La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[KTChampions]

The performance of Lewandowski in Barcelona has been very disappointing so far in this season and this play didn't start the season well. Maybe it would have been better for him and Barcelona if this player had left Barcelona for the Arabian teams during last summer because so far Lewandowski hasn't scored a single goal in the six games and this is enough to say Lewandowski is under pressure in Barcelona. The last time this player was in bad form was in 2011 when Lewandowski couldn't score a goal in six games and this is happening again.

At the moment, the rumors are just that: Lewandowski will move to Saudi Arabia in the summer. And in fact, I don’t see any other option - he’s getting old quickly and given the fact that for Barcelona he was initially a temporary option and that his effectiveness is declining, it’s time to part ways. Even if he played at the level of last year, it would be unprofitable for Barcelona to keep him since next year he will be 36 years old - no prospects.

If you have noticed there is some decline in Real Madrid's performance in the league for a couple of weeks. It is more like an inconsistency actually because there is an example like a win in the El Clasico recently as well. They couldn't beat Vallecano the last time no matter how hard they tried. It was quite unexpected.

Of course top teams don't always win their games. But while Girona are this much dominant in the league I thought Real Madrid wouldn't make a point loss in such game. There must be so many people who bet on Real Madrid for that game and sometimes unlucky things happen.

Sociedad was successfully gets the winning result from Benfica yesterday and this result also makes them qualified to round of 16 and Sociedad performance at Champion league was quite impressive that 4 matches with unbeatable status makes them can able to occupy first place on group standings and this is surprising result because previously some people were doubt Sociedad can able to performing well in that competition but apparently Sociedad can fliped people prediction

In Laliga Sociedad upcoming match relatively easy because this weekend they will fight against Almeria and we all know Almeria is weak team and Sociedad should be easily to beat that team however i have been notice Sociedad performance during this season that they got 3 lose but mostly from big teams such as Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Real Madrid but if Sociedad fight against mediocre teams they always had good results so in my opinion Sociedad can easily to beat Almeria this weekend and for betting option Sociedad has odds @1.74

They were very impressive yesterday they really used the home advantage perfectly and played better to get good result, Real Sociedad qualifying for the Champions League shows how serious the are in the competition, they don't have much experience in the UCL like Benfica and every other team in the their group but they really tried to dominate and even be ahead of Inter in the group table and already qualified for the round of 16.

 This win against Benfica would boost their confidence level in their Domestic league match against Almeria, you're right, Almeria is not a team that would pressure Sociedad cause if they could easily beat Benfica that are doing well in the Portuguese league, then beating Almeria won't be a very big issue for them, I expect Sociedad to get a good score line like 2-3 goals upwards against Almeria, @1.74 is a good odd for betting therefore I'll give Sociedad straight win.

Real Madrid's performance in last couple of weeks shows that they lack of clinical forward, they played good and dominated the games, but they struggle to score. we could see that some of their goals come at the last minutes of the games after missing some chances throughout the games. this also related to the opponents who already can anticipate how Real Madrid build attacks which is lack of variations.

the lack of clinical forward makes Madrid struggle to face the low block of defensive line of their opponents. this is one of the reasons that bellingham is their Top scorer right now.

This week, Girona as the leader of the standings will face Rayo Vallecano at the Campo de Fútbol de Vallecas home to Rayo Vallecano.
I thought Girona would be quite the favorite because the two teams are quite different in condition, but apparently, the betting market doesn't give Girona odds as the favorite team with a big difference to their opponent, so we can predict that this will be a fairly even match, Rayo has a chance of getting points in this match, but Girona certainly doesn't want Real Madrid to take their position so getting 3 points is their main target.
Their last two meetings ended in draws and seeing how Rayo has had six draws this season, the match ending in a draw is very likely, and a draw will again make the competition in the standings interesting because the difference in points between the teams in the top three has reduced again.

The match against Rayo Vallecano will be like a test for Girona to maintain their top position this week and maybe if they lose control of securing full points in this match then Real Madrid will be ready to overtake them again. Competition in the top flight this season is very healthy with Girona as a newcomer and it is no wonder that Real Madrid and Barcelona have to fight hard to be able to take over the helm at the top flight. I think there is a possibility of a draw especially since Rayo Vallecano was previously able to hold Real Madrid to a draw which was very strong away from home and if Rayo Vallecano can do more than just draw then that will be a better result for them. Moreover, Rayo Vallecano's competition to secure 6th position and at the same time shift Real Betis is only 2 points away.

For Rayo Vallecano to hold down a consistent and remarkable Real Madrid down to a full time draw is another impressive results we have seen last weekend. This is a result Barcelona wasn't able to get against Real Madrid and. Rayo Vallecano did that.
I do not expect Rayo Vallecano to win at home but they could go ahead to holding Girona from having another fantastic weekend playing away. They Girona have scored more goals in the second half of the game in the last three games they have played. I would one to try that again, they should have their highest scoring half in the second half of the game.

My second options and opinion for this game should be a full draw. It is well written over the game. Girona should make sure they qualify for any of the European Competitions.

The last time this player was in bad form was in 2011 when Lewandowski couldn't score a goal in six games and this is happening again.

Robert Lewandowski is no longer looking stunning this season. It seems like his age has really affected his performance. In fact, not all players over 35 years can maintain the good performance they have. And it seems that Robert Lewandowski is one of the players who cannot maintain his performance even though he is no longer young. But still he is still really needed at Barcelona. Because there is no suitable player to replace him. But I want to say honestly that actually other players in the current Barcelona squad also have almost the same decline in performance. They seem to have experienced a decline in self-confidence. I hope Xavi can overcome this soon. Because I hope Barcelona can continue to go further in the UCL. I don't care who wins the trophy this season in Laliga. But I really hope Barcelona can go further in the UCL and compete for the title.

Honestly, I also observe the same thing in his performance; he is no longer performing like before, and I think that due to his age, many players are not performing excellently when they reach 35yrs, and I think with his current performance, we can count him among them. However,  I also think it’s because they don’t have anyone else, which is why he is still playing for them. Till when they get new players, Xavi should take the necessary steps before things get worse for them. However, with the current performance of Barcelona in the UCL competition, I can say we will still rate them as one of the best teams in the UCL, so the only thing is for them to put in more effort so that they have something to deliver, even if they are not the winner of the trophy.

Rayo successfully hold Real Madrid to a draw result when playing Away, is a good record and indeed it is not easy to get points against Real Madrid which are on fire so far. Girona have not easy opponents this week, especially they will be playing away at there. I wouldn't be surprised if that result a draw as you guess, because based on head to head Girona also had quite difficulty a against Rayo.

But also Girona still has a chance to win there, considering that this season they have been very impressive. So, maybe I will pick a better option to bet than a draw, because there are still other possibilities. Double chance might be better for me by betting on Draw or Away.

Football doesn't actually work that way and the Rayo Vallecano were able to hold Real Madrid to a goalless draw doesn't automatically mean that they have a big chance of doing the same against Girona or even winning the game.
Girona is the highest scoring club in the Spanish La Liga this season and playing against Rayo Vallecano away this Saturday, I expect them to win the game because it'll be almost impossible for Rayo Vallecano to stop a very prolific Girona team from scoring. I think the game will either end with a Girona win or they'll share the spoils

[Asiska02]

But looking at Benzema and how he is doing in the desert doesn't feel like giving him away was a big loss. I doubt that he would have been a great striker this season. More injuries are coming to him and he also lost some steam to show top performances. But I think Real Madrid doesn't have a big striker problem. They are still ok and it is not like the worst case scenario which is sometimes painted here. If they can get along with Bellingham this season to fill that gap whenever possible and Joselu also scores more or less reliably, they have all options for next season to go all in on a striker position financially.

Benazema’s performance there shouldn’t be linked to what he was playing at Real Madrid. If not for being an injury prone on the Saudi professional league, he’s still doing well there although not as much when he was still in La Liga playing for Real Madrid. I think the level of seriousness and quality football still depends on the environment you find yourself and how competitive it is to play in such leagues.

Depending on Bellingham will be a very risky thing to do for them, he is actually doing well now and contributing to most of the wins in that club but we can’t say for how long and if his performance remains consistent, he could go on injury at anytime which we don’t pray for. Diversifying your choice of players is very good for the team so that they can have more options to play with when any unforeseen situation occurs.

Their last two meetings ended in draws and seeing how Rayo has had six draws this season, the match ending in a draw is very likely, and a draw will again make the competition in the standings interesting because the difference in points between the teams in the top three has reduced again.

I have a slightly different opinion looking at and analyzing Girona upcoming match against Rayo, it is likely that it will not end in a draw and the chances of victory will be greater for Girona even though Rayo succeeded in holding off Real Madrid attack, but against Girona I believe the surprise will come when Girona manages to beat Rayo and will have difficulty ending the match in a draw.

I have not seen what the odds are for Girona and Rayo but I am sure Girona will win.

I can't believe a club like Girona that just moved up from relegation barely a year ago could have done the great things they've already done. In the last season, they finished 10th on the table just after being promoted. Maybe that was to stabilise themselves and get acquainted with the La Liga 1st division, however, what is happening now shows that they really understand the game and I don't see them ending this season lower than the 4th position if they continue like this. They've been impressive even in the friendly matches and have beaten unexpected teams this season. Therefore, I will not think less of such a club to beat Rayo Vallecano which has had a lower rating than them.

But I will still not limit praises on Rayo Vallecano as they are so good with their defence and have tried to concede fewer goals recently. It would be more tasking for Girona to slice through their defense which is another issue at hand. But the good news is that the scoring sense of Rayo Vallecano is also weak, a moderate defence from Girona might be an issue for them to penetrate as well. Meaning that if Girona could mount more pressure on Rayo Vallecano's defence, they may not score much but they might score at least once and a maximum of 2 goals.

[Leviathan.007]

It seems Arda Güler is still not in good form, when Real Madrid hired this young player, we were expecting to see an amazing performance from this young Turkish talent but he was mostly injured during this season and he couldn't have much chance to prove his himself.
Also, in the game between Real Madrid and Braga when Real Madrid was winning the game and they could use the younger players, still Ancelotti didn't use Güler however, at the end of the game he hugged Güler. Güler should try harder to attract Ancelotti's attention.

So football works your way by saying Girona would win? Lol! Girona for the past few weeks have got to be my favorite to maintain the top of the league until January but in a game like this, I'm hoping they could get a win too and at the same time, looking at their chances just same way it's got to be. I'm also banking on Girona to score the highest goals in the second half since they have done consecutively for the last three fixtures in La Liga.
They could end up winning, losing and drawing. It's either my bet seals or Girona wins and maintain the top. Having that club makes the table consistent and motivates smaller clubs to go harder to the top.

I won't be boggled seeing them replicate Leicester City as they went on to win the Premier League that same year.

I believe that Girona will lose eventually, they can't keep this up, would it be this game? I have no idea, they may win or lose this game but that doesn't change the fact that I can see them be fourth at best this season.

I think Real and Barcelona will be the top two, and Girona will fight against ATM for the third position, to be fair they may end up winning that fight and ending the season third place as well, that wouldn't be really a shocker, but they could end up being fourth as well, that wouldn't be a shocker neither. In any case, I do not see a single chance for Girona to end up either first or second on this league, not this season, they need to grow a lot more for that to be a possible thing for them in the end.

About Lewandowski, im very surprised by his bad performance in this last run, i dont know what is happening to him , or also the team is not prividing him with good balloons so he can strike.

I think is his last season at Barcelona, i dont know if he is gonna move on summer, because what other highg class forward you can go to find to replace him?

[hahay]

It is Lewandowski own desire to play at Barcelona and also, Lewandowski is under a fairly long contract at Barcelona until 2026, while Lewandowski age is no longer young . With these factors, then I sure Lewandowski will not leave that quickly because after all, it seems Lewandowski has a high interest in playing at Barcelona . So ya, it doesn't matter that Barcelona lost and or Lewandowski played badly in his last match because of course, Barcelona also still has a good chance to qualify for the last 16 in the Champions League. Also in La Liga, although this season Barcelona is not as good as last season with great dominance in La Liga, but at least Barcelona is also still fine because Barcelona can compete well in the top four positions in La Liga this seasons.

In Laliga Sociedad upcoming match relatively easy because this weekend they will fight against Almeria and we all know Almeria is weak team and Sociedad should be easily to beat that team however i have been notice Sociedad performance during this season that they got 3 lose but mostly from big teams such as Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Real Madrid but if Sociedad fight against mediocre teams they always had good results so in my opinion Sociedad can easily to beat Almeria this weekend and for betting option Sociedad has odds @1.74

 This win against Benfica would boost their confidence level in their Domestic league match against Almeria, you're right, Almeria is not a team that would pressure Sociedad cause if they could easily beat Benfica that are doing well in the Portuguese league, then beating Almeria won't be a very big issue for them, I expect Sociedad to get a good score line like 2-3 goals upwards against Almeria, @1.74 is a good odd for betting therefore I'll give Sociedad straight win.

Yes, I agree that the next match for Real Sociedad is going to be easy. Because the next match is against Almeria. And they are at the absolute bottom of the table. They are yet to win a match in this season. So it should be a walk in the park for Real Sociedad. Let's be honest, the performance from Real Sociedad has been a little inconsistent so far. And this is going to be a great chance for them to grab three points. If they cannot pick up three points from this match, it is going to feel like they lost the match, even if it is a draw.

I think the game will either end with a Girona win or they'll share the spoils

Yeah, Girona is very prolific in scoring. And I already said would choose to bet on the better option for me in Draw or Away (Girona). Considering that Girona is currently at the top in the standings La Liga, this will make them even more motivated to stay away from Real Madrid. At least the possibility are in that direction right? rather than choosing to take the risk of betting on the draw result anyway.

About Lewandowski, im very surprised by his bad performance in this last run, i dont know what is happening to him , or also the team is not prividing him with good balloons so he can strike.

I think is his last season at Barcelona, i dont know if he is gonna move on summer, because what other highg class forward you can go to find to replace him?

Maybe it was due to injury, which caused his bad performance. After all, Lewandowski also already old. Who know, maybe you'rw right! But also Barcelona doesn't have a lot of money to recruit a high-class other striker, and Lewandowski contract will expire in 2026, so I think Barcelona will probably continue to use Lewandowski services for next season.

[Weawant]

Barcelona loosing to Shakhtar Donetsk is a sign that they are gradually loosing their strength this season, you could recall that after the el clasico, they have been characterized with some inconsistency in their performance most recently and some times struggle.

They did performed slightly above average against Shakhtar Donetsk but loosing was not expected of them even tho we know that it has little to no impact on their qualifications to the next stage of the champions league but then it was somehow disappointing that they lost to a team that will be considered average in the UCL, before the match we would think they would have no challenge winning Shakhtar Donetsk, I hope Barcelona doesn't continue in this form and improve better.

[indah rezqi]

I believe that Girona will lose eventually, they can't keep this up, would it be this game? I have no idea, they may win or lose this game but that doesn't change the fact that I can see them be fourth at best this season.

I think Real and Barcelona will be the top two, and Girona will fight against ATM for the third position, to be fair they may end up winning that fight and ending the season third place as well, that wouldn't be really a shocker, but they could end up being fourth as well, that wouldn't be a shocker neither. In any case, I do not see a single chance for Girona to end up either first or second on this league, not this season, they need to grow a lot more for that to be a possible thing for them in the end.

I agree with you, we know that Girona is quite easy to beat by teams that are much stronger than them. We know that Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico will not let Girona lead the standings arbitrarily, so they could become a direct threat in the hunt for the championship trophy this season. On the one hand, Girona looks like they will be able to finish in the top four of the standings when the season ends, this can clearly be seen from the way they have secured 3 points in every match they have played.

Maybe the luck they have now is due to the lack of injured players, and the small number of matches they have, so they are able to be like today. The competition will be fiercer when the season enters the second half, we will see whether Girona can overcome the heavier pressure there, personally I doubt that.

[ndutndut]

If you have noticed there is some decline in Real Madrid's performance in the league for a couple of weeks. It is more like an inconsistency actually because there is an example like a win in the El Clasico recently as well. They couldn't beat Vallecano the last time no matter how hard they tried. It was quite unexpected.

Real Madrid is always like that when they play against weak teams and are always unable to score goals, even though they just beat Barca but after that they ended up sharing points with Rayo Vallecano. The failure to get full points in that match was due to line-up errors and player substitutions. What's wrong with Ancelotti rotating players? We know that the bench is still waiting, Brahim, Arda and others can really be relied on when you're not experiencing a deadlock, especially Brahim, who has a good record with AC Milan. And this was proven against Braga. Ancelotti made several rotations and it worked with a landslide victory against Braga in the UCL.

Of course top teams don't always win their games. But while Girona are this much dominant in the league I thought Real Madrid wouldn't make a point loss in such game. There must be so many people who bet on Real Madrid for that game and sometimes unlucky things happen. 

Of course, many people bet on Real Madrid in that match and all of them were unlucky, including myself.
