La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

I even think that Barcelona has a better chance of becoming champions this season, because Real has very big problems with injured players. In addition to the fact that their defense line was very weakened, now there are also losses in attack and I think that the loss of Vinicius could be too tangible a loss for Real, because in my opinion he did a lot of work. Mbappe has not yet become a super forward, something is stopping him, maybe it is the pressure that Benzema spoke about.

Everyone can speculate based on the facts on the field, but if you look at Real Madrid's current performance, it feels like Barcelona will be one of the strong candidates to win the title this season. But the journey is still quite long and there are many matches to go through before the season ends. This is where consistency is needed for Barcelona in maintaining victory and slowly they can make points with Real Madrid further apart. The problem is that the difference in points for both of them is not that far apart so that when Real Madrid's performance improves again, Barcelona must also appear consistent.

Mbappe has not shown a great striker class because he still shows many weaknesses so that Real Madrid does not get the benefits after recruiting him from PSG and maybe this is what needs to be fixed so that Real Madrid can play more consistently again.

Real Madrid did control the game from the first minute but struggled in the first half to break the defense of the home side until the dying minutes when Kylian Mbappe broke the deadlock before the break. It was in the second half that the scored the other two goals of the game to claim all three points in week that Barcelona did drop points. Like I said before the game, Real Madrid though have been inconsistent since the start of the season but I strongly believe in the ability of the club manager Carlo Ancelotti to turn things around and help them win one or two major trophies at the end of the current season.

Madrid are not completely in a slump because they are still in the top ranks and Carlo can still restore Madrid's performance if he finds the right tactics with the current players, Mbappe is not completely bad he can create important goals when needed Bellingham can also add a goal in this match so they can work together from now on for their clubs.

[Lidger]

Vinicius Jr's absence may not be a big problem at the moment. It's different from last season because last season there was no Mbappe but this season Real Madrid has Mbappe.

I see it from a different perspective than you. Yes, Real Madrid can now rely on Mbappe during Vinicius' injury, but since he moved to Real Madrid, he has not been at his best.

It is also difficult for Mbappe to adapt to the game in La Liga, of course it is very different from Mbappe's game when he was still playing for PSG, in terms of the game it is very much in accordance with Mbappe's criteria in the French League so actually the absence of Vinicius in the Real Madrid camp can be a breath of fresh air because the position placed by Vinicius is Mbappe's ideal position so hoping Mbappe can play according to his instincts, Mbappe must take this moment to prove that he can be much better than the responses of all Real Madrid supporters and prove that he is able to play well and provide victory and goals for Real Madrid.

We all know that Mbappe has performed great for PSG, so Real Madrid took him to the team with a lot of hope and Real Madrid waited a long time to take him to the team, but when he finally came to Real Madrid, the Madrid fans did not see the same performance from him. Mbappe is definitely a big name in football so expectations from him will always be higher than other players. The players in Real Madrid are undoubtedly much more skilled and experienced, if Mbappe can't do something good for the team even in such a good team, then it's a complete failure of Mbappe. We all know that when a player comes from a different league to a new league, it takes enough time to adapt himself to the players there, but Mbappé is definitely a professional footballer, so we will definitely want to see a good performance from him very quickly.

Madrid journey this season is not in accordance with the expectations that many people expect, the arrival of star players like Mbappe actually gives a lot of new problems to their current front line, I think even compared  Mbappe, last season Joselu can still be expected when the crisis in the Madrid front line occurs although he is often on the bench, although Madrid still has a chance in the league but Ancelotti has to work hard to find the right solution at this time to Maximizing the potential that Mbappe has, I think previously Madrid only had problems with their defense this season, but after watching their match against Liverpool in the UCL, I started to think that Madrid have a very complex problem in their squad although they have Mbappe at the moment.

Real Madrid made one of the most prominent signing last summer, keeping high hopes for Kylian Mbappe, only for the player to turn out been one of the most frontline that's embedded with big chance miss. However he needs more time in Santiago Bernabéu atleast to blend with his teammates? I doubt that because he's one of the fastest player to adapt to any club pattern, I wonder why he's finding it really hard to make things happen as he's popularly known for during his playing days in Parc des Princes stadium. On the records, I don't understand the glow limelight of Kylian Mbappe football career in Paris Saint-Germain, compared to his present state in Real Madrid. Everything is absolutely not working right for the Frenchman, he's struggling to fit in and it's all twisted.

I like your view of Real Madrid which is quite positive. Well, hopefully this team will get up soon and prove again that they are a team that will not be down for a long time. They have to prove that they can rise without having to wait a long time. Ancelotti will definitely give everything he can for this team. Because Real Madrid's current position in the Champions League is also quite worrying. So that in the next matches Real Madrid really can't afford to lose or even draw.

And in Laliga I think Real Madrid is still fine. They also have points that are not much different from Barcelona. Moreover, Real Madrid has 1 postponed match that they can take advantage of. So yeah Real Madrid is not that bad in Laliga. What I'm worried about Real Madrid is only their current position in the Champions League.

And Madrid is gradually bouncing back their steps which is good because the image they were showing is not encouraging at all and fans were not happy with the way things were going because Madrid was almost losing every game, but since they are retracing back there steps is a good one, and I think carlo knows what is at stake so he does not want to let people down just like that and Vinicius is currently on injury but they should be able to play most of their games without him, and the fact that mbappe is gradually coming up is making everyone more excited.

From the beginning of this season they have been having a very bad season and all hope was almost lost in them because the gap between them and Barcelona was huge but they are currently working towards that I was not even expecting them to pick up this period all my thought was that they won't be able to accomplish anything this season and Carlo does not want to accept defeat, mbappe and Bellingham needs to understand their self so to make there game more effectively.

It's very sad and disturbing that Kylian Mbappe since he arrived Real Madrid have not been able to be performing at the top of his football strength just like we used to see him do when he was at Paris Saint Germaine. However, for a player of his abilities, I think the French man has all it takes to rediscover his fine form and start scoring plenty goals and helping Real Madrid win games which was the major reasons the club signed him. Last night at Liverpool, he had a terrible performance but I hope it doesn't affect his confidence in his quest to fully adapt to life in Spain as well as get back to his best once again.

The absence of Yamal Impacted the game Barcelona seemed lifeless on the right side or center, some players like Lopez, Pedri, De Jong, J.Koude, maybe those are some players that I think were lacking in yesterday's match and some factors that made the goal scored, there was no plan whatsoever implemented by Barcelona and the results we can see in yesterday's match, disappointing maybe but the journey is still long and must remain focused to widen the gap from Real Madrid.

Undoubtedly Yamal is very good and is a key piece for Barcelona, ??for that reason they should take good care of him, what they have in their favor is that he is young and that is a big plus, also because the good moment that he is having helps him a lot, but they can't be dependent on a player like that because the same thing happens to them as to Madrid, they have so many players that if they are missing just one star they start to collapse and they show it on the court, when they tie or lose, that is the only bad thing about depending too much on these players who are so good.

Madrid is very likely to bounce back, they still have a pretty good position in the league as runners-up with 30 points and are only four points behind leaders Barcelona. If Madrid can perform more consistently then it is very possible that Real Madrid can seize the top position in the standings, although currently their position is still overshadowed by Atletico Madrid who are in third place in the standings with 29 points.

However, regarding their position in the UCL, they are currently in a pretty worrying position, namely in 24th position while with three matches remaining, Real Madrid must maximize the three matches to get more points so that their hopes of qualifying for the next phase remain intact, because what can be expected now is to maintain their position in the top 24.

And they have a momentum for themselves going, which I think is a huge factor for a player to decide about his next move. If Barcelona was still a mess and the headlines were mostly dominated by the debt they have and by nothing else, it is not to be neglected that talents like Yamal would very quickly follow the money and excitement from a world club that is successful. But now if Barcelona does a good job, they can comprehensibly explain to him the direction the clubs wants to be heading and how big and essential his personal role be to build the team of the future. It says he has this story with Messi when he was a child and I think Yamal might be a player who likes the idea of building a legacy with one club instead of becoming a mercenary. You can still build a legacy, but it is not the same.

Yeah they're not, but not yet. Real Madrid may be completely slump if they keep lose more players due to the injury. that's why they must be cautious if they get more players out without quality players to replace the injured players. Being placed at the top rank didn't guarantee them can survive till the end of season.

I think you forgot Ancelotti's squad is just getting even thin with more players our due injury. He can't find a tactic that can fit his squad if he has no quality players available in his squad.

There was no less drama behind the signing of Mbappe, and despite all the drama, Real Madrid has always waited for Mbappe and finally brought Mbappe to Real Madrid, but even though they tried so hard to bring this player to Real Madrid, it seems that Real Madrid is not getting much. The same position was largely blamed for Mbappe's poor performances for Real Madrid. In other words, Vinicius Jr. and Kylian Mbappe play on the left wing, whenever Mbappe is moved from the left wing to the finishing position, he is not able to do well, so why did we not see a good performance from Mbappe against Liverpool in the Champions League. Vinicius Jr. missed this Champions League match due to injury and Mbappe was expected to do well in that spot but Mbappe did not do so. 
Real Madrid is a clean team if a player takes so long to come into this team and perform I don't know what lies ahead for him.

[Weawant]

It seems Barcelona is just struggling like Real Madrid. The gap in Barcelona's odds to the Real Madrid is very thin. It was only 1 point gap (with the assumption RM won 1 unplayed match). It seems we're going to see a very strict competition like last season.

I was really disappointed when Barcelona was just leading the league with huge gap. I happy to see they had missed lots of points in their previous games.

The flippenning in the first position is possibly to happen at the mid season. The problem is Madrid missed lots of its key players. They will so struggle to get three points in their upcoming games.

The. outright gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid is also very small.

Looking at the table in this picture, there's a four points difference actually between these two teams, and since this season Barcelona has been at their best, I know Madrid is doing just well in that they have been able to maintain this top position even with the injuries and setbacks they have had to tackle this season but Barcelona is really bent at strongly been in the race title and the chances currently are huge for them but they will need to staying consistent with some morr winnings and even at mid season they will still be at the top.

But it looks like Yamal will recover quickly so Barcelona may still be safe at the top of the table. Because after all, a gap of only four points is certainly a close point gap and it is certainly unfortunate, because Barcelona failed to continue to move further to leave Real Madrid who are still in  a situation and condition that is not entirely good. Thus, Barcelona still have to make greater efforts to be able to secure their position at the top of the standings, because if Barcelona feel complacent then it will be a great opportunity for Real Madrid to overtake Barcelona.

Madrid are not completely in a slump because they are still in the top ranks and Carlo can still restore Madrid's performance if he finds the right tactics with the current players, Mbappe is not completely bad he can create important goals when needed Bellingham can also add a goal in this match so they can work together from now on for their clubs.

I guess Mbappé had his worse day yesterday since he went into spotlight in his professional career, the missed penalty shootout and the underperformance that was seen throughout the game even when he got the opportunity to play his favorite position after the absence of Vini Jr, he wasn't still on foot to make things happen the best way for the Madrid. Mbappé's performance today was unfit for a star like him and the fame he's gathered over the years now.

I think something is fundamentally wrong with Mbappé's performance since he came to the Madrid, the lack of consistency, low goals scored and weak offensive strategy have grown to be worse for a team who brought him with hundreds of millions of bucks to pull him to the team. Since he came in, the chemistry between the Madrid players have only reduced and Mbappé have been particularly disconnected with the entire team as seen on the viral footage showing the mannerin which the other players treated him with Bellingham ignoring him in the tunnel yesterday.

So far, both Barcelona and Real Madrid have equal chances of becoming the champions of La Liga. Although Barcelona has still managed to retain the top spot in the table. However, Barcelona is under a lot of pressure at the moment after losing points in two consecutive matches. On the other hand, Real Madrid's performance has been very irregular this season. Madrid is far behind in the Champions League. However, Madrid is still capable of occupying the top spot in the table. I am waiting to see how Barcelona performs in the upcoming matches of La Liga. If Barcelona's performance is irregular, Barcelona may lose the top spot in the table very soon.

Exactly, no one believes that Mbappe will perform weakly if he comes to Real Madrid because he is a great player in the PSG and has won the golden boot and the league, and he comes to Real Madrid to achieve the Champions League and is first season as a bad in the club. When Madrid play against Barcelona in the league, it is Mbappe who finishes them on the pitch because he did not position himself well, and now he still spoils the fans mind against Liverpool and he play is position against Liverpool but still I didn't see what he played in the match, losing a great opportunity that will make Madrid have more motivation of winning the game, if Mbappe score the penalty. I believe Bellingham for penalty more the Mbappe and even vini Jr, because he know how to score very well because when they play against Manchester City in the ucl when playing penalty shootout, Bellingham goals is more great then others. Let see how Madrid will play all the four matches in all competitions without vini Jr and see if they Mbappe will improve and help madrid achieve point.

I think mbappe failed to meet most people's expectations, I don't know what went wrong when ancelotti gave him a place that fits his position, mbappe is no better than vini jr and doesn't even seem to help his team's defense much, maybe he was too spoiled at PSG so he didn't want to work harder. I wonder if mbappe will have the same fate as kaka and hazard failed to shine with madrid.

[Huppercase]

Madrid are not completely in a slump because they are still in the top ranks and Carlo can still restore Madrid's performance if he finds the right tactics with the current players, Mbappe is not completely bad he can create important goals when needed Bellingham can also add a goal in this match so they can work together from now on for their clubs.

I'm not sure if Real Madrid has something to bring to the table any more. Today, Mbape improves and the following day, he used his hand to destroy the past and the future. Who is in that club that can do what Vinicious can do for that club right now, Rodrigo as alternative is out due to injuries and Vinicious is our for the next 2 weeks, that means they will suffer another 2 weeks of defeat, that means they wouldn't be able to proceed to the next step.

Barcelona is facing some challenges but they aren't as worse like the way Real Madrid is right now and as long as they have Raphina and Lewandowski as their forward, they have every chance of winning their next match, that's the difference between them and Real Madrid. This is the only chance they have right now to over take Barcelona but with what they have played against Liverpool, I'm not sure they can deliver anything for that club this season.
