La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Razmirraz]

Espanyol must be losing some points as well as its defender too. That was giving more disadvantage for espanyol once this club will be facing the next opponent. Real sociedad is quite consistent at this moment after it was facing difficulties to win the game. Real sociedad is a promising club after real madrid and barcelona. I saw how strong real sociedad right now even compared with atletico madrid. Real sociedad has 4 points gap against the atletico madrid. Atletico madrid was slowly climbing up  again. Atletico madrid wanna try to enter into the top 3.

Surely this will make the competition in the top 4 even more fierce, here Barcelona is not included because he already has a difference of more than 10 points. Real Madrid, Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid are all three likely in the next 2 matches to shift positions to each other, but depending on if the three teams can maintain victory then their position will remain the same as now.

Barcelona is still safe at the top of the standings for at least the next few matches because the difference in points with competitors is very far. The victory that Real Sociedad just won made the gap with Atletico Madrid to four points. Meanwhile, to replace Real Madrid, it still needs a few more matches, and even then it depends on Real Madrid performance in the next match.

Now Sociedad is only 3 points away from Real Madrid, but Real Madrid still has the chance to make the distance to 6 points because they still have one game left. An exchange of positions is still very possible if one of these three clubs is unable to maintain their performance. Atletico position is also very vulnerable because Real Betis is still trying to climb into the top four.

Ruben Baraja is the new coach of Valencia. After parting ways with Gattuso, Valencia continued to lose their matches. Now Ruben Baraja has taken over the team and all hope is to stay in the league. Valencia had never had such a bad time in its history. They need to go back to their old shining days. Valencia, one of the 5 teams that come to mind in Spain, cannot be relegated to the 2nd league. I hope they recover soon. The next Getafe game is a great opportunity for them. It will be a good start to see victories again.

But Getafe at this time really can not be underestimated. because in the last 2 matches Getafe was able to hold Rayo and Atletico Madrid to a draw. Meanwhile, Valencia continues to experience defeat lately. However, with the change of coach, I also hope that Valencia can return to their better performance.

I wonder why Valencia recruited Gennaro Gattuso as a coach, because so far basically when Gennaro Gattuso coached Milan and Napoli the results weren't good either. So it's not surprising that Valencia is experiencing a very bad trend this season and is very worrying, because if Valencia cannot recover, it is likely that Valencia will be relegated.

But apart from that and for the next match against Getafe, basically at this moment they are both in the relegation zone which means they have qualities that are not much different. Therefore, Valencia must be able to take advantage of this moment to win, not caring about head to head, the most important thing is that Valencia must be able to play better than Getafe.

Getafe and Valencia still have a chance to get out of the relegation zone. in their second meeting, Valencia should have a superior game than Getafe. but because indeed both of them are also in the relegation zone and points will be very important for both of them. of course, the best game will be shown by both teams.
Momentum-wise, Getafe may have the better mentality. with their strong defensive play, they managed to hold off some strong teams. and that's a good capital before they meet with Valencia.

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.

In this match, Barcelona started well, attacking while coordinating well. Barcelona also made a few mistakes at the back, however. Some of them were well covered up. The others, however, were poorly executed by Villareal. There was every chance that this match would end in a draw. Despite that, Barcelona were able to earn 3 points from this match because of Villareal's finishing.

But I must give credit to Barcelona for the way they attack, and the link-up play between their players. Barcelona wins matches not because of individual skill, but because of good teamwork.

Current La Liga standing awhile, Barcelona seem confidence lead top standing position after remaining 11 points behind Real Madrid and still have one match left against Elche. Seems not compete with La Liga depend on current standing position and actually points gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid.

But La Liga have 17 matches left and anything could be possible between Real Madrid back to the top standing position or Barcelona keep comfortable on top standing position until La Liga season 2022/2023 finished. Lets predicting will Barcelona become the champion? after last time on season 2018/2019 become the La Liga winner.

One of the major clubs in laliga, Barça has many well-known players on their roster. The players have a strong rapport and experience. Due to the team's outstanding performance, there is no doubt that Barça will win the La Liga this year. The squad has to progress in other competitions, such as the UEFEA and Europa league, in addition to its official league, which is fantastic news for the fans. Real Madrid is one of the major title contenders, but Los Blancos haven't played consistently in the league, losing points to ordinary teams. The ultimate goal for Xavi Hernandez is to generate more points since Carlo Ancelotti, his adversary who is devising strategies to cut the gap with barça, must be avoided.

[Z-tight]

Regarding the idea that Barcelona is a key title objective, I believe it is essential to acknowledge that winning La Liga alone may not be deemed a success at the end of the season. Adding one or two titles would make Xavi Hernandez's squad's record impressive.

Winning the La Liga alone would be a total success for Barcelona, the club was having a bad moment before they hired Xavi, and for him to come into the team and win the La Liga after 1 year as coach is a very big success. They would not even mind not winning the Europa league, it is not the title they want. But if they can win the La Liga and Europa league, or even the Copa del rey, then it will increase the success of the team this season, but just the La Liga alone would be great for them.

The points gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid is now 11. If Madrid manage to win their next match, their points gap will be 8. A gap of 8 points in La Liga doesn't seem too big. Because both Barcelona and Real Madrid have a record of dropping points against weaker teams this season. And so Barcelona may not perform as consistently. If Barcelona drop points in a few matches, Madrid will have the chance to win the title. But if Barcelona's players are so confident and keep scoring points in every match, then it is not possible for Madrid to win the title.

I am convinced that Barcelona will win this year
Real Madrid seems very tired to me
Benzema is out of shape (he's his age) and can't get the hang of it, unlike Lewandowski who scores a lot of goals and assists.
I've seen them play, they're really on two different levels (athletically speaking)

[fzkto]

Real Sociedad managed to beat the host Espanyol in the match with a score of 2-3 and at the same time maintain their position in the standings. Statistically, Sociedad was far superior and towards the end of the match Espanyol almost equalized. In extra time, Espanyol's Leandro Cabrera received a second yellow card and had to leave the game in stoppage time, a result that was not very good for Espanyol because they had to lose one of their defenders.

Espanyol must be losing some points as well as its defender too. That was giving more disadvantage for espanyol once this club will be facing the next opponent. Real sociedad is quite consistent at this moment after it was facing difficulties to win the game. Real sociedad is a promising club after real madrid and barcelona. I saw how strong real sociedad right now even compared with atletico madrid. Real sociedad has 4 points gap against the atletico madrid. Atletico madrid was slowly climbing up  again. Atletico madrid wanna try to enter into the top 3.

Real Sociedad do indeed have more points than Atletico Madrid at the moment. Somehow it suddenly happened that they ended up in third place, although Atletico Madrid have not started to play badly now. Of their last matches, they have only lost to Real Madrid and Barcelona. The rest of the games they haven't played badly. We can say that Real Sociedad and Atletico play about the same.

Benzema is out of shape (he's his age) and can't get the hang of it, unlike Lewandowski who scores a lot of goals and assists.
I've seen them play, they're really on two different levels (athletically speaking)

First of all, I would say that both Barcelona players and coaches are very confident to win the title this season. Barcelona's young players are playing brilliantly. With the help of Xavi, they are gradually gaining experience and performing well. Day by day the overall performance of the Barcelona team is improving. So their chances of winning the title are high. Secondly, Real Madrid's squad is not in good overall shape. Benzema is the most important player in their squad. And he has missed several matches due to fitness issues this season. Can't play well. So the Real Madrid team has fallen behind.

[Distraction]

Benzema is playing without being under big pressure now I think. Because he had an incredibly good season in the previous one as you know and won even the Ballon d'Or.

He is still not doing bad of course. Despite a long injury period he is still only 5 goals behind the top scorer who is Lewandowski now. Benzema is still willing to make his best contribution to the team now. Real Madrid just don't need to rely on him the most now. I mean there won't be big problems as long as they don't focus on Benzema mostly. This would help them become more creative. They have another great attacker like Vinicius Junior for example. When he plays a big role in the development of attacks the team get closer to scoring goals.

[RealMalatesta]

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.

Real Sociedad In last night's game against Espanyol they managed to get a win and excel with a score of 2 goals for Espanyol and 3 goals for Real Sociedad. With this match we already know that Real Sociedad have tried hard to try to get a win and the results of their hard work made Real Sociedad managed to stay in the top three at the top of the standings, the point difference from Real Madrid is only 3 points. I believe Real Sociedad still has a chance to take second place. Real Sociedad needs to keep playing well.

I thought the match would be completely one-sided. Since the Real Sociedad team is much stronger than Espanyol. But the match was not one-sided. Both teams played very well. And in the last 25-30 minutes we saw some excellent attacks from the Espanyol players. Real Sociedad is very lucky to be able to get full points in this match. However, Espanyol's match strategy and overall gameplay are excellent and I think this team can maintain a safe distance from the relegation zone. Now Espanyol is 17th in the points table.

I mean, it sort of was? They played dominant for 60 minutes, and got 3-0 ahead, that was a very very dominant hour from them and they got basically the whole win right there, was a very little chance they would lose. Because of this, they started to not be dominant anymore, they started to underestimate the opponent, and Espanyol wasn't just giving up, if it was 3-0 and both teams just played for time then Sociedad would have been right to "give up" but because other team still played, Sociedad got into a trouble and almost lost.

I still think that they were much better, not even close at all, it was just a misjudgement that caused the last 30 minutes to be a bit more trouble but still got the three points.

Anything related to toping the goal scoring chart in La Liga, there will be no other person amd player winning that but Lewandoski.
Benzema is not as good as he did last season, not consistent and still fighting with Injuries,can we focus on this season alone what was done before can only be remembered but isn't present. He should step up his game and help Real Madrid fight for the league.
Vinicius is a fine wide attacking player, he is good at what he does but he has no much support since Benzema has Injured for long

[visionE2]

Once again Real Sociedad showed that they have improved a lot and are ready to provide tough competition in the top 4 of the standings. Previously, Real Sociedad was a club that could always compete in the European zone, but they could only compete under the top 4. But this season they have changed a lot and as we can see now they can compete in the Champions League zone.

Real Sociedad last entered the UCL in the 2013/14 season when it was still reinforced by Antonie Griezmann. This year, hopefully, we will return to the UCL again, provided that Real Sociedad remain consistent until the end of the season. In the Spanish league there is Real Sociedad which is trying to make history in the top 4 of the Spanish league standings. in the English league there is Newcastle United which is also in the top 4 of the English league standings which may also be trying to make history.

Lewandowski is the frontrunner to become the top scorer for this season because he has scored 14 goals so far. Only Joselu is the closest to catching up with Lewandowski goal collection, but bad luck befell Joselu where he suffered an injury in the previous game which made him have to miss several matches in the future.

Karim Benzema has missed a lot of matches this season because at the start of the season he suffered an injury so this slightly interfered with his performance on the field. But Karim has so far scored 9 for Real Madrid and a difference of 5 goals from Lewandowski goal collection.

[Prince Malik]

Espanyol team didn't profit from Valencia defeat to escape the relegation zone and unfortunately they lost against sociedad 3 goals to one, they will play against the last elche in the next round and they should absolutely get the 3 points in this match otherwise they may enter the relegation zone

[Smack That Ace]

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.

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.

I think it's just a coincidence, the increase in form that Barcelona experienced coincided after they had been knocked out of the Champions League. Barcelona still has another target after winning the Spanish Super Cup. Apart from wanting to secure the La Liga trophy, Barcelona is also still active in the CDR and UEL.
The level of UEL is indeed lower than UCL, but the atmosphere at UEL this season is like at UCL because there are several big teams there. It cannot be used as an excuse for the performance they have shown in La Liga while absent in the UCL, previously Barcelona won six titles at once in one season, one of which was the UCL title.

I agree that Barcelona's improved performance since being eliminated from the Champions League is not a mere coincidence. Barcelona, like every other team, strives to win every title it competes for. As an ambitious club, Barcelona will seek to win the La Liga championship as well as the Copa del Rey and Europa League. It's true that the level of competition in the UEL is lesser than in the UCL, but with several top teams competing, the UEL this season has a similar vibe to the UCL. I do not believe this can be used as an excuse for their past performance in La Liga during their absence from the UCL. The club has previously demonstrated the capacity to win multiple titles in a single season, including the UCL crown.
Regarding the idea that Barcelona is a key title objective, I believe it is essential to acknowledge that winning La Liga alone may not be deemed a success at the end of the season. Adding one or two titles would make Xavi Hernandez's squad's record impressive. Thursday night's game versus Manchester United will be thrilling and will determine whether Barcelona can win the Europa Champions League.

There was no doubt that it was not an easy match for Barcelona. Nevertheless, I think Barcelona will win this match. To stay ahead of Real Madrid, Barcelona had to win. There are 11 points between Barcelona and Real Madrid at the moment. The number of matches played by Barcelona is 1 more than Real Madrid's. As Distraction said, At the same time, even if Real Madrid does win, Barcelona will still lead by 8 points, that's a big deal, isn't it? For Barcelona, things are looking positive. My only hope is that they will be consistent in their approach.

Barcelona played well against Villarreal in this match. During this match, Barcelona had a few questionable moments. However, I think Barcelona deserved to win.

To be honest, as a Barcelona fan I was really disappointed when they played their games at the start of the season. plus, a lousy game in the Champions League. I can understand that, because after all Xavi has just rebuilt Barcelona's strength. it will be very difficult, if you hope that Barcelona will immediately transition into a very tough team. evidently, Barcelona was eliminated from the Champions League. also, the wins that Barcelona achieved at the start of the season, mostly from luck. I mean, they played badly but were lucky to get full points.

Well, after the post-world cup. something has changed from Barcelona's playing pattern. in particular, when they had an El Clasico match in the Supercopa de Espana event. my point, Gavi is calmer playing, it seems he is starting to mature in terms of the game, Dembele is also getting more mature, and the most vital thing in my opinion is the role of the two Pivots. since De Jong was paired with Busquest. the system that Barcelona is running looks more structured, combinations and transitions between players are starting to show their rhythm. I'm quite happy to see the rhythm of Barcelona's game this time, it's only natural that they are predicted to win the La Liga, Copa Del Rey and Europa League trophies. but it seems, Barcelona must work hard to realize their mission.

No need to be surprised, because after the world cup they experienced a change in the quality of players. They bought a lot of players which was very beyond everyone's predictions. Before the world cup although they already had some new players, they were in a period of adaptation and indeed they had not yet formed for the UCL. But if they then fail at UEFA then indeed they have not been able to play better in europe. Maybe they are good in La Liga but they have to work hard again and maybe next season they can prove that.

He is still not doing bad of course. Despite a long injury period he is still only 5 goals behind the top scorer who is Lewandowski now.

When he plays a big role in the development of attacks the team get closer to scoring goals.

Actually, Benzema enjoyed last season which was the finest for him. Even seeing him play now is still quite interesting, in fact, Benzema is currently playing without pressure. I remember seeing posters of him as being unstoppable and recall how Chelsea was unable to stop him. I recall seeing posters of Benzema playing with his free will and last season which is one of the most intriguing things that the big bez have ever done in history, even without winning he has mad history already.

[kawetsriyanto]

Lewandowski is the frontrunner to become the top scorer for this season because he has scored 14 goals so far. Only Joselu is the closest to catching up with Lewandowski goal collection, but bad luck befell Joselu where he suffered an injury in the previous game which made him have to miss several matches in the future.

Karim Benzema has missed a lot of matches this season because at the start of the season he suffered an injury so this slightly interfered with his performance on the field. But Karim has so far scored 9 for Real Madrid and a difference of 5 goals from Lewandowski goal collection.

IMO, Lewandowski will be the top scorer for sure. Joselu seems to have no chance to overtake Lewandowski. As long as Lewandowski can continue playing until the end of the season, he will always score more for Barcelona. He is a machine goal for Barcelona, no doubt he will get many goals.

Yep, Benzema often gets injured, so he only has a small chance to make many goals. It is very different with Lewandowski who is always ready to play in every match. So, Lewandowski has a big chance to score as many as possible. So far, Benzema only played in 12 matches of La Liga but he successfully scored 9 goals. While Lewandowski already played in 18 matches of La Liga, he scored 14 goals.
