La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

..................................

Some of the main players were actually not deliberately rested by ancelotti, because since before the match started ancelotti had targeted a big win in the match to secure their chances of reaching the final, but several players who were sick and not in good condition forced ancelotti to play some of their reserve players in the match, in my opinion with a 1-0 victory it only makes them have to work hard in the second leg later to secure tickets to the final, so I think it would be a big loss if they failed to do so when they have the chance to do in the first leg actually,  indeed they will play at the bernabeu later but do you think real Sociedad has no chance to surprise us later?
Come on guys, anything can happen and we still have to think realistically because even a weak team can still give Madrid a negative result at the bernabeu so far.

I just hope Real Madrid can perform well in the second leg when playing as the host. And in that match it was quite interesting, because one of the Real Madrid players who never missed every match, in the end Valverde had to be absent from this match so that his performance was maintained, because after this match Real Madrid will face a crucial match in La Liga against Real Betis. Moreover, at this time Real Betis is playing quite well, so Real Madrid cannot underestimate them and requires them to prepare their best squad in order to get 3 full points in the match.

With a fairly tight schedule, Real Madrid is required to be able to divide its focus and maintain the performance of its players well. because besides having to fight in the Copa Del Rey and La Liga title winners, they also have to fight in the UCL, Real Madrid will compete for a place with Atletico Madrid to be able to qualify for the next round.

Real Madrid had the opportunity to score more than one goal but they weren't luck enough, because many chances was wasted. Real Sociedad tried their best but when playing with a club stronger than you, your best wouldn't be good enough to defeat your opponents. Endrick only goal was able to make the difference between both sides.

Vinicius often got the chance but for some reason the player was not like last season and several failed to score. If every chance Vinic had could be utilized well, at least Madrid could have at least 3 scores. But I also have to admit Alejandro Remiro as Real Sociedad's goalkeeper was able to block every shot given by Madrid. Real Sociedad is very lucky to have a goalkeeper who is quite reflective and always ready even though he was under pressure several times but only managed to concede 1 score.

Real Madrid could have scored more goals in the match but their opponent Real Madrid's goalkeeper prevented Madrid's attack. Yes, it is true that more goals would not have been possible if Vinicius had not failed, however, since Real Madrid's performance was good, they won. Real Madrid's goalkeeper did not allow many goals, which resulted in a victory by only one goal. Since Real Madrid still has enough opportunities for the next match, Real Madrid will fight with more excitement in their next match to reach the final.

I watched the Real Sociedad vs Real Madrid game yesterday in the first leg of their Copa Del Rey Semi-final and if you ask me, I totally agree with your submission that the result of the game did not do fully represent the performances of both teams on the pitch. Real Madrid were undoubtedly the dominant team and should've scored more goals in that game. Real Sociedad on their own was also showing strong mentality of team who weren't intimidated by the quality of players in Real Madrid which made them escape being thrashed. Despite Real Madrid's failure to win with wide margin, I strongly believe that they'll progress to the final when they host their opponents in the second leg of the tie

Endrick only goal was able to make the difference between both sides.

However, Real Madrid's tactics in arranging players for the Copa Del Rey competition are quite good so that in the next match in the competition, Real Madrid will probably focus more on scoring more goals even though a draw can take them to the final round of the Copa Del Rey this season. And when they are in the final, I am sure Real Madrid will play more seriously and score as many goals as they can in order to win the trophy.

There were several players rested in the match, and maybe Ancelotti also did not target a big win in the first leg with an away game like that. Because if for example the result is a draw, then of course Real Madrid will turn things around with a big win in the second leg later at the Santiago Bernabéu. But yes, because in reality Real Madrid managed to win even though it was only with a narrow score of 0-1, then Real Madrid no longer needs to target a big win for second leg later.

But even so, I personally believe that Real Madrid will still win and will not only rely on a draw in the second leg later, winning 1-0 or 2-0 is still  a good result for the second leg later.
But regarding the match in the first leg, I am still quite lucky with odds @2.03 for Real Madrid's victory.

Real Madrid was not in their best form last when they face Real Sociedad, the game was totally out of coverage for them, they managed to secure a goal that make them different on the scoresheet. Endrick was distinctive last night,  he scored the goal that made the difference. Real Madrid will hosts Real Sociedad in the second leg, let's see if they will be competent at Santiago Bernabéu, the home ground where elite teams are humiliated. Real Sociedad targeted a point when they clash with Los Blancos, but uneven result was the case. The hosts knows what was involved and never relented, they outplay Real Madrid at home, this is a sign for Erreala to have a win in the consecutive second leg.

[Promocodeudo]

It's been long I last enjoyed a game that's involving two Spanish clubs apart from Real Madrid like I did last night when Barcelona hosted Atletico Madrid. It was an epic game that I think was entertaining to everyone who watched it. Just like you said, Atletico Madrid started on the front foot before Barcelona came back and took the lead but just when I thought it was going to be a victory for Barcelona, Diego Simeone's men scored two late goals to equalize. Personally I feel Barcelona missed their chance of reaching the final of this season's Copa Del Rey when they allowed Atletico Madrid to draw that game because I see Atletico the second leg at the Civitas Metropolitano stadium.

That match was a test of superiority and I think the event proved that both teams are really doing great recently, the equalizing goal by Athletico Madrid shows that they match was meant to be a draw, yea no doubt the match was a kind of interesting.
Athketico madrid surprised me this season, they came with a different game pattern this season as such they are playing like hungry lions making sure that they are not being defeated by either of the major teams in the Spanish laliga.
We shouldn't be very sure of who wins in the second leg of that game, though Barcelona wouldve done everything possible to win that match but the thing is, they encountered a stubborn team that's not ready to create such chances for them to capitalize on, let's not be too sure of  events unseen or undecided, though it may also happen as you but making conclusions in football without knowing the outcome may be unrealistic or disappointing at the end.

Even though Real Madrid won the match, I couldn't enjoy the game. My prediction was that Real Madrid was going to win the match or they had a high chance of winning. But I was waiting for that match just to see by how big a margin Real Madrid could win. But Real Madrid scored only 1 goal and that was the only goal of the match. I thought Real Madrid might score 3 or more goals.

I was a bit surprised by Real Sociedad's performance. They considered Real Madrid only as an opponent team. They didn't play scared on the field thinking Real Madrid was something extra. Maybe Real Sociedad can do something unexpected in the 2nd leg.

[tiCeR]

No I think it is more about Real Sociedad's attack being weak as they have one of the worst attacks in La Liga. Real Madrid did a simple job here and if Real Sociedad would have had more force in their attacks and more cleverness, then this game could have ended in a different way. The statistics were about equal, but this is Real Madrid eventually. They score the goal they need and then barely put in any effort beyond what is needed to take this win with a single goal. All of the players have in the back of their heads what's coming in the next weeks, which is why some minimalism is going on here.

Toobad for Real Sociedad though because being 1-0 and having to turn this around in the Bernabeu seems unlikely, but still it is only one goal, which may keep their hopes afloat.

Real Sociedad relied on their defense, but against an attack like Real's, it is very difficult to do. After the goal conceded, it was difficult to change strategy, although they had enough time, but they could not do anything, so Real gets an important victory. Ancelotti made a small rotation for this match, but this did not help Sociedad either, although they had several good attacks, Real's defense played this match perfectly.

You do need a goal of course, especially when you are Real Sociedad and you play at home. If you don't score in the first game, the probability that it ends with a draw and you still are well situated for the second game is too low. Real Madrid wanted this one goal and anything but a magical night for Real Sociedad will inevitably lead to losing the second game or at least not winning it, which is still sufficient for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid wasted many chances, but the most important thing is that they should win the match, which they managed to do. However, Real Sociedad also tried their best; even though they are not as strong as Real Madrid, they had some opportunities that they would have turned into goals, but I think luck wasn’t on their side.

Although you are right, we can’t see their performances and what they have done because we already know that Real Madrid is the favourite in the match, and our focus is already on Real Madrid to win. If not, if you look at how the match went, Real Sociedad also tried.

in the Copa del Rey Real Madrid finally won against Real Sociedad in the 1st leg with a narrow score of 0-1 of course in this match Endrick became the hero for Real Madrid and honestly I am amazed by him at his young age but he has managed to bring Real Madrid to win in the 1st leg and of course now Real Madrid already has the capital for the 2nd leg later.

but in that match I saw Real Sociedad's defense was also good so it was very difficult and of course for the 2nd leg later in the Copa del Rey Ancelotti must be careful because Real Sociedad's strength certainly cannot be underestimated. but now of course Real Madrid must prepare its strength to be able to win in the next match in Laliga against Betis and of course in this match against Betis of course Real Madrid must win in order to add points and of course I remember when Betis beat Real Sociedad with a score of 3-0 so of course the match in my opinion will be exciting, what do you all think who will win?

In this match Endrick proved his ability, the Brazilian player has enormous potential in the world of football, even at a very young age already in one of the best clubs in the world, it is an extraordinary achievement.

In the next match, Betis players must be training very hard to prepare for this match, with consecutive wins in the last 2 matches it will increase the confidence of the players to face the impossible, besides that Real Madrid must also be vigilant, anything can happen on the field, despite having many expensive and talented players, they must still try their best to win the match.

But I looked at Sociedad's match to make a pretty good match even though they lost but they did the maximum stares they were. The second leg is the show to be awaited, aggregate 1-0 is very easy to pursue for Sociedad, a very simple strategy input goal early and then survive with hard as calm until the end of the match and it is enough to secure victory to reach the final round,

[el kaka22]

While I agree that CUP matters too, these teams are fighting for the league title, so playing here was more of an after thought. That is why players like Arda Guler and Endrick played, sure Vini was there too, and some other main starters, but they also rested some others too.

Sociedad almost did win, they had many chances to score and failed but that is because they didn't face the best Real Madrid team that could be, and that means something, if Real Madrid played with their best players, then they would have lost big time. And that is not even putting the injured into the discussion, obviously those are gone for all other games too. In the end, we are going to see Real Madrid reach finals easily, and then we will see them at their best.

Real Sociedad is trying to draw the match. If the match was drawn I would say it is a good result for Real Sociedad. But Sociedad lost their home match. Now the possibility of Real Madrid beating Madrid in their home match is very low. Real Madrid is a very strong team in home matches. So in the second leg match also I think Real Sociedad is more likely to lose. Qualifying for the Copa del Rey final is not a difficult task for Real Madrid now.

Real Sociedad's performance last night was not only good enough, but very good, I must admit, they were able to match Madrid in terms of overall statistics but they were unlucky to end the match with the desired result. The second leg is held at the Bernabeu, it will not be easy for them to get a win especially because Real Madrid also want this trophy and I am pretty sure Ancelotti will field his best squad there to secure a ticket to the final, but I also can't say a 100% win for Madrid considering their aggregate is still thin so it is possible for Sociedad to give a surprise.

From the game we can appreciate the best face of Real Sociedad. We are able to observe how they were able to pair competitors which are of high experience and standard. The players are highly determined as they exhibit a good performance for the entire duration of the match. Even in this case of course, the effort made by the two teams cannot be considered anything but worthy of respect, given that they are not the final victors. Nonetheless, this second leg match is a shielded position for both Madrid and Ajax because it is still open. Sociedad has the chances to produce a shock which can be only possible if they are capable of grabbing the opportunities available. The later match will be a challenge, and it is expected that there will be a tight competition up to the last period. They can be some of the positive factors that may produce a different outcome in the next meeting.

Real Sociedad tried their best but when playing with a club stronger than you, your best wouldn't be good enough to defeat your opponents. Endrick only goal was able to make the difference between both sides.

Vinicius often got the chance but for some reason the player was not like last season and several failed to score. If every chance Vinic had could be utilized well, at least Madrid could have at least 3 scores. But I also have to admit Alejandro Remiro as Real Sociedad's goalkeeper was able to block every shot given by Madrid. Real Sociedad is very lucky to have a goalkeeper who is quite reflective and always ready even though he was under pressure several times but only managed to concede 1 score.

You cant expect a player to be proactive in every season. Some seasons another player from the team gets to take the lead and more attention is giving to that particular player to make a difference. Last season was Vinicius but this season the attention is being diverted to Mbape. However that does not stop Vinicius to utilize every goal opportunity he has. While watching the game. The goals he missed well there are some i didn't expect Vinicius to miss. And funny enough if it was Mbape he would have score at least 2 of that opportunities.

Real Sociedad is very lucky to have a goalkeeper who is quite reflective and always ready even though he was under pressure several times but only managed to concede 1 score.

This is Vini's weakness that Ancelotti must fix, Vini is often selfish and often does not take advantage of opportunities effectively even though if not like that, maybe Real Madrid could win by more than one goal. Vini was indeed given the freedom by Ancelotti to outwit the opponent but sometimes the freedom given by the coach did not produce good results, so I think he needs to be reprimanded.

However, there was something interesting about Vini in the match because he was the first time captain and he wore the captain's armband well. He was responsible and could defend his teammates. Then his emotions were also stable and he could also reduce excessive protests to the referee.

Endrick in this match became a hero, at the age of 18 he has now scored 6 goals for Real Madrid in his first season in Europe and Endrick has now also scored goals in three different competitions, namely the UCL League, LaLiga, and Copa del Rey. Of course his prospects at Real Madrid are very bright because even though his playing minutes are minimal, he was able to score 6 goals. That's extraordinary.

Many are praising Real Sociedad's performance. And they think that Real Sociedad has a chance to qualify for the final. Real Sociedad has a small chance. Since football is always unpredictable. However, if we compare the overall condition of the two teams, I would say that Real Madrid will easily qualify for the final.

Real Madrid won in Real Sociedad's home match. Although Real Madrid could not win by a large margin, Madrid won. I do not think that Real Sociedad will win by a large margin of 2 goals in Madrid's home match. Ancelotti is a very experienced coach. So he will try to draw the second leg match. I would say that Madrid has a high chance of winning in the second leg match, but if Real Sociedad plays very well, the match will be drawn.

[Uruhara]

Real Madrid could have scored more goals in the match but their opponent Real Madrid's goalkeeper prevented Madrid's attack. Yes, it is true that more goals would not have been possible if Vinicius had not failed, however, since Real Madrid's performance was good, they won. Real Madrid's goalkeeper did not allow many goals, which resulted in a victory by only one goal. Since Real Madrid still has enough opportunities for the next match, Real Madrid will fight with more excitement in their next match to reach the final.

Even though Real Madrid was not able to score many goals in that match. But I still appreciate the victory they got. Because after all, Real Madrid didn't actually play with their full strength in that match. But the result is still that Real Madrid won the match. And we also have to admit that Real Sociedad's defense is also quite good. Even though there were many opportunities that were wasted in this match. But that's normal because Real Sociedad's goalkeeper is also one of the factors why Real Madrid has difficulty scoring goals. Maybe if Real Madrid played with their full strength, that is, some of the main players were not injured, then Real Madrid might win by a lot of goals. But unfortunately some Real Madrid players are not in their best condition at the moment. Some are still recovering from injuries and are not yet able to play optimally.

If the competition to be at the top of the standings with the same points as Barcelona, ​​then it is very important to win even though only 1 goal.
Incidentally the winning of Real Madrid over Real Sociedad yesterday at the Copa del Rey semi -final. 1 away goal will be capital when Real Sociedad travels to the Santiago Bernabeu. If yesterday Real Madrid is not in his best performance can still win in the away match, what if Real Madrid are in their best performance?
