La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Furious 7]

I think just because they are missing Dembele doesn't mean that they are going to end up with a loss, doesn't mean they are going to get a win, but it also doesn't mean they won't lose if Dembele was there neither. It's football and you play it with 11 players, and just because you miss one player doesn't mean that you are going to suddenly su*k.

Haaland is a marvellous striker, he has already scored more than last years top goal scorer, and yet without him City still ends up winning games anyway. That's the type of situation good teams are in and that is why it matters. I believe that we should not be really expecting anything more from Barcelona or anything less.

They are now again exploiting Gavi to get used to playing on the wing and the results are still not showing things that are good.
This first half seemed a bit monotonous because there haven't been any good opportunities so far, but there is still a big chance for Barcelona with their possession of the ball. The second half kicks off now and I expected some real changes from Xavi's scheme in this second half.

It's football and you play it with 11 players, and just because you miss one player doesn't mean that you are going to suddenly su*k.

I agree with you when talking about the chances of both teams. Real Betis and Barcelona both have the chance to win and it depends on how they take their chances even if they don't play well.

As far as the first half went, Barcelona seemed to be in good control of this match. They tend to press Real Betis better and have some good chances, but unfortunately Pedri has not been able to maximize those opportunities. I believe Barcelona could score goals if they played more calmly and measuredly. For a while, the score 0-0 still lasted until 30 minutes of the first half.

For the first half both teams played with caution I think and it was quite boring.
Now that the second half has started, of course the hope is that one of the teams will start to make a breakthrough because indeed the dominance of Barcelona's ball possession and Betis' defense has made this less attractive considering that the ball is mostly played in the middle and so far the game has been minimal with opportunity.

[emrecemsan]

Gavi is not a player who can fill Dembele's place in the same way. Because their skillsets are completely different. Dembele is more like a player who can take a big responsibility for the team to carry them to the victory. He is a very confident player due to having a great technique as well. Gavi is also a very skilled and promising player of course. But he is more like a team player. I mean he doesn't seem like he is the type he can do extra by himself but who knows maybe he can improve his game more in that way as well.

Dembele's absence is felt in this match. But I still believe in Lewandowski to do an extra job and bring the victory. I expect him to score the winning goal and Barcelona to win by 1-0.

[BITCOIN4X]

The bookies predict Barcelona will win 3 points with a larger odds multiplication given to Real Betis.
Let's watch the match already started.

The fact is that Barcelona really struggled to find goals in the match against Real Betis. Raphinha got the goal in the first half, but he was in an offside position so the goal was disallowed. While 0-0 lasted until the second half, and this match really had high tension.

As expected, against Real Betis was really difficult for Barcelona. I saw Pedri had several chances but they all failed. Even though both teams had quite a lot of time during the second half, but I don't think this is a match that has more than 2 goals in the end. If Barcelona wins, then they will only win 1 goal today.

[GiftedMAN]

It is not typical for Valencia to be so close from the relegation, just one point, but I would say the same about other teams with the same points Espanyol and Celta de Vigo (played well against Athletic last weekend), or Sevilla who is one point ahead. They are performing atypically bad but this bad streak can change at any time. That said, if Valencia managed to draw or even win Real Madrid tomorrow, we all would be surprised and it would be a hard setback for Madrid, but I think that they have more possibilities than we think.

I read the news of the local media, after losing to Valladolid Gattuso officially in the sack. Of course I agree a bit with this decision, Gattuso's stats are poor. Gattuso has even only got 20 points from 18 games. This is only a 1-point gap from the relegation zone. Currently Valencia is coached by 'Voro' Gonzalez." I don't know much about this coach, but if you look at the coach's statistics, it turns out that he is the former coach of Valencia B. So it seems that he is quite familiar with the current state of Valencia. But I'm also not quite sure of his current ability.

That was a good step by Valencia and also the signature of an ex-player is something I love, who has good understanding and habits of the club and fans before now. I want to see them challenge Real Madrid tommorow and if in any way win Real Madrid during that game.

Tonight it's good to see Barcelona winning once again, extending the points to eight points above Real Madrid who are yet to play tommorow. It is also great that Lewandoski and Raphina are scoring. The good defense remains and praises to Xavi for the improvement

Now 3 goals have been scored in this match although one of Kounde's goals was scored against himself
His condition is now quite good and seeing from the current time the match is almost over because there are only a few minutes left in this match.
Barcelona now gets 3 more points and it will be very dangerous for Madrid if they have to lose full points in their meeting against Valencia tomorrow.

[indah rezqi]

It seems that only Barcelona, ​​Napoli and Arsenal have actually managed to collect 50 points in 19 matches from 5 different domestic leagues. By this time Barcelona were 1-2 ahead of Real Betis, Raphinha and Lewandowski scored for Barcelona's victory, while Kounde scored an own goal. Barcelona will try to maintain this victory so that they actually lock up 50 points in 19 matches. The team's performance was absolutely outstanding even though they lost Dembele through injury.

Barcelona has become one of the title contenders this season after Xavi made his team rise since last season. This is really good because last season Real Madrid did not get strong competitor.

Sure, it is the right decision. They deserve to get a better coach to improve their position on the table. Moreover, Gattuso has bad stats during his management in Valencia. Just look at the table of La Liga, Valencia position is in 14th place now, surely it is not the position of a big club like Valencia. I don't know what Gattuso did on Valencia, but it looks not the right way. Gattuso didn't deserve to continue his career as Valencia coach, Valencia management must fire him and get a better coach for the replacement.

Good step from Barcelona, they did not waste opportunities when Madrid draw meaning the right time for Barcelona for further continue to collect points
And Madrid should not do a mistake again if they want to stay in the race, Madrid tomorrow against Valencia there is no other choice they have to win too
Because Barcelona as the main competitor continues to be consistent with a successive wins obviously not a good situation to compete.

He was not in Valencia for too long but indeed Gatuso could not turn on Valencia which indeed brought him to improve his performance but instead they were even lower because Gatuso failed even though maybe not all of this was the coach's fault when the team's performance decreased still in terms of coach's football was one of the first to be blamed. Now their condition is also a bit difficult because they will face Madrid in the midst of a change of coach.

Barcelona won but it wasn't easy. Real Betis put a lot of pressure in the first half. They also got good positions, but they were weak on the last hit. Barcelona relaxed a bit after Raphinha's goal. When Lewandowski scored the 2nd goal, the match felt like it was over, but when Kounde scored an own goal, Betis felt hopeful again. Barcelona could have snatched the game much earlier. Anyway, they got an important 3 points in a difficult away game. Now the point gap is 8 and the pressure on Real Madrid has increased.

[Davian144]

In this case, Betis cannot be considered trivial considering that they are also one of the clubs that is quite troublesome, but with Barcelona's current condition and with Betis' performance which is still constrained by consistency, I think Barcelona will do their best for 3 points, even though it is currently Madrid. there's still a 5 point gap but it's still not the time for them to relax.

From the results of the match that was finished, it was clear that Real Betis was really bothered by Barcelona because Real Betis got a little advantage through an own goal that was accidentally committed by one of the Barcelona players, namely Jules Kounde. And this goal left Real Betis only one goal behind until the match was over. But before the match was over, everyone could see that one of the Real Betis players had received a red card even though it was at the end of the match

What was Jules Kounde really thinking about doing in that position, he scored an own goal somehow. Barcelona strees after 85 minutes because of this goal, this mistake could have created big results, it still doesn't make up for the mistake made. With this win, Barcelona continues to widen the point gap. It was a team that won 9 wins in 10 matches, even though it scored few goals.

It is so exciting to see Barcelona not missing the opportunity,  the best thing for them to do if they want to lead the league is for them to make sure to give real madrid good gap that will be difficult for Real Madrid to think of meeting them. This point that Barcelona has achieved will give them the strength to strive for more points. Nice performance from Barcelona,  despite the game was kind of tough at the beginning of the game but they still made their way to secure two goals.

[Slow death]

Barcelona won but it wasn't easy.

even before the game started, it was already predicted that the game would not be an easy game, just see that the odd in case barcelona won this game was an odd that was at @ 1.70, but it was also predicted that barcelona would win this game because it has a good defense and a good attack, it would be very difficult for barcelona to concede many goals in this game, but it was easier for barcelona to score a goal. I particularly had no doubts that Barcelona would come out of this game with victory

now my concern is in the game between real madrid and valencia, since real madrid has become a very inconsistent team, i preferred to make cashed out



i had to do this to prevent real madrid from destroying my parlay, but i will make another bet on the real madrid match, anyway barcelona fans have plenty of reason to celebrate

In the end, Odds 1.65 did not disappoint in this regard, even though the last 10 minutes were a bit of a shock as a result of Kounde's own goal.
On the other hand, now maybe Madrid will make tomorrow's match 3 points because regardless of anything now they need points to reduce the margin with Barcelona, especially with Valencia's current condition which is indeed a little difficult due to the change of a new coach.

With the current conditions, it's still a little complicated when talking about Madrid, but I think when you look at Valencia's current condition, it's still quite worth it to actually do it, even though Cash Out can still be good when you're not too sure.
Btw speaking of Barcelona it is quite happy to see Lewandowski again scoring goals for them in La Liga after several games before not seeing his name on the scoreboard.

[rahmad2nd]

In this match, Real Betis could become a stumbling block for Barcelona to keep going with its positive trend. the reason is, currently Barcelona will not be strengthened by Dembele who suffered an injury against Girona. based on the predicted starting line-up that I read from several sources, Torres and Raphinha will be installed in this match. Pedri, De Jong, Gavi, are still the mainstays of the midfield. the rest, not much change in defense.

Meanwhile, Real Betis will play the full starting line-up for this game. however, if we refer to the last match of their meeting. I think the Supercopa de Espana match is different from La Liga. I mean, yesterday's match was a semifinal battle which motivated Betis to put up a tough fight against Barcelona. however, in this match I think that Barcelona will dominate the entire course of the match. my estimation, Barcelona will win this match with a score of 2-1.

I think just because they are missing Dembele doesn't mean that they are going to end up with a loss, doesn't mean they are going to get a win, but it also doesn't mean they won't lose if Dembele was there neither. It's football and you play it with 11 players, and just because you miss one player doesn't mean that you are going to suddenly su*k.

Haaland is a marvellous striker, he has already scored more than last years top goal scorer, and yet without him City still ends up winning games anyway. That's the type of situation good teams are in and that is why it matters. I believe that we should not be really expecting anything more from Barcelona or anything less.

And like I said, Dembele is a key player for Barcelona. his absence is quite influential, especially on the wing he occupies. however, I'm not saying that without Dembele Barcelona cannot win their matches. in soccer, the absence of one of the core players can be fatal to the team's performance as a whole and these are the things that we as gamblers consider. we are looking for all available information from all aspects, team problems, injuries, performances, is the information we need as a reference when we bet.

but because I assume, Barcelona still has other options that can replace Dembele's role. and proven, what I predict is precise and accurate. Barcelona won with a score of 1-2, even without Dembele. and as I posted above, Barcelona will control the game. Barcelona has 64% ball possession, 13 shots 3 of which are on target, 6 off target, 4 blocked shots.
by the way, actually we don't expect much from Barcelona in this match if for no reason. but because based on the analysis I did before, I predict that the final result will be with a score of 1-2. and yes, looks like I just got lucky.

Well, it's too early to talk about the breakaway yet and we'll watch Real Madrid play their match. There is still a full 2nd round of the championship ahead and a lot more can change, and indeed in the current conditions for Xavi and his wards, the most important thing now is to continue to win and score points. And then how the situation will develop. It seems that Real Madrid is slowly getting out of the semblance of a crisis situation in which it found itself earlier. And you don't even need to talk about the ability of Real Madrid to get out of almost hopeless situations. The only thing that is alarming is the fact of a complete lack of transfer activity in the winter.

Yes, so far, Barcelona are really getting better in their performances and they are able to be consistent in taking advantage of every opportunity to conquer opponents and win so they can get full points. This makes Barcelona further away from the points of its opponent, Real Madrid. Meanwhile on the Real Madrid side we still don't know how it will turn out because the match will take place tomorrow against Valencia. If you look at their performance, Real Madrid should also be able to win. but when I see how they have been doing lately, I'm a little worried that Real Madrid won't get full 3 points again. What's more, their game lately has been less consistent and accurate on the front lines, less pressing and sharp as before.
