La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Dzwaafu11]

Some Real Madrid fans think that the 9 point difference is not too big, this is because they believe that every Real Madrid player has a Yamaha 85 PK engine installed on each back that is capable of covering that point gap in the near future. I don't know how optimistic they are this season after getting a first-hand look at the team's performance so far, but the fans still want the best.

I'm a Real Madrid fan, and I am very aware that 9 points is a number that can cause problems for Real Madrid. Although Ancelotti said that they are still confident of winning La Liga and UCL, but seeing their performance in both La Liga and UCL, it is quite doubtful. I still can't believe they still take that 9 point difference for granted.

9 points is a lot, it takes 3 wins for Real Madrid and 3 losses for Barcelona. Will Hansi Flick let his team lose 3 times during this season? I'm not sure about that, especially since they won El Clasico yesterday and this gives Barcelona a high motivation to be able to beat other clubs in La Liga throughout the season.

You are right. 9 points is a huge interval in the table. Barcelona are in very good form this season; they are in form where they can beat any team that they play with. Barcelona will not make any mistake to lose three matches and leave the space for Real Madrid, where as I’m still doubting if Real Madrid will be getting back and get the first position, because while they are in the process of restoring their performance, Barcelona will still be getting more points that will make it difficult for Real Madrid to catch up on the table. 

[SOKO-DEKE]

The gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid may widen further because Real Madrid is currently not in its best form. Mathematically, the gap between the two is only 6 points (if Real Madrid is able to beat Valencia in the postponed match), but if Valencia manages to steal points in that match, it is certain that Real Madrid will find it increasingly difficult to catch up with Barcelona.

From the beginning of the season, I never thought that Barcelona would even have chances to top the table. The reason was that I felt Real Madrid would be in such great form that no team could easily defeat them, due to the signing of Mbappé. Another reason was that Barcelona had not been able to sign more quality players to strengthen their squad, so I was not expecting any great rival for Real Madrid. As the gap in points between Barcelona and Real Madrid is getting wider, it is a big surprise to me. It is still possible for Real Madrid to catch up with the points if they get back to good form.

Conceded 7 goals in two consecutive games is a step backwards for Real Madrid, their front line is also not as productive as last season, they seem confused when they get a chance. The problems faced by Real Madrid are very serious, Ancelotti must immediately resolve the problem to put pressure on Barcelona who are enjoying the pleasure of being at the top of the standings.

Honestly, I don't expect a team like Real Madrid to concede many goals in any match they play, as they have great quality players. With what is currently happening now, the Real Madrid coach needs to find a way to resolve the problems. If not, it is very possible for them not to win any trophy this season. Even in the Champions League, which we all know Real Madrid for, they have lost two matches. It is really a bad record for Madrid with this set of players they have.

[hahay]

Of course, the marathon in the Spanish league is a very long one. The championship will depend on who can endure until the end of the league. Barcelona seems to have a great advantage for now, but if Real Madrid continues to win consistently in the rest of the league, they can continue to be a candidate for the championship again. I think Real Madrid is one of the favorite teams in the Spanish league and this seems to continue. I think they will compete with Barcelona for the championship until the end of the league.

Yes, La Liga, like other competitions, is a long marathon

I remain optimistic and i really hope that Carlo Ancelotti will be able to fix what isnt working at the moment.
He has always succeeded, he will succeed this time too. in my opinion

It is clear that with this physical decline, Barcelona can breathe a sigh of relief

Basically, La Liga is only about Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​because only those two teams are consistently at the top of the La Liga standings every season. But for this season, I personally will admit that Barcelona is in a very good situation and condition, so if Barcelona can stay at the top of the La Liga standings at least until the middle of the season, then maybe it can be ascertained that Barcelona will get the La Liga trophy this season. I personally do not feel that this assessment is excessive because in fact, so far Barcelona under Hansi Flick clearly has very good quality because they have succeeded in increasing the potential of each of their players as well.

Thus, I personally am very confident that Barcelona will get the trophy this season even though, before the league started and Mbappe joined Real Madrid, at that time I was very sure that Real Madrid would be very strong this season. But in reality, it is very far from what was previously imagined, because so far Real Madrid still needs a greater effort to get good results with the star players they have.

[iBaba]

Honestly I'm beginning to even be scared if Madrid is going to have a chance at the champions league considering their performance in recent times, Barcelona at some point is even looking promising than Madrid to me, talking about the cooperation of players, i don't think that is the main issue Madrid has gotten now, but the players has got little rift at some point but it doesn't appear like a primary issue to me just yet.

Real Madrid is not really in form as far as my judgement is concerned. I used to have a lot of believe in the ability and capabilities of Ancelotti but I still wonder why he isn't able to his house together till now and continue to dampen the hope in which the fans and other well wishers have in them. This is beginning to look like a case of table turning south for the Real Madrid guys. Last season it was Barcelona who lost its grip on wedging a serious competition against the Real Madrid and now it is gradually turning to the Real Madrid guys now.

But in reality, it is very far from what was previously imagined, because so far Real Madrid still needs a greater effort to get good results with the star players they have.

Real Madrid's situation has indeed looked worrying in recent weeks. apart from a star-studded squad, with an extraordinary squad and very experienced team that is not delivering on the field. The forward line appears blunt, as though it has been stripped of all its sharpness and verve to outplay the opponent's defense. Similarly, the midfield area where creativity normally flows into the attack seems uninspired and ill-equipped to create well-established chances. Real Madrid also has a very fragile defense. It is easy for opponents to press upon them, and very often they find themselves without a solution when under attack. This may make Real Madrid look inconsistent, and Barcelona appears ready to take advantage of this condition, to seize, La Liga dominance this season. If Real Madrid does not make immediate changes to achieve much closer competition, then it will be hard for them to sustain the position at the top of the standings.

Everyone is expected That real madrid will be top of the league due to good signings. But now the matter is reversed Barcelona is top of the league, although they didn't sign any good expect Dani Olmo. Despite Real Madrid signing Killian Mbappe. The secret of all this success is only Hansi Flick. He managed the team by making every possible effort—no big signing, he chose academic players. 
 
Real madrid has a good team but the problem is that they didn't sign the players they needed to make the team strong enough. It means midfield real madrid know that a fair passer like Toni Kroos is leaving the team but they didn't bring any replacements for him. So far, Killyan Mbappe is playing as a ST role which he cannot play with full of confidence because he is natural winger. So these are all the mistakes that real madrid has made and that's why they can't catch up with Barcelona.

9 points is still very difficult to catch up but that does not mean this is the end because after all for Madrid now they must try to improve their performance to be even better. The season is still quite long and that means there is still time for Madrid to manage the club better because for now the problem that Madrid faces is erratic performance due to several things that do not go according to the will such as the chemistry that still does not look comfortable between the players and the formation scheme that is still being changed.

They still have 1 game left and that means it is still possible to get 3 points so that it can reduce the current points gap but on the other hand they also have to make some different things because for now Barcelona's dominance at the beginning of this season is really troublesome and Madrid must do the same if they want to stick to Barcelona for now.

Real Madrid will definitely have a hard time meeting up with Barcelona in La Liga because Barcelona are in their best form now. But I don’t know that will happen before the end of the season. For now, all we can say is that no team like Barcelona always uses their opportunities to gather as many goals as they want, which will still make them go further in the table. 

I don’t know for now, but if Real Madrid get rid of their defence issues and focus on winning lots of games, I think they will be able to meet up with Barcelona. Mind you, Barcelona players might go to injury within the season, which we don’t know how it will affect the team. That is why it’s called a game; anything is capable of happening.

Barcelona now leads Real Madrid by 9 points, although Madrid has not played Valencia, which is why the point differential exists. If Madrid plays the upcoming match against Valencia, the point difference will be 6 points since I am confident that Real Madrid will overcome Valencia when they meet, so in my opinion, the difference will be only 6 points. And the league is still moving find, so I am sure even Barcelona will get the opportunity of winning the laliga, the difference in points won't pass three or two because Athletico Madrid are in better shape and he will be difficult for Barcelona to achieve three points with them this time, Barcelona has always had the opportunity to defeat AthleticoMadrid in most season home and away, but this season will be different. Flick is doing a great job for Barcelona and he will do anything possible to win the laliga this time and the champions league, they are unstoppable now if is fleck that is coaching Barcelona last season imam sure Barcelona will be in a better form.

I really do love he way Barcelona is going about this season, it shows they are ready for the champions and domestic league, tonight in the champions League, they are already leading but give goals and it still looks like they may add another before the end of the game, this has to be one of the season Barcelona has been in one of their best shape, the eas with which they rain goals is sometimes unimaginable as it is least expected sometimes, I could see it as Ben okay in their domestic league but in champions League it becomes something else, could it be they are aiming at the trophy?, after all Madrid isn't in the right form to fight currently.

What you're saying is true, 9 points is a lot
but the season, let's still say, is long. We still have a good month of games to finish the winter part of the competition so it's a good 12-15 points
after the Christmas holidays a large portion of the team will leave beyond the goal, there are still many points

It is clear that this advantage has a psychological impact

I don't know how optimistic they are this season after getting a first-hand look at the team's performance so far, but the fans still want the best.

Basically, I don't completely deny things like that, of course because I quite often find that Real Madrid can recover and catch up with the points gap before the end of the season. However, if they fall further behind, then everything will be very difficult to recover and the possibility of failing to defend the title will be even higher. Meanwhile, Real Madrid is 1-2 behind Milan in the ongoing match. Milan could have locked in victory if they had scored 1 additional goal for a score of 1-3.

Real Madrid is a world-class club with a rich history of success, and while the 9-point gap between them and Barcelona may seem significant, if Real Madrid can come together as a team, identify their issues, and address them promptly, there’s every possibility they can close the gap and catch up with Barcelona. The season is still long, and form can change quickly in football. However, if they continue to struggle with their current form and fail to resolve the underlying problems within the team, it could be difficult for them to even secure a top-three finish in La Liga this season. Madrid’s squad has the talent to compete at the highest level, but they need to find consistency, improve their team dynamics, and build momentum. Failure to do so could see them fall further behind not only Barcelona but also other teams competing for top positions.

The thing is even if Barcelona somehow drops points, Madrid will also still drop points too. Currently, Madrid is so horrible that it looks like it will get worse. There seems to be no unity or chemistry among the team and to add to that they are plagued with injuries.
I believe Carlo Ancelloti will be sacked before the end of the season. I expected him to leave on a high not at the end of last season but he didn't. I feel like he is out of ideas at this point.
Right now, the only hope that Madrid has is that they actually have very good players who can turn up and change games on their own and Madrid is a team that gets better at the later stages of the season. If they manage to remain in the Champions League till the quarter-final, the spirit might come and they might just pick form.

Pokapoka124,
My dear brother, I do not see Real Madrid coming back in La Liga to beat Barcelona. No matter how good that might turn to become in the future it all depends on the Barcelona squad. The present Barcelona will are seen is not joking and they have started to hit the ground right from their first match till this moment. Raphinlna is in his top form, the little Yamal and old Lewa are all in good form.
So, for Real Madrid to win the La Liga means that two things will have to happen;

• Real Madrid has to return to excellent form
• Barcelona has to lose form

But there's no guarantee that these two things will happen.

[Pokapoka124]

Even though they recruited Mbappe whose talent has been seen, but that did not make them able to beat Barcelona in their match yesterday.
No one knows what will happen in the future because the season is still quite long, so Real Madrid still has the opportunity to increase their points, it's just that considering Barcelona who is currently skyrocketing, it seems difficult if Real Madrid does not have a new strategy this season that is more efficient.

I thought when Real Madrid brought in Mbappe, they are going to transition him to being a genuine striker like they did with Cristiano Ronaldo. I absolutely agree that he seems more confident and comfortable when he is playing on the left side. But it is also true that he has just come into this squad and probably it will take him a little time to get used to which the Real Madrid squad. Adaptability has been kind of a problem with him. Real Madrid always finds a way to get the best out of a certain player. So I think it is going to be the same with him. Maybe it is taking a little bit of time because he is getting absolutely different conditions and situations only was in when he was playing with PSG squad. But I still think it is going to work out.

Mbappe has not fully settle into his new environment at Real Madrid. Mbappe is a world class player and has the potential to be a key figure for the club, and I’m confident that with time, he will adjust and find his rhythm at the Santiago Bernabeu. His talent and work ethic suggest that once he settles in, he will help get Madrid firing again.

Real Madrid’s recent issues are more likely due to other factors, such as injuries, tactical adjustments, or team chemistry, rather than the arrival of a single player. Football teams go through phases of transition, and it’s unfair to attribute the club's challenges solely to Mbappe's presence.

If they manage to remain in the Champions League till the quarter-final, the spirit might come and they might just pick form.

I was also extremely surprised when Carlo Ancelotti stayed at Real Madrid after last season. Nevertheless, many of the recent successes of Real Madrid have been based on luck and a successful combination of circumstances, although of course I do not question the character, the highest class of the players themselves and the coaching skills of the head coach. But still, the longer it goes on, the more likely it is that luck will start to turn away at the most inopportune moment. Still, I think Ancelotti will be allowed to finalize most scenarios before the end of the season and organizational conclusions will be made later. However, there are still many matches to improve the situation in the championship, but let's not forget that Barcelona will also not necessarily stand still and wait for a competitor.

But I still think it is going to work out.

It's a big gamble for Madrid, they signed a player who is used to and comfortable on the left wing while Vinicius Jr has been there for a long time so forcing Mbappe to wear the number 9 shirt is hard to accept. To be honest Ancelotti hasn't been able to fix that problem so don't be surprised if the process takes a little longer than we thought. As Benzema said:

“For me, Mbappé is not a 9. He's a left winger”.

"But the problem is that on the left wing, there's Vinicius Jr who's the best in the world".

Real Madrid needs to be patient with Mbappe, offering him the support and time he needs to adapt to the team’s dynamics. Mbappe is new to Spanish football. It’s important to remember that even the best players need time to adjust to a new club, especially at a club with the expectations of Real Madrid. With the right backing and time to settle in, Mbappe will surely live up to his potential and like Ronaldo, become instrumental to Real Madrid’s success. The support from  both the club and its supporters will be crucial for his eventual success.

When teams get extra wins their mental and physical health is somewhat stable and they may be somewhat relaxed and less prepared for the next match which may affect their losses. The situation could be the same for Barca as they are now top of the points table and second with Real Madrid far below in which case you can take it for granted that Barcelona lose their next match. As you said the players will be tired now and it will be seen how they perform in later conditions. But I strongly support their strength and tactical play as the way they build their team is capable of beating any strong team.

One of the reasons why Barcelona has performed well since the start of the season is because of Hansi Flick's ability and genius in managing the team, in the last transfer market only Dani Olmo was brought in, the rest he preferred to utilize the abilities of young players. Hansi Flick has many options in forming the starting XI, he has rotated several times but the results have not reduced Barcelona's performance. Barcelona's players' abilities are almost even, each player has above average abilities, so when they meet a weaker team, he can rotate to maintain the players' fitness.

At the beginning of season i was underestimate Hansi Flick because with Barcelona current condition i highly doubt Hansi Flick can able to bringing Barcelona to compete with Real Madrid for race title and when this team is required new players but Hansi Flick only bought Dani Olmo which i thought this transfer won't be effective but clearly i was wrong about that because Hansi Flick has done well in Barcelona and one thing for sure that Hansi Flick can make some of Barcelona players can in form again and this is what Xavi couldn't do and besides that although some of Barcelona players got the injured but Hansi Flick can solved this problem and Barcelona still consistent at least until week 12

I didn’t underestimate Hansi Flick’s tactics at Barcelona at the start of this season, given his track record as a successful coach with teams like Bayern Munich. Flick is a highly respected manager, known for his tactical acumen and ability to get the best out of his players. The club has always prioritized nurturing young talent and promoting them to the first team, something that Flick has a reputation for doing well. Hansi Flick to Barcelona was a match made in heaven. Under Flick, Barcelona has returned to its competitive status, and it’s exciting to see how they will continue to evolve this season.

9 points is a lot, it takes 3 wins for Real Madrid and 3 losses for Barcelona.

A difference of 9 points is of course quite a big difference for Real Madrid, so with this, it will indeed be quite difficult for Real Madrid to become champions in Laliga. Because as we know, with Barcelona's current performance, it is quite impossible for Barcelona to lose 3 more times this season. For this reason, Ancelotti and Real Madrid may have to wait for a miracle until Barcelona suffers 3 defeats.

Yes, that's why, 9 points actually can't be underestimated. but it doesn't mean to make the team down. with this hopefully Ancelotti can really arrange tactics that are more appropriate to their situation. Now, not only is the midfield still lacking a playmaker after Kroos left, not only is their front line less effective and less sharp, but also their defense is quite weak. We also really miss Courtois to return to guard the goal.

......Raphinlna is in his top form, the little Yamal and old Lewa are all in good form.

Barcelona's front line is now very dangerous. They have always fought their opponents very well lately. Even in the last UCL match, they were able to get a victory with a very satisfying result.
FK Crvena zvezda 2 vs 5 Barcelona

Although their opponent is a small club, Barcelona also did not underestimate them so that they could optimally score 5 goals.
And again, Lewandowski was unstoppable with his 2 goals.

So far in the 2024/2025 season,

La Liga : 14 Goals and 2 assists

Honestly I'm beginning to even be scared if Madrid is going to have a chance at the champions league considering their performance in recent times, Barcelona at some point is even looking promising than Madrid to me, talking about the cooperation of players, i don't think that is the main issue Madrid has gotten now, but the players has got little rift at some point but it doesn't appear like a primary issue to me just yet.

Real Madrid is not really in form as far as my judgement is concerned. I used to have a lot of believe in the ability and capabilities of Ancelotti but I still wonder why he isn't able to his house together till now and continue to dampen the hope in which the fans and other well wishers have in them. This is beginning to look like a case of table turning south for the Real Madrid guys. Last season it was Barcelona who lost its grip on wedging a serious competition against the Real Madrid and now it is gradually turning to the Real Madrid guys now.

We can still predict that every great team will have their best and worst moments on the way to achieving greatness. Real Madrid is now in a period where match outcomes as well as players’ performances have not offered the anticipated outcomes, however, as we all well are aware, this club always comes roaring back. This one has a conviction that with Ancelotti, positivity will happen since he knows the players and this club very well.

Nevertheless, it might seem a long way now, but our waiting as fans and our support will help them to get a useful input. And always, the chance to regain the winning mentality during every match and training is present. We just need to hope that it will pay off, and that is why Real Madrid can shine again when the circumstances allow it.

The reason was that I felt Real Madrid would be in such great form that no team could easily defeat them, due to the signing of Mbappé. Another reason was that Barcelona had not been able to sign more quality players to strengthen their squad, so I was not expecting any great rival for Real Madrid. As the gap in points between Barcelona and Real Madrid is getting wider, it is a big surprise to me. It is still possible for Real Madrid to catch up with the points if they get back to good form.

The high expectations of Madrid and some of the problems, especially the doubts about Flick, made sense when many people thought Madrid would be comfortable in the competition this season and Barcelona would still have the same problems, but the situation has changed now especially after the big wins that Barcelona continues to win including against Madrid which makes Barcelona even more different now because they have a new spirit to conquer the half of the season well.

It's just that for now or maybe in the middle of the season Madrid can be more able to maintain consistency in order to make the competition more interesting because after all until now we must have seen that in the end the big league is always colored with a fairly tight competition so with the situation in La Liga now that Barcelona is like running alone, of course this must be corrected because after all the season will not be too interesting if only Barcelona goes far without being able to be pursued in terms of points.
