La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[keyscore44]

I believe Barcelona is looking to replicate something Real Madrid did last season. In the last season, Real Madrid did not have a particularly strong defense. However, Real Madrid still managed to win both the La Liga title and also the Champions League title as well.

I think Barcelona is just trying to do the same thing. But for some reason, I think that is not going to work. First of all, Real Madrid has brought in defensive players to strengthen the defensive line. And secondly, Real Madrid has a much more complete team compared to Barcelona.

Right now Barcelona does look to be the second best in La Liga. So I hope Barcelona will be able to achieve some remarkable things. The reason for this is that otherwise there will be a lot of questions and a lot of money could be wasted.

Barcelona made a lot of changes to the team. In my opinion, most of the transfer decisions were very good. Fans have high hopes that this season in La Liga will belong to Barcelona. However, in my opinion, it all depends on how Lewandowski will get along with other players on and off the pitch. If he scores as many goals as in Bayern Munich, Barcelona should be able to deal with Real Madrid.

I expect to see a bigger competition for the league championship this time. Barcelona have made really good transfers and Lewandowski is the most important one of course. They needed these transfers to be more competitive. Having only solid game strategies aren't always enough. Now they can fight for the championship against Real Madrid. They already started to shock Real Madrid by defeating them with a huge score in Bernabeu last season. I think that it was only the beginning.

In the last few matches of the finished season, Barcelona dominated in all their statistics in the number of passes, in possession of the ball and many others, but unfortunately lost due to the terrible effectiveness of strikers. If Lewandowski will be as effective as in Bayern Munich, he will definitely change these statistics and this season Barcelona may be much better than Real Madrid.

Real Madrid and Barcelona will play against each other tomorrow, even though it's a friendly match but we might be able to see how they're going to play and that match could give us a clue on how the season will go, Barcelona are the favourites to win the match, and I expect them to win it.

Barcelona are still in the pursuit for more players as they continue to struggle with financial issues.They have seen most of the players they wanted to sign turn them down because of the financial crisis at the club at the moment,therefore,they have decided to sell some of the players to make funds available so as to be able to get the type of players they want.A player in the calibre of Lewandowski and Raphinha. It is yet to be seen whether they will be able to afford them or not.

I think, Barcelona president is still looking for a way to get a huge amount of money to bring in new talented players in this season that will help the team to grow higher. I believe, they will definitely get the type of players they want in this season because many potential players are willing to join the team, if Barcelona managements can be able to afford the money. If Barcelona managements can be able to afford the money to get talented strikers and midfielders it will be difficult for any team to defeat Barcelona in next season because all those young talented strikers and midfielders have something good to offer that will bring victory at the end of the tournament.

I really don't understand the idea of bringing in new players at this moment because I believe they don't have a good amount of bank balance to pull off those types of transfers. I believe that Barcelona will be better off not making those big transfers and trying to save up the money for the future. Now I understand that everyone is really excited right now because they have a new coach who has been able to achieve good results in a short amount of time. It does feel like if he is given some money to work with, Barcelona will be able to show better performance. They bought Lewandowski, they bought Raphinha, but my question is what if it does not work out and Barcelona just ends up losing more money?

soccer is a business, and like any business it is necessary to invest in the quality of the product to make a profit, with that team from the past even if it was with xavi, barcelona would only be fighting to be in the first 4 places or worse it could be fighting not to be relegated. for them to be able to get out of the financial crisis they needed to invest in good players to win la league and league of champions, only then they will be able to have more money and the team will be as good as in the past. they had no choice, at least those who have common sense and understand business know that this was the only good move

[TelolettOm]

I think it's just a coincidence, Barcelona are more advantaged because Lewandowski and Raphinha prefer to play for Barcelona than Chelsea. Long before the deal happened, these two players had expressed their dream to play for Barcelona. While Barcelona also opened the door wide to welcome the arrival of these two players.
Chelsea do not want to fail again on their next target, they must move faster to quickly complete the transfer of Kounde. Previously Kounde had also said he wanted to play with Barcelona, ​​but until now there has been no movement from Barcelona to sign Kounde. Chelsea can take advantage of this opportunity so as not to lose their target again.

This is also one of the reasons related to the chance of being a big club again. Moreover, we know that right now Barcelona's squad is really changing, they are very potential to bounce back again after the drop in the last year. Wouldn't this be an attraction for other players to join this big club, right? Barcelona's intention on that new player.
And here is the latest news:

The classico will be returning tomorrow in form of a friendly game barcelona are the favourite with 1.92 odd and real madrid with 3 odd its a bit surprising since real madrid was far better last season but i guess the bookies took in consideration last season large win for barcelona 4 0 not to mention the new players they signed, unlike last season i think tomorrow game will be a close one and will give us insight on what to expect from both teams.

Well the match will be held in few hours from now in USA time at nevada.

Despite it's a friendly match ... it would be remain heating im pretty sure , and yeah the odds pretty strange ... that's how bookies confusing us although yeah in a friendly match like this things often went unexpected .. hard to predict. I'll be on real madrid side though for +0.5 handicap as i see the potential to get draw.

I also read a rumor about Tuchel due to the move of Azpilicueta to Barcelona. But, there is new news again that finally Chelsea and Barcelona have an agreement on the Azpilicueta movement to Barcelona. But once more, there is also rumor that the move will be blocked.

I think it is only a rumor, Azpilicueta should be not for sale. He is Chelsea captain, Chelsea must be aware that it will a huge mistake to lose a captain. I read in an article lately, Tuchel and Chelsea management won't allow Azpilicueta to move to any club. If this news is true, I am pessimistic that Barcelona can sign Azpilicueta. Tuchel and Chelsea management must do everything to prevent him because Azpilicueta is a crucial player for Chelsea squad. So, I bet Azpilicueta will get an offer for a new contract and be given an increase in his salary.

Of course we are all waiting for this match! I think it is too early to be able to judge what will happen in the coming season, because the new players in Barcelona have not had enough time to settle in and harmonize with the team. However, there is no doubt that Barcelona is the favorite of this match.

There are some rumours relating Memphis Depay to Newcastle in the recent times. However he is about to turn down an offer from them now. Because Depay's wish is to play for a strong team if he leaves his team now. Newcastle haven't proven their strength yet and they need time for that. As a result Depay isn't going there. Tottenham have had some interest as well but I don't know how much serious they are. If they make an offer I assume Depay would evaluate it seriously.

Newcastle United is not really strong team I think because not participant on Europe competition between Champion League or Europe League. I think best player like Depay need find new team have participants on champion league, he will left Barcelona because difficult to find regular position with Barcelona, actually with new player arrived make Depay have little chance become regular player for next season,. Not bad leaving Barcelona and looking for team can give more minutes playing.

Depay is obviously not planning to move to New Castle United by leaving Barcelona. The first thing to understand is that even though New Castle United will pay him more than Barcelona, I don't think his move to Newcastle will be an improvement in any way. And secondly, Barcelona will be playing in the Champions League full. And who does not want to play in the Champions League?

There must be reasons why he decided not to leave Barcelona at this time. But if he does get a better offer I think he is not planning to stay in Barcelona. Because obviously there is no reason to stay at a club that is basically broken. Instead, you can play for another team who can play well and also compete at the top level of a league.

I'm sure Depay is aware that his position is threatened with Lewandowski's arrival. So maybe Xavi will prioritize Aubameyang or Lewandowski
as the main choices. But as Depay has said, he only wants to move if there is a strong team that is interested in him. What Depay meant was
maybe a club with the potential to win trophies, so it's clear that Depay will not be interested in joining Newcastle who are not playing in any
European competition. This means that Depay is ambitious enough to win trophies and he is not interested in the big salaries offered by Newcastle.
What surprised me was that the offer from Tottenham was rejected by Depay, even though Tottenham will play the Champions League next season,
maybe Depay thinks it will be difficult to win a trophy if he plays at Tottenham. That's why until now Depay still stays at Barcelona,
because Depay still hasn't found a strong club that wants him. Though his football career could be destroyed if forced to stay at Barcelona,
because it is certain Depay has difficulty getting playing time.

Barca and Sevilla have reached an agreement in principle for Jules Kounde. The deal is 99% closed, unless there is a cataclysm in the next few hours, the Sevilla center back will be a Barça player. I don't know how Barca are still out there buying players but I think its a pretty good snatch, if it goes through.

Actually I was quite surprised with Barcelona. Some reports said that they did not have much money. But they were able to buy Lewandoski and Raphinha for a total of almost 100 million euros. Will even buy more new players, for the position of defender.
I read a little news in the local media, that barca has restructured the organization by taking several steps such as. sell longer broadcast rights up to 25 years. Selling 49.9 percent Barca Licensing and Merchandising (BLM). The injection of funds and of course the decision to dump Messi last year greatly eased their debt. Even their debt deficit reached 555 million euros

So, I bet Azpilicueta will get an offer for a new contract and be given an increase in his salary.

actually Cesar Azpilicueta's contract was originally set to expire in a few months. but apparently it has been extended again until 2023. so this time his move I think will depend on whether chelsea will get julez kounde or not. because if chelsea doesn't get jules kounde then of course chelsea will not let Cesar Azpilicueta move. So until now Cesar Azpilicueta's position is still uncertain whether he will move to Barcelona or will remain at Chelsea. it depends on who will succeed in the fight for get jules kounde. because if Barcelona manages to bring in Jules Kounde then it looks like Barcelona will not continue their interest in signing Cesar Azpilicueta. but Cesar Azpilicueta himself seems to really want to move. but until now his fate is still unclear.

Real Madrid VS Barcelona

I am currently enjoying the Barcelona vs Real Madrid club-friendly match. Fati-Lewandowski-Raphinha in Barcelona's starting XI. On the other hand, Real Madrid's forward Benzema is absent. Real Madrid is often tricky when performing against strong teams. Madrid is playing defensively in today's match as well. So Barcelona's defenders have to be careful, if Real Madrid can somehow score the first goal of the match, they will play more defensively, and try their best to win the match by playing defensively.

It is an enjoyable match. However, Barcelona and Real Madrid matches are always exciting. Barcelona leads 1-0 in the 27th minute. Young Raphinha scored the first goal of the match for Barcelona. Since Raphinha scored, I expect a goal from Vinicius as well. I think these two players are of similar quality, both young Brazilian players. Let's see which team the result of the match is in favour of today. However, Real Madrid's performance against Barcelona has been good so far.

Barça actually spent better than we expected. I did not believe that 100 M€ could come out of their pocket. Still worth it for Lewandowski. We can say that Barcelona found the finishing striker they have been looking for for a long time with Lewandowski. I don't know how much budget he has, but transfer to defense will definitely happen.

I hope so, azpilicueta has become the most important part in the chelsea. Tuchel already made a statement if the player must not be leaving from the club. Azpili is a very good defensive players along with the marcos alonso. Both have linked with rumour to join with barcelona but im pessimistic if that rumour will come true. This time another rumour was coming again. So many rumours about kounde, marcos and azpili were making tuchel feel so bad with it.

Azpilicueta is very important to Chelsea.  I don't think he will leave the team.  It would be a big surprise if he leaves the team.  Barcelona will take advantage of this opportunity and look for every opportunity to add him to their squad.  The Spanish star is a very important left-back.  Barcelona are transferring important players in this transfer period.  Even without Azpilicueta, the players they will get will make a sound.

Barcelona is strengthening their forwards. One of the best strikers in the world is now in Barcelona. Xavi's only goal now is to strengthen his defense. But neither team is interested in selling their key defenders. And so Xavi is yet to find the talented defenders he needs for his squad. Chelsea is reluctant to let César Azpilicueta go. César Azpilicueta plays a very important role in Chelsea's defense. As Chelsea are not at all interested in selling César Azpilicueta. So I think César Azpilicueta will not be able to get Xavi into the team.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Today the result of the friendly game between Barcelona and Real Madrid caught my attention, it was a very successful game, it was possible to see Lewa's debut with his new team, and at least that brought him good luck, however the Real Madrid did not come out in principle with all its arsenal of players, and was very close to tying the game, I think that Real Madrid is saving itself with all its level, and as it is a friendly match there was some friction that made the match It would return much more exciting, I think that in the League it will be very interesting to see this classic again, for me this is one of the most important matches in world football. Congratulations to Barcelona for winning by the minimum 1-0.
