La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[rozak]

I will be very surprised if today's Athletic Bilbao - Almeria match ends with a result other than a clear victory for the hosts. Athletic started the season brilliantly and it seems that if he stays in his present form longer, he has a chance to fight for cup places. Currently, they are 4th in the league, but it should be noted that so far they have only played against rivals from the bottom of the table. Almeria, however, is one of the weaker teams in the league, they lost the last 3 matches and I think that they will not get any points today either.

Almeria just got 1 win in 6 matches. they got it against Sevilla, a team that I don't think is much different in strength from Almeria.
but against Bilbao, it will be quite difficult for Almeria. Bilbao will benefit in this match. Bilbao must continue to win if they want to compete with the teams above them. but to fight for the trophy, I don't think this season is for Bilbao. Barca and Madrid are still the strongest candidates.

The chances of Almeria getting points are very small, because I am very optimistic that Bilbao will beat Almeria easily. Because this season Bilbao is
in a positive trend, Bilbao is in the top 4 and has only lost once in 6 matches. I think it's a very good achievement for a team like Bilbao,  while
Almeria's performance was poor, Almeria suffered 3 defeats in a row and in 6 matches only managed to win once. From the comparison of Bilbao
and Almeria's appearance it is very clear that Bilbao is much better. But if Bilbao underestimated Almeria too much, Bilbao could lose points against Almeria.
Moreover, Almeria had beaten Sevilla, so Bilbao still had to be careful when facing Almeria. As long as Bilbao can put out their best performance,
it looks like Bilbao will have no trouble beating Almeria.

Bilbao are currently performing very well and obviously in this match it will actually be very easy and the bookies have also thought about and favored them over Almeria in this match.
Actually the odds of 1.38 are still a bit better for them now because looking at the statistics in the last 5 matches of the two clubs and the goal ratio created by Bilbao it is clear that this is something very good. I would bet on Bilbao and possibly bet with Bilbao being able to score 2 goals or more.

[skarais]

I think everyone has been talking so much about how Barcelona's poor talent pool or 2nd lineup in case of 1st lineup got injuries. So far, I haven't seen Xavi try to address this.

I don't think players' injuries will really affect Barcelona's performance in the upcoming match, Barcelona have some good substitutes both in defense and in midfield. Araujo's injury will give Pique a chance to play, as will De Jong who may be replaced by Kessie. This season Barcelona have a lot of options for players in defence, midfielders and attackers and I think that will really help Xavi keep his team form this season when their main player is injured.

Barcelona's main and second line-up this season is good, so I don't think there will be big problems in the next few games even though a busy schedule awaits.  I want to focus on the match against Mallorca, so I don't have much reason to worry about the possibility of Barcelona failing to get the 3 points.

In this match, I am willing to bet on Athletico Bilbao to win. My prediction for this match is that Bilbao will win 2-1. Almeria is not the strongest team. They have lost their last three matches. I don't think they can beat a strong team like Bilbao in such poor form. Also, in the last 5 matches between these two teams, Bilbao has won 4 matches and one match has been drawn. If Bilbao can win today's match, they will be able to move to the third place in the points table.

[hahay]

Today's match is about Bilbao v Almeria I personally don't doubt Bilbao to win, because after all this is a very good chance to get full points because Bilbao at this moment is a team competing in the top four. So yes, considering the situation and condition of Almeria it seems that it is indeed difficult for Almeria to get points, apart from the number of injured players they are also still not very strong as a team. But yes, I admit Almeria as a promotion team is at least still in good form, because they have got one win so far but still Almeria is still weak to compete against a team that is ranked better in the standings.

Agree with you. Actually comparing Almeria with Athletico Bilbao is not right. Athletico Bilbao are far ahead of Almeria. Although I can't say how many goals will be scored, I can say that Atletico Bilbao will win by a big margin. Almeria will want to at least draw the match. Good luck to both teams.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Easy money today in La Liga. All home teams won as expected, Mallorca, Barcelona and Valencia. I was expecting Barcelona to score more goals but this is enough for over 2.5 goals bets before the game. Some live bets may be ruined though. Barca and Lewandowski's rise go on. Elche wasn't an opponent that could make trouble for Barca, an early red card made things easier for them. Even if they didn't see them, they still don't have chance against this Barca.
Gavi played only in second half but his contribution was better than Kessie. Ansu Fati is slowly warming up every week, he will be better when he gets more time. Barca passed an easy obstacle and took the lead again but they have to wait for Atletico Madrid to stop Real Madrid to stay in that place.

It's like you say, there are no surprises, but you have to take into account that at least Barcelona cannot fail against these teams, and it's not that these teams are weak, Barcelona has a moral and obligatory duty to win or win against these teams, because there is a large millionaire that was spent and they have to be held accountable because otherwise this team will go overboard, right now they have to win or win, and I think that for now there is no problem, the problem will be when they have They have to be fighting for the first places both in the league and in the UCL, and it really won't be easy for them, Real Madrid is playing a lot.

In this match I agree that this will belong to Barcelona because indeed Mallorca is still quite difficult to steal a win with their current squad which faces Barcelona with a squad that is certainly better. But for the title at the end of the season I don't think they can win at the moment. The league is still quite far away and this can still be said to be the start of the season because it can still be counted on the fingers. Don't forget the current defending champion, Madrid, who still has a good performance so there's no need to be so confident for Barcelona to become champions for now.

For to be champion at the end of the season, each team must consider every match as a final
And Barcelona cannot slip up against a team like Mallorca if they are to move to the top of the table and leapfrog Real Madrid.
That is certainly a motivation for Xavi's squad. Moreover, Mallorca could be without Kadewere, Dominik Greif, and Amath Ndiaye due to injure
But Xavi also has to maintain the physical fitness of his players because in the middle of this week will face Inter Milan in the Champions League.

A visit to Mallorca's headquarters will definitely be a big advantage for Barcelona, ​​at least being able to feel sitting at the top of the standings even if only for one night, because real Madrid also faces the Osasuna club, Real Madrid's opportunity to reclaim the top of the standings is again open, but what happened The spotlight is the Champions League match between Barcelona vs Inter, because if Barcelona are not able to steal points at home to Inter then automatically Barcelona's chances of qualifying from the group stage are very difficult, because the only way to qualify from the group stage is to beat Inter Milan.

On the one hand, I understand very well the need that Barcelona has to take some good steps if it wants to win, it needs it, not only this game but all of them, I could say that we are advocating because a team that made big purchases and with little money (compared with the other teams) is the one that comforted him the most and it would really be a waste of money, time and many things that would give bad results, for me Barcelona's need to win is very great, on the other hand, Real Madrid does not he did no transfers and remains with a team that won the league and the last UCL, I think they are still comfortable as they are until early 2021, when they will see the emergence of new stars and thus be able to buy and make a level 1A team.

The match looks to be in the favor of Real Madrid on paper, the stats show that both teams have a history when it comes to head to head meetings and Real Madrid have always been the better side. But I wouldn’t underrate them, Osasuna have also shown strength sometimes, holding Madrid to a goalless draw which means Osasuna have a chance to get a draw especially now that they have been in very fine form in the league.

I can't deny that Osasuna has done a great job, because their last games have shown a high level in terms of comprehension and scoring, I've also seen that they are more solid in defense, that speaks well, no, I would complain about a good tie with Real Madrid, but now Real Madrid's need to be one of the best makes it even more difficult, however I don't see strong rivals at the moment for both Real Madrid and Barcelona, I think these two teams will be the ones What to talk about from now on, well, if they continue as they are and showing that football, I think that will be the case, I see no doubt about it.

I will be very surprised if today's Athletic Bilbao - Almeria match ends with a result other than a clear victory for the hosts. Athletic started the season brilliantly and it seems that if he stays in his present form longer, he has a chance to fight for cup places. Currently, they are 4th in the league, but it should be noted that so far they have only played against rivals from the bottom of the table. Almeria, however, is one of the weaker teams in the league, they lost the last 3 matches and I think that they will not get any points today either.

In this match, I am willing to bet on Athletico Bilbao to win. My prediction for this match is that Bilbao will win 2-1. Almeria is not the strongest team. They have lost their last three matches. I don't think they can beat a strong team like Bilbao in such poor form. Also, in the last 5 matches between these two teams, Bilbao has won 4 matches and one match has been drawn. If Bilbao can win today's match, they will be able to move to the third place in the points table.

Although I can't say how many goals will be scored, I can say that Atletico Bilbao will win by a big margin. Almeria will want to at least draw the match. Good luck to both teams.

Well I think we all agree that Atletic Bilbao is well above Almería, although these games are of little relevance to some, I think Atletic is doing a good job, their players are focusing on putting up a good attack, and they have everything ready to give more surprises, it is not that Almería is an easy team, if they are in the league and in the first division it is because they can and have the level to get any score, however Almería knows that they have to play with everything so as not to be so far behind because it is dangerous, a few years ago atletic Bilbao was a very, very good team, they had a great level, maybe now they are taking it up again.


On the other hand, something of interest for Real Madrid fans:

Fede Valverde named LaLiga Santander Player of the Month for September

Fede Valverde has been voted the LaLiga Santander Player of the Month for September. The midfielder has started the campaign in scintillating form for Real Madrid, propelling Carlo Ancelotti's charges to produce an almost perfect start to the season.

The capital club have won all six of their LaLiga Santander 2022/23 matches and top the table, with Fede Valverde one of their standout performers, particularly in September.

Personally, I really liked Valverde's performance, he has had great interaction, very good goals and I think that is what makes him make the difference, he is a player who has grown a lot, well but playing alongside a great like Anyone Benzema raises his level and technique, and a club like Real Madrid makes you famous.

[skarais]

I am sure Barcelona will win easily in the next game. Their team is now one of the favorites in the tournament.

I'm in the same ship as other Barcelona fans hoping to win at Mallorca. Of course I'm not worried about Barcelona's performance maybe missing a few players, Xavi can definitely cope with that with a number of other players.

However, Barcelona may face some problems in the El Clasico match. Because some of their players are already injured. Those who always play in the starting eleven and their roles are much bigger. If they can't overcome injuries before El Clasico, I think Barca will be in a bit of trouble.

In the post you quoted, I said Barcelona have enough players to navigate this competition well. This player is expected to be able to contribute well to his team although they seem to be played less often if the main players are not absent. Araujo who is reportedly seriously injured will be replaced by another defender, it is possible that Pique will return to the field to help with defense during Araujo's absence.

Big possibility Bilbao will win, have been favorites too. I also have no doubt the hosts will get the full points, because indeed Almeria still looks very weak. Getting full points in today's match is the most important thing, because the next match Bilbao will be fight to at Sevilla home. For Bilbao's on top 4 position this season tends to be better, I think main target is the Champions League next season, although it is too early to say that.

[X-ray]

The Barcelona squad is more tightened and motivated than the mallorca team as there have not lost any of their games this season and it is easy to predict what the outcome of today's match will be. Many sports bookers gave Barcelona, very small odds because they know this is a sure game for Barcelona to win easily.

No doubt about this. I consider about how good the results from last matches that already achieved by barcelona. That can become a proof if barcelona is still on fire. Mallorca may give barcelona a tough game but i don't even think mallorca will be able to defeat barcelona at any cost. this may be different once mallorca was lucky enough and barcelona was not getting its luck in the match against mallorca. Barcelona may win easily aaginst it. At least 2-0

the next match is Sevilla, will not be much different from Almeria. if Bilbao can do well in today's game. I don't think Sevilla will make it difficult.

Champions League is a very ambitious objective for Athletic de Bilbao, I guess that they would be happy enough if they won the Copa del Rey this year instead.

About today's match, everything indicates that they will win against Almería, especially after Nico Williams' amazing performance with the Spanish national football team this week.

Now Atletico Bilbao is ranked 4th in the standings with 13 points. While Almeria are ranked 16th with only one win. There's a big difference between these two teams. Of course, Athletico Bilbao has the upper hand in this match. They have a positive trend in their last two games, it is a good capital for them. While Almeria have always lost in their last 3 matches, it shows that they are in a slump right now.

Bilbao who is now in 4rd place in the La Liga standings, has great motivation today, facing a team that is in the lower ranks is definitely not a difficult thing for Bilbao, currently Almeria are under pressure after only being able to win 1 win from 6 matches played and I think it will be very difficult for them to come back at this time especially against a team as strong as Bilbao, I really believe that today Bilbao will get full points and make their position even stronger between Barcelona, ​​Madrid and Betis in the top 4 of La Liga.

Hey mate, I'm happy with this great news because Valverde deserves award for his performance.
Federico Valverde so far is very different to last season. His stats are even better especially as he has contributed to 3 goals and 1 assist in Real Madrid's 6 match in Laliga. Last season he didn't score, he only made 1 assist in 31 Real Madrid match.

As a midfielder, Federico Valverde has stood out earlier this season and I think Ancelotti should give him more opportunities to prove his quality. Modric and Kross will eventually be sidelined because of their age, so Federico Valverde will be their successor in the next few seasons considering he is only 24 years old.

[KTChampions]

Real can win both 4-0 and 2-1. Any result is possible, even without taking into account whether the main team or the team with some reserve players will play. If this game was not after the international break, then I would bet on the victory of Real Madrid with a handicap of -1, but most likely -2, but since this is not such a game, it may be generally worth waiting for the game to start and make bet in live mode.

I see no way to call Osasuna weak. Osasuna's performance this season has been fairly stable. They are now the fifth team in the table after winning 5 out of 6 matches. And so it cannot be said that Real Madrid will win easily. However, they have not lost a point in any match so far. However, teams often perform erratically after a long break. And so I wouldn't be surprised if Real Madrid dropped points for the first time in the season.
This is Real Madrid's home match. Real Madrid is strong at the Bernabeu. Madrid is also unbeaten in their last 15 matches against Osasuna. However, Madrid drew 0-0 in the last home match. So Osasuna will play the next match with the goal of a draw.

Osasuna is a good team, but we are talking about weakness in relation to Real Madrid, right? The fact that they are in fifth place does not mean that they are "close" to Real Madrid in terms of strength. No matter how badly Real Madrid's opponents play, there will always be someone in second place. Even if Real Madrid is a million times stronger than everyone else, someone will be in second place, third, and so on. I am sure that if this game was in the Champions League final and it was the last game of the championship (there would be no need to save energy), then Real would have won 10 games out of 10 and the goal difference would have been consistently 3+.

[G_Besar]

Bilbao will get their winning points today. it will put him in competition with Betis and Barcelona. Bilbao must continue to maintain its points so as not to lag far from the top 3 standings.
the next match is Sevilla, will not be much different from Almeria. if Bilbao can do well in today's game. I don't think Sevilla will make it difficult.

Bilbao who is now in 4rd place in the La Liga standings, has great motivation today, facing a team that is in the lower ranks is definitely not a difficult thing for Bilbao, currently Almeria are under pressure after only being able to win 1 win from 6 matches played and I think it will be very difficult for them to come back at this time especially against a team as strong as Bilbao, I really believe that today Bilbao will get full points and make their position even stronger between Barcelona, ​​Madrid and Betis in the top 4 of La Liga.

Four wins in five games have propelled Athletic Bilbao to the top of the table and they will be confident of another win against struggling Almeria. Almeria are finding life difficult in La Liga, They have lost the last three matches. Yes, I predict this match will be won by Athletic Bilbao again.

[izsara]

Elche's current form reminds me of Levante and Alaves last season.
When a small team like this is difficult to secure points at the start of the league then they will forever be difficult because indeed they will not be able to make significant changes due to lack of funding within the club.
Personally, I'm pretty sure that Elche will have to return to Segunda next season because of their performance, I'm not sure they can change that.

Right now Elche is only team in La Liga which fail to win any match and with their current form and look like they have no enough chance for having any win in near future lack of quality and funds surely are going to be the biggest concern for them because now competing in big leagues are not easy for clubs which have no enough funds for bringing good players same happening right now with few clubs like Elche, Cadiz and Almeria even they have good start, but suddenly they are also down with three consecutive defeats which are surely going to have impact on their future.

Espanyol and Valladolid are other teams which are going to be in trouble because right now these five teams are at the bottom and after break all are going to be had challenging time because if these teams wants to be good then surely needs to have better results against teams which are in middle of the league table because this can bring some good interest otherwise they have to go down and out.

True, they are the only club that hasn't been able to win at the moment and as you said they won't be able to win anytime soon due to some of the schemes being put in place and the quality of the players must be tough right now.
For their next match against Rayo Valecano.
Even though Rayo is currently still not consistent, if you look at their performance, they are much better than Elche, so I really don't expect much to return to Elche now as long as their defense is still full of gaps and their attack line lacks the ball supply to score goals.

[Moeda]

As a midfielder, Federico Valverde has stood out earlier this season and I think Ancelotti should give him more opportunities to prove his quality. Modric and Kross will eventually be sidelined because of their age, so Federico Valverde will be their successor in the next few seasons considering he is only 24 years old.

Real Madrid victory over Atletico Madrid is something extraordinary. Because Real Madrid are not equipped with their mainstay striker, Benzema. Carlo Ancelotti puts full trust in the young striker. Up front there are Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Federico Valverde. I think Carlo Ancelotti's strategy in arranging the players deserves our appreciation. Madrid is preparing young players, because some of Madrid's mainstay players such as Benzema, Modric are approaching retirement.

Carlo Ancelotti must be prepared with all risks when fielding young players in several matches, including the most prestigious match, namely UEFA. This is considering that next season Real Madrid have lost senior players. Federico Valverde must be ready for Madrid's future. I think he should start now and fight even harder as long as there are some more experienced senior players.
