La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[BITCOIN4X]

In terms of the match, I am not too satisfied with Madrid's performance, you can count how many chances Mbappe failed to score. Imagine if every chance was a goal then Mbappe scored a hattrick. Getafe played defensively in the first half because there was no choice at all. While in the second half Getafe tried to get out 2x hitting the crossbar so that their defense line had many open gaps but Madrid could not take advantage of the opportunities.

Kylian Mbappe's poor finishing this season is the reason why Real Madrid does not have high goal productivity. You are of course right that Mbappe had many opportunities in this match, but not only in that match, but in all matches Mbappe had many wasted opportunities. He has to be calm and stay away from pressure, so he needs to do it as well as possible so as not to become a player who will be ridiculed by his own fans.

Real Madrid were good in the first half but I can't say the same for the other half.    After capturing the 2-0 lead they got relieved probably. At least they maintained the same score until the end. It was Bellingham's day with a goal and an assist. Nice to see Mbappe scoring too. You know how inconsistent he has been at his new team. There is criticism pointing him and Ancelotti is trying to keep him focused.

Atletico Madrid were also amazing with a 5-0 victory over Valladolid by the way. It is lovely to watch the title competition now.    Top 3 are really close to each other and Real Madrid are very probable to take the lead soon.

They were actually playing well in both just that the tempo of the second half game reduced which wasn’t a surprise due to the lack at Getafe was playing. Getafe rarely had balls in the first and that was what made Madrid to be in total control of the game in that half, In the second half it was definitely different with intensity from Getafe as they started having more of the balls which was more of a tactical switch by the manager. Also the more balls that Getafe was seeing was in the midfield and that’s why Uche in the Getafe midfield was seeing more of the ball. The Madrid midfield in the second half wasn’t it self due to the withdrawal of Jude Bellingham which I hope is not an injury or a long term one because it Will ba anther big over hyped players .

Seriously I like the fact that the three clubs that usually challenge for the title are now doing same thing again after the explosive start to the season by Barcelona which made many of the remaining club fans thinking that the competition might have even ended right before the start. The Barcelona recent form is definitely a good one to me because it has just made the league open, competitive and more fun

We shouldn't pressure Mbappe before he turns into a flop. How many goals were we expecting him to be on by this time that we are just about half way into the league. The highest any team has played is 15 games and we still have more games left to play therefore there's enough time for more goals to be scored. He already has 10 goals without adding other contributions he's adding to the team therefore I don't think he's performing that bad as people are making it to look like. We expected so much from him but everything won't just happen immediately but will take some time. Real Madrid defeated Getafe and Mbappe scored and are likely going to win the league now.

The more they pressure Mbappe theore he will be missing more good opportunities I think the media and fans should give him some breathing space so that he can be himself and play his normal style of football. Mbappe is not the only Real Madrid player who is not playing well this season but the talk s has always been on him not finishing well when it is very obvious that he is still struggling to adapt to his current position in the Real Madrid team. I think the player is gradually losing his confidence in front of goals and I expect the Real Madrid coach to have addressed the Real Madrid fans before now so that they will keep supporting Mbappe.

I don't know the reason behind Kylian Mbappe struggles in front of goals this season. At Paris Saint Germaine, Kylian Mbappe prolificity was out of this world but since he joined Real Madrid in the summer, the France national team captain have been trying to find his best scoring form again. He did score today but had more chances of scoring more but he wasted the scoring opportunities.
Kylian Mbappe I think is playing under pressure which is why he struggles to keep calm in front of goal but can do better if he stops allowing pressure from fans get to him.

Mbappe was below expectations, he did not get good results in most matches, he did not have the finishing ability we know, Mbappe reminded us of his real finishing ability with the goals he scored in this match, even if only a little. He needs to score these goals a lot, Mbappe's Real Madrid are currently saying we are here for the league championship.

The first three teams are very close in terms of points, they all have a one point difference between them. Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid got closer to Barcelona with their consecutive wins, while Barcelona had suffered losses in recent weeks.

Mbappe lower the expectation of people after signing people saw him to be a super player that will improve the performance of the club and with the help of mbappe Vinicius wss suppose to win all there games because they look like a match but even Vinicius performance have dropped this season and if not now that they are getting back on there feet because the conditions of Madrid was actually worse and it made people almost losing hope in them. And the issue of him wasting opportunity is actually very true but the mistake have been made I won't lie  the advice of getting mbappe was a good one but they are not getting results.

And the season will soon come to an end and at the end of the day Barcelona might win if they continue to maintain consistency thay is what Madrid is lacking and they don't have a choice than to improve because of how the expectations of people is been reduced to nothing just because of how they have been failing, if they don't win anything they might do a come back next season which is not certain is just speculation since this season looks rough for them.

So far, Mbappé proved that he is a player with high contribution, despite the expectations. He is a valuable asset to the team because he consistently immense several goals to help the team. The season’s long and there are still lots of opportunities, so we have to let him keep growing, because he deserves it. If Mbappé has the right support and great teamwork, he is going to make the biggest impact. With time, many good things can still get accomplished with this potential already achieved so far.

Honestly, he did miss the chances a few times in this match, just like in other previous matches. But this time, there has been a little progress. Yes, at least, he has scored 1 goal in the match against Getafe and contributed 1 winning goal for Real Madrid. If he can be that optimal in every chance, then his contribution will be more visible. It's just that, it's quite covered up by some things and his ridiculous position when on the attacking line, with offside and also his position which is more often waiting for the ball.

Mbappe being ridiculed by how own fans is not something I am foreseeing to happen. He’s really liked by his fans and have been receiving a lot more praises since he joined the team. Ancelotti also said Mbappe’s problem is the whole team’s problem and they won’t have to leave him to face any difficulty which ridiculing could be a part of it from the fans if at all any will come from the fans in the future. He’s still adapting and yet to get himself fit well for the club. For him not to have adopted till this period, he may not get the better of himself this season until the next season again. Also maybe by the mid season he may have improved, but if he doesn’t, then we shouldn’t expect anything spectacular from him this season until the next season.

Real Madrid usually wins this match, I don't think it's difficult to win this match today. Getafe team attacked only a few times, you can see that Real Madrid team was relatively strong and full of squad.
The first goal was a penalty and the second goal was a kick that Mbappe gave because of the goalkeeper's weakness, it didn't deserve to be a goal. The ball went straight through the front of the hand, but anyway, in today's match, Real Madrid fans were clapping. And Real Madrid team was able to collect three points very easily.

I don't think it needs us to put pressure onto Mbappe, the media in Spain and around the world will take care of that. But you know he won't turn into a flop in the literal sense, he will just stay below expectations that he himself built up throughout his career with some marvelous performances. Now people don't understand why there is a problem that the old (the young) Mbappe finally comes back. They want to see him explode again and take on the challenge with 3 opponents at the same time.

But so far many of the greatest moments he had are all moments from the past, if not all. It is not the brilliant Mbappe he can be and I wonder what is missing. Certainly a brilliant mind in the midfield or someone like Messi who perfectly understands how to serve a striker with an assist. Mbappe loved it because he knew Messi would see when he is about to go for a free space with a sprint. Real Madrid does not have the best midfield for the time being.

Even a few seasons ago, when Benzema was in charge, Real Madrid didn't play well. It seems to me that this isn't the Real Madrid coach's objective. He focuses only on getting good results. Winning the game is what interests him most. And they're not completely wrong. Proof of this is that he's now close to becoming the leader of the table again and Real Madrid will be champions again this season. I have no doubt about that. Because like I said: the Real Madrid coach just wants goals and victories. It doesn't matter if it's 1 goal or 2. As long as he doesn't concede a goal and we win, that's fine. That's why he's not worried about Mbappe, because when we look at the numbers:

Mbappe in La Liga: 13 games, 8 goals

These numbers aren't bad for a striker.

[stompix]

One just has to admire how quickly the wind shifts in this topic!

Barcelona gets defeated by Ossasuna, everyone is saying they can't compete with Real, they need to stop dreaming about La Liga!
Barcelona trashes Real 4-0 , Barcelona is the best, Real will have to settle for second, Barcelona has the best attack, they are unstoppable!
Barcelona loses to Las Palmas, everything is lost, Real is clear champions, Barcelona is not playing a thing anymore!

Guys, it was round 15 out of 38, we're not even at half the league, stop with these clear-cut predictions as they might not hold true next week, forget about another 20 matches!

That's the thing with football and you shouldn't be surprised that there are differing opinions about Barcelona's style of play currently. I still believe that like every other club who are experiencing their hard times, Barcelona aren't immune to setback so let's just give them time to see if they can get back up or this is the end for them even though the season is still fresh.

I'm not surprised at all, I'm pretty sure that things can easily turn around and we might have Real making a wrong step, what I'm surprised about is the instant reactions of this board everyone going 180 degrees after just one match, I know it's hard for it to happen but I would love to see it I the next round, Barcelona playing perfectly and Real flopping at Girona and see how suddenly again Barca is the favorite for the title just like that. It's just that I don't get it why most here treat every round like it's some elimination-style competition, one loss and you're out of the battle!

Kylian Mbappe's poor finishing this season is the reason why Real Madrid does not have high goal productivity. You are of course right that Mbappe had many opportunities in this match, but not only in that match, but in all matches Mbappe had many wasted opportunities. He has to be calm and stay away from pressure, so he needs to do it as well as possible so as not to become a player who will be ridiculed by his own fans.

They still are the second-best attacking team in the league with one less game and with far fewer plays against teams with weak defenses if you look at h2h between them and the rest, so I don't think there is actually any issues with goal productivity. After all, it matters little if you win 5 nill or 3-1, what matters are points.

But this is too superficial if we want to discuss Mbappe's performance in the last few months. He has scored some penalties included in those 8 goals, which is fine, but Real Madrid needs him to score goals apart from penalties. That is what he is known for. He scores when the opponents expect it the least. The numbers aren't bad, but this is like looking at the numbers when a striker scored 5 goals in 1 game and then doesn't score the next 4 games. He then averages 1 goal per game, but is it good for the team? I doubt it. He doesn't show up enough in the important games and now that you mention these numbers, where does Real Madrid need him to score the most? In the Champions League, but in that competition he rarely scores. I think 1 goal so far and this is the reason why they are where they are in the table.

[Sexylizzy2813]

The game Barcelona lost to Las Palmas was a bit confusing and I have been wondering why losing a game they have already won before the kick off of the game? The coach really wants to lose his position as the league leaders to Madrid that have been struggling to get that spark of brilliance but it hasn't been working for them and again Ancelotti said the last time they lost to Barcelona with 4 goals that they won the league which means they'll win this very campaign, it seems Hansi Flick wants all these things to happen.
It would be very bad to see Barcelona losing the league to Madrid after all these wonderful performance and if you check the table you would see that Madrid are very close with a game at hand and ATM are also catching up with just 2 pts behind. A friend said each time Barcelona game is being played in the afternoon they either lose or play a draw and is a must, how true is that to start with?

13 games and 8 goals, not too bad for Mbappe performances, but because he is a super star player, people expect too much from him. They forgot that Mbappe only joined Real Madrid in this summer and he had limited time for preseason training as consequences of Euro 2024 and Coppa America 2024. Many players in Real Madrid had to play in these tournaments and they had less time of training together in the summer.

I agree that Mbappe did not play with his best so far for Real Madrid but I believe he will improve his performances soon.

But this is too superficial if we want to discuss Mbappe's performance in the last few months. He has scored some penalties included in those 8 goals, which is fine, but Real Madrid needs him to score goals apart from penalties. That is what he is known for. He scores when the opponents expect it the least. The numbers aren't bad, but this is like looking at the numbers when a striker scored 5 goals in 1 game and then doesn't score the next 4 games.

The biggest thing Real Madrid can do to help Mbappe, is reducing pressure on him, and giving him opportunities to score goals from penalties is one of their attempts. Mbappe will return to better performances when he plays and enjoys matches, not with too much pressure at any match debut.

People in the last 20 years have become familiar with supermen like Messi and Ronaldo and they want to see the same from Mbappe and Haaland. They ignore fact that players like Messi and Ronaldo are not easily found in football history. Mbappe is a great player but requires him to play like either Messi or Ronaldo is too much.

Mbappe still needs time to become the player expected and I see a lack of teamwork which makes him a little bit difficult to score and even though in some previous games he missed too many chances to score.
Real Madrid is experiencing a player crisis due to injuries so it does affect the entire team but slowly they are starting to recover and now only one point is left from Barcelona because Real Madrid still has one game left that they have not played. Blaming Mbappe for not being able to score goals is also not right, because there are times when players will go through difficult times, plus the team is in an unstable condition and we hope they can continue to improve for the next match.

Real Madrid played last match against Getafe in which Real Madrid came away with victory. Bellingham and Mbappe have contributed a lot behind this victory of Real Madrid. Both of these goals came within minutes of Real Madrid scoring in the first half. Expectations were higher for Real Madrid, who led the opposition 2-0 in the first half, but Real Madrid let us down in the second half. 

However, getting 3 points in this match was very important for Real Madrid because they had already performed poorly in the previous matches and may have gone back a lot mentally. But the performance of this match will motivate them again to perform well in the next matches.

On one hand, Barcelona is doing badly, on the other hand, Real Madrid is doing well regularly in La Liga. Maybe Real Madrid's 15th match could be like this where Real Madrid overtakes Barcelona to occupy the number one position in the points table.

https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1863251785864925380

Mbappe played a role in this match against Getafe only by scoring one goal. With his one goal, Real Madrid won and managed to come to the second position in the point table. It is true that Mbappe can be more visible if Real Madrid tries his best in every match. But one of Mbappe's bad habits is that he plays excessively offside and does not play hard. Of course, these aspects need to be evaluated more so that Mbappe gets at least a chance to score goals in the next matches and has a reward for the team. If Mbappe can correct these mistakes in every match, he can score goals and make a good contribution for Real Madrid.
