La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[giammangiato]

The point is Xavi is working in Barcelona where he knows the teams and the structure very well, he is famous in his team because he was playing there just a few years ago so he can understand the feeling of players and understand them whenever they are playing against strong teams like Real Madrid, that's how he won the last El Classico against Ancelotti.

Today we don't agree, you and I
Xavi played well but he also owes his position to factors that do not depend on him,
a) many players in the World Cup for Real Madrid
b) Real Madrid play the cup
c) the players are tired (from Real) they have decided to commit themselves only to the Champions League (because of the money)

Barcelona managed to widen the gap with Real Madrid after picking up full points in their second meeting in La Liga this season, Barcelona is increasingly secure at the top of the standings after winning 12 points from Real Madrid who sit in second place.

After successfully beating Real Madrid, Barcelona chances of embracing the La Liga title are getting bigger. Barcelona only needs 25 more points to become champions, this amount is not difficult for Barcelona to collect because of its very consistent performances. Barcelona also no longer competes in European competition, now the focus is only on La Liga. Real Madrid had to give up the La Liga trophy for Barcelona, the defeat in El Clasico made their chances even smaller.

[Jody.Drummer]

If barcelona is consistent with their wins in the few games remaining until the end of the season, of course it will bring barcelona to win the league title this season, Xavi has provided evidence that barcelona can rise from adversity and it may take time to get it back to its former glory. 

The La Liga title this season is in sight for Barcelona because eternal rival Real Madrid is already 12 points behind Barcelona. That is a distance that will be very difficult for Real Madrid to pursue as long as Barcelona is consistent in getting wins in the remaining matches this season, because Real Madrid needs to see Barcelona lose five times and he must be able to win five times in order to shift Barcelona at the top of the standings.

Barcelona must have lost 4 times at least to be chased by Real Madrid, even then Real Madrid must always be consistent with their wins. And looking at this season I think it will be difficult for Barcelona to lose 4 matches, and on the other hand Real Madrid will find it difficult to always win. They are in two focuses now, and their priority is in the Champions League considering that in La Liga they have a long distance in points. Barcelona itself will not waste the opportunity to win the title this season, it would be ridiculous if they had to lose the title with the difference in points they have now.



This week there will be an interesting match between Atletico Madrid vs Real Betis. They are now confined to only one position, and seeing Real Betis play they are not bad. The fight for the top 4 positions in the standings will be another interesting fight. If Real Betis can steal full points when they travel to Atletico Madrid headquarters, then their points will narrow to just 3 points. Also in 3rd position (Real Sociedad) will get an opponent that is not easy, because they will face Villarreal who can beat them this week.

[BRINIRHA]

Indeed, at this time Celta Vigo is a team to watch out for in the middle of the standings and if several other teams are caught off guard and are not getting maximum results, surely this opportunity will be put to good use for Celta Vigo to shift the team's position. In total matches, they all have 26 matches that have been played, of course the competition in the next matches will be even more exciting and changes in position on the standings board will change every week.

Even in the next match, Celta Vigo could get back full points again. because Almeria is not in a good state at the moment. so the chances for Celta vigo will be bigger. and it is possible that with the results of the next match Osasuna will be shifted by Celta vigo. because Osasuna in the last 2 matches has suffered consecutive defeats while in the next match Mallorca will be the next opponent for Osasuna. and Mallorca hosted the match. so Mallorca is likely to be favored. The next match is likely to make the standings ranking change again.

Barcelona's advantage is that they can focus heavily on La Liga and the Copa Del Rey, while Real Madrid have set their sights on the Champions League and perhaps halfheartedly on the Copa Del Rey.

It's reasonable to think that Madrid will no longer focus on La Liga after trailing Barcelona by 12 points, but that doesn't mean they have to play badly and fail to win their other match. There is optimism on the part of Real Madrid, especially regarding the coach because in my opinion Ancelotti does not give up easily.

yes but I repeat, in my opinion it is also due to the fact that Real Madrid, tired, have decided to focus only on the Champions League
it's not like last year and they need to save energy
they can not do otherwise, unfortunately. Carlo Ancelotti is a very intelligent coach

La Liga is their main focus right now in the midst of preparing for the Second Leg Semifinal against Real Madrid at Camp Nou.
However, it is also very natural that Barcelona focus on La Liga because there is no other competition that can be expected to lift a trophy other than the Copa Del Rey which they may not get because Real Madrid still has a chance to stop them.

Both Ancelotti and Xavi must have prepared several plans to anticipate that the team they are currently working with can get a trophy.
If Barcelona only has La Liga and the Copa Del Rey left, then Real Madrid still has the Champions League and the Copa Del Rey.
Between the two remaining competitions, who is the luckiest. That's what we are waiting for from the two coaches.

I know Real Madrid's chances of winning La Liga are not as good as they were at the start of the season, but so far Real Madrid are still pushing for that hope by improving their performance.

I haven't said Barcelona will win La Liga this season because I hope they still struggle to win the next few match. Every team will prove its strength, but of course it's for themselves not depriving Barcelona of the title. No campaign should prevent Xavi and Barcelona from winning the title, that is in the interests of each team.

The fact that there are 12 points difference between Barcelona and Real Madrid tells us the story of the season thus far. Real Madrid has been doing well in the UCL just like they always do, but when they are bad in the league that proves that they are not as good as they used to be, like last year they were better and I do not mean like they were better than Barcelona, that is easy because Barcelona was bad, it is not about standings, it's about how many points they collected by this time, and it was probably higher.

So, overall they are worse this year and just because of this fact I feel like they may not end up winning the UCL title this year, not again at least.

Real Madrid has played very poorly this season; their lack of consistency is the reason they keep losing points unexpectedly.
Real Madrid finds it very challenging to close the twelve-point gap with Barcelona because they don't have time to do so given that Barcelona is also in excellent form and has made winning the La Liga title one of their top priorities this season.

So, overall they are worse this year and just because of this fact I feel like they may not end up winning the UCL title this year, not again at least.

Real Madrid, one of the best teams in the world that knows how to play the Champions League even when they are not in good form, is a team that cannot be predicted when it comes to the Champions League. I don't think we can judge their Champions League performance with the league performance because they can surprise us by making the finals.

Real Madrid will definitely continue to try to win the title until the end of the season. But winning the La Liga title has now become difficult for Madrid. And a defeat against Barcelona in the last match makes the road to the title very difficult for Madrid. Madrid is now 12 points behind Barcelona. Barcelona needs to lose 4 matches and Real Madrid needs to win all the next matches to close this gap. Barcelona has lost just two of their 26 matches this season. I don't think they will lose 4 out of the next 12 matches. On the other hand, it is very unlikely that Real Madrid will win their next 12 matches.

With a gap of 12 points I think the title race is over even though there are games left. Barcelona's victory in El Clasico yesterday became a sign that Madrid had given up. If you look at El Real's performance, it is quite difficult to catch the Blaugrana. Apart from playing the remaining matches until the end of the season in La Liga, Real Madrid must also shift its focus to two other tournaments. I think Madrid should focus better on the Champions League and the Copa Del Rey. However, Benzema must exert his strength to be able to win one of the titles in the remaining competitions.

Right now I no longer hope that Real Madrid will get miracle to win the La Liga title after Barcelona leads the standings with 12 points. Barcelona have been the most favorite team for the title this season, so I will no longer doubt them for the rest of the season unless Barcelona lose 3 in a row once La Liga starts in April.

"No team has ever failed to go on to win the league after leading by such a margin at this stage of the season", at least that is Barcelona's optimism so far.

The road to the league title

There are 12 games to go in La Liga 2022/23, and that is also how many points Barça lead Real Madrid by. That is not enough to start celebrating anything quite yet, but the fact is that no team has ever thrown away such a lead in the history of the competition. And Barça have no intention of being the first.

In fact, 12 points was also the difference between the clubs in 2015/16 with just nine games to go. But four games later, Madrid had closed the gap to just one! Barça eventually took the title on the final day thanks to Luis Suárez's hat-trick against Granada. So you can never be too careful...

With six games left at Spotify Camp Nou and six games on the road, plus what remains of the Copa del Rey, there is a lot to look forward to this next two months.

So, overall they are worse this year and just because of this fact I feel like they may not end up winning the UCL title this year, not again at least.

Last year Real Madrid was not a favored team to win UCL but somehow they were able to beat Chelsea and even Man City as the strongest candidate to win the cup. It's unfair to judge that Real Madrid couldn't win UCL just because of their poor performance in LaLiga. In otherwise, Barcelona playing well in LaLiga yet they couldnt did anything in Europe competitions.

[BitcoinAccepted]

I think the battle for the championship is over. Barcelona a cartload ahead with no less than 12 points ahead. Still, I don't feel that Barcelona has been very dominant this season. They have only been very consistent and have also won many games 1-0 or 2-1. The match against Real Madrid was another good example of this. Anyway, won is won and it is better to win 10x with 1-0 than win 8x with 7-0 and than lose 2x. It's nice that they have become national champions again, after all, it was a while ago.

As of week 26, Real Madrid's point gap with Barcelona has reached 12 points. We can say that this figure is quite far in a competition that has around 12 remaining rounds this season based on the La Liga calendar.
Even though Real Madrid will continue to push their efforts to continue to pursue victory after victory, of course Barcelona as the top of the standings for now do not want the chance to win the championship which is almost close to them to fail because of the mistakes they have made themselves.

No campaign should prevent Xavi and Barcelona from winning the title, that is in the interests of each team.

Although personally really want to see Xavi lift the La Liga trophy as a coach.

Now the title race is not very interesting because of the certainty of Barcelona actually I also still feel this has been decided. It's just that for Madrid this should be a good lesson because they are too sure of themselves with the squad and don't add players when the transfer doesn't always go well.
There is still a chance to win the Copa del Rey now for Madrid even though the aggregate is still held by Barcelona.

Everyone knows it, mate. Now, the chance is getting smaller, it is even almost impossible to overtake Barcelona points. Barcelona is leading with 12 points gap, it is very very difficult to pass it, especially with only 12 remaining matches. I personally think it is just a miracle to overtake Barcelona points now. However, Real Madrid surely will always try to shorten the point gaps. At least, they need to secure the runner-up place. Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are only 5 points different at this time. Real Madrid must think about this seriously!

I haven't said Barcelona will win La Liga this season because I hope they still struggle to win the next few match. Every team will prove its strength, but of course it's for themselves not depriving Barcelona of the title.

Barcelona only wins the title when the season is over. Sure, they will always keep winning until the latest match. I believe Xavi targets to win all the remaining matches to prove that they deserve the La Liga title this season.

This could be another advantage of Barcelona.
But for now, letting Barcelona win again in their match will actually hurt them, I think.
The current condition is that their Supercopa has been defeated by Barcelona, La Liga also almost certainly belongs to Barcelona and now the Copa del Rey if handed over this will clearly make them questionable.
At least they should stop one of Barcelona's trophy stoppers this season.

[emrecemsan]

Real Madrid are a really impressive team to tell the truth. I mean yeah maybe their chance of becoming the La Liga champions this season is very low. But I mean a different thing. They don't have a poor season that easy even if they make manager changes. Zidane had an amazing run for a couple of years with them. And now we are watching Ancelotti doing a great work in the same way. They won the La Liga and Champions League titles both in the previous season for example.

They have a chance ahead to win the Champions League title two times in a row as well. For example Barcelona aren't like this. They had a horrible period with Koeman but now they are much better with Xavi compared to that time.
