La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Because of the heavy workload and the fact that the world cup, champions league, Europa League, and premier league are all on the horizon, as well as the fact that most players are also required to compete for their national teams, the majority of players would have been under stress during this time. Real Madrid is trailing Barcelona by two points and is winning Cádiz 2:1 despite the absence of injured star player Karim Benzema.Madrid next match now will be against Villarreal which is another point for Madrid to add.

According to media sources, Frenkie de Jong is now in the best period he has ever had from Barcelona. It is all the more unfortunate that there will soon be a break due to the World Cup. De Jong can be hugely important for Barcelona, but why did it take so long for him to finally come into his role? Real Madrid had a difficult win this week, but points were in. I hope for Barcelona that players who go to the World Cup return without several injuries. It would be very unfortunate if someone like Lewndowski were injured and had to miss the competition as a result, and Depay is still not fit.

Cadiz may not be a big problem for Real Madrid, should not. Real Madrid's dominance is exactly here in the match, but 1 goal is still worrying because if this turns out this will change the result. We really know how Real Madrid sometimes makes some surprises and it is very unpredictable. But this time, I really expect to get a good surprise so that we can see Real Madrid's position is not really far from Barcelona. WHatever happens, Real Madrid must always have full point, if they make some mistakes by losing points or getting drawn, thiswill be really worrying.

I also felt the same concern while watching the Real Madrid vs Cadiz match. but Real madrid's dominance throughout the game has brought quite satisfactory results. and a 2-1 win I don't think is too bad. so the difference in points between Barcelona and Real Madrid is now only 2 points apart. Barcelona is still at the top of the table. but with not much difference in points. then Real Madrid can still have a great chance to seize the top of the standings.

I really think Real Madrid could have scored more in this match. They have missed some really easy chances in this match. But so did Cadiz. Both of them missed easy chances. And I think Cadiz was a wee bit unlucky as well because they got denied by the crossbar once. Even the Real Madrid goalkeeper would have said that he had it covered, but I have my doubts.

Ultimately, I cannot say that this one was an easy win for Real Madrid. Even in the 92nd-minute Cadiz had a good chance which they missed. But Real Madrid got the full three points. That's what they needed to stay close to Barcelona. Now Real Madrid cannot make any mistakes. Barcelona has a 2-point advantage over Real Madrid right now.

Especially Barcelona and Real Madrid will need to keep their players healthy during the World Cup. If we see important injuries for any side than the title race can be affected directly badly. Benzema's return was unknown so far this break will make them gain some time as well. His contribution is very important for the team.

This is a little difficult, especially since we know that when a player who plays for the national team clearly wants to show his best performance in this world cup.
Barcelona have had problems because some of their core players were injured a lot but this can't be faulted either because this is the highest prestige and aspiration of the players who of course want to play in the world cup.
Personally, the club cannot interfere with the condition of the players when they are in this world cup.

I heard rumors about Barcelona's plans to extend Alonso's contract. I never know if that's true, but I don't think it's going to be a really good decision. To be honest I noticed Alonso wasn't really good in his last 12 games for Barcelona, ​​but his experience may have convinced Xavi to stick with him for longer. If this issue is true, then I think Alonso really has to give his best for his current team. Alonso is useful in several positions especially at center back or left back, that's his forte but he's not very reliable with pace.

Now things are going well for Alonso because Xavi really believed in him during Araujo and several other defenders were injured. So he must maximize this opportunity well to keep a place in the Barcelona main squad. Other than that, Araujo's recovery condition will probably make Barcelona happy even though he recently underwent surgery.

Although since being recruited from Chelsea Alonso has not shown the best performance, Barcelona have other reasons to extend Alonso's contract. He can play in two different positions, centre-back and left-back. Barcelona already has a formidable centre-back in its squad, Kunde, Araujo and Eric Garcia. While at left back Barcelona have wonderkid Alejandro Balde who always looks good when given the trust of the coach, in the same position Barcelona also has Jordi Alba.

Alonso who can play in two positions would be an ideal substitute to replace an injured main player. Barcelona are also very confident in Alonso's experience that he is considered worthy of being maintained even though he rarely starts in the main squad chosen by Xavi.

Benzema's return was unknown so far this break will make them gain some time as well. His contribution is very important for the team.

The chances of players getting injured in the World Cup are high. And at this point the responsibility of the players probably rests with their own country. Clubs play no role here. However, if a player suffers an injury, the clubs will suffer more than the country. However, if Barcelona or Madrid suffer injuries to key players, they will lose their dominance in the league. And since the points gap between the two teams is so small, any team that loses Truck will continue to slip away from the title.

Agree with what you said, because regardless of what the club cannot contribute too much to the players when they are in the World Cup because this is the responsibility of the state.
On the other hand, when they say a loss it is clear that it will be a loss but on the other hand they also can't do much the same as when Barcelona lost several players last month which caused a decline in performance and had to be eliminated in the Champions League.

If we talked about low tier teams, then of course the team shouldn't interfere in a clear opportunity for the player who is accepted in the national team. But if we talk about Real Madrid or Barcelona there is much more at stake, so I doubt the players are allowed to perform at 100% percent in the world cup, if this could lead to injuries.

In the end, I guess, they have to prioritize the team who pays them their salary.

A big congratulations to Real Madrid for the beautiful victory they got from Cadiz that made many people to believed that they have something good to achieve in this season. Despite, the prepared Cadiz defenders prepare not to allow Real Madrid strikers have their way into their goalpost but Real Madrid strikers scored the first goal at 40 minutes in the first half that made their fans to have hope of winning the match with many goals. After the first half Real Madrid still embraced another goal at 70 minutes to defeated Cadiz 2-1, to prove to people that they still remain among the best team in this la Liga league competition.

Even though Real Madrid won this match, but I expect that Real Madrid should be able to win by at least 2 goals away (3 - 1 for example). Real Madrid won the match but the bettors who bet on handicap bets lost.

BTW, with this result, the distance between Real Madrid and Barcelona is now very close in the standings (2 points away), while Cadiz are the team that remains at the bottom of the standings.

Madrid's dominance is still very good in this match but their problem is still the same because many chances are created but always fail to score goals.
The instincts of their young players must continue to be trained in scoring goals if Ancelotti still doesn't want to add players to his squad but this is of course not an easy matter to do.

So far, I haven't seen any news about this and even though there is a ban, it's still a little different because with the World Cup, it's clear they will risk anything for the sake of the country as a form of dedication to their respective countries so if players are not allowed to appear 100% percent in the world cup then this will obviously trigger an extraordinary reaction from the country and fans because this is the most awaited event almost all over the world so indeed such a ban will actually harm the club in terms of negative stigma.

Once again real Madrid found troubles against a weak club, after loosing against vallecano now they strungle to get the 3 points against cadiz, it's seems that this is the worst period in real Madrid season but they still fine and I think they will back stronger after the world cup

This is the first time I've ever heard of clubs being able to prohibit their players from giving 100 percent at the matches of their national team, especially at the matches of the World Cup, the winning of which is the pinnacle of the desires of the absolute majority of players. Moreover, as far as I remember, FIFA firstly covers insurance for players in case of injury while playing for the national team, and also pays clubs for each player who takes part in the World Cup.

The only thing that make real madrid having tough game against cadiz was if real madrid didn't have good striker. Benzema ddn't play against cadiz. You can't even predict that if mediocre team like cadiz sometime will have a good performance to make another team faced hard game but anyway it doesn't matter a lot as long as madrid already won the match against cadiz and securing the full points. There's nothing to be feel worried about that.
Even the fact that cadiz was still at the bottom but it has potential to beat the big team like madrid. there have been so many times big club got defeated by low tier club just like when atletico was getting lose against mallorca.this is how football competition must work

Real madrid are passing one of their difficult phase at the moment with losing both in the champions league and laliga is something we didn't expect will happen sooner. Carlo Ancelotti should apply new range of players in the transfer window because Luka Modric and Toni kroos are not that active, they can't cheat nature because they're aging, the coach needs to plan for what's coming next and prepare to lose keyplayers who have reach the age to retired. Real madrid will bounce back to winning ways, although mediocre team like Cadiz will always put tough game for balance team like madrid, that's usual but we hope to see more victories for the los blancos.

The last games before the World Cup have been played. Barcelona must be happy to give the break as the leader in the standings. We won't see any matches until December 31. In this time period there might be sigificant situation changes for the teams in the league such as injuries in the World Cup.

Especially Barcelona and Real Madrid will need to keep their players healthy during the World Cup. If we see important injuries for any side than the title race can be affected directly badly. Benzema's return was unknown so far this break will make them gain some time as well. His contribution is very important for the team.

Unfortunately most of Barcelona and Real Madrid players will hard to keep their healthy during world cup even their players will be very busy so they don't have enough time to rested especially for Barcelona that their contribute for the current world cup is quite big this because almost all of Barcelona players confirmed will defend their national teams and so far 17 players from this club will play for their countries each with Spain as the national team that uses the most Barcelona players with 7 players and in my opinion this also can be the further problem to Barcelona itself because not impossible some of those players will got injured during the tournament and eventually after world cup they cannot play for Barcelona so this is not good for Barcelona condition because they required all of the current players to compete with Real Madrid

That is the risk for the club if a player gets injured while playing for the national team. But for a player, playing and being able to give a title to his country is an honour. The club has no right to prohibit or interfere with its players when appearing with the national team.

Then for Barcelona and Real Madrid, who are currently competing in La Liga, they must find the right solution if some of their players are injured, namely hunting for new players in the January transfer window.

That is their job as footballers, for me this is not a big pressure for the players, because indeed they have to keep playing in all competitions so that quality is always maintained.
The biggest dream of footballers is to contribute to their country, which means they cannot miss the World Cup, pressure is just another factor that will not affect every player's performance.

Real Madrid is trailing Barcelona by two points and is winning Cádiz 2:1 despite the absence of injured star player Karim Benzema.Madrid next match now will be against Villarreal which is another point for Madrid to add.

Currently the standings have been taken over by Barcelona, ​​meaning that two points will be Real Madrid's task to continue to stick behind them, Barcelona will face Espanyol in the follow-up match of Week 15 while Real Madrid will travel to Real Valladolid.

There is nothing like clubs prohibiting their players from appearing hundred percent in the world cup, if there is something like that, the reverse should be the case. I have seen where some players form illness or deliberately get red card in order to preserve their selves for the World Cup coming soon. Take the situation of Mane into account who was unluckily injured a week before the World Cup and he is the star man of their country and the continent of Africa

[hyudien]

You are right that Real Madrid's splendid performance is inseparable from the appearance of their midfielders who have excellent performances. Modric and Kroos are the lifeblood of Real Madrid's game now, yes they can always be the difference on the pitch when the team is deadlocked. We saw in the previous game when they lost Kroos in midfield due to being sidelined due to a red card received in the previous match, the result was a defeat that saw them move away from Barcelona. They have not found the ideal player to replace his position in midfield, the young players in the squad have not been able to perform optimally at least have a mission to play like Toni Kroos.

Ancelotti also actually had to prepare alternatives other than Modric or Kroos. Modric age is quite old and it is possible that injuries or decreased performance will often occur in players whose age is no longer productive on the field. What Real Madrid needs now is that they have many options, and next season's transfer market should pay more attention to it. Because this is for the balance of Real Madrid as a club that has a great reputation. Wouldn't it be better to have options than none, so that the transition period for new players is much more adaptable. The declining performance should not be underestimated, because Real Madrid still has a long way to go both in the Champions League and in La Liga.

I think so far the Real Madrid squad is pretty even in every line even the substitutes and these players have not much difference so that it keeps this team stable.
it doesn't mean that because of their defeat last week, Real Madrid had to improve a lot and felt that this team was not doing well, I don't think so, Real Madrid has often lost against weaker teams every season, as if they underestimated or couldn't beat them. their consistency. but I don't think it will happen again especially on the European stage against top teams.

It's just football ,there are no single club being invincible for too long .. there always an end and real madrid time to lose has come by defeated 3-2 away from home. Even with those on fire squad , their unbeaten run stopped at 13 now and that's not a bad one at all.

There is plenty of time and it's only two points behind though.

the dream of a football player is to be able to appear to defend his country in every competition especially this is a world cup of course any team will be quite happy to hear the news that their players have been called to defend their country and it impossible for a team to ban their players from defending their country in the world cup event. One more thing if one of their players can make a big contribution to their country or can bring their country into the world cup final, the value of the player's release clause will increase many times and this can benefit his team. but a hurricane of injuries is what every team is afraid of if their players have to suffer injuries in this year's world cup.
