La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Raflesia]

There are currently several names of players including Modric, Kroos, Lunin, Vasquez, Nacho Fernandes have contracts that have not been renewed. Their contracts expire at the end of the season, and it is a puzzle whether they stay or leave on a free. At the moment they also don't get many opportunities to play, because they are the 2nd option. But there is no official news yet, maybe if you don't extend the contract, Real Madrid will have to sell in the middle of the season soon. Otherwise, they will leave for free.

Now we actually have to wait to see what Madrid will do in the upcoming transfer season because if they end up looking for a few more players in midfield then it is certain that the future of some players will not be extended but if they will still work with the current squad then short-term contracts for some players will definitely be done especially for Modric and Kroos.
My hope for this is that they keep Kroos for at least another season, as for Modric, age is still a barrier but his performance is still very good so far and it is still worth it. But Madrid's history is that they very rarely use players older than 37 years old and Modric is the only old player they have now.

Yeah, like Modric, at his age, his contract is usually only extended annually, not for long. Actually they are still quite good, but not as good as before. And of course their flying hours will probably decrease, not just because of their age and performance, but the regeneration of players is quite significant and many are young and have good talent. And of course, Surely, there will be also more exciting rumors regarding Mbappe, this is like a repeat many times in every transfer season. And the next transfer season is an opportunity for both of them to really make it happen. If not, never mind, it's better to focus on other players who are more clear and possible.

[Humblevirus]

The game doesn't matter the team that dominated full time, what matters are the goals scored, that's the team that stand to secure three points. Watching the highlights and the opportunities Real Madrid failed to convert the ball to goals was hugh loss for the team.

Yes, football is not about the team that dominates the game but about the team that wins the game. Victory is what every club needs, not ball possession, and that is why different teams come up with different patterns that allow them to have a victory over any opponent. Honestly, Real Madrid had high chances to win the game, but all I will say is that they were not just lucky because they tried their best, but that is how football works sometimes. Real Madrid have played teams that are more in form than Rayo Vallencano, and they were able to win them,so draw Rayo Vallencano on the weekend. I just see that Lucky didn't work on them on the weekend.

[Leviathan.007]

Real Madrid attacked a lot but could not find any success. In particular, Real Madrid shot 22 total balls towards the goal post and Rayo shot 4 balls. In particular, I think Real Madrid have had this problem due to the absence of experienced strikers. And Real Madrid had the ball for most of the game but could not capitalize on it. And it was Real Madrid's failure to find scoring opportunities despite repeated corner kicks.

The game doesn't matter the team that dominated full time, what matters are the goals scored, that's the team that stand to secure three points. Watching the highlights and the opportunities Real Madrid failed to convert the ball to goals was hugh loss for the team. Real Madrid dropped points against an average team and that wouldn't have count for them, though it was consider as deadlock were they struggled and couldn't break differences. Rayo Vallecano was 100% ready for them and absorbed every attempts levelled towards them, Carlo Ancelotti was kind of disappointed but he will try again in next game.

The points they lost in Real Madrid and Barcelona will give them the chance to Girona to stay in the first place of the La Liga. I think the problem of Real Madrid was not something we didn't know, they lost Benzema as a target striker and this team could never hire another player like him while Mbappe and Osimhen were both linked to this team but they sued Jude Bellingham to score goasl which not going to working every time for Ancelotti and his team.

Real Madrid have quality players who are ever ready to go extra miles for the purpose to deliver the club. Carlo Ancelotti still knows the specific players he would use in tough games and the ones that will be consider as lesser priorities. Luka Modric is old and weak bones are his current build-up perhaps there are quite important services he do rendered for Real Madrid. I will never missed out on his crucial passes and crosses he does makes against his opponents, he's never playing like he's out of shape but he keeps sticking to the very best performance inother to enchanced his performance more.

[Alpha Marine]

After the international break, Barcelona has league matches against Rayo, then Atletico Madrid, the. Girona in that other.
I believe those sets of matches are going to determine a lot about how the season will look for Barcelona. That is an opportunity to give Atletico more gap so even if they win their outstanding match, they'll still be ahead.
It's also an opportunity for Barcelona to cut the gap that Girona has over them.
I know the season is still long and very open but it is matches like this that determine who will be top at the end of the season.
Girona has been in a very good form and with the current form of Barcelona, which is not consistent it's going to be a tough match.

Yes, even though he is quite old, we all know who Luka Modric is and how he performed when he was at Real Madrid. This players has always made quite a good contribution and if he only had to extend one years, that would not be a problem for Luka Modric because this would be safer than Ancelotti having to take the risky to continue to rely on him for too long because a good future for Real Madrid is young players who have new talents and even though they are currently being retained, when the time comes, Luka Modric must be ready to accept that he has to leave Real Madrid's.

Benzema was just the perfect striker for Real Madrid because the club is seriously affected by his absence but however just like you said, at least they should have look for a good striker that could play the role of Benzema very well in other to cover those lapsis, perhaps Mbappe would have been a perfect replacement for Benzema.

But there position on the league table is still very good so if they should maintain there winings there is every tendency for them to enter first place on the league table.

Well I belief that other clubs will learn a lot of lessons from what is happening to Real Madrid and at that will make enough adjustment that will avoided possible such outcome of things because real Madrid was one club that have performed pretty well in both the la Liga and even in the champion leagues.

But since the last few seasons back,  the club have failed to prove beyond any significant doubt that Bezema was the brain behind all their previous success and he has been doing well in his current club,  while Real Madrid has not been able to recover.

Time passes without sparing anyone, and 37-year-old Age is often considered the end of a football player's career. But Luka Modric is one of the few players who can prove that he is still capable of playing at the highest level even though he is no longer young. In some recent matches, he still showed good performance. I expect him to start in the next games. He should retire from his career at the Bernabeu. The Bernabeu stadium owner will continue to extend the contract. Perhaps the decision lies with Modric.

And of course, Surely, there will be also more exciting rumors regarding Mbappe, this is like a repeat many times in every transfer season. And the next transfer season is an opportunity for both of them to really make it happen. If not, never mind, it's better to focus on other players who are more clear and possible.

This is just a rumor that the press wants to stir up. I think PSG is not mentally ready for Mbappé to leave this season. They will try to keep or sell him at a very high price to have money to recruit another star to replace him. Currently, he is the central striker of PSG.

[TelolettOm]

Benzema was just the perfect striker for Real Madrid because the club is seriously affected by his absence but however just like you said, at least they should have look for a good striker that could play the role of Benzema very well in other to cover those lapsis, perhaps Mbappe would have been a perfect replacement for Benzema.

Yes, Benzema was an ideal striker for Real Madrid. He replaced the role as a machine goal left by Ronaldo. Now, there is no player who can replace the role's left by Benzema. It is a serious problem for Real Madrid, especially when they play against a strong team. They even get difficulty to score goals, Bellingham can't always perform well in every match. With this situation, it is true that Real Madrid needs a strong striker like Mbappe or Osimhen. But it is not easy to sign them because it requires a big money and their clubs try to keep them.

But there position on the league table is still very good so if they should maintain there winings there is every tendency for them to enter first place on the league table.

They fail to maintain their position in the top of the table. Now, Real Madrid is in 2nd place after they only got a draw result against Rayo Vallecano. In the match, they failed to score goals, which proves the urgent of a top striker.

Girona has been in a very good form and with the current form of Barcelona, which is not consistent it's going to be a tough match.

La Liga have one match before international break out upcoming next week, current standings Girona still managed top position awhile after Real Madrid got draw against Rayo Vallecano. Next match, the top standings Girona will away against Rayo Vallecano and Real Madrid vs Valencia, the third team standing Barcelona will face Alaves and looks all top teams will not get difficult to get three points except Real Madrid will recovery to the winning trend after getting draw from Vallecano last match.
I hope this season La Liga fighting tittle race more interested, Girona have most consistency performance and make Real Madrid or Barcelona not easily for winning domestic league. Except still have Atletico Madrid with one match left will make compete current standings in La Liga behind fewest points left.

Modric is still capable enough to play even until his age will be 40 years old. It's very clear that if modric may get another 1 year contract extension or he will join with ronaldo to play in the saudi pro league.
There are still many possibilities that can happen soon but i do believe that if modric will perform even better than before. Look at how the impact being made by him in the match against barcelona. Kroos was quite young compared with modric but if we are talking about the level between these midfielders and i must say modric was in another level compared with kroos. Modric was three times UCL winners in a row. It makes sense if real madrid still needs his service.
Modric can only play in the very important match like el classico. This guy is always able changing the situation for real madrid. Im waiting for saudi pro league club will try to approach him as well.

Modric's future will be determined at the end of the season, as will Kroos'. I tend to think that Real Madrid are already prepared to lose their two best midfielders next season because this season Ancelotti started to rotate more for them. Modric and Kross haven't had many chances to play together in one game this season, so it's a sign that they are starting to fall by the wayside and will only be replaced by younger midfielders.

Their form is still good, but I don't think Real Madrid will get Modric and Kroos much more seasons after this season. Both veterans will only have their contracts terminated at the end of the season, so I don't think it is very likely that they will be retained by Real Madrid. Retaining older players is not Real Madrid's habit so far, so these two players have the potential to leave at the end of the season.

Athletic Bilbao managed to come out of a tough Villareal away with a win. The away team started the match fast and scored 3 goals in the first half to take the lead. Although Villareal actually had a good squad, they couldn't find their form. While the match ended 3-2 with Bilbao's superiority, Villareal scored 2 goals in the last 6 minutes.
Real Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano ended in a goalless draw. Both teams struggled to find goals despite being in form in the last few weeks. Real Madrid played dominant at home, but wasted a lot of chances.

The match between Real Madrid and Vallecano caused big surprises. Those who expected Real to score a lot of goals against Rayo were wrong and neither team managed to score a goal in the match. Maybe Ancelotti didn't want to take too much risk for the UCL game. As a result, they lost 2 points and this took them out of the league leadership.

I myself also thought Real Madrid could win yesterday's match against Rayo, Judging from Rayo's current ranking which is far below Real Madrid, I wonder why Real Madrid could not win against Rayo. By being known as a strong team but from losing 2 points it makes Real Madrid drop from its first rank, this is not a good thing but it is a reality like this there will definitely be wins and losses.

In addition to the news that the injury of their midfielder Bellingham, who has a big impact on Real Madrid, will now be absent due to injury, this may make it difficult for Real Madrid for the next matches. Real Madrid should immediately look for other players who play as midfielders as well to replace Bellingham's position which of course they cannot continue to depend on Bellingham.

Real Madrid attacked a lot but could not find any success. In particular, Real Madrid shot 22 total balls towards the goal post and Rayo shot 4 balls. In particular, I think Real Madrid have had this problem due to the absence of experienced strikers. And Real Madrid had the ball for most of the game but could not capitalize on it. And it was Real Madrid's failure to find scoring opportunities despite repeated corner kicks.

Well that's right, I also think it looks like Real Madrid lacks an experienced striker, although now their front line is filled with Vini and Bellingan the young star player, it will not be enough if they alone of course there must be an experienced striker, Real Madrid must look for an experienced striker in the upcoming transfer market.

Although with Bellingham this young player in my opinion cannot replace the role of Karim Benzema completely, and indeed they should look for an experienced striker so as not to continue to depend on Bellingham because if they continue to depend on this young player it might be difficult or become homework for Ancelotti when this young player gets injured as it is currently reported that Bellingham is injured.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

This was unexpected. Literally, nobody probably expected this result. And, to those people, if this does not show that Real Madrid really needs a striker, I don't know what will. The skill from Real Madrid was really good. The buildup was also good. But the finishing was not there. The amount of chances that Real Madrid got in this match was honestly unbelievable. And they definitely should have been able to score in this match. They were able to score but clearly, that was offside. Real Madrid really needs to bring in a striker in the very next transfer market. Otherwise, they are going to suffer later.

For a football observer or supporter, this was unexpected because Real Madrid had to draw with a team that was much better than them. But for Ancelotti, analysis of previous and ongoing matches must be a consideration that must have a quick solution because when their attack line is unable to score goals there must be a solution to the problem. Ancelotti tried to use Joselu to help the team but he failed to carry out his duties and it was clear that when Belligham was unable to score a goal there was no other player who was able to take on that role.

Bellligham will become increasingly tired when he is forced to continue playing with Real Madrid's busy match schedule, which will further affect fitness and result in players not being in the best condition. This condition is what Ancelotti needs to consider and he must also have a solution on the front lines if he doesn't want to experience the same thing in the next match.

Bellingham is not a striker, he plays as a midfielder, but currently Bellingham's role is big enough to fill the void in the front line and if Bellingham can't do that, maybe Real Madrid will have gone through many matches without winning.
This season Bellingham has often been the hero of victory for Real Madrid with the goals he scored to ensure victory and that is a clear sign that Real Madrid's front line is playing badly.
Vinicius' performance has declined and since recovering from injury until now he has not been able to return to his best performance, while Rodrygo, who has been given full trust, has not yet been able to prove himself.
Yes, it is true that Real Madrid really needs an experienced striker now.

[harapan]

The game doesn't matter the team that dominated full time, what matters are the goals scored, that's the team that stand to secure three points. Watching the highlights and the opportunities Real Madrid failed to convert the ball to goals was hugh loss for the team.

Yes, football is not about the team that dominates the game but about the team that wins the game. Victory is what every club needs, not ball possession, and that is why different teams come up with different patterns that allow them to have a victory over any opponent. Honestly, Real Madrid had high chances to win the game, but all I will say is that they were not just lucky because they tried their best, but that is how football works sometimes. Real Madrid have played teams that are more in form than Rayo Vallencano, and they were able to win them,so draw Rayo Vallencano on the weekend. I just see that Lucky didn't work on them on the weekend.

Real Madrid have extended players contacts and that is good, but having no good striker obsessed with scoring goals makes them a weak team in La liga.  Real Madrid knows how to control games and keep possession. They played everywhere and everything in that game versus Rayo Vallecano but they could not score. Jude Bellingham has been the player doing most of the goal scoring having joselu does not work and help the team for if he has he should be leading the just same as Jude Bellingham with twelve goals.

After the international break, Barcelona has league matches against Rayo, then Atletico Madrid, the. Girona in that other.
I believe those sets of matches are going to determine a lot about how the season will look for Barcelona. That is an opportunity to give Atletico more gap so even if they win their outstanding match, they'll still be ahead.
It's also an opportunity for Barcelona to cut the gap that Girona has over them.
I know the season is still long and very open but it is matches like this that determine who will be top at the end of the season.
Girona has been in a very good form and with the current form of Barcelona, which is not consistent it's going to be a tough match.

Having Girona at the top shows Real Madrid,  Sevilla, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid Valencia included  should buckle up and lace up. These clubs are not performing like they do normally. They have let Girona lead them even if Girona are not hardworking,  these clubs mentioned should sit up and also make the tittle race difficult.  If Girona meets any of these sides and wins three out of six, then they can remain in the top four for long.   Barcelona would not win if they play same way they did last night to Girona. Points will be extended further.

[iBaba]

The points they lost in Real Madrid and Barcelona will give them the chance to Girona to stay in the first place of the La Liga. I think the problem of Real Madrid was not something we didn't know, they lost Benzema as a target striker and this team could never hire another player like him while Mbappe and Osimhen were both linked to this team but they sued Jude Bellingham to score goasl which not going to working every time for Ancelotti and his team.

Of course, it will not be an every day thing for Jude Bellingham because he's not a finishing striker in the first place but the guy has done well so far so good. Like I've mentioned earlier, Osimhen or Mbappe will do many good things to Real Madrid but the club must also ensure that they signed the right deal especially as they plan to bring Mbappe.

I feel like they became relaxed and comfortable with being at the top of the table the last time, unfortunately, that has affected them in their performance against Vallecano as a single goal would have awarded them with three points. Now Girona have  took up the table and their struggle to maintain that stance is credible.

Vallecano have always gotten that away game ability with 4 wins, 5 draws, and only 2 losses including the on the last game in nearly 80% unbeaten rate in their last 11 matches. A good record of performance.

Benzema was just the perfect striker for Real Madrid because the club is seriously affected by his absence but however just like you said, at least they should have look for a good striker that could play the role of Benzema very well in other to cover those lapsis, perhaps Mbappe would have been a perfect replacement for Benzema.

Real madrid didn't have someone like him at this moment but the club is still able performing better like when benzema was there. There is no a lot of change even when the club without him. Some players are capable enough in scoring so many goals like bellingham.
The only last piece to complete the puzzle of real is having a great striker who can perform as good as benzema. Real madrid will become unbeaten team with a great striker like benzema.

But there position on the league table is still very good so if they should maintain there winings there is every tendency for them to enter first place on the league table.

Real madrid is possible to winning the league this season caused by there are no lots of club that can compete with it. Barcelona and girona probably the only strongest team that were capable enough in beating real madrid in the competition for la liga.
I think that everything is possible. Madrid needs to find the last piece of its puzzle.
