La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[snipie]

Finally LaLiga is back and I can watch Valencia playing today and hopefully they will take 3 vital points and move to 7th place overall with just 1 place beneath European places. They will play against Celta Vigo , a team who forgot how it feels to win as they only have 1 victory in 13 games and this season looks kinda over for them as I don't think they can avoid relegation to LaLiga2.

Valencia is expected to win especially when they have the support of their fans near them. In the other hand, as you said, Celta Vigo is no longer a threat for the other teams, their stats are bad but if you look closer, you will notice that there isn't a big difference between the two teams in terms of goals forwarded, the difference is in the goals received so if Celta Vigo could fix this issue, they can collect a point at least.
In the other matches, Sevilla and Sociedad match looks quite competitive and of course we are waiting if Barcelona or Real Madrid will drop points in their away matches.

Valencia had a better season this time and they maintained their performance intact to break into the top 10. Usually we are familiar with seeing Valencia always having difficulty at the bottom of the table, but this time they gave different results. Celta Vigo has experienced a very significant decline so far and they have to accept the fact that they are not as strong as last season. An exciting match for sure, especially since both teams both need points to survive in La Liga this season. But it doesn't look like there will be many goals scored and Valencia will probably only win narrowly against Celta Vigo. A score of 1-0 or 2-1 is usually synonymous with this kind of match.

It would be very risky if Barcelona could not win points in this fight because unconsciously other competitors  Atletico Madrid had the remaining 1st capital that could pursue Barcelona position.  Therefore it is a risk  that is risky for Xavi in the midst of some important players not to help on the field options to use young players.  Lewandowski must be able to be the main reference as long as he can play and score goals.  Rayo Vallecano isn't too bad they can still fight. The last Rayo is  indeed the top of the standings  Girona even able to hold the Madrid lottery.  So most likely Rayo Vallecano is also able to make Barcelona a little overwhelmed in this fight

Yes, that's right, Barcelona must target three points to continue to stick closely to the top of the standings. However, the record of the two meetings is clearly very unfavorable for the Blaugrana because in the last four meetings Xai's team had to be willing to swallow the bitter pill. So for this reason, Xavi must be able to decide on bad results by preparing the right strategy. But I'm sure Lewandowski and his friends are very ready for this match. Victory will belong to Barcelona!

In this match I saw that there seemed to be a change in the line-up that Xavi would play, although the accuracy cannot be confirmed. However, it seems that De Jong and Pedri will be included in the starting eleven for the Barcelona squad against Rayo. What's unique is that sometimes Rayo likes to make things difficult for Barcelona. In this match, Xavi played Ferran Torres as a starter rather than Felix. Maybe, if Xavi wants to save his squad's energy, so does Gundohan. which means, Xavi's focus is on the Champions League match against Porto.

Talking about Rayo, in their last two matches they didn't win. Draw against Madrid, lose to Girona. Let's just see how this match goes, because sometimes Rayo makes things difficult for Barcelona. Referring to the betting options, Barcelona is still the favorite even when the match is away. Barca with @1.69, while the home team with @4.80. Barcelona should be able to win in this match. because no matter what, Barcelona must reduce the difference in points from the teams above them. They must achieve 3 points, even though they have to work hard to dismantle the home team's defense. The @1.69 option isn't that bad, especially since it's an away game. I hope Lewandowski and his colleagues are able to show their best performance.

[topbitcoin]

Looking at h2h, Rayo is quite good when facing Barcelona, because from the last 5 matches they have played, the results are 1 win for Barcelona, 1 draw and 3 wins for Rayo.
But even like that, Barcelona is still Barcelona who will indeed be the favorite in this match. Rayo is likely to be troublesome especially with the loss of Gavi in the current Barcelona squad honestly this could hamper Barcelona's attacking power but I think their chances of being able to bring 3 points in this match will still be very large so regardless of previous statistics and h2h, I am not too hesitant with my bets now.

Current placed from Rayo Vallecano is not really bad settled on 10th standings position against Barcelona who on 3rd placed in La Liga standings, but in domestic league this season Rayo Vallecano not winning last three matches in a row and defeated by Girona before international break out. Have difference motivation against Barcelona exactly head to head Rayo dominance from Barcelona will make another thing for Vallecano get their first winning matches after failure more than last three matches before.

Barcelona have remaining four points behind Girona on the top position, actually they won't loss points again to make close keep on the top position for defending their La Liga tittle last season, in this match Barcelona have loss Gavi after ACL injury but potential will put Frankie de Jong in starting eleven after returning from injury.

But indeed in the last 5 matches and 3 draws obtained against Sevilla, Madrid and Sociedad this clearly provides a positive thing even though in week 12 they lost.
With the current situation it could be that Barcelona also get troublesome problems because after all, with the condition of Barcelona who still have problems in the final settlement and by losing several players, they must be disturbed.
It's going to be interesting for sure because I'm expecting more from Rayo as I'm expecting Ba to lose

[marcous]

It seems difficult for Barcelona to win against Vallecano. Moreover, the match will be played at Vallecano home ground. Even in the last five meetings, Barcelona has never won against Vallecano. In the match against Vallecano, Barcelona lost many important players due to injury. Therefore, it will be a tough job for Xavi to achieve victory against Vallecano. This match was very meaningful for Xavi because it was not just about getting 3 points so that Barcelona could continue to compete for championships, but Xavi wanted to break the chain of never winning against Vallecano.

That's just a statistic in history that only has a 5% precision, many other factors affect the outcome of the final game. So at the moment I still feel optimistic if Barcelona can win even though there are some injury problems.
It seems that Xavi wants 3 points to keep the points distance from Real Madrid and Girona. Although I admit Rayo can always make Barcelona difficult with a down defence by putting a lot of players.

The match will definitely be fierce, Rayo Vallecano will not let Barcelona take home the 3 points easily. With all the situations that Xavi's squad is currently facing, I think in the end they can still bring home a win to maintain their distance and create consistency. The good news is that De Jong, who has been absent for a long time due to injury, will be played by Xavi from the first minute, although on the other hand, at this time Xavi has to lose his agile boy Gavi.

In essence, both clubs wanted to mark a good start after yesterday international break, but it was difficult for Rayo who immediately faced a team like Barcelona. It's true that they are lucky because they will act as hosts, but I think betting on Barcelona winning will be very safe and comfortable.

They will play against Celta Vigo , a team who forgot how it feels to win as they only have 1 victory in 13 games and this season looks kinda over for them as I don't think they can avoid relegation to LaLiga2.

If we have to compare the performance statistics for this season, Valencia is the team that is expected to win; nevertheless, given the way Celta Vigo plays tactics, I think the match will probably result in a draw. The opposition will seldom score if their attack is not very sharp. I can't say that Valencia will have the chance to win like that because Celt Vigo and Valencia are currently categorized as average clubs with average attackers rather than as large teams.

Looking at h2h, Rayo is quite good when facing Barcelona, because from the last 5 matches they have played, the results are 1 win for Barcelona, 1 draw and 3 wins for Rayo.
But even like that, Barcelona is still Barcelona who will indeed be the favorite in this match.

While I agree with you that Rayo Vallencano is the favorite to win the upcoming match against Barcelona if we go head-to-head over five matches, I believe Barcelona has a better chance of winning given their current form. Based on their respective statistics, all teams now have a decent chance of winning the game. As a result, I am unable to determine which team is the clear favorite to win, so I will not be placing a wager on the game.

[Plaguedeath]

Challenge's with injury facing Real Madrid too much now, they have lost important players who have contributed to the goals scored in them last few games. Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo who have scored when they faced Braga and also Valencia are all absent.

Yeah, I think Valverde will replace Rodrygo position and they will be forced to let Brahim Diaz to play, the bad this is they don't have any substitute for both midfielder and striker. There's no player can play for full time in every match, so there's a big chance Real Madrid will lose even against a weak team.

I don't think it will be that easy for Cadiz to beat Real Madrid, which is already quite famous for Ancelotti mate's precise tactics and strategies. Because even though there are several player positions that have to be replaced by unusual players, Real Madrid will remain strong and will not be as weak as Cadiz, because Real Madrid must be able to catch up with Girona who is still the leader of La Liga until now so Real Madrid cannot be weak only because there are players who have been replaced in this match.

[HT] Rayo Vallecano 1 - 0 Barcelona

Rayo Vallecano managed to take a temporary lead in the match because of a goal scored by Unai Lopez. I don't know what Barcelona was thinking at the moment that they were 1 goal behind in the first half. Even though this is an important match for them with the aim of chasing Real Madrid and Girona who are currently above them.

If they fail here, it will provide a golden opportunity especially for Real Madrid to increase their distance from Barcelona considering that their opponents in the next match will be Cadiz who are currently at the bottom of the standings.

I don't know what Barcelona was thinking at the moment that they were 1 goal behind in the first half. Even though this is an important match for them with the aim of chasing Real Madrid and Girona who are currently above them.

To me this doesn't look like a temporary win as Rayo vallecano is one dramatic club in la liga, let's not forget how they frustrated Real Madrid in their home ground so they might possibly maintain the lead till the end of the match. In football any team can concede first so blaming Barcelona for conceding first or too early is not really necessary what matters is the outcome of the match at the end. Despite conceding first to Rayo I still see Barcelona playing a better game, they were just unlucky to have conceded first but they will perform better and possibly score in the second half.

[Velvet78]

Maybe there are still at least 45 more minutes in the game but it looks like this will really be a very tough challenge for Barcelona. I was expecting this to happen though. I mean their recent history against each other wasn't very good for Barcelona. After seeing how they resisted Real Madrid as well I hesitated to bet on Barcelona.

Now I'm comfortable with following the game because of that.    But who knows if Barcelona break the deadlock early in the second half things can change in the opposite direction.

[Blitzboy]

There is a Girona - Athletic Bilbao game as well in a few days. What do you think? Can Girona maintain their current winning streak which has reached 5 games already?

Honestly I feel like Girona can win this game too. Before anything else I would like to remind of the games in the previous season as well. Because Girona beat them twice. And now Girona are even much better condition in the La Liga. I don't see any reason for not to think this way. But the final score might not be a big one. I expect a win by one goal in short.

Indeed, Girona should be able to win, considering that so far they are in a good trend. And yes when the both teams met last season, Girona was able to win. But maybe this match will be difficult for Girona, Bilbao is not a weak team either. Especially, we have a long break and Ernesto Valverde may have planned many things for that match against Girona. So in my opinion this match is still difficult to predict, and the chance of a draw result is still open. But to be honest, right now I hope that match will end in a draw results, because I want to see tighter competition before January in standings.

Girona will win this game with plenty goals if their coach can make use of their potential players because, their system of playing  this season is different from last season which is the advantage they will use to beat Athletic Bilbao to remain in second position in the la Liga league table. Girona players are very smart in this season and is helping them to achieve victory from many games and, they stand among the teams that will win this trophy if they can continue with the excellent performance that made them to over take Barcelona and other teams in this la Liga league competition.

I don't think there will be draw 0:0 game because, there are many things that changed positively in Girona players that will make this game a surprise game to everybody because their players are well organized to display good results in this game.

Girona's improvement from previous season is remarkable. In addition to outperforming expectations, they now play with Real Madrid and Barcelona. They're in the La Liga title hunt because to their smart play and tactical prowess. I see them using their new strength against Athletic Bilbao. Bilbao is tough, but Girona is in great form. The future match? I think Girona will win, probably comfortably. Girona's form is unlike Bilbao's, which was a problem for bigger clubs. Against the huge guns, they've won. A close game? Possible, but Girona will come out swinging.

Finally LaLiga is back and I can watch Valencia playing today and hopefully they will take 3 vital points and move to 7th place overall with just 1 place beneath European places. They will play against Celta Vigo , a team who forgot how it feels to win as they only have 1 victory in 13 games and this season looks kinda over for them as I don't think they can avoid relegation to LaLiga2.

The advantage is on Valencia's side of course, be it in terms of form, consistency, and they even have the external advantage of being the home side. Celta Vigo are in a very bad state, they can only win 1 of the 13 matches they played, they lost 8 and the rest ended in a draw. Obviously this is an opportunity for Valencia to get back full points after the previous week they had to lose to Real Madrid with a landslide score at the time, 5-1.
Meanwhile, Celta Vigo will try to get at least 1 point from their away match.

Celta Vigo can only be relegated if the management have f the club fail to sack Rapheal Benitez after the loss tonight ( I'm sure it'll be a win for Valencia ) Celta Vigo is a club that has lost them last four La Liga games. Hoping is a bad thing and I don't think they can hope themselves into winning this game. Their general performance is poor and their coach needs to leave for a better attacking minded coach.

Yeah, I think Valverde will replace Rodrygo position and they will be forced to let Brahim Diaz to play, the bad this is they don't have any substitute for both midfielder and striker. There's no player can play for full time in every match, so there's a big chance Real Madrid will lose even against a weak team.

Valverde? The Uruguayan is no winger, he scored a couple of good goals but that don't mean he'll do so as a winger for Real Madrid. He should rather be deployed as a defensive midfielder since Camavinga and Tchouameni are both absent due to Injury.
I will even choose the mentioned Brahin Diaz, he could get jis chance alongside, Arda Guler. Cadiz like you said could end up winning, that I'll agree with.

Which one is on your side? From the response you made, it seems contradictory as you believe that Rayo Vallecano will maintain their lead until the end, but on the other hand you are also on the Barcelona side where you believe they will be able to turn things around in the second half. FYI, so far bookies still favor Barcelona to win, even though the odds are quite high (around @4.5).

The experience of Head to Head of Bilbao vs Girona is fairly equivalent from the two teams, but for this week's match Girona is statistically more favored to get a victory against Bilbao later.

So far, Girona players are still fairly complete even though Toni Villa is injured, and I think the chance of injury that will be experienced by Girona is very small, while other big teams have greater opportunities for players to experience injury because they follow the UCL which is fairly competitive and all teams Those who compete there will mobilize all its resources in order to get the perfect results that have the risk of many players who are exhausted and injured.

For this week's match I think Girona can still win the match against Bilbao, but I doubt it because the ball is round and anything can happen on the field that might not be like my expectations, for sure you are right that when Girona can win against Bilbao it becomes a big warning for the big team of La Liga.

The H2H between both teams are fairly even but on current form, Girona is a better team than Bilbao. Girona seems to be the favorites of this encounter, the Griona team have less amount of injured players and that’s a plus for the team going forward compared to some other Spanish counterparts, this is their opportunity to win a major trophy and i believe they would want to seize it.

This weekend I’ll be tipping Girona to come out top of this clash and steal all 3 points, Bilbao won’t be a threat to this current Girona side, cause most of their players have got lots of time to rest during the international break and would be fully ready to face Bilbao in this weeks challenge.

[X-ray]

And shortly after, the defending La Liga champions are going to face Rayo Vallecano at Vallecas Stadium in Madrid. Barcelona is third in the league table with 30 points from 13 matches. Barcelona lost 2-1 at Rayo Vallecano last time out. Rayo Vallecano's points last saw them lose 2-1 to table-toppers Girona. They are in 10th position with 18 points with four wins and six draws. Barcelona will be without Gavi, Sergi Roberto, Marc-Andre, ter Stegen. Barcelona can afford to take points, but despite their form, it won't be easy at Rayo Vallecano. I think Barcelona can salvage 3 points with a 2-1 win over Rayo Vallecano.

Barcelona can afford to take three points but it really needs a hard work from the players. Playing without the main player is kinda different compared to when the club was only using the secondary player to play. Bareclon might be facing difficulty to beat rayo. I think that rayo is going to use fully deefensive strategy like parking bus. This will also make barcelona's players feel so frustrated if they will not able to win the game. I bet on barcelona but im not sure if this club will able to win easily against rayo.
Even real madrid has been also facing difficulty to beat it. Barcelona will also face the same nuance. Rayo is still leading the game.

Meanwhile, Celta Vigo will try to get at least 1 point from their away match.

Although Celta Vigo have looked very bad so far this season but ya, it seems that in every season Celta Vigo at least experience results that are not much different like this too. Therefore, I think Celta Vigo still has a chance to be able to avoid the relegation zone along with this season. But ya, regarding the away match against Valencia this time, ofcourse there is no good chance for Celta Vigo in this match, because obviously Valencia will also take advantage of this situation to be able to win in this home match against Celta Vigo.

Barcelona has finally find the back of the net, with Lewandoski have a good finish with a header but he couldn't only to see Rayo defender putting his leg on the ball to make the goal an own goal. Assuming he didn't put his leg Lewandoski would have still score the goal. Barca player better in the second half than in the first half. If you have observed, Barca are always struggling to win their previous matches and they are always scoring on the last quarter of the match. It is a big challenge for Barca, if they can't secure all three points because there is Girona and Real Madrid ahead of them and who knows is Athletico will win their match tonight. It is Rayo 1 and Barca 1

[rendravolt]

An own goal saved Barcelona from defeat and Vallecano had to drop the full 3 points at home after playing out a 1-1 draw. Here it is quite clear that Barcelona really benefited from Lejeune's blunder because he failed to block the pass and instead went into his own goal. Actually Vallecano performed very well even though they often received attacks but they managed to repel them. Meanwhile, Barcelona, which really dominated the match, had difficulty scoring even one goal from normal attacks. However, this draw is not good for Barcelona because they will be increasingly behind Girona and Real Madrid.
