La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Velvet78]

This was less expected from Barcelona, even if they have to lose but not like this for a club who has started very amicably and kept straight win for the past 5 matches, early goals in the first half is really a bad sign that now they should step up their game to at most finish in draw rather than loss whole three points.

Losing this fixture means lessening the margin of goal difference between them and Madrid which makes it a bit more possible for Madrid to take on the lead. Barcelona started the season pretty well, i only have to believe that there is a way out of these, we may likely end up seeing a draw in today's game if they probably would do same as what we saw in Dortmund, with a wonderful comeback in the second half.

A total defeat by 4-2... It was really a disaster for Barcelona after such an incredible start.    Hansi Flick took full responsibility of this loss on his comments related to the game. People criticized Yamal's being in the substitutes. But I understand the manager on this. Because he has to rotate players as the schedule is very busy. It is the same situation for any team competing in European tournaments at the same time.

When it comes to the Madrid derby, it is time. It is tonight.    Barcelona would make use of a draw in this game. I think it is a quite probable result. Simeone's students also started pretty well as you have seen so far.

Making Mbappe look like he's the most important player in the Madrid squad is something we seriously shouldn't be talking about after all he hasn't made a good account of himself since joining Madrid, let's forget about the goals because aside from that Mbappe is not even suppose to be in any starting list for Madrid. And how certain are you that he is not going to play? From all I have seen I believe he will, there are some games he's not suppose to start or being listed as the sub but the manager still plays him so let's watch and see what happens next.

Carlo Ancelotti gives Kylian Mbappé too much slack. He makes too many selfish decisions. He doesn't pass to available players. From what I've seen, if another player at Real Madrid did these things, for example Brahim Diaz, wasting a position without passing to another available player, Ancelotti would never forgive him, but when it comes to Mbappé, he's given too many opportunities. I'm sure he'll still be in the starting 11.

That's what I call community right, meaning that weather he plays well or not he'll be featured in the next game, because he has been their target and now they got him, everything has to revolve around him like the player Mbappe is a crowned prince of Madrid. While all these selfish decision making like you called it and all those trying to make his name known it makes the team to be unbalanced to me, no positive effect and I won't say much is expected of him (Mbappe), he's just desperate to be the face of Madrid just like he was at PSG and if care is not taken he might not even perform well at Madrid. The manager just have to treat Mbappe the way he's treating other players if not the team might not play as a unit. For this game ahead I don't think his presence is even needed because Madrid don't need anyone to cine waste chances they're suppose to convert.

Barcelona made too many mistakes in this match, the first two goals were the goalkeeper's fault, that was enough to ruin the mood for the game, then there were two mistakes from the defenders, a penalty and the last goal, the same thing. A bad day for Barcelona, ​​too many goals conceded, and it looks like until Barcelona solves the goalkeeper issue, we can see something similar in the next matches. Real will play Atletico today, they may also lose points, but even if they win, Barcelona will retain first place, at least for now.

I have said in the previous post, Flick's decision is very risky and he already knows the end result with that decision. considering the situation, there are not many options for Flick, with many injured players, a tight schedule, he took a risk with his choice. the worst is his defense, I'm sure Flick will find a way to overcome it.

In my country, the Madrid derby will be held early this morning, we have also said our opinions and assumptions in the previous post. I am still considering the betting options, because the odds of both teams do not have a difference. which means, both teams can defeat each other to get full points. or, another option is Over 2.5 goals. let's just wait for the battle between the two teams to be held, and what is certain is that this match will present a tough match atmosphere.

I really didn't think that Barcelona could be beaten by Osasuna even though when Osasuna played against Valencia the result was a 0-0 draw and I'm sure that in the match between Barcelona and Osasuna many people bet on Barcelona winning and I also lost the bet because I bet on Barcelona winning and I predicted 3 -0 for Barcelona's win but unfortunately my prediction failed.

I saw that Osasuna had a sharp counter attack and of course Barcelona's defense line was really easy to pass and honestly it was a shame that Yamal only played for a short time even though in my opinion he was really needed and I'm sure that if for example Yamal played for a long time there would certainly be potential for Barcelona won't lose. But yes, I hope that from this incident Hansi Flick can be more alert to any team that Barcelona will face. and of course this is Barcelona's first defeat and of course Osasuna victory makes Real Madrid happy because of course the difference in points between Barcelona and Real Madrid is definitely getting closer.

but to be honest, I am also amazed by the Osasuna players who were able to take advantage of opportunities well, of course now Osasuna must be proud because they were able to win against Barcelona and of course Osasuna will be more confident for the next match.

Real will play Atletico today, they may also lose points, but even if they win, Barcelona will retain first place, at least for now.

Now I see why Barcelona were really looking for a replacement for their injured goalkeeper, and after that terrible display by Iñaki Peña I think Barcelona would hasten up their quest for a new goal keeper, that was a big chance for Peña to prove himself and maintain that spot until Ter Stegen returns but he's ruined it with a very poor performance. It was indeed a bad day for Barcelona it's their first defeat in the Laliga this season and they suffered a heavy one loosing four goals against Osasuna, it's not really encouraging and they need to make up for that lose. The lose has made Real Madrid the only team in Laliga to remain unbeaten currently however we're some hours away from knowing if they'll remain unbeaten or lose like Barcelona, the derby match against Atletico Madrid would be a very tough one and Real Madrid would be playing without Kylian Mbappé. Well Ancelotti made it clear to the press that his team would be fine playing Atletico Madrid without Mbappé, let's  watch and see how it goes.

Hey I was totally surprised when I saw that Barcelona lost 4-2 to Osasuna. Actually I didn't watch the live telecast of this match so I was totally shocked to see the result of this match after searching on google.

I'm happy with this result, Barcelona lost beyond prediction. Of course, this result makes Barcelona's record not inferior to be destroyed in 8 matches. This makes only 2 clubs in La Liga unbeaten, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. This will narrow the points gap for Madrid if they can win tomorrow.
But Real Madrid will play Atletico Madrid, they will go to the Metropolitano. This is not an easy match. I'm not 100% sure Real Madrid will win. But I hope Real Madrid doesn't lose. Mbaape's injury also slightly reduced Real Madrid's strength, I think Ancelotti will return to using the old 4-4-2 formation.

Barcelona suddenly having troubling time as we are having 4 games in just 9 days with 2 defeats for them and injuries concerns are also having huge impact on their progress in this season which was indicating before start of this season but still this is huge setback for them as they lost match by score of 4–2 they concede 7 goals in last 4 games which is also problem for them while their goalkeeper and few players are absence due to injuries.

Now we will be having Madrid derby tonight which is good advantage for them while they will have draw or winner this will give some relief to Barcelona for staying at the top spot hopefully Barcelona management will be able to fix their problems before it is started in more problematic way for them in this season.
