La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Naficopa]

Atletico Madrid will need to focus on the La Liga only from now on. It is a very poor season for them as they are out of the Champions League and Copa del Rey both already. In the La Liga also things aren't going well for them obviously. They aren't even close to the front row for a title race. Atletico Madrid have lost a lot of their strength. There is no such team that can fight with Barcelona and Real Madrid at a similar level. This is a sign for Simeone to leave the team after a long time of working here also.

Yeah I really think he should leave the team before being sacked by the team. It is the best for both sides. In this way Atletico Madrid can find a better fitting coach to reach the level they deserve with this squad.

Nobody should resign I think because even now Atletico is back in the top four. Even though it is still very vulnerable to being overtaken by the teams below it, but with Diego Simeone still able to provide good results for Atletico, Atletico are still doing well.
Unless Atletico are bottom of La Liga as Sevilla have previously, then Diego Simeone will probably resign or be sacked.
But so far in my opinion Atletico are still doing well, so let Diego Simeone coach Atletico until the end of his contract and it will be better for Diego Simeone and for Atletico too.

Yes, Atletico Madrid should now be back in shape and performing better than before but we cannot forget that 18 weeks passed so far and it's more than half season which is a lot and Atletico Madrid got only 31 points from all these 18 games which are not bad but if you compare the situation of Atletico Madrid which other similar teams on the top of the table you can understand that Barcelona got 44 points and the played one game less than Atletico Madrid which can make it hard for Diego Simeone to take them this season.

Barcelona and Real Madrid have a lot of potential in La Liga. Because these two teams are performing very poorly. Barcelona are currently in their best form. Whichever of these two teams is expected to win the La Liga title.

Still, I think that with the current condition, Simeone is actually too selfish with his position.
He has been at Atletico for a long time but after they won La Liga his performance has dropped a lot in the last 2 seasons even though they are still in the top 4 in the end it's still a little complicated when they always do the usual things by always playing defensively as the most common strategy for them.
I think there needs to be an update in terms of the coaching staff, regardless of anything a strategy like this isn't really used at the moment.

The closest match in Laliga is the match Almeria vs Espanyol. Historically, we know that Almeria has never won in the last few meetings against Espanyol. And this season it seems that Almeria is not showing consistent performance. Having experienced 9 defeats this season, it is unlikely that Almeria will be favored in this match. However, as the host, Almeria will certainly play to the fullest. and of course Almeria still has a chance to win in this fight.

It is difficult to make predictions for the bottom team, because it is often surprising when playing with a team of the same quality, Espanyol is currently one point ahead of Almeria who is ranked 14th in the standings, Espanyol has a capital of two wins and one defeat. Meanwhile, Almeria got two draws and one defeat in its last three matches. Based on the results of the previous three matches Espanyol's chances are very big according to my predictions.

The other two matches will bring Cadiz vs Mallorca and Girona vs Barcelona in La Liga, the match will be more interesting between Girona vs Barcelona, I will choose Mallorca and Barcelona who come out victorious, moreover Xavi needs points to get further away from Real Madrid.

But sometimes when you look at the game for positions in the middle and bottom standings it is even more interesting because they often have good games and quite a lot of opportunities considering their balanced qualities.
likewise with this match because they want to take advantage of a match with 3 points.
5 minutes into time Espanyol were in control wanting to take the game early on.

[ShowOff]

The goal scored by Rodrygo in the 79th minute made the score 1-1 which forced Atletico to continue the match into extra time. Atletico were really unlucky in this game, after failing to maintain their advantage, they had to play with 10 players after Stefan Savic received a red card in the 99th minute.
As a result of losing the number of players, Atletico had to concede two goals in extra time through Benzema and Vinicius which made the score turn 3-1 up for Real Madrid victory.

The defeat to Real Madrid in the Copa Del Rey meant that Atletico had to end this season without a trophy because they had previously been knocked out of the Champions League and had difficulty catching a point deficit from Barcelona. This defeat also extended Atletico record defeat to Real Madrid, Atletico must be consistent in La Liga to secure a place in the top four positions to go to the Champions League next season.

Real Madrid are the favorites in that match, but Real Madrid's dip in form so far has left them trailing Atletico Madrid. Atletico Madrid managed to force Real Madrid to play up to 120 minutes, but fatigue and one player short made them unable to hold on until the penalty shootout. Real Madrid managed to take advantage of 1 man to score goal, but the red card was completely unexpected.

Next, I don't expect El Clasico in the semifinals, but I expect Real Madrid and Barcelona to be in the final again. That is the best wish for me, regardless of who wins the title.

[Raflesia]

I don’t think that this is some kind of special tactic - it’s just that Real Madrid has the will to win and they play to the end. It seems to me that none of the teams wants to postpone the denouement of the match until the last minute. Real Madrid often succeed in the final minutes because many teams can't handle the pressure of Real Madrid for the entire match. We can say that there is an analogy with boxing and "champion rounds".

Madrid is an extraordinary team, in the several matches that have occurred, they have always won when the match was almost over. Atletico Madrid led 1-0 at half-time but at the end, everything changed, Benzema, Vini, and Rodrygo were brilliant players.

King of comeback. that's real madrid. It has proven once its opponent was making a mistake and that will make the opponent faces its lose against madrid. The situation has changed when madrid was able making goal at the second half. Atletico madrid has been performing so well but red card was changing everything. I think that the player that got red card must be blamed caused by he was making a big mistake against madrid at the additional time.
That's his biggest mistake that was giving madrid chance to comeback

In the end they were still the same as usual by always going all out when the match was almost over and the last 10 minutes when facing Madrid were clearly one of the biggest threats because they were indeed different.
Atlético's defense is strong and I admit that but look at Rodrygo's way past some of the Atlético defenders it's absolutely beautiful for a young man. On the other hand, they are increasingly losing concentration and there are lots of unnecessary violations that make Madrid have an advantage in this match.
Now there are only 4 names for the Copa del Rey semi-final. I hope the Barcelona Madrid final will happen again.

[Ratash]

Almeria vs espanyol is a high stake games in my opinion both teams has been performing well recently but they are not safe from relegation, only few points separate them from it so the team who manage to win today will benefit greatly i think almeria are a slight favourite since they are playing home and seeing how well they are controlling the game so far i think they can win but only if they manage to score quickly otherwise it will become difficult by each passing minute.

[Pulsar77]

I believe Sevilla will improve their morale even more by defeating Elche as well. This is a comfortable match for Sevilla despite their very inconsistent form. They at least started to get wins finally and this should definitely be some help for them. Sevilla are getting better at attacking day by day. We are seeing positive things lately as they find many more goal opportunities. This should go on like this if they really want to stay in the La Liga. In time hopefully they will be able to score more goals than now as well.

Maybe the match against Elche will be a match in which they score multiple goals.

Even no red card, I believe Real Madrid can win against Atletico Madrid.
The big change in Atletico Madrid performance happened when Morata and Griezmann left the field, they no longer can give a strong attack as previously. I'm not sure what the reason to send them to the bench too early, but it gives a big influence on Atletico performance. In the second half, I see Simeone use more defensive players, it makes Real Madrid easier to get more opportunities to score. And even if they reached a penalty shootout, I assume Real Madrid to win it as well.

Next, I don't expect El Clasico in the semifinals, but I expect Real Madrid and Barcelona to be in the final again. That is the best wish for me, regardless of who wins the title.

Agree. Ideally, the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona should be in the final round. It is very unfortunate if they meet in the semi-final round.

It's good tonsee they finally won the game against Athletico Madrid but that doesn't hide the fact that they're a very derailing side this season for the past five or six fixtures. Before the World Cup and after the Cup. Real Madrid has shown a drop in how they possess the ball in midfied.

One thing is sure, if same way they did perform last night was repeated, they're missing out on the La Liga Competition and award.
If they still get to another finals, Barcelona will show how much they have improved and win the game, I want to win two trophies I might sound a bit biased but still not a Barcelona fan. I just want to see them clear to financial issues arising.

Sevilla should keep their previous victory to be a big capital when facing Elche. Sevilla has finally come out of the relegation zone which makes all the players maybe even more enthusiastic about continuing to make a big contribution in the match against Elche.

on paper, maybe Sevilla will be able to beat Elche easily because Elche is a team that has not been able to find its best form. rakitic was able to be the hero when Sevilla beat cadiz and hope he can do this against elche.

[el kaka22]

Real is definitely a great team. They are a perfect team for tournaments, I do not know what makes them so great at tournaments better than everyone else, but I am pretty sure that it's something special and definitely something that takes a bit of their time to specialize in that.

They managed to get the win very late in the game but they did, and they do this all the time, they work the defense up all game and try to either find a spot they can get in, or they even learn and adapt during the game itself, and after they tire the defense out, they just do what they do best. They have done this against the best teams of the world, and keep doing it again.

[3meek]

So far, Almería are beating Espanyol and their position in the standings is shrinking... If Espanyol continue to play with almost no attacks, they definitely won't score any points in this game... Honestly, I thought they were the favourites for this match, but I think Almeria are playing better... The interesting thing is that Espanyol had good game stats, better than Almeria...

[Iroh]

I do expect a match against Barcelona and Real Madrid to face off in the finals. I think Barcelona is in top form being currently at the top of the la liga table. I believe Real Madrid would go on to face Barcelona in the finals and in my opinion, Barcelona is more favored to win the game. They’re arguably better than their opponents and are more likely to win the cup.
Real Madrid hasn’t been playing at their best lately and in my opinion are lucky to having won the game against Atletico Madrid.

Entering the 86th minute in this match, Almeria is now three goals ahead at home to Espanyol and that certainly makes Almeria very lucky because its position is currently starting to be in the middle row on the standings. Meanwhile, Espanyol still has to sit in 14th place in the provisional standings with 20 points. This time, the Espanyol team was really very unfortunate because they had to lose at home to Almeria.

The other two matches will bring Cadiz vs Mallorca and Girona vs Barcelona in La Liga, the match will be more interesting between Girona vs Barcelona, I will choose Mallorca and Barcelona who come out victorious, moreover Xavi needs points to get further away from Real Madrid.

Girona lost in a rather dramatic final after their five game undefeated streak ended in Villarreal. They play better at home, where they have scored in eight of their nine games, and the only game they didn't score was against Celta Vigo in the first weeks of the season. They reinforced the midfield and are in harmony with the defensive line. After reaching the happy ending in the Super Cup, Barcelona passed their league and King's Cup games with low scores and did not give much confidence in football. Especially in the Sociedad match, even though the opposing team played ten players, they gave a lot of positions. Six goals conceded in seventeen games is a great statistic, but I don't think it's easy for them to maintain this with the current game. Lewandowski's sentence continues. I expect mutual goals from Catalan teams. I'm waiting for surprise from Girona.

Yes, Sevilla is already out of the relegation zone. They should maintain a better performance in La Liga matches, it will be a big motivation to win the next match against Elche. Sure, in theory, Sevilla is the favorite team to win, they have a better squad and they are in a better situation. Elche is in the lowest position in La Liga, which means they are the weakest team. Sevilla should be easy to win this match, they must get 3 points to keep away the relegation zone. It will be shameful if Sevilla gets lose or draw in the next match against Elche.

The score of this match ended with 3-1, Espanyol successfully scored in the last minute. With this victory Almeria still has hope in La Liga, hopefully they can continue this good trend because on matchday 20 they will travel to the Estadio de Vallecas to against Rayo Vallecano. Meanwhile, Espanyol will against Osasuna, a tough match for Espanyol to get points there although they will be playing at home.

Actually that's the magic of Real Madrid as usual no matter which players or coach leading this club it's always been the same exciting scenario for important matches with the White house where we enjoy last minutes when they score drawing goal and most likely win the match.

Not only about miracles, but because the Real Madrid players were mentally prepared and they were on fire at the last minute. Therefore, all clubs in La Liga should understand this and not underestimate Real Madrid even though they are already ahead. Because this is the umpteenth time when Real Madrid makes an epic comeback at the last minute which ends in the opposite result. Although even Atletico Madrid chose to increase their defense and pulled out their attackers, it doesn't mean they could maintain it from Real Madrid.

Entering the 86th minute in this match, Almeria is now three goals ahead at home to Espanyol and that certainly makes Almeria very lucky because its position is currently starting to be in the middle row on the standings. .....

The full-time of the result between Almeria and Espanyol is 3 - 1
Espanyol finally could make a goal in the 90 + 3 by Joselu. But, this doesn't change the position, they were lost from Almeria.
From the beginning, Almeria has shown their attacks, they tried to give quite strong attacking and shots to Espanyol, thus making Espanyol's freedom to strike back quite a hassle. Especially after they were left behind, they started to lose focus.

Espanyol reduced the defeat in the last minute and even then from possession Almeria was superior because they played at home in front of their supporters, of course they played better than Espanyol, Almeria's victory got 3 points from this match

The journey for the Finals in this League is still very long and requires a process, there are no candidates who are able to replace these two teams, it feels like the one that dominates in the Finals will always be between Real Madrid and Barcelona. Real Madrid's victory in last night's match made us all know that no easy to beat Real Madrid. The point between Real Madrid and Barcelona at the top of the standings is only 4 points and it will be easy to get when Real Madrid get a win against Real Sociedad in the next match.
