La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[HajiBagi]

It is unfortunate that Barcelona could not take advantage of Real Madrid's defeat yesterday, this should make Barca more comfortable at the top because it can increase the difference in points. Barca's defeat was not expected although Rayo cannot be underestimated because in the last few meetings, Rayo was able to take points from Barca. The point difference between these two clubs remains the same so competition remains although it is not easy to catch the leaders.

This week Barca will face Betis at Nou Camp and Real Madrid face Almeria. Barca will have a relatively more difficult match to win than Real Madrid who face a team that is always difficult to get a positive result against them. But still, the home team is the favorite because Barca has a clean record when playing at home this season.

Thinking Barcelona is better than real Madrid is not a good idea; remember that that is a game and anything can happen to Barcelona as well as real Madrid match with real Betis. I didn't expect Rayo Vallenaco to defeat Barcelona in that way. Barcelona think Rayo vallenaco can not play in that way at the first half and Rayo give them a shock of 2 goals. I believe that's what makes them serious at the second half and manage to score 1 before the match ends.
Real Madrid might not have won La Liga this season, but I have no doubt that they won't be out of the Champions League next. It will come as a surprise to everyone when Real Madrid wins La Liga next season since I have always believed in them.

Atletico Madrid are at least qualifying for the Champions League group stage which is like a consolation prize for them. Normally of course winning a ticket for the Champions League is important. However Atletico Madrid are a team that can do much better than this. They must be able to be in a title competition for a long time in the La Liga. They were even a serious contender for the Champions League title back in the day.

But this season their general look hasn't been good at all. Their being eliminated in the Champions League early and being out of a title competition in the La Liga in the same way are big problems to think about for them. I will be curious about Atletico Madrid's changes for next season.

Atletico won against Mallorca to get 3 points in today's match, considering that Madrid and Barcelona suffered defeats that made Atletico's point gap with Madrid only 2 points different, this competition might not make a difference in chasing Barcelona at the top of the standings because it is very far to become league champions this season. Even though they managed to get rid of Madrid in 2nd place, Atletico are still in the top 4 for next season's UCL ticket.

I think their goal is not to win the league but to stay in the top 4 to get a UCL ticket next season, however they will continue to steal wins in the remaining matches at the end of this season, it can be seen from the statistics in the last 5 matches they got 4 wins and 1 defeat it shows they are still consistent to steal 3 points and stay on their winning ways even though they are playing badly in UCL .

Still unpredictable with Barcelona performance last several games, after three draw in a raw and success winning against Atletico Madrid as strong team but have loss points from Rayo Vallecano in last games. Regardless of rival team Real Madrid losing points, Barcelona should be able to appear consistent and be able to lock in the La Liga title as soon as possible. But Barcelona can't win from Rayo Vallecano and have working hard for upcoming next match to win against Real Betis.

Barcelona have many points gap with Madrid but if can't take points on all matches left there are not guarantee for winning La Liga this season indeed Madrid still on 2nd position right now.

Barcelona are in one of the best forms at the top of La Liga. But such a sudden defeat really surprised the fans. In the last match of Barcelona, ​​Barcelona tried to use new tactics compared to the opposition team, but I think the Barcelona players failed to adapt to this strategy. As a result, Barcelona lost.

That's football for you, you don't expect the perfect team, they have the relaxing moments where even the lesser club will strike them unexpectedly. What I see in that match is that Barcenola is just unprepared, but by the time they would be more serious, it's too late. Rayo Vallecano is not a team I expect to beat FC Barcelona but that's the reality yesterday. It was bad to point out that they (Rayo Vallecano) scored twice before Barca could be able to score once towards the end of the game.

Most clubs get relaxed when they are at a wide-gap level, but it boomerangs at times, just like in the case of Arsenal in EPL.

[rahmad2nd]

this week's matches were like a joke, Real Madrid lost against Girona with a score of 2-4 and Barcelona lost against Rayo with a score of 1-2.
I think the top teams when playing against teams that are far below them are like underestimating and ending in defeats for Real Madrid and Barcelona. it's really strange why when the top team meets the team below it, they always give a very bad performance and even almost lose without a goal, but in reality these two big teams still have a score, even if it's only a little.
for Barcelona it might not be a problem even in this week's match but for Real Madrid this is a threat that must be prepared to accept because Atletico Madrid has performed much better in La Liga than Real Madrid and Atletico is ready to shift Real Madrid's position.

I don't think I agree if it is said that Real Madrid and Barcelona underestimated their opponents in this week's defeat, but that's football, in reality not all matches played can always be won by your favorite team. I'm disappointed with Real Madrid's loss, maybe the same with Barcelona, ​​​​​​but they fought to win it as best they could.

But whatever the result, I think towards the end of the season it's too risky to place bets on teams that are as close to the title as Barcelona. You would also imagine the same thing, it is also risky to get a bet on Real Madrid considering they are not too focused on La Liga.

For sure I lost the bet choosing Barcelona, ​​but this is the sensation of the bet. we don't know what happened, even after going through a series of research and analysis. each result, is always determined when the game is played or after. but yes, the two matches that took place were beyond the expectations of the fans of each team.

Barcelona's defeat of Rayo, must be repeated.  that way, in 4 meetings Barcelona was unable to win even a fight. At first I thought Barcelona would win the match and score at least two goals. in fact, Barcelona lost. if we review based on statistics, Barcelona controlled the game. in fact, they have several opportunities that are not far from Rayo. it's just that, in this match Barcelona's performance really played badly as a whole team. I will refer to some names like, Pedri, Balde, Kounde, who actually play Underperform. actually I doubt that if Perdri becomes the main starter, he should become a substitute player to adapt again to the rhythm of the game. Xavi's mistake, not playing Kessie as the main starter.

But by the way, going ups and downs is normal even though Barcelona is a stronger team than Rayo.  on the contrary, so did Madrid's defeat the other day. Well, I think it's all natural, even Don Carlo or Xavi don't want their team to fall in that match.

Barcelona again failed to lock the title faster, a 2-1 defeat to Rayo Vallecano made Barca fail to widen the distance to 14 points.
I'm not happy with Xavi's concept of letting his team play so relaxed after being able to outperform their competitors by a very wide range of points. He shouldn't be experimenting with his squad in every game. I prefer Barcelona to always play at a high level and aim for three points in every game. This is important for Xavi to hone his players' abilities again as well as to strengthen the team's performance to become more cohesive and can be a good capital for preparation for next season.

We can now say with certainty without fear of making a mistake that Barcelona has won or is winning La Liga.
Real Madrid is all mentally and physically projected to the semifinal (and who wouldn't be) of the Champions League
if he passes this step, surely the cup will be all his (the Italian teams are currently suffering)

[Asiska02]

But this season their general look hasn't been good at all. Their being eliminated in the Champions League early and being out of a title competition in the La Liga in the same way are big problems to think about for them. I will be curious about Atletico Madrid's changes for next season.

Atletico Madrid were always a big team in the Champions League some years back. They’ve been qualifying to the champions league final several times but the win was never in their favour. In recent seasons, their performance have been poor unlike previous seasons. They don’t get to go far in European competitions and are eliminated early. In the La Liga, they keep doing admirably well to finish in top 4 spot but the dream of winning La Liga title is not really realistic for them yet.

The downward trend in Barcelona's performance occurred after they were defeated by Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey. and after that Barcelona became a bit problematic in their attack pattern. The effectiveness of exploiting the opportunities they get seems to have decreased drastically. I don't know what happened to Barcelona. Even I was a little disappointed with Barcelona's defeat by Rayo. because I think Barcelona in that match should be superior without a doubt. but it turns out my expectations were too high. But this is the excitement in football, sometimes matches don't go according to predictions.

Could this have Barcelona downtrend be caused by their good performance so far in the league? I mean, since they already close to winning the league title, they might feel relent and reduce the efforts they put in matches these days. Yesterday’s match against Rayo Vallecano was a good match in their favour for them to win but they couldn’t secure a win after Rayo Vallecano was still leading them in the 80th minutes with two goals. Lewandowski late goal couldn’t stop them from equalising the game either.

This defeat will also have no impact on Barcelona's position at the top of the standings, because Real Madrid also did not get full points in this week's match. The only team in the top standings to win this week is Atletico Madrid so that the point gap with Real Madrid, which is still in second place in the standings, is getting closer and there will be a possibility for Atletico Madrid to take second place in the standings from Real Madrid if Atletico Madrid can win again in the next game and Real Madrid can lose again in the next game.

Barcelona failed to make the distance with Real Madrid wider, the defeat to Rayo Vallecano made the gap between the two still 11 points. Barcelona must be able to improve their performance in the next few matches to secure the title, I think the defeat to Rayo Vallecano has not made it worse in the remaining seven matches.

In another match, Atletico Madrid immediately stepped on the gas after a dramatic defeat to Barcelona last week, Atletico victory over Mallorca made the gap with Real Madrid only two points. For the last few matches, Barcelona is still safe in first place because the distance from Real Madrid is very far, while Real Madrid must consistently maintain its quality if you don't want second place to be taken over by Atletico Madrid.

[rendravolt]

When Real Madrid loses, Barcelona also suffers and sometimes these two teams are very funny. But that's what happens in football, a team that should be able to win the title this season quickly but has to slow down because of yesterday's defeat. Barcelona seems to have to be a little patient after yesterday's defeat against Rayo Vallecano and must maximize the next match to accelerate the La Liga title this season. Sometimes barcelona has not been consistent so far even though they also rarely lose, but one thing is certain they have to improve their performance now.

I think Real Madrid and Barcelona could meet in the knockout stages in La Liga going into the final stages. Despite Barcelona performing so well, it would be really sad for the team if they were defeated by Real Madrid at the last moment and left La Liga. If Barcelona is not able to win the La Liga title this time, the club may be in some trouble.

As for the Laliga title, there is no doubt that Barcelona will get it this season. And about Real Madrid, they are currently very focused on the Champions League. But I still doubt whether Real Madrid will be able to qualify for the final or not. Because it looks like Manchester City, who is the opponent for Real Madrid in the semi-finals, is really very strong. In fact they have beaten Arsenal very well in the premier league. Meanwhile, Real Madrid is currently experiencing a serious decline in performance. but I hope Real madrid will be ready again with their maximum strength in the semi-finals of the Champions League. and Real Madrid also have to maintain 2nd place in the Laliga because Real Madrid's point difference with Atletico Madrid is currently dwindling. And if Real Madrid is still in a negative trend next week then Atletico Madrid will replace Real Madrid in the next few weeks.

the coach Quique Sanchez Flores was sacked today at fc getafe. the 58-yo QSF, had come to getafe in october 2021 and had finished the first season in 15th place. now his team stands with 31 points after 31 matchdays, just one point ahead of the relegation zone. who will be his successor is not clear at the moment...

But Real Madrid defeat is very bad rather than Barcelona, Real Madrid gave their opponents a good history. Although they are far behind Barcelona in the standings, but they should be able to show a good game to their fans. Regarding Barcelona, you are right Barcelona must improve their performance to secure the title faster. Meanwhile, Rayo Vallecano and Girona maybe will to be excited after beating the top team.

Yes, these coincidences are always striking because everyone follows the top teams. As for Barcelona, I wrote about it a long time ago - its luck is not infinite. They had many games where they won by a small margin and in fact the game could have ended differently. Now "accident" works in the other direction, plus, of course, the factor that Barcelona has no great motivation anymore, since the title is in their pocket.
By the way, I'm happy for Lewandowski - he finally scored a goal. Recently, he has slowed down a lot and clearly does not correspond to what was expected of him.

Did you just now realize it? I think it is a late statement, because when Barcelona already has a big gap in points with Real Madrid even when Barcelona is still playing in the Copa del Rey and also in the Europa League. I personally am very confident that Barcelona will remain at the top of the La Liga standings until the end of the season.

The reason I'm so sure Barcelona will stay top of La Liga until the end of the season is because Barcelona impressed even when Xavi was Barcelona coach. Therefore, basically Barcelona's performance under Xavi's coaching has greatly improved but Barcelona's improvement has only been impressive enough in La Liga.

[Leviathan.007]

Elche's loosing spree is starting to be epic. I can't count how many matches they have lost in a row. Surprisingly, stats are not so bad if you analyse them thoroughly. In the case against Celta de Vigo, the possession, shots, passes and pass accuracy were quite even between both teams. But it seems that Elche is not capable of shooting on target when they have the chance, as you said. And this is eventually traduced in points, of course.

They are the last team in La Liga and can't expect to see Elche winning a game against any team even if they team in a weak team, they totally lost their hope for staying in La Liga and they know they can't be in La Liga for next season because the bad results they got, Elchle won only two games during this season and they lost most of the games they had so far.

Lol. Non of those top team defeat is good, all are bad and a big disappointment before the fans.  If I'm to speak on any of the teams between Real Madrid and Barcelonan, I would say Barcelona is more disappointing at their performance cuz they lose to a more weaker team than real Madrid.  Before the clash between Mardid and Girona, Girona were already winning and was in a good shape. They won 3 out of 5 matches while Vallecano won just one. But in all, the two teams will still remain unpperturbed seeing that they are not affected by the lose.
