La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Ahli38]

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.

this will indeed be a match that will determine which team will be superior in points. because the points between barcelona and real madrid are currently really a draw. So the outcome of this match will be decisive. I think the strength of both teams is equally strong. but for each fan, they must see that the team they support is superior. But I myself still can not see which one is superior. because I think this will be a difficult match to predict the outcome. and that's what makes this match so much awaited.

If based on the schedule and the teams that will be faced before and after the El Classico match, it doesn't seem like it will be difficult to predict. Because it's clear where Barcelona have a more difficult opponent and as such, of course Barcelona have high pressure at this moment which will have an impact on their performance. With this pressure, personally it will not be difficult for me to make a choice and will be confident to have Real Madrid to win in this El Classico match, Barcelona was indeed seen as good at the beginning and also its current standings show that they can compete. But with the situation continuing to deteriorate I personally really doubt Barcelona's performance from now on and maybe, Barcelona will continue to get imperfect results because of the pressure that is going on in the team.

If Barcelona can maintain this strategies they are using to achieved victory in their last matches to play their remaining matches, I think they will definitely embrace this la Liga league title to prove to the whole world that they can make it without Messi. I think, Barcelona coach is really working to give the team his best to ensure those strong teams that defeated them last season receive a surprise from them in this season. I don't think, Real Madrid can defeat Barcelona in this season because Barcelona has what it takes to defeat Real Madrid to achieve the victory.

The El Classico would much interesting and entertaining to watch because they're two rivals who haven't lost a game in the league. Real Madrid and barcelona both have what it takes to win the laliga title but one team needs to step down for the other to win. Real madrid don't have squad that their name trends everywhere but they are good on the pitch, they are like players that don't come out to boost about themselves and some of them are underrated giving them more chance to proof themselves. While the barça team have good quality of players but most of them are volatile to injury and some of them one time injury might be probably out of the season.

This match is very crucial for both teams, in addition to their rivalry as the club that has won the most titles in La Liga, this match also marks the distance between the two in the standings, because currently both have the same points.
Seeing the strength that Real Madrid and Barcelona currently have, it is very difficult to predict the outcome of this match. A draw can happen if both teams play carefully, but their ambition is not to draw because they want to dominate the standings while keeping their distance from one of them.

I think Barca's problem is not only related to players who are prone to injury. So far, the victory that Barca got did not come from a strong team. whether consciously or not, Barca only collects their wins from teams that are quite weak. Barca's performance at the moment I guess we have to see it in the UCL.
And when faced Madrid in the El Clasico, I didn't expect Barca to win. Madrid will take advantage to get rid of Barca from the throne.

Barcelona now needs to beat Inter Milan more than a win against Real Madrid. Failing to get 3 points against Inter Milan will make it almost impossible for them to qualify for the knock out round. Barcelona's players will now have a better understanding of how effective they are in critical situations. Barcelona has built the team by spending a lot of money. However, I don't think their performance is very good.

[TopT3ns]

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.

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.

Barcelona might become a favorite but it doesn't mean if it can win la liga easily. We are still far away from the end of season which will give more pressure to the team who placed at the top position like real madrid and barcelona. I just remind you that barcelona was still struggling in the champion league which will give a special pressure to the barcelona unlike real madrid that already ensure its journey to play in the next stage of champion league. Barcelona is still struggling with its performance.
Real madrid can focus in the la liga after that. Im thinking about madrid has more chance to win compared with barcelona. It's caused by real madrid is not getting much pressure at this moment. Some key players of real madrid are also coming back

Barcelona has reliable players, one of which is Robert Lewandowski and some of its flagship players such as Frenkie de Jong, Memphis Depay and Franck Kessié so it is impossible for Barcelona not to take advantage of the situation to become winners in this league, Barcelona is already in first position with five wins in a row. which makes them even more confident that they can win this match. they have to work well as a team to get a winning result.

Not only full of prestige, but the duel will also be a moment of revenge for Los Blancos, who lost 0-4 to Barcelona last season.
Real Madrid has shown consistent performances since the start of the season and will receive full support from the Public of Santiago Bernabeu.
But Barcelona is more confident than ever as Jules Kunde and Frenkie De Jong have recovered from injuries.

El Clasico is a rivalry like no other. It’s a complex cocktail of sports and politics
Where else will you find a player who is thrown with a severed pig's head while time to take a corner kick

But with the situation continuing to deteriorate I personally really doubt Barcelona's performance from now on and maybe, Barcelona will continue to get imperfect results because of the pressure that is going on in the team.

IMO, actually a serious problem faced by Barcelona is regarding the injured core players. otherwise, they will have no trouble playing La Liga matches including El Classico matches.
Before the match against Real Madrid, Barcelona was already under pressure from today's champions league match.
like it or not, Xavi must get full points in this match.
Win or lose against Inter later, Barcelona players will be tired and this can be an advantage for Los Blancos when they host Barcelona later in the El Classico party.

Yes, that's how it is, but I personally don't pay much attention to the basic factors that cause Barcelona's performance to decline, I only consider the results that are not optimal in Barcelona's last three matches. Even though they still got a win in La Liga but the victory was not as easy as imagined and also, the competition factor in the Champions League seems to make Xavi difficult to make the right rotation. Even for today's match against Inter I'm sure all the main players will continue to play, because this is the only way for Barcelona to win and to have a chance to qualify. Because if this result Barcelona loses by Inter then the chance to qualify will be lost, just like what happened with Juventus. With the main players being pressured, it will certainly have an unfavorable impact for the next match in La Liga and the Champions League, because after against Inter then Barcelona will play against Real Madrid, Villarreal, Bilbao, Bayern Munich and Valencia. It's a situation that Barcelona won't feel comfortable in, Barcelona need a second player who can play well if Barcelona want a good result too.

Barcelona players seem to have taken good care of their health and soccer athletes usually only need a short rest and of course balanced with a few sprays that have been prepared to reduce pain because it usually affects tight muscles, although I don't know for sure how do these soccer athletes get treatment at their base camp but I'm sure Xavi has overcome that.

Atletico Madrid are going to have another real challenge in the league against Athletic Bilbao.

It is an away game which is even a bigger difficulty for Atletico. By the way according to the odds, Athletic Bilbao is the slightly favourite side by 2.44 odd. Atletico is given 3.10 and the gap is quite interesting. I would expect very close odds honestly. Athletic Bilbao's solid run in the recent times must be effective in bookmakers' doing this. Or maybe the reason is that Atletico Madrid can't beat them since 2017. This is quite a record for the home team and it looks like they can maintain this unbeaten series this week also.

Almost everyone will really only be concerned with Real Madrid and Barcelona. They are evenly matched and the championship is again exciting compared to last year. What other teams do below that will only really interest the local fans. Atletico Madrid are no longer the team they were a few years ago that started off a rocket when they became champions. They almost gave away the championship that year, when they were about 13 points ahead of the winter break. This year they only have a supporting role. If Atletico is 3rd they have done well. They were last year too, but it didn't look like that for a long time.

Inter gonna be a strong team when it will be facing barcelona in the second leg. So many people have been putting this team as underrated team at this moment. I will try to pick intermilan at this moment. Inter has a key to prevent barcelona to win the battle. the defensive strategy must be used against barcelona to make sure barcelona can give pass to the lewandowski

Bilbao recent performance and the statistics meetings from both of teams placed Bilbao as the favourite and Atletico away matches records actually was not so bad even in La Liga they get 3 wins and once draw from away records so there is a hope for them to improved their records from Bilbao but indeed it wouldn't be easy considering Bilbao also has displayed impressive performance and they can able reach to 3rd position on standings league but don't mean Bilbao so strong in this match because they get 1 lose from home match while against Espanyol but i will more prefer to choose both teams to scores instead of picked who is the winner of this match because Bilbao or Atletico had equal chances to win the game

[terrorJR]

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.

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.

If you see the El Clasico match being held, there really isn't a problem for Madrid, I think because I saw a statement from Ancelotti who said that Courtois would definitely be useless to play during the El Clasico but I haven't seen a statement about Kounde and De Jong hopefully they are also ready to appear.
Because it will be very different if one of these two clubs does not perform optimally in El Clasico, especially since this is a game with great prestige.

I agree, and I foresee that this will be a very even match between the two teams. Athletic de Bilbao could lose their third position in the ranking, while Atlético could claim their (expected by many) position: let's don't forget that in the first page of this thread there is a poll, and only one member voted for Athletic (Other) to win La Liga, while 13 voted for Atlético de Madrid.

Stats are 39% for Bilbao versus 32% for Madrid. This will be one of the most exciting games till the date this season.

[maju69]

The match is quite comfortable for Valencia this week, because they will play a match with the team that occupies the bottom of the standings, Elche. With the opponent they faced should be a match they had already won. Elche even managed to score 4 goals in all the matches they played. There was no doubt that it would be a match they would absolutely win.

[arimamib]

EL CLasico is always interesting and the tension in this match is very high because of the rivalry between the two top La Liga teams, Real Madrid and Barcelona, of course a fierce match will be inevitable, especially since both teams are currently in their best performance.

but I think the points on the standings are not a serious problem because both of them currently have the same points and the competition is still very long, of course because of the rivalry between the two which makes both teams want to win this match and so of course both teams will also play very be careful.

so I don't think there will be any insistent play and making a draw is very possible if you look at the quality of the two teams which are almost the same

El Clasico is the most awaited match by football fans, this match is always interesting to watch because it will always show high tension due to the rivalry between the two teams. Barcelona and Real Madrid will fight each other to get to the first place in the La Liga standings, the defeat of one of them will make the distance of 3 points in the first and second positions.

The first El Clasico this season will be held at the pride of Real Madrid Stadium (Santiago Bernabeu), Real Madrid certainly does not want to be humiliated by the visitors in front of their supporters. Ancelotti will instruct his players to give their best to win over his eternal rival. Barcelona who are at their best also don't want to lose to their arch-rivals, Xavi Hernandez men will try to control the game for the three points at home to Madrid.
It is very difficult to predict the result of El Clasico this time, because both teams are in their best form this season.
