La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Pulsar77]

I didn’t expect such a result from Granada. Although not. I didn’t expect from Barcelona. It will be right. To miss the mediocre chance to gain a foothold in the first place before the decisive segment in La Liga ... I think that Barcelona should not become the champion this year. Let Sevilla be. They deserved it more than the first 3 teams.

Nobody expected this kind of a result I assume. After Barcelona ended first half 1-0 ahead, I'm sure that most of the people thought that they would crush Granada in the second half and win this. However, there was a shocking result after the final whistle. Last weeks will be really exciting. Sevilla also have a chance for the title but I see them having the least chance.

~snip~. And at the moment they seem to be a prime candidate for the Spanish championship. In the match against Granada, I bet on the home team's victory with a handicup (-1,5)

If they win they will be at the top of the temporary standings. Therefore Barcelona is definitely the seed to win, but I didn't expect that. I want the granada to make the surprise, at least they can hold Barca to a draw. It may be difficult but I hope it can happen. Statistically Barca is superior, the quality of Barca players is above Granada.

Celta Vigo - Levante
Celta Vigo seems to be in a slightly better shape, but the hosts do not have a stable disposition. Levante's recent results look tragic but do not reflect the team's performance. Levante is often just unlucky. In their last six direct matches, both teams have scored at least one goal. I expect a similar result in today's competition. My bet: both teams will score

[slaman29]

Lost money betting on a winner last night, should have gone for goal totals and BTTS which was what I originally planned for, but who can tell when these teams can suddenly go out and score 2 goals each right?

All eyes on Barca tonight. On a usual type of bet I go for Granada but how can I ever bet against my own team right?

I would never bet on Granada and think with your head and not with your heart and you can surely bet against your own team.This win is critical for Barcelona to get as it gives them the first place and then they have to manage it for the very few games remaining.Any other result except win tonight is really bad for Barcelona.

I just jinxed my own team:(

I did think the odds were too good, and felt worried. But I mean Messi even put us ahead at Half Time, and then we somehow allowed Granada the small team from the south, show us how it feels like.

Our game in hand is now gone, Real's draw and Atletico's loss were gifts, we gave them back:)

[ShowOff]

I know that some of you would be very happy about yesterday's Barcelona defeat vs Granada and I think it is only natural that you are a fan of the rest of the team in Laliga.

Although I am very disappointed with the way Barcelona finished the match, I still believe that everything will change if Barcelona can win all the remaining match. I think this is the last chance for Barcelona to win the title. It's just that in my opinion it depend on Real Madrid too because if Real Madrid wins all the match then Barcelona will also fail because their point are the same. Barcelona lost head to head with Real Madrid. Meanwhile, the top 4 team still have a chance of reaching the top at the moment and the title race will be very hot until the end of the season.

Both teams to score is possible, because even though the last few games Levante couldn't score a goal but their head to head has always been colored with goals from both teams. But I missed the bet on this match, because I am more interested in tomorrow's match between Elche - Atl. Madrid, it's going to be an interesting match I think, because both of them have a clear mission to at least achieve and that will make the game go exciting.

If they win all remaining matches they got it, but on their way to the top they have to beat Atlético Madrid. If they beat them they won't give it away anymore I think, but you first have to beat Atlético. Doesn't sound that easy. It's going to be hard fight.

Barcelona's hopes of shifting ATM are increasingly difficult...
Barcelona's defeat from Granada is certainly beyond predictions, btw I was lucky not to place a bet on that match. If barca wants to shift ATM from the peak, then barca has to beat ATM later.

This has been Barcelona all year, first they go "you can't drop us out of contention, we will win every possible game and fight for a title!!!" then just as they come close and nearly get to the top, they suddenly become "you know what we changed our minds, we  don't want to go to top" and lose games. This has happened a few times now, I really do not see how they could lose to Granada in such an important game, not like they are an inexperienced team, they are quite good and have always been good, but this season has been very very weird for them, they won so many games, and lost to much worse teams on the most unexpected moments.

It is really weird to see. In any case I think they still have a good chance, only 2 point difference, both Barcelona and Real have a chance to become champions, ATM couldn't hold the gap so they may go down, hell even Sevilla is now pretty close .

Anything can happen in football

Yep.
Just look at how Manchester City was able to win versus PSG the last week in the Champions League.

1 wrong long pass into a random goal and one mistake from the barrier when a bad free kick has been shot

Celta Vigo 2 - 0 Levante

It was a good victory for Mid-table celta vigo team who moved up to the top half of the league tonight; A bad defeat meanwhile for Levante who are only 8 points away from the drop zone; Can they beat the drop with 4 games to go in the league ?

If Real Madrid and Atletico lose tournament points at the most inopportune moment, then why would Barcelona not support this trend? The most important problem for Barcelona after losing the match to Granada is a red card for Koeman and a subsequent two-match suspension, which also affects the future important match with Atletico Madrid, where the fate of the title may be decided. The game situation in Barcelona is already unstable, and the absence of the head coach on the bench is also unlikely to contribute to greater stability.

That must be true because throughout 2020 Barcelona have never won against Atletico Madrid in the several competition they have participated in. Their first meeting in Laliga this season Barcelona lost to Atletico Madrid 1-0 and that's some proof that the Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid match is a very difficult match for Barcelona.

I think Barcelona will be able to beat Atletico Madrid if they don't play the ball for too long, because a lot of possession doesn't guarantee they can create lots of chance to score. Playing fast and effectively on the counter is the best way to score against Atletico Madrid in my opinion.

It is not surprising that Celta Vigo managed to beat Levante, because Celta Vigo's position is above Levante. Moreover, Levante's performance was
indeed very bad in La Liga, before facing Celta Vigo, Levante had experienced 3 successive defeats. And now Levante has suffered 4 defeats in a row,
if Levante's performance is not improved, then Levante could be threatened with entering the relegation area.

[Rengga Jati]

The game situation in Barcelona is already unstable, and the absence of the head coach on the bench is also unlikely to contribute to greater stability.

True, Barcelona plays very unstably even if there is Messi there. Of course, Messi can do nothing if other players perform badly. I don't understand what's happening in Barcelona but they are really in a bad situation now. If they are still in the same situation and not prepare well, they can lose 3 points again in the next match, against Valencia. They also will play away with no head coach, this can be more complicated for Barcelona.

[Mahdirakib]

Yeah true! I assume only few people placed a bet for Granada and most likely with few bucks since the odds were extremely disproportionate.. we are talking about odds between @16-18 Granada which was ridiculous and mean that almost everyone is backing Barca.
The real winners for today are bookies, by far >>>> then ATM, Real Madrid and why not Sevilla.

Indeed, the real winners were bookies and also those people who placed bets against Barcelona at higher odds. And we shouldn't put Sevilla out of the list. They haven't lost any of their last 8 games in LaLiga and also have continuous 5 winning streak. But they will play against Real Madrid on May 10th. Also Barcelona have a match against Atlético. Every match of top four teams will create a lot of excitement now. Hope ATM and RMA will be able to get victory on tomorrow's game.

[hulla]

I can't believe this.Barcelona even scored first and it looked like they had everything under control.I feel really bad for all the people who bet on Barcelona yesterday(including myself) and lost their money on a 1.10 odd.The lesson which I learned here is to never bet on a team who needs the win desperately.

That's the game of football for you (it never over until the final whistle is blown) and betting on a team that needs to win desperately doesn't matter if the team are well prepared but I come to a conclusion that the club we least expect will be the winner of this season game because all the top club seems not to be in shape.

The fate of Barcelona was very bad. Granada was not a strong opponent. Yet Barcelona lost. Barcelona has played great in the first half. Barcelona had a lot of good attacks. But the finishing was not good. Barcelona has more possession of the ball, but could not attack more than that. Moreover, they are is still weak in a counterattack.

[$crypto$]

I think this Atletico will win with Elche this will affect the points and also away from the real and Barcelona.
Tonight Real vs Osasuna maybe this is a bit of tension for real if they lose or draw it will be further away from Barca vs Valencia and this is really difficult where they have to chase points, LaLiga is now getting tougher where they have to be completely at stake to win.
Next week Real vs Sevilla is much tougher and Barca vs Atletico so these three big teams have ambitions where there must be absolute victory.

[Karartma1]

Atlético won't surrender soon, good for the Liga. Real and Barça can't make any more mistakes if they are to race for the title until the end.
Simeone knows that 2 points are not enough to be safe even considering that on May 8 they'll have to face Barcelona! It's gonna be super exciting to follow the last part of the season.
