La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[abhiseshakana]

Barcelona's latest victory over Villareal was a close one, and the team may certainly benefit from working to increase its gaps of victory in future matches. And, their 11-point lead in the standings is a significant achievement, and Real Madrid will have to do a lot to catch up. Still, elite clubs can by no means be assured of staying there, and every game presents an opportunity for their opponents to test them. I can't wait to see what happens in the remaining games of the season for Barcelona and the other clubs fighting for the top position

It's not an easy job for Real Madrid to chase Barcelona by 11 points, obviously it's not easy for Real Madrid considering Barcelona performances are very consistent. Barcelona victory over Villareal has made Barcelona even closer to the trophy. Positive results have continued to be achieved without any obstacles in their journey this season. Since the start of the season, only Real Madrid have been able to beat Barcelona.
Barcelona will continue to fight to maintain its position to win the title after last season did not get any title.

If we look at the performance of Real Madrid and Barcelona lately. I think 11 points is a gap that is quite difficult for Real Madrid to catch. Even though Barcelona's attack line was not very productive but their performance is fairly consistent, where they only got one loss and two draws, while the rest is a victory for them. If Barcelona remains consistent and makes as few mistakes as possible, I think this season will belong to them.

Relax, buddy. While you may have enjoyed Real Madrid's poor performance, it was actually the result of Benzema's on- and off-field injuries. I anticipated Barcelona to win today's match by three points, assuming Villarreal didn't mount a comeback in the second half. However, this doesn't mean that Barcelona is far ahead of Real Madrid; they still have a chance to lose to some very tenacious relegation teams, and before you say jack, they are only a few points beside Real Madrid. I've seen this happen in the Premier League, and it could happen here as well.

How can you say that when everyone in the team is worried that Barcelona will leave Real Madrid far behind? You know, 11 points behind Barcelona is a lot, it's not a small number of points to expect Barcelona to give up its good chance for the title. But optimism is necessary, especially if you are a supporter of Real Madrid, and yes, just relax.

You made it sound like having standing on the table is a continuous process to win over and over, 11 point is a wide gap that will be so hard to overlap over night but even Barcelona wouldn't continue to win each of their matches, common!

Real Madrid won the Club World Cup yesterday with good finishing, I didn't expect them to have so many goals, none of Madrid's players are currently injured, we should expect good results soon in here in Laliga.

I hope that doesn't mean much because I'm even very surprised why Real Madrid fielded their main squad only to beat a mediocare team so mercilessly. I think that is the only title for Madrid this season, the rest is highly doubtful.

Lmao, wait, did you expect them to bring in their under-17 players when Al-Hilal came in with their best squad, the same squad that beat Ronaldo's current team to nill, the same team who dominates almost all Saudi's League, lol say something else because Al-Hilal is that team that no one could be compared with, they even create chances to score 2 goals in that final, that tells you that they are a good team. Madrid will bounce back, they are known for this as a Miracle team.

Yes, this is definitely true, in addition Villareal is not very stable lately, in principle it is visible in the standings, but in January they managed to beat Real Madrid. Not that it is a coincidence, but they really fought well, so we can say that against strong teams they play with a very good attitude and motivation, so in any case, today's match for Barcelona is clearly not a passing one, it is necessary to try

Every team will probably be fully aware that stopping Barcelona who are doing well is difficult this season.
Barcelona just ended the first half with a 0-1 win, the collaboration of Pedri and Lewandowski produced 1 goal to close the first half with an advantage. The match was quite interesting because Villarreal, who were playing at home, did not make many mistakes. But the goal was proof that Barcelona really took advantage of their opportunities well. I think it's a really difficult match for both of them, but Barcelona is a team that deserves to take 3 points today.

If Barcelona really win today's match, then that means they will widen the gap with Real Madrid to 11 points. Meanwhile, Real Madrid will have to work on it being 8 points away in the next match in the next few days.

The match of Real Madrid will be only two days later, but I think there is not the slightest chance of defeat, because their opponent in last place in the table, despite all the theories that everyone can win, I think the outcome of the match here is too obvious. Elche has a goal difference of -25, which is too much and makes it clear that they have a very weak defense

[AakZaki]

Congratulations Madrid you guys are club World Cup champions.  At least Anceloti already has one trophy for the season. They still have 3 chances of winning. Copa Del Rey Cup, La Liga and UCL. But it seems that they encountered a tough opponent in this game. In the Real Madrid competition, it is also difficult because of 2 defeats that make them lose points and make the points difference with Barcelona even bigger, 8 points. Hope Madrid continue to win to at least win one more trophy this season.

Luckily Barcelona was able to secure its position to stay ahead with one goal, because so far the efforts made by Villarreal have also been very hard to try to balance the score, but until the match was over Barcelona managed to maintain its position and remain victorious in this match. The point gap between the first and second positions is 11 points and it will be difficult to catch up, so it can be seen that for the time being Barcelona's position at the top of the standings is still safe.

a narrow but very meaningful victory for Barcelona in maintaining their winning streak in Laliga. An additional 3 points made Barcelona comfortable again at the top of the standings. Xavi was very happy with the game of his team because they were able to play aggressively from the start so that they were able to make it difficult for the hosts to secure their defense so that Pedri was able to score a goal for Barcelona's advantage.

for the time being barcelona is 11 points ahead of real madrid so that makes barcelona quite safe for the time being. Barcelona in the next match will face Manchester United in the Europa League. I hope Lewandowksi can find his best form again in that match by scoring a goal.

[Ulven]

Barcelona couldn't play as they wanted against Villarreal in fact. They didn't have a huge dominance by ball possession or goal attempts. But this was still not a hindrance for them to get the 1-0 win there.

The organization before the goal was really lovely. Despite Villarreal's solid defense they somehow managed to create a great pass traffic in a tight area and Pedri just needed to finish it after. Villarreal got very close to scoring the equalizer in the last moments of the first half. Morales found a huge chance after a mistake by a Barcelona defender but he wasted the absolute goal chance very generously. Later on Raphinha also found some chances to score but he couldn't benefit from them.

I think Barcelona got the 3 points with difficulty against Villarreal. If Xavi really wants to win the title, he must make a great effort and evaluate his tactics well for the next rounds.

At the other end of the table, Real Sociedad have been in fine form of late, but were held to a goalless draw at home to Real Betis last time out. Manager Imanol Alguacil was left frustrated by his side’s inability to find the back of the net, but will be hoping that the return of star striker Willian Jose can help them to a much-needed victory in this crucial clash.

Barcelona's game in that match was quite bad. The finishing was very bad, there were lots of opportunities that should have been goals but they didn't happen because many were selfish, even though when they woke up the attack was really good especially after hitting 1 goal, Barca's game was quite messy, and panicked. Very often hit counter attack. Luckily Villarreal's finishing was very bad, if Barcelona had not conceded a lot. Hopefully in the future Barcelona will be even better.

With this victory, Barcelona won their sixth successive victory after a narrow win over Villarreal at El Madrigal. This will be a motivation in itself to remain consistent in every game so that you can win Laliga this season.

Their second half was very bad, they only created 3 goal attempts and they lost the ball possession, but the most important thing is that they got the 3 points and extended the gap to 11 points, i think Barcelona is doing really great in la Liga this year and no one can stop them from getting the title in my opinion

[Distraction]

There is going to be a eight-point gap anyway between Barcelona and Real Madrid even if Real Madrid win their match against Elche in two days.

Barcelona are still maintaining their unstoppable form. The Villarreal match might have been time for Barcelona to be stopped finally. Actually Villarreal could have done it because Barcelona were struggling about playing their usual game against them. There was a quite balance in the match most of the time. But the mental condition of Barcelona players was so strong that they still managed to win by 1-0 anyway. There is a strong chemistry now after all these victories and I really don't know if any team other than Real Madrid can stop them.

Still, so far they have won 3 points and this is enough to make me angry because indeed as a Madrid supporter I hope they have bad results but indeed Pedri has again become the difference in this match and this is the third time Pedri has saved Barcelona from 1 point. I clearly didn't expect this because in fact with conditions like this now Madrid is clearly getting more difficult.

[wmaurik]

The only game today is espanyol vs real sociedad, sociedad position will not change even if they lose today but they need the points to put some distance from atletico, espanyol on the otherhand will get away from the relegation zone if they win and it will put them on comfortable situation its a tough game for both teams.

Now the second half of their match resumes with the lead having just increased to two goals for Real Sociedad, but I don't know if Espanyol will be able to equalize or get more goals against Sociedad in the second half, because in terms of the percentage of possession I look at mostly held by Real Sociedad even though this match took place at home to Espanyol. It would be very painful for Espanyol if in this match they were not able to win or at least be able to equalize their position.

Madrid obviously have to make this a win for them, regardless of what their current condition is not very good and if they can't get points back then it will be very regrettable.
Barcelona's condition has started to move away and their opponents are not too heavy, I think, so there is indeed great hope in this match to get 3 points and keep the margin with Barcelona.

They were series of attempt made by espanol in the first half,  they struggle was ferrocious cuz they both need the point to attend a stable state but at this moment ,Real Sociedad seems more stronger and is favorable to win the match. Already they have registered 3 goals in less than 64 minutes with dominance in all measures of the game without conceding a single goal and that's a good way of showing winning potential

If we look at the performance of Real Madrid and Barcelona lately. I think 11 points is a gap that is quite difficult for Real Madrid to catch. Even though Barcelona's attack line was not very productive but their performance is fairly consistent, where they only got one loss and two draws, while the rest is a victory for them. If Barcelona remains consistent and makes as few mistakes as possible, I think this season will belong to them.

I think Real would probably win that game, but aside from that even 8 points is too much to cover. This is of course only true as long as Barcelona keeps playing the way they are playing and it's going to be difficult for them to suddenly be worse and bad, but they could lose a few players to injury and suddenly they could be bad.

Long story short, if this goes like it is, then Barcelona is the winner for sure, but Real still has a chance with UCL so they could shift focus there, be second in the league and that's still a pretty good year. When you are a top team like that, it's really difficult to keep fans happy, they won UCL and league last year, and they are already considered "bad" this year even though they are in UCL and second in the league, they can't win everything at all times, eventually they will lose.

I'm also happy to see Sevilla returning to a better performance than before, yes this is real Sevilla, we know they are one of strongest club in La Liga. Now Sevilla is successfully in the middle of the table, and I believe they will not return to the relegation zone, it seems that with this victory Sevilla will be able to welcome PSV very well in the Europa league next week.

Yeah, I am sure that many people feel like this moreover after it seems like no hope for Sevilla before this current condition. But now, I am sure also that their club will be more motivated again to do their best and get more stories later although it may be quite difficult again because they will face Rayo Vallecano..

The only game today is espanyol vs real sociedad, sociedad position will not change even if they lose today but they need the points to put some distance from atletico, espanyol on the otherhand will get away from the relegation zone if they win and it will put them on comfortable situation its a tough game for both teams.

Real Sociedad has won with a score of 1 - 3, especially with OG from Cabrebra, Real Sociedad's position is increasingly leading in this match. And if you look at the amount of time remaining, there is a possibility that Real Sociedad will win until the end of the match, especially if they strengthen their defense.

Barça were lucky in the winning over Villarreal, it was one of the tough game to watched in laliga. Both teams performance was spectacular and the players put their strength in the game. But unfortunately, Villarreal were unable to levelled the game but barça have a slight victory in the match. The bluagrana coach, Xavi Hernandez have brought good qualities from his young players, making them to play like professional in top games. However real madrid still have chance to contest for the title this season.

RC Celta de Vigo VS Atletico Madrid

The stake odds for this game are 3.60 for Celta 3.20 for a draw and 2.22 for Atletico, Right now Unai Núñez has 1 game Disciplinary, and can not play for Celta Vigo, and
Agustín Marchesín has an ACL injury so he can not play for Celta Vigo, while Atletico Madrid doesn't have any injury or suspension, for this game because Atletico Madrid doesn't have any injuries of suspension for me my pick will be Atletico Madrid,

Can Atletico Madrid continue to with their game winning run? they have won three, drew one and lost one of their last five games, same as Celta Vigo, the game is not going to be easy, but I expect Atletico Madrid to win the game, Celta Vigo are thirteen in the league while Atletico Madrid are fourth. and with the statistical analysis of their previous meeting Atletico Madrid has won most of their meeting, and for Atletico Madrid to keep their hope finishing in the top four alive they need to win this game today.

And they really did it, and they won again, It was really natural for the to win, and on paper, they got great stats and performance in the game I think the accuracy for making goals is there and with their great defense that surely helps in not getting their opponent less scored or even scoreless is really something, but will they keep their winning status now that will be facing Athletic Club and Real Madrid next which I surely doubt for them, actually I am excited about it,


Here are the result for my February 12, games

Getafe CF VS Rayo Vallecano GOAL 1 - 1 - LOST

I never thought a result like a draw could be possible but surely it is well if Rayo Vallecano is having a hard day and that day is this day for sure looking at the stats and performance stats Rayo Vallecano did great in those 19 shots from Rayo Vallecano doesn't just go into the goal and pretty much Rayo Vallecano would be thankful for Mauro Arambarri because of that Own Goal he did because after that Gatafe's Enes Unal goal tieing performance, but yah Vallcano doesn't deliver any goal at all in this game,

RC Celta de Vigo VS Atletico Madrid GOAL 0 - 1 - WIN

Now Atletico Madrid did a dominant performance while Celta Vigo got more shots and shots on target they didn't have the luck to get them in, while Atletico Madrid did 1 goal even though they only got 1 goal I think the dominant part was because of their performance towards the game

[EdenHazard]

The only game today is espanyol vs real sociedad, sociedad position will not change even if they lose today but they need the points to put some distance from atletico, espanyol on the otherhand will get away from the relegation zone if they win and it will put them on comfortable situation its a tough game for both teams.

They were series of attempt made by espanol in the first half,  they struggle was ferrocious cuz they both need the point to attend a stable state but at this moment ,Real Sociedad seems more stronger and is favorable to win the match. Already they have registered 3 goals in less than 64 minutes with dominance in all measures of the game without conceding a single goal and that's a good way of showing winning potential

That was intense match!

But real sociedad were too strong this season for espanyol who struggling to survive in the la liga , despite a great fight of 2-3 loss to real sociedad ... they had pretty great response for every goals that the opponent side scored , they could have make it draw though.

IMO, everything that's happening to Barcelona right now is because they don't have any big targets other than getting the La Liga title, as we know that they don't play in the UCL, they only play in the UEL which is a lower level of competition and has no prestige. In contrast to Real Madrid who played in various prestigious competitions, the last one was that they won the club world cup. But whatever it's, in reality Barcelona are in first place in the La Liga standings and they deserve that place ATM.

Real Sociedad had to rebel after the losses in La Liga and copa del rey, they couldn't score in three consecutive matches and they scored 3 only today, Espanyol tried but couldn't compete with them, they faced them in a bad time.
