La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Razmirraz]

Snip.

Yes, it was a good goal because it proved that Joao Felix was still reliable, because Joao Felix also still had a good performance. But even so, I personally only bet with the under goal option in this match because ya, in my predictions this match can go tough. Until in the end it really happened because after all, the match only ended with a narrow score of 1-0 because at least, both teams also had quite good defenses. But at the same time, they also sometimes get deadlocked in scoring goals and that also happened in this match and I am quite satisfied with the win I got in this match.

Yes, both teams often found themselves at a dead end in scoring goals, attacks built by both teams ended in vain because the ball did not go towards the goal or was cleared by the goalkeeper. Barcelona was lucky to get 1 goal through former Atletico player, Felix playing well even against a team that had full rights to him. Barcelona deserved three points because their game was very good, almost no one made a mistake. Inaki Pena, who rarely gets playing time, also performed well under the crossbar. He made several saves which enabled Barcelona to maintain a 1-0 position until the match was over.

[hahay]

Today there will be a match that brings together teams that are in the lower zone, the match is Celta Vigo v Cadiz. They are 3 points apart at the moment and Celta Vigo are in the relegation zone with 8 points, while Cadiz are just above Celta Vigo with 11 points. But yeah, I personally not really sure which team will win in this match because after all, although Celta Vigo is playing at home, but the fact is that so far Celta Vigo does not have a winning result at home. Likewise about Cadiz, because so far Cadiz has no winning results at all also in away matches. But even so, it looks like I will still try my luck by betting under goals in this match.

This celebration looks quite similar to the one Messi did.

He's been having a great time at Barcelona that's for sure, even though it's just a temporary stay as things stand. Some might argue he shouldn't celebrate against his former club, but considering the tough year he had at Atletico Madrid, he truly deserves it. I had a feeling he would celebrate if he scored against Atletico. So, he shouldn't care what people say. btw! If Atletico doesn't want him in their team anymore, maybe Barça should sign him on loan again!

Everyone at Atletico Madrid doesn't want to see Joao Felix celebrating their goal because he is one of their best. He is still an Atletico Madrid player, but he is an unwanted star player and may not be in Diego Simeone's long-term plans. I would not be surprised if Joao Felix wants to stay longer at Barcelona if possible, but Barcelona's current financial condition makes it too difficult to complete Felix's transfer if his value does not drop.

Barcelona could bring in Joao Felix for free if both parties agree to terminate the contract, but Atletico Madrid certainly don't want to lose a lot of money because Felix has a high selling value so far. Barcelona might consider Joao Felix next season if Atletico Madrid agree to a price of less than $40m, but that is too low considering his quality.

Both Cadiz and Celta Vigo are trying to stay away from the relegation zone. Performance of both teams is very poor. And both teams are likely to be in the relegation zone. And so this match is very important for both. Such matches are usually very competitive. It is impossible to predict which team will win this match. However, in the last 5 matches between these two teams, Cadiz won two matches and drew two matches. In the last match Cadiz team won against Celta Vigo. Therefore, even considering the statistics, none of the teams can be considered as favourites.

The Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid match will be the best match this week, of course I have been waiting for it for a long time. Barcelona must be able to win the match without reason because with that Barcelona can catch up on the points gap with Girona and Real Madrid. Barcelona must keep their distance from the top of the standings if they don't want to fall too far behind, but I believe Atletico Madrid is a difficult opponent.

So far Barcelona has won 3 of their last 6 matches against Atletico Madrid in La Liga in the last 3 seasons. Atletico Madrid won 2 of 6 matches and 1 of them ended in a draw. Barcelona has a good record in its last 3 matches against Atletico Madrid in La Liga and this is good capital to hope to maintain. After all, Barcelona is playing at home and I think the probability is pretty good to win.

   

First of all, Barcelona are in a good form at the moment despite injury worries and have managed to win two games since the resumption of the laliga and the champions league beating FC Porto 2-1 at the camp Nou, this will go a long way to boost their morale and also set a good precedent for them as they play against arch rivals Athletico Madrid, and playing at home is an added advantage to FC Barcelona, so I think it's gonna be a win for them though I don't expect it to be an easy game for Barca because Athletico Madrid are also in a great form at the moment both in the champions league and in the laliga, so I think it's gonna be another classsico.

Barcelona was able to win against Atletico Madrid by a score of 1–0, I honestly did not think that Barcelona would be able to win the match against Atletico Madrid. I thought Barcelona was most probably going to draw in this match. Considering the current performance of Barcelona, not being so good, I thought, Barcelona might find it very difficult to actually get 3 points from this match. But Barcelona was able to get 3 points and they were also able to keep a clean sheet. I was not absolutely amazed to see the result, not overly surprised as well. But I was surprised a little. Probably if Barcelona can continue performing well, they will still have a chance to win the title and defend it successfully.

Xavi Hernandez yesterday proved that his team is capable of beating any team in the Spanish La Liga no matter how good they seem to be. Barcelona needed Joao Felix first half goal to grab all three points in the game and move within just four points behind first place Real Madrid and second placed Girona. With the recent performances of Barcelona, they've made people who had earlier written them off for the contention for who wins the title will now have a rethink because the reigning Spanish champions have shown they're still capable of retaining the league title this season.

Diego Simeone without doubt will be dissatisfied with the result of the game as his team is now seven points league leaders Real Madrid. Joao Felix goal celebration is causing a lot issues in the Spanish media as many believes that his celebration sends a message of disrespect to his parent club but the Portuguese isn't even concerned as he said after the match that he deliberately celebrated against Atletico Madrid yesterday.

Barcelona should just try and make Joao Felix a permanent player in the next transfer window because he is a very good player and he will help Barcelona very well in the feature am very impressed with him in thier last match against is formal club Athletico Madrid, I didn't think Barcelona would defeat Athletico Madrid so easily this season because I believe Athletico Madrid are in good shape and will try their best to win or draw but unfortunately they lose, Barcelona l As far as I can tell Joao Felix is doing well in Barcelona and I believe Athletico Madrid will not sell him to Barcelona when his loan expires because they will like to bring him back to the squad because of is performances with Barça, and if Barcelona want to buy Joao Felix he will not be an easy process because I don't believe they have the money to do so.

[BIT-BENDER]

It won't be easy for Barcelona to make Joao Felix deal permanent because Atletico Madrid would demand transfer fee for him, remember Atletico Madrid bought his for a fee in the excess of 1000million dollars.
I think if his contract has expired then it would have been easy for Barcelona to make the deal a permanent one.
Barcelona and Atletico Madrid does not have a bad relationship in terms of trading players but I believe Atletico Madrid would love to make profit from this deal.

Joao Felix only has 1 season on his loan deal with Barcelona, ​​but Joao Felix seems unhappy with his coach's treatment in recent seasons. Joao Felix has been overlooked in the Atletico Madrid squad and he has changed two clubs in the last 2 seasons. It was clear that it had made him feel sad and what Felix said at the start of his deal with Barcelona was a feeling that could not be hidden.

I think Barcelona will have to work as hard to make Joao Felix permanent as possible, but there will probably be players at a disadvantage. Ansu Fati and several academy players may be sold to get the budget if Barcelona wants to make Felix permanent, but that is only an option because Barcelona can get Felix without having to buy him from Atletico Madrid, I mean loan.

[Chilwell]

in the following week match it will be big match even though Girona can actually be said to be small team but I still have confidence that Barcelona will win against Girona with the existing players Barcelona will be able to win like Atletico Madrid defeated with narrow score and this must be done Barcelona if not Girona wants to be too far behind in points and it looks like Girona will also be tough this time after reaching top of standings and being displaced by Madrid Girona will try hard to hold a draw or win match but for me its too early Girona can beat big teams and in fact they can also be beaten Real madrid that time and this time Barcelona will have a chance to beat Girona.

Judging by the team statistics, BTTS looks like an inevitability. I hope that Girona has reached its limit of failures in the game with Real. It would be good if Girona wins and breaks away from Barcelona by 4 points. And I think that this will be quite fair: Barcelona mostly wins games very hard and with a minimal advantage, maybe it’s time for random to play against them?

Yeah Barcelona hardly scored, the find it very difficult to score, their win against Atletico Madrid was a great one, I was very happy that the goal come from João Félix and many people wonder why he celebrated against is club, this achievement means a lot to him because few are saying he lack consistency to succeed in Atletico Madrid and this goal rely for him, and also they all see how better he is to the club, which many are advising for is permanent stay in the club because of what he can deliver as a talented player.
Barcelona next match against Girona will be interesting one, Girona are in a good form now so Barcelona have a lot to do, checking from their previous matches both the teams had great performance but Girona last five matches is fair than that of Barcelona.

[ZAINmalik75]

The match is quite difficult, but Barcelona seems more favored to win. Xav's injury should no longer be a problem because De Jong and Felix are ready to give their best performance. Apart from that, Xavi must take advantage of the Felix Moment. He must be able to awaken Felix's enthusiasm to provide proof that Simeone was wrong to throw him away. So it could be an extraordinary explosion for Felix in playing later. Apart from that, Barcelona will play at Camp Nou, they should have high self-confidence. I feel confident they can get 3 points.

That's George bro. I really enjoyed him tonight, he plays such a beautiful and vibrant football against his former club. He showed up his aptitude to Digeo Semione, saying that you are wrong with his decision to didn't get me into the part of his club. But anyway it was super fun with Atlatico Madrid because Barcelona midfielders made them so rigid they could not stop them, especially Frenki de Jong, who gave his best performance. Pedri and Gundogun also put in their best performances in the winning match.
But Joe Filix gives the authenticity of his signing to Barcelona by making his execution during those times when the club needs it, like the Atlatico match. Because the club need 3 points to lead behind Atlatico Madrid and get 3rd place in the league standings. And one thing more, I will tell you guys that before the match Joao Felix got sick and didn't train with the squad but hid played well from the whole X11 and gaive the victory against his rival Atlatico Madrid and taking the lead with 3 point to secure 3rd place in thee La Liga competition.

[redsun114]

Girona and Real Madrid are 4 points ahead of Barcelona. Therefore, even if Barça wins the Girona match, they will not be leaders in the league. Real Madrid is still at the top of the table and I think they will want Girona to win against Barça more because their real rivals are seen as Barça. Girona, on the other hand, is still showing Leicester championship performance and they seem to continue without losses this year.

Girona are in a current form that is threatening to both Real Madrid and Barcelona this season, the points gap between the three teams are not that much of a significance though it's an advantage but from what I perceive Barcelona will cling a victory over Girona when they meet as the team is now reawakening from it dull performance Seeing how they played against ATM last night.

Like I have recently stated in one comment previously, Girona might not maintain the momentum and strength of form they are now by February next year what they can possibly do is to fight to hold a spot on the table to qualify them for the UCL next season. The owners of the title we all know.

I honestly do not think that they are a problem for neither Real nor Barcelona. Many do think that they are going to finish near the top, but I think both Real and Barca will pass them this season. I think even ATM may pass them too. A fourth place would be awesome for Girona, but because many people think that they may end up higher, when they do eventually finish at fourth place people will not think that's a good think, and that's a damn shame.

I think people should cherish that a team like Girona may end up being fourth, do not be upset if they drop there, be happy that they are there. If they do somehow end up being anything higher than fourth ,that would be a miracle for them, I am 5100 sure they won't finish winners, but if they end up being even more than fourth, or even fourth, that's awesome.

Barcelona fans deserve to be happy with the result of the match against Atletico Madrid. I didn't expect Joao Felix to celebrate like that when he scored a goal, but he did what he thought was good for his morale. Barcelona as a whole played well from the first half, but Barcelona almost lost maximum points at the end of the match if Inaki Pena Sotorres didn't make a save. He made 3 important saves and that has helped Barcelona secure 3 points at home.

Joao Felix was also the best player in that high-octane match yesterday and I think he was really happy with what he did. Pedri, Gundogan and De Jong played well, but it was a shame that Barcelona wasted too many goal opportunities throughout the match.

[Roseline492]

CELTA Vigo and Cadiz are two average team and playing against each other today, I don't expect much from them but just an average performance from two average teams. CELTA Vigo has the home advantage and it's an opportunity for them to get pass the relegation as they are playing with a team that is a point above them.

With the look of things Cadiz has an upper chance of wining Celta Vigo because if you check there wining history this season Cadiz has win more games than Celta Vigo and meanwhile Celta Vigo just came back from relegation this season because of there poor performance and with there current state now there is every possibility of them going back to relegation again this season because they are almost at the button of the league table but however Cadiz seem to have escape from going to the relegation this season because they have cross the line and also if they win there today's match it will be an added advantage for them but however let's watch how the outcome will be.

I think Joao Felix celebrated that way because he wants to prove a point. Before the match I read in the news where he was saying he more happy at Barcelona than he was ever at Athletic Madrid. It seems that there were internal issues which we don't know, because it's not always common to see a player celebrate a goal against it's former club.

Joao Felix was also the best player in that high-octane match yesterday and I think he was really happy with what he did. Pedri, Gundogan and De Jong played well, but it was a shame that Barcelona wasted too many goal opportunities throughout the match.

I really enjoyed the performance of Joao Felix yesterday. He has really been playing very good this season as a Barcelona. Felix is really a good player but I don't really know why he hasn't been performing this good for the past few years.

[HajiBagi]

Bad news has come to Real Madrid again, because they will lose one of their key players for the rest of the year and that is Dani Carvajal. It was reported that Dani Carvajal suffered an injury to his soleus muscle and is likely to be absent for up to 3 to 4 weeks. This month of December seems to be over for Dani Carvajal and he will return to strengthen Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup early next year.

Currently the only remaining RB option is Lucas Vasquez and I don't think that's a bad option for Real Madrid, at least they still have Dani Carvajal as a back-up to cover the end of this year. Well, I hope Dani Carvajal recovers quickly and right now the team really needs his role to strengthen the defense line, especially now that Real Madrid is at the top of the standings.

I don't think that will affect real Madrid performance, although I know that cavajal is the best player that can play right back very well but I believe real Madrid have another player who will take the position which is Lucas vaquez,  Lucas is also good in that position and I believe he can help, real Madrid are having many problems this season b6 having injury player's but if we still look at the team will nothing change, there are some player's that can help the team performance very, Rodrigo, Bellingham, Valverde and Toni kroos are still their and I believe that this players are capable of moving real Madrid to a good position before the injury playe's will be back in January.

[AakZaki]

I remember that when Barcelona and Real Madrid dominated it was boring, but I'm very happy because I'm a Real Madrid fan. Today is different Girona was able to give a surprise until week 15. Let's see until the end of the season if they are able to stabilize. If it can, it's a big surprise.

Others I heard Real Madrid made a final offer for Mbaape. Although it looks unofficial because FIFA prohibits the offer of players a maximum of 6 months before the contract is completed. It seems that January will be the last offer Madrid will submit

Injury happens to every club in Spain, we understand how it works and some clubs are already acquainted with it. Real Madrid are the best team in La Liga, Barcelona are not up to the expectations of the club this season, interms of everything including their stats and performances. Real Madrid will survive and continue to stay competitive this season as long as they have Carlo Ancelotti as headcaoch and the presence of outstanding players, everything is suited competitive for the club. Jude Bellingham, Fede Valverde are the only midfielders that can improve a game for Los Blancos.

[AakZaki]

I don't think he treated Atletico Madrid and Barcelona unfair but perhaps he was not matched with tactics of Diego Simeone and Atletico Madrid. It seems he finds a club with tactics that can maximize his skills and it's all.

~snip~

Felix was unbelievably wrong if Simeone threw him away. I think Simeone has a personal problem, not just Felix's decline. Today's game has provided evidence that the level of quality of players can also come from who the coach is. Xavi gave evidence, his ingenuity to see Felix's potential has given maximum results this time. I saw Felix was quite emotional after making the goal. He confidently celebrated the goal, which is unusual for a player to go up against his own club while on loan.

Despite being impressive this season I think Girona should focus on earning enough points to earn them a place in Europe next season and not allow the distractions of title derail them, though dreaming big wouldn't be a bad idea but I still maintain that a place in Europe(the champions league) is what's best for them at moment. Playing against Barcelona is gonna be a big challenge for them considering Barcelona's recent form but I think they equal to the task because they have alot of players from different positions that can match barca's players,  so it will be huge for Girona if they can at least get a point out this match.

The goal of winning the title won`t really derail them, if wining the title as been their drive for their excellent form this season which though i don`t think it was at first,  they may just continue playing well and if they can`t get the trophy at least they can get to top 4 which will be a wonderful feat for them because everything start from the mind and they seeing themselves as title contenders will make them do more.
