La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[logfiles]

edit* btw, no Hazard and no Varane for Madrid tomorrow. (source) I have a bad feeling about this game, Bilbao only lost one game since the league returned  

I just hope tomorrow Big Benz turns up with his goal scoring boots. I still think we can win that match easily if kill of the game early. Obviously, Marcelo shouldn't start or else we might get exposed at the back since Ramos also likes being a Center forward sometimes

Hazard seems too often missing out of the game since he moved to madrid hmm ..

The next real madrid opponent is athletic bilbao, a tough opponent... they could losing points and it could be a real hard blow as for now it's only 5 matches left to lift the trophy.

And about the last night matches where Mallorca seems getting deeper and deeper to get relegated.. hammered 0-3 by Atletico Madrid, it's almost confirmed the 3 teams to get relegated are :

Espanyol
Leganes
Mallorca

Sayonara.

Bilbao is indeed a strong opponent.
They usually cut points from big teams when playing against them in the end of the season.
Real should win this if they want to win the trophy.

Villarreal vs Barcelona - Barca can’t afford to drop points today, they’re already 4 points behind Real. I have a bad feeling Barca will drop points & Real will pull further ahead in the title race by beating Bilbao.

Barca has a tough game tonight and they could easily drop more points but Real has a tough game as well and I am quite sure the time has come for someone to stop Real, Bilbao is tough nut to crack at home and I see this game as a big test for Real.

I am skipping both games betting wise since they could go in all directions. Maybe I'll put something on Villareal-Barca both to score market just before the game starts when I see Barca lineup or when the game starts and if there isn't goals in first 20 minutes.

yeah, i think that this is a turning point for Real, if they win, title goes to Madrid, otherwise momentum could change and that could be a slippy point, they do not have tough opponents till the end, but it is not the same when you have one, two or fours points above Barca, so it is very important

would think about timing, Real usually do not play in these mid-hours, two-o-clock, humid, almost 30 degrees, that can make a difference for them, since they are usually play in the evening, reflectors and everything, will be something completely strange, they are experienced, but... will skip betting definitely

It promises to be an interesting Sunday in La Liga. Both Real and Barcelona play away with strong opponents. Athletic Bilbao is dangerous for everyone on their own pitch. Hazard and Varane will not be able to play in Real Madrid, which is a big weakening for the team. Equally difficult task before Barcelona. Villareall is in high form lately and they still hope to overtake Sevilla and play in the Champions League next season. In both matches, no result will surprise me, so I will not bet.

[tokeweed]

Wtf...  Real is leading the table with a game to spare?  Trofo!  I shouldn't have paid you our '10k USD' side bet early!  Lolol.  

Don't worry mate I operate on fair level and you will get your money back if Real manages to keep their advantage. That was my intention from the moment you paid in case something like this happened and reason while the bet is still mentioned under neutral trust. Told you not to pay before final whistle is blown had a feeling there will be a twist before the end  

Lol.  Nah man it's paid, no worries.    But it was cool of you to offer tho.  Thanks.  But I can't accept.  

Til the next one.  

It is not about you, when the time comes I'll send you 20$. You will receive a nice PM asking for address of your choice. If you don't give me an address I'll send it to the same address you sent 10$ to me   After all you didn't offer me much choice as well when I said that fair thing would be to scrap the bet.

Can't wait for the next one.

Here's the thing...  I won't accept it too.  So we'll be sending each other 20 bucks back and forth like two idiots.  

But if you really insist, why not do a parlay with it when the time comes.  I could suggest which picks to make and you could tweak those picks if you like.  Deal?

And let's make a parlay that wins us enough money to buy us a couple of entries for the next EPL pool.

Real Madrid has really dropped form in scoring more than one goals in a match, they are currently playing a goalless draw in first half, they made a huge mistake in signing Hazard. Nigga is just chilling in Madrid due to frequent injuries, I'm hoping they play over 2.5 goals today

The match is tight. Bilbao has one of the meanest defense. About Hazard, no one could foresee him being on the sidelines for long periods. It's astounding given that he was doing well in the Premier League which is considered to be the Most physically demanding among the top 5 European leagues.
Maybe the style of play required at Real Madrid is affecting him somehow or the fitness team might also have a role to play.

I was worried when I saw Marcelo in the starting XI, but he gave us that great run that caused the pen, what a legend! And Ramos, week in and week out with the great performances. Crazy stuff 

7 points lead! It's up to Barcelona now. That game's gonna be a must watch for sure!

btw, huge meltdown on social media, salty ppl saying that this was a robbery lololol i'm laughing my ass off right now  #HalaMadrid

Quite a tight match for both team, of course. I think Bilbao have played a good match tonight (in my country time). They are quite tight in the defense area and it is enough to make Madrid overwhelmed scoring goal. Prioritizing defenses and counter attack is a good asset against big team and often this method can produce good result.

Madrid victory from Bilbao has made Madrid more comfortable in the first position of the Laliga standing and has made the point distance with Barcelona even further. While Barcelona behind 7 point and still have 1 match. If they go back to playing poorly tonight then I think Barcelona should give up the Laliga trophy for Madrid this season. Barcelona is inconsistency lately has made them potentially lose 2019-2020 Laliga.

[slaman29]

Oh, of course. There are many thing that are regrettable from the appearance of Barcelona in the last few matches. Failure to get full points has placed them second and that is not the final goal of recruiting a new coach. Really unexpected thing right ?
Its hard to say that Madrid will lose 4 more point in the rest of the match and its hard to say Barcelona will continue to win until the season end.

Never mind, I will not believe that Barcelona will win La-Liga for this season, the game is getting fewer and the distance points more difficult. Although Barcelona still has a chance to get full point for the rest of the match, but if Madrid continues to lead then all that will be in vain for Barcelona.

I'll never understand the decision the board took to recruit our current boss but clearly he's not there to make friends and he's got a big ego. Really unexpected. So much corruption and the club's interest is not at heart. The fans must be feeling so lost right now. And with all the other news going on, it's like even the press is out to get Barca.

Good luck to us tonight.

After today game, I already accept fact that Real won La Liga. It's very difficult to say it for me, hardcore Barca fan, but unfortunately it's true. Real have 4 game remaining - against Alaves, Granada, Villarreal and Leganes. It's hard to expect that they will lose twce against these opponents. And I have to admit that they probably more deserved title, they were more stable and less vulnerable than we, especially on away games...

[Captain Corporate]

 I think Barcelona should seriously start considering a rebuild, I know they have only a few young guys but moves like sending Arthur and getting older guy will not help them in the future. They should definitely try to get more u25 guys to the team and even if they want to play with the current team, with all the young players they acquire they could simply just make them play on cup games and in some league games after champions league. That way they would have both bench so that starters could relax but they would also have a bench that will eventually take starters place as well. If they dislike those young players, they could send them away and get new ones since they will have like 3-4 more years to try and achieve this.

[boltz]

Yea, this is my opinion too, Real Madrid are the current champions of La Liga and I'm happy for them but I'm not happy that they're getting a penalty every game...as this looks so shady from outside and you just think that they're getting them intentionally by the referees or by the enemy defenders so anyway I do hope we will still have some good action for 3 to 5th spot and fighting for UCL and Europa League.

VAR brought luck to Real Madrid for having legalized the penalty kick and it was good enough to do Ramos at the time of the penalty I was a little relieved because today's match won.

It will be better if Barcelona lose to Villarreal but for them this is still a chance because the difference of one point is very meaningful for Barcelona, but I think the opponent ahead is not strong enough for Real Madrid but enough to apply a good strategy for this match will continue to win.

Barcelona have chance if Real Madrid mess up two games at least. Looking at the fixtures I can accept Villareal one as tricky fixturebut rest of them are easy to handle for Real Madrid. Still there is a chance since Real Madrid are having some close games and I think there is still a chance. But can't be sure if Barcelona will also be able to keep up since they haven't been in form lately and also there are issues going around inside.

Madrid is 7 points ahead now with playing 1 more match than Barca. If Barca lose points tonights, I guess Barca will be out of the title competition officially. Madrid will get the title easily. I don't think Barca will lose points tonight although they are having really hard times for the last couple of matches.

Are you only happy if Barcelona gets a penalty in every game?
all that is valid because there is already a referee leading, however the referee's decision cannot be contested.

Real Madrid appears to have shown a consistent game for the rest of the season.
I'm quite happy that Real Madrid is getting stronger at the top of the table, hoping Barcelona lose against Villareal. #Hala Madrid 

[wozzek23]

If Barcelona drops any points today, its game over and league is Real Madrid's, I still think there is no way Madrid would lose the title even if Barcelona wins, there is only 4 games left with 12 points and 4 point difference which I doubt Madrid would lose that much points in this few games when they are so close to championship, but let's say they do and they are risking their title chances, with Barcelona drawing or losing today, its game over for sure.

That would make the point difference either 6 or 7 points, which means Real Madrid would have to lose 6 or 7 points in order to lose that chance, how could Madrid lose 2 games out of 4 remaining games, even someone who hates Madrid and a huge fan of Barcelona would know that Madrid is not that type of team. Barcelona had a chance, they were going to a title, they screwed it up.
