La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[S A KHAIR]

Barcelona will not give out their opportunity of becoming the La Liga champions once again.
If they would want to do it is not at this time that they are already close to Success.
The major factor that can make Barcelona to lose the title race to Real Madrid is injury.
But looking at the current squad of Barcelona, you will understand that almost all the players are available.

Barcelona players are not available. Most of their best players are out injured. They are without Lewandoski, Dembele, Pedri, Christensen and Gavi for the match against Valencia tomorrow due to a suspension. They are just seven points ahead of Madrid at the moment and a loss to Valencia will reduce that to four points if Madrid wins against Betis. Now here is the tricky part, Barca will play Bilboa next and we all know how much of a pain in the ass Bilboa can be to Barcelona. After Bilboa they will play Real Madrid. So if Barcelona don't handle the next three matches they have very well they could find themselves just one point ahead of Madrid or worst, below Madrid. They can only hope for Madrid to keep been inconsistent in the league.

I think the Barcelona team will be able to put up a solid performance even though several Barcelona players are out of the squad. Because Barcelona is not relying on any specific player now. In the last match, we saw they won against Real Madrid. And against Madrid, they were able to win only because of their brilliant match strategy. It will not be easy for Barcelona to win the next match against the Valencia team. But my guess is Barcelona will win or the match will be a draw. I don't think Barcelona will lose.

Barcelona just play in the best way that can lead them to victory. I think Barcelona already understand Real Madrid very well and the of playing that will be easy for them to defeat Real Madrid. So surprising that in as much Real Madrid played well and more impressive than Barcelona they still could not win the game. The defensive patter Barcelona used in the game was the reason of victory for them.

Almost all of real madrid's tactics can be read easily by xavi. It can from the decision already taken by xavi to give advice to its club for doing full defense against real madrid. i am aware how frustated real Madrid's players were when it was losing 1 goal due to its own goal. The second leg gonna be an even more difficult match for madrid. Ancellotti needs to think about another tactic and stop to use the same tactic against barcelona. Madrid will be losing in the second leg if ancellotti keeps using the same strategy against barcelona. Putting all of players to be fully in defensive mode was making madrid just like faced the big wall.

Barcelona team managed to defeat Real Madrid by performing brilliantly. Real Madrid created some great chances at home. But Barcelona's defense put in a superb performance to fend off those chances.

[makishart]

Just after the game finished many Real Madrid fans started attacking Barcelona because of their playing style they said Barcelona was defending during the game all the time and they didn't deserve victory at all because Real Madrid was controlling the game more than Barcelona and unlike other El Clasico we usually saw real Madrid had more successful passes comparing to Barcelona while the most important thing is the result this game is which Barcelona could bear Real Madrid even without players like Lewandowski and Perdi.

It should not be a big problem caused by we have seen how long the rivalry between madrid and barcelona have been going on. The same thing gonna happen once barcelona lose against real madrid and then its fans will be mocking barcelona as well.
This is normal in football once fans from madrid was mocking barcelona due to its play style is pretty much the same like parking bus strategy that used by some clubs in the past.

To be honest, if it's really entertaining to see that how the fans between real madrid and barcelona are mocking each other. 
This is a common thing in the football.

I don't think it was Ancelotti's tactical fault on the contrary, Real Madrid were able to control the ballposition more and play much better but they were just unlucky in the first leg of the Copa Del Rey against Barcelona.
and for the second leg later I think these two teams still have the same chance to beat each other, in fact I think the percentage of these two teams is still 50-50.

and it is true that since Xavi has coached Barcelona there have been very many positive changes that have occurred and especially in this season which has made Barcelona at the top of the La Liga standings temporarily.

Real Madrid didn't have a lot of solutions to the strong defense of Barcelona. And this is what Barcelona is counting on. They took the first difficult hurdle by collecting the three points and scoring a goal in Madrid. That is more than they expected. I am sure they would have been ok with a draw and then try to win it at home.

Now the situation is quite different and I think it is not a 50-50 game anymore. It is more like 58-42, probably not quite 60-40. Also, some of the players that were now missing in Madrid will return until the second leg if everything goes according to plan. That is Lewandowski, Pedri, but also Dembele as far as I know. That is a whole different story for their offensive game and another threat that Real Madrid has to take care of during the game while they need to try and play offensive themselves.

[tbct_mt2]

I don't think it was Ancelotti's tactical fault on the contrary, Real Madrid were able to control the ballposition more and play much better but they were just unlucky in the first leg of the Copa Del Rey against Barcelona.

Real Madrid did have not too bad match and they created some opportunities to get goals but unluckily they did not score any goal. They have good enough performance to give them belief that they can beat Barcelona in a second leg and win in aggregated result.

About confidence, I don't think I can find any club that have very solid confidence about themselves like Real Madrid in a long history as well as in the past two seasons. All challenges they passed through to win Champions League in the past season prove a lot about their confidence and ability to beat biggest opponents.

and for the second leg later I think these two teams still have the same chance to beat each other, in fact I think the percentage of these two teams is still 50-50.

With Real Madrid, until the final whistle, don't say you are winners against them.

and it is true that since Xavi has coached Barcelona there have been very many positive changes that have occurred and especially in this season which has made Barcelona at the top of the La Liga standings temporarily.

Xavi has been doing his great job and has brought big improvements to Barcelona but he has to go too far to achieve what Carlo Ancelotti has gotten in his career. Winning La Liga and Coppa del Rey in a same season will be a milestone season for Xavi management career.

[BRINIRHA]

I feel like it is really difficult to see Real Madrid gaining with Barcelona too much to take the lead from them and win the league title.

Because Barcelona are still able to keep the gap between them quite balanced. I don't think they would maintain a very bad form in the league while their main focus is on there already. After a break of a few years in the league Barcelona finally have a big chance to become the champions. They wouldn't gave it away easily. Their simple mistakes are happening less often than Real Madrid during the season.

Barcelona will not give out their opportunity of becoming the La Liga champions once again.
If they would want to do it is not at this time that they are already close to Success.

But looking at the current squad of Barcelona, you will understand that almost all the players are available.

This will rather make it difficult for Real Madrid to penetrate.
Real Madrid should simply taking the Champions League and forget about the La Liga which Xavi has worked for

And this season the opportunity for Barcelona to win the title is very wide open. because the focus of Real Madrid is being diverted by the match in the champions league. because it seems true that Real Madrid is currently more focused on success in the Champions League. and while Barcelona is currently only focused on winning the title in Laliga. Tomorrow Barcelona will play against Valencia. and I'm sure Barcelona will get full points back from this fight. and will further strengthen their position at the top of the standings.

[Masplanc]

I hope the fight continues

It was very interesting to watch this two big team of Laliga and they played very well, but it was a surprise Barcelona was able to win the against Real Madrid which are thought Real Madrid  will win because they still possess better strength than Barcelona.

Well, about the availability of players, Docnaster said that almost all the players are available, but look at the last Clásico, when top players, Lewandowski included, weren't available. It seems that their absence wasn't decisive, though, as they still managed to win the match.

About La Liga, FC Barcelona won't let Real Madrid win. At this point, they risk to concede not only this championship but the Club World Cup + Copa del Rey + (worse) Champions League. Fortunately, Barça already won the Supercopa, so it is impossible for Real Madrid to win all championships.

I don't think winning the La Liga title this season will be easy for Barcelona. Real Madrid's main goal is of course the Champions League title. But Ancelotti will certainly want to continue his good performances in La Liga. And Ancelotti is a very experienced coach. He knows very well how to keep the team's performance stable. Ancelotti will continue his pursuit of both the La Liga and Champions League titles unless any key Madrid player is out of the squad due to injury.

Barcelona is only 7 points ahead of Madrid. And in the last match also the Barcelona team lost against a team like Almeria. Losing points against weaker teams will make it difficult for Barcelona to win the title. Xavi should be more aware.

They are just seven points ahead of Madrid at the moment and a loss to Valencia will reduce that to four points if Madrid wins against Betis. Now here is the tricky part, Barca will play Bilboa next and we all know how much of a pain in the ass Bilboa can be to Barcelona. After Bilboa they will play Real Madrid. So if Barcelona don't handle the next three matches they have very well they could find themselves just one point ahead of Madrid or worst, below Madrid. They can only hope for Madrid to keep been inconsistent in the league.

If we refer to the predicted line-up that Xavi will apply in the match against Valencia. it looks like Christensen can be played in the match later, but his status is still doubtful. referring to the predictions I read, Xavi will apply a 4-4-2 formation, pairing Ferran Torres and Ansu Fati up front. for midfield there are some changes, Pablo Torre and Sergi Roberto will also be played, De Jong and Busquet remain Xavi's mainstay. in defense, Xavi has many options. IMO with the absence of several of Barcelona's core players, this match is an opportunity for Ferran and Ansu Fati to show what they are capable of. but anyway, this is just a prediction.

On the other hand, Valencia is in a situation that is not okay. as we know, Valencia is in the relegation zone by being ranked 18th in the standings. plus, several Valencia players were also injured. so, this match will not be easy for Valencia even though Barcelona will not be strengthened by some of their core players. I remain optimistic, Barcelona will topple Valencia in the match later and continue to keep their distance from their rival Real Madrid.

I was surprised when I saw the result of the match between Real Sociedad vs Cadiz, I didn't expect that Cadiz would manage to hold Real Sociedad to a draw at their home ground. Real Sociedad dominated the game, but none of their attempts to penetrate the Cadiz defense led to a goal. With this result, it is likely that their position in the standings will be shifted by Atletico Madrid, who only have a difference of 2 points now.

We can't deny that even though Real Sociedad really dominated, they couldn't do much to score goals. On the other hand, the defense from Cadiz was also very good in this match, there were a total of 4 shots on target from Real Sociedad which were thwarted by goalkeeper Jeremias Ledesma. With a result like this, Real Sociedad's position will be threatened this week if Atletico Madrid can beat Sevilla.

[YuginKadoya]

Crazy match and strange to see barcelona to play like a bunch of cowards ... having 1 goal and pretty often delayed the game with xavi strange tiki-taka , just funny to witnessed it , the very unusual display from xavi .. very much like mourinho playing style in this game.

There is second leg ahead for real madrid to make a comeback though.

I was in utter disbelief in seeing it aswell I don't really know if the Lack of Lewandowski on the team has made them vulnerable or they surely know how Real Madrid can turn the table around that is why they have played safe and focus more on defense, but if it wasn't for the own goal of Real Madrid's Eder Militao for Barcelona to lead and then Barcelona is just not their usual self if it's not with the Own goal the game could end up in a draw,

In tonight's match, Real Sociedad is likely to get a win, even if only by a very narrow score. I'm sure they will try to win against Cadiz, because so far, Cadiz have only won in a few matches, and they are the only team that is in the top 14 from the top of the standings, so supposedly Real Sociedad will be superior and easier to win.

Sociedad gets draw against cadiz which is a shame for a club that has been dominating the match with 73% ball possessions. The fact is that ball possessions meant nothing these days and i have learned how efficient the attack will be playing bigger in determining how many goals that will be able to be made. Sociedad has been trying so hard and it has been making so many shots but only two shots were on target.

real sociedad failed to steal fuill points from weak team as it's making so many inefficient attack against cadiz which is always doing defense. What a very bad result for sociedad. Im really disappointed with the result.

I surely bet for Real Sociedad but failed miserably it is really hard to say for sure if a team would really win even though they are in the highest standing than their opponent the match still ends up in a draw, as we can see Real Sociedad has the highest game stats than Cadiz from Shot, Possession, passes, and you can clearly see their movement if you have watch the game it was clear that Sociedad can win this but again this means nothing if a team can not make a goal,


As I am posting this Getafe VS Girona match is on its way and upon the game started Getafe got their 1st goal so fast and then upon further minutes their 2nd goal my bet is now safe in my understanding but lets wait,

[LUCKMCFLY]

After having a very comfortable game against Elche, Real Madrid are going to play against Osasuna away this time.

I expect this game to be more challenging. But on paper Real Madrid are very highly favourite side of course. When we look at their match history in Osasuna's stadium we can see that Real Madrid destroyed them most of the time. It has been more than ten years since Osasuna beat them there the last time. In addition to that Osasuna are having bad weeks recently. While Real Madrid are in good shape I think they will continue with another win. I just wonder whether Ancelotti will rotate the squad. Because there is a Liverpool game closing in.

It's not that Real Madrid is doing very well in the League, they have let Barcelona take a lot of advantage, I don't know if they allowed themselves to take that advantage out of confidence or because Ancelotti's strategy was not correct because they didn't give the results, In the same way they have a very hard job, I doubt very much that they can catch up with Barcelona, this time like the League got out of hand, the only hope they have is to win the UCL. and they can do it, they have the material, also if Ancelotti wins the UCL I think he would be saving his position at Real Madrid.

Barcelona will not give out their opportunity of becoming the La Liga champions once again.

They can only hope for Madrid to keep been inconsistent in the league.

Well, the truth is that the difference in points between Real Madrid and Barcelona has been cut a lot, we have to wait and see how Barcelona continues to play without its best players, that's where the best players and the best teams are when they don't it has its main stars, there you can see the results of the whole team, Barcelona has not done badly, they beat Madrid in the Copa del Rey showing very nice fútbol, they have an advantage in the League, the bad thing is that they are not in the Europa League, and if Real Madrid starts to play like before, to recover their good fútbol, I think they will be able to shorten the gap, it is the only chance they have.

[Doell]

Getafe vs Girona this match is very interesting, currently the home team is really a lead with a score of 3-2. I was surprised to see their can scored of 3 at halftime it was a really good record for them against Girona, which are currently 11th in table. 15 minutes left this game is finished, Getafe must be able to maintain this score if they want to get three points.

And this season the opportunity for Barcelona to win the title is very wide open. because the focus of Real Madrid is being diverted by the match in the champions league. because it seems true that Real Madrid is currently more focused on success in the Champions League. and while Barcelona is currently only focused on winning the title in Laliga. Tomorrow Barcelona will play against Valencia. and I'm sure Barcelona will get full points back from this fight. and will further strengthen their position at the top of the standings.

I don't think winning the La Liga title this season will be easy for Barcelona. Real Madrid's main goal is of course the Champions League title. But Ancelotti will certainly want to continue his good performances in La Liga. And Ancelotti is a very experienced coach. He knows very well how to keep the team's performance stable. Ancelotti will continue his pursuit of both the La Liga and Champions League titles unless any key Madrid player is out of the squad due to injury.

Barcelona is only 7 points ahead of Madrid. And in the last match also the Barcelona team lost against a team like Almeria. Losing points against weaker teams will make it difficult for Barcelona to win the title. Xavi should be more aware.

It is almost never easy to win the La Liga trophy, but for now it doesn't look bad but that can change quickly if they lose against Real Madrid in La Liga and also have one more accident like against Almeria, Real Madrid could be right behind them. 8 points look comfortable for now, but there are too many games to be played and it is not the time yet to say that the season is over. Now they have all the injured players as well and Real Madrid knows about it.

But Real Madrid isn't in the shape right now that they would start a streak of five or six wins in a row. They have their performance breaks so to say and Barcelona understands to use them in their favor. That is why there is still this huge difference in points between them.

Many call Real Madrid a real Champions League team now and given how often they have won it in the last years there is of course some truth to it. Still I am sure that the club and the fans expect Real Madrid to not be that far behind in La Liga, especially not when the club in front of them is called Barcelona.

The rivalry will live on forever, but they will have enough chances even this season to compete against each other. The La Liga title is probably gone for Real Madrid, but there is still the Copa del Rey title.

Getafe vs Girona this match is very interesting, currently the home team is really a lead with a score of 3-2. I was surprised to see their can scored of 3 at halftime it was a really good record for them against Girona, which are currently 11th in table. 15 minutes left this game is finished, Getafe must be able to maintain this score if they want to get three points.

Let's say Getafe started the game much better than Girona because they could use the first chance they got in game and they scored the first goal first two minutes of the game while Girona tried to get control over the game and but they failed and especially if the first half when Getafe could even score the second goal from a penalty kick, Girona could finally score one goal in the second half which was not enough to make Getafe stop and they could beat Girona with a 2-1 result in this game.

Actually, Real Madrid is not performing very well in La Liga. But so far, the team has great potential, as Real Madrid is ahead of the rest of the teams in La Liga.
