La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

It's still not lucky enough for Barcelona because Barcelona themselves are sometimes not always at their best this season, while Real Madrid still has a chance to add to their victory in the next match. Because at this time Real Madrid has only drawn twice, while the loss has not happened at all and this makes Real Madrid will continue to be seeded in La Liga this season.

madrid failed to get 3 points because it only ended in a draw against girona and this is a good opportunity for barca to overtake the top position that has been controlled by madrid

with a difference of only 1 point, then barca only expects another 1 draw for madrid then they can shift madrid's position with a record barca must win all the matches they will face upfront

Did not perform well in Real Madrid vs Girona match Real Madrid drew in this match. Real Madrid were the most likely to win the match as all the spectators did not expect the match to be a draw. The players of the Girona team performed very well due to which they were able to draw with Real Madrid. Fortunately, Girona drew with Real Madrid otherwise it would never have been possible even with Real Madrid having so many good stars, this match was a draw. Barcelona team has performed very well as this match of Real Madrid was drawn. Currently, Barcelona is close to Real Madrid's points with Real Madrid's 32 points and Barcelona's 31 points.  But the match with Girona was the most important for Real Madrid to win.

I thought Real Madrid would win this match by a narrow margin. But they did not win. They shared the points. And Toni Kroos received a red card in the 90+1 minutes of the match. Real Madrid has a lot of attempts to score. But it was very difficult for them to score. Girona is not a strong team. Their defence is weak. Even so, it was difficult for Madrid to break down such a weak defence today. Madrid is still not strong enough without Benzema. Rodrygo, Vini and Valverde are talented players but they still lack the ability to win the team at crucial moments. Despite losing points in this match, the Real Madrid team is 1 point ahead of Barcelona.

That is sometimes how those games can go. There is no doubt which of the two contenders the stronger team is, but still on an unlucky day you just can't score. That's the same for Manchester City against some opponents when they fully dominate the game but only win by a narrow margin or don't win at all.

Actually it is good to see Real Madrid leaving some points on the table. We finally have a real fight again between Barcelona and Real Madrid, and as we are talking about Barcelona, that was exactly the opposite: they had the luck and did score in overtime.

Haven't seen the summary yet but would like to know why Kroos had to leave with a red card. I can't even recall whether he ever had a red card before Curious what happened!

I also think Real Madrid's situation is similar to Manchester City's. However, they have a strong squad. Still, these two teams are heavily dependent on Benzema and Haaland. I think the players are more confident when Benzema is in the squad. As a result, their performance is better. Such reliance on Benzema should be reduced. At the same time, coach Ancelotti should find a replacement for Benzema.

Barcelona and Madrid's title battle is intensifying. Barcelona is now only 1 point behind. The team that can play consistently well will win the title. But since Barcelona has been eliminated from the Champions League, their only target now is La Liga. So personally I think Barcelona has a slightly higher chance of winning the title.

It was Toni Kroos' first red card in a Real Madrid jersey. I knew this Toni Kross as a quiet player. But yesterday's two fouls were probably intentional. At least I thought so. The red card was justified.

Barcelona and Madrid are still in contention for the championship, but Barcelona's focus right now is undoubtedly on the league because they have fewer games to play after being eliminated from the Champions League group stage. Hazard, Mario, and Ceballos must be let go by Madrid so that they may bring in players in the January transfer window.

Without Benezma, Madrid's forward is obviously worthless. How long will they continue to rely on an aging player like Benezma? If they don't find a replacement right away, Madrid will suffer in the upcoming seasons. Girona played well and had excellent defense, thus they deserved a draw.

There are at least 2 goals that do not count in this match.
Indeed, in this case we also cannot rule out Valencia's performance in defense because it is still very good.
Luckily in this case now Madrid failed to close the gap far enough as they were stuck with a draw against Girona and this is still something very good for Barcelona.

It's still not lucky enough for Barcelona because Barcelona themselves are sometimes not always at their best this season, while Real Madrid still has a chance to add to their victory in the next match. Because at this time Real Madrid has only drawn twice, while the loss has not happened at all and this makes Real Madrid will continue to be seeded in La Liga this season.

La Liga still has a lot of fixtures left, so the rivalry between these two clubs will continue, until one of these teams is able to increase the gap in points between them.
if, one of these clubs slipped twice the game. of course, the distance between them is very difficult to approach.
So far, the difference in points between Real Madrid and Barcelona is only 1-2 points adrift in recent weeks. however, a hectic schedule and several injured players could make these two teams fall again at any time.

we will not know, until the distance between the two teams is clear. so, IMO. both teams have the same chance to get the La Liga title. So far, the fight for the La Liga title is getting hotter.

Indeed. The race for the title will be more interesting with 1 point gap only. Both Real Madrid and Barcelona have the same chance to win the title because there are still many remaining matches. However, I am not sure if Xavi only wants to focus on the La Liga title only. The Europa League title is also a prestige title, Xavi doesn't want to miss it again this season. Kock out from UCL doesn't mean losing hope for an international title, they still have a chance to win Europa League. If he failed again Europa League, the fans and Barcelona management are probably unsatisfied. So, Xavi must plan to win both competitions, La Liga and Europa League titles are big tittles.

Looks like Barcelona will have more advantages because they will play in La Liga and Europa League. With them, La Liga is their priority and they will focus best resources for it as well as even sacrifice Europa League if necessary.

Real Madrid will have more pressure as they will play at La Liga and Champions so they will be more difficult to choose one in between La Liga and Champions League. It causes more pressure and might be exhaustion on players at late of season.

I believe Real Madrid and their coach Ancelotti can distributr their resources well but they will have higher risk and more pressure than Barcelona. Anyway, I am still keen on Real Madrid will be a champions in La Liga this season, not Barcelona.

Funny! What has Barcelona got that they will decide to sacrifice Europa League because of Laliga they cannot win. Do you even understand what you are saying. Last seen Frankfurt pushed Barcelona out of Europa and this season Barcelona is at Europa and the best suggestion you can come up with is that they will sacrifice Europa for Laliga.  Both Barcelona and Real Madrid are in the situation and I believe Real Madrid more than Barcelona in both laliga and Europe

Moreno assist two late goals for winning this crucial top teams match while first goal scored on 86th minute and second goal scored on 94th minute which helps Betis to overtake loser Real Sociedad in Spanish League table now after two back to back defeats they are at fifth and Betis back in their spot of fourth where they are sharing points with Atlético Madrid which is also third with 23 points, but better goal average is helping them for having this current spot.

Betis which is not going to host Sevilla which is surely struggling from the start of this season and nothing positive happening for them because if they are not going to improve quality then surely we are going to watch them in second league because current form is not helping them.

Because at this time Real Madrid has only drawn twice, while the loss has not happened at all and this makes Real Madrid will continue to be seeded in La Liga this season.

At least the draw that Real Madrid got was very profitable for Barcelona, now Barcelona is only one point behind Real Madrid. Until week 12, Barcelona was still able to provide consistent performances in La Liga, the only defeat that Barcelona got when they were defeated by Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Real Madrid and Barcelona still have the same chance and are the top teams in La Liga. It's only a matter of time, there is no guarantee that Real Madrid and Barcelona can win all the remaining games, surprises can happen in the next game like the one Real Madrid just experienced.

[swogerino]

Real Madrid not winning at home yesterday was the biggest surprise of the weekend I think.Barcelona won and they are now just 1 points in distance despite them losing the direct match against Real Madrid.Lately Barcelona is showing much more consistency than Real Madrid and the remaining direct match will be played in Camp Nou,home to Barcelona.

Sure Real Madrid is stronger as they are doing better up until now but the fact that Real is losing points at home against teams like Girona should ring an alarm to the Real Madrid direction.

[Polkeins]

We all know that Xavi can't work wonders in one season. However, I don't think Xavi needs 3 seasons to make FC Barcelona a formidable team. His poor team's selection has been key in affecting some results this season. He brought in players who apparently would suit what he intend doing yet most times, the team struggles. On FC Barcelona's glory days, Xavi would have been inexcusable for the team's performance but thanks to Koeman and the club's board for allowing the club dip so bad.

I doubt that Xavi will be given three seasons in Barcelona if he cannot win trophies during this time. I don’t know how seriously they will take the Europa League in Barcelona, because this is not the most prestigious tournament, but I think that the main focus will be on La Liga. So far in La Liga, Barcelona still have a good chance to compete with Real Madrid, I think Xavi will concentrate all his efforts on this.

It is clear that after relegation from the Champions League, the position of Xavi is not the easiest.
In the summer, Barca bought 7 newcomers including such masters as rafinha and Lewandowski and now Xavi has announced that they are already preparing for the winter transfer window, which means that he has the confidence of the club and Loparta.
Therefore, now Xavi simply needs to win in La Liga and the first place in the championship will most likely allow him to forget about relegation from the Champions League.

It would be very bad if Xavi didn't take the Europa League, meaning if Xavi only focused on La Liga and wasn't serious about the Europa League because it was less prestigious, it would still make Xavi's assessment still bad. Because after all, Xavi must continue to bring his team better in every existing tournament at least to win a title in one of the existing tournaments.

Even though Barcelona were eliminated from the Champions League but that doesn't mean Barcelona should only focus on La Liga because of course, it would be better for Barcelona too to take a high focus on winning the Europa League title than nothing.
Because to win the title is not as easy as imagined, if Xavi still fails to win the La Liga title at least Xavi has a good chance to win the Europa League title and of course it will be good for his career.

I agree that if Barca will win the Europa League it would be very good for the club. The trophy still requires good money, which will be very important for Barcelona.
Now in La Liga the lead over Real Madrid is only one point and I think that La Liga will be the main goal for Xavi. If Barca will win La Liga, then with a 90% chance Xavi will remain the coach for the next season.
Winning only the Europa League, without first place in the championship decrease chances Xave to lead the team next year would be 50% or less.

the journey this season is still very long and there are still many points that are still up for grabs, now the difference is only 1 point of course it doesn't affect anything because there are still so many games left.

now both teams just need consistency to become champions and even though Real Madrid failed to win in Week 12 but they are still very favorites to keep the title with the quality they have and with Barcelona's poor performance lately but will but all possibilities are still possible.

Yes, the difference in points is now 1 point, making the competition between the two teams going to be fierce in the rest of the matches this season. now both teams have the same chance to win the Laliga trophy this season. the win over valencia was very important for the barcelona squad because they had to struggle in normal time but couldn't score so the goals had to come in extra time. with the achievement of 3 points makes Barcelona able to reduce the points behind their rivals to 1 point. Xavi can look to the upcoming matches with more consistency as Xavi will prioritize the LaLiga trophy after being knocked out of the UCL.

Real Madrid disappointed their fans by drawing 1-1 in the Girona match. Real Madrid dominated the match. But they couldn't score and they lost points. I think they felt the absence of Benzema very much in this match. For this reason, they need to create an alternative to Benzema. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for them to score goals in matches without Benzema.

In addition, the referee received a lot of criticism in this match. Real Madrid fans on social media were not happy with the decision of the referee of the match. I think the penalty was controversial. Real Madrid fans are not wrong in this discussion.

Anyway, Real Madrid was also not easy to get their first goal in this match, that means Girona at this moment might also play very well so that Girona was able to hold Real Madrid at least until the 70th minute. Because after that Real Madrid could just score a goal but unfortunately, the goal did not last long because 10 minutes later Girona was able to make a goal back.
I don't know for sure what happened on the pitch, but it looks like Girona played with a good defense and managed to frustrate the Real Madrid players because in the end Kroos got a red card in the last minute of the match.

I don't think the reason Real Madrid has a hard time scoring goals is because there is no Benzema in the squad, because sooner or later Real Madrid will get used to playing without Benzema. However, I believe that at this moment the opposing team played with good discipline and they succeeded in holding Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu, when in reality I also lost my bet because I bet for Real Madrid to win but I accept this final result.

Real Sociedad is going to draw the match, so Atlético de Madrid is going to lose the third position. In addition, Athletic de Bilbao's victory, and another draw for Betis, are positioning these teams dangerously near. Atlético sill have to do it better if they want to stay in the podium this season.

Sociedad has failed to utilized home match that yesterday they were lose from Betis 2 -0 and during the match Sociedad were dominated the match but their players wasted several times opportunity to scoring goals and Betis were playing well on that match even more effective than them and with this result Sociedad position was taking over by Betis on 4th

On the other side after 4 latest matches without wins finally Bilbao has successfully bounce back and get their winning result again from Villarreal but Bilbao have to hard struggle because Villarreal also has showed good fighting spirit and yesterday both of teams has been playing carefully so not much opportunity to scoring goals from them but indeed in term of attacking Bilbao has better than Villarreal and if Gerónimo Rulli didn't playing well probably the score will be more than 1 goal

Yes, Bilbao's attack has improved significantly with the current performance of the Williams brothers (real reason for pride and a real role model from a team that only accepts Basques to have two black players in their lineup).

You are right, in the end Real Sociedad lost against Betis, which is good news for Atlético de Madrid, who maintains the third position in the standings. But I reiterate the warning: there are three teams right now that can steal them the third place in just one week.

Losing Benzema is still one of the scourges that are a little difficult for Madrid to avoid in this case.
They are indeed very good in terms of attack but are still very difficult because Rodrygo still cannot be compared to Benzema.
Rodrygo is a type of attacker who relies on running speed so it is not very suitable if he is placed on the attack line as a target because he is better played on the wing.
Madrid still have the same problem in this regard even though this draw still keeps them stuck in the top position but they are currently clearly not very safe because they are only 1 point away from Barcelona.

It is natural that many regret that Real Madrid failed to win in a match that could be said to be easy for them to finish with 3 points, but in fact they could not do that because they had to be forced to draw. Apart from the controversy over the referee's decision to award the penalty, Benzema's absence was really felt for their attack. Rodrygo still can't play Benzema's position well.

Yesterday, Barcelona, in quite dramatic circumstances, finally defeated Valencia and got 3 points. At the moment, the team from Catalonia takes the first place in the league. This should be enough motivation for Real Madrid not to underestimate today's game against Girona. Girona is one of the weakest teams in La Liga and a possible loss of points by Real Madrid would be a real sensation. I do not believe in such a scenario and I bet on Real to win with a handicap (-1.5).

And it happened, Real Madrid's draw with Girona is a big surprise. Real, however, probably disregarded their opponent and did not enter the match fully concentrated. In the first half, not much happened, a lot of fighting in the middle of the pitch, and not many dangerous actions and shots. In the second half, Real's game looked better and after Vinicius' goal I was sure that the hosts would get another 3 points. Surprisingly, however, Girona equalized. The visitors' defense game deserved much praise, which is all the more surprising that so far Girona has been one of the teams losing the most goals in the league.

Yes Real Madrid failed to win the game, although not a defeat but a draw is an unexpected result when meeting an opponent like Girona. But that's the game of football that always surprises every game. Of course this result is the result expected by their rivals, Barcelona. Because with this result the distance between their points is getting closer. Vinicius goals they could not defend until the last seconds of the game.

I did not watch the match no arguing but I saw Madrid Winning did they cancel the goal or it was offside, Barcelona are right below waiting to ascend to that position soon. Girona has always be tough but I never expected this defending style from them. Holding real Madrid to a draw was impressive. Since the match against Liepzig of Germany Real Madrid has not been doing so well

Even though Barcelona's points are very close to Real Madrid's points, I'm still not sure that Barcelona will win this season easily. Because rivals Barcelona still have to be said to be strong despite getting a draw with Girona and that doesn't mean Real Madrid have become weak this season, because overall Real Madrid are still unbeaten this season. Besides that, Barcelona's current performance is also starting to look less consistent so it still has the potential to be defeated by other teams in the upcoming match.

[bering]

Last match on week 12 between Elche vs Getafe that in their 5 recent matches both of teams had equal performance with 3 draws and without the winning results but Getafe condition is quite better than Elche because they already have 2 wins before and actually to predict who is the winner of this match is very hard because the fight between mediocre teams is quite unpredictable so i will find other alternative as bet options and because both of teams are lack of productive this season so possibly this match results will be less of goals and whoever the winner probably the scores will be slim so that's why i am thinking to bet under 2.5 goals for this match
