to now Girona are unbeaten in the last five matches and they seem to be meeting an opponent who is really right for them, I think Madrid will probably break their winning streak if Madrid manage to beat them at home, Ancelotti certainly doesn't want to share points with Girona and for sure he will ensure Madrid get three points from tomorrow's match using another strategy to provide a surprise.

On the one hand, Girona plays as host, maybe they will play with the ability they have to get points and add another series of wins even though they will find it difficult to face Madrid, if it is predicted that the betting market favors Madrid and I predict Madrid will win narrowly 1 - 2 against Girona tomorrow.

I think he'll remain in Realmadrid for the rest of the season, i don't know about next summer, but Ancelotti is going to finish the rest of the season at Realmadrid, moreover Realmadrid are not really struggling they're actually doing fine and are currently in the 2nd position of the Laliga table, they were just so unfortunate to suffer a loss in their derby game against Atletico Madrid but then they're still ahead of their rivals Barcelona in the table.

 Realmadrid so far have survived without Benzema and Vinicius Jnr who's currently out of the team due to a long injury spell, thanks to the goals from Jude that's helped them get this far, as for Rodrygo, he was very impressive for the team last season, though he's not really performed as better as last season but he's scored a goal and also assisted another, what Realmadrid needs right now is a very good finisher as good as Benzema, Rumors have it that they've also listed, the Napoli sensation, Victor Osimhen as one of their target next summer.

The result of the Real Betis - Granada match ended 1-1. A young player named Assane Diao, only eighteen years old, actively tried to create positions and score goals throughout the match, and after these efforts, he scored a delicious goal from far away. I think he wasn't noticed enough. If Assane Diao had played in the Premier League, this kid would probably already be the center of attention on all sports pages.

Glad i was not taking this match. It's hard for me to predict the result from this match and finally draw is the result from this match.
Granada was always threatening betis through so many counter attacks but it saddened me to see no more goals being made by granada. Betis owned the possession but that clubs faces difficulty in building up a proper attack to score more goals.
Betis ended the game with less goal attemps compared with granada. How disappointed the result of this match. Assane played well, but his performance was not so impressive.

Granada is a good opponent. Real Betis could not maintain their superiority. Granada could not score the equalizing goal. It was not a good night for both sides.

It's not only good but granada was also having effective counter attack compared with betis which was always being threatened by granada's counter attack. Betis needs to evaluate its attackers again.
The club was just repeating the same result as previous matches. It has good ball possession but ineffective attacks.

Ancelotti will not suffer against Girona because Madrid are stronger than them, Girona will definitely lose against Real Madrid tomorrow and the club will continue to be at the top, since Vini jr has come back from injury you will start seeing his performance against Girona tomorrow because is the only one that can help Bellingham to score many goals he will be contributing for him and Rodrigo, because is very skilled player am very sure Madrid as come back to the top, Joselu is not doing well for Real Madrid this seasons the club should simply look for another striker because Joselu is playing poorly He missed several chances against Palmas last match Let's see whether Mbappe can join Real Madrid next season so that the team may be more stronger.

Vinicius' return to the team, it's very positive news, although it may take him some time to fully return to the game. It is worth noting that Joselu, during the absence of Vinicius, also proved that he deserves a place in the team, since his goals often helped Real achieve the necessary victories.

In recent matches, Bellingham has not been as good as he was at the beginning of the season, but in any case, Real Madrid's attack now looks very powerful. As for Girona, they are also in great shape and this match will be at their stadium, which could give them some kind of advantage. My opinion is that even a draw would be a good result for Girona in this match.

Real Madrid is indeed the favorite in this match, but I don't think it will be easy for them to beat Girona. The match will be held at Girona's home, so the crowd will be Girona's advantage. Apart from that, Girona are in their best form and occupy the top position in the table, so I think they will most likely have very high motivation and they will strive vigorously to steal points from Real Madrid. This will be a tough match for Real Madrid, but they still have a chance to win as long as they can show their best performance.

[wmaurik]

The defeat to Atletico Madrid could be a valuable lesson for Ancelotti. I think Don Carlo already understands what he has to do when facing Girona. Girona is still capable of appearing quite strong, but their progress will soon be stopped by Real Madrid.

It was quite surprising to see Girona who is currently at the top of the standings after playing seven matches at the start of this season with six wins and one draw. I also think that Real Madrid will soon take the top position from Girona in tomorrow's match even though Girona will play quite well in front of their own fans, but this time's opponent really makes Girona think as best as possible so that they can continue to stay at the top of the standings.

Regarding tactics, Carlo Ancelotti probably won't change his tactics much, perhaps he will still give Joselu and Rodrygo a place in front and Bellingham behind them. But it is possible that Ancelotti will make other experiments to make his tactics difficult for the Girona coach to learn. It will be interesting to look forward to this match.

A change in tactics could occur for Real Madrid in order to be able to trick their rivals or opponents in tomorrow's match, because this time Real Madrid must be able to play as well as possible in order to displace Girona from the top of the standings. So a change in tactics could happen, and Carlo Ancelotti will also look at the placement of players when there is a change in tactics because Real Madrid doesn't have more players on the front lines such as strikers.

@Altryist Jude has been performing exceptionally well till now and even if he underperforms in one or two matches it’s fine because he’s singled handedly won many matches for them. Furthermore if Vinicius is back then that’ll definitely boost Real Madrid and reduce pressure on Jude because in his absence lots of pressure was on Jude to score and thus his return is definitely a good sign for Real Madrid.

Reportedly the police conducted a raid on the referee's office. They are investigating the office of the referees committee as one of the steps of the investigation into alleged corruption of Barcelona's acting officials' payments. The Spanish Civil Guard searched the headquarters of Spain's Referees' Technical Committee (CTA) on Thursday. UEFA is also investigating the case. Barcelona allegedly paid 8.4 million euros to Negreira and the Dasnil 95 company.

Unfortunately, in this case we can only rely on the police. I am sure that all other parties from the football side will, as always, be interested in hiding everything. Of course, Barcelona, of course, UEFA, but even Real Madrid will be interested in this scandal subsiding - I am sure that they are more interested in having a serious opponent and the interestingness of La Liga than in ensuring that the cheaters are punished.
The way this case is slowly developing does not inspire optimism and is a clear hint of how it will all end - most likely nothing, like the investigation into fraud on the part of PSG and City.

[Unsoldier]

With Sevilla's condition still not having a good performance, it is quite natural that this match is a little difficult but when looking at some of Sevilla's playing records in the past season, especially when getting a much better opponent, they actually always try to play better and this could be surprising.
Even with their current performance, Sevilla will definitely have difficulties but I think they will be quite capable of reducing the dominance of Barcelona.

On the other hand, I agree with you, Sevilla can still come back at any time and it is possible that in this match they can do something different even though the probability of winning is very slim. I try to be optimistic that Sevilla also has players who don't give up easily.

Sevilla's chance to draw is already very good for them but they can also go further especially when seeing Barcelona lose last week it indicates that Barcelona still has a gap that can be penetrated even though it is very difficult.
Sevilla's performance is unpredictable sometimes they are very bad but sometimes they are also very good so in this case if Sevilla really want points and want to improve their current position then they must try to at least secure 1 point in this match.
...

I think we shouldn't expect any surprises today - the Catalans will try to go forward to the opponent's goal from the first seconds. The team has a very powerful offensive line, which will allow Barcelona to realize their chances. "Sevilla" now is not a team that can cause problems to the leaders of La Liga. So I think the Catalans will get three points.

[Sexylizzy2813]

In the last two games Barcelona have been struggling to get to that winning ways like a comfortable winning ways.
Barcelona will be hosting Seville a stubborn side is going to be very difficult for the home team and I can't say who's going to win but as it is a draw is certain on this fixture.
Xavi needs to get his team together if they want to win this game because in their last game they played out 2-2 which would have taken them to the top if they had won and always coming from behind won't help them in this fixture if they let Seville to scored first, so I just want to see a great game tonight.

[bering]

I just look at to the meeting statistics between Barcelona vs Sevilla that from 5 latest mettings Barcelona has able to gets 4 wins and besides that Sevilla records from Barcelona was quite poor because they were failed to scored and conceded 7 goals from Barcelona from 3 latest matches so this proven Barcelona is clearly better if we compared to Sevilla and about team conditions Sevilla will lost their main striker Youssef En Nesyri because of injured and i think this is big lost for Sevilla because since last season Youssef En Nesyri is became an their key player for striker position

For today Rafa Mir indeed can be played to replaced Youssef En Nesyri position but so far the performance of Rafa Mir is still dissapoint and i know recently Sevilla performance was quite better because they never lose anymore in the last 4 matches in all competitions but Barcelona is too strong for them so obviously they will lose today and Barcelona has odds @1.40 although not high but this is safe bet

[Franctoshi]

The Chances of Barcelona winning in today's game are on the side of a high degree of certainty if we judge based on past and present records with Sevilla when it comes to the number of clashes between both teams, Sevilla has a poor winning record since 2003, Too in the past 13 seasons, Barca also has a good winning record against their visitors at camp Nou and even judging from their last six games Barca won 5 out of 6 and drew 1, while  Sevilla got zero wins. And too coming to both teams' present performance in La Liga,  Barcelona is on an unbeaten record since the commencement of the season.

 I have zero doubt about Barca winning their game tonight.

[rdbase]

Barcelona could face as much as "being banned from football" which we all know they will not give that decision because that would ruin all of Spanish football. It would turn La Liga into just Real Madrid who wins it almost every single year, and maybe another Madrid team Athletico Madrid getting once in a while every decade or so, which would be sort of like Ligue 1 and PSG or Bundesliga and Bayern, and we saw what happened to their quality because of that. But this bribery deal seems like a big deal and should be punished severely if its true, they would have to provide %100 undisputable proof in order to make this claim, otherwise they can't punish them at all.

We all know how the big clubs work by now and even if a scandal such as this one arises they will take the money and have them continue on as if nothing happened.
This is their slap on the wrists as it has always resulted of such incidents happening within these leagues in the past. Corruption runs deep within European football behind the scenes of all the cameras and spotlights.
They do play today against Sevilla so we will see if even the announcers during the match have anything to say about it which they probably have a gag order put in place so they can not comment on such matters.
