La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[shield132]

Amongst goalscorers in the game are Ferran Torres and Lamine Yamal, who are both players for Barcelona. Khivicha Kvaratskhelia may not be inna good team that supports him but that has never put a stop with the way he bangs in goals for Georgia. He's score twice against Scotland and now a game against Spain. He should be on target when they return against Atalanta.

Kvaratskhelia doesn't bangs in goals for Georgia. If you check Georgia on flashscore, you'll see that our team performs terribly against good teams and recently we only managed to win against Thailand and Cyprus, lost against Spain and Norway but had draw with Scotland.

Gavi is an effective player for Barcelona and Xavi was surely counting on this player for the rest of this season. I think Barcelona is even right to start blaming Luis de la Fuente for it because the game against Georgia was not an important game for them to let Gavi play in this match.
Regardless of that, Barcelona can have 30 days to hire another player to take Gavi's place in the team. They just need to prove Gavi is out for four months or more which is not hard and there won't be any financial issues for Barcelona about hiring the new player.

There are many articles written on local websites that say that Barcelona management is super angry about Gavi's incident. Maybe no one was expecting such a terrible accident. To be honest, I didn't have time to watch the match but I wanted to watch it, I only saw highlights today and I don't understand how he got injured, there was no clash according to what I saw and injury happened accidentally when he was receiving the ball. It's okay if he misses a season, I pray his career won't end because he is only 19 years old and is very talented. Such a talent mustn't be buried because of injury.

After Ter Stegen, now it was Gavi's turn to suffer an injury and it appeared he was suffering from pain in the match which made him have to leave the field early. Maybe this is the worst international break ever considering that so many players are injured and quite a few of these players are key players at each club. It is reported that Gavi suffered a serious knee injury and it will definitely take a long time to recover. Xavi must be able to rotate his players in the upcoming match which is getting closer and it is possible that he will give Fermin Lopez full opportunity to fill the void left by Gavi.

Very bad, Gavi is a talented young player but yes I heard him injury was very serious, which required him to be absent for a long time. Although I think Xavi seems to have other options because in the last match he didn't use Gavi services, but losing players due to injury is clearly bad for them, especially also Gavi is a key player for Xavi. Every international break there are always injuries, but yes this international break is worst, previously we heard injury player Camavinga Ter Stegen Vini etc.

This is a difficult time for Barcelona, both for the players and the manager. Gavi is an important player of the team, and his presence is well recognised and appreciated. His injury appears to be severe, and he could be out for the rest of the season. These are difficult times for both Barcelona and Real Madrid, as Real Madrid is also dealing with injuries as a result of the international break. Plan B must be implemented by these two teams in order to reclaim the competition. This is also an excellent opportunity for challenging teams to maintain their position in the league and compete for a higher position by using the lack of their prominent players as an advantage for themselves.

Indeed a very difficult time not only for Barcelona and Real Madrid but also so many other football clubs in Europe at large as they would have to cope without most of their key players as a result of injuries picked up during the international break. Considering the fact that most of these players are key players for their clubs only means the coaches of these teams affected have to find a possible replacement immediately to fill in the gap to avoid panic, but the problem here is if this player coming in to replace the injured ones, would they be able to live up to expectations.

Barcelona often experiences difficult things like this, and what's worse is that last season, Barcelona had to sell some of its assets to get money to be able to pay salaries to its players who had very high salaries. I'm sure Barcelona will still survive and try to attack when there is the right time, because the reduction in Barcelona's core players has reduced their playing performance.

These are difficult times for both Barcelona and Real Madrid, as Real Madrid is also dealing with injuries as a result of the international break.

When these players complain about these things, fans, and FAs say they're paid to play so they should play. They'll even point to how much they're paid. Even if a player is paid a billion a week, his body will still break down when it can't go on anymore.

The games are too much, there's not enough time for these players to rest. FIFA and other regulatory bodies just keep adding more competitions and changing the current competitions to include more games.
It doesn't matter how much these players earn, they're still humans.

I this goes on for a long time, we'll begin to see that players can't remain in top form for a long time due to injuries. Gavi might not be the same when he comes back from injury around August next year. That's about 10 months without football. We saw how Fati suffered, Pedri too, and now Gavi.
Vinicius has been struggling with injuries and has not gotten an opportunity to heal properly. It's killing the players and therefore killing the game.

My principal doubt is, if Girona after this international break is gonna still being this good, or they are gonna start to fall behind, maybe they can last until the winter break, and become the winter champions  i remember the alst team becoming winter champion asides of the big threes was Real Sociedad a lot of time ago.

I think some people would have the same doubts as you, including myself. Not to underestimate them, but from our experience in La Liga, that teams that can surprise at the beginning of the season they will not be able to maintain until the end of the season, and that always happens, and maybe we can see from the past few seasons that there are always teams that can provide a surprise but at the end of the season it is still the 3 teams that are in the top 3, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. This may also be felt by other teams, one of which is Girona who are now at the top of the table.

In the previous season they also made a surprise if I not wrong they could be in the top fourt, but in the middle of the season they couldn't be consistent. Also Girona which are never won the title of La Liga, more strengthens our doubts. Although their achievement in making goals is higher than other teams so far this season, but conceding of their goals it could be another consideration that they may not will be able to maintain their consistency.

Actually for the conditions at the start of the season it's quite normal because some situations are bound to happen but now Girona really provide a good situation where they can continue to be consistent at the beginning even almost until halfway through the season now which makes this a difference.
Now, Girona definitely want something more for their target and at the moment it is quite feasible that they are categorised as one of the dark horses that could definitely be a slot filler for the remaining 1 position because for positions 1-3 I think it will still belong to the 3 popular La Liga clubs (Barcelona, Madrid and Atletico) the rest for the last remaining slot then they can still compete with several other dark horse clubs but on the other hand my hope is that they continue to be consistent and give their best so that their status as a dark horse this season turns into a title challenger even though it might only be a moment (this season only).

Gavi has finished his season, I mean he won't be available until the end of the season because of the injury he suffered. Unfortunately he ended the season too soon and the serious injury he picked up may mean he is out of form when he returns. Obviously it is a huge loss for Barcelona, ​​Spain and the player, but injuries are something that cannot be completely avoided in this physical game.

Xavi needs to get another player who can occupy Gavi's position in the Barcelona squad. Fermin Lopez is the most likely and he will get more chances to prove his worth. Fatigue due to the large number of matches scheduled makes several players vulnerable to injury, but this problem does not only affect Barcelona but many other teams also suffer from it including Real Madrid.

The ACL injury that Gavi got is not just an ordinary injury, it is a very serious injury, currently Barcelona is fighting to be in the top 3 and in the UCL they are fighting to be able to win all the matches that will occur. Barcelona management was reportedly very angry with this incident, they said that dropping Gavi as a Strater was a stupid decision, hopefully, with the sophistication of medical treatment today, Gavi can recover from his injuries quickly.

The club shall angry to the his national club. The same incident has been also happened to the vini as well. Even though vini's injury was not as serious as gavi but that's enough to make him out for months. The international football was making the player got injured.
It sounds very bad and i think that if this is national club's risk. That's why some players were used injuries as a way to avoid being called by their national clubs. It's caused by they put their clubs much more important rather than their national club.

When players got injury and out for months. The club will be so confusing to get the replacement of him. This is happening so many times. Sometimes, the player needs also to make an excuses to avoid being called by its national club.
It doesn't mean we don't put respect to the our nation but since our club is also need our skill and that's it. There are some players were injured. The only problem is ter stegen was also injured.

[BigBos]

This is very bad news for Xavi, his players have been in the treatment room one after another this season. If Gavi has to be sidelined until the end of the season then there is no other choice for Barcelona management other than recruiting new players in the transfer market next January, or re-trusting La Masia academy players to be included in the first team. Because we know that Barcelona is experiencing a financial crisis, or the way it is usually done with loan scenarios, I don't know exactly whether they still have this quota.

This is not only bad news for Xavi but indeed for Gavi, Barcelona and of course the Spanish national team will also feel the same impact because after all Gavi is a good asset for the future and he must be well guarded but with an ACL injury like the current one then this will be a loss because we know how good the players are when they get an ACL injury and have to rest for a long time then indeed they have to get used to it from the beginning again to make their performance back. I think we can see the case of Bale who did not even find his rhythm again and only became a bench filler or indeed Chiesa at Juventus who until now has not found his performance rhythm again after a long ACL absence.

[rendravolt]

The two teams promoted this season will open their matches this week after the international break ends. Bringing together hosts Alaves who will host their guests Granada and this will be a fairly balanced match according to their respective levels. Currently Alaves is in 15th position with 12 points and Granada looks much worse by being in the relegation zone temporarily and only collecting 7 points. If we look at the previous meeting the two teams only played a draw and that too at home to Alaves. So, even though there will be another draw, I hope there will be a win for one of the teams, especially as both of them are also targeting full points to improve their current position.

Both clubs are in the same situation, and perhaps Alaves can be said to be better than Granada in this regard. But better is not a guarantee for Alaves to win this match, because on Granada's own side, surely they see this as their opportunity to also win points considering their opponents are also not as strong as Real Madrid and Barcelona millennia. In terms of opportunities Alaves are superior and they will also play this match with home status. But I personally can't predict who will win, and the possibility of both can share points.

Sharing points is indeed the closest final situation for the two teams and I also agree with you. Maybe the factor of both being at the same level means the match will be quite balanced. However, sometimes in matches that are quite fierce and where both are competing with each other to win, there are times when the match becomes so heated that the referee issues many yellow cards to the players. The most detrimental thing is of course if one of the players gets a red card and the other team can make good use of it to win.

As per official statement by barcelona here

“Tests carried out on Monday morning on the first team player Gavi have shown that he has a complete tear of the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee and an associated injury to the lateral meniscus. The player will have surgery in the coming days after which a new medical update will be released. Gavi was injured on international duty for Spain in the final game of the team's European Championship qualifying group against Georgia. The Barca midfielder was forced off after just 26 minutes of the encounter.”

Barcelona was not giving a club how long needed by him to recover from his injury but the club said that if he is likely going out for months. Probably till the end of season (my prediction). It sounds bad for gavi but not for barcelona caused by there are also some players are starting to recover from their injured. Gavi will be missing so many matches. Probably he will comeback next season to play in the club again. this is a bad news for gavi. Unexpected injury that happened to him.

It is not a good news for Gavi and Barcelona and hopefully he will recover well from the injury and will return as strong as he used to be. I really hope that Gavi will use his time for recovery to think of his playing style. Many times, he played too dangerously for himself and if he wants his career won't be shortened by his dangerous playing style, he must change it. A smart player must know how to protect his body to avoid unnecessary physical clashes with opponent players that potentially cause serious injuries which can terminate his career immediately.

With this type of injury, if Gavi has to go through a medical surgery, he will need many months to come back and this season will be nearly ended for him.

The predator have become the prey, how does it feels sustained an injury when a full team depend on you, that means he failed his team and his die-hard fans because they won't see him in actions for a long time. I would blame Gavi for such dreadful blunders; we all know how dangerous and aggressive he can be on the pitch; his playing style is fulltime tackles and very rough; Gavi has also sent a few players to the hospital, and I believe it is now his turn to be the victim. Gavi sobbed as the medical team led him off the field. It's heartbreaking to see such an amazing talent become an injured player, especially if it's a long-term injury that would keep him out for 6-7 months out.

Barcelona often experiences difficult things like this, and what's worse is that last season, Barcelona had to sell some of its assets to get money to be able to pay salaries to its players who had very high salaries. I'm sure Barcelona will still survive and try to attack when there is the right time, because the reduction in Barcelona's core players has reduced their playing performance.

Last season they didn't get much income to increase finances and this season is an opportunity Barcelona has to make more money by winning more matches, UCL is one of the leagues that can provide bigger amounts of money.
When this season Barcelona is able to achieve more UCL wins and can also win the La Liga title then they will not be like last season, even next season when the transfer window opens before the season starts there will be more budget to bring in several players.

The money spent on football team actually depends on how the team develops in each league, even winning the championship can bring in more money.

It is as if a mysterious force is working to ensure Girona continues its leadership. Many players were injured in Real Madrid and Barcelona. They continue to get injured in national matches. This is bad for them. Girona now has to win every match to continue its leadership. Barça and Real may suffer surprise defeats.

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

Gavi's injury is trending and I see a lot of sports media reporting about it. I know it is a big loss for Gavi and Barcelona, ​​but Barcelona should not be affected by the injury of one of its important midfielders this season. Barcelona will have an equally good line up with Gavi or without him as long as De Jong, Pedri and Gundogan are fine, but if these three players are absent then I believe Barcelona are in trouble.

De Jong reportedly will return soon and will be available for the match against Rayo Vallecano. I'm happy with the news, but I hope Xavi doesn't insist on playing De Jong if he hasn't fully recovered and got a game. Pedri, Ilkay Gundogan and Fermin Lopez can be played as midfielders, but I think Xavi will call up several other midfielders from Barcelona B to cover the lack of players.

Maybe it will affect his football career a little because Gavi had to be sidelined for so long when he got his current injury. For Barcelona this will have a bit of an impact because we can see how when he doesn't play, De Jong and Pedri will be mainstay players for Xavi going forward and they are lucky enough to have another creative midfielder in Gundogan. If not, it is possible that Xavi's squad will have quite a difficult time when they want to make some changes amidst the busy match schedule faced by Barcelona.

Entering De Jong as a starter will provide a much longer chance of injury because if he can play against Rayo Vallecano he will not be completely fit. Xavi must try playing another midfielder first and De Jong can play in the second half as a precaution because Barcelona has a busy schedule next month. Fermin Lopez might be much better than taking a player from Barcelona B because it will be much easier for Xavi to implement the strategy he wants.

[Oneandpure]

Barcelona have good news after Frankie De Jong reported back at training center and already for upcoming match against Rayo Vallecano, its not really bad choose for Barcelona after losing Gavi with ACL injured and have been over for his appearance in this season. Actually Frankie de Jong will be good replacement for Gavi position but I don't sure with Xavi Hernandez will push De Jong as regular position regarding he still on the recovery from injury.

Barcelona have planning on one month later winter transfer window opening for signing new midfielder, indeed Frankie de Jong back from injury is looks not enough regarding with Barcelona still play on three competition from La Liga, Copa del Rey and UEFA Champion League. They must have back up on midfielder position due with many busy schedule match exactly after second half season have to focus on Champion League and  domestic league.

It is as if a mysterious force is working to ensure Girona continues its leadership. Many players were injured in Real Madrid and Barcelona. They continue to get injured in national matches. This is bad for them. Girona now has to win every match to continue its leadership. Barça and Real may suffer surprise defeats.

Taking advantage of the current bad situation of the Real Madrid and Barcelona teams, Girona can top the La Liga standings, but apart from that, we cannot underestimate Girona in strength and consistency because so far what they have done is not a coincidence, in fact this is all inseparable from The strong chemistry between the players and their increasing self-confidence is quite good this season.

From what Girona has done in the past, it is very possible for them to continue this positive thing until the end of the season and if Real Madrid and Barcelona don't recover immediately then what surprises will happen at the end of the season.

If injuries do not plague the big teams, there may be troublesome times for Real Madrid and Barcelona. Apart from this, Girona also has a wonderful harmony. I don't know if Girona will make a surprise that will leave its mark on this year. I do not believe that their success is a coincidence because they are currently leaders.

Girona may be this one team that is in for a surprise this season. Winning the title is tough of course, needless to say if they are competing with Real Madrid, Barcelona and maybe Atletico Madrid, but Girona is on top of things at the moment. Their winning streak is remarkable, they have now two home games coming up, which is the perfect preparation for their game away against Barcelona.

I would go so far as to say if they can win both of their next two home games and then win the game against Barcelona in Barcelona, I believe that they are a potential title winner. Yes it is still a long way to go, but if they get a perfect 9 points out of 9 in the next three games, Girona has the potential.

[klidex]

This is a difficult time for Barcelona, both for the players and the manager. Gavi is an important player of the team, and his presence is well recognised and appreciated. His injury appears to be severe, and he could be out for the rest of the season. These are difficult times for both Barcelona and Real Madrid, as Real Madrid is also dealing with injuries as a result of the international break. Plan B must be implemented by these two teams in order to reclaim the competition. This is also an excellent opportunity for challenging teams to maintain their position in the league and compete for a higher position by using the lack of their prominent players as an advantage for themselves.

as I said before, this will be an advantage for Girona because they are already in first place. They must be very happy because the biggest competitors in La Liga are both going through difficult times, but even though they are facing difficult times, Barcelona and Real Madrid are not teams that give up easily. Just regarding Real Madrid their coach Anclotti will definitely try to buy new players in the open winter transfer market to help improve the team's performance, regarding Barcelona I'm not really sure whether Barcelona will buy players with their current financial condition I think Xavi will continue to use players existing but by improving player performance so that it does not experience a decline due to the problems that continue to come to this club.

It seems to me that it is too early to say that Girona can win La Liga, precisely because their rivals are Real Madrid and Barcelona. These teams have much greater capabilities, a deeper bench and much greater financial resources. I know that we all remember the example of Leicester in the Premier League, when everyone followed them, but it seems to me that this happens very rarely and if Girona cannot find proper funding and strengthen the team in the transfer window, then this goal will be difficult to achieve for them.

I think it's too early for this dream, but their 11 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat in 13 matches shows how great they are. They continue to emerge as a big surprise this year. The harmony between the footballers is great. I hope they can make a big surprise like Leicester, because such big changes in football give people great pleasure.
