La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[bekti3]

-snip-

I doubt barcelona will get full points now. I meant i must aware with the fact that barcelona's performance may not be changed for the upcoming match. that means barcelona needs to have huge improvements. Real madrid is slowly become even stronger than before. i prefer to call that madrid as the most favourite candidate to win la liga rather than barcelona itself. Barcelona's performance may not so good right now.
Real madrid has been going back to the best formation with benzema on it and it's quite impossible to prevent real madrid

I think Barcelona just needs a better tactic, with a capable squad they always dominate every match, the only huge improvements might be of Xavi strategy. But Real Madrid I also no doubt that with Benzema there is still the possibility of winning the title again, I understand if many are guess they are the most favorite candidates.
In one hour there will be an interesting match, Elche vs Celta Vigo. This is probably the match has been waiting for Elche, this team there isn't 1 victory yet so far, is it possible they can get the full points?

Their current tactic with tiki taka is actually very good because Xavi indirectly returns to their legendary old tactics which had rarely been seen in Barcelona for several seasons.
But this will be a little difficult with Atletico's quiet condition always with their defense which is actually quite annoying even though until now this defense is still easy to penetrate.
I think it's a narrow win for Barcelona and the 3 points will still be earned regardless of their previous performance against Espanyol.

It was a very nice odd to have bet on Cadiz to win this match but the fear of losing will not allow so many people to place the bet. Analysis already shows that Cadiz is currently on form. They have lost just once since the start of the season's second half and it's enough to expect a tough match against Valencia. so many fouls committed and many yellow cards received by both sides. Even with Valencia's dominant nature, I knew they won't be able to equalize the match. Cuz right from the first half, luck wasn't on their side.

Damn one should have at least seen that win coming in the favor of Cadiz, that single goal was a well worked chance there and the shot was taken very well by the player who scored as I wasn't so focused on the game, I wasn't really so focused on that game.
Gatuso needs to improve his side, they're filled with young players who lack experience, too many touches that didn't hurt Cadiz wasn't really important.

The best chance they had to score was saved by Cadiz goalkeeper, as it was a solid technique from the Valencia Captain. I expect better that what they played tonight. Cadiz good at defending goals like this did marvelous.

[Doell]

Cadiz team surprised Valencia with an early goal by alcaraz in the 9th minute, after that Valencia didn't create many opportunities to score and they still didn't shoot goal, the first half ia just finished and i wonder what will be the changes that Gattuso will do to make more creativity in the offensive line, Valencia is very far away from the top teams and losing this match will make any European spot almost impossible

Cadiz is holding on to their one goal lead, if they can be able to hold Valencia until the end of 90minutes they will be going home with all three points tonight. Valencia have been sloppy , they  created quite some chances and have failed to convert them, on the other hand Cadiz have been impressive defensively. Cadiz have a better record than valencia in their last 5 games for both teams. I think Cadiz have a better chance to win this game than Valencia, Valencia will have to do more to come back into this game.

The game is in the final minute and Cadiz is not letting Valencia share points with them since they are keeping them away from their box, I think Cadiz deserved to win this game tonight because they have been the better team regardless of the home team regardless having more control of the game as it is clearly seen in their possession of 75 against  25. At the end of the game Cadiz will be motivated to put up more good performance because this away winning will increase the morale of the team and they will likely show a better performance in their next match hopefully they will have a good result too.

Cadiz really deserved win from Valencia, next match Cadiz they will against Elche, a better match than before because they will be against not good a team in terms of performance. Cadiz still has a chance to stay away from the relegation zone, later in next match they should be able to get full points, and also there will definitely be no surprises from Elche their losing streak was terrible.

What can we really say to be th reason why Rela Madrid have been under performing since after the world cup and the resumption of the league, i was watching a preview of some of their matchs in the last few day back and i am Chuck at what Madrid is playing as if their have lost all the formation we saw last season.

Some important players will be leaving from madrid very soon. You can't prevent it. Some of madrid's players become even older and it can't be prevented. The team must try to find the new formation. Madrid will have so many talented players. Madrid is hunting bernardo silva right now caused by toni kroos will be retired from the football very soon and madrid has no choice other than get a replacement for him. Luka modric was not a young player anymore. We must accept the truth that if this time madrid is not in the best form but it can still show the best performance against another big club.

These developments mean the beginning of problems for Real Madrid.  Major players have aged or are in a position to quit football.  Modric, Benzema is getting old, Kroos says he will quit football at an early age.  We all know that these 3 players are very important for Real.  They have to fill the shortcomings of these players for the championship.

Ancelloti has a project on his hands and I have noticed the club have been recruiting not just talented players but young players to the squad. With some of the aged players departing it is a wise idea recruiting young players not just for the present but for the long run. I like the recent developments and how Real Madrid are going with their transfers, in the near future this young players will grow together to be a solid team with good team work.

 I had my money on Valencia and was pretty sure before the match that they would win easily but an early goal by Cadiz changed everything. I just dont understand how Valencia can lose against a team that is really bad this season,this were some easy points honestly but Cadiz pulled through and got really big three points.

[Velvet78]

Valencia can be one of the teams not to be trusted for betting much. Normally this should have been a clear win for them. They had a quite dominant game as well actually. They dominated the game by having a 70+ percent ball possession throughout the game. They had many goal attempts at the same time. But they were bad at finding the target.

Cadiz benefited from their chances really nicely. They actually scored very early in the game but still they managed to keep the 1-0 advantage until the end.

[TopT3ns]

Of course this made Valencia a little surprised because of Cadiz's early goal in the 9th minute. Meanwhile, until now in the 65th minute, Valencia has not been able to reply to Cadiz's goal. This is interesting because, however, Valencia actually played an attacking game and quite dominated the ball possession from Cadiz. But on the other hand, it is less accurate in the line of attack and wastes many opportunities and does not emphasize strong attacks. Not to mention that Cadiz is also strengthening the defense so they hope not to concede a goal and maintain the advantage until the end.

Cadiz managed to get the win in this match thanks to Ruben Alcaraz finally Cadiz changed positions to survive until the end of the game so that it made it difficult for Valencia to reply and catch up on the points that were left behind, with the strategy carried out by Cadiz at least they managed to do their best to win. This match embarrassed Valencia because they had to lose to a club that was not too strong and should have been easy to beat.

It seems like that the ball possessions won't become the trend anymore lol. Mostly of team with high ball possessions were losing against another team which has low ball possessions and i think that it's caused by once a team got a very big ball possessions and they become inconsistent. I mean the defenders just like forgot if they have their own area that must be protected from the opponent.
I saw that mostly of defenders were also going up and leaving their positions to help their team mates to did attack too, That's why a surprise attack was very effective in this match

[nurilham]

But my focus is still on Sevilla and I think their drop which you think is a bit natural is not too natural for me. For 3 consecutive seasons they have always been in 4th place but now they are really struggling in the relegation zone and this is not normal for a club that was actually strong in the previous 3 seasons.

You are right, bro.
Sevilla performance dropped too far, it looks very unnatural. I am very surprised with the current Sevilla performance, they looked very awful. Considering their squad quality, ideally their position is in the top 10 of La Liga standings. But in reality, they are in the relegation zone now, I really can't believe it! I mean Sevilla is a team that has a lot of experience both in the local league and international competition, why they played like a new team in La Liga? Do they experience an internal conflict with club management? There should be big trouble happening on this team.

[blue Snow]

Villareal vs Madrid,

Madrid have statistic better play on away, they have 7 won on play away, and have target to 8th on Estadio de la Ceramica. For sure is not easy, because Villareal is look on fire, in the last 6 matches they always win, but what make me doubt is they lost versus Mallorca on they home 0-2. Which this situation, I really sure to bet on Madrid even have a bit of doubt about Vedat Muriqi, Mallorca player who listed on top score table.

I also paid attention to these (as it seems to me erroneous) odds and I think that this is an easy bet on Real. As good as Villarreal is with weak teams (although even here they fail sometimes as we can see) playing against a motivated Real Madrid which have the same number of points as Barcelona is completely different. I would rate 1.85-1.9 odds as worth betting, but the bookies give even more generous odds.

The bookie wants us to bet a lot of money on Madrid, maybe true in what you say they are kind to give a new year gift. Real madrid have big motivated win to beat Barcelona on top, this is the right time because in the next day, Barcelona will face Atletico, where according to observers they will fight more than Madrid. so if Madrid can take advantage of this opportunity on top stand, certainly will affect to mentally of Barcelona Player.

it looked like an easy win considering Cadiz's position in the leaderboard and their performance so far in la liga, with this win the escaped the danger zone at least temporarily, and they seem to be doing well against strong clubs, they beat Atl Madrid and Real madrid hardly beat them, and today they got the three points from Valencia, they really don't want leave La Liga it seems.

It wasn't obvious to support Cadiz vs Valencia and this team surprised us with such victory. An early goal and for the rest +80 minutes in the game, Valencia wasn't able to score any game!
For the relegation zone, Cadiz isn't safe at all and might return at any moment

Cadiz is not yet safe but cadiz has been making the most important steps to get leave from the relegation zone rather than try to stay even longer on it. I think that we must also give applause to the effort that already made by cadiz. Cadiz has been trying to defense from any attacks that were coming to the club. I think that it can be known easily about how cadiz will able to step up even further than before. Cadiz gonna be even stronger and keep survive from the relegation zone.
A bit surprised to see the statistic from valencia against cadiz. Valencia has been fully dominating the match while cadiz needs only a few chance to make goals against valencia.

[Insanity]

In this match of Valencia vs Cadiz, we saw Cadiz score a goal in the first 9 minutes of the game. In the match between these two teams, both teams played very well, but Valencia did not score a goal. Valencia is still far ahead in the points table. Everyone thought that Valencia would win this match.  But after Cadiz scored 1 goal early in the game, Valencia couldn't score any more goals.

Cadiz players displayed well in this this la Liga league competition because many people predicted for the favour of Valencia based on their past performance but Cadiz turned the match for their favour. Cadiz coach made all their position strong for Valencia players not to achieve any single opportunity from the match, which their players did by secured the one goal they achieved in the 9 minutes. If Cadiz can maintain this strategies they used to defeated Valencia 1-0 till the end of the tournament, I think it will help them to go far in this season.

[LUCKMCFLY]

There were plenty of players missing because of "injury", Kante, Pogba, Benzema. To consider that they all could have played, then France would have certainly won the cup without a shadow of doubt in my mind, as it's football of course, with them on the field maybe Mbappe wouldn't have taken the lead and maybe they wouldn't even made that comeback.

But, it looks like Deschamps just didn't wanted Benzema there, and it could be understood if he doesn't feel comfortable with him as the manager and just didn't wanted him. Even the greatest players could be a trouble if there is a problem with the manager and they ignore them.

Not only him, but also other high-powered executives in France who did not allow Benzema to enter, now the real hope is that if Zidane takes charge of the France team he can make Bezema stay, +he will give it to him. he gets along very well with him and knows that with Benzema great things can be done and things can change for the better, however, at Real Madrid Benzema continues to be the owner and lord of the team, because he is like a savior for everything he has contributed to the team, without a doubt he is one of the best players that France has ever had and the fact of not putting him in to play is something like what Fernando Santos did with CR7.

I'm still worried about FC Barcelona's last match against intercity...i don't think Barcelona would be able to secure a win against a good attacking opponent team like Man City, Manchester United, or even real Madrid with such defensive errors. It was so unbelievable to see them score two goals and conceding two goals in under 20 minutes (66-86) minutes. It's quite clear that Barcelona's defense is not up to the tax ahead, and if Xavi does nothing about this it will definitely affect their performance in both the Europa league, copa del rey and la liga.

It's embarrassing to watch this team. With every opponent, Barcelona makes it look as if Bayern Munich and they are dreaming of beating Man Utd. This weak defense still inspires some diehard fans to believe they can compete in Europe. It's becoming clear to me that Xavi is just an average coach. I can't imagine how Xavi will cope with their game against Intercity. However, the match was more entertaining than the Champions League.

Did you remember last year? yeah barcelona got beaten by bundesliga team. People were always calling barcelona as perfect team no matter what happened with the club. As far as i know that if barcelona was performing so bad in the UCL. it was also doing the same thing in europa league. It seems like that the current squad of barcelona was not able to compete in the professional competition like UCL and europa league.
It can be seen from how barcelona was always failed to winning the trophy while mostly of fans called that as easy trophy for barcelona. I don't know what they were thinking about their favourite team. MU is far stronger than frankfurt

Whenever Barcelona get into a slightly better position, the team and coaching staff seem to get overconfident.  And the easy trophy goes out of hand.

That can sometimes be overconfidence, it's not good to have those feelings in football because it's easy to crash with everything that's happening, for me when it comes to important or not so important games, if Barcelona wants You have to play as if every game were a feina, whether it's in the League, whether it's in the Europa League, you have to give your all for everything, there can be no excuses, Xavi has a good team, he just has to manage it well, it's not Difficult, otherwise he must step aside for another technical director to do the right thing, I think so, I'm not a Barcelona fan but they must do something quickly.

Here the following is speculated for the match with Atlético:

Injury update: Barcelona forward expected to be fit in time for Atletico Madrid clash

Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele gave a big scare when his side took on Intercity in the round of 32 of Copa del Rey during the week. 

By the end of regulation minutes, the team from the third tier of the Spanish football system had managed to equalise three times, meaning that the two sides needed added minutes to find a winner.

Ultimately, it was Ansu Fati’s goal that differentiated the two teams, but Dembele’s hamstring issue towards the latter part of the game more or less gave Xavi a snag ahead of what is going to be a congested pile of fixtures.

Dembele, who was one of the scorers during the game, was arguably the biggest threat for Intercity. But during a volleyed attempt from inside the area, the French forward seemed to have hurt himself as he was seen holding his hamstrings.

The 25-year-old dropped off to the ground and needed help from his teammate to stretch his leg. Following a brief medical attention, he limped off towards the touchline but entered the field in no time.

Bad results were obtained by Elche again when they faced Celta Vigo, even though playing host Elche was also unable to secure full points and eventually continued to slump in the relegation zone by only collecting 4 points. Meanwhile, Celta Vigo was finally able to escape at least from last week which was also in the relegation zone.

by taking advantage of assists from sobrino, alcaraz succeeded in giving victory to cadiz. cadiz may not dominate in this match but the attack they make is far more effective than valencia

cadiz should continue to do well as they are close to the relegation zone. Espanyol and Sevilla will definitely continue to play hard to get out of the relegation zone, so Cadiz must not make a mistake

It's pathetic about Valencia. Spain's third city could have a better team but it hasn't been able to lift its head up for many years, I'd say since 2007 or so, when they started building a new stadium, and because of bad financial decisions, it has yet to be finished.

Surprise, I think Valencia will win but Cadiz is more effective.  25% possession, 2 shots towards goal 1 became a goal. There's not much Cadiz does they pile up a lot of players on defense. They also rely on counterattacks. This victory at least moved Cadiz up and out of the Relegation Zone. Two straight defeats give them a chance at the Mallorca salip. Because Mallorca have one game less

Next Villareal vs. Madrid, I hope Madrid always wins and gets 3 points.
