La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[LUCKMCFLY]

-snip-

Real Madrid won the Club World Cup but receiving 3 goals by Saudis was quite unexpected. The defence line including the goalkeeper didn't do their job at the opposite of the good attack line.
That match delayed their participation in La Liga to Wednesday so they will get another match Saturday then by Tuesday they will have to face Liverpool.. Quite intense schedule for Real Madrid..

Well, Real Madrid needs a lot of things and the results they have obtained are quite satisfactory, and now what they have is a great commitment, the League, where Real Madrid is doing very badly, now the UCL, this means that they no longer they can make more mistakes because otherwise they will be left out, they can no longer lose a single game in the League, and with Liverpool they have the strongest commitment now, and at this point Ancellotti has his good strategy.

The truth is that I don't think that Real Madrid has the best strategy for him only for the last minutes of the game. Real Madrid matches are characterized by solving them in the last minutes and that is something that cannot be given more.

At least that's what I think of Barcelona this season in La Liga. No matter how optimistic people are about Real Madrid, in fact Barcelona still leads the standings until week 23 with an advantage of 7 points.

Barcelona probably realized that they couldn't keep loss points after being beaten by Almeria in the previous match, and so far I'm optimistic that all the players will really hope that it is maintained. It's not easy, especially because several important Barcelona players have been injured recently, but they must continue to complement each other to maintain the possibility of the title they will win this season.

The difference of 7 points is very hard having to go through 3 matches indeed Real Madrid and 3 defeats to Barcelona, so it can't be easy because Barcelona will definitely defend as best they can until the end of the season.

The defeat with Almeria might have been really disappointing because they couldn't reply at least for a draw but it must be admitted that Barcelona suffered a defeat from that, on the other hand even if they lose it won't happen again for sure the team will always be optimistic for the next game they have to win, about important players who injuries obviously affected him but Xavi always coaches have to balance their game in the absence of several players.

I had thought something very simple, that Barcelona had completely won La Liga, but I don't know what happened to Xavi, they took him out of the Europa League, they are beginning to displace him in the League, and this is quite beneficial for him. Real Madrid, I see Real Madrid as that Wolf who is chasing his prey and is about to hunt. That's why I've always said, when Real Madrid is motivated they can do anything, and at the rate they're going they can win everything, both the League and the UCL, and Ancelotti was able to do it.

I had thought something very simple, that Barcelona had completely won La Liga, but I don't know what happened to Xavi, they took him out of the Europa League, they are beginning to displace him in the League, and this is quite beneficial for him.

Barcelona's exit from the Europa League has given them more focus on La Liga and the Copa Del Rey. But look at the situation, Barcelona is not benefited by the condition of his injured team. Dembele, Pedri, Lewandowski are all likely to miss the first leg of the Copa Del Rey and that has put Real Madrid as favourites.

But the fact is that from many analyzes, Barcelona is the favorite for La Liga this season even though it can still be beaten by a team that wants to avoid the relegation zone. Almeria seems to be reminding Barcelona that the title race is not over, so don't get too confident.

Real Madrid, I see Real Madrid as that Wolf who is chasing his prey and is about to hunt. That's why I've always said, when Real Madrid is motivated they can do anything, and at the rate they're going they can win everything, both the League and the UCL, and Ancelotti was able to do it.

Yes, Real Madrid is a wolf that will only rage when Benzema is fit. But without Benzema, they are just wildebeest (Fast runner but hard to win the run).

Their momentum is still there now, especially with Barcelona's current condition which can indeed be said to be lame because several of its players have leg problems and are currently recovering. This could be something good for them.
Their 3rd match (El Clasico) of the season in all competitions is coming again now in the Copa del Rey. It would be great for them to be able to take advantage of opportunities with Barcelona limping after losing several of its players. Even so, it will still be very interesting to watch because Barcelona can still be very strong and Madrid will definitely not let Barcelona lift the trophy again like the previous final which Barcelona won.

Even though Real Madrid has a good possibility to reduce the points gap with Barcelona in El Clasico match, however we can never guarantee victory at Camp Nou. You just need to be aware that Barcelona are very strong at home, but things can change when the team is not at their best.

Barcelona are not missing defenders, but they only have problems with midfielders and strikers. So I still consider them pretty strong on defense, but maybe a bit weak on offense.

Villarreal vs Getafe in today's game in Spanish League Villarreal played a very good game between these two teams. Getafe played a very good game at the beginning of the game but after half time the game did not play well. Getafe was leading by 1 goal in the first 9 minutes of the game. After that  Villarreal scored 1 goal in the 44th minute and drew the match. Villarreal scored another goal in the 52nd minute. The players of the two teams could not score any more goals in the entire game. As a result, Villarreal easily won the match.

Actually I was quite surprised that Villareal could win this match, if we look at Getafe in the previous three matches they were able to draw against Atletico, Vallecano, and were able to beat Valencia. So I think after they score that first goal against Villarreal then at least the game will end in a draw. But indeed Villareal certainly did not want to lose in front of the fans and tried to fight hard to turn things around. A result enough for Villareal and for Getafe I hope they will have more luck in the next games.

Vilareal deserved to win in this game because they played better and controlled the game. Villarreal had the stats in the match, they had more possession of the ball and produced more passes, more attempts and even more shots on target. Despite conceding an early goal, they were able to remain composed and kept fighting to come back into to the game and produce a win in the end.

Real Madrid is extremely confident right now and even though they know they have to win this game if they want to compete for the title, they are still doing ok since their qualification for the next round in the Champions League. The pressure is high but very doable for Real Madrid. Barcelona has more to lose since they are the one with the advantage and they just lost in the Europa League. For them the season could still turn into a nightmare.

But Barcelona at this time is very convincing for La Liga. They, strong enough to win La Liga this season. In fact, I really doubt that Real Madrid can catch up with Barcelona. That's my prediction when Real Madrid doesn't move much to add strength like Barcelona. Although Barcelona are poor in Europe they have adapted quickly for the League. Right now if guessing maybe I'm more convinced of Barcelona. The seven-point gap looks a bit but for Barcelona's current form it looks hard to chase.

It's not that they aren't taking Europa seriously; look at their team and players closely; Xavi deployed the same players in both the Laliga and the Europa League. It's just that luck isn't always on your side. Look at their performance in the Europa League against Manchester United in both the first and second legs of the match; despite everything they did, they were unable to avoid defeat. Also, look at their performance in their most recent game against Almeria; that is the team from which they can easily earn valuable points in order to maintain their lead over Real Madrid. This indicates that Madrid would have high hopes if they won their upcoming encounter in the ELclassico.

[emrecemsan]

It was a really horrible run of four weeks for Villarreal until the match against Getafe. But finally they put an end to that by a decent win. Actually Getafe's getting ahead first was worrying. Enes Unal scored a really good header there. But Villarreal made the comeback before it was too late. Getafe goalkeeper should have been able to save the shot on first goal in a better way. The second goal came due to a space in defense and it wasn't difficult to make use of the chance for Morales.

Maybe the losing series has ended for Villarreal. But still they need to do better than this for some more weeks to be able to get higher in the standings.

Real Madrid is vying for the La Liga title, but it appears that catching Barça in points will be one of the toughest challenges. With sufficient effort being put forward from both clubs, the race is become more intriguing. Both teams are outstanding in their varied gameplay perspectives, and they are fully prepared for the impending events. Barcá is not participating in any league games at all, hence the laliga trophy will be their major priority. The europa trophy or the champions league were Xavi Hernandez's top priorities, but due to poor play, his club was eliminated from both of them.

Yes, alright. If even real Madrid can win against Barcelona in the El Classico in next March 20th, this will only decrease the gaps of the points. But, the gaps are still high enough because Real Madrid several times miss chances and lost the points. Now, the difference points of the two is 7 points. This means that Real Madrid at least must have 3 victories without any loss and Barcelona must have more losses. And this will be quite difficult if Real Madrid cannot be consistent enough in La Liga as in some previous matches.

Let's say they are trying hard for the La Liga time and the first position in the table while they have all they need but on the other hand, Barcelona is winning every match except for these days when they don't have players LIke Pedri and Dembele so maybe that's the reason for Real Madrid to have an eye on Barcelona and hope this team loses points in the future so they can use the chance.

Luck is an important factor, but taken both games together I would say that Manchester United also earned their way to the next stage of the competition. In both games it was quite typical that Barcelona controlled the ball more than Manchester United, but you look at the number of attempts they are almost equal in number. United also became much more dangerous in their offensive game recently and they were able to cause problems for Barcelona. That wasn't the case in La Liga for a long period of time where Barcelona hardly conceded any goals. The own goal by Kounde in the first leg was a bit unlucky but those things can happen.
Xavi is also feeling the heat. There is a difference between coaching a team from Qatar or Barcelona.

As long as real madrid could win the game and cutting three points are good enough for madrid. Some main players were getting injured. That gives advantages to the real madrid over barcelona even though if the game will be played at barcelona's home but don't underestimated real madrid at this moment.

Barcelona are not missing defenders, but they only have problems with midfielders and strikers. So I still consider them pretty strong on defense, but maybe a bit weak on offense.

Missing dembele and pedrid have become a serious problem for barcelona. The secondary players didn't have capability to be used as replacements for those pedri and dembele. You can see the result between barcelona against almeria. After barcelona was losing against manchester united and the same thing happened when barcelona faced almeria in the continuation of la liga. You shall also aware if barcelona had very big ball possessions which was even more than 70% ball possession but barcelona has only 1 shot on target compared with almeria which is very low ball possession but it has more shots on target. That means the impact contributed by dembele and pedri were so big for the club.

Barcelona's main and only goal now will be to secure the La Liga title. Because they have already been eliminated from the European League. But Real Madrid's target is not only La Liga. They also want to continue their good performance in the Champions League. And so it will be a bit difficult to consistently perform well in both places. Since Real Madrid's first priority is the Champions League, I wouldn't be surprised if they drop points in a few La Liga games and fall further behind Barcelona. Now Barcelona is the most favorite team for the title.

Madrid already lost hope for la Liga in my opinion, not only because of the gap but also because Barcelona will have enough time to prepare for their matches since they only still have la Liga to play for, so i believe the mission will be easier for Barcelona

No, that is not the only goal. Everyone who understands how fierce the competition is between Madrid and Barcelona also knows that it is almost a disgrace for whomever will get eliminated from the Copa del Rey as well. There is so much prestige involved and a title is a title and it tastes even better when you beat your strongest opponent. La Liga is important, but the Copa is as well. The weeks of truth are about to start now.

Villareal deserved to win in that match and now Villareal has the same number of points as Rayo Vallecano. Because Rayo actually suffered defeat by Cadiz. But next week, Villarreal must fight to win against Almeria. And right now Almeria is a team that is quite difficult to predict. because even this week Almeria surprised us by beating Barcelona. then Villareal certainly has to be more prepared with their best abilities in the next match.

we can see el classico again in the next 2 days, may be a bit boring if you always follow this match, but we know there is nothing surprising for this session. Usually, if real Madrid is superior by the odds, Barcelona will win the match and even play at Madrid home. but, I am not sure about the leg 1 semifinal, draw maybe happen because madrid's performance is still consolidated between them.

[X-ray]

Madrid already lost hope for la Liga in my opinion, not only because of the gap but also because Barcelona will have enough time to prepare for their matches since they only still have la Liga to play for, so i believe the mission will be easier for Barcelona

It's not yet. Real madrid is still having a chance. Real madrid can hope that barcelona will be failing at the late game in la liga. There are around 13 matches remaining in la liga. That's worth around 39 points if real can win the rest of the matches until the end of the season. There will always be a chance for real madrid to change the situation as long as barcelona will get bad results. Real madrid was missing best opportunity to cut the gap last match but real madrid can't be maximizing such a golden opportunity.

Real madrid will be facing barcelona. Bookies were favoring real madrid over barcelona even though anfu fati has been recovering and he will be playing against real madrid.

this is very difficult to predict, if you look at the performance of the two teams so far it has not been consistent but what is certain is that when el classico matches are always fierce so I think for this match all possibilities are still possible to happen even though this match was played at home to Real Madrid but the chances still open for both teams.

Both teams were performing very well in the league because they both had consistency in their performance in their previous matches.

I think the odds of a draw are quite tempting, and I think it's worth considering, a draw is quite likely to happen considering that the two teams are currently still in the same strength.

I don't think the match will end in a draw because both the teams have the ability to win the match, especially Real Madrid because they have been in massive form these days, and as Barcelona won them in their last encounter, I think they will do everything possible to secure a win in the match.

I don't think the previous results in the Spanish Super Cup could be a measure for the meeting between Madrid and Barca in the semifinals of Coba Del Rey.
after losing in the Europa League, Barca has not improved by losing to Almeria 0-1. it will not be easy for Barcelona to face the strong team of Madrid. but whatever the semi-final, they will show their best.
