La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[wmaurik]

Well there are over 7 leagues games left to play and it is too early to say that Barcelona are out of the title race in the la Liga, because in football; nothing is impossible. The question should be after Barcelona win to advance to the champions league quarter finals, can they mount a late league challenge

If we talk about possibilities, it really doesn't need to be said now because there are still several matches that all teams have to play, but are you sure that Real Madrid will lose in a row in the next 7 or 8 matches this season? I'm not really sure about that because the quality of Barcelona's players this season is actually not that good and there are still many shortcomings that Xavi needs to fix. Winning in the Champions League when hosting a bad team like Napoli is a very normal thing in my opinion because I am not sure Barcelona can last long in the Champions League this season.

Barcelona clearly doesn't want their struggle to end here, they want to prove that their potential is still good to beat Napoli. As we know, Napoli is currently in an unstable condition in the league, so it provides a good opportunity for Barcelona. Whatever Barcelona does this time makes its fans very happy because it has given them confidence that Barcelona is still a strong team even though they are struggling. I think in La Liga I doubt that Barcelona could be in first place by only winning 3 matches if it wasn't accompanied by Madrid's defeat because Barcelona is already quite far behind.

Barcelona managed to win the second leg match against Napoli with a score of 3-1 and I think that is very normal and cannot be a benchmark so we cannot take this too seriously because Napoli is a team that is quite down this season so it looks easy for Barcelona.

Napoli players were not in good form. Napoli's defense in particular was shaky. Barcelona players have used this opportunity well. Xavi's match strategy was good. Barcelona attacked from the start of the match. Barcelona did not allow the Napoli players to create too many attacking opportunities. Although Napoli made several attacks, they could not mount a very strong attack. Moreover, Barcelona's defenders played well in this match. Cancelo also managed to score a goal.

Also, I really liked Raphinha's performance in this match. We have seen Raphinha playing in Right Forward position so far. But he played in the left forward position in this match. And performed quite well.

It must be said that Barcelona's performance has improved in the last few matches, but to be able to catch Real Madrid at the top of the standings, I think it is very difficult, although mathematically it is still possible, but it is impossible for Barcelona to continue to face Real Madrid, which currently has strong strength and will fall in several matches.

It is true that Barcelona's performance has improved. However, the performance of this team is still erratic. It is difficult for them to consistently perform well. Moreover, Xavi is likely to give full effort for the Champions League. It will not be possible for Barcelona to win the La Liga title. Barcelona team is 8 points behind Real Madrid.

Valencia has been experience big change this season because they can playing more consistent under new manager and currently Valencia has 40 points from 27 matches which mean they still have 1 postponed match so assuming Valencia can collect 3 points from that match then they will have 43 points maximum and Valencia recent records also very impressive because from 11 matches in Laliga Valencia only lost twice and they also can stole points from Barcelona and Real Madrid and even Valencia can beat tough team Bilbao so i don't think Valencia can be underestimate even they potentially can joined with Betis and Sociedad for Europa League spots

This weekend Valencia will playing against Villarreal and if we see based on meeting statistics indeed Villarreal is strong opponent for them but i think currently will be so different because Valencia has successfully to improved their performance moreover Villarreal performance also is not really good compared to last season so i think Valencia have a good chance to beat Villarreal and collect 3 points from this match and Hugo Duro has appears as the most dangerous player from Valencia because this season he has found his top performance again and Hugo Duro status currently as Valencia top scorer with 12 goals in Laliga

Valencia has indeed had positive changes in their squad. And I was previously unaware of the positive changes that had occurred at the Valencia club. Because all this time I thought that Valencia was just getting luckier this season. But after I saw Valencia able to hold Real Madrid to a draw I started to be interested in this team. Even at that time Valencia was able to score 2 goals in the first half against Real Madrid. But I started to have doubts about Valencia again when they struggled to beat Getafe last week. So for the match against Villareal, I think Valencia will also experience the same difficulties as when facing Getafe.

So for the Villareal vs Valencia match, I am sure that I will favor Villareal. Because in the last few weeks we can also see that Villareal has made improvements that are no less good than Valencia. Villareal has even managed to beat Real Betis and Real Sociedad. But if you look at the strength level based on standings, it is true that Valencia can be more reliable. Because Valencia currently has a much better ranking than Villareal. But I have a prediction that Villareal will improve at the end of this season.

Valencia, which is currently ranked 8th in Laliga, is certainly a good achievement and there has been progress because last season Valencia was ranked 16th and only had 42 points and in the current season Valencia is experiencing rapid progress and has achieved 40 points and of course there are still some left match Valencia will play around 11 matches and I also predict that next season Valencia will potentially continue to be better and will be able to compete with strong teams such as Madrid, Barcelona and others.

Yes, I, like you, don't pay much attention to Valencia's condition and performance, even though Valencia has made rapid progress in terms of performance and ranking in Laliga when compared to last season. Yes, when we played against Madrid, I was also starting to be surprised by the result of the match because Vinicius and his friends couldn't win the match and in the end the result was a draw with a score of 2-2.

Yes, Valencia's last match against Getafe certainly makes it difficult for us to conclude who will win in the next match against Villarreal because Villarreal's performance has improved recently and won in matches such as beating Betis and Real Sociedad, but in the match against Getafe the result was 1-1 draw. while Valencia in their last match managed to beat Getafe so I am sure that in the next match Hugo Duro and his friends will show their best performance and will win the match and I want to bet on Valencia winning.

I think Barcelona achieved a good success by eliminating Napoli. This year, they are in the race for second place in the league together with Girona. I don't know who will win this race, but I think what is more important for Barcelona than La Liga is to win the Champions League. They will be extra motivated for the Champions League and want to beat the other match. Real Madrid, on the other hand, will most likely finish the season as the leader without any surprise losses.

It takes Barcelona some seasons to participate in Champions League quarter final round again. It also helps Barcelona in finance and by playing in quarter finals, not yet mention they will win or lose and will go to semi finals or not, they will get $80M in this season with their so far adventure in Champions League.

In a financial crisis, this means a lot for Barcelona as they can use part of it to pay debt and can avoid star player bleeding to other big clubs in Europe. Success in Champions League this season will help them to tighten their internal connections between players and can be good foundation for their next season.

In La Liga, they can focus on the second position that is currently held by Girona. It will help them to gain a little bit more money for the league award too.

Barcelona managed to end their long wait after since 2020 they failed to reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League, victory over Napoli as well as proving that Barcelona still cannot be underestimated when playing in the Champions League, for now one first step for Barcelona to compete again in the race for the Champions League title even though we know the opponents they face later in the quarterfinals are strong teams.

While their chances in La Liga to compete with Madrid are over and the main focus for Barcelona apart from ending the season as far as possible in the Champions League is of course finishing above Girona or being second in the table is the main target for Xavi before he steps down at the end of the season, I think for the La Liga championship trophy this season has been in Madrid's hands and it is difficult for Barcelona and Girona to seize because indeed Their position that has been far behind, besides that next season will be fantastic for Girona who did appear quite surprising this season, Girona who have performed brilliantly throughout this season have the opportunity to appear in the Champions League next season for the first time.

Winning in the Champions League when hosting a bad team like Napoli is a very normal thing in my opinion because I am not sure Barcelona can last long in the Champions League this season.

Yes, that possibility will always be there, but we are only realistic in this case, because it will also be very difficult to tackle Real Madrid and beat them in one match, especially since it requires more than 2 losing matches that Real Madrid must accept, and that means Barcelona must sweeping all matches with a win. I also won't be in a rush to say that Real Madrid will become champions, but with all the possibilities that exist, their percentage of becoming champions this season has reached more than 80% in my opinion, so with opportunities like that, it's not surprising that there are several people who has locked the title for Real Madrid.
Actually there are 10 more matches left in La Liga, we'll see if our predictions will be correct or something will happen that will surprise us in La Liga this season.

Winning in the Champions League when hosting a bad team like Napoli is a very normal thing in my opinion because I am not sure Barcelona can last long in the Champions League this season.

Assuming that the remaining 10 matches for the three teams, both Girona and Barcelona, can sweep cleanly/win continuously, then Girona's final points are 92 (+30) and Barcelona 91 (+30). Therefore, Real Madrid only needs to win a minimum of the remaining eight matches to ensure they are league champions this season with 93 points (69+24).

It feels very difficult for Barcelona and Girona to get the La Liga trophy this season because of course with the performance and squad that Real Madrid currently has, it feels like winning 8 more is easy for them. Moreover, if you look at the 10 remaining matches for Real Madrid, it can be said that it is not that difficult, of these 10 matches, only Barcelona can be said to be a strong team.

[rendravolt]

Atletico Madrid know very well that a defeat could cost them their position and the last spot for UEFA Champions League next season since they have only two goals difference between them and Athletic Bilbao and the latter will face Alaves which is weaker than them.
Real Madrid and Girona have easy games too comparing to Barcelona - Atletico Madrid one so both these teams need a victory to secure its position and advance eventually. Odds are right now in favour of Atletico Madrid partially because they are playing home.

So the problem is, if they already know, why do they continue to maintain this bad trend? isn't that the same as committing suicide? I mean, with uncertain results they have a greater chance of being eliminated from the top 4 of the standings. Just look at Bilbao getting closer and there is no reason for Atletico to run away anytime soon. There's not much Atletico can do and they should have won against Cadiz last week instead of losing.

Atletico must really take advantage of the opportunities that exist by turning them into 3 points in the match because they are running out of time. If not, then they will only reap regret and they definitely don't want that to happen. Real Madrid is very comfortable at the top, while Girona and Barcelona will likely still be fighting to finish in 2nd place in the standings and yes, Atletico will have to fight alone if they don't want Bilbao to have more freedom in the future.

Barcelona has a good chance of finishing in the runner-up position in La Liga, they can definitely overtake Girona position in the remaining matches ahead, while Real Madrid is very close to winning the trophy at the end of the season. Barcelona success in eliminating Napoli is a sign that Xavi squad should be taken into account by any team in the Champions League. If Barcelona is not troubled by a storm of player injuries, they have a chance to show a different performance in the Champions League and go further in there.

It must be said that Barcelona's performance has improved in the last few matches, but to be able to catch Real Madrid at the top of the standings, I think it is very difficult, although mathematically it is still possible, but it is impossible for Barcelona to continue to face Real Madrid, which currently has strong strength and will fall in several matches.

Mathematically, many things are possible, but is there any point in speculating about it? Here are the quotes for the title:

Real Madrid 1.04

Barcelona Fc 17.00

In my opinion, it’s surprising that bookmakers are still willing to pay anyone who bets on Real Madrid. If I were a high roller, I probably wouldn’t refuse 4% easy profit (+ bonuses for wagering). But for ordinary bettors, freezing money for about 2 months for the sake of 4% makes no sense.

Barcelona is back in the quarterfinals after a tough few seasons of early exits. It's an emotional moment for the team, considering the challenges they've faced. While Barcelona may not be the top contender for the trophy, this progress surely boosts their morale and could aid in overcoming financial struggles. Making it to the last 4 wouldn't be surprising, given their recent form. It's uncertain what the future holds, but Barcelona has the potential for a successful season in both the Champions League and La Liga. Regardless, achieving this would be a significant milestone in their journey to bounce back stronger next season.

Scoring the first goal thanks to 20-year-old Fermin Lopez, Barcelona used this advantage very well. After Lewandowski's last goal, Napoli's hopes were already over. It was good for Barcelona to pass the round, but who they will match with in the next round will be important for the UCL. Barcelona may rotate in the league for those 2 matches.

At least the victory against Napoli proves that Barcelona still has the enthusiasm to play and is capable of fighting a team as strong as Napoli. Fortunately, Robert Lewandowski managed to score the final goal in the 83rd minute which meant that Napoli could no longer chase victory because the points were too far away. In La Liga, Barcelona still has the potential to take first place by getting three wins in the upcoming matches.

It seems like the players are getting even more motivated than before since xavi has announced his decision to step down as a coach in the future. Things are also going to be even more difficult for real madrid with the comeback of barcelona in la liga. We are having less match everyweek but it doesn mean if barcelona can win the trophy easily.
There will be many osbtacles to coom soon and hope barcleona will not decline caused by too many pressures received by the club. A beautiful win against napoli hast also contributed a lot to strengthen the mantlity from the club. im feeling so good with the result achieved by barceona against napoli.

Barcelona's strong opponent has been waiting for Barcelona soon. Atletico Madrid will prevent Barcelona from getting another point. Xavi needs to prepare this since the match against Atletico Madrid can be considered an important match for Barcelona.
Xavi will not make many changes to its lineup. The current lineup is good enough to beat Atletico Madrid. Xavi needs to give Youngstar more regular time to play.

Barcelona had many potential youngstars, but due to the lack of gameplay xavi had no choice other than to move to another club. I have seen how well some Barcelonanians perform. Xavi needs to stay for another season in Barcelona.
He has been successful to training young talents to perform as well as pre-professional footballers.

I think it will be very difficult because Barcelona is far behind Real Madrid in La LIga and in the Champions League we also have to look realistically that Barcelona's performance is not much better than other top teams.
Barcelona's progress to the quarter-finals had a bit of an element of luck because they did not face strong opponents in the round of 16.
Indeed, if you look overall since the start of the season, Barcelona's performance has improved slightly, but I don't think that's enough for them to be able to compete fiercely for the title on the Champions League stage.

[Oluwa-btc]

If Girona can return to their impressive performance like the first half of the season, there is a possibility that they can go through the remaining 10 matches without defeat. The match against Barcelona and ATM is indeed the toughest, but Girona was enough to force both of them to a draw. Since the start of the campaign, Girona has erased many concerns, including when they beat Barcelona and ATM in the first half of the season.

Barcelona has the potential to finish in the runnerup position, because Xavi fleet is used to facing heavy pressure every season, unlike Girona, which has only experienced it this season. ATM also cannot be ignored, even though he is far behind in moving up the rankings. In essence, Girona has become a team to be reckoned with, all La Liga contestants now respect them.

On the other hand, Girona priority is of course to finish as runnerup, considering that it is already difficult to overtake Madrid, who currently leads the standings. However, finishing in 3rd or 4th place is also not a problem, because they can get tickets to appear in the Champions League next season. Expectations for Girona this season are quite high, everyone is curious about where they finish at the end of the season.

Getting back that form would come with lots of effort and individual performance from each and every player within the squad. They was my best option to win the league as they went ahead to sit top of the table for a good time. Thanks to them as they gave Real Madrid a good challenge and made sure that they made the league week in and out very thrilling and interesting. Not even Barcelona and Atletico Madrid could put them form to a halt. It's always be Real Madrid during the both half's in this season Competition.

I do believe that if not for the challenges Barcelona and Xavi Hernandez has faced during the early stages of the season, then, they should have been there on the top battling this league campaign with Real Madrid. I can't support them finishing as second runners up, I'd want to see it happening, they should try to earn it if possible.

We'd be welcoming Girona into the Champions League? Or that rule of bearing same owners with Manchester City in the Champions League Competition still affects them?

[piebeyb]

It feels very difficult for Barcelona and Girona to get the La Liga trophy this season because of course with the performance and squad that Real Madrid currently has, it feels like winning 8 more is easy for them. Moreover, if you look at the 10 remaining matches for Real Madrid, it can be said that it is not that difficult, of these 10 matches, only Barcelona can be said to be a strong team.

A difference of 7 to 8 points is indeed difficult for Barcelona and Girona to catch up, especially if Madrid consistently plays on a winning path, perhaps there will be no chance for both of them and Madrid will have to give up winning the Laliga title this season, at least Barcelona and Girona will finish as the top four in Laliga this season. At least this season, both of them have played optimally and shown their best game to date, even though there are still several matches remaining. Expecting Madrid to experience several defeats in the next few matches is also very difficult.

Barcelona will still have difficulty catching them, let alone Girona, Madrid has the opportunity to win the Laliga title this season as well as the UCL this season, although perhaps the UCL is a tough job but they have that opportunity with a good main squad at the moment which makes them the best club. Ancelotti has of course targeted the title this season and it seems he is quite serious about this hunt by directing his team to play consistently and stay on the winning track and avoid many unnecessary defeats that will cause them to lose points.

regarding Barcelona losing the La Liga title because it has been taken over  Real Madrid, it doesn't seem like a big problem compared to Girona having to take the La Liga title because the reputation of the popular team will be slightly destroyed if the promoted team succeeds in winning the La Liga title.
and for Barcelona in the UCL, this team is not lucky but indeed Barcelona experience is superior because Napoli is not an easy opponent because Napoli troops have almost the same performance as Barcelona.
Xavi currently doesn't need to focus too much on winning the La Liga title because it is already very impossible and all Barcelona has to do is continue to get tickets to qualify for the UCL semi finals.

[hahay]

Well there are over 7 leagues games left to play and it is too early to say that Barcelona are out of the title race in the la Liga, because in football; nothing is impossible. The question should be after Barcelona win to advance to the champions league quarter finals, can they mount a late league challenge

If we talk about possibilities, it really doesn't need to be said now because there are still several matches that all teams have to play, but are you sure that Real Madrid will lose in a row in the next 7 or 8 matches this season? I'm not really sure about that because the quality of Barcelona's players this season is actually not that good and there are still many shortcomings that Xavi needs to fix. Winning in the Champions League when hosting a bad team like Napoli is a very normal thing in my opinion because I am not sure Barcelona can last long in the Champions League this season.

It doesn't matter if you still believe Barcelona can compete with Real Madrid for the title but for me, I'm fully convinced and would say that Real Madrid are already assured of the La Liga trophy this season. It doesn't matter if Barcelona manage to improve their performance because after all, an 8-point gap is not a close point gap so it will obviously be difficult for Barcelona to catch Real Madrid or maybe, very unlikely. Because after all, Real Madrid is basically a team with above-average quality and thus, Real Madrid will certainly be able to consistently get good results in the remaining matches remaining until the end of the season. Saying or hoping Barcelona wins the title this season, I think it's just like an empty hope because it's impossible to happen.

[Docnaster]

It feels very difficult for Barcelona and Girona to get the La Liga trophy this season because of course with the performance and squad that Real Madrid currently has, it feels like winning 8 more is easy for them.

Ancelotti has of course targeted the title this season and it seems he is quite serious about this hunt by directing his team to play consistently and stay on the winning track and avoid many unnecessary defeats that will cause them to lose points.

For Girona, I think it's still a good win if they finish this season in the top three of the Spanish La Liga even when they showed signs of a team that's very ready fight for the title from the start of the season till this very moment. The club manager Michel is without doubt trying to make history with the club by defiling all odds and lift the league title at the end of thr season he already knows that Real Madrid who's a bigger club with better number of quality players is already ahead of them and would definitely fight till the end to protect their lead at the top of the Spanish league standings.

Barcelona in the other hand is one of the big traditional clubs in Spain but considering their performance this season, I don't think they're a match to league leaders but that'll not still stop them from fighting for the title till the end of the season

Real Madrid who is currently leading the league table is without doubt the most consistent Spanish team since the start of the season and I don't expect them to back off at this time of the season when they know what's already at stake. So in my own opinion, I think the Spanish La Liga title is surely going to be won by Real Madrid at the end the season.

[el kaka22]

What I wonder is not Real getting the league title, which I am sure they will, but what will happen with Xavi and Barcelona. Lets be honest, they are at quarter finals now, and they could finish second, what is the point of letting Xavi go? This dude got them a title in la liga and a quarter finals at UCL within two seasons, that's bad?

I do not get it, if I was Barcelona management then I would do everything in my power to keep him. Not only that, because success is one thing, but also they have absolutely no money at all, and Xavi managed to make so many young stars come out and play this well, he took this team from the brink of bankruptcy and they could sell 5 young players today and pay ALL their debt. How can they let someone like Xavi go?
