La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Daniel91]

Don't worry, regardless of the current good results, Barca has no chance of winning the Spanish championship and they are not among the first two favorites in the Champions League 
Honestly, it would have been better for the club's management if they had just let Messi go, made good money on him and refreshed the team with new players.
Now they have no money for new players, have dirty war for the new club president  and are in serious financial trouble, and they have a very dissatisfied and frustrated Messi in the team.
A recipe for the perfect disaster this season 

They tried to keep Messi in the club one more season and thought it can help them to rebuild the team while they can still have acceptable results. I believed it is a bad decision. A season with a spot to Champions League and no titles in La Liga, Champions League can not be considered as good.

If they made a decision you said, they would have a budget for transfer and the team rebuilding progress might be faster. Without Messi, young players will feel more confident to show up their skills and more freely to make their decisions, pass or shoot in matches.

The club fell to another drama, contract detail leak and it is another bad drama after the burofax. 

Barcelona has been in chaos for a long time, there is currently a struggle for a new club president, financial losses are huge, confidential information leaks on all sides, mutual relationships are very bad and Messi is most likely leaving at the end of this season.
Barcelona urgently needs a fresh start or this could be the beginning of a long process of club decline and setback.
I think they should finally give a chance to young players from their football academy and stop buying expensive players who don’t give enough for the huge salary they get.

Financial become the issues for Barcelona where they try to keep save Countinho until this season to make Barcelona not have tp pay Liverpool, I think bad system financial how transfer make by Barcelona, always buy failed player with higher price and they have sell them with lower price, look what happen with Luis Suarez free transfer player and become top corer for Atletico Madrid right now.

You are right. Barcelona buys players at high prices but transfers at very low cost or almost free at the time of transfer. They need to be better monitored in the financial aspects. If the club's income from sponsors decreases, the club will face more financial crises for the transfer of players at lower prices.

Barcelona 5 - 1 Alaves

does anyone still doubt that barcelona without Messi will not be the same barcelona? yesterday barcelona played very well, just like in the old days and in my opinion messi should not leave barcelona, he should retire in barcelona, i would still be very happy if real madrid had not sold Di Maria and cristiano ronaldo and so many other good players...

Today I hope that Real Madrid can win

Barcelona 5 - 1 Alaves

Barcelona did the thing I expected and got a very solid win against Alaves. This could be one of their easiest game of the season and they've freshened their self-confidence again. But it is still not enough for moving up to the 1st place because Atletico also won again after getting a draw against Celta. As long as Atletico go like this, Barcelona's effort will be in vain. But I appreciate Barça's great effort so much.

Barcelona 5 - 1 Alaves

Nobody doubts Barcelona at all; the truth is just that they are not a good team any more; they defeat Alaves by 5 goals which was a good performance; but they also lost away to Sevilla by 2 goals in a very terrible performance; I think the tie against PSG would tell us more about how improved Barcelona has gotten; but for now its stil a mediocre team

Real Madrid will face Valencia tonight; what Madrid team do you think will show up today ?

[boltz]

My predictions for today in LaLiga :

Real Madrd - Valencia - Both to score and Real to win

Levante - Osasuna = Levante to score 2nd half

Villareal - Betis = Over 2.5 goals



Why did I picked this games ? well because all the teams are looking to get 3 points this weekend so this could mean a lot of goals.

I am very sure you are a neutral to both Barcelona and Real Madrid, well I think if di Maria had not gone then he won't have still been in Real Madrid till now and if he had he won't be as essential, I think Barcelona played great yesterday and as it has been for years Messi performance was epic, there are many things Messi would consider before committing his future to Barcelona or and other club, and his friends are not helping his stay at Barcelona in the future, with many wooing him to switch over. But they -Barcelona- has Messi for now and that's good for them.

I don't believe Messi will retire in Barcelona after the club leaked his contract and broke the secret deal. Messi lost his faith in the club, with results in leagues and the decreasing competitive ability of the club. The late bounce back of the club might not be enough to keep Messi in Nou Camp.

I see Messi looks to be more happily in recent months and I believed he would change his mind. But the contract leak would destroy the small change to attract Messi and keep him staying there.

Financial become the issues for Barcelona where they try to keep save Countinho until this season to make Barcelona not have tp pay Liverpool, I think bad system financial how transfer make by Barcelona, always buy failed player with higher price and they have sell them with lower price, look what happen with Luis Suarez free transfer player and become top corer for Atletico Madrid right now.

Anyone who has played Football Manager knows the fact that when a big club wants a player they have to pay a lot more than anyone else. Let's say you are Barcelona, and there is a good player in Valencia, and you want to buy that player, Valencia will ask minimum 30 million euros for him, but let's say same exact player is not wanted by Barcelona, but wanted by Bilbao, they will ask 15-20 million for the same player.

It is always harder to be a bigger club because everyone thinks you get paid a ton of money anyway so you should be paying more for the same player than any other team. Which means if you make few bad transfers, you are going to overpay for bad players and it is going to ruin your finances. Hell I had this problem in a GAME, I can totally understand how it could be possible for them in real life, of course they will recover from this financial situation, but I think it is also quite understandable.

[acquafredda]

The Colchoneros will have to catch up the game with Levante on Wednesday 17th: it is a very important game because it can give them another potential three points to better consolidate their first position. They need to keep their concentration because there are a lot of very challenging games coming up next: if they are to maintain their current performance, Atlético can really be this year's revelation!

[Expecto]

..., in my opinion messi should not leave barcelona, he should retire in barcelona, ...

I don't give any chance for Messi to stay at Barcelona this summer. He is really decisive in leaving the team and it seems very likely that we can see him at PSG or Manchester City in the next season. If Barcelona manage to be the champions in La Liga this year, he might think about staying. But I don't give a chance for Barcelona for the championship as Atletico really dominate the league now.

It's true, Barcelona still look like an ordinary team even though you know that they are the most prolific team this season when it comes to scoring in Laliga. LOL
You just seem like someone who doesn't like Barcelona so whatever is fact has nothing to do with you at the moment.
What would you say if Barcelona could beat PSG ?

Lemme answer this: they were lucky Neimar and Di Maria ain't playing in the first leg (/joke)
Until now the favourite teams are winning. Real Madrid won 2 - 0 vs Sevilla and Real Sociedad won too with 1 goal.

[ShowOff]

After Real Madrid won today's match vs Sevilla, I hope Barcelona can do the same. This will keep them on the right track in hope of putting a little pressure on Atletico Madrid. Even though Barcelona later won the match, there wouldn't be much change in the table.

Real Madrid and Barcelona will still compete until the end even though Atletico Madrid are champions. A busy schedule await Atletico against Levante, I hope they will have a slightly bad night of the match.

Maybe it will remain as usual. They deserve it. Just calm down.

Real Madrid got a very clear 2-0 win against Valencia today. They played so dominantly and it reminded me that the previous game vs Valencia which Real Madrid lost 4-1 despite playing better. They took their revenge for sure.    Kroos was in a good mood and he scored 1 goal and made 1 assist.

A very rare solid performance from Real Madrid lol, as they dominated proceedings and deservedly won at home to Valencia; this is a result that Zidane would be proud of ahead of the champions league knock out rounds. A solid performance to build on

With this win Real Madrid back to 2nd place which had previously been taken by Barcelona. In the 60th minute, Real Madrid also scored the third goal, unfortunately, the goal scored by Mendy was disallowed by the referee because he was considered offside.

In this match, Real Madrid played really well, and I think if they have played a little more calmly then there will be a third and a fourth goal.

Madrid won convincingly today against Valencia. I was hopeful they'd win and they did so comfortably.  Winning today means they've moved closer to Atlético that also won their game on saturday. Just ~5 points left to get on par with Atlético but that gap can be extended further if Atlético win their two outstanding matches. Madrid is finally looking like they can go up against the title leaders and compete for the title which is something I love to see in the la liga.

Real Madrid haven't been making any mistakes for 3 matches. I wonder whether they will keep it up. Barcelona really seem like they won't lose any game. They are insanely good now and I am having difficulties in predicting which game they will really struggle and lose points. Atletico are like always and they are still the best team in La Liga in this season.
