La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Wawa2013]

Real Madrid took the lead a few minutes before half-time. We are only in the 50th minute, but I think we can say that this game is now over. I don't expect much more from Osasuna. Scoring 1 goal is going to be a big job. Madrid will now be able to score a few more goals for the goal difference. And also not unimportant, they take the lead again from Barcelona, which was only allowed to be at the top for a short time. I think it will be for a few more weeks that both teams will win everything, but soon we will have the game against each other. How would that go?

Real Madrid is not playing very well against Osasuna. The match is now tied at 1-1 after 70 minutes. So are Real Madrid going to drop points for the first time in the season? Osasuna is playing well. They are playing defensively and successfully countering every attack from Real Madrid. Real Madrid will lose their top spot in the points table if they fail to win this match.

In my opinion, Real Madrid have fielded the best players they can play against Osasuna. But unfortunately Real Madrid failed to win, Real Madrid could
only draw against Osasuna. Even Osasuna got a red card in the 78th minute, and Real Madrid got a penalty, unfortunately Benzema failed to execute
properly. It seems that in that match Benzema was not at his best. It must be admitted that Osasuna's defense played very well, they could make it
difficult for Real Madrid players to score goals. With Real Madrid dropping points for the first time this season, it ended up making La Liga that much
more interesting. Because now Real Madrid have the same points as Barcelona. This makes the winner of the La Liga trophy even more difficult to predict.
What certain is that El Clasico matches will probably give us an idea of who is more worthy of winning the La Liga trophy.

[G_Besar]

So Real Madrid finally lose 2 points and their 100% win record this season against 10 man Osasuna. This means they are tied with Barcelona on points, with Barcelona being on top because of superior goal difference. Karim Benzema missing the penalty against Hector once again was the highlight of the game.
Vincius Jr was brilliant as usual.

Although still able to maintain an unbeaten record, but the results achieved by Madrid tonight are really very disappointing. Benzema's return to the Whites' squad tonight was not a blessing, instead his penalty failure cost Madrid two important points to stay away from Barcelona.

Now Carlo Ancelotti's troops dropped to second place under rivals Barcelona despite having the same number of points. However, the competition at the top is exciting again every week. Moreover, in the next two weeks they will meet each other in the El Clasico party, which makes this match even more interesting.

Real Madrid 1-1 Osasuna

The Real Madrid team could not win against Osasuna. They drew the match 1-1. And at the same time, Real Madrid lost the top spot in the points table in La Liga. Real Madrid played very well in this match, they attacked a lot. Real Madrid players made a total of 22 shots. But even then they couldn't break Osasuna's defense. The performance of Osasuna's players was very good.

Benzema's performance was very disappointing. Benzema's presence in today's match did not go down well. Benzema also failed to score from the penalty in the 79th minute of the match. If Benzema had scored from the penalty, Real Madrid would have won the match.

Unfortunately, Benzema missed the penalty which was another good chance for Real Madrid to secure the 3 points this week. A draw was really not expected from the start, but in the end this result was inevitable and Ossasuna were really lucky this week to go home with 1 point. In the end Real Madrid had to settle for the result of this weekend's match, things weren't always good for them because dropping points today was completely beyond the expectations of many. Willingly or not, Barca lead the standings this week which should be very disappointing.

Unfortunately, Benzema missed the penalty which was another good chance for Real Madrid to secure the 3 points this week. A draw was really not expected from the start, but in the end this result was inevitable and Ossasuna were really lucky this week to go home with 1 point.

In fact, Real Madrid tried everything to score the winning goal, but their luck was not with them. Benzema couldn't believe he missed the penalty. He had missed two penalties against Osasuna before. He missed 3 penalties against the same team in total in the same year. It was also awkward that the referee couldn't see the penalty in the first time and gave it from VAR. It was a clear penalty.
Afterwards, Real Madrid increased the pressure, but they couldn't score. Osasuna defended well even though there were 10 left. I think the match's fair result was a draw. It was nice that Osasuna got points from this match.
Barcelona is now the leading with average difference. It's almost time for El Clasico. We missed this competition. There was no such competition last year. This season is going well.

[ShowOff]

temporary score 1-0 for real madrid victory which was scored by vinicius through his hard kick. the first half is over and real madrid is already 1-0 up I think in the second half the real madrid squad will be able to add an advantage to close the win in this match. well if they manage to close this match with a win then real madrid will shift for the second time barcelona from the top ranking.

But the fact, Real Madrid's failure in this match has benefited the Catalan team ''Barcelona'', I'm happy with the result even though at the moment Barcelona and Real Madrid are on the same points. Barcelona are ahead of Real Madrid on goals, it makes them lead the standings this week.

Obviously it's been an exciting week for me as Real Madrid's dominance in Laliga seems to be disconnected especially about their winning trend. Today Ossasuna became the first Laliga team to make Real Madrid lose in the last 7 matches, but Real Madrid are still an unbeaten team until the 7th jornada which is the same statistic as Barcelona.

This is the worst comeback possible for benzema after being away from the competition he missed a penalty and scored an offside goal it must been frustrating for him i think being injured for that long of a period had a big role in that missed penalty, but they still has the same points as barcelona so its not that bad of a result i think el classico will be the most anticipated game of the season for football fans all over the world.

I'm very surprised to see Benzema failed to score from the penalty kick. As far as I know, it was something not happening in the last season. I'm afraid that it is a sign of a decrease in Benzema's performance this season. Benzema can't prove that he is still the hero of Real Madrid in this match. Sure, the draw result against Osasuna is very unfortunate. Barcelona is leading the La Liga table now, and it may give extra motivation for Barcelona players to keep their good performance. I assume Real Madrid only can have a higher chance to win the La Liga this season, if they can beat Barcelona in the upcoming El Classico (on matchday 9). However, it will be hard because Barcelona already returns to being a solid and strong team.

Yes, it was a surprise but it really wasn't because Benzema has also failed to score a penalty several times against the same team.

His form hasn't dropped, but not for his goal stats specifically after his return from injury. I think Real Madrid's performance today wasn't too bad, they were just unlucky about goals and I can expect him to do well in Laliga and Champions League in the next match, but I'm thankful he didn't make it today. Lol

Real Madrid vs osasuna that ended in draws is a good advantage to Barcelona.  Osasuna equalising the match against Real Madrid has cause Real Madrid  not to achieve a full point.  Barcelona leads for now.

Even though Madrid are superior in numbers and superior in quality but it's a shame they couldn't make this a win for them because they had to share the points.
This is clearly a loss and it is certain that Barcelona are seeded in this match because they managed to shift Madrid in the top position due to the difference in goal difference.

A bad result, at home to Real Madrid dropping 2 points, I thought Benzema would only play a short time until half time but he didn't. Post-injury Benzema performance I'm afraid it's unstable yet, had Ancelotti replaced him with another player after the first half break the situation might have been different and Real Madrid would have got the full points. Barcelona so happy to see this result, they will continue to be motivated for collect a lot of goals, I also think that Barcelona at this season in league is very strong so Real Madrid will have a hard against Xavi team on Matchday 9.

[Velvet78]

It was really unbelievable for me to see Real Madrid drawing with Osasuna in Santiago Bernabeu once again. After the red card Osasuna got the game became more interesting. First, Benzema missed a penalty. And only two minutes later, his goal was disallowed by offside. They have missed a really big opportunity today and lost the lead to Barcelona. They are sharing the points actually but Barcelona have better goal statistics so far.

The rivalry between these great teams has already heated up. We must see this in El Clasicos as well.

A bit surprised to see that and osasuna gives real madrid a tough game for sure. Getting draw is a bit better rather than loosing against it. It seems like the small club in la liga has been doing so many improvisation for their performance.
Real madrid has a chance to surpass barcelona again when it can win in the el classico but barcelona has a chance to make the gap even bigger with real madrid if barcelona will able to win the el classico.
osasuna was giving a hard game for real madrid. The good thing is at least real madrid can earn 1 point. The competition is very strict

For someone, maybe it was a surprise, but certainly it should not be a surprise for Osasuna, because it was in the match with this club on April 20 that Benzema did not score as many as two penalties However, Real Madrid still won 3-1. The score is certainly quite unexpected, given the status and results of both teams. However, let's not forget that Benzema did not take part in official matches for four weeks and this could also play a role. Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said after the match about this after the match that he thought about changing the player punching the penalty, but Benzema scored two important penalties last season and he is the best penalty taker in the team. And I would still not attach too much importance to who wins the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona. As we saw with the example of this match, there are other teams in La Liga and they also need to be beaten to claim the championship title.

I'm also not only surprised that Real Madrid failed to win against Osasuna, but I'm also annoyed because I lost quite a lot, because I bet
on Real Madrid's victory. I think with the quality of the players that Real Madrid have and their very consistent performance, against Osasuna
should have won easily. And again Real Madrid playing at home, but still the fact that Real Madrid failed to win. But in the world of football
there are always surprises, then that's actually what makes football even more interesting.

Like you said the rivalry between Barcelona and Real Madrid will heat up, because now both teams have the same points. Both teams must
show consistent performance until the end of the season, meaning both Barcelona and Real Madrid have to play more carefully. We are really
waiting for the El Clasico match to find out who is the strongest between Barcelona and Real Madrid. Although the winner of El Clasico will not
necessarily win the La Liga trophy,  but at least there is an idea for us which team deserves to win the La Liga trophy.

A bad result, at home to Real Madrid dropping 2 points, I thought Benzema would only play a short time until half time but he didn't. Post-injury Benzema performance I'm afraid it's unstable yet, had Ancelotti replaced him with another player after the first half break the situation might have been different and Real Madrid would have got the full points.

Yep, it is a truly bad result.
Agree, Benzema shouldn't play full-time, he just recovers from an injury. It should be better to replace him with other players on the starting lineup, Asensio or Hazard can be the alternative. Benzema ideally played in the second half only, so he will have enough power to play with his best. Another surprising thing is that Camavinga sits on the bench. He should play full-time, he is better than Ceballos. I assume Ancelotti choose the wrong players as the starters in this match. As the result, they can't get a full point.

[Velvet78]

Atletico Madrid have gained four positions after defeating Sevilla by a nice result. They have improved their performance recently but consistency is the most important point of course. As for that, Atletico Madrid aren't a very  reliable team but we will see. They aren't far away from Barcelona and Real Madrid for now. They shouldn't be far behind early in the season. They are also competing in the Champions League on one hand just as the other two do.

I think that Atletico Madrid's main target is still the La Liga. Because if they can't fight for the title until the end with a squad like this then they still have a long way to go.

I really did not predict this because indeed this is the worst possibility actually but a draw is inevitable with their dominance which is actually very good and their player advantage.
Osasuna also defended really well in this match they focused on their defense especially after they lost David Garcia in the 78th minute.

[nurilham]

Real Madrid vs osasuna that ended in draws is a good advantage to Barcelona.  Osasuna equalising the match against Real Madrid has cause Real Madrid  not to achieve a full point.  Barcelona leads for now.

I can't deny that Osasuna's performance was very awesome. they could make a very string defense and make a drawn result against Real Madrid in which Real Madrid is the superior one. This is what is always said in the football match, the real result is from the field, not from the paper including the chance.
I am quite surprised by this because I support Real Madrid much.
However, I can't deny that Osasuna could really give very exciting against. I think that Real Madrid was not really in tier good performance.
Through this result, Barcelna is now at the top standing . This board makes more interesting again

that's very bad for real madrid but this is not my first time to see real madrid was performing like this. I have been seeing this so many times when real madrid can't be consistent to win the game against the small club. barcelona may lead the la liga but real madrid is only a few points away from barcelona. The possibility for real to surpass barcelona is always there. It seems like that champion league will become a very hot match for both of clubs.
Barcelona seems a bit better in consistently compared with real madrid for now. At least real was not losing against mallorca
