La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Oluwa-btc]

This season is over about the La Liga title already. Barcelona put an end to the season by winning that El Clasico match by a great game and comeback. They really deserve the title this season as well. But it has been just shocking to see Real Madrid giving up on this title very early. I know that their priority has been the Champions League title. But they weren't like this in the previous season.

I mean they were caring about not only the Champions League but also the La Liga. We all saw what it brought about for them. If they don't win the Champions League title as well people might even start talking about Ancelotti's possible departure.

It gladdens me that my support wasn't all but a big waste of time. Supporting Barcelona was as a result of how determined and ready they was to win the league for the fans and also to save the job of the coach Xavi Hernandez.
At times, most big games I mean, they're without the most vital and important players but still they still have to find a way to win the game. And I must applaud those defender's, the dane Christensen, Uruguayan, Araujo and Balde the Spardinard lol, french international Kounde for they've all contributed to Barcelona's consistency in the backline, I expect a more dominant Barcelona next season. Unstoppable and Unbeatable.

I was about to say that Betis are really unlucky this week as they are going to face Atletico Madrid in an away game.

But they aren't very unlucky actually. Because Real Sociedad's job is also difficult on the same week. Their opponent is Villarreal and they are playing an away game. We might see the rivalry for top four continuing in the same way after next games end. Betis must be wishing to get the fourth position this time which was a thing they missed it by not a big gap last season. They had better show their best in their game up next.

Real Betis and Real Sociedad's performances are almost identical. Due to the weak attack of both teams, they were not able to score full points in several matches. And so it is not possible to predict which of these two teams will be fourth in the points table. The difference between the two teams is only 3 points. And it won't be difficult for Real Betis to close the gap if they are able to perform on a somewhat regular basis. Villarreal will also try their best to qualify for the Champions League and possibly the Champions League. However, the performance of this team is not regular. And Villarreal is 7 points behind than Sociedad.

I think, Barcelona are very close to the end of the tournament to embrace the la Liga league title because their performance so far showed that they have what it takes to maintain this strategies they are using in this season till the end.  Last season was very bad for Barcelona to perform well, because they have some challenges concerning one of their potential striker Lionel Messi who left the team for some reason. I don't think, Real Madrid can achieve this season title because their performance in this season showed that they are not too strong in this season compared to last season that made them to displayed wonders through out the tournament.

Indeed, Barcelona's performance seems to have convinced them to win the title this year. However, we have to accept that according to Barcelona's performance, it is very important for them to win the La Liga title this year. Because it is doubtful whether such opportunity exists later.

[Don Pedro Dinero]

I think Barcelona planned this very well. Barcelona understood that it is not going to be a realistic idea to go for the other cups or trophies. Actually, unless it is the Champions League trophy, it is not going to matter that much anyway.

So they made the right decision to go for the La Liga title. It's not like they couldn't care less about any other trophies. But the main priority was the la Liga title. And we can see what a beautiful job they have done. They are also playing well in the Copa del Rey. Let's see if they can actually go ahead in the competition. They do have the setup for it.

No, that's totally not it.
So are you tryna convince me that certain clubs don't crave for the champions league too? (Even when they know they can't even win the premiership for the next 3 tries?)?...
When you aim at something, and you aren't able to get it smack-dabbed, what's happens? It's certainly gonna land somewhere..that's exactly the ideology on their minds;

I am with you on this. It is not that Barcelona has given priority to the league to the detriment of the Champions League. In fact, it started with a bumpy start in the league. Clubs like Barcelona or Madrid at the beginning of the season go for everything. They go for as many titles as they can get. It is as the season progresses and depending on the results that they are forced to focus on one thing or another.

Indeed, these two teams had experienced inconsistent performance so that they often got less than optimal results. But either Betis or Sociedad have started to fix this problem by winning the previous game and indeed the distance of three points is not safe for Sociedad because Betis really has the capacity to shift their position in the top 4 of the standings. For Villarreal they have actually been quite good lately, it's just that irregular problems can be a very bad boomerang for the club. It looks like we will be very entertained by the battle for the top 4 positions this season, considering that the distance between these three teams is not much different.

Well there was a time where Real Sociedad had eight or even nine points more than Betis, but Real Sociedad became weaker and dropped quite a number of points. Now the competition for the Champions League qualification is obvious between the two teams, but I wouldn't count Villareal fully out yet, especially if they can manage to play a successful game in La Liga against Real Sociedad next weekend. If I had to make a bet, I think I would bet on Betis as they have some better momentum going for themselves right now. But perhaps the break does change a couple of things for everyone.

About the Copa del Rey, that's not for them this time around.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

Copa Del Rey not for them? after they could get ahead of Real Madrid in the first leg? Isn't it too early to say that, moreover they are superior and also they can beat Real Madrid several times this season. I'm sure they will also try to get him, although La Liga is their top priority. Not only that, the second leg match is also a prestigious match against Real Madrid. This will be an interesting match for the umpteenth time from the meeting of the 2 giant clubs this season.

Actually, the big chance is for Barcelona to be able to secure the trophy again in the Copa del Rey, especially when their toughest opponent is obviously the semi-finals. If you look elsewhere, namely Bilbao and Osasuna, you can say they are below them.
Winning 1 goal on aggregate is clearly a very good capital at the moment, although it is my hope that Madrid will provide different conditions and not allow them to win in the second leg later.

Of course now it's in their favor even though I don't really like it, but the fact that they really excelled in the first leg cannot be eliminated and now they will play at Camp Nou with an aggregate of 1 goal, this is clear to be superior for them.

Now it only remains to see how Madrid will react after the defeat they have received again and again from Barcelona. It would be great if they started to wake up and at least be able to prevent Barcelona from bringing a trophy, but if not last season's situation is like the opposite this season.

Real Sociedad vs Villareal and Real Betis vs Atletico Madrid are two matches that will attract quite a bit of attention next week. because these 4 teams are sequentially ranked 3 to 6 in the current standings. but for the Real Batis vs Atletico Madrid match I think it will be quite easy to predict that the advantage will certainly be on Atletico Madrid's side. In the history of the meetings between these two teams, Real Betis have never been able to win against Atletico Madrid in the last 5 meetings. and Atletico Madrid will host this match. Of course, even mentally, Atletico Madrid will be better in front of their own supporters.

[Cryptmuster]

They try to do it every time they play, but if it was that easy, trust me, they would. At the beginning of the match, Barcelona created a very strong pressure on Real Madrid, Ancelotti expected this, but it is clear that it was very difficult for the Real players. Real Madrid played in their own way and they had a chance to beat Barcelona, but first there was a goal cancellation due to offside and then Barcelona scored at the end of the match.

The Barcelona team is doing well in La Liga. I did not expect the Barcelona team to perform so well this season. However, after Xavi joined Barcelona as coach, the team regained its strength in a great way. I am very optimistic that Barcelona will win the La Liga title.

And we can see what a beautiful job they have done. They are also playing well in the Copa del Rey. Let's see if they can actually go ahead in the competition. They do have the setup for it.

Accidents with leaving in the Champions League group phase at this time made them more focused on looking for opportunities in the struggle for trophies in the domestic league.
It is now certain that La Liga will also be theirs after the Supercopa trophy. In addition, at this time the Copa del Rey also they have a big chance there. What's more important than this is that Xavi is really successful for his second season this time around.

This was a poor performance from them in Champions League as their main focus was to build a good winning unit which give them good results in long run, so they have successful in their strategy with now title in their pocket Super Cup is also won in Saudi Arab and Copa del Roy is also now having no problem for the joining to Barcelona as winner Xavi is doing things for the long run which is surely going to help them in coming years many exciting players are in squad and things looking bright with this all now we can expect good results in Champions League for the next season because they need more trophies for settling their debit which need good income which is possible just with the wins.

The first leg of the Copa del Rey looked too monotonous and it seemed that only luck saved Barcelona from defeat. What is clear is that in the second leg, Real Madrid must have a mission to surpass this thin aggregate so that they can advance to the final round. But it doesn't look easy considering that Real Madrid have to go to Camp Nou to play the second leg, even so I'm still optimistic that Real Madrid will be able to beat Barcelona.

The major teams are about to show up, so Real Sociedad and Villarreal had better get ready. Let's discuss Betis and Atletico Madrid now. Betis's prospects do not appear promising. I mean, did you know that Atletico Madrid had beaten Betis in five consecutive games? Losing at rock-paper-scissors forever and ever! Although I can't empathize,...

However, these squads face a very challenging schedule this week. Fans should expect a wild ride as Real Betis fights for fourth place and Atletico Madrid strives to maintain its advantage. Atletico Madrid is a monster on the pitch, and I say that even if Betis is my favorite team. Betis needs to use their brains, brawn, and luck to come out on top. But again, odd things happen all the time in sports, right?

Of course now it's in their favor even though I don't really like it, but the fact that they really excelled in the first leg cannot be eliminated and now they will play at Camp Nou with an aggregate of 1 goal, this is clear to be superior for them.

To be honest if 1 goal looks  a lot for real madrid caused by real was always losing against barcelona in the previous matches. The last game in la liga proved how barcelona was able to counter real madrid. The first leg happened in santiago and real madrid was losing 1 goal as aggregate. The problem is barcelona knows how to counter real madrid at this moment with the same rotation that is used over and over by Ancelotti. Im feeling so doubtful with real madrid when it will be playing the second leg at camp nou. it seems like that this gonna be hard match for real madrid.

Now it only remains to see how Madrid will react after the defeat they have received again and again from Barcelona. It would be great if they started to wake up and at least be able to prevent Barcelona from bringing a trophy, but if not last season's situation is like the opposite this season.

Ancelotti must have learned a lot from the previous match but the problem is real madrid didn't try to take a formation that could anticipate barcelona. I meant the same strategy will not work for twice against barcelona. Real madrid was losing two el classico in a row.
it was telling us about how barcelona was able to counter real madrid. I expect there will be a huge change to happen during the second leg against barcelona in camp nou

I don't expect Real Madrid to win against Barcelona. Real Madrid is a really strong team. But they are not able to eat well against Barcelona. In the last 5 meetings between these two teams, Barcelona has won four matches and Madrid has won just one match. Moreover, since Barcelona won the first leg, they will be pressure free in the second leg. And they will only aim to draw the match. Jahrao Real Madrid is now very busy with Champions League matches. So the chances of beating Barcelona seem low to me.

[Pulsar77]

I really appreciate Villarreal's rise in the standings this season. I mean they didn't make an impressive start truthfully. They had serious problems for some time within the season. But it looks like they have started to solve the real problems existing in the team. They are quite effective about defending their opponents recently as well. You can understand this easily by their results on the previous four weeks of the league. They played against two tough opponents like Osasuna (A) and Betis (H) for example.

But they managed to leave these matches behind with 4 points anyway. Their performance against Osasuna was very positive as well. They are in a good condition in the standings now and they just need to keep this up more to qualify for a tournament.

[Emitdama]

Top two teams are having good stand at their spots after them, we have few interesting matches in final round of this season with Atlético Madrid which was not good in early rounds now securing their spot at third even with this current performance they can fight for the second spot as well against Real Madrid which is having issues regarding their injured players and bad performance as well, but things can change which is nature of this game with Real Sociedad is also having good time, but now they have to visit Villarreal which is also on good run and if they beat them surely it's going to create good chance for all these teams Bets, Real Sociedad and Villarreal to claim fourth spot in coming weeks which is surely not easy, but things could be at their best but in case of wins for Atlético and Real Sociedad things could be badly wrong for the Betis and Villarreal.

As I said before, in the first leg of the Copa del Rey Barcelona really got lucky in that match. reasonable, because Xavi prefers to play in a defensive pattern. because, the spearhead player they relied on was absent due to an injury. also, several other important players. now in the El Clasico match in the La Liga competition. Barcelona showed their skills, both teams showed an interesting game. unfortunately, Barcelona controlled the game more and won the match again. the difference is, the victory in this match they played impressively.

Speaking of the second leg of the Copa del Rey, theoretically, Barcelona is superior because they are playing at Camp Nou, their own headquarters. plus, Barcelona has won three meetings with wins in three different competitions. at least, they have a stronger motivational drive to win the second leg match later.

On the other hand, Madrid is determined to provide fierce resistance to the home team. apart from this match being an important match entitled El Clasico, Don Carlo will focus his team on toppling Barcelona. however, not an easy matter but not something impossible. after all, both teams are the strongest teams in this competition. So, I suspect that this match will present a fierce battle from the two teams, I even suspect that there will be many cards issued by the referee. so, whatever the outcome, I will just enjoy the game as a football lover.

Although Barcelona was very ineffective in the first match, they managed to win the match 1-0 with an own goal by Militao.  In the last league match between them, Barcelona won.  The Copa Del Rey rematch for Real Madrid on April 5 turned into a battle for reputation.  Therefore, Real Madrid will definitely have to win in that match.
