La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[posi]

I will be clear about one thing. Villarreal couldn't win any home match against Barcelona since 2007. It is a really serious record and psychological advantage for Barcelona clearly. Now we see Villarreal not having a proper season as well. They even lost to a team like Elche the last time. I mean Elche have got their only win against Villarreal as you know. Villarreal got two losses in a row and this would affect their morale negatively I assume. Barcelona are their opposite version now. They are the most consistent team in the league.

I only worry about the possibility that Barcelona might also lose points surprisingly like Real Madrid did in this stadium not long ago. But 1.80 odd is given to Barcelona and it is really tempting to me. 

Barcelona should not lose this match against Villarreal. After all, Barcelona is in perfect form right now. And on the other hand, their opponent is not consistent at all right now. I believe Barcelona is going to want to keep the eight points advantage that they have over their rival Real Madrid right now. So of course Barcelona is going to try to go for the win. And I do not see how they can be beaten by Villarreal in this match. Unless something surprising happens, Barcelona should be able to win this match easily.

this is a match between middle and bottom stand, but looks interesting to bet because balances each for others. If you look at how Girona has bit low odds from Cadiz, the guest will have a chance to 3 points. but is not easy, because Cadiz has great vitality when play at home, they never lose in 3 matches, on the last one, they beat MU 4-2 at Cadiz's home.

Girona is some potential for winning that's why they offer some less Odd then Cadiz but Girona not much stronger then Cadiz. both team equity strong thats why it is very difficult to make a potential prediction. Girona offer low Odd but i have doubt that they can win the match  Cadiz team management is good so they have chance for to winning. i am supporting Cadiz in my own prediction. But I am not too excited about this match.

If asked to place a bet, I would bet on Cadiz on this match, but I don't want to risk betting on this match even though the odds for Cadiz are slightly higher. I don't mean to underestimate Girona, who is in a much better position, but sometimes a small team like Cadiz often gives unexpected surprises. Even though in the previous match Girona won over their opponent Valencia and while Cadiz had to lose by a landslide to Bilbao, these results do not change my perception of Cadiz that it is likely they will win this match.

It seems like betting on cadiz is not bad at all. Cadiz is always doing so well when it plays at its home. Im not sure if cadiz will be able to beat girona easily. Cadiz may have good record but it's only against another team that is placed near with cadiz. Cadiz is always having bad result against a team that has placed far above it. The odds seems pretty interesting caused by girona's odd is also almost as big as cadiz. It seems risking my money for girona looks good caused by girona will have more chance to win compared with cadiz.
I may pick girona in this case with more than 60% probability to win against cadiz.

Barcelona seem to be the most trustworthy team in the league currently. They are better against smaller teams comparing to Real Madrid. We have all witnessed that shocking point loss of Real Madrid against Mallorca indeed.

Their consistency in developing and increasing their performance this season is much better than other clubs, moreover in the big clubs in La Liga. Xavi can really manage their squad much better and well-prepared this season, moreover, after some great players were added during the market transfer. The spending for the new players is really worthwhile moreover because they are in the top standing in La Liga with a good gap of the point with their first rival, Real Madrid. Although they have failed in the European Champions League, at least, they can maximize their performance to get trophies in La Liga and also European League.

In fact, what Xavi has achieved at this time has already been achieved by many of the former ex-Barcelona coaches, so Xavi looks normal in fact, nothing special.  but i still appreciate what xavi is doing, he is good at negotiations and what i applaud is when he managed to persuade Lewandowski to play at barca.  The positive results obtained by Barcelona have so far been inseparable from the role of Lewandowski who has been very active in scoring goals.  the la liga trophy this season is in front of Barcelona's eyes.

[Oluwa-btc]

Xavi has built a strong team, I think the Barcelona management trusted him, that's why they have patient in him. And he has proven to be  Barcelona coach with a threaten squad. I'm sure Barcelona will maintain this 8 points ahead of Real Madrid the Spanish league giant to clinch the league title this season. Real Madrid and other top team in the league are struggling this season, This is  the only opportunity Barcelona and Xavi has to win it. Xavi Hernandez squad don't need to lose any much again, the worse results should be draw.

He's a legend, he knows what the fans dream of he knows the culture how they play and how they attack, so I think the management knows him very well. And if you take a look at the work he's done for Al Sadd you'll see he has a good plan for Barcelona likewise. Gradually, he's silenced the critics of him having a bad start especially been the lesser winner when it comes to Koeman, Valverde and Luis Enrique.

Much will be appreciated if he can round it up against Real in the fast approaching El Clasico, I'd love to see him winning that game.
The Squad not as quality as a Barcelona side should be but eventually next season he'll get the desired player's to match his tactics and play.

well at the beginning many criticized Xavi, the peak of criticism was when Barcelona exited the Champions League
I don't understand people who make easy judgments without
- really know how to train a team
- without giving people time to do their job

good things happen by working at it many, they don't snap their fingers

[giammangiato]

but in fact I don't understand this fury against Xavi
he has more people who hate him than people who respect him, yet he is working very well in my opinion too
witness the fact that Barcelona are first in the table and that they play very professionally and calmly even when they are losing and time is running out
it means that the players are mentally there

And why did you decide that Xavi has a lot of fury? I did not notice this. He is young, ambitious and showing great results even with so little experience in his coaching career, he has a great future ahead of him. If he still managed to reach the playoffs of the Champions League, then it would be just a great season, by the way, I still don’t understand how they managed to lose to Inter. Xavi can also win La Liga, this is also an excellent result.

[ShowOff]

Barcelona seem to be the most trustworthy team in the league currently. They are better against smaller teams comparing to Real Madrid. We have all witnessed that shocking point loss of Real Madrid against Mallorca indeed. Of course they can concede a goal but the interesting part was their not being able to score even one goal. Although you have very effective attackers how can't you score even once? It doesn't matter whether they have Benzema or not in a match like that.

Therefore Barcelona are highly favoured against Villarreal on paper. If we were able to see the old Villarreal then I would say Barcelona would struggle. But I don't think they will have too big problems.

Barcelona has displayed well from the beginning of this tournament till now, that made many people to believed that they have the capacity to defeat any small or big team in this season to increase higher to a level it will be difficult for Real Madrid or any strong teams to drop them down. Since Barcelona coach has solved all the problems affecting Barcelona since Lionel Messi left, I think they have the opportunity to win this la Liga league title and many titles to come. If Barcelona squads can maintain their coach instructions in their remaining matches, I think their players will have something special to embrace on the final judgement.

Ahead of the match against Villarreal at the weekend, Barcelona firmly expects to be able to maintain its great form this season. All the first team are available for this match as I could see in their training sessions at the Ciutat Esportiva "except Dembele who is still dealing with his injury". I also hope they can maintain their form, and once again this is home match which should allow them to maintain their unbeaten record.

I'm very confident and also optimistic about Barcelona, ​​and now it's all backed up by interesting facts about Barcelona's struggles this season in La Liga, here they are:

Four reasons for optimism

Every time the blaugranes have reached 53 points or more after 20 games, they have gone on to win La Liga.

• The first precedent comes in the 2008/09 season, the first under Pep Guardiola as coach. The blaugranes recorded 53 points in 20 matches, an identical record to Xavi's team although this season the team have conceded just seven goals where in 2008/09 at this point in the campaign they had let in 14. Guardiola's Barça side went to claim the league title that season with 87 points at the end of the season, winning 27 games, drawing six and losing just five.
• Two seasons later Barça repeated that excellent start to the campaign. In 2010/11 Guardiola's team recorded 18 wins in 20 matches, claiming a total of 55 points. At the end of the season 96 points was enough to take the league title, four points ahead of their nearest rivals. In 2012/13 Barça again claimed 55 points in 20 matches and went to win La Liga once more with a total of 100 points
• The most recent precedent comes in the 2017/18 campaign when the team picked up 54 points in the first 20 games of the campaign with 17 wins and three draws. At the end of the season a total of 93 points from 28 wins, 9 draws and just one defeat was enough for another league championship.
• So, in short, the omens are good as every time Barça have reached a total of 53 points in the first 20 matches of the league season they have ended the campaign as La Liga champions.

Villareal is an opponent that can challenge Barcelona and can prevent Barcelona to have three points. The injury of Dembele and his missing are one of things Barcelona don't want to have but they have other players who can replace Dembele. Their system works well and other players can cover the missing of Dembele. With that good system, they won't have to rely only on a single player to replace Dembele. I expect to see good performance from Ansu Fati and he should take advantage of Dembele injury to reclaim his position and more important role in Barcelona. It would be important for him if he can get part of his best performance in this season and will be able to play better in a next season.

They have good advantage and history supports them too but it is too early to say about title. Real Madrid are still there and they are not a weak competitor.

[execijutiere]

Sevilla have moved a little bit away from the relegation zone with the points they have gained in recent weeks. But it's not good enough for them. They have to get out of this pot and this is actually easy for them. They need to regain their old form and want to push for the top as soon as possible.
Valencia is also on a bad run, just like Seville. They also need to catch a winning streak and climb up the table as soon as possible. Otherwise it looks like they will be relegated too. The situation is not good.

No, of course not. I wouldn't think Villareal are a weak team away at Camp Nou this weekend, but I do believe Barcelona are absolutely worth the favourites. It is hoped that the good performance record so far can be maintained so that its position in the standings is safe from its competitors.

The difference of 8 points from Real Madrid is something good, it is an advantage that will allow Barcelona to appear free without too much pressure. Then I don't expect Villareal to be underestimated, and because of that Xavi really knows that Villareal is a strong opponent even if they lose 2 matches in a row. It is very possible for Villarreal to try to play well and improve their team's performance following those two defeats right now.

They will try to bounce back and will obviously give everything for themselves instead of stopping Barcelona's run at the top of the table. And sure enough, one of the Villarreal players stated that to the media.

Pau Torres; “We want to bounce back from recent negative results”

“It was a pity that we couldn’t pick up points in these last two games because our direct rivals also dropped points. This shows how difficult it is to win in LaLiga and it will be like that until the end of the season because all the teams need to win. Elche was a very hard blow, but we want to bounce back by winning this Sunday,” said Pau about Villarreal’s last two defeats against Rayo Vallecano and Elche.

Quique Setién’s side have a golden opportunity to make up for recent negative results against league leaders FC Barcelona. Pau said of Barcelona: “They are a team in great form, who dominate many phases of the game, who like to have the ball and who are more vertical than in previous years. For us, the game depends on us pressing well and handling the ball well when we have it.”

Of course you are right, it's something that's too early to tell, but that's how history was made over the past few seasons. It's just about history, and so the team can be well motivated to repeat it this season.

Right. maybe, Villarreal can become a stumbling block for Barcelona to gain full points in the match later. but Unfortunately, Villarreal's current form is inconsistent. in their last two matches, Villarreal was defeated by Rayo and fell when competing against Elche. so I doubt, the home team can keep up with Barcelona's game. even though Dembele was absent in this match, it looks like Xavi still has other player options like Raphinha who played quite well against Sevilla.

Meanwhile, Barcelona is performing a very positive trend. it seems very difficult for Villarreal topple the away team in the match later. especially at the first meeting this season, Villarreal was slaughtered 3-0. IMO, I wouldn't be surprised if Xavi would tweak his formation and strategy against Villarreal. because Xavi will maximize his team to continue to widen the points gap from his rival, Real Madrid.

Moreover, Barcelona also has a crucial match that will meet United in the Europa League playoff round, so it looks like Xavi will maximize his troops to earn full points before focusing on the match against United.

It was just close and it was rejected even by Mbappe himself by choosing the abundance of money and authority that PSG gave to Mbappe.
At the moment, is Madrid going to take action that really isn't really necessary, in my opinion, because regardless of trying to approach Mbappe, it just seems like they haven't found any other options.
I know Mbappe is one of the best now but it does seem forced to just go back to Mbappe again and again.

Real Madrid have no other option but to approach Mbappe at the end of the season so they can find a suitable striker to replace Benzema.
Mbappe has a high release clause, but one that Real Madrid may be obliged to fulfill if they are interested in Mbappe. It's honest that Real Madrid were very disappointed when Mbappe chose to stay at PSG this season, but that is the player's right even if many people think he has been influenced by big money.

So now Real Madrid have a chance to make that wish come true, but they will have to spend a lot of money on Mbappe if PSG are willing to sell him next season. Mbappe is a great striker, and he deserves the high price.

Do you really have to be that naive by not looking at self-esteem that has been rejected several times? I think the pride of Perez is still very big and actually with things like this it has become the real thing as if nobody deserves to be at Madrid more than Mbappe.
Indeed, in terms of the quality of today's young players, he is one of the best, but that does not mean that you have to sacrifice everything for this player like PSG did because indeed it will only damage the image of football again if there is a player who is more privileged than before.

Mbappe has rejected offers from Real Madrid several times. And has disappointed Madrid fans several times. Every season for the last few years we hear that Mbappe will join Madrid. But each time Mbappe renewed his contract with PSG. In this situation, Real Madrid does not seem to be interested in Mbappe yet.
Also if Mbappe joins Madrid he will want to establish his dominance over Madrid as he is doing at PSG. But the Madrid management is not willing to give any player that much power. Rumor has it that Galtier formed PSG's squad according to Mbappe's wishes. Also, Mbappe's selfish behavior will be difficult for Madrid's players to adapt to.

Sevilla have moved a little bit away from the relegation zone with the points they have gained in recent weeks. But it's not good enough for them. They have to get out of this pot and this is actually easy for them. They need to regain their old form and want to push for the top as soon as possible.
Valencia is also on a bad run, just like Seville. They also need to catch a winning streak and climb up the table as soon as possible. Otherwise it looks like they will be relegated too. The situation is not good.

It will be facing mallorca in upcoming match. Sevilla may lose easily against mallorca by seeing how good the performance of mallorca against real madrid. I doubt if sevilla will be winning against mallorca. I just learned from the match against madrid if mallorca was a team that can't be underrated.
Mallorca might make sevilla dive even deeper again into the relegation zone. Mallorca can steal full points easily from sevilla without any problem. It seems to me putting a choice in mallorca is far better.

Sevilla might have a very good head to head against malloca but it seems that mallorca is a bit different this time caused by it will be coming with strong squads.

So far their points are still quite threatened by the relegation zone position, because from 20 matches they have only been able to collect 21/20 points. In the previous season, Sevilla was a team that competed in the top five of the standings, in fact, they were a team that always made it difficult for Real Madrid and Barcelona. The coaches of both teams must carry out a massive evaluation and try to motivate the players, otherwise they will find it difficult to move up the mid-table rankings and Valencia's position is quite risky towards the relegation zone at the end of the season, because at the moment they are very inconsistent.

Mallorca is much better than Sevilla this season and I think this match will also make it difficult for Sevilla to get full points at home, because Mallorca just beat Real Madrid in the previous week, whereas Valencia had not won any of their former five clashes. Even though facing Athletic Bilbao at home, getting full points is very difficult in the current state of the game.

Mbappe has turned down Real Madrid's offers so far and is willing to extend his contract with PSG. This decision will obviously benefit PSG a lot because otherwise I think Real Madrid would definitely get Mbappe for free due to his expiring contract. On the one hand, PSG succeeded in seducing Mbappe to extend his contract so that anyone who wanted to sign him had to pay PSG a heavy price.

If Real Madrid really has pride, then they shouldn't be able to seduce Mbappe to refuse a contract extension and let it expire. Real Madrid will have to spend a lot of money on PSG if they want Mbappe, that's normal. I'm not really sure about your assumptions at this point because after all Real Madrid are still very interested in signing Mbappe until now.

Even though this has improved, I don't think this is enough for them.
The conditions are still the same because this is not their place even though now they have improved enough and are no longer in the relegation zone.
This week they will face Mallorca. Actually, it can still be for them in 3 points but seeing Mallorca's performance last week against Madrid and their previous heavy defeat, it is clear that this is still something that is a little complicated for them.
