La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[topbitcoin]

Real Madrid was unlucky on the FIFA day and in the game between Colombia and Brazil, they got another injured player, 27 minutes after the start of the game, Vinicius Junior, the Brazilian player of Real Madrid couldn't continue the game against Colombia and this is bad news for Real Madrid because Vinicius Junior was recently in the good form and he is definitely an effective player for his team.

The same injury on the same foot as before is likely to be a little troublesome. Previously in August he also had a problem which at that time he had to rest for 1 month and even now there is still no further confirmation from Madrid about Vini's foot problem but if you see before in August I think this will take a little longer and this will be a loss again for Madrid considering that in the last few matches Vini's performance and adaptation have looked very good but if he is injured again then indeed this will take more time to restore his performance again.

La Liga dominance teams only Real Madrid and Barcelona but Atletico Madrid ever won in season 2020/21, although last two season La Liga dominance by Real Madrid and Barcelona who take turns winning with Madrid season 2021/22 then Barcelona on last season. Good appreciated by Atletico Madrid management give extended contract from their manager Diego Simione will extend until June 2027 after his contributing winning two La Liga tittle.

Yes. In each season, there are only 3 teams which compete for the titles. Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid too dominate the La Liga competition. They are too strong, other teams have no capability to compete with them. Well, it was quite surprising that Atletico Madrid could win the title in the season 2020-2021. And for this season, we have Girona which is leading the La Liga standings now. Will Girona win the La Liga title this season? If they win the title, it will be a big surprise for this season. However, TBH I a bit doubt it.

The 3 teams mentioned are indeed the holders of dominance in La Liga, they take turns to be able to get a title. But in certain seasons there will be one team emerging as their competitor, such as Sevilla, although in the end they also had to lose consistency and could only return to 4th place. This season another team has emerged, Girona, who are currently at the top of the table. Whether they will have the same fate as Sevilla is something to look forward to.

It is very difficult for a team like Girona to win the La Liga title. There is no doubt that they are top of the table and doing very well. But we are not sure if the team will be able to do well in the long run. If you want to win the La Liga title, there must be consistency in performance. And to play consistently well until the end of the season. It will be difficult for Girona to maintain consistency if a key player in their squad suffers an injury. But it will be a miracle if Girona are champions.

Personally, I consider Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid as favourites for the La Liga title. However, I would put Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid slightly ahead of Barcelona. The squads of these two teams are quite strong this season and their performances are also regular.

The only way for Girona to win the La Liga trophy apart from having to consistently get points is a decline in the performance of the three teams, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Apart from the above scenario I doubt they can do it, and expecting the three favorite clubs to decline in terms of performance is not a good idea for Girona.

Personally, I am also very impressed with their improvement in performance this season, perhaps this is also felt by everyone who is enjoying the competition in the top four of the La Liga standings this season. It is not an easy matter to try to top the standings and create a points gap with the three favorite clubs that I mentioned earlier, but Michel squad has so far been able to do it.

It will be very interesting to see how Girona journey ends this season, after seeing how they struggle to get 3 points in every match, I am quite sure they will take the step to join the UCL next season by finishing in the top four of the standings. However, they must be very careful in the january transfer market, so as not to lose their players to move and leave the club.

You are right. If Girona want to win the title then they must have consistency in their performance. And at the same time the performance of Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atlético Madrid should decline. Otherwise, it will not be possible for Girona to become champions of La Liga.

I would say that Girona must win against Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid if they want to win the title. If Girona can beat these three teams, they will be able to stay at the top of the points table. If they don't win against these three teams, it won't be easy for Girona to hold the top spot in the table.

Girona team played against Real Madrid this season and Girona lost the match 3-0. I look forward to seeing Girona's performances against Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

I'm of the same opinion with yours, Barcelona in their most recent form doesn't look like they would be able to make it to the top of the table soonest lest alone becoming the champions this season, they were much better earlier but since after the match against Real Madrid they seem to have dropped in their performance.

Real Madrid have continually showed some kind of consistency which has been maintained till this point that they are now no the top of the table and even looking very promising with the league title this season, they also have similar performance at the champions league and may want to contend to win the UCL aswell, Athletico Madrid is aswell do good with their performance and currently look better when compared to Barcelona.

Real Madrid was unlucky on the FIFA day and in the game between Colombia and Brazil, they got another injured player, 27 minutes after the start of the game, Vinicius Junior, the Brazilian player of Real Madrid couldn't continue the game against Colombia and this is bad news for Real Madrid because Vinicius Junior was recently in the good form and he is definitely an effective player for his team.

Its my reason why not happy with international break out and have many players return the club with injury condition, after Camavinga and right now Vinicius Jr have been injury and out from Brazil squad for upcoming match against Argentina. Still not confirmed yet from The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) how many weeks Vinicius jr have be absent exactly have many crucial matches for Real Madrid in La Liga and UEFA Champion League. Recently, Madrid have loss Camavinga after getting injured and out from France squad, have official confirmed with possibility Camavinga absent until January next year and he will absent on many matches.

In international break out, Real Madrid have internal problem with England national team after Jude Bellingham push have to play for England on qualifier round regarding he still on injury condition with Real Madrid. Left one match for international break out and hope there are not any Real Madrid player have get injury again.

Real Madrid are two points ahead of Barcelona, but they are not top of the table, as Girona is also two points ahead of them.
 At this stage, it is not worth saying that Real is significantly superior to Barcelona, because the teams are close and Barcelona can bypass Real in any round. But I agree that Real looks better on the field now, but as far as we are concerned, this is still not enough to translate this into results.

sometimes we say that we are superior, not only about the team position, but when someone says that Real Madrid is superior because in terms of the players they have, Real Madrid is far superior and also the talent of Madrid players is superior to Barcelon.
but I am not saying Barcelona is bad, its just that Barcelona only has players who were obtained from the transfer market for free, but Xavi as coach managed to bring Barcelona to good performance just with his players.

In this case, for me, both teams have their own advantages and if we talk about the current position, it still too early to say who the strongest.

But I think it is true that Real Madrid is superior at the moment and one of the games that I think has shown that very well was the second leg in the Copa del Rey last season when Barcelona won the first leg luckily with 1-0. Real Madrid overran them in the second leg and made clear that they are the better team if they play their best. Barcelona won La Liga, but this was the result of Real Madrid being sloppy in too many games in the league. But when they are head to head and both show their best, I think Real Madrid is at a 55:45 advantage, maybe a bit more.

You may not believe it, but the total value of Girona's squad, the team leading La Liga, is just over 160 million euros, which is equal to the amount of money Real Madrid spent to buy the duo Aurelien Tchouameni and Eduardo Camavinga. Girona is becoming a phenomenon in La Liga this season, surpassing Real Madrid and Barca to take the top spot. What an extraordinary thing. Why do they do such miracles? In my opinion, Girona's ability to win La Liga is still low. But their chance of reaching the top 4 means they will qualify for the Champions League next season, and the crazy scenario of them winning the championship could also happen.

Real Madrid and Barca's performance is still quite similar. On Barca's side, their poor performance is due to their recent injury to Lewandowski. They will fix this situation soon.

Agree, if Real Madrid is said to be superior. Because without a top 9 striker, they can still have consistent performance. In terms of play, Real Madrid can rely on Bellingham, who incidentally is not a striker, but he can be the best playmaker this season.
Real Madrid, if they get Mbappe in the January transfer window, will probably be unbeatable. And I think they can dominate La Liga and maybe the UCL events, especially in the hands of the truly genius Ancelotti, Real Madrid will be far superior.
It's just that currently Real Madrid is being hit by a storm of injuries, it was a bad situation for them.

It is truly great that Girona can once again lead the standings for La Liga, since the start of the season they have given extraordinary performances because every match has finished with win and only experienced one defeat or draw.
With the team finances not being too big, Girona is the only team that loses financially but can become strong team and even compete with big teams like Real Madrid or Barcelona.
But I agree that Girona still has a fairly low chance of becoming La Liga champions, in fact they are currently only thin point difference from Real Madrid with Girona 34 while Madrid has 32 points.
In the future, shifts in standings will definitely occur more dominantly and of course Real Madrid is unlikely to let Girona lead for longer.

If we talk about these two teams, they actually both have weaknesses due to injured players, but I still believe that Real Madrid will be superior and can stay above Barcelona.

Real Madrid was unlucky on the FIFA day and in the game between Colombia and Brazil, they got another injured player, 27 minutes after the start of the game, Vinicius Junior, the Brazilian player of Real Madrid couldn't continue the game against Colombia and this is bad news for Real Madrid because Vinicius Junior was recently in the good form and he is definitely an effective player for his team.

The injury suffered by Vinicius Junior adds to the long list of Real Madrid players who have been injured because previously there was Jude Bellingham, and the one who also suffered a new injury is reportedly their goalkeeper Kepa, and what is very unfortunate is that all of them are key players who have made Real Madrid perform well this season, if the player takes a long time to recover it will be very detrimental for Real Madrid but if on the contrary I think Real Madrid will be fine because their next three matches in Laliga and Champions League will only face mediocre teams Cadiz and Granada while in the champions league facing Napoli is not that important the result is because have confirmed that they have passed the group phase, there is even a chance of winning the group because Napoli if they can beat Real Madrid, are still 2 points behind and in the sixth match, Real Madrid will most likely be with their core players again and they will achieve victory.

That's bad news to hear vinisicus was suffering injury again after the international break but it's less serious compared with the previous injury. I just read the news said that if vini will able to recover from his current injury as soon as possible.
Real madrid is still having lots of great players on its squad no doubt that if ancellotti may be doing another rotation for the club soon. Im thinking about rodry will be filling vini's position while brahim or joselu will be playing as a right wing or attacker.

Let's see what line up will be composed by ancellotti soon. I hope vini will able to recover again as soon as possible. The club really needs him to face the tougher competitions.
Im thinking vini will able to comeback again next month. I hope his injury will able to be fully recovered.

After carrying out a medical examination, it was reported that Vinicius had suffered a rupture in the bicep femoral muscle plus the distal tendon in his left leg and he was confirmed to be out for two and a half months. Very bad news for the Real Madrid winger and it is certain that 2023 is over for Vinicius. I didn't expect the injury to be that serious and being out for that amount of time will definitely make it a little difficult for Real Madrid to maintain its consistency. International breaks always bring pain to all players and things like this are the most feared of losing key players when the competition in the standings is increasingly competitive with other teams.

I don't know how I came about a tweet saying Pep Guardiola has a close bond with the manager of Girona and how he educates him about tactics and positional plays. The knowledge and experience shared have been used to improve Girona. This is not a new thing have a squad with such valuation. It was similar situation with Leicester City, I'm not fazed with Girona's performance because I saw same happenings with Leicester City.

It's still a long way until the end of the season though, Girona if not focused would slip down from the top, if focused, they can achieve a draw from all the big boys and continue winning same clubs below top ten which they have a good stats against this season.

Surprisingly, Girona has been the best team in the Spanish La Liga this season even when many never expected their current performance. It's a shake for clubs like Real Madrid and Barcelona that a team that's filled with average players is currently leading the league table after 12 league games.
That being said, Real Madrid has been a better side in the league than their biggest rivals Barcelona and I don't think It's good to compare the two teams because one has been visibly better. Personally, I think Real Madrid are the favorites to win the Spanish La Liga title at the end of the season.

That's why international matches feel almost as intense as going to war between countries. It's nerve-wracking both ways, but that's our football – they've to perform duties on both the international and club stages. Unfortunately, Real Madrid's injury list just keeps getting longer. This time, Vinícius Jr will be out for at least two and a half months after getting a thigh injury against Colombia match. It's bad news, but Madrid has to keep going. Let's just hope that, no matter how tough it gets, Madrid will still manage to survive it.

If they are able to fix the situation when Lewandowski is back then what is the current situation of Real Madrid that you assume they’re performing poorly now? I think their problems are better known to them and are working on resolving it to take back the top spot of the table currently occupied by Girona.

Girona has taken everybody with a shock and with their current form now, they can have a long way to maintain that top spot until eventually the rightful owners of the position gets it. I think this is the first time that the club will be at the top spot of the La Liga table which is a remarkable one for them to be proud of for a long time to come.

Winning the La Liga title is not what is already ascertained for them now because we still have a lot of matches to be played ahead, much more than what had already being played already. The pressure will be very much on them that if they can’t withstand it for a long time, they will be removed from the top spot in the short possible time. If they can’t finish at the top spot which is very unlikely, they should at least finish at the top 4 of the table to have a qualification to the champions league by next season.

Yes, Girona has so far been able to perform extraordinary and of course their performance has really surprised many parties. But I'm not really sure that Girona will be able to compete at the top until the end of the season, but of course they have to work hard to at least be able to stay in the Champions League zone.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are two teams that always want to be the best in La Liga. Currently Ancelotti's troops are slightly superior to their rivals. Even though Madrid is the favorite, I am sure that competition with Barcelona will continue until the end of the season. Apart from that, I also give Atletico Madrid a higher assessment, Diego Simeone's troops should not be underestimated, they also have the opportunity to become serious contenders this season.

[arimamib]

But does this mean Casemiro will return to Real Madrid?

I don't think Real Madrid will take the player into their club again. They don't have a good history of using old players and pay them high salary. Some legendary players had to leave Bernabeu in tears like Raul Gonzalez, Iker Casillas and career of Casemiro in Bernabeu already ended two seasons ago. If he wants to continue his career in Europe, I guess he has reasons like want to play at highest level as his preparation for World Cup 2026 with Brazil. If he can join that tournament, it will be his last World Cup for his national team.

The rumor reveals another fact about terrible transfer strategy of Manchester United. What did they think to spend very expensive cost to buy an old player like Casemiro? They must be realistic to know old players like this can lose best performances after one or two seasons.

Real Madrid's history of letting go of older players and even selling top players at their peak age llike Ozil and Di Maria suggests that they is no chance Casemiro will be back to Real Madrid. Madrid's recruitment pattern indicates that Real Madrid prioritizes acquiring younger talent and maintaining a competitive edge in the short term.

Casemiro himself has enough reasons to stay at Manchester United. His desire to continue playing at the highest level and prepare for the 2026 World Cup with Brazil makes him needs to be a regular starting player. He gets this already at Manchester United which he has no guarantee that he will get it at another big clubs. This provides him a competitive environment and exposure for him to maintain his form and fitness ahead of the World Cup.

It's just that currently Real Madrid is being hit by a storm of injuries, it was a bad situation for them.

Yes, maybe right now Real Madrid can still rely on Jude Bellingham to maintain the balance of the team's performance, but currently Bellingham is suffering from an injury which means Real Madrid shouldn't just rely on one player because one day we don't know if the player they always rely on will experience something unexpected.
Carlo Ancletti must have other options so he can help Jude Bellingham to maintain team consistency, with several players experiencing injury problems at Real Madrid, I'm sure Carlo Ancletti is thinking about plans to recruit talented players in the upcoming transfer market and maybe Mbappe was not left out of Carlo Anclotti choice because Anclotti really needs a striker like Mbappe.
If Mbappe doesn't renew his contract, maybe Real Madrid will bring him to the club, but if Mbappe extends his contract at PSG, I think Real Madrid will still recruit him even though they have to spend a lot of money on this player.

Real Madrid's history of letting go of older players and even selling top players at their peak age llike Ozil and Di Maria suggests that they is no chance Casemiro will be back to Real Madrid. Madrid's recruitment pattern indicates that Real Madrid prioritizes acquiring younger talent and maintaining a competitive edge in the short term.

Casemiro himself has enough reasons to stay at Manchester United. His desire to continue playing at the highest level and prepare for the 2026 World Cup with Brazil makes him needs to be a regular starting player. He gets this already at Manchester United which he has no guarantee that he will get it at another big clubs. This provides him a competitive environment and exposure for him to maintain his form and fitness ahead of the World Cup.

Isn't a player like Modric a great example that this is not true? Ramos also left the club when he was 35 and Kroos will stay for a while. Benzema was also 35 when he left. Marcelo was 34. Nacho, Joselu, and so on... The list is long of players that were quite old and still played for Real Madrid.

I think the mix between acquiring young talent with very high potential and at the same time not neglecting a good level of experience is what Real Madrid really did better in the past than many other clubs. That is also what helped them win the Champions League titles because they benefitted a lot from the experience they had within the team and what many players of the team already went through.
