La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[X-ray]

Lewandowski again listed his name as a goal scorer for Barcelona after failing in the El clasio, last few hours ago Barcelona success won from Villareal 3-0 and Lewandowski made brave for Barcelona and Ansu Fati made one goals for Barcelona victory. Xavi changed with several player composition after not effective at el clasico match, Frankie de Jong and Gavi in starting eleven for midfielder position, attacking line have several changed with Dembele and Raphinha have started at the bench after replacing their position by Ferran Torres
and Ansu Fati.

This victory make 3 points left with Real Madrid until ten games and still have for Barcelona with La Liga tittle in this season, depend several match left later keep consistent.

I saw that and that's better rather than using old composition which has been used against real madrid. the performance is quite better for now. The attack seems become even more effective than before but it seems like quality player of villareal with real madrid was also giving impact to determine the result. 3 points are not so big and madrid needs to be even more consistent to win any match in la liga. Barcelona must also win any game until madrid may not lucky enough to win the game or got draw.
that will give a chance to the barcelona to surpass madrid in la liga. It seems like that madrid is also seriously wanna get la liga for this season.

Basically Osasuna and Valencia are teams that are used to finishing in the middle of the standings at the end of the season, but at this moment Osasuna is in a better position because Osasuna is in sixth place in the current standings. Also, at least Osasuna are in a good trend as they managed to draw against Real Madrid in the previous match, but for Valencia it was a difficult match in the previous match against Espanyol the team that was ranked lower in the standings. But even so I still can't underestimate Valencia at all, because in fact their goal productivity is very good so far and that's why this match no team is guaranteed to win on paper.

Osasuna 0-1 Valencia with few minutes remain from the end of the first half.
As you said, Osasuna got a point from Real Madrid so I won't be surprised if they get a draw.

Well finally, Osasuna is a team that lacked a bit to be superior, I thought when they played with Real Madrid they were very connected or enlightened, but against Valencia they couldn't, they were very close to a draw but no, however I like it +I would like to point out that Osasuna has grown in terms of football, it is a team that has shown that it can put up a fight against anyone in the league, I would like to see how it plays against Barcelona, for me it is a challenge that it has to take on and leave everything on the field, at least as they did against Real Madrid, for me this team if they continue to believe it can go very far.

Second half of the match between Athletic Club and Getafe C.F., and we have a draw so far. Athletic Club is superior, but after last Saturday's defeat versus Atlético de Madrid and concede the third position in the Liga, the morale may be low, so this could be a dangerous game for them.

They all drew the game that would have been sweet money but most people gambling are facing it tough to pick up the bigger odds when betting
Athletico Madrid won the first part but didn't do well in the second half both Griezman and Morata have been involved in the last two goals the club has scored. One assist one goal for them both.

Indeed! not a good day for both Athletic de Bilbao and Atlético de Madrid. They were both superior (than Getafe and Rayo) and neither of them was able to win the match. 2 points wasted for them.

About odds, I agree that many people goes for the "safest" bet when there is a favourite to some extent, and forget that a draw is a very likely outcome most of the times.

2 times lead did not make them maintain victory in this match.
I'm quite happy with the 2 times they took the lead because my bet seemed to be going well but Munir el Hadadi did destroy it and I don't know why Getafe after falling behind they looked more enthusiastic to catch up.
Even though this is one of the biggest chances for Bilbao to get points but they must be stuck with 1 point.

For me Bilbao is a team that I see a lot of potential, if only 1 point, but if we start to check how the team is doing, we can see or rather observe that the team has a tendency to be very good, in fact its players are not so famous, but in part this makes it very good, because if it is a team that can go little by little it would be great if they could beat one of the best in the league, I am talking about being able to play well with Real Madrid, get a tie, get a tie against Barcelona, these are the probabilities that I see for this team, it looks very good, on the other hand, Getafe has done what it can, I don't really blame them.

20 minutes of running time between Elche and Madrid and the score was 0-1 through Valverde's goal in the 11th minute.
It will be another win for Madrid it seems. Their dominance is still unbearable and as time goes on their young players are getting better in terms of performance and I like Valverde's style of play this season because he is ready to play anywhere.

Now only 1:0, but 3 goals have already been scored. Benzema's goal in minute 6 was taken back for offside. Then Alaba in minute 27 and that was also offside. Real Madrid is also very strong today, it would be strange if Real didn't score any more goals. It's almost half-time and then the powerplay should start.

I didn't see it from the start and didn't know any of Benzema's goals were disallowed but for Alaba I saw that and indeed it's quite good even though the offside trap is still an obstacle.
Agree with you when you say Madrid were very strong in this match in the first half.
But for the second half, it was a little different in terms of opportunities even though their dominance was still ongoing in possession of the ball.

Well, a broad result like that of Real Madrid that no matter what strategy they use, a 2-0 is enough to show that Real Madrid continues and will continue to be the leader of this league, for me things should be like that, no There is another way that I see that the way Elche played can push back Madrid's steady pace, it's that I really don't know if it's my perception, but I see Real Madrid as that giant monster that steps hard, starts slow and then little little by little he is overwhelming his opponent and little by little he is crushing them making it more and more devastating, in this way I see Real Madrid.


Regarding Barcelona and its bitter moment, this is what they think of Xavi so far:

La Liga coach defends Xavi amid Barcelona’s poor form: “He needs time”

Villarreal manager Unai Emery has praised Xavi for the work he has done since being appointed Barcelona’s manager in November 2021, saying that the former midfielder needs some time to get things in order at Camp Nou.

Despite being at the club for almost a year, Xavi has largely failed under crunch circumstances, losing against Bayern Munich, Inter and Real Madrid this season alone. And for the second season running, the 42-year-old is starring down at the possibility of being demoted to the Europa League.

Regardless of that though, Emery says Xavi has the full support of the backroom management and the club will continue to do so in the foreseeable future.

“Xavi has very broad shoulders. He is doing a great job. He has been at the club for a year and will need time to settle it. He has the support and the patience of the club to do it. They have a lot of security internally, beyond the noise generated by the press and the environment,” Emery is quoted by Mundo Deportivo.

Clearly the need for Xavi is very great so that he can do something, in my case I would try it one more time, but if things don't work out, I would have to take a step forward and have him replaced.

Lewandowski again listed his name as a goal scorer for Barcelona after failing in the El clasio, last few hours ago Barcelona success won from Villareal 3-0 and Lewandowski made brave for Barcelona and Ansu Fati made one goals for Barcelona victory. Xavi changed with several player composition after not effective at el clasico match, Frankie de Jong and Gavi in starting eleven for midfielder position, attacking line have several changed with Dembele and Raphinha have started at the bench after replacing their position by Ferran Torres
and Ansu Fati.

This victory make 3 points left with Real Madrid until ten games and still have for Barcelona with La Liga tittle in this season, depend several match left later keep consistent.

Barcelona must also win any game until madrid may not lucky enough to win the game or got draw.
that will give a chance to the barcelona to surpass madrid in la liga. It seems like that madrid is also seriously wanna get la liga for this season.

If by the way regarding the victory of Barcelona it is something that is recognized and truly one of the best actions that Xavi has done is that they have put Lewa in because he is the only player who has saved them from many situations that were already delivered by the Barcelona, Xavi has much credit for taking them in that direction, if they continue like this they can reach the level of the table to fight against Real Madrid, but we must not forget that Barcelona can quickly fall into crisis, as it has been doing with very tight results, sometimes winning for the stars he has, but you should not trust so much.

[Davidvictorson]

Barcelona have already finished the match seemingly. They scored 3 goals in only 9 minutes after leaving the first 30 minutes behind. Villarreal couldn't resist them much and this was no surprise. We might even see an enormous goal difference if Villarreal give up on their defense from now on. There is a significant drop in Villarreal's performance these days and maybe it is related to having many missing players now. Otherwise they started the season really good actually.

Lewandowski seems to have improved his performance as he has scored two goals already. It would be nice to see a hat-trick from him while there is a big chance. He really wants to stay in the fight with Haaland for Golden Boot but the season is long. It feels like he won't be able to score more than Haaland this season.

Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres are senior players who will serve the goal scorer whenever Barca starts with them, ensuring that they will score. Although Pedri is good, he can occasionally be painfully slow and lethargic, especially when Barca is in need of a goal. In these situations, he touches the ball more than is required and loses possession. Lewandoski's two goals were excellent. His first goal demonstrated his talent, while his second goal demonstrated his shooting strength and sheer hitting ability.

[bitpotter]

Since the big El Clasico game last week, Barcelona have now started to bounce back in last night's match against Villareal by scoring three goals against the opponent. Each of these goals was scored by Robert Lewandowski and Ansu Fati. This result is quite good considering that they are only 3 points adrift of La Liga leaders Real Madrid.

[makishart]

I saw the match between Barcelona and Villarreal today. Barcelona played very well. But Villarreal tried to play well in this match but they didn't play well. But I thought Barcelona will win this match. Barcelona won this match by scoring 3 goals. Villarreal they  Tried a lot to score but they couldn't score any goals in this match.

I think so but the level of barcelona is far above villareal. Barcelona was winning easily without any difficult game against villareal. it seems like that villareal must try to fix its play style. it doesn't seem to be effective. there are only three points gap between real and barcelona. The gap is pretty easy to be reached by barcelona. It seems like all of clubs in la liga were trying so hard to be the best.

[Sebas.tian]

Manchester city have always been one of the favourites to win the champions league every season, but this time they will not be the only favourites to win it. PSG and Real Madrid are also the top favourites for the trophy, though PSG have failed to win it in previous seasons due to lack of confidence and winning mentality but we shall see if they will be able to get it right this time in the competition.

I think, it will be difficult for PSG to win this la Liga league title because they are still lacking in the area of defense which will be the disadvantage that will make them not to win the title from Real Madrid in this season. Real Madrid are still in a good mood to win this season title, because their performance so far is very good and it can take them far in this season. If Real Madrid can maintain their tactics they are using right now to achieved victory from other teams to finish this season, I think they will definitely win this season title to make their fans happy again.

[Razmirraz]

I saw the match between Barcelona and Villarreal today. Barcelona played very well. But Villarreal tried to play well in this match but they didn't play well. But I thought Barcelona will win this match. Barcelona won this match by scoring 3 goals. Villarreal they  Tried a lot to score but they couldn't score any goals in this match.

This is an important victory for Barcelona after last week they lost to Real Madrid 3-1 at the Santiago Bernabeu. Additional full points make Barcelona cut points from Real Madrid, who sits at the top of the standings, Barcelona is still safe in second place with 25 points. The additional three points make the distance between Barcelona and Real Madrid only 3 points adrift and Barcelona Superior by three points from Real Sociedad who are in third place.

What's interesting in this match is the three goals that occurred in the first half, Barcelona players were able to score 3 goals in just 8 minutes. Lewandowski scored twice in four minutes, then Ansu Fati extended Barcelona's lead in the 38th minute.

I don't think it's appropriate for Xavi to be addressed as the worst coach because Barcelona this season in La Liga is still in good form despite having poor results in the Champions League.

LOL. Anyone can judge, but I think Xavi is bad not in all matches. If you compare all that to the Koeman Era I totally agree with you. They have risen and they are better, although at the moment they have a lot of star players all need time. It's hard to change teams in just one night. It should be that the observers are more observant, Xavi's statistics are increasing. Perhaps if at the end of the season they don't have the title, it could be a reason for the supporters to insult Xavi.

Maybe only some of the observers provide analysis by ignoring the foresight in seeing clear statistics because they don't like Barcelona. We don't have to blame them, because slowly they will know what Xavi has made.
The result of last night's match vs Villarreal again showed that Xavi was the right person that Laporta chose to become Barcelona coach.

They forgot that before Xavi, Barcelona were in a very bad situation and they even were considered as not competitive enough to get a position in top four of La Liga. It's magic to see Xavi brought the club to end the past season with a runner-up position and people looked at season ending and thought Barcelona even can beat Real Madrid and take La Liga trophy if Xavi has more time. In the past season, Xavi had about half of a season to manage Barcelona.

They forgot that in this season, a runner-up position in La Liga again would be still a good result for Barcelona. If they want to win La Liga, they must give Xavi more time and allow him to buy 2 or 3 more players to enhance Barcelona strength in the next summer. If they sack Xavi in this season, they will make another mistake and the club will be in uncertain crisis again.

Barcelona is very strong in their own side and each of their players is very brave and they always go forward with the ball with courage and they can pass the ball with each other to score . I thought they might beat villareal by two goals.  But finally saw them beat villareal by 3 goals and Barcelona won I only bet 10 dollars for Barcelona, ​​from there I won only 2x

The 3-0 win ensured that Barcelona caught up with leaders Real Madrid at the top of La Liga. They are still three points behind Los Blancos thanks to the El Clasico result, but now have a better goal difference by three.

Overall it was a comfortable win for the Blaugrana, who returned to winning ways in the best possible way, following their loss in El Clasico.

@yudi09 I don’t think that they’ll sack Xavi unless Barcelona crashes outside the top 4 in La Liga, because even the board knows that it’s a long term project and there’s no instant fix to their problems. Furthermore Xavi needs at least 2 more year’s to buy all the player’s he want, and then build a winning team that can dominate La Liga for year’s to come.

Football observers should be more neutral and provide analysis according to what happened in the last few matches. Observers only speak from the point of view they have in mind, they don't necessarily like Barcelona. The maximum results that Barcelona have picked will open the eyes of observers to see more deeply the performance that Xavi has given. Being in second place is not a bad thing given Xavi, the defeat of Real Madrid will make Xavi more give the best direction for his players so as not to give the slightest opportunity for opposing players to threaten their goal.

Xavi had previously managed to lift and heal Barcelona when they were in a slump so there was no reason for barcelona to sack Xavi now, like you, I also think if Xavi actually has managed to build a good squad even though currently Barcelona is not as strong as it used to be but at least Barcelona performance is still better than the coaching period of Ronald Koeman, currently Xavi only needs the trust and time of the management and Barcelona fans to be able to build a better and stronger squad later.

Overall it was a comfortable win for the Blaugrana, who returned to winning ways in the best possible way, following their loss in El Clasico.

The El Classico loss blames was both on the coach for wrong lineups and the players for been reluctant on the pitch and also in front of goal. Hate to say this, but Robert Lewandowski have not delivered against the essential teams that barcelona needs to win. The fans are targeting for a revenge against Bayern Munich, what they did to them back in the UEFEA where they were humiliated 8-2. The bluagrana did have a fantastic display in Camp Nou against the yellow submarines. Lewandowski score a brace in the game as he looks so good with laliga pattern of games and Ansu Fati neiled it 3 for Xavi's side. It's indeed a good results to start with a well dominated game for barça.

Exactly right mate. Xavi is the figure who will run Barcelona's long-term project. Those who suspect that Xavi will be fired may not be because of the results obtained in La Liga but of the results obtained by Barcelona in the Champions League.

In the Champions League, Barcelona has not yet closed the opportunity to qualify from the group stage because there are still 2 matches to be played by Barcelona, namely Bayern Munich at Camp Nou and Viktoria Plzen at Doosan Arena. 
According to your calculations, if Barcelona failed to qualify for the next stage in the Champions League, could Xavi be sacked?

Injuries inclusions and also Sergio Busquet not being in a good form
It's way behind now Barcelona are looking ahead of the next game to come
Lewandoski still remains the highest goal scorer after scoring brace last night

[babo]

Even though Barcelona's condition is still much better but this is still not an easy thing in my opinion, especially at this time Villarreal is still one of the clubs that I find troublesome even though in the last few games they have not played well.

But to bet Barcelona is more worth it, moreover there are some players who are starting to recover now.

They should be winning easily tonight at home against Villareal.They lost against Real Madrid which for me right now is the best team in the La Liga so it is not a big deal for them from this point of view while it can be a big deal if seen as the "El Classico" lost by them.

They,Barcelona are much better than Villareal and when playing at home in Camp Nou in front of their fans I am sure Barcelona will not have any difficulties winning the game and even keeping a clean sheet by doing so maybe.

obviously my prediction was right, too much difference in quality and technique
also in Barcelona there are HUNGRY people who are so hungry for victories and titles, so it is the explosive mix
I don't know if they will succeed in overthrowing the battleship Real Madrid, this is difficult to predict

Clearly my bet was won

[Awaklara]

Exactly right mate. Xavi is the figure who will run Barcelona's long-term project. Those who suspect that Xavi will be fired may not be because of the results obtained in La Liga but of the results obtained by Barcelona in the Champions League.

I'm sure it wasn't on the fans' minds that Xavi would be sacked from Barcelona. Xavi revived Barca's game after performing poorly last season. came and brought a change, and ended the season well. and the decline in performance in the Champions League should not be the reason for Xavi's dismissal.
if that is done, the president of Barcelona will have to look at the club's problems and shortcomings. Xavi has tried hard last season with the existing squad to perform optimally. Not to mention the issue of unfinished player salaries. Of course, Xavi is working hard to keep the game on a good track.

[Fara Chan]

I didn't expect anyone to think that this match was not important for Real Madrid, even though with the competition in the standings, of course Real Madrid are still looking for point by point to make their position more secure and comfortable at the top of the standings. Unless Real Madrid already have a lot of points that are difficult for the teams below to catch up, but that often happens only towards the end of the season. But if it's still at the beginning of the season that hasn't even entered the half of the season, then of course all matches will be important matches for all teams to continue to collect points and to make their position safer in the standings.

That's what I said before, that not a single game is missed and is not considered important by Real Madrid, so that Ancelotti is still lowering his core strength in that match, moreover their points difference with Barcelona is still not that big.
The focus of Real Madrid is currently collecting full points in every game, so there has not been a big rotation made by the coach.

Benzema has proven itself to be the best player in the world. I meant look at how many var was preventing him but he can still make goal. Benzema was also doing so much contribution to the club. It seems like that ancellotti was feeling confidence with the current strategy of madrid and he was saying that if he will not try to did any rotation anymore if it's not yet needed by the club.
Sevilla may give madrid easy point too like elche. Madrid was playing the game without any pressure for now. I do believe if madrid potentially to get some trophies in this year. Im seeing the performance from madrid and that makes me feel so confidence to see that.
Ancellotti was always doing his job perfectly.

There is no doubting the ability of Benzema, both in the previous season until now, Ancelotti has the right instinct in playing the game, he is considered tactical poor, but in fact he is able to turn things around despite being under pressure, Real Madrid are absolutely perfect for now. The match against Sevilla is a step to secure full points for Real Madrid and I hope they are consistent and able to widen the points from Barcelona.
