La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[topbitcoin]

Real Madrid failed to win in their last match against Rayo Vallecano. Despite their good performance, the Real Madrid team could not score any goals in this match. Today they will face Braga. Braga team is weak compared to Real Madrid. However, the main weakness of Madrid is that Bellingham will not play in this match. Madrid's consistent performances in La Liga and the Champions League this season have only been due to Bellingham. Madrid's attack has weakened since Benzema's departure. Madrid's performance was stable thanks to Bellingham's excellent performance. I look forward to seeing how Madrid's players perform today without Bellingham. Braga is not a very strong team.

As I said before. It won't be a problem even if Jude won't play because in the end, if it is forced, it will create panic if Jude gets worse so that with their condition already safe they don't need to play all their core players at this time especially since their position is quite comfortable in the Champions League at this time.
On the other hand, it's also a good thing that Jude isn't in the squad so that they don't have to rely on him because Madrid is Madrid after all and Jude isn't the only player who can score goals for them.

Girona is really extraordinary, now Girona can take advantage of the inconsistency of Real Madrid and Barcelona so that Girona can become the leader of the La Liga standings at the moment, I think it is very possible for Girona to make a surprise if Barcelon and Real Madrid don't recover and can't be consistent in remaining games this season.

Actually, Girona got advantage with inconsistency performance from Real Madrid or Barcelona and make many points left on current standings position, last week Real Madrid loss their points after playing draw with Vallecano and current standings Girona lead behind two points left. On the paper, Girona have weakness opponent teams as Vallecano although last match success take one points from Real Madrid. Have play for the early than Madrid and Barcelona teams give another opportunity for Girona more confidence take three points on next matchday match to lead top standings.

Girona have several matches left before facing Barcelona, its great opportunity make many points left from Real Madrid or Barcelona to lead top position for several weeks later or until first half season ended.

With the defeat they suffered against Shakhtar, Barcelona will now have to work harder to secure their spot and qualify from this group stage. They have 9 points, the same as Porto. But Shakhtar are catching up with the 6 points they have accumulated from 4 matches. The points Barcelona have now are not really enough to make them safe.
It is a problem if in the next match they get an unsatisfactory result. I thought they would be safe after this 4th match, because before I predicted they would win, but what happened was not what was expected.

I think they are not in that much of a difficult position in CL despite the defeat. They just need a win to secure the spot in my opinion. Barcelona and Porto are on 9 and as you said Shakhtar is also closing up but Barcelona and Porto both have huge goal difference as compared to Shakhtar's so as long as Shakhtar doesn't wins their fixtures with Porto and Antwerp with huge difference I don't think it's a worrying situation but that too considering that Barcelona wins at least one. They will easily qualify, Shakhtar were a bit lucky and defended well throughout the end but apart from that Barca has the quality and I think they will easily advance to next stage from their CL group.

If Girona maintains their current form, they will be able to maintain their first-place position for an extended period of time, possibly even beyond the first half of the season. Girona has surprised many people by topping the league table so quickly, especially as the competition heats up. I don't have a problem with their current performance, but maintaining that performance and remaining in first place is something I doubt they can do. It has been a long time since we have seen clubs other than Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Atletico Madrid remain at the top of the table after more than 5 matches played since the start of the season. I just hope they continue this form because I’m rooting for them to go far and increase their rating in La Liga this season.

It seems likely that Bellingham will not play in the match against Braga. even though his status is in doubt, whether he can play or not. But in fact, it doesn't matter to Real Madrid even without Bellingham in this match. After all, Don Carlo can return his squad to its usual 4-3-3 formation pattern. However, there will be slight changes, especially the rotation of the players.
Even so, Anceloti still has the potential to apply the pattern he currently frequently uses. after all, they have the option of another player instead. Apart from that, this match was played at Santiago Bernabeu, El Real's headquarters. Whichever team will be the opponent, there will be a little mental pressure.

So, let's see how Braga plays their match at the Santiago Bernabeu. Well, now let's refer to the betting options, it is clear that there are differences based on the odds that the bookie presents. Madrid with odds @1.27, while Braga @10.00. Just looking at it from one side, we can already tell that the bookies favor Real Madrid in this match. IMO, Don Carlo will not waste this match to get full points to strengthen their position in first place. plus, after this match Ancelotti can focus on La Liga. So, 3 points is the result they must obtain. It's just that I wouldn't bet on this fight. Without Bellingam, Madrid was still able to win over Braga.

Matches in the Champions League are difficult to predict because after all, if we consider logically playing against Shakhtar Donetsk still makes Barcelona can fail to get points. So ya, if Barcelona plays against Porto, then maybe Barcelona will be more difficult to win, because basically the quality of Porto is at least better than Shakhtar Donetsk. With results like that, it maybe a difficult moment for Barcelona at this moment, because to qualify for the round of 16 in the Champions League is still not easy for Barcelona. While at the same time, Barcelona also still have to catch up in the current La Liga standings.

Maybe you're correct, But did you watch Leicester City when they returned to the Premier League? My guess is you didn't, for if you ever did, you'll know what Girona are doing exactly. They may not have that capacity and defeders even the attackers and experience against big clubs. That doesn't mean they can replicate same performance when they meet a big or smaller club. It's football, anything can happen.

I watched them against Real Madrid, and they played well, their defense just didn't do well contesting for balls in the air. They created chances, only found it difficult to beat Real Madrid right fullbacks and left fullbacks! Rudiger and David Alaba included, they won Real Madrid thengane that day.

Girona replicating what Leicester did in the Premier League might be crazy again owing to the fact that the big guns made quite some huge spendings in the summer and are still willing to make more in the January transfer window, let’s see how long Girona would be able to hold and hang on to their lead, I really hope the club has the financial capability to create a squad depth to be able t retain top spot for a while because we’re wuite early into the league.

 Would the likes of Jude Bellingham or Joao Felix, Gundogan want to give up on the league…. NO, They’ll sure come out with their fighting spirts and cause some worry to this Girona side, let's not forget that for decades now the competition for the title has been between Barcelona and Realmadrid and i think either of them would win the league this season.

Barcelona are not doing so well, they shouldn't have won against Real Sociedad in the first place last weekend, a win will always remain a win but the likes of Gundogan and Felix haven't been smiling. I don't know the kind of soccer Xavi Hernandez and his squad are playing.
Romeu as a player should be chased, he is not meant to play for Barcelona.

Jude Bellingham has been excellent and Real Madrid would need a new natural striker. What's with the news of drawing back from signing Kylian Mbappe?  I don't want to believe this news until it's time for the transfer window.

As long as that Competition can be competitive and interesting with Girona's stay at the top, I'd love that. I'd also love them qualifying for the European Competitions, they really deserves it.

The defeat is a reflection of their true strength in this season and how Barcelona have started the season on the wrong note and seeing that everything is happening with their current performance,  it also shows that their previous success in the league was solely based on luck and nothing more and if care is not taken,  the club may have a hard time in the season considering their present performance and what are the clubs that are on the line up for them in the next round of this season.

Xavi Hernandez will make more signings in January transfer window. Losses against Shakhtar Donetsk are inconsequential for a big team like Barcelona since they are against a club that is not a contender in the elite competitive system. Barcelona has not been in outstanding form this season, and they have yet to convince fans that they are capable of accumulating substantial points. Barcelona has already qualified for the next stage of the UCL with easy points. Their primary challenge at the moment is fighting for the La Liga title; they're in third place and have a couple of problems that appear to be a barrier for thr Blaugrana.

Yes, yesterday defeat was very sad but it also provided quite good lesson for Xavi because he already knows Barcelona weaknesses and if we talk about this seems like Barca attack line performance has dropped bit and the match against Porto still very long, around 2 weeks and this is Xavi opportunity to improve the quality of the club performance or is better to maintain the health of the main players so that they do not participate in LaLiga matches too often.
I still believe that Barca will at least continue to try to catch first place the points table and for me Girona current position will only be temporary and one side, Real madrid also trying to get rid of Girona from the top the points table and hopefully either Barcelona or Real Madrid will be able to get a place top.

[QueenVera]

Real Madrid will not be happy currently for them not to be topping the table after they drew their last match which made Girona to sit comfortable on the first position. This means that they will do everything possible to take back the first position back from Girona. It is obvious that Girona will not be able to remain on the top table for long because they will not be able to stand the pressure that it takes to be leading the league.

Girona is a club that nobody expected such beautiful performance from the this season but they have come out to surprise the world with the way they have kept their performance consistently in their various matches. Barcelona is something different this season and I doubt there will be a chance for them to win the league if they don't improve in their performance.

The result of every game played decides either a shift in the league table, either to the top or the bottom, in most cases, causes a more balanced stand in that particular position. Girona got that balance when Real Madrid shared a point in their last Spanish La Liga encounter. Real Madrid still has a chance to secure back their usual spot as Girona would only have to enjoy the seat for a few days.

 The contest for the top position then was always between Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, but Barcelona haven't been in their best game recently and this has made Girona out of the blue to rub shoulders in the top stand contest, It's a beautiful thing to see that teams that didn't really matter now matter and are unendingly leaving everyone in shock, we still hope to see that they make the race tough for Real Madrid as that would make for the beauty in Spanish Football.

Honestly, the defeat against Shakhtar is so awful, and I didn't expect from Barcelona that they wouldn't have created a single clear goal-scoring chance. After this match, Xavi will place more emphasis on team play, saying that no one has to rely on others; everyone has their own roles, and every player has done his job rightly. Now, Barcelona must win in upcoming matches in the UEFA Champions League competition; otherwise, they would not be qualified for the round of 16 if Shakhtar Donetsk lost against Antwerp.

By the way, Barcelona boss Xavi needs to take a lesson from this match, and he needs to improve his tactics, formation, etc. because with this type of game tactics, they won't win even a single trophy this season. Real Madrid holds the top spot in La Liga, and in UCL there is also a lack of performance by Barcelona, so they need to improve their lack of performance for the upcoming matches.

Actually, Girona got advantage with inconsistency performance from Real Madrid or Barcelona and make many points left on current standings position, last week Real Madrid loss their points after playing draw with Vallecano and current standings Girona lead behind two points left. On the paper, Girona have weakness opponent teams as Vallecano although last match success take one points from Real Madrid. Have play for the early than Madrid and Barcelona teams give another opportunity for Girona more confidence take three points on next matchday match to lead top standings.

Girona have several matches left before facing Barcelona, its great opportunity make many points left from Real Madrid or Barcelona to lead top position for several weeks later or until first half season ended.

Even if that is true, Girona is the only team to have only lost 4 points from 12 matches so far. Real Madrid and Barcelona's performance is not too bad, but Girona is still better in terms of current performance. Barcelona is the most inconsistent team of the three, but the points gap between them is not that different.

Real Madrid is 2 points behind Girona, Barcelona is 2 points behind Real Madrid, while Atletico Madrid is 2 points behind Barcelona. This is an interesting competition because Girona, who incidentally is not the favorite, managed to lead the standings above the favorite teams this season. We just don't know when Girona lost this position, but this is very possible considering that Real Madrid and the other 3 teams have a good chance to overtake.

I think that Barcelona’s chances are about 90%, but still some interesting options may arise: for example, if Porto wins against Barcelona in the next game with a difference of at least two goals, and Shakhtar wins against Antwerp, then in the last round nothing at all will depend on Barcelona ! Shakhtar's victory in the game with Porto will take Porto and Shakhtar into the 1/8.
I would like to see Xavi's press conference after this

Licester City is a very relevant example, I agree with that. Real Madrid, Barcelona and ATM indeed have better strengths than Girona, the three clubs have advantages in all aspects when compared to Girona, but sometimes the luck of these three clubs is still not great for the time, being it looks like that, we can refer to the standings as the proof.

The January Transfer Market can be a forum for any club to rebuild their squad, and of course this is in line with their financial side. It could be that there are several big names who will join La Liga when the transfer market opens, Girona can also make this happen so that they can continue to be consistent in the second half of the season.

Personally, and perhaps everyone has been impressed by Girona performances this season, if they can survive the first half of the season in their current way, it is clear that they are worthy candidates for the top four, for champions I still have a little doubt at the moment.

I don't yet imagine that Girona can win the La Liga title this season even though so far they lead the La Liga standings with a lead of 2.4, and 6 points ahead of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Girona have looked strong in 12 matches so far this season, but their consistency will be strongly tested by favorite teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

Until week 12, Girona was the strongest and best team in La Liga. They have won 10/12 matches and recorded 29 goals and conceded only 15 goals. Their defense isn't that great, but I admit that Girona are having a great season at the moment and they deserve at least some respect.

Girona have looked strong in 12 matches so far this season, but their consistency will be strongly tested by favorite teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

No one expects Girona to win against Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid in the race of the title this season. Girona still has a chance to lose points when they play against stronger teams in the next few matches. The favorite team wo win the title is Real Madrid, they have a better condition compared with Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. However, it is still matchday 12, there is a big possibility for some changes. Sometimes, when it is starting the second half of the season, some teams may change their performance a lot. I don't see Girona has a good squad depth, so I'm no really sure they can keep their good performance in the whole of the season. If they are leading the table now, I guess it is just for temporary.

Matches in the Champions League are difficult to predict because after all, if we consider logically playing against Shakhtar Donetsk still makes Barcelona can fail to get points. So ya, if Barcelona plays against Porto, then maybe Barcelona will be more difficult to win, because basically the quality of Porto is at least better than Shakhtar Donetsk. With results like that, it maybe a difficult moment for Barcelona at this moment, because to qualify for the round of 16 in the Champions League is still not easy for Barcelona. While at the same time, Barcelona also still have to catch up in the current La Liga standings.

Barcelona will qualify to the next round because they are performing well in the Champions Leagues and the La Liga. I don't think Porto will defeat Barcelona in the Camp Nou because they need to win the match in order to qualify, but I believe Porto will beat Shakhtar because Porto are in good form in their league. and I see is Porto and Barcelona will qualify to the next round, Barcelona did not put in as much effort yesterday against Shakhtar, which is why they defeated them, but I am very sure Porto will be defeated next game, expect Xavi to make some errors in the game because he does that sometimes, and Real Madrid have not lost any matches in the Champions League they are performing great, I think they will win all of their group stage matches because they have defeated Braga 3-0 now, I believe Real Madrid and Napoli can qualify from that group and I see Ancelotti will do his hardest to win the league and the Champions League this season before leaving the club as I believe this is his final season as coach of Real Madrid.

Seriously, Barcelona really needs to work hard if they want to qualify for the next round. It could be a great opportunity for Barcelona if they were the team that was opportune to win the match yesterday; by now, their chances of qualifying for next round could be higher. I know that the game was not going to be easy for Barcelona because I observed Shakhtar performances on their first round,but I never thought that Barcelona was not going to be opportune to win the match yesterday. Now I believe Shakhtar's mentalities of winning will increase, and they will also be giving their all in the remaining games in the group. Barcelona and Porto have a higher opportunity to qualify for the next round than Shakhtar, but the way the match is going now, I can't say anything about their next game.

Yes, yesterday's defeat was very sad but it also provided quite a good lesson for Xavi because he already knows Barcelona's weaknesses and if we talk about this it seems like Barca's attack line performance has dropped a bit and the match against Porto is still very long, around 2 weeks and this is Xavi's opportunity to improve. the quality of the club's performance or it is better to maintain the health of the main players so that they do not participate in LaLiga matches too often.

In this season both teams Barcelona and Real Madrid had problems in the attacks and they needed better stickers, in fact, Real Madrid couldn't hire any player after they lost Benzema and this damaged the whole team the other hand Barcelona only got Lewandoski as a center forward and they don't have any alternative options for this player that's why whenever he is not in the good form and he is injured Barcelona will have problems and that's the problem Xavi needs to solve it.
