La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

I agree with you. If you look at the statistics in the previous few seasons, Barcelona was able to stay in the top 3 for several seasons and that shows that they are still the same Barcelona and are one of the big teams in La Liga. But what differentiates them from previous seasons is that they slumped to 4th and 5th place this season. I think that's something that rarely happens to Barcelona. And coupled with the financial crisis experienced by the team, some people think that Barcelona is in trouble. But if you look at their current position I am sure they will get second place in La Liga. And with great young players in their team, I think Barcelona will return to being one of Europe's strongest teams next season.

I am very impressed with Barcelona struggle to get out of their downturn this season, they were knocked out of the top four positions due to poor performances which resulted in them losing a lot of points. However, Barcelona was able to show its identity as a big team in La Liga, now they have managed to re-enter the UCL Zone by occupying second place. The decline in performance of Atletico and Girona provides an advantage for Barcelona, although it is a bit difficult for Barcelona to reach the first position now occupied by Real Madrid, they can try to secure the runner up position until the end of the season.

The Barcelona players don't complain much and enjoy the club's condition even though the finances are not getting better, but the players remain focused on giving their best performance. So there are no problems for Barcelona this season, maintaining the Runner up position is enough to stay on the right track. But next season, if it is without Xavi, I am worried that his performance will decline. New coaches always have difficulty getting along with the players, especially since Barcelona is a club that stands on one leg, without stable finances but the coach needs to entrust it all to the players. The advantages that Xavi has make this club survive quite well. Even without winning a trophy, in the UCL they can still progress and just need to get rid of PSG.

So many people who understand Barca current situation and the main reason the players are still very comfortable with Barca situation is simply because of Xavi as a coach who always provides great motivation and self-confidence, encouraging the players' mentality to be very strong.
Of course, if Xavi leaves Barcelona later, there will definitely be a lot of changes that will occur.
All Barca players currently have a very close relationship with this reliable coach and all players believe that the strategy used by Xavi can always produce excellent results in every match and is even able to fight until the last 8 rounds in the Champions League.

For this season, Barcelona will try to catch up even though it is very difficult because they are already far behind Real Madrid who are at the top of the standings, but with their quality which is now getting better I think they will try as hard as possible because mathematically they still have a chance to do that. .
And realistically Barcelona only has a bigger chance in the UCL so now they are also shifting their focus there to give their best performance, now Barcelona is in the quarter-finals so their journey is not long, even though it is difficult.

Indeed, mathematically Barcelona still has that chance, but if no team succeeds in stopping Real Madrid until the end of the season then everything will be in vain. Apart from that, Real Madrid doesn't just need one defeat but at least four defeats if Barcelona wants to overtake them at the top of the standings. With that, it would be very impossible for Barcelona, but I have little faith that sometimes miracles do happen.

Well, maybe it's true that the only title they can win this season is the Champions League, but they again encounter problems when other strong teams are in this round and things will be difficult for them again. If they manage to beat PSG in the next champions league they will face a much stronger team and with their readiness completely out of control at the moment, I doubt they can go any further.

The decline in performance of Atletico and Girona provides an advantage for Barcelona, although it is a bit difficult for Barcelona to reach the first position now occupied by Real Madrid, they can try to secure the runner up position until the end of the season.

I also think Barcelona has performed very well in the last few matches they have played, this is the result of the hard work of the team trying to recover from its nightmare at that time. This season, it is impossible for Barcelona to compete with Real Madrid who are at the top of the standings, because Barcelona's points tally is 8 points different from Real Madrid's. However, I quite applaud the struggle of Barcelona, which at that time was ranked 6th in the standings, with its hard work it has now moved to second place in the standings. This is certainly a matter of pride for all Barcelona supporters, perhaps not only that, Xavi will also be very happy to see his squad's performance return to normal as expected. Hopefully next season his performance and consistency will still be maintained like this, so he can compete with Real Madrid.

[Furious 7]

This could indeed be a fairly wise decision made by Xavi when talking about his future career, it's just that this is not very good for Barcelona because it could be that by leaving Xavi, Barcelona's condition will get worse when coached by people who are not too appropriate.

At the beginning of Xavi wanting to leave was the feeling that he could not lift Barcelona's condition from the downturn and actually brought them into a performance that was not very good but indeed until now slowly Xavi has actually brought Barcelona back to a positive situation and even they are in second place in the current standings and it would be a pity if he left because it could actually backfire on Barcelona for letting Xavi just leave after the good results given in these 2 seasons.

On the one hand when looking at Xavi condition which is sometimes blamed by fans, it is indeed very reasonable if Xavi leaves because after all, with his performance and coaching methods it seems that he will have no difficulty in developing his coaching power at other clubs because there will certainly be many clubs who want to get his services but on the other hand, when Xavi great love for Barcelona, the situation could change and Xavi could still stay at Camp Nou for next season, although i don't really like this possibility because it will definitely make Xavi blamed again when next season does not go according to plan but all decisions are ultimately in Xavis hands .

Barcelona opportunity is still open, but waiting for Real Madrid to lose points in the next four matches is impossible. After losing to Atletico Madrid in the first half of the season so far, no team has been able to beat Real Madrid, Barcelona must do it themselves in the upcoming El Clasico match to reduce the point difference. Finishing in second place in the La Liga standings, and fighting to reach the semi-finals by beating PSG is Barcelona main target now, while Barcelona chances of winning the Champions League trophy also seem very low.

Of course, if Xavi leaves Barcelona later, there will definitely be a lot of changes that will occur.
All Barca players currently have a very close relationship with this reliable coach and all players believe that the strategy used by Xavi can always produce excellent results in every match and is even able to fight until the last 8 rounds in the Champions League.

Barca board led by Joan Laporta will do everything to keep Xavi Hernandez because of his current performance. The wins over Napoli and Atletico Madrid were the game-changers. The Spanish international wanted to leave Barca at the end of the season but if they give him more powers to make sporting decisions and guarantee spending some funds on more players, he might consider staying. But the club will have to balance its spending so that it would not go beyond the  Financial Fair Play (FFP).

The 44-year-old tactician has always had a good relationship with his players. He has been able to manage top players and there has been no report of any form of conflict or disagreement. He is also an inspiration to young players and allows them to develop their talents. I was not surprised when some players turned down higher pay from other clubs because they wanted to play under Xavi.

If for example, Real Madrid gets a defeat like that then, do you believe at the same time Barcelona is able to maintain consistency with good results in each match, I personally doubt it. So yes, it can be assumed as a miracle if for example Barcelona managed to overtake Real Madrid because afterall, I am sure even though their pointsgap is still fairly possible to be closer. But yes, the reality will still be difficult to overtake Real Madrid at the top of the standings, because ofcourse Real Madrid is also still very capable of maintaining its top position until the season ends. At least, it doesn't matter if Barcelona fail to get the trophy this season, after all, Barcelona will also still get a Champion League ticket next season and that way, then Barcelona can improve its quality next season.

[el kaka22]

I still can't believe that Xavi will leave after this season. I mean it just makes no sense at all, I get that Girona had a great season, and I get that Real will become the champions but that doesn't really mean anything at the moment, not to me at least.

I feel like it is quite important to just focus on what we can do, which means that it is not going to be that simple if we can make it work. Realize that Xavi had so much success last season with his first year, if given enough time this dude could make Barcelona do so many wonderful things. I think instead of letting him go, they should sign him for at least five more season to show trust in the manager. Let all the doubts writtle away and they can do a lot better in the end.

[Ruttoshi]

Yes, it looks like Barcelona will have the potential to be firmly in second place in Laliga until the end of this season. and Atletico Madrid, recently their performance has not been stable, and neither has Girona. and Barcelona against Atletico Madrid with a score of 0-3 will certainly make Barcelona fans believe that Barcelona will be superior and be ranked runner-up. until the end of the season and on week to 30 we will see Barcelona against Las Palmas. I think Barcelona will easily be able to beat Las Palmas, but if Barcelona draws or loses it will certainly open up space for Girona so of course Xavi has to be alert even though his opponent at that time is Las Palmas.

Yes, the financial problems that Barcelona has been experiencing for a long time certainly haven't made Barcelona lose its performance because Barcelona is good at shopping for players and Barcelona always gets the right players.

That's what I'm worried about and hope Barcelona can perform better next season, even though for example Xavi isn't the one coaching Barcelona.

I really agree with you, regarding Barcelona will remain in second place in the LaLiga standings. Looking from my perspective, Barcelona seems reluctant to compete for the Laliga Champion title, instead Barcelona is focusing on the Europa League and pampering players and the financial sector which currently has problems.  must be done by Barcelona Management in the coming season so that Barcelona's finances are not hampered by buying players with limited money, so there is no problem if Barcelona has to be satisfied with being in second place in Laliga because that is the right step taken by Barcelona and management, if forced  then it is very likely that Barcelona will go bankrupt with their limited money to buy players.

For this season, Barcelona will try to catch up even though it is very difficult because they are already far behind Real Madrid who are at the top of the standings, but with their quality which is now getting better I think they will try as hard as possible because mathematically they still have a chance to do that. .
And realistically Barcelona only has a bigger chance in the UCL so now they are also shifting their focus there to give their best performance, now Barcelona is in the quarter-finals so their journey is not long, even though it is difficult.

No matter how hard Barcelona tries, it will be impossible for Barcelona to catch up, even though they don't have any UCL match. Perhaps, I think they should know that the second position is still open for Girona, because they are not in any European competition, which will make them stay more focus on Laliga.

Real Madrid have won the league this season, and there is no doubt about that, because the more they play, the more they will be adding more points to their points. Nothing can change it, this is their season.

[nurilham]

Barcelona opportunity is still open, but waiting for Real Madrid to lose points in the next four matches is impossible. After losing to Atletico Madrid in the first half of the season so far, no team has been able to beat Real Madrid, Barcelona must do it themselves in the upcoming El Clasico match to reduce the point difference. Finishing in second place in the La Liga standings, and fighting to reach the semi-finals by beating PSG is Barcelona main target now, while Barcelona chances of winning the Champions League trophy also seem very low.

It is not impossible that Real Madrid can lose points in the next 4 matches. It won't be easy for Real Madrid to secure 3 points in each match. They will play against Athletic Club, Mallorca, Barcelona, and Real Sociedad. All of the teams are quite strong, even Athletic Club and Mallorca are the finalist of Copa Del Rey this season. Sure, these are not average teams, they won't reach the final if they are weak teams. On the other hand, Barcelona and Real Sociedad are 2 top teams in La Liga, it will be never easy to get full points against them. So, basically the next 4 matches are tough matches for Real Madrid.

The point gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid is 8 points. With 9 remaining matches, in theory Barcelona still has the chance to overtake Real Madrid. However, Real Madrid must realize it, they will try all out to keep winning and getting full points in each match. As long as they won't lose focus and there is no many injured players, it is very unlikely to see Real Madrid wasting many points. So, I assume Real Madrid will keep leading the La Liga standings until the end of the season although Barcelona can beat Real Madrid in the upcoming El Clasico.

We don't need to doubt Xavi's devotion to Barcelona because it seems that Barcelona has always been a club that he will continue to be proud of and that is evident from his dedication from being a player to now being a coach but on the other hand we also cannot force Xavi's will because even though this is a club he is always proud of but when the lack of appreciation given to Xavi in the end it will actually give disappointment to Xavi himself so that rather than continuing to force himself by being in an environment that is not too comfortable for him, it is better for him to leave and look for a new club so that he can get more appreciation unlike in Barcelona.
This is a tough decision but still this must be done because he also has to be realistic that he himself will not be able to take Barcelona in a better direction amid financial conditions that cannot be resolved and it is also not his capacity because in the end management must make Barcelona better first.

[Ryu_Ar1]

Thats right because at the end of the day this is nothing new for Madrid as they've always done it although in recent seasons it seems like they're looking to shed their Los Galacticos moniker by trying to find other options where they'll look for players with good potential who can be projected for the long term, although sometimes the price is not cheap.

At the moment by looking at their spending last season which seemed only a small part of what they spent from the finances they had because only Jude they brought in with a nominal value of more than 100 million but it is not impossible in the new season they will immediately make a breakthrough where several players can be directly brought in with a fairly fantastic nominal.

When it comes to player transfers, Perez is skilled enough to do it and he can get any player they want. All top players definitely want to be able to strengthen Madrid, therefore it is very difficult for any player to refuse the offer made to them by Madrid. By joining Madrid, you can get closer to a number of trophies at once, meaning that the bargaining value of Ancelotti fleet is really taken into account in all the competitions they participate in.

Regarding the budget, Madrid financial strength is quite stable and they are definitely able to recruit new players and build an ideal squad. However, sometimes, quite a few of Madrid efforts to build a new Los Galaticos have failed miserably, as was the case when management recruited Hazard from Chelsea. On the other hand, their main target in the transfer window is Mbappe, it looks like his arrival will soon be a bright spot.

Meanwhile, Madrid seems to be hunting for other potential players in the right-back position, to ensure the transition runs well. We know that it was previously reported that Los Blancos were looking for a cover player for Carvajal, and it can be said that Madrid will indeed recruit several players at once in the next transfer window.

Because it will indeed be a pride in itself when a player is in a Madrid uniform with financial strength and all the luxuries including all forms of appreciation given in the end so that the value of being a Madrid player is also quite high for a player so it is not easy to refuse something like this, it's just that all the luxuries also depend on performance because after all, when you are in Madrid it means that every player must be prepared with all the pressure, especially Madrid sometimes indiscriminately when removing players no matter how great when they do not fit the criteria, therefore it is important for players to also know that being in Madrid is not easy.

For the problem of players, especially from the defense sector, it seems that Madrid will be looking for new options again, apart from Davies, who is projected as a future left-back, it is also very necessary to find a right-back option.
Current players such as Carvajal or Vasquez are still very capable but the longer the age will not lie so by looking at Madrid's scheme of looking for options for young players it seems that for this position they will also do the same.

Barcelona is currently in 2nd place, 2 points ahead of Girona. At least Barcelona will remain in their ranking after La Liga is rolled back, the teams they will be competing against are Las Palmas and Cadiz. After that, Barcelona will visit Real Madrid's home ground. If Xavi can maintain the consistency of his team's squad, Barcelona will certainly be firmly in its position in 2nd place. However, if I refer to some information, several Barcelona players are doubtful about appearing in the Las Palmas match. I can't conclude it with certainty, because I haven't gotten the validity information that is my reference.

The match against Las Palmas may be easier for Barcelona than the match against Cadiz. Barcelona play at home against Las Palmas, while they have to travel to the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla just days after their Champions League quarter-final first leg against PSG. The match against Cadiz is still a bit difficult to predict considering the players' fatigue due to the tight schedule, but Barcelona may be the favorite.

In the next two matches, Barcelona will probably still maintain its form with a win, but maybe not in the El Clasico match. Real Madrid must be better than Barcelona and I hope Ancelotti can really prove that at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium. If Real Madrid wins this match, then I think Madrid can guarantee the title.

I can't conclude it with certainty, because I haven't gotten the validity information that is my reference.

As for Girona, the performance of Michel's team began to decline. they played inconsistently, even Artem Dovbyk couldn't score a goal in several of his matches with Girona. Well, Girona still have quite tough matches that they have to go through in the remainder of this competition. Girona will visit Atletico Madrid's home ground after playing against Betis. Apart from that, Girona has a match to host Barcelona. Well, if Girona is inconsistent and slips in at least 3 of the remaining 9 matches. This means that Bilbao and Atletico have the potential to overtake Girona's ranking, but with the condition that Atletico Madrid must win all their remaining matches, as does Bilbao. The point is, the race for the top four in La Liga is still quite exciting in terms of competition for Girona, Atletico and Bilbao.

La Liga is definitely a competitive league and for the fact that against all odds, Girona have proven to stay in the top spot, it only means that there's definitely good fighting and resilient spirits in the teams there. The last weeks of the season games seems to be a walk over for Girona as they've in the first legs played to their best and have mastered rightly their strategies and the opposing team approaches, and so they've got better experience to countering the moves that'll be made.

 Real Madrid is definitely of all the league teams be their toughest opponent but I believe that they'll definitely find the best way to counter the moves that'll be made. It'll be beautiful to see that Girona in a long time would get to have a ticket to the European cup next season, they're not aiming for the La Liga trophy, they're definitely going for next season's European ticket and so far, it's seeming like a finished task, we only have to wait for the last table result on the La Liga.

 Girona has been doing really well in the soccer season, surprising everyone with their great performance. In my opinion it still won't be that easy because to become a leader in La Liga you have to have deeper experience even competing with popular teams in La Liga is not an easy task because popular teams have more experience with various strategies to be able to regain their position first.

 I'd hope more that maybe there'll be a difference on the leader in the La Liga this season considering how dedicated Girona team generally are set towards making a remarkable change. Madrid for sure won't make it so easy for them and so let's anticipate how the remaining weeks of the season would turn out.

For this season, Barcelona will try to catch up even though it is very difficult because they are already far behind Real Madrid who are at the top of the standings, but with their quality which is now getting better I think they will try as hard as possible because mathematically they still have a chance to do that. .

Barcelona has really shown an impressive performance this days and i love the kind of courage and determination they have now especially there previous matches they have actually proven to everyone that they still have some performance left in them, although considering the financial problem the team management was having I never believe that Barcelona will still perform this way, well it shows that if Barcelona will be able to buy some players there performance will be more than this, however like I already mentioned there is no way Barcelona will be able to compete with real Madrid on this league so the best way for them is to stick on the second position.

[Asiska02]

Indeed, mathematically Barcelona still has that chance, but if no team succeeds in stopping Real Madrid until the end of the season then everything will be in vain. Apart from that, Real Madrid doesn't just need one defeat but at least four defeats if Barcelona wants to overtake them at the top of the standings. With that, it would be very impossible for Barcelona, but I have little faith that sometimes miracles do happen.

A miracle only happens if there are some certain clear facts of it happening, in this case, no miracle is happening and Barcelona cannot stop Real Madrid from winning the La Liga trophy. I feel they will be without trophy this season after missing on the La Liga title and also not much hope in them in the champions league because of the way they’re performing and the big teams in the competition who can easily evict them from the competition when they meet.

Eviction is important because it's the weapon levelled against average teams. The UEFA Champions League is not an easy tournament for elite team especially Barcelona but somehow they managed to remain in the UCL this season, Xavi Hernandez and his entire squad will now focused on winning the La Liga title this season though it won't be easy for them but they can actually achieve it only when they've surpassed Real Madrid on the table. There's no miracle that will be triggered this season, Barcelona have to fight for a solid spot in La Liga this season because obtaining a prominent spot require strong ground.

And realistically Barcelona only has a bigger chance in the UCL so now they are also shifting their focus there to give their best performance, now Barcelona is in the quarter-finals so their journey is not long, even though it is difficult.

Barcelona is almost certain to lose the La Liga title this season when Real Madrid leads the standings with an 8-point advantage with 9 games remaining. Real Madrid is comfortable enough to maintain its performance until the end of the season, but if they drop a few points in the next few games then maybe Barcelona can get closer.

The matches against Bilbao and Mallorca are something that Real Madrid must win before El Clasico, so if both can be won then it doesn't matter if Real Madrid loses in El Clasico. However, it would certainly be dangerous for Real Madrid if they lost one of the matches against Bilbao and Mallorca, they would be in danger of losing points in El Clasico too.

In my opinion, they don't have any chance of catching Real Madrid in the league table anymore, because Madrid will not lose all the remaining matches that remind them in the league all at list, and I can say that Real Madrid can just lose one game or draw in the laliga league now, because Madrid are performing very well, they are not playing with any club this time round, they see everyone big team in the competition, Ancelotti is performing well at the club, which is why he opted to prolong his contract with Real Madrid and he plans to win many trophies for the team before his contract expires, as well as introduce good players to the team. Barcelona is now in good condition, but they have failed to finish in first place in the league. Now they will focus on the Champions League quarterfinals against PSG, and when they play PSG, they will most likely eliminate them from the competition.

Barcelona seems difficult how to make their financial condition stable after facing financial problem last several season still not find the solve way how to make their financial healthy every season. Currently with Vitor Roque transfer and Barcelona can't pay full take more time each month payment until reach the amount of free transfer deal agreement.
Its serious problem for Barcelona in the future when signing other player, difficult get any team have agreement transfer paid in installments and not cash in one time. Spent much money for Camp Nou renovation and has many loan interested seems difficult for Barcelona will go bankrupt few season later after getting not balance yet with income and outcome. Barcelona must take opportunity with several players has huge values sell him before dropping performance and drop fees transfer.
