La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[ShowOff]

Not only Real Madrid but other clubs also have top players, this is not only a matter on top players but how Real Madrid has a better tactician than other clubs. I mean Manager, Real Madrid have a smart choice manager, Ancelotti his history is very great, of course Real Madrid was able to win that title its all because him. If Real Madrid has a bad tactician, then Top players won't look good either.

There is no doubt that Real Madrid is a good team with a coach and players. I don't remember who was the worst Real Madrid coach in the last 10 years without a title in a season, they are all great and I think Real Madrid tend to work with great people.

But is that a guarantee to always be successful? I think most people would say no, but these great guys are likely to put together a successful team to win titles at the end of the season. Ancelotti was extraordinary for Real Madrid, I admit that.

Real Madrid will provide a replacement for Benzema,as they are always planning ahead in other to win more trophies. Just the way we have seen it that age is not a friend with him and this is affecting his performance,the recent injury will make them hasten up for his replacement. Real Madrid is always after winning trophies,that is why they always go for already made players,I know they must be targeting a player from this world cup base on his performance.

If Real Madrid don't provide a  player for Benzema replacement very quickly the quality of Real Madrid performance will drop. Benzema is an important player for Real Madrid,  get a player must be a player of Benzema  kind, anything less than that can affect real madrid performance.

Real Madrid will do everything to become champions again, they have everything for this, and the gap is now only 2 points, this is an insignificant difference and it can be decided in one match, between these teams. Real Madrid have already beaten Barcelona this season and have done it very confidently, but the main thing will be how many points the teams lose over the remaining games. The fact that Barcelona were able to bypass Real Madrid was a surprise, but I don’t think that it's for a long.

I think Real found Benzema's heir in Brazil. It is rumored that they have transferred Endrick. However, since Endrick will be in the Real Madrid squad when he turns 18, they should get maximum efficiency from Benzema for 2 years. Another striker transfer is definitely needed. Benzema, who received the most prestigious award last year, is having a quieter season this year. This is what I really wonder if there will be an increase in his performance after he recovers from his injury.

We all know how much confidence and strength the presence of Benzema in the starting line up gives the team in every game and it is understandable how their performance drops when he is absent so I'm quite convinced his return from injury will be a major boost to the squad and the season at hand. I can't say much about Endrick we just have to wait until he comes off good age in the team.

I think Real Madrid will be back stronger than before by their upcoming games. They had some problems against smaller teams recently and lost so many points during this time. Barcelona have benefited from it and taken the lead. But the gap is only two points anyway. Real Madrid should improve their effort in the La Liga to have a good form.

Winning against Barcelona won't be enough for them for the La Liga title in the end. They need to keep up a solid form in the rest of the games as well just as Barcelona do. I know that things are becoming more serious in the Champions League on one hand. But this shouldn't affect the concentration level of the Real Madrid players in the La Liga badly.

Coming back stronger would be the ultimate goal for Real Madrid after the world cup, I must confess that I have missed watching the club games and can't wait for resumption. Real Madrid have not been 100% into the game before the break. Now they need to build from the bad games take the positives going into the remaining games of the season and get the best results possible.

The fact that Barcelona were able to bypass Real Madrid was a surprise, but I don’t think that it's for a long.

Right now, talking about title race is completely useless because we have going to start from 15th round in few days mean 24 rounds left a very long period of season with many ups and downs are also going to happen and Barcelona which is currently leading by just 2 points are also under development which is clearly giving chance to Real Madrid as they have time for defending their title because right now we have no other team which is capable of challenging them and just Barcelona and Real Madrid are the best teams in La Liga.

In January, we are going to have few transfers as well because Real Madrid is surely looking for changes and things are looking good for them as they have enough funds and few players are already under their radar, hopefully they will be able to have their required players which will give them better performance and chance of defending title.

[Distraction]

I think Real Madrid will not make do with only the Endrick transfer. Because this guy is still 16 years old now and he isn't able to come to the team before the age of 18. Even when he is back there will be a big question mark about if he can be a regular in the starting eleven in a short time. Because he will still be very young and inexperienced in European football at the same time. Most probably we would see him joining the matches from the subs. But I'm really curious about how skillful he is. This potential must be really big otherwise Real Madrid wouldn't have spent 72m euros for a 16-year-old.

I don't think they will continue with only Benzema in the meantime. We might see a transfer move by Ancelotti next summer. Maybe the candidate would be Harry Kane.

The success of Real Madrid is that they know how to nurture players and make them the best in the world, and that they can afford to buy the best players in the world and make a high quality team out of it all. They've had a few bad transfers, yes, but everyone has long since forgotten about that and the team goes on and continues to win. The last bad transfer I remember is Hazard, but he's pretty much in the past now.

[savetheFORUM]

A replacement for Benzema is needed but we don't know what the  Los Blancos boss has in mind. The world cup has revealed lots of talented players that can fit into Benzema's shoes to keep the hope of recovering the title from their standing rivals alive and since Benzema has been frequent with injuries. The transfer window will tell what Madrid has as alternative to replacing Benzema incases of injuries.

Currently, Los Blancos and Carlos Ancelotti both are working on to fix their problem which is giving them tension after the injury of their main striker Karim Benzema because they understand how to fix this as soon as possible in case of any delay they have to face consequences which are not less than losing both titles in this season.

But, all things will be happened on their proper time because without this nothing is possible right now World Cup is in last stages and after this we will be having Winter transfer window which will give opportunity to all teams for having the players which are needed by them in coming weeks even Real Madrid have few better options but still they are looking for top quality player which is capable of giving them good chance for having aggressive results until end of this season.

[Docnaster]

Real Madrid and Barcelona are currently between a rock and a hard place. Both teams are facing champion league and Europa league pressure respectively. For that, I think la Liga will be quite unpredictable seeing that Real Sociedad despite being in the Europa League is also pushing so hard this season to have a place at the top of the la Liga list after experiencing their last la Liga title and several runner-ups since 1981, I can't underrate their ability this year.

[TheGreatPython]

In this case I still feel that Benzema will still be the main starting line-up until it is felt that he is no longer capable, regardless of which player later enters when Benzema recovers from injury he will still be Ancelotti's first choice at least until the end of Benzema's contract.
Even though the condition of his feet is currently not possible but we know that Benzema is a frightening figure when he is in the opponent's defense area so with this condition I feel he will continue to be there no matter what happens this season except if his foot condition doesn't allow it.

Even Karim Benzema is one of the best player in Real Madrid squad but keep one thing in mind every thing is replaceable in this world even in games because nothing is permanent, so mostly we will have Benzema as Real Madrid main striker, but they will bring new player as well with the approach of having long term planning because now Karim Benzema is having only 2 or 3 years in game so after this surely Real Madrid also needs a quality player which will help them for having their best performance for the long run.

Now, foremost we have to wait for the next movement of the Real Madrid because right now mostly quality strikers are already settled and nothing is available in market for the better move they have to wait until summer transfer window, but they are looking a player in just few weeks so what is going to cook we have to wait.

You are right, we are not even in the middle of La Liga, so nothing is decided (maybe the fate of those teams with very bad performance, but even for them there is still a long league left.

About new players for Real Madrid, they were talking a few days ago about buying Mbappé, but it seems that in the end it will not be possible. But I think that they have more chances to win, as Barcelona's financial situation is quite bad, and won't be able to compete with the new names in Madrid.

I think they are aware of what they have to do because that is the basic thing. Moreover, they are a big club who really have to know that the bigger they are, they also have to be able to continue to compete wherever it is because this is like the real provisions.
This is also what made them known and labeled as a big club, right?

That's true, also i don't really think that Barcelona will focus on the Europa league because it's not an important trophy for a club like Barcelona, real Madrid club used to have such situations so i don't think this will be a problem for them, i expecte that the battle for the trophy will not be easy for both teams and yes la Liga is really very hard to predict right now

I know that things are becoming more serious in the Champions League on one hand. But this shouldn't affect the concentration level of the Real Madrid players in the La Liga badly.

In fact, Real Madrid are showing great results in games with small clubs - the percentage of victories this season is higher than in the past, when they became champions. Lagging behind Barcelona, I can only explain the abnormally good result of Barcelona. But I am sure that Barcelona will not be able to show such results for a long time and we will see something similar to what happened with Union Berlin.

It would really be a big surprise to me if Barcelona keep up this form until the end of the season. I also think they will start stumbling at some point. However I'm not sure whether they would experience a similar thing to the one Union Berlin had. Because Union Berlin's has been a really bad streak full of draws and losses.

But Barcelona might not lose points that often. We should be seeing this rivalry continuing until the end of the season whichever team get ahead. I'm just enjoying this season because it is nothing like the previous one. That one was really boring to me as Real Madrid didn't struggle at all.

Indeed. The problem of having a tight schedule is only available once there is many injuries and less players to rotate. Both Real Madrid and Barcelona have enough players to participate in different games except for one or two positions where it might be hard to find a good substitute, like Benzema case.
Otherwise, the title will remain between these two clubs in La Liga.

Well, I'm not sure that Barcelona will put all its resources into winning the title of the winner of the Europa League and I don't think it will be a great tragedy for the club's management to fail in this matter. Still, I think that the main priority for Barcelona is to win La Liga and if that happens, Xavi will be forgiven for all the other failures.

Barcelona's main goal is to win the La Liga title. The Europa League title is not Barcelona's goal. I don't think Barcelona won't try for the Europa League title though. Xavi has yet to win a title as a coach. He will definitely want to win the title. If Barcelona can perform well and win their next match against Manchester United in the Europa League, Xavi might try his best to win the Europa League title. But first of all, Barcelona's performance needs to be stabilized. No title can be won if the team's performance is not stable.

It's true. Barcelona will really want to win La Liga in this season especially they have advantage on the table before World Cup start. It is because star players would like to join a club that can win title and at best, win titles in recent seasons. They less likely want to join a club that just ended previous seasons at either runner-up or third or fourth positions in their national league.

Difference between the champions and runner-up positions probably is too big and can not be covered easily just by one or two big transfers.

[Ayers]

Sevilla had a really bad first half of the season.
They have too much draw and then get lost consecutively as for the result they are staying at the bottom 3 which it's quite misery , one thing i believe that they would survive ... the next transfer window must be a momentum to comeback to where they belong , into the top 5 ... at least get into the mid table.

Today they competed against Benfica, they managed to get a win with 1 point superiority, with this win, hopefully, this will trigger Sevilla to get back up from their slump and try to get into the top 10 and not like they are currently in the very bottom ranking.

It took 61 minutes to score against Benfica, a goal from Rakitic gave Sevilla a positive result in the Friendlies match. Even though the victory against Benfica did not occur in an official match, Sevilla can make this moment a turning point from their poor performance so far. Sevilla must maintain their form after the start of the League, they need to improve their position in the standings to get out of the relegation zone.
Sevilla also needs to bring in new players to increase the strength of the squad, squad depth needs to be maintained to get back into the big six position. A team of Sevilla class must be able to finish in the European zone, if they can't do it, this season will be the worst season for Sevilla.

Ended by 1-0, not a high voltage match,
The match was a friendly match between two clubs, and to be honest, no one gives a damn about friendlies. As such, I believe that this victory for Sevilla is not going to have any significant impact on anything in the near future. Due to the fact that this was a friendly match, I don't think that any of the players gave too much importance to this match. In addition, this is not meant to cause any team to suddenly improve or drop in performance as a result of this. This is why I think we should also not think too much about this match as well.

Overall, it is better for Barcelona to fight for the La Liga title this season because considering that Barcelona's strongest competitor is also there, namely Real Madrid. But Xavi will also get a bit more credit if he is able to win the Europa League title this season and in fact Barcelona could get both trophies in different competitions this season if they use all the resources they have at the moment.
