La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[kassex]

I doubt Real Madrid will get 3 points. They might end that match with 1 point.

Barcelona might win against Atletico Madrid and take a first position on the table. Sounds too optimistic for Barcelona and Messi.

I think Barcelona and Real Madrid will win in this round and Atletico will drop to 3rd place in the standings. I do not believe that Atletico will be able to beat Barcelona. Of course, there may be a draw, but this is perhaps the only thing that Atletico Madrid can count on. In this case, Real Madrid will be able to take the lead.

Real Madrid needs to win Sevilla. And it will be quite difficult. Real Madrid's current form is too weak. A difficult match against Chelsea I think will play a role. I suppose that both matches will end in a draw.

[hahay]

Has anyone bet on Real Sociedad, will this be a win for him?
These two teams have the same target to get 3 points, but if I look at Elche's away match it seems impossible to win and draw. Elche is very weak when playing away and it is not surprising that Elche's away record is the worst in the standings.

 I dont think Barcelona will be able to beat Atletico Madrid in their next match, although the match will be tough. Atletico Madrid won their last match against Barcelona with a 1-0 victory. If Atletico lose to Barcelona, they with also lose their position on the table and risk their chances of winning the League this season. While Barcelona topping the League depends on winning the match.

[hulla]

If could remember correctly Barcelona usually has the finishing problem at some point ever since the year 2009 and I think they need to find a good solution to it this time. I don't know if a lot of people notice this but the problem seems not to surface when Guardiola was Barcelona's manager because he manage the club very.

barcelona have not been doing well this season, but I think the mistakes are in the lack of better players to score goals and in defense, the current barcelona is extremely dependent on messi, they should have more players who could make the team have better results without having 100% dependence on messi.

My preview for the next game against Atletico Is that will be a game where barcelona has a great chance of winning if they can have a good defense, the Atletico seems to me to have difficulties in winning top teams in the last games, so I think barcelona unfortunately will win because as I am a fan of real madrid i think the most advantageous result for real madrid would be that this game of barcelona against atletico ended in a draw

Messi is out of this world. Free kicks are like penalties for him. Completely different from Ronaldo who just fires a bullet without really targeting. Of course he has a great technique, but Messi is from another planet. The precision is unprecedented and will probably forever be impossible to achieve for another player.

If Sevilla wins this next play day is going to be absolutely nuts. Pure excitement. Real Madrid must hope for a tie between the two as they win the direct comparison with Atlético.

@mv1986, you can say, Messi is out of this world but I will its hard work and purpose that make him who he was today because he was once among the upcoming professional footballer that wishes to be like Maradona but he later beat his record. However, I won't support or believe it impossible for another player to achieve what he achieved.
@Slow death, I understand the stance about the upcoming game between Barcelona and Atletico but I don't think it will be an easy win game for the two club though.

It seemed that this was a good opportunity to take advantage of the match. Real Sociedad are struggling to stay in 5th place which will lead them to the Europa League next season. Elche looks very weak and they will be in the relegation zone if they lose. Sociedad will win and it would be very risky if they chose Elche today.

@Slow death, I understand the stance about the upcoming game between Barcelona and Atletico but I don't think it will be an easy win game for the two club though.

Everyone will say that it will be a tough match and I will think the same as them. Atletico Madrid dream of breaking Barcelona and Real Madrid's dominance in Laliga by securing the titles they might still get. There is no way for them to make that dream come true if it isn't victory that guarantees it.

I think Barcelona has what it takes to beat Atletico Madrid, everything is on the table for both teams, if Atletico manages a win over Barcelona then I think it's league over for Barcelona, and if Barcelona wins Atletico might just kiss their chances good bye, so the strength of the two teams -barcelona and Atletico Madrid- will be a focal point in this match, but after all is said and done I think Barcelona will take away the three points.

You completely understand my point when I said the Barcelona game against Atletico Madrid will be difficult to win match.
1) Atletico is just leading Barcelona and Madrid with just two point any loss will cost them the number one spot.
2) They also want to dominant LaLiga just like Barca and Madrid.

[kawetsriyanto]

Barcelona might win against Atletico Madrid and take a first position on the table.

Sounds like a dream of a Barca fan! 
You even underestimate Atletico Madrid. 
Well, do you think Sevilla is a stronger team than Atletico Madrid? lol
Sorry mate, Atletico Madrid should be stronger than Sevilla. You have no reason to claim Real Madrid will against a stronger team than Barcelona has. In fact, the Real Madrid chance is higher than Barcelona. I suspect after the match against Atletico Madrid, Barcelona has no chance anymore for the title.
Let's see which team to get 1 point or even 0 point, then.

[boltz]

I think the same. Barcelona might snatch the game from ATL.Madrid and those 3 points just beneath their nose and they won't know how they lost. Why I do believe this ? ATL.Madrid always had choke moments when they need to win more ...remember 2 finals in UCL , remember 2 years ago when they had a great season but they choked towards the final so I think they will choke again. If they somehow manage to win against Barcelona, I still can't see them champions.

Also Suarez was 90% Juventus player in the summer so only a matter of a test made him to switch things and move to ATL.Madrid so it was not his choice to go there ...he really had no other options left and this is why I won't count on Suarez to deliver 100% against Barca.

Elche looks very weak and they will be in the relegation zone if they lose. Sociedad will win and it would be very risky if they chose Elche today.

Right, this is a good moment for Real Sociedad because after all the position is still not safe and it is still very possible to get out of the Europa League zone and therefore, Sociedad must win this match if they still want their position to be safe. But I don't understand why Real Sociedad still can't score a goal so far when Elche is playing with only 10 players from the 11th minute.

[Spack17]

I don't see Bilbao at their best but indeed, Bilbao sometimes surprises in some games. But yes, Sevilla's defeat still makes me disappointed, how do Sevilla play with the ball possession but still lose. Well it was a loss, but at least 2-1 or at least scoring a goal, I also don't think Bilbao have the perfect defense, but looking at this result it looks like Sevilla need a more productive and creative attacker to have a better finisher.

I was also disappointed like you. Sevilla are also in the race for the championship. They actually played much better than Bilbao in general. However, Sevilla were so bad when it comes to finding the target. 3 out of 18 shots... Now, they might have problems on focusing on the Real Madrid match next week. But still I believe that it will be a close and tough match.

Who would have thought Sevilla drops some points? What strikes me the most is that we all seem to underestimate the power of top players like Messi.

He is a guy who scores 30 goals a season, 5 to 8 free kicks, and 7 to 10 scorer points. For every other player we would fall on our knees and say the player is brilliant, but we don't for Messi when he scores 30+ a season. Is that right?

Yes, you are right. The reason must be that we are already accustomed to see his marvelous performance every year.    He carries his team every season to as good place as possible. He plays a big role in this season also. If he leaves the team this summer, it will be very bad for Barcelona for sure. They will lose their most important player.

[Mahdirakib]

It seems that the match between Real Sociedad vs Elche is very difficult to predict, because Real Sociedad and Elche both want victory.
Elche wants to escape from the relegation zone, while Real Sociedad wants them to stay in the UEL zone. Based on the search at Asiabookie, I believe the score will be 2 goals different from the victory of Real Sociedad. ~

Some of us just over thought about the match, the game has ended as it should be. Real Sociedad fully dominated in the match against Elche and got the victory with two goals. Although they scored the second goal at the near end of the game, but it doesn't matter. Real Sociedad made their position strong to get the chance in next Europa League season.

[judas]

Real Sociedad ? - ? Elche Today in the spanish la liga; Its another Relegation clash lol. With 4 games to go, Valencia, Getafe, Vallalodid, Alaves, Huesca, Elche and even Eibar are still unsure who the 3 to get relegated to the la liga secunda will be as they are just 3 points away (a defeat) from one another.

Elche must win away at Sociedad (who has cemented their position in Europe next season); It would be an interesting tie, but i am expecting Real Soceidad to win 3-1 goals. Huesca, Alaves and Eibar and also predicted to get relegated; what are your predictions ?

Real Sociedad 2 - 0 Elche

Real Sociedad 3 - 1 Elche

If you bet on the 2-0 score, then congrats man!    Real Sociedad simply destroyed their opponent in this game. But Elche got a red card which caused them to be helpless also. They had only one shot in the whole game and it was not on goal.

Almost no win or lose  , I chose handicap -1 for Real Sociedad, the match was almost 1-0. But in the end Mikel Oyarzabal scored in injury time.

I am a little confused about why Real Sociedad As if they don't want to get a win.

they have completely controlled the game with 74% of the ball and were given a red card to Raul Gutti (Elche Player) in the 11th minute. But in the end it didn't matter, because I won my bet. (Congrats For Me) 

[Renampun]

I skipped the bet on this match because I wasn't that interested in Sociedad. btw, Sociedad managed to win with a score of 2-0...

I dont think Barcelona will be able to beat Atletico Madrid in their next match, although the match will be tough. Atletico Madrid won their last match against Barcelona with a 1-0 victory. If Atletico lose to Barcelona, they with also lose their position on the table and risk their chances of winning the League this season. While Barcelona topping the League depends on winning the match.

this is a decisive match for ATM and Barca, I do not rule out the potential possibilities that could occur. Barca must be very ambitious to take revenge for the defeat from ATM in the last match. Camp Nou still has great power to push Barca to their best performance. if ATM wins, then the score will be 1-0 or 2-1.

Barcelona will avenge their previous defeat at Camp Nou, I believe. And I guess Barcelona will win 2-1. Against Real Madrid, Barcelona took possession of the ball in the first half and they played very attacking in the second half. If they apply the same strategy in today's match, they will not win. They have to play somewhat attacking football from the start of the match.

Let's see which team to get 1 point or even 0 point, then.

I am neither a fan of Barcelona nor underestimate Atletico Madrid. I think the chance for both teams are 50/50 to win this match but I don't think the match will end with a draw. One team will take advantage of opponent mistakes and get three points.

Atletico Madrid have more options for this match but Barcelona must win. With this approach, attacking to win, if their defensive system won't work well and Atletico Madrid can do counter attacks well, Barcelona will lose the match.

I think the same. Barcelona might snatch the game from ATL.Madrid and those 3 points just beneath their nose and they won't know how they lost. Why I do believe this ? ATL.Madrid always had choke moments when they need to win more ...remember 2 finals in UCL , remember 2 years ago when they had a great season but they choked towards the final so I think they will choke again. If they somehow manage to win against Barcelona, I still can't see them champions.

Exactly but this season is strange because all teams are not strong enough to dominate the league. If you say you can't see A Madrid as champions, I don't know Barcelona or Real Madrid should be or deserve to be champions.

Also Suarez was 90% Juventus player in the summer so only a matter of a test made him to switch things and move to ATL.Madrid so it was not his choice to go there ...he really had no other options left and this is why I won't count on Suarez to deliver 100% against Barca.

Suarez will have mixed feeling in the match but I think he is professionally enough to score goals if his team mates give him great passes.

Barcelona will avenge their previous defeat at Camp Nou, I believe. And I guess Barcelona will win 2-1. Against Real Madrid, Barcelona took possession of the ball in the first half and they played very attacking in the second half. If they apply the same strategy in today's match, they will not win. They have to play somewhat attacking football from the start of the match.

It is uncertain match. I hope Barcelona will win and increase their chance to win La Liga. Because I hope that Messi will end his career in Nou Camp. He deserves such ending. I am not a fan of Messi or Barcelona but as a football fan, I hope it will be the ending for Messi in Barcelona, not any other club.

[slaman29]

Crunch time everyone! I'm just a little bit nervous that we seem like such big favorites against Atletico. Yes they haven't won for such a long stretch of time here but this is the first time they come as leaders and first time with Suarez, so I feel like the value bet is actually on Simeone's team.

As long as it is fun I will accept the result:)

[dwminer1]

It seems to me that today we will witness a match for the Spanish championship. If Atletico beats Barcelona, he will probably secure the title. If Barcelona wins and Real Madrid lose points in tomorrow's game against Sevilla, I believe that the team from the Catalan capital will not miss their chance for the championship this season. I bet the hosts will win in this match.

@dwminer1 as a Real Madrid fan I’m rooting for a draw or a loss for Atletico, but as a football fan I have to admit that Atletico Madrid deserves to win the league title. Also a lot will depend on how Messi performs today, because if he’s in the mood to win the match for Barcelona then no defender can stop him.
