La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[CryptoBuds]

There is not much time to go for the Getafe v Real Madrid match today. Real Madrid are the absolute favourite team here obviously. But they should still play carefully as they are going to play against an unbeaten team for some weeks. Getafe can be seen as near the relegation area but thanks to their recent form they got out of a worse situation. But I feel like that it's time for them to lose. Real Madrid should be able to destroy them by a decent goal difference.

I don't think it will be a problem for Real Madrid to win against Getafe. Real Madrid is an experienced team. They know how to win against a weak team. However, Vinicius Junior will not play in this match due to being infected with coronavirus. Real Madrid would have been stronger if he had been in the squad. Yet Benzema and Madrich are there. I don't think Real Madrid will have any problems winning this match.

Real Madrid keep playing with full team against Getafe just miss out Vinicius Jr only and his position replace by Assensio, I think most waiting performance is Karim Benzema can take chance to make goal again in this match and become top scorer for the first time in La Liga after few years not success become top scorer. Real Madrid left 8 points from Sevilla and try get three points in this match to make Madrid keep safety on first position standing.

I lost my bet. I never imagined Real Madrid would lose to a team like Getafe. They lost 1-0. Getafe went ahead with a goal in the ninth minute. After that they will play defensively, this is normal. Because their goal was to draw, to share points. Getafe played defensively after scoring, but have rarely seen a stronger attack than Real Madrid. Benzema did not play well and Vinicius was not in the team. Maybe that's why Real Madrid couldn't score.

It seems that Eder Militao can't sleep well for today. His blunder caused madrid to lose 1-0. In fact Madrid got the ball and kept pressing Getafe but they couldn't score.  This result is very far from my prediction. Getafe were really lucky and Madrid were very unlucky. Even madrid players seemed to lose the idea to make a goal against Getafe. The issue also angered Anceloti who was shown a yellow card for protests. Of course this time makes Madrid lose three points and have a difference of points from Sevilla who have two fewer games.

This was unexpected indeed, with a blunder that could be fatal, even though this goal was more accurate to say in the early minutes, but with a very large amount of time Real Madrid could not reply to a single goal against Getafe.
With five players off there was no change and indeed the players lost the idea of how to score their goals while the pressure continued throughout the game, but Getafe were strong against this pressure so well that they continued to defend.
Who is not angry for Ancelotti if his game wins to lose.

I would argue against that. Mistakes can happen, but should one mistake cost a team like Real Madrid the whole game against a club called Getafe? No, Real's squad should still be able to turn such a game around. I understand that such a mistake in a CL game can cost you the whole matchup, but not against lower ranked teams in the Primera División.

The first tie between Getafe and Real Madrid ended a draw 0---0.
I wasn't expecting this although but it ended in favour of the home side.
A poor start to the new year, hope this doesn't continues with the next game with Valencia.
Athletico Madrid impressive win over Rayo Vallecano a good start to the La liga, keeping a clean sheet in the process.

[perla]

Well, Real Madrid started in the worst possible way after the winter break. Was not necessary. They should not lose to Getafe. At least a draw, but actually you just have to win that match. The gameplay wasn't great either. It won't be a disaster yet, Barcelona has already been kicked out for the title and I don't see Atletico getting any closer than they are now. But still, Real have to win again now. Tonight Barcelona, I do not know what to expect from that team now.

[BIT-BENDER]

Real madrid dropped Three points today in a heated competition today, in which o didn't think they played badly but was just outplayed by a good team, Real madrid didn't even get the opportunity at their opportunity goal that much it was a game that modric lost most of the Battle in the mid field, congratulations to Atletico madrid for taking advantage of the real Madrid dropped point, to win by two goals to nil, now it's up to Barcelona to do something to recover on Real madrid.

I was really happy to see that Atletico Madrid didn't make a big mistake this time and finally won a league game. Their opponent was really tough but Vallecano had many players missing due to covid-19 too. And Atletico Madrid benefited from their condition. They dominated the game and defeated them by 2-0.

But the most interesting thing of the day was that Getafe somehow managed to defeat Real Madrid by 1-0. I really didn't even give them a chance for them to be the team to end Real Madrid's great streak. This is an opportunity for the other teams to get closer to them in the standings.

I think the result was beyond what many people expected, it was a loss for Real Madrid today. If Sevilla manage to win the remaining 2 postponed matches, the point difference will be closer. It would be 2 points between Real Madrid and Sevilla.

In addition, Barcelona played without many of its important players. Dembele, Alba, Busquets and Coutinho and some other important players. Obviously this is very detrimental to Barcelona at this time where they will be very difficult to score goals throughout the match. The first half was almost certainly goalless even though Barcelona dominated this match well.

I must honestly say I am grateful Getafe made it. I now hope that Sevilla wins both games and the league becomes a little bit more exciting then. If Sevilla fails, it is going to be a boring season for all Primera División fans.

getafe appeared with a very solid defense in this match and indeed the 90 minutes passed very slowly for them because indeed they must continue to be forced to survive the sporadic onslaught of real madrid.
losing Vinicius on the wings didn't go well and this was their second loss after a few good games

Yes and I also know they haven't lost the last 15 games all competitions combined, yet I think that one single mistake shouldn't be the decisive factor for such a game. A world class team must have the quality to win or against tie the game regardless of one single individual mistake.

The biggest disappointments today are Real Madrid and Betis... The two leaders in the standings lost by a landslide to the underdogs... A very strange coincidence! Didn't expect such an outcome... At least Barcelona managed to score, already good!

[Ebede]

A wonderful performance for the host and defending Champions Athletico Madrid.
A good start to the league and ahead of the Champions League.
A poor start to the league for Real Madrid....they can do better in the next fixture ahead.

They lost and Barcelona is winning. They had a great opportunity to climb to higher ranks in standing. Even though he's criticized by everyone, Luuk de Jong scored another goal. Barcelona are holding the ball, they will get an important three points if they don't have an accident by the end of the game. Mallorca spectators filled the stadium, but there was no pressure from fans. It's most likely that there are tourists coming to watch Barcelona.

Finally Real Madrid suffered their second defeat, after previously playing consistently. But I was quite surprised that the one who beat Real Madrid
was a team that was near the relegation zone, this is a very bad result for Real Madrid. I admit that Getafe's defense is very solid, making it very
difficult for Real Madrid players to score goals. Even Real Madrid was only able to shoot on goal 4 times, this is proof that Getafe's defense
coordination is very good. Real Madrid players frustrated by Getafe's tough game, Getafe's players had to commit a lot of fouls to stop Real Madrid's
attack. It was very clear to see the enthusiasm of the Getafe players to maintain their advantage after scoring a goal in the 9th minute. This is
a lesson for Real Madrid not to concede in the early minutes, because if they concede first, doing attacks will be rushed and many attacks are ineffective.
It turned out that the loss of Vinicius Junior was enough to affect the attack from Real Madrid, I hope Vinicius Junior can play again soon.

It was really nice to see Atletico Madrid finally being able to win a league game after a break of four weeks. They lost four weeks in a row in the end and this was a very valuable victory for them. And they got the win deservedly at the same time. And when it comes to the Getafe vs Real Madrid game, the result was very surprising to me as Real Madrid couldn't hinder a 1-0 loss. Getafe maintained their unbeaten streak and it was a big shock for Real Madrid. But they shouldn't lose their positive football just because this result of course.

[Ebede]

Barcelona claims all three points tonight.
The single goal from Luuk Dee Jong gives Barcelona an edge over Mallorca.
They are finally progressing,love to see Xavi's team and boys win more.

[Woodie]

Barcelona seems to have come back to their winning ways and this away win is one which was very important as this puts them in a position where they can potentially go third if they drop points and just looking at the league table is looking like at the moment makes me wonder how these guys have caught the pack which has Atletico Madrid and all teams in it....now i am disappointed with how Alt Madrid has fared of late.

Exactly my toughts i was happy to see getafe win today real madrid perfirmance was a bit off in the first half but a much better one in the second half i think the early goal caught them off guard and now sevilla have two games against cadiz away and getafe at home they can totally get two wins.

Unfortunately, the Real Madrid match ruined my evening completely. I really did not expect such a poor performance. I don't want even mention how much it ruined my bet slip..  
Well, we love football because it gives us great emotions and is unpredictable. We don't always have to win. Next time will be better
