La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Swordsoffreedom]

Sevilla are a lucky team as they have a chance to drop the gap with Real Madrid in the standings this week. Because they are going to have an easy home match against Elche and Real Madrid have a really difficult match against Villarreal away. I guess that Sevilla would destroy Elche first and drop the gap to three points. And this might cause Real Madrid to feel the pressure on themselves before their Villarreal match. And Villarreal have been in a good shape recently as they have been winning for two weeks. Maybe they can cause Real Madrid to lose points this time. Real Madrid might have a big difficulty in winning while being deprived of Benzema because of his injury.

Sevilla will make a big mistake if they consider Elche as a weak team. We have seen Elche's performance against Real Madrid. Even if Elche could score earlier against Sevilla, it would be very difficult for Sevilla to win the match. So Sevilla have to play very carefully in this match.
Real Madrid's next match is against Villarreal, and after that they will play against PSG in the Champions League. It remains to be seen whether Real Madrid will form their main squad against Villarreal or whether they will rest their key players. The next two matches are important for Real Madrid.

This is what makes Barcelona more confident when facing Atletico, especially if Ansu Fati and Memphis Depay are
able to return to play. Barcelona squad is getting stronger. With Barcelona's big win over Atletico, this made the morale of Barcelona's players
increase. This is of course a good effect for Barcelona, hopefully Barcelona can be even more motivated to beat Espanyol in the next match.
Because Barcelona need to win a lot to ensure they are in the top 4 until the end of this season.

If Barcelona can play like this against Espanyol then I'm sure they can win the match too. However Espanyol were not at their best after their last loss to Bilbao, but derbies are always different.

At FC Barcelona, Xavi's effect on the team is incredible! Barcelona had been ranked 9th before Xavi's arrival but has risen to 4th position since Xavi's arrival. I am sure that Barcelona's current squad is good enough to compete with any team after their confident big win over Atletico Madrid. I'm confident that Barcelona can win the match if they play like this against Espanyol. So we better wait and see how things will unfold!

The arrival of Xavi Hernandez plus several players who came to Barcelona had a pretty good impact on the development of the Catalan team at this time where they managed to return to the Champions League zone by being in the top four of the La Liga standings this season, the performance shown by the children. Xavi Hernandez's care was truly extraordinary where they managed to beat Atletico Madrid with a score of 4-2 at Camp Nou in the 23rd La Liga Jornada continuation.where their next Laka panda will face Espanyol as we know that Spain is in a negative trend. This is a great opportunity for Barcelona to move up to third place in the standings

It's true that Benzema's position is still an ideal center for the survival of Real Madrid, Benzema leadership still has a lot of influence. He's the only player who can inspire other players when under pressure. It is undeniable that in the future Benzema is still needed to continue at Real Madrid. The rumors circulating, I haven't found out for sure whether the truth is about the fear of being replaced by Benzema after there is a new player. It's really hard to believe until now Benzema has contributed quite a lot to be able to accompany Madrid to the top of the standings.

Benzema is Real Madrid's main striker for next few seasons even they are going to secure Mbappe for next season as well, but his position is very strong without any doubt Real Madrid is not going to do any blunder with this star there is nothing any rumour or any news related to this subject.

This season they have very good with the help of Benzema, and it's very important for them to give him some better environment for better results in future they are going to have few very exciting players in this summer which is now very important for their better future here in La Liga. Most chances if Benzema has no injury or any other issue he is going to end his career here at Real Madrid because now he is already 34 and can play 3 or 4 more years which is not bad for players like him.

I saw on the news that fiorentino Perez is Also monitoring the Harland situation same thing with Barcelona but I don't think that's going to end benzema stay at real Madrid because he is so versatile to play any where in the front three and also behind the main striker depends on the formation. Karim benzema have done enough for real Madrid to make them allow him make decisions if he wants to stay or leave.

[kawetsriyanto]

The team definitely has progress, but I would not say that Xavi has changed the team a lot and improved the results.~~I tell that it is too early to do any conclusions, it is necessary for Barca to start showing stable results.

Agree. Although Barcelona performance looks better in the last match, it is too early claiming that Xavi successfully changes the team. Barcelona needs to prove us by winning the next matches consistently. At least, we need to see how good their performance is, in the next 5 matches. So, we can decide that Xavi truly changes the team or that winning against Atletico Madrid was just a piece of luck.

Depend can Sevilla show consistent and get three points from Elche? I think is not easy because Elche have consistent performance last two match before, first success make Madrid really hard how to get draw and last week Elche defeat Alaves 4-1. I think Elche have more confidence against with Sevilla although as away and they will be consistent like how make Madrid have got draw and playing away on Bernabeu. Sevilla should try hard keep get three points in this match if want gap points with Madrid keep close and not give chance for Madrid get trophy early before league ended.

Last match Real Madrid they shown their poor performance. I would like to say Granada Played really well Against Madrid.If they lost the match but they were good team combination. Rea l Madrid have only score 1 goal.I hope Real Madrid will be back their real performance in next match because Real Madrid is hard in Laliga in any team.Last match Real Madrid Played without Benzema and Vini.

There was a time when Real Madrid was at a point where they had started to lower their performance, Benzema also began to lose his enthusiasm to strengthen his team. Anxiety occurred in the stronghold of Madrid. They do still have the advantage in the current score, but if their performance continues to decline slowly, it is possible that Sevilla can catch up easily.

I do not expect Real Madrid to give the lead to Sevilla. Remember that Sevilla drew with Osasuna this week. After losing points in such a critical week, Sevilla also has a falling form. In my opinion, Real Madrid will complete this year as the leader, unless it comes as a surprise. If, as you said, Sevilla surpasses Real Madrid in the table, I think it would be surprising.

[tygeade]

Benzema very worried about his future in Real Madrid this because every season Madrid always trying to find new forward players although since Ronaldo leave his performance was perfectly increase with scoring a lot of goals but seems Madrid never satisfied with his achievement and next season probably new rumours will appears too but he said someday if new players appears and he had no place again in the team Benzema want return to his former team Lyon

Look, I get that Benzema is a great player and all, but Real offered 180+ million euro for Mbappe last summer. Not saying that they WILL get mbappe, maybe they will or maybe they won't but that is the amount of money that was offered. This means that Real has enough money to spend on a brilliant new striker, maybe Haaland, maybe Mbappe, maybe get them both? I do not know but they are definitely capable of doing it.

Plus, Benzema is no longer a young player, he is getting to his old age and that is totally understandable that no matter how great he is, it is time to look for his replacement as well. Do you really think that Bayern doesn't consider what they will do after Lewa leaves? Every team checks and tries to see what they can do after their good player is gone, and that is the same with Real. They like Benzema, but they will have to look for a younger version.

To me,I can say Xavi has changed a lot of things at the club.He brought in some experienced players that can make things happen at the club not minding their age,he just wants the result.

He also reintroduced the Tiki- taka pattern of football when he came and right now Barcelona can touch ball the way they used to.He has been phenomenal of resent,and one can say it's now the results are coming.

Benzema has a successful career in Real Madrid but he only got a striker position after many years had to play as forward to support Ronaldo in Bernabeu. He has his best seasons in personal aspect in past few seasons but it won't be a long happy time for Benzema. Real Madrid don't have good history to resign new long contract with old players. They also have abundant transfer budget to replace old players with younger ones.

Plus, Benzema is no longer a young player, he is getting to his old age and that is totally understandable that no matter how great he is, it is time to look for his replacement as well.

Additionally, Haaland is just 21 years old and Real Madrid will have his contribution more than 10 years. It's a very good choice for them. I believe that Haaland won't stay in Germany/ Bundesliga and will find new challenge in another league. Premier League, La Liga will be most promising destination for Haaland.

[bekti3]

Losing Benzema is a blow for them at this time because indeed when Benzema's absence has an impact on their productivity in scoring goals

Sure, unfortunately, Benzema is injured. Carlo Ancelotti must have difficulty choosing another striker to replace his role because other strikers aren't productive enough this season. Jovic rarely made a goal, while Diaz is also injured. It is quite urgent to have new central forwards.

Rodrygo's current form has fallen short of expectations and there really is no other choice now as there must be a center forward now before getting their new striker.
Some time ago Isco tried to be made into a striker but he still couldn't contribute much and Vinicius and Asensio seemed to lose momentum when Benzema was not around.
But hopefully now things are good because the match must go on even if Benzema is not there

[jakdanyel]

It is another matchday but this time it is in the Copa del Rey. Rayo Vallecano are going to have a home match against Betis in the first leg. And I see Betis as the favourite obviously. They are not too close teams now actually but bookmakers are still giving an odd around 2.70 for Betis win. They are slightly the favourite according to the odds but I wouldn't be surprised if they get even a similar result to the one that they got against Real Sociedad in the previous round. Betis defeated Rayo Vallecano once and drew with them too before in this season. They can get a satisfying result here too.

Yes, we shouldn't just watch yesterday's match, we can see how Xavi managed to change the club from the beginning of his arrival back to Barcelona. Imagine if at that time Xavi still failed to restore a bit of the team's form, then it is certain that Barcelona may still be knocked out of the top 10 in the standings. Now, Xavi can bring Barcelona back in the top 4 in the standings and of course it is a good achievement for Xavi too, considering Xavi's time in coaching is still not high enough.

If we look at this season Real Madrid and Sevilla have only played 23 games, there are still quite a few rounds to be completed by Real Madrid
and Sevilla. This means that for Sevilla it is still possible to replace Real Madrid at the top, because now there are only 6 points difference between
Real Madrid and Sevilla. But it is surprising if it is true that when Real Madrid is replaced by Sevilla, because I don't think Real Madrid will let
that happen. Real Madrid has a winning mentality, so Real Madrid will try not to lose a lot of points. Although Real Madrid's performance has
decreased slightly in the last few matches, at least Real Madrid's performance is slightly better than Sevilla. Which Sevilla dropped points in
the last 3 matches in a row, and it deprived Sevilla of a chance to catch up with Real Madrid's points. I am the same as you, predicting Real Madrid
will stay at the top until the end of the season.

More important than the fact that the Barcelona team is not losing points is that their performance has changed a lot. They have returned to their old ways. And with this strategy they are now able to play well enough. As the strategy changed, Xavi added the players needed for the team. Barcelona have a problem scoring goals so they have Aubameyang and Torres in the team. And they are playing well. I think we can see Barcelona in the top 4 of the table.

[Slow death]

Real madrid 1 - 0 Granada

oreal madrid is in a crisis of scoring a lot of goals in the last games they can't score more than 2 goals and they have also conceded goals, so things are not going well, at least in this game against granada they managed to win, but as a fan they didn't I'm very satisfied, I expected them to at least manage to score 2 goals

Despite having serious problems in scoring goals, Real Madrid team leaves the matches with a victory in the Spanish league somehow. Karim Benzama's contract continues until 30 June 2023, Real Madrid really needs this striker, I think they need another striker of this quality in their forward line. I'm not sure if Benzama has any desire to return to his birthplace, Lyon.

i have seen that the news sites in the last 24 hours have been posting a lot of news about the future of karin benzema in real madrid i am wondering what is going on? is he wanting to leave real madrid or is he complaining about something?

Last match Real Madrid they shown their poor performance. I would like to say Granada Played really well Against Madrid.If they lost the match but they were good team combination.

real madrid is much better than sevilla so they have a greater chance of being champions, the problem with real madrid is that they are not playing very well in certain games against very weak teams

The feat that Xavi has shown to all Barcelona fans is a strong belief that he will continue to improve as long as there are opportunities. It is almost inconceivable without Xavi or without any changes. So we see that Barcelona is only a club that is considered to be dead and sinking. But now that perception is starting to fade and there is still some hope for the continuation of Barcelona in the future. There is still a long way to go and Xavi can still improve.

At first many people doubted when Xavi came to take over Barcelona, because Xavi was considered to be inexperienced in the coaching chair, let alone the team he had to fix for a Barcelona class team that everyone knows about the quality of this team. And I think that doubt still exists in some people. But Xavi is now starting to make a good change for Barcelona. Although not completely, but I see the process in that direction exists.

[Velvet78]

Sevilla drew with Osasuna and this helped Real Madrid increase the gap to 6 points with them. Real Madrid is still the favourite for the title and they can get much closer to it as long as they open the gap.

Yes, with a draw from Sevilla, the gap points further. Real Madrid's position in the first rank can not be shifted by any club right now. But that does not mean the position will continue to be safe.
For the next match, Real Madrid will play Villarreal, which is also not a frivolous club. Therefore, Ream Madrid must remain vigilant and give their best performance.

When it comes to Real Madrid's next league game, I think that Villarreal are going to be much more difficult then Granada for them. And its being an away game increases the difficulty for Real Madrid more. Sevilla can see this as an opportunity to decrease the point difference again. Their opponent is Elche in the end and they must be able to win in the league finally after getting draws for three weeks consecutively. If they maintain this bad form, they could say goodbye to their title chance soon.

It's too soon to conclude Xavi Hernandez's success with Barcelona even though they have only won one big match, I think they forgot about Barcelona's failure in the Champions League and Copa del Rey. Perhaps optimistic that Barcelona's performance under Xavi will be better than the previous coach, but he has given the most fatal failure when Barcelona were eliminated in the Champions League group stage, this is the first time in Barcelona's history that they failed to qualify from the group stage.

but also too early to judge Xavi who failed to coach Barca. Barca's gameplay is gradually improving, and this is a process that Xavi developed. It's not easy to manage a team under pressure from a big problem like Barca. and Xavi tries to revive the team that has lived up to his name.
this season may be bad for Xavi and Barca. but hopefully next season they will perform better with better performance as well.
