La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Pandu Geddon]

They Barcelona aren't facing Manchester City already hmmm ? Have the Champions League draws been decided and drawn out already ?
~

With talks about Bernado Silva, I see they Barcelona are ready to do without Frankee De Jong.

they met today, not for the Champions League game. but for a friendly match. and the result is quite good because Barca also managed to draw Man City 3-3.
I didn't follow the match but if you look at the statistics of the match, the two seem to be evenly matched on almost all fronts.

Regarding the De Jong problem, I think this has been dragging on. but I believe Barca's financial problems will gradually be resolved. the team's performance has started well, and they are very confident for this season.

Some clubs in the Premier League have now experienced an increase in performance, including Manchester City. From that match I already thought that it would be difficult for Barcelona to win in the Champions League when they met Manchester City, even though the Champions League had not yet started. I'm sure that Barcelona will have a little trouble against Manchester City in the Champions League if some of the players who scored those goals are sold by Barcelona.

Let not go there some of the big clubs in the premiere league have under performed in the last week outings and even Manchester city has dropped from the top position and Arsenal has taken over that position because of their performance in the last game.

But coming to La Liga Real Madrid has not witnessed any challenge in winning the games and staying at the top, and this season La Liga seems to be the most stable league with fewer surprises from the big team unlike in the premiere leagues that have been full with a lot of surprises where Manchester United os beating a big club like Liverpool.

La Liga has only been running for 2 weeks, it is difficult to map the team's strength at this time. Real Madrid didn't have many big changes in their squad. it can make them appear consistent as last season.
there are not many changes that we see in La Liga. What surprised me the most was the poor performance of Atletico this season in La Liga.

I agree when I say Premier League teams have improved, but the improvement was made by teams that are considered not too big. On the other hand, the team that is considered the favorite does not even show anything special about them, in other words they are walking in place or you could even say they have experienced a decline. This is not surprising when it comes to the English Premier League.
Maybe in the Champions League it would be a little different.

You can't say the opposite. Premier League is called as the most interesting league that I agree. Even I don't like Premier League, I can not deny the fact that it is a biggest league and most interesting one in last decade.

It has more competitiveness among top clubs than too much domination in La Liga by Real Madrid and Barcelona, Ligue 1 by PSG, Bundesliga by Bayern Munich. Serie A looks to have more competitiveness amongst clubs but it's because no actually stronger clubs than others. So Serie A can not compare to Premier League about quality and competitiveness.

But Premier League have issues to win Champions League. Real Madrid suddenly have become great again after they won the Decima and here they go with 4 more Champions League after that.

Of course there is no guarantee for any team in the league to have a wonderful season. Consistency is key for the teams fighting for the league title. For example I assume most of us expected a comfortable win from Barcelona against Vallecano. Their performance was very impressive to do so as well but Vallecano were lucky to get one point anyway. This kind of results are a part of football. However hopefully they shouldn't have the same incident against Valladolid as well.

You said it right and yes I agree with you. All teams hope to get maximum points from each match but they can't do anything when their opponent is a big team with better quality players. The only way out is to focus players on defense and prevent more attacks from the opponent until the end of the match while taking advantage counter attacks.

This strategy is widely adopted by mid-table and lower-level team coaches to get points. But I wouldn't say everything will work out when top teams are able to explore mistakes made in defense to score goals. I also hope that the same situation will not be experienced by Barcelona in the next match, especially after they won the match against Sociedad with convincing score.

I don't see any difference for Atletico Madrid this season. Simeone is of course not changing his game plan and their performance is very similar to the previous season as a result. Villarreal punished them really well last week. It was more than most people expected surely. However I was still feeling confident about Villarreal to steal one point at least. Because Atletico Madrid struggled too much in their game here last season as well.

I can see the results of this match is draw but Barcelona almost win the game if Mahrez didn't score goal in the last minutes to equalized but besides that i didn't realized both of teams has been playing for friendly match in the middle of competitions and these results isn't reflected the strength for Barcelona or Manchester City because this is not important match so they mostly playing with their reserved players even Haaland playing as subsititions player and Lewandowski didn't played by Xavi but it would be interesting if both of teams later met on champion league in the same group

Of course Simeone did not change his strategy, meaning that Atletico Madrid this season played with the same strategy as the previous season.
What's different is that Simeone entrusts Alvaro Morata as a starter compared to Antoine Griezmann, but when facing Getafe in the previous match,
Morata played very well by scoring two goals. But when facing Villarreal, Morata's performance declined and could not score a goal. Actually,
Atletico Madrid's defeat was not entirely Morata's fault, who was unable to score goals, but Simeone's strategy looks outdated and easy to read
by Villarreal. I think Atletico Madrid underestimated the Villarreal players who have very fast wingers, Atlético Madrid should not play with 3 defenders,
it makes it easy for Villarreal's front line to enter Atletico Madrid's defense. That's why Villarreal could create more chances than Atletico Madrid,
and finally Villarreal managed to beat Atletico Madrid. Hopefully Atletico Madrid learn from the defeat against Villarreal, and Simeone can think of
a more effective strategy.

[boris singer]

actually losing Casemiro was unexpected. because so far Casemiro has played very well and contributed a lot to Real Madrid. so indeed Barcelona will benefit from this. But Real Madrid always have a backup plan and their tactics are always effective. although now i tend to see the biggest chance to win is barcelona. because we know the row of players in the barcelona team is really an extraordinary composition. So far in La Liga this season I haven't seen anything surprising. different from in the premier league where every game there is always something surprising. so for me now it's easier to bet on La Liga and avoid betting on Premier League.

I don't think this is unexpected because it will be like this when you see a big offer and an abundant salary, so what is the reason not to change clubs, especially since he has also been in Madrid for quite a long time. Because I still feel in Madrid there are only two options. first go when there is a more profitable opportunity or indeed he survives until thrown away because many examples have been like that.
Casemiro knew he had to leave because it was an advantage for him that even if he was labeled as a player who cares about money it doesn't matter in my opinion as long as he is happy with it.

We don't hear about Atletico Madrid buying potential players, I think Simeone is confident in the squad that is already there.
The season is still very long, we have to wait at least half of the season to be able to say whether Simoene's tactics are right or wrong, but I think this season the competition for La Liga is tougher than last season.

I'm sure that Barcelona will have a little trouble against Manchester City in the Champions League if some of the players who scored those goals are sold by Barcelona.

It is not certain that the two will meet in the Champions League, after all, the draw for the Champions League has not yet been decided. It could be Manchester City or Barcelona who fall first. What must be remembered that anything can happen in football, it is very difficult to predict with certainty before these two teams compete. Barcelona and Manchester City have both strengthened their squads this season, in depth Manchester City team may be superior, but not necessarily Manchester City can beat Barcelona easily.

The competition looks indeed quite tight and will certainly give us an interesting spectacle in the future, the competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid will certainly continue as usual, but I am not sure about the current capacity of Atletico Madrid because there are no significant changes on their squad, I personally see that Madrid and Barcelona will dominate the standings later than Atletico Madrid, the squad owned by Atletico does not look promising and just like last season maybe they will  slow run this season.

Yes, Real Madrid haven't changed much this season but their opponents will. One of them is Barcelona, there have been some changes in their team, especially for the front lines and midfielders. Real Madrid certainly can't compare this situation to last season, because maybe this change will threaten Real Madrid's consistency this season.

That is how athletico madrid have operated under diego simeone, they do not make too many high profile signings, diego simeone manages to get enough from the players he has and the ones he signs, too many players don't leave their team too, simeone is a passionate person, so he builds loyal players that give him all they have on the field.

Diego simeone has won the La Liga two times with athletico madrid, and he always leads them to the champions league, he is a good coach with or without high profile signings, they may not win the La Liga this season, but they will challenge for it, and they are also sure to finish in the top four.

[Vinaa77]

Entering week 3 and everything looks normal, nothing stands out from the results of the match in the La Liga team. Especially at Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico. Even though some of them have drawn and even lost, I still think it's a natural thing because this is the start of the season where the team's strength has not been fully formed. As long as their gameplay still seems to be improving, of course we still need time to see how powerful they are.

La Liga was not as competitive as the current Premier League and Serie A. The title competition is dominated by Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​but since the financial storm hit El Barca, La Liga last season felt so empty. I hope and believe, this season La Liga will make the competition more lively. Barcelona this season has built a squad to be able to challenge Madrid. In an early match like this, it is not a benchmark for a team to be successful, at least we will be able to see it until the next half of the season.

[BITCOIN4X]

The competition looks indeed quite tight and will certainly give us an interesting spectacle in the future, the competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid will certainly continue as usual,

I also hope so, El Clasico remains the best game to look forward to in Laliga.

I personally see that Madrid and Barcelona will dominate the standings later than Atletico Madrid, the squad owned by Atletico does not look promising and just like last season maybe they will  slow run this season.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are two teams that have always attracted a lot of audience interest in La Liga so far. The duel of the two has been eagerly awaited, so even if one team is not in a good performance, there can still be stiff competition in El Clasico. This season a massive overhaul was carried out by Barcelona only to increase the chances of the title which was previously far behind to be achieved. Barcelona is expected to be able to compete with Real Madrid in La Liga and Barcelona is also expected to be able to compete in Europe, especially in the Champions League.

I'm really looking forward to this season's El Clasico between Barcelona and Real Madrid. I'm sure Barcelona can do their best, but Real Madrid with all their experience is also noteworthy even though they don't have many new players.

Hopefully, this season will be a lot of fun. Whenever the two clubs Real Madrid and Barcelona clash, they will be the subject of the greatest rivalry. Although these two clubs are the heart of La Liga, Barcelona's performance last year was below par and their finances were downgraded. As Barca's coach, Xavi proved right last season as the team had a good run, so this season they might be able to threaten Real Madrid's consistency.

Barcelona last season was below that standard only until the Koeman era there because when Xavi came in slowly they got back up and this season of course will be very interesting because both teams are really ready to compete now because Barcelona so far you can say they are successful in overhauling the team at the moment.
As for Madrid now they are still something that is quite difficult to achieve because indeed their strength is still very dominating even though at this time the majority of them are young players.

[babo]

I didn’t see the match but it ended in a draw, and what’s strange is all the player’s who scored for Barcelona are the player’s who’re linked with an exit during this transfer window. Furthermore I wonder if this match will have an impact and maybe Barcelona will decide against selling them, but for now Barcelona can take positives from this match as it’s not always easy to keep Manchester City from winning.

Some clubs in the Premier League have now experienced an increase in performance, including Manchester City. From that match I already thought that it would be difficult for Barcelona to win in the Champions League when they met Manchester City, even though the Champions League had not yet started. I'm sure that Barcelona will have a little trouble against Manchester City in the Champions League if some of the players who scored those goals are sold by Barcelona.

because football is strange, think about two seasons ago
two seasons ago Inter were in the acute phase of their financial crisis, they also left the Champions League early and lost a lot of money, the players received their salary late

yet this negative impulse led the players to anger and therefore to the victory of the Italian championship

with people it's like that, I could name 100 other cases
