La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[DU18]

In 4 matches Real Madrid was unbeaten and managed to score 13 goals, this means that Real Madrid's performance is very good and also
very productive. Looking at the data, Real Madrid should not need Mbappe anymore, but until now Mbappe has not extended his contract with PSG.
This means that next year Mbappe can be obtained for free, so if Real Madrid want to get Mbappe there is no need to spend money to buy it.
Because with Real Madrid's already good performance, the need to bring in Mbappe is no longer urgent.

At the same time, Real missed 6 goals - this is more than all other teams behind until Osasuna, which is in 11th place and also conceded 6 goals. Therefore, I would not say that Real's game is reliable and does not need to be strengthened, if in a duel with a strong opponent the attack will be less effective and the defense will play as it is playing now, then Real will lose.

although madrid haven't lost this season, but the number of goals conceded means the madrid defense is in a pretty dangerous state at the moment, and in their 4 matches, madrid have conceded 6 goals so far, in my opinion, this problem must be addressed by carlo ancellotti before met with big clubs that do have a dangerous attacking line in La Liga such as Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, so far Real Madrid have new met teams that are currently at the bottom of the table such as Levante, Real Betis, Deportivo Alaves and finally Celta Vigo, so this cannot be used as a benchmark if Madrid is better this season.

Real Madrid shows that no matter who they have on their roster, they do end up winning, they are just that type of a great team. I understand that it doesn't require a Ronaldo and hazard and bale or whatever to make them awesome, they could sell every single player they have right now and rebuild a whole new team and they would still be real Madrid, that is a great situation for them. Obviously, it is not a great situation for other teams but what can you do.

Barcelona is at the same place right now as well, they do not have a lot of the players that made up the big stats of last year, and now they are basically rebuilding and they do not look that bad neither. Apparently when you are a good team, even if you lose some great players, you still find a way to win games.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Actually I'm personally not too impressed with the current standings, because every top team still can't win in all matches like in previous seasons. But even so, I am personally a little surprised by the changes that have occurred in Valencia, as I remember Valencia in the last few seasons has looked like a mediocre team. Currently Valencia can stand in second place and that is a positive change that has been made even though the opponents they face are not top teams.

Some interesting thing from Valencia so far are the strong defensive walls they have. Conceding 2 goals in 4 match is a good statistic for them although there are still other team that have conceded only 1 goal in 4 match. Carlos Soler became the top scorer for Valencia in 4 match with 3 goals to his name. In addition to having a strong defense, their goal productivity is also quite good if you look at their statistics in 4 Laliga match.

I´m one of those who think that the best attack is in defense, and Valencia is clear about it, despite the fact that in the survey Barcelona is winning by a higher percentage, I think there could be a big surprise, or it could be given by Valencia or the Atlético de Madrid, I don't know, Barcelona and Real Madrid have always been the favorites in the League, but seeing as they are now almost on equal terms, Barcelona without Messi and although Real Madrid have great players they don't have Mbappé, it will be It is interesting to see a more balanced level of football, but I insist who else can surprise Atletico Madrid.

You are really right about it. Even if they don't have Ronaldo now and they still haven't made the necessary transfers, they still manage to win their matches even with a big score. For example, they destroyed Celta Vigo 5-2 and Benzema made a hat-trick. Benzema has a really big role in carrying the team to victories. But we can't see the same thing from Barcelona since Messi left. They are having problems a lot. Their CL match today against Bayern Munich is a good example I think.

Real Madrid is playing well and scoring a lot of goals, but I would say Real Madrid still needs players like Mbappe. Karim Benzema is 33 years old. He is still showing great gameplay. But how long will a team depend on him alone? Since Ronaldo left Real Madrid, the team has relied entirely on Benzema. In the last 4 matches, Benzema has scored 5 goals and 4 assists. So Real Madrid still has to find a replacement for Benzema.

What you say makes sense, at the moment Real Madrid are too dependent on Benzema. If it turns out that Benzema is injured, I don't see anyone
in the Madrid squad who can replace Benzema's role. So it seems that Mbappe is really needed by Madrid as a substitute for Benzema, after all,
with Benzema's age who is not young anymore, I believe Benzema will decrease his productivity even more. So I admit that Real Madrid does need
Mbappe's presence. But I don't know if Real Madrid will move quickly to try to buy Mbappe again when the transfer window opens. or wait until
Mbappe's contract runs out. But if Madrid wait for Mbappe's contract to expire, it is feared that other big teams will compete to catch up with Mbappe.

Really Real Madrid too dependent with Karim Benzema as forward and not give any chance for young player like Jovic to get more minutes playing, lear from last season when Benzema injury Real Madrid hard to win and difficulty to make goal because without Benzema on the field. Better Real Madrid have looking many alternative forward when Benzema injury or not play they have other player become goal creator for Real Madrid, Mbappe have finished and not any update transfer again just waiting next year will Mbappe keep going extended or not with PSG.

the situation this season seems very different from Real Madrid 2 last season. They are filled with world star players and it is not difficult to get other players to fill the main place from injured players or accumulated cards.
True, Real Madrid has to think of the best alternative or maybe a player to partner with Benzema.
if not, maybe Madrid will find it difficult to rotate their players when the match schedule gets tighter.

Anyway, Valencia deserves to be considered this season and I really hope Valencia can be consistent because I miss the old Valencia that could be a competitor in the top standings. So far with 4 matches Valencia has 9 goals and only conceded 2 that is an achievement, even though you compare with other teams that only conceded 1 but they didn't have the same goal achievement, right. Therefore, this season will be a very interesting season because their strengths are no longer much different because the top teams have also lost their star players and yes, Atletico still have their star players and that will be a guarantee for him.

Indeed, Real Madrid should have given more opportunities to play like Luka Jovic or Mariano Diaz. So don't be too dependent on Benzema,
if Benzema doesn't play, it will be dangerous for Madrid if they are not prepared from now on. While waiting for the certainty of Mbappe's future
and also the transfer market has closed now, Carlo Ancelotti should be able to maximize the current Real Madrid squad. One of them is not to play
Benzema too often for 90 minutes, should give another strikers a chance should have started. In addition to reducing the risk of Benzema injury,
other attackers who are given the opportunity to play are expected to improve their performance.

Coach Zidane was overly dependent on Benzema. His tactics were centered on Benzema. Now maybe we won’t see it. Carlo Ancelotti Maybe don't just rely on Benzema. And if he does the same, Real Madrid will have to give up hope of winning the title this season as well. However, many Real Madrid players are now in good form. The coach now has to pick the best strategy. The coach will also have to see how Hazard and Bale can be brought back to form and how they can be used properly. Vinicius must take care. He will be an invaluable gem for the future team if he can maintain his form and fitness.

On the one hand, Real has only one top striker and this is Benzema, but on the other hand, Real has a lot of top attacking players in the middle line, so in a pinch they can even play as a striker. Of course, given the fact that Benzema is gradually aging, plus the need to be more unpredictable for competitors, Real needs to buy at least one more pronounced striker.

Real Madrid midfield and attack so far have been very good, Until the fourth game Real Madrid goal productivity was very good. But Real Madrid strength is not yet perfect they have a little problem at the back. So far what I see, Real Madrid back line is very fragile, conceding 6 goals in 4 matches is not a good achievement for a team like Real Madrid. I think ancelotti must soon find a good formula to overcome the fragile defense of Real Madrid.

Because after Ronaldo left and Bale lost his fitness and contribution, Real Madrid don't have good attacking players and Benzema with his ability automatically becomes the main source of goal in Real Madrid. It happened in all clubs, with all coaches. In any team, you will see a player who contributes most of goals for that club.

Ancelotti will try to reduce and maximize the dependence of the team on Benzema but real results so far show that Benzema is still the main striker and main source of goals for Real.

Benzema is the only striker or forward in Real Madrid has a top-notch level in this season. He has experience and great skills. Perez want to revise the team with Mbappe but failed because PSG did not want to sell him. You are right about the ageing issue of Benzema and Real Madrid will do more serious transfers in next summer.

Mbappe or Haaland will be their main target for transfer. Perhaps both, Mbappe as a free transfer and Haaland will be bought from Dortmund.

It was nice to see that Real Madrid demolished Celta Vigo with a 5-2 result. Even if they couldn't make very good transfers, they are still doing good with the current starting eleven. Benzema is still carrying the team and he made a hat-trick here. He scored 4 goals in 5 league matches so far. Benzema is still performing great despite he is 33 now.

If we look at the matches this season, Real Madrid has won 3 of 4 matches and drawn 1. Benzema and Vinicius are the main contributors to the good performance of their team in all the matches. These two are doing a great job so Real Madrid is able to score so many goals. Their defense is weak, they are concede a lot of goals, yet they are able to win because the strikers are in good form.

Real Madrid management wants to sign Mbappe only to reduce their reliance on Benzema. Since no young and experienced player has yet joined Real Madrid, it is expected that the team will rely on Benzema to score this season as well. But if Ancelotti can fix the fitness of Bale and Hazard, the team's reliance on Benzema will diminish.

Benzema's career is still brilliant even though he is not young anymore, but his performance is no longer in doubt now he has 5 goals and also 4 assists so indeed he has contributed a lot to Real Madrid and Karim Benzema is an important player to prioritize .

And now playing in the UCL against Inter milan of course this will be a weapon for real madrid to put Benzema as the most dangerous line and I will not doubt how he is already in front of the opponent's goal.

[baeva]

although madrid haven't lost this season, but the number of goals conceded means the madrid defense is in a pretty dangerous state at the moment, and in their 4 matches, madrid have conceded 6 goals so far, in my opinion, this problem must be addressed by carlo ancellotti before met with big clubs that do have a dangerous attacking line in La Liga such as Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, so far Real Madrid have new met teams that are currently at the bottom of the table such as Levante, Real Betis, Deportivo Alaves and finally Celta Vigo, so this cannot be used as a benchmark if Madrid is better this season.

I think they will somehow solve this problem before serious matches. It's quite possible that they just didn't stress before such matches, and will prepare for strong opponents. However, it sounds like nonsense, but the team must have a normal defense, and whether you win or not, it is undesirable to concede goals. I think that even the departure of the captain has nothing to do with it.

Their stats in defense are not good. They have Alaba but it's not enough. I think they need 2 center backs for this season. But strangely, they even chased Mbaape to buy. If you look at the results of the match, the attack line is still great, they are not very important to buy attackers. I don't understand if purchasing mbappe is what Anceloti needs or their management wants?

Although Benzema is now 33 years old, he is still a great player. His best part is, he can perform the whole season without getting injured. He can keep fitness and performance just right. And so he can score a lot of goals and do a lot of assists. Benzema must play a key role in winning against a strong team like Inter Milan. I don't think if Benzema won't perform well then Real Madrid will manage to win.
