La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

-snip-

Barcelona really struggled to beat Getafe, but I wouldn't be surprised if this game ended in a goalless draw. Getafe was so disciplined in defending its defensive area that in the end it made it difficult for Barcelona to score goals. David Soria's performance is also good, he managed to make some important saves for Getefe today.

Of course this draw is a loss on Barcelona's part as this is their second draw in 2 consecutive matches. Now the distance between Barcelona and Real Madrid is only 11 points, still relatively safe, but of course Real Madrid can threaten if Barcelona doesn't improve in the next few matches.

Getafe didn't let Barcelona get full points in that match, considering that they are also currently very close to the relegation zone in terms of points, but to be honest I was personally very surprised to see Getafe today they are really good performance against a team which is currently in first place. Difference is 11 points in their remaining 9 matches, I don't think it's too big a problem for Barcelona and yes they are still relatively safe, because 11 points is enough far gap for Real Madrid to catch up. But yes you're right, Barcelona must improve because if they don't get three points in next few matches, it opens the gate for Real Madrid to fly a little closer with them.

By the way now Valencia they are struggled to get points from Sevilla, these both teams are quite equal in the first half and ended with a score of 0-0 on halftime. Statistically the home team are slightly better, but I hope both them can scored in second half.

Atletico Madrid had a really comfortable game against Almeria today. The result was 2-1 maybe but this shouldn't be misleading.

Because Atletico Madrid found so many goal chances and this score could have been much bigger for them. They had 2 shots coming back from the goal post also. Correa tried some kind of a classy goal while it was 1-0 but he couldn't find the target. He could have scored easier if he didn't make such attempt of course and this cost them conceding a goal later. But still this was an easy game for Atletico Madrid and they won anyway. The first goal was thanks to a really good corner-kick organization by the way. I liked Griezmann's effort a lot today.

Barcelona's 13 points gap at the top of the league have been cut down to 11 after their draw against Getafe. Barcelona have been in a very poor form lately. I don't think Barcelona will loose the league but this their current form can put them in a lot of pressure. From where I'm sitting, they will continue on this their poor form until their players that are injured return.
They played better against Getafe than they did against Girona.  
This is the first time this season that Barcelona have gone three straight matches without a win in all competitions. A lost against Madrid in the Copa del Rey and two draws in the league.
Barcelona needs to sit up so they don't find themselves in a difficult situation.

As far as Barcelona still has an 11 point advantage over Real Madrid in La Liga, then a draw in the last 2 matches in my opinion is not a big problem. Of course Xavi was hoping for a win from Girona and Getafe, but both teams looked very confident to defend and didn't leave room for the Barcelona players to look for goals. In the end, the plan of the two coaches was quite good. Yes, at least 1 point is expected in the match against Barcelona.

Barcelona's chances of securing the title are still very big, but Xavi also needs to ask his players to appear more motivated for the rest of the season to put up a good record. I believe Barcelona will solve the problem about their ineffective performance, which means they have to win in their next match against Atletico Madrid.

Atlético Madrid did not perform badly. But the opponent Almeria is a weak team. I expected a more composed performance from Atletico Madrid against them. Atletico Madrid attacked a lot. However, they won 2-1 against Almeria. Almeria's attack was weak. Also, they don't attack much. The team made only three shots. In the meantime, they managed to score a big goal in the net of Atlético Madrid. Atlético Madrid's defense needs some strengthening. However, if the defenders performed a little more carefully in today's match, maybe the Atletico Madrid team would not have conceded a goal.

The battle for relegation looks quite strange this year in La Liga as I am watching live Valencia vs Sevilla in which Sevilla just scored to open the game and was one of the most bizarre goals but it was a good one,nothing was incorrect in this goal and the game needed it.I just find it strange that Valencia is already relegated if the La Liga was to end tonight and Sevilla is not that far away although this goal and this win if they keep it until the end of the night it will give them a calm that they will be a bit far from relegation.

Now the referee screw it up even more badly after the VAR showed it was a clear hand ball and the referee did not gave it,it is pathetic how this type of referees are never banned from FIFA,I am not fan of any team and I am talking objectively so this referee is a complete idiot in the true meaning of the word.

[Bananington]

Barcelona have failed to win in 2 consecutive weeks and they are still lucky because their rivals Real Madrid also had bad results, at this time Barcelona seems to have no one to rival for the La Liga title this season, they lead by far points in the current La Liga standings with 9 the remaining matches there is no doubt that they can win the league even though their performance is currently in decline.
but the La Liga title is the only likely title for them to win of course they won't miss it.

With every game they loose, Real Madrid gets closer, and although Real Madrid have not been good in the La Liga, If Barcelona keep dropping points, they will give Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid the idea that they can still catch up. It is another disappointing game for Lewandoski who is on a personal run right now to remain the highest goal scorer in the Spanish league but has not scored in the last two games they have played.

[ShowOff]

I really didn't succeed Barcelona failed to win the match against Getafe today, but things didn't go according to plan.
All the players were very frustrated because Getafe played very defensively, which made Barcelona not find a goal until the match ended. Dembele and Pedri's injuries have left Xavi without options as they struggle to find goals, which is Barcelona's current loss. But I'm grateful that Barcelona didn't lose and didn't concede today either.

The next match is difficult, Barcelona will be against Atletico Madrid who just won their match against Almeria today. Atletico Madrid's form has improved, they are consistent, they can threaten, but I'm sure Barcelona can avoid defeat especially because they are playing at Camp Nou.

Valencia team are putting themselves in a very complicated situation after today's lose, they was very lucky because almeria also lost their match and the gap still 3 points, they will play away against elche in the next match and they should definitely get the 3 points otherwise their chances to escape the relegation will be low

Barcelona lost points today, there is not much problem with the leadership for now, the difference is still 11 points, but if they rely on this and sit back, things can get into trouble in the last moments. The team behind Real Madrid will not forgive the mistake, this team will close the point gap immediately. It is very interesting not to score a goal against a very bad team like Getafe with such a rich and powerful team. This year's Barcelona was not on a straight line.

Getafe, however, is able to hold Barcelona greatly by having strong defense. We cannot deny how their players' effort can manage it and make drawn result. Actualy it is quite surprising if Barcelona cannot beat Getafe and only drawn. But this is the result. Getafe strategy is to hold Barcelona players to not to be able to attack Getafe successfuly. But, fortunately, drawn result doesn't give high impact on the point difference.

This is the second time they have played with a draw and the third time in a row they have not scored a single goal after losing big enough to Madrid in the Copa del Rey semi-finals.
They still got 1 point, but on the other hand, with conditions like this, where La Liga still has 9 remaining leagues, will Madrid be able to get closer? My real hope is for Barcelona they will still do things like this and even lose points for a few more games and hope that Madrid can continue to bring 3 points even though 11 points are still quite large.

With every game they loose, Real Madrid gets closer, and although Real Madrid have not been good in the La Liga, If Barcelona keep dropping points, they will give Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid the idea that they can still catch up. It is another disappointing game for Lewandoski who is on a personal run right now to remain the highest goal scorer in the Spanish league but has not scored in the last two games they have played.

The gap is still very big at this moment but if barcelona will consistently gets so many draws and the chance for madrid to be even closer with the club is still there. At least what real madrid can do to become even more consistent than before. Ancellotti urges its club not to think about the result. Ancellotti said that if his club shall be focusing to win any match that will come very soon. Real madrid is still able to play in some different competitions like copa del rey and UCL. No reason for real madrid to give up caused by there are some good trophies that have not been achieved yet by real madrid at this moment.
Benzema may able to surpass him as the top scorer in al liga very soon. The chance is quite big at this moment.





As you can see from the formation above that was used by barcelona. No dembele and pedri have been changing the play style of barcelona a lot. The performance from raphinha and kessi is very disappointing at this moment. Barcelona will be also losing gavi very soon. It's very disappointed to see xavi was blaming the grass is the main reason why barcelona was not able to win against getafe. Xavi is always making excuses if his clubs face bad result.

They were fortunate not to have given up a goal today against Getafe. If Getafe had one lucky decent chance, they would have taken advantage of it to score and then defend once more. Despite the pressure they were under, their defensive performance today was excellent, as they prevented any of the Barcelona players from scoring. Due to how tight the points are in the bottom ranks of La Liga, they actually played well today and are attempting to move just a little bit away from the relegation zone.

The next match is difficult, Barcelona will be against Atletico Madrid who just won their match against Almeria today. Atletico Madrid's form has improved, they are consistent, they can threaten, but I'm sure Barcelona can avoid defeat especially because they are playing at Camp Nou.

Although there are quite a few points separating the two teams, the game is not truly decided by that. With 4 wins and a loss against Besiktas in their previous five games, Atletico Madrid's recent performances are excellent. Although they might not be competing for a league contender once more, but they would still like to beat Barcelona in their upcoming game.

[execijutiere]

We can say that Getafe got an important point for themselves by drawing without a goal against barcelona.I must say that barcelona, who played a dominant football from the beginning to the end of the match, lost 2 points by not making good use of the goal positions they found.Since Getafe is in the relegation pot, we can see it as a good development for them to get a draw from such a match.Barcelona, on the other hand, did not increase the point difference with real madrid with this draw.

that possibility can still be pursued by Atletico Madrid. it will require hard work and also the right strategy. because the last two met at home to Atletico, they had to lose 01 to Barcelona. and the next meeting of the two they have to compete at home against Barca. certainly not easy to beat Barcelona at home. but Barca is not in good shape, Atletico Madrid can take advantage of this to find loopholes and steal a win at home from Barca.

Exactly, this is good achievement for Getafe to make draw result against Barcelona. Although they only get drawn, they have made good defense. I agree with many people who said Getafe performnace during the match was good enough. Barcelona has top quality of squad, Getafe is just a small club but Getafe can steal 1 point from them.

[Wiwo]

A deserved win for real madrid yesterday against cadiz even though the first goal was a bit late the game was totally dominated by real madrid since the beginning this loss is not good for cadiz since they are not that far from relegation zone they need to be carefull if valencia team win tomorrow only 1 point will be separating them from laliga 2.

Yes ooo the last night Real madrid gsme again cediz in the la liga is a very exciting match  even though cediz is a smaller club, Real Madrid played as if there were meeting top clubs like Manchester City and that kind of mentality is what makes Real Madrid different from every other clubs this season and even the season before this one.

I am sure Real Madrid is going to retain the La Liga title since they are the defending Champion, other clubs may try to take that spot from them, but the fact that real madrid is one of the clubs that have high maintenance of consistency will easily push aside other clubs such as Barcelona to cling to the trophy once again.

It's a great achievement for Getafe to get 1 point at home against such an in-form and title contending team.Maybe they will manage to stay in the league with this 1 point, we don't know that.Although they didn't dominate the game in general, it's a great achievement to get a draw without conceding a goal in this match.This result also helps real madrid a little bit because the points difference between them doesn't increase.The points difference is now 9 and there are 9 weeks left in the league.It's a difference to close and real madrid should not lose points after this.

These 2 weeks Barcelona have not been able to return to their best performance. last week Barcelona were held to a draw by Girona and today Barcelona was also held to a draw by Getafe. Somehow in these 2 weeks I thought there were too many match results that did not meet expectations and many of my predictions failed in these 2 weeks. not only in Laliga but also in the Premier League. well for next week I hope Barcelona can get better results even though next week's match looks like it will be much more fierce. but I'm pretty sure Barcelona won't lose that game at least.

It is another disappointing game for Lewandoski who is on a personal run right now to remain the highest goal scorer in the Spanish league but has not scored in the last two games they have played.

In two previous matches, Barcelona could not get a win and only chose to make a draw.Real Madrid must take advantage of this to try to get back up and score lots of goals so that it can be said that there is an opportunity to seize Barcelona's position. The important thing is that Real Madrid must always win every match.
