La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[onecall123]

Losing players to injuries has always been a problem to every team. Losing seven first team player is a lot of numbers which definitely affect the team Xavi will have to do squad rotation to corb this problem. Playing Madrid at this time will be a tough one to handle especially when most of the injured players are defensive playings and playing against a very good attacking team it will really be tough for Barcelona.

It's true, losing a lot of players is definitely a problem and even though they won in La Liga in their last 2 matches but their score really feels the difference when often seeing at the start Barcelona score very well at least 2 goals in every game and now the gap feels according to I.
Fortunately Xavi can still play well and still bring points even though maybe for the Champions League it is still a little worrying for them.

The performance has been decreasing a lot. It can be seen from how defensive players of barcelona are not doing so good. Xavi was doing some rotations but it must be noted that if xavi was not doing so good at all. El classico will become a very important match to know what to do by barcelona. The fact that if barcelona wanna go all in against intermilan. We will see barcelona will use all of its performance against milan. Seeing so many players from barcelona got injury is a very hard thing to see

Barcelona is at the top, and El Clasico is just around the corner. In the week leading up to El Clásico, FC Barcelona lead the way once again! In order to maintain their lead, Barcelona demands a win in this match. Barca would have already won this El Clasico if its main defenders weren't injured. It appears to be a 50-50 chance that could go either way! If Barcelona plays the same as they did in the last match, they will lose their remaining matches. It is totally frustrating as they not be able to attack, not be able to create chances.

Real Madrid - Barcelona game is closing in now. There are only six days left for the El Clasico. Before this game both of them have Champions League games. Real Madrid are advantageous about this because their current condition in their group is very comfortable. But it is the opposite for Barcelona. They need to win against Inter no matter what to have a big chance to qualify for next round. If they don't manage to finish the game early then this would cause a quite much fatigue.

But I still don't think of betting on any side. Both teams to score has a quite nice odd like 1.50 to bet on. If this doesn't happen it would be a big surprise I think.

I think, the two teams will definitely achieve goals from this match because no matter how strong Barcelona defense strong in this season Benzema will surely achieve a goal from the match, and likewise to Barcelona, no matter how strong Real Madrid defense strong in this match, they will surely achieve a goal from the match. Real Madrid will defeat Barcelona 2-3 for the favour of Real Madrid, because Real Madrid still have more potential players than Barcelona, which will be one of the advantage Real Madrid will use to achieve victory at the end of the match.

I think, the two teams will definitely achieve goals from this match because no matter how strong Barcelona defense strong in this season Benzema will surely achieve a goal from the match, and likewise to Barcelona, no matter how strong Real Madrid defense strong in this match, they will surely achieve a goal from the match.

Both teams are very likely to score goals in the upcoming El Clasico match, it is because of the quality of the current players. In their respective last matches, Real Madrid and Barcelona struggled to score more than one goal against Getafe and Celta Vigo but they won the match albeit by one goal.

Real Madrid will defeat Barcelona 2-3 for the favour of Real Madrid, because Real Madrid still have more potential players than Barcelona, which will be one of the advantage Real Madrid will use to achieve victory at the end of the match.

In the last El Clasico match, Barcelona managed to beat Real Madrid 4 goals at the Santiago Bernabeu. But for this season's El Clasico, I'm not completely sure whether Real Madrid will also lose or they will win this match. I expect Real Madrid to lose in El Clasico this season, obviously this is because Barcelona's performance is getting better in Laliga.

If you say Real Madrid have potential players in their squad, then I would also say that currently Laliga's top scorer is Lewandowski with 9 goals. Both teams have good players, so I won't feel lacking in either team so honestly I really expect a great atmosphere for this first El Clasico without underestimating the other team.

Seeing so many players from barcelona got injury is a very hard thing to see

I don't think Barcelona problem is defence problem, the problem I  seeing in Barcelona is that they are scoring less goals and conceding less goals also. This means it is not a defensive problem. The Barcelona staring Lewandowski is not getting as good goals he was getting when the league started. If he could step up with Rephina, Dembele, Fati and others, the team will be able to get good goals. I don't even know the injured players but there's constant rumour of injuries in Barcelona team.

Real Madrid odds are slightly better than Barcelona. Their games in Champions League require more effort from Barcelona's players comparing to Real Madrid's one. Yet everything could happen obviously. I find Barcelona better but sometimes the concentration level is a bit lower which leads to disasters like what happened in Inter's match. Now in the next game vs Inter, it will be bad if Barcelona lose again.
After 8 rounds in La Liga, Barcelona received only 1 goal at the opposite of CL where they received 4 in 3 games.

Yes, Real Madrid's chances are better and more prepared to face the El Clasico match later than Barcelona.
Los Blancos already have perfect points in the champions league group, it is quite advantageous for Don Carlo's squad to be more concentrated in La Liga.

Unlike Barcelona, ​​they must concentrate on the Champions League match before they travel to the Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid's home ground. meaning, Xavi's attention will be devoted to the champions league match before thinking about the El Classico party.
Barca must win this match over Inter, but if they lose. Barcelona is unlikely to have any chance of qualifying for the next round.  Xavi's attention will automatically be devoted to the La Liga trophy.

[blue_hurricanger]

Honestly, I don't expect Barcelona to win the El Clasico. Above all else, I think that Barcelona's first target will be to win against Inter in the Champions League. Because after that unexpected loss against Inter last, they are three points behind them in the group. If they lose points again they might really find themselves in the Europa League two times in a row. This would be really a mockery for most people.  

I feel like Real Madrid won't lose in Santiago Bernabeu to them no matter what kind of a result Barcelona get against Inter. I expect Barcelona players to be quite fatigued after the Inter game. I don't expect the same from Real Madrid players against Shakhtar because they are already in a safe condition in the lead. I don't think Ancelotti would like to wear out his players too much right before the El Clasico. I'd just prefer to add both teams to score to my parlay and enjoy the El Clasico.

Odds-wise, Real Madrid overall did seem to be stronger than Barcelona. But then again, as I've said before, Xavi was kind of cautious so they did not get many goals over their matches, even with a team that much weaker.
Don't let that fool you into thinking Barcelona's ability to score looked weak. Moreover, Barcelona's defensive lineup is the best in La Liga right now. Will be interesting to see how Real Madrid's Benzema and Mariano Díaz penetrate it. If they can't Barcelona can push it to a draw or score just 1 goal if they got lucky and hold the games to buy time with their defense.

Barca must win this match over Inter, but if they lose. Barcelona is unlikely to have any chance of qualifying for the next round.  Xavi's attention will automatically be devoted to the La Liga trophy.

Right now, getting full points against Inter Milan is more important to Xavi than a win against Real Madrid. Because if Barcelona lose against Inter Milan in the Champions League, their qualification for the round of 16 will be completely uncertain. Barcelona will surely want to have a first round exit from the Champions League despite having such a strong squad. I believe Barcelona will play well today and get 3 points against Inter.

Barcelona's attacking players will definitely need to perform well if they want to earn full points against Inter. Because in the last two matches of the Champions League, Barcelona has not been able to score any goals. Barcelona lost two matches due to poor performances from the attacking lineup's players.

That is a certainty because indeed if they cannot get full points against Inter in the match later then it is certain that they cannot qualify for the next stage because indeed I am still pessimistic when they face Bayern so wins against Inter and Plzen must be obtained.

Real Madrid is quite important to win because there is prestige there but when you see the league is still far away and there are still many opportunities then it is better for them to focus on the Champions League.

I agree with you on this. The two teams are in good form and they are currently on the same point but Barcelona is topping the league with goals difference, going with their goal-scoring and conceding statistics (goal for and against), Barcelona has scored a total of 20 goals with 1 goal against while Real Madrid has 19 goals with 7 goals against. Since the two teams are goalscoring teams, there is a possibility for both teams to score each other regardless of the player that score the goals but seeing Benzema and Lewandoski as the hitmen in the teams, we could see their names on the score sheet or they do the dirty job for other players to score.

Having dug up some facts about their history, Real Madrid has not lost to Barcelona at home in recent years so the match could have a bts with Real Madrid winning the game to top the league or Barcelona winning the game to stay 3 points ahead of Real Madrid, it's a derby match the chances of any of the teams winning depends on the performance of the team and the utilization of the chances created by the team.

The Barcelona match is not today but tomorrow but yes, apart from the schedule of course there is no other choice for Barcelona because they need a win. Because on paper Barcelona only has the chance to win when playing against Inter and Plzen, so if Barcelona still can't win against Inter then the chance is over for Barcelona. If that happens, it looks like it will be a regret for Lewandowski who previously forced or urged to join Barcelona, but in the end had to fall out of the group stage in the Champions League and of course it was a nightmare because of the wrong choice.

Real Madrid have issues to score goals because of Benzema's injury. They managed to win matches and other players cover the absence of Benzema very well. However, it is different in total goals they can score, much less than the past season.

Goal difference is only important if at the end of season, two teams have same total points and no team is better in two direct matches between them. At the moment, goal difference is not too important and the trophy is not given in October.

Having dug up some facts about their history, Real Madrid has not lost to Barcelona at home in recent years so the match could have a bts with Real Madrid winning the game to top the league or Barcelona winning the game to stay 3 points ahead of Real Madrid, it's a derby match the chances of any of the teams winning depends on the performance of the team and the utilization of the chances created by the team.

Barcelona had a bad record when facing Real Madrid recent seasons and it is reasonable as we know their general performance in past few seasons is down. Their club was in crisis before the appearance of Xavi Hernandez at the coach position. No good or bad streak can last forever and who knows, this season will be the first one Barcelona can beat Real Madrid at Bernabeu in recent seasons.

[Velvet78]

It is a fact that Real Madrid couldn't score more than one goal in their last two La Liga games. But they were able to score more before these ones in the absence of Benzema as well (e.g. 4 goals vs Mallorca, 2 goals vs Betis).

Considering that I think the reason of this might be related to their thinking of the Champions League games as well. They need to keep things balanced in the end and maybe they don't want to push hard in the La Liga as long as they are able to win a game one way or another. But it is the truth that Benzema is a big factor that helps the number of goals the team score increase more in most of the games.

[KTChampions]

Barca must win this match over Inter, but if they lose. Barcelona is unlikely to have any chance of qualifying for the next round.  Xavi's attention will automatically be devoted to the La Liga trophy.

Due to the fact that there is a team in the group that is more likely not to score a single point, Barcelona, even if it does not reach the playoffs of the Champions League, will fall into the Europa League. Xavi said last year that it would be nice to win the Europa League, so I don't think that after the Champions League group stage Real and Barcelona will be in a different position - both clubs will continue to fight in Euro cups and neither will have extra rest compared to the competitor.

Ancelotti must see this fact as a problem that must be resolved immediately considering Real Madrid will soon play in El Clasico. Barcelona as one of the most prolific teams in La Liga could embarrass Real Madrid if their attackers can't score more than one goal in every game.
Real Madrid must not rely too much on Benzema when scoring goals, they must take the slightest opportunity without having to pass the ball to Benzema feet. El Clasico match is very important for Real Madrid to regain control of the first position in the standings, because currently Real Madrid and Barcelona have the same number of points in the standings list.

[Jody.Drummer]

If that happens, it looks like it will be a regret for Lewandowski who previously forced or urged to join Barcelona, but in the end had to fall out of the group stage in the Champions League and of course it was a nightmare because of the wrong choice.

I don't see it will be a regret for Lewandowski when Barcelona fail in the Champions League. Because if the goal is the Champions League then he will still choose to stay at Bayern Munich, because last season Bayern Munich's chances are bigger than Barcelona. His great desire to defend Barcelona will not affect Barcelona's failure in the Champions League, because there are many other targets he wants to get in Spain. He must have considered that, so it's not a problem for Lewandowski.

But it is the truth that Benzema is a big factor that helps the number of goals the team score increase more in most of the games.

I'm not too surprised when I see Real Madrid don't score a lot in every game, because their goal is to win not how many goals they score, maybe it will cost them when they have to determine the position in terms of goal productivity. Not only have Real Madrid not scored enough goals but they have won a lot of games through their frequent comebacks. I hardly worry when they have to go behind, because their stats on turning things around are very high, in fact they scored a lot of goals at the end of the second half.

[X-ray]

Elche are playing right now and they are winning against Mallorca, judging by the performance of Elche this season, Mallorca can turn the tables on them, but as always I like to go with a safe bet which is Mallorca to score, the odds of it are decent @1.74, I think it's worth it for sure, Mallorca are dominating and I can see a goal coming.

as i expected, Elche couldn't win the match and protect the 1-0 lead, the red card made things even worse of them, because even before that and they were struggling to keep Mallorca away from their goal, i don't think we will see Elche in La Liga next year with this performance.

Im sure about that. Elche is even worst compared with cadiz. There was a three points gap between elche and cadiz. This will become a very strict competitions for both of team who placed at the bottom of standing in laliga. I just wanna know what will be doing by elche to surpass cadiz. So many matches already passed but elche was still struggling with the worst performance. This team never win but only got two draws during all of matches that already happened.
What a mediocre team for this season in la liga. I see a small chance for elche to play in laliga for next season.

Ancelotti must see this fact as a problem that must be resolved immediately considering Real Madrid will soon play in El Clasico. Barcelona as one of the most prolific teams in La Liga could embarrass Real Madrid if their attackers can't score more than one goal in every game.
Real Madrid must not rely too much on Benzema when scoring goals, they must take the slightest opportunity without having to pass the ball to Benzema feet. El Clasico match is very important for Real Madrid to regain control of the first position in the standings, because currently Real Madrid and Barcelona have the same number of points in the standings list.

Their record is the same, one series of seven wins. But this week they are busy preparing for UCL. Barcelona are struggling in their UCL lost two times in three match. I think right now Barcelona's focus is on the UCL. They try to take three points in every match. As for Real Madrid, they are better at UCL. Madrid's chances of qualifying are very open. I think the El clasico issue they'll think about after UCL later. I don't know yet if Benzema will play at El Clasicco later, but I'm hear if De jong and Kounde ready to go against Madrid.

[wiss19]

I think, the two teams will definitely achieve goals from this match because no matter how strong Barcelona defense strong in this season Benzema will surely achieve a goal from the match, and likewise to Barcelona, no matter how strong Real Madrid defense strong in this match, they will surely achieve a goal from the match. Real Madrid will defeat Barcelona 2-3 for the favour of Real Madrid, because Real Madrid still have more potential players than Barcelona, which will be one of the advantage Real Madrid will use to achieve victory at the end of the match.

Both teams having one of the most lethal attack package in La Liga and their performance was at the top but after international break now both are facing problems as having not good record which is surely going to have some impact on this El Classico as well because injuries and long season ahead which needs good strategy for having players in better shape important for both teams before this El Classico both teams are going to play matches in Champions League where Real Madrid is currently had solid position as they are leading their group.

But, Barcelona needs to do hard work for beating Inter if they want alive their chances for Champions League but as mostly peoples are expecting they have more intention about La Liga instead of Champions League this all will be clear in next few days how their response in their match and are they capable of going to double in this season, or they could be fight only for La Liga title.

The work of Barcelona will be even greater before they play an el clasico match. This is because their chances are slim if they are not able to beat Inter Milan. Victory is the only way if they still want to play in the Champions League this season. While Real Madrid will be easier, I consider this to be a strengthening of their game before El Clasico later.
Real Madrid must prepare well because they have the advantage of a tough Barcelona game in the Champions League. They have to see it as an opportunity for them.

The fate of the two clubs Barcelona and Madrid this season is almost the same, at least Madrid did not do a lot of big enough aggression like last season but is now able to be in second position. Barcelona is still not safe enough at the moment. As for Ancelotti, whoever coaches Real Madrid, the players will still have the quality and mentality to win. For now, Benzema has been unproductive after picking up an injury, and Ancelotti broke Vinicius to continue to fill the void. Maybe next game Benzema can get back to his best. Or indeed they are after the Champions League first, then play optimally in La Liga.
