La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[hyudien]

Sevilla drew with Valencia by 1-1 yesterday. This was not an unexpected incident for me honestly. Because bookmakers also were waiting for this to happen and we weren't surprised. Sevilla would have won this game actually if they were able to keep their score advantage but they couldn't. Now, they are four points away from Real Madrid in the league standings and they both have played the same amount of games. We will see if Real Madrid will continue to make mistakes and give a chance for Sevilla to take the lead in the future.

The match stats look balanced. Although Sevilla had more possession of the ball, it did not make Valencia lose opportunities. both teams played quite well.
two goals occurred in the first half and if Luis Gaya's red card early in the second half. I'm sure the result will be in Sevilla's favor.
I hope Sevilla can win. because it will be more interesting to fight with Madrid.

The final score only resulted in a draw and made Sevilla stuck even with Valencia's players, who were only 1 player short due to a red card, not taking advantage of the vacancy situation in an ideal formation. Valencia is really quite able to survive by changing the formation to close the gap. Doing defensive mode is the best option when Jose Gaya has to leave the field.

Honestly I'm a little disappointed with this result, I predict Sevilla will get full points to approach Real Madrid. The distance of 4 points is now quite far but it makes Real Madrid a little calm. I want tighter competition at the top.
In the next match Real Madrid will host Elche, it looks like it will be an easy match for Real Madrid.

Never underestimate Valencia, they used to be the third biggest club in La Liga. Now they are facing some problems but still in top five. They were something else in early 2000's, good old days. Last two seasons were pretty bad for them and this year they don't offer much, still they are better than other regular middle class teams.
Today Getafe and Granada will play but I don't get the odds. Getafe looks favorite by big margin, I expect a closer game though. It could end in draw like their last two meets. Granada is also unbeaten in four games so Getafe win odds are ridiculously low, I wouldn't touch that.

Final score 1-1 Sevilla failed to get 3 points even though Sevilla controlled the match with 68% ball possession it's just that Valencia's defense was solid today
Sharing points does not change the ranking of both teams but Sevilla failed to keep the points gap even though if Sevilla win the difference in points is 2 which means the competition for the title is still open.

Real Madrid have a comfortable 4-point lead, they can even afford to lose a match and still be the leader. Given that Sevilla can't beat everyone in a row, I expect this gap to widen rather than close. However, with behind such a rival as Betis, Sevilla can at least be confident in second place. Atlético will be dangerous if they can get out of the crisis but it is too far.

Long time and several years ago Valencia is not big four top La Liga team always faced and stay out from top position four standing until end La Liga. I think they faced problem when club get new owner Peter Lim never brave giving much money for head coach how to get star player. Now Valencia out from Europe competition not only miss out long term from champion league competition but also Valencia never participating on Europe Leagues almost five years ago. I think Valencia still have chance how to get good position standing and try back as realistic on Europe league competition next season if success finish on top six position standing.

Without fierce competition at the top of the standings it will look boring, the difference of 4 points makes Real Madrid a little calm, but Real Madrid point may still be pursued by Sevilla. The story is different in the Premier League, Manchester City is quite comfortable at the top because the difference in points with Chelsea is quite far.
Sevilla performance is quite good in this match, they managed to dominate the match with ball possession 68 to 32. But they didn't have enough chances to score, they recorded only 9 chances and 3 shots on target. A draw is fair enough for sevilla because of their status as guests at the Estadio Mestalla.

Among several league competitions that exist in Europe at this time, in my opinion La Liga has a more competitive competition compared to other leagues this season, Madrid is currently only 4 points away from the club in second place, and if you compare it with the top English league, Ligue 1, Bundesliga and also the Italian league, of course you can see if the competition for championship is even tighter in La Liga between Madrid and Sevilla, while other leagues may not have a position change that will occur until the end of the season, because indeed the club in the top position has left their opponent by quite a distance at this time.

Do you forget about Serie A? AC Milan and Inter Milan are very close to each other in Serie A.

In La Liga, Real Madrid look to have more experience than other clubs with their players and their trophies recent seasons. 4 points are not big gap but they can take advantage of it with their experience for long run competition. So I think La Liga is less interesting than Serie A but difference between two leagues is very small.

Others like Premier League and Bundesliga have boring competition when Manchester City and Bayern dominate those leagues with too big difference than opponents.

[hahay]

The difference of four points I don't think is that much distance and it still looks good for Sevilla too, it's a shame Sevilla didn't win in this match because I predict Sevilla can win because Valencia themselves are not strong enough. After all, the title candidates are already very close to Real Madrid but with this close distance, I will still assume that Sevilla have done better this season than the previous season.

Although it looks like Real Madrid is hard to beat by other competitors but there is still a possibility that they will drop a few more points in the next match considering they still have a few games to play before the end of the season. There are 17 games to play for Real Madrid and I'm sure they will still drop points even though at the moment they can maintain their good form.

Sevilla's point difference with Real Madrid is not a lot, only 4 points at the moment after Sevilla's unsatisfactory result. Real Madrid are the best title contenders this season, but Sevilla will struggle to make it difficult as they are the only ones who could possibly be capable of it.

Yes I admit that and because of that, I say Sevilla this season is better and even though the title candidates are very close to Real Madrid but I also have to admit the current points gap does make Real Madrid's position not quite safe. There are several factors that might end up overtaking each other, because Madrid also have to focus on the UCL if they still want to go further there then of course Madrid will make a rotation which is likely to be a blunder in La Liga, who knows. Although I didn't expect it, but I think the competition ahead for Madrid is tough and they also have to maintain their position in the table in La Liga, with such a close gap of course Madrid will share a difficult focus.

On top of that, Real Madrid are still stronger and Sevilla have to do so well and need luck to see lost matches from Real Madrid to win this competition. Sevilla do their job very well in Europa League in which they are champions in many seasons. They are nothing compare to top clubs in Champions League.

In La Liga, they have some seasons fighting for title but they did not get one. Will this season be the milestone for them to change it? I don't think Real Madrid will allow Sevilla to easily achieve it. This season can be a very last season Modric, Benzema, Casemiro, Kroos, etc. will play in a same club and can manage to win big titles. They are moving to separating time, some are old enough like Modric and players like Benzema, Kroos will be replaced by younger players sooner or later.

The difference of 4 points does not completely make Real Madrid safe in pressure and threat. However, Sevilla has matches against Osasuna as well as Celta Vigo. It very potentially has an ideal point material. If Sevilla's game is better than before, which is only able to enter 1 or 2 goals during 6 matches. So Real Madrid's opportunity is not to feel safe, they just need to keep Sevilla away.

Copa Del Ray games tonight, Real Madrid looking sharp and fit for tonight.
They'll continue their strong form tonight, a win is sure for them to proceed to the next round of the Copa Del Ray.
The fixture between Getefe and Granada will also hold, this is a La liga fixture, a loss to Getefe will send them downwards.

There are two Coppa Del Rey matches today namely Elche vs Real Madrid and Bilbao vs Barcelona.
Real Madrid might win this game, but not Barcelona. I want Real Madrid and Barcelona to reach the Copa Del Rey final this season and maybe it will be a good final for both. Although Barcelona looks much weaker, but in the last match we really saw an extraordinary game from them. So basically Barcelona have to win this match even though Barcelona haven't found the right solution for their goalscorer this season.

Sevilla and ATM lost their games in Copa Del Rey and Barcelona game will start vs Bilbao in 2 hours and they might be the next to leave maybe? Odds are close, Bilbao @2.85 and Barca @2.46
Otherwise, Elche 0-0 Real Madrid after 40 minutes of the game.

Let's see what line-up Barcelona will put up for this match, but I will say my opinion that Barcelona have little chance of winning the cup this year. Probably all the forces will be concentrated on La Liga, because I doubt that they will want to win the LE in order to get into the Champions League. They are only a few points short of the Champions League zone in La Liga, and this task can be completely solved. Therefore, the attitude to cup matches may be secondary.

[jakdanyel]

There are two Copa del Rey matches and one of them has already started. Real Madrid are playing an away match against Elche now. And I see that they rotated their squad a little. But they are still the better performing side as there is a big power difference between these teams. It is still going on 0-0 but Real Madrid are still powerful enough to win this match and continue to the quarter finals. And the other match is Athletic Bilbao v Barcelona. This would be hell of a match but I have some doubts about Barcelona. Maybe Athletic Bilbao could manage to eliminate them.

Yep, I'm still thinking about it and if you look at the 90 minutes of the match they took full control of the match but it's a shame that no goals have been scored in this match which makes the match have to be continued into extra time.
but still i will be at madrid in this game.
unless there is a significant surprise or breakthrough from Elche players in this extra time

[Pulsar77]

Elche are 1-0 ahead against Real Madrid very surprisingly. This wasn't an expected thing for me and we are entering the second half of the extra time. Elche scored right after the Real Madrid player Marcelo was sent off. Real Madrid have nothing to lose now and they would fight with all they have got I assume. Elche must defend them very well for the last 15-minute period. Real Madrid won the Super Cup title but they are likely to be eliminated from the Copa del Rey seemingly.

[Altryist]

 Here's how unexpectedly things turned out for Real Madrid. Removal and missed goal. I would be very surprised if Real Madrid can't equalize in extra time and are knocked out of the cup. Yet Yelche is a team of a significantly lower class. Many players probably bet today on the victory of Real Madrid in regular time. At the 108th minute, Isco equalizes the score, I think that even in the minority, the real should at least bring the match to penalty shoot-outs, and then everything will depend on the young Lunin.

Real Madrid with a shocking win in extra time. Sadly i had Real Madrid to win in regular time and i lost my bet but still what a win by Real Madrid scoring two goals with only 10 players so late in the game. Biggest win of the season currently.

Real won 2-1. The game turned out to be strange - on the one hand, Real Madrid had an experimental squad and they could not score a goal during 90 minutes of normal time, but once they found themselves in the minority and conceded a goal, they  visually easily turned the game around. I can assume that only Real Madrid fans are happy with this result, and those who bet on Real Madrid win in regular time are very disappointed.

same with you, I also lost my bet because of this
I'm proud to be on the side of Real Madrid because it's quite clear and it's true that Real Madrid won but with extra time.
but it's okay at least my bet is still pretty accurate for madrid even though i got nothing there.

I think they deserved to win even though they did play with 10 men because indeed they dominated from the start of regular time to extra time.
but on the other hand Elche's defense was really good in today's match
