La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Z-tight]

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.

It is just a coincidence that Real Madrid could not score more than one goal since Benzema returned to the team, it does not have too much meaning, and i am sure the players and coach is not even looking or thinking about that.

A great club like Real Madrid cannot put one big tournament first before the other, they should have the quality and depth in their team to concentrate on the two tournaments and try to win it, and they do. Both the champions league and La Liga is very important to Real Madrid and every season they play the best way they can to try and win the both of them.

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.

Elche is currently the worst team in La Liga and most chances they could be relegated because they fail to win any game in first eight rounds which is surely giving all view about their performance here Mallorca missed penalty give them lost of two points which were surely had good impact on their position in league table even they were in all control with better attack and ball possession both were in their control but still fail to convert their chances into goal.

A match with have around one dozen cards and one dozen corner kicks end in poor way with just have 2 goals on board from both teams now in next round Elche is going to face Valencia which is also performing good and will take their full three points from this match against the worst side in La Liga.

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.

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.

Xavi's target is definitely the La Liga title. But a first-round elimination from the Champions League is a shame for Barcelona. Barcelona have spent a lot of money to strengthen the squad. They will definitely not want to be eliminated from the first round. So now their main goal is to win against Inter Milan. Barcelona will play against Inter at Camp Nou. Barcelona are always strong in home matches. On the other hand, Inter Milan will want to share the points by playing defensively. Winning this match is very challenging for Barcelona.

Barcelona have won their last two away matches against Real. And so Barcelona players will be very confident against Real Madrid. And the match will be very competitive. It is difficult to predict which team will win.

Xavi is more concerned about the Champions league than Laliga Title and will do everything in his power to secure three point against Inter in the second leg of champions league group stage because the chances of Barcelona moving to the knockout stage strongly depends on the match. As for the El Classico Madrid is more emotionally prepared than Barcelona because Barcelona's focus at the moment is to save themselves from not qualifying. And after then they will just have 3 days to train in preparation for the El Classico. Xavi is under heavy tension at the moment in which Madrid can use to their advantage

The lack of goals experienced by Madrid since Benzema's injury is a big problem that Ancelotti must immediately fix. Madrid's alternative striker stock is currently unable to cover the big hole left by Benzema. Ancelotti must find a new striker in the transfer market in the middle of the season, otherwise Madrid will be very difficult to compete in all competitions, unless Benzema returns to appear on fire.

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.

It is important to note that the problem exists for both teams. As far as the attacking and defending sides are concerned, both of them are not doing very well at all. To be honest, I think that Real Madrid's defense looks pretty terrible. This season, they have not been able to perform well defensively. As far as I know, they have only kept one clean sheet so far this season. The reason why Barcelona has a more favorable goal difference than Real Madrid is because of this factor.

There is no doubt that Barcelona is not a safe place. It will be decided in the next match who will be the actual leader of La Liga. As well, I do not understand why people are expecting so much from Karim Benzema. He is a 34 year old man and it is easy for him to sustain an injury at this age. But Barcelona also does not look very encouraging at this moment. Right now, the attack is not well coordinated with Barcelona.

Barcelona's victory over Celta Vigo in the eighth week of this season made Barcelona at the top of the standings by shifting Real Madrid. The competition between the two big teams is very interesting to be able to occupy the top of the Spanish league standings. and Next week the two teams will have an El Clasico match that all their fans will certainly be waiting for. The first EL Clasico of the season will take place at Real Madrid's headquarters at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium. we will see an incredibly fierce match to grab the top of the standings.

The competition between Madrid and Barcelona on who maintains the standing and both club are pressing harder towards maintaining the top standing. El Classico will be a new season prove of dominance and strength and Since it will be at Santiago Bernabeu it might end in favour of Madrid because the lost the last El Classico at Santiago Bernabeu and will not want to repeat the saga.

El Clasico this season will be very different from last season, because now both teams can be said to have the same strength, while last season as we know Barcelona are at a disadvantage. A hot match will definitely happen, friction between players also has great potential in this match, because El Clasico is not just an ordinary game, they also bring great prestige. Maybe it could be said that their pride is at stake in this derby match.

But last season Barcelona managed to beat Real Madrid 0-4 even though Barcelona were not at their best. But of course I also hope this season will be more interesting for El Clasico considering the strength of the two teams is quite balanced. Barcelona have great strikers, good wingers and capable midfielders, so I can expect a tense match.

Barcelona are playing at home, they will probably really want to win and make no mistakes, but Real Madrid are a strong team so it's hard to expect them to fail to score. Both teams will score, that is a good possibility to hope for but I think Barcelona will probably win. Well, this is just my opinion.

Obviously they have to do that now because in any case a win is a must for Barcelona considering their points in the Champions League are so worrying.
Their points have now been lost to Inter and Bayern and with things like this if they drop points again it is certain that a second Europa League is waiting for them.
With a squad that is considered as one that can be competitive for the Champions League, it seems that Barcelona is still struggling with that.

Barcelona have won their last two away matches against Real. And so Barcelona players will be very confident against Real Madrid. And the match will be very competitive. It is difficult to predict which team will win.

The problem is that when they are eliminated, they will clearly give the same opinion as last season, especially if they are eliminated again before going to the knockout phase, this is clearly detrimental for them in terms of finances, I think.
last season they were out of the Champions League and in the Europa League and that cost them 20 million euros in revenue and if this season they get knocked out again then obviously they will lose that money again and make them more difficult from a financial point of view of course.

El Clasico this season will be very different from last season, because now both teams can be said to have the same strength, while last season as we know Barcelona are at a disadvantage.

The problem is currently Barcelona with the condition of the players.
Against Inter in the Champions League they had to appear all out so it was difficult with the condition of their players who are now in critical condition due to several injured players having to play in total also in El Clasico.

[Zackgeno96]

For Barcelona it will feel like a liberation that they are back to playing football after all those lean years. Even with Messi in the team a few years ago, the level was nowhere to be found. There was too much football in the service of Messi. Koeman couldn't get the team working, Xavi did. It's great that he succeeded because he actually had quite limited experience with being a trainer. He has of course been a player for Barcelona for a long time so was already familiar with the hierarchy in the club. I am curious how the meeting with Real Madrid will go, for both teams this seems to be the first real showdown. The winner is the leader of the competition. The bookmakers estimate Real Madrid slightly favorite, but they are currently behind in the CL against Shaktar Donetsk.

Yes, El Clasico matches always present hot tension for both teams.
But in my opinion, this season their feud is alive again, because the same points and elbows to lead the standings are the reasons that make this match the center of attention of many people. In addition, the interesting thing to look forward to is the meeting of two European kings of goals, Karim Benzema and Robert Lewandowski.

El Clasico is indeed a prestigious match that is very thrilling because the good name of the club is at stake here, with its new strength Barcelona is strong no one can beat even Real Madrid the football legend is not able to stop Barcelona, which is currently at the top of the standings and is able to survive as a champion. number one, most likely Barcelona has the potential to be the winner of this league.

It will really be a shame to see Barcelona drop out of the champions league group stages at this point in time especially with the level of quality in the team in terms of players available in the team so they will not want to be eliminated but it will be a tough one for them with the quality teams they are competing against. Winning the game is very vital now to secure at least a second place position in the group stages.

But looking at Madrid's current condition, it seems they are more prepared because in terms of players they are far more complete than Barcelona in this El Clasico.
Barcelona are struggling quite a bit, apart from a hectic schedule and having to play against some strong clubs they are also faced with injuries to some of their core players which I'm not too sure about for them.
The match will definitely be exciting but if I choose I'm more inclined to Madrid for El Clasico which will be held this week.

[Furious 7]

Yes, El Clasico matches always present hot tension for both teams.

In addition, the interesting thing to look forward to is the meeting of two European kings of goals, Karim Benzema and Robert Lewandowski.

We know that El Clasico is always a very interesting thing in La Liga and now Madrid and Barcelona are on a positive trend and of course different from last season.
Apart from the intensity of the club with a history that is always tangled, Benzema and Lewandowski are now another spark.
Currently, the long-awaited thing is in sight because it is only a matter of waiting for a few more days to see this prestige condition be implemented.

Real Madrid performance tonight against Sharktah Donetsk is not clear and convincing to me. Infact even before this match I noticed that their performance dropped and also their number of goals per match also dropped. This is not only for Real Madrid, also Barcelona has been struggling in Champions league and I think it will also affect their performance in the El Clasico. This therefore means that we can rather witness a boring and goaless draw El clasico against the lively match everyone is anticipating.

Barcelona are struggling quite a bit, apart from a hectic schedule and having to play against some strong clubs they are also faced with injuries to some of their core players which I'm not too sure about for them.

Real Madrid has 1 key player who gets injured (Courtois). He is expected to return on October 15.
Barcelona has 3 center backs injured, but Kounde seems to be available before the El Classico.
Kessie is also expected to return on October 14.

If all expected players are available before the El Classico match, both teams will have complete key players in their lineups. So, I think both Real Madrid and Barcelona will be well prepared.

Regarding their current performances, I think both Real Madrid and Barcelona look convincing, they are in a good shape. Although Barcelona was just defeated by Inter Milan, I don't think it will bring a big impact on El Classico result. El Classio match is always unpredictable, even Real Madrid is a superior team, it won't guarantee to win. Don't forget that Real Madrid experienced many times lose at home.

With their spending on player transfers that can be said to be very large it is clear that it would be the worst thing if they were to be knocked out of the Champions League for the second time for Xavi in 2 consecutive seasons.
They were said to be strong candidates at the start of the season due to the arrival of a lot of star players and Xavi was deemed capable of competing but at the moment the conditions are quite difficult as they really have to look for a win and have to make the most of every moment in their remaining Champions League matches.

It actually happened for Barcelona btw, look at their performance after losing some key players in their starting line-up which has clearly declined apart from the victory against several La Liga clubs who can be said to be quite far below them and the defeat against Inter in the Meeting first this clearly shows that they are not doing well.
I personally saw this condition and maybe it will be at odds for Madrid later.
