La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[herurist]

I wonder what kind of plans Barcelona have for next season. As they are really close to declaring their La Liga title for this season people will eye them the most for next one. Xavi has been doing a really good job in the La Liga so far however his main problem has been with the Champions League.

The plan should make Barcelona squad stronger by signing more top players.
If they target to win UCL title for the next season, Barcelona squad must play more consistently and have better squad quality. Barcelona attackers and defenders need to strengthen, they seem not really convincing.

It would look easy if there was no financial fair play and they had money there, but in this case they not only don't have enough money, the problem of financial fair play still haunts them to this day.
Their condition is not much different from before when it comes to finances, they may push with some players who are brought in but the problem is that they also can't continue to have problems with authority and cutting players' wages because this is not very ethical for such a big club.

Valencia also won the match again and moved away from the relegation line a little bit. Even the prospect of their relegation was frightening for such an established club. I hope they get over these bad days soon.

Valencia and Sevilla before have nothing to do with the relegation zone and their presence their was a big mistake made by them. Fortunately they recovered and get a bit away. Sevilla position is better while Valencia aren't that secure with only 2 points difference between them and Getafe in the 18th position.
Valencia will have hard times vs opponents like Villarreal, Real Madrid and Real Betis mainly among the seven remaining opponents. Nothing is guaranteed there.

Xavi needs to start taking the right steps to be successful in the Champions League as well. I wonder if one of these steps would be to sign Messi back in the summer. As you might have heard Messi doesn't have an intention to extend with PSG for now. Who knows maybe we can see a deal between Barcelona and him.

Does signing Messi guarantee the UCL title? And Why Xavi must sign Messi again even though he already has a lot of quality young players?
I think Xavi doesn't need to sign Messi, he must prioritize for young players. If he wants to sign top strikers, he is better to sign young strikers like Osimhen.

If Xavi signs Messi, it is probably because he believes in him. And if Messi returns to FCB, I wouldn't say it's because he is to win the UEFA champions league for them. Barcelona is Messi's home. I can recall that Messi shared tears when he departed FC Barcelona, and that wasn't his free will decision.  Messi left Barca because of financial challenges as of then and it will be a good decision if Messi returns to Barcelona. We all know that Messi is not doing well in PSG and is yet to extend the contract, there is nothing bad in him choosing Barca as his next destination.

The two wins that Valencia got in the two matches they have played have had a good impact on their ranking in the standings table, in fact this is important for them because they managed to get out of the relegation zone. although until now Valencia's position is not too safe in the standings table because it has a fairly tight point distance from the relegation zone team, but Valencia opportunity to move away from the relegation zone is large enough that they can be utilized by Valencia players.

It's a pleasant come back for Valencia as they never even hoped to win on this one... I just has some few glances and then, away I left to get some baby chores completed, only for me to realize they were leading already..... bravo!!
Valencia hasn't even made plans for any positive retracment yet; even for the fact that they had won two league games, they're still left lingering around the 16th position with only 33 points.. now they'll have to face Thier worst rival as they're symmetrically on the same position.

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.

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.

The difference of 11 points that closes the distance between the two rulers of La Liga Madrid and Barcelona is quite far, with seven match remain before La Liga ends it will be very difficult for Real Madrid to overtake Barcelona at the top of the standings, Madrid needs to win all the remain matches in Laliga and hope Barcelona make another mistake again
Barcelona's defeat yesterday, in my opinion, was only part of make the competition at the top of the standings even more interesting, I'm not sure there will be a change in positions one and two.

It's definitely going to be an uphill battle for Real Madrid to catch up to Barcelona at this point. But as a true fan, you know that anything can happen in football! I'm not saying it's going to be easy, but we shouldn't give up hope just yet.

The Champions League and Copa del Rey are still on the line, too. Ancelotti and the team are laser-focused on them at the moment, and I think they'll have some success. Winning La Liga isn't the only goal; we want to be successful in every competition and leave an indelible impact on the sport as a whole.

[DiMarxist]

Finally, Barcelona end up dropping 3 points in the same way that Real Madrid theirs yesterday. How I wish Real Madrid won their match against Girona yesterday and Barcelona lost theirs today. It would have been 8 points gap by now and that would have given Barcelona pressure to win their remaining matches.

Shocking to witnessed both elite club competing for the league title losing over the weekend games. Carlo Ancelotti have too much on his mind, right now he have given up on the laliga challenge and facing Pep Guardiola, because both amazing coaches have unfinished business to settle in UCL. Real madrid attention is divided, they have a tough game to play against Manchester city who are desperate for the UCL trophy.  failed to take advantage of the defeat of their preeminent rivalry for the laliga title. Barcelona lose to an average club, the same circumstances applied to the Los blancos.

Football matches are contrary to the fans thought. Because the time you want Barcelona to loss and want it opponent to win the game is the time Barcelona play well and win the match very well.
Villarreal vs Espanyol is another match I was shocked. Before the match started, I thought Espanyol would do well in the game but Vilarreal best them like children to 4-2.

It's quite a thrilling match actually especially when in this match I bet on Villarreal and they still have a draw until the 80th minute obviously this makes me a little pessimistic and have to give up the bet again but indeed from the 80th minute Villarreal seemed different because indeed some of their opportunities seemed to be all out and Espanyol who failed to continue to focus made this difficult for them.

The match was as I expected and in this match Espanyol also lost a player due to the referee's sending off in the final minutes of the match.

I think it's not a question of real fans or not but it's about being realistic.
Even though we really don't want to see Barcelona win the La Liga title, there's actually nothing that can be done, especially with the current conditions with a very large gap.
Madrid have shifted their focus and in rough language they have not cared about the la league trophy for this season because they are aware that this will actually make their focus on the champions League dispersed.

True... Most times in football the result we get is not the result we except. The opening goal was scored by Espanyol but later sevilla won with about 4 goals all in the second half. Another surprising one is the athletic Bilbao match we seems not to be having any goal. I Wasn't expecting this in San Mame's. Athletic Madrid were playing exceedingly well in the first half and I was expecting them to score in the first halfBut now it seems the match is quite difficult for them.  But Sevilla in the other hand hasn't made any significant goal attempts and this is making the match really boring.

Real Madrid focuses on UCL and Copa Del Rey because it more makes sense to win. You must be aware that the point gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid is too far in La Liga standings, Real Madrid players must think to keep their energy for UCL and Copa Del Rey final. They still have big matches in UCL and they have a crucial match in Cop Del Rey, too. In early the next month, they need to play with their best performance and all the players must be available. So, I support the idea that Real Madrid doesn't play too aggressively in La Liga matches. But they don't need to miss points because they need to maintain 2nd place position in La Liga, too.

it was a dramatic victory for Villarreal. 2 goals in the last 10 minutes shows the loss of focus Espanyol. and that was put to good use by Villarreal to get the winning points. the tension of the game suddenly increased when the game was almost over, however, Valencia had to admit Villarreal's advantage. and accept staying in the relegation zone. they have to try harder to get out. they still have a chance.

Espanyol paid a heavy price for this match after losing, one of their players had to receive a red card. A truly dramatic victory was won by Villarreal in this match. Two goals in the last minute locked in Villarreal victory in this match which allowed them to end the bad streak in the last two matches

Espanyol are increasingly immersed at the bottom of the standings, they again fail to get the points that make their position survive in the relegation zone. Espanyol collected 28 points and are 4 points away from cazid in safe order

Sevilla's match against Athletic Club is over and Sevilla is the winner, although with a very narrow margin of victory points, at least it can make Sevilla get additional points and be in the top eleven at the top of the standings. Luckily, Sevilla managed to score a goal in the final minutes of the match thanks to a kick from Lucas Ocampos .

The match was equal. The statistic is not showing is there was a club who has been dominating the match. We must take a look at how the match almost ended with a draw as the result, but Sevilla was fortunately awarded a penalty at the end of the match.
There's no something special in this match. The ball is always in the middle. There were no any efforts from both of teams to win the match. Sevilla would have also ended with zero shot on target.
The match was very boring. I were watching the first leg but since either of clubs sevilla and athletic clubs are not giving the best effort to create the goal and i stop to watch the second leg.
It's not caused by luck and the match will be ended with the draw as the result.

Football is full of surprises, and nothing appears impossible in it, but in this instance, it is utterly impossible for Real Madrid fans to imagine topping Barcelona in the few matches left in the Laliga table. A three-win match from Barcelona in their few remaining matches to be played will hand the Laliga trophy to Barcelona. 90% of Barcelona fans have given up on Barcelona winning the Laliga title just based on that knowledge. The champions league or Copa Del Rey is what the fans and players are competing and hoping for.

[shinratensei_]

Nothing special for this matchday (31) Real madrid and barcelona were losing together against the weak teams while at the same time athletico madrid is creeping up. it has only two points gap to the real madrid right now.
Athletico madrid may be able to take over madrid's position as soon as possible. It's caused by madrid still inconsistently winning and losing in any matches.

The next match day will not be so difficult for athletico madrid and real madrid caused by these clubs will be facing weak teams.
Barcelona will be facing betis soon. barcelona had very good record against betis. I think that betis gonna be beaten by barcelonia easily.

I think there is nothing wrong with Barcelona, which this season has started to be close to winning in La Liga, because apart from having to be realistic for every fan of each team, fans also have to see how the team they like is currently in and focus on applied by the team in any competition. Because the fans of the Barcelona team are also very sincere when they see Barcelona eliminated from the Champions League and Europa League this season and that is also part of a realistic attitude.

I also bet on Villarreal in this match. And I also have no doubts about my bet. but yeah things were a bit tense when the score was still the same until the 79th minute. but a goal by N. Jackson in the 80th minute really changed everything in that match. and even Villarreal became more aggressive at the end of the match and managed to score again. but I honestly admit that Espanyol played better than I expected. but they were caught off guard at the end of the game. And now Espanyol must be willing to be in the relegation zone. but the tough competition to avoid the relegation zone still continues. and yeah, as you said, Espanyol still has a chance to get out of the relegation zone.

At Estadio de la Cerámica, Villarreal defeats Espanyol in a dramatic victory. We identified a lot of frantic play from both teams during pivotal passes. The goalkeeper for Espanyol, Pacheco, saved the majority of the amazing goal efforts made by the yellow submarine, which controlled every area. ten successful saves, including one to stop a Parejo penalty in the second half. With a cumulative rating of 8.5, the goalkeeper in the game is deserving of glowing reviews. His rating is practically identical to Capoue's. Villarreal is striving to earn a spot in the UCL for the upcoming season while the Budgerigars are still in the relegation zone.

The Bilbao vs Sevilla match was one of the boring matches and went very badly, Bilbao didn't play like they wanted to get their 3 points like they felt enough with 1 point because there wasn't a good attack they could create.
Betting on Bilbao to win when the match starts in the second half because as the host will be motivated to win, especially the opponent is not a team that is in good form, but even at normal time there are no shots from the two teams that can be on target, finally defeat happened in injury time.
Sevilla really benefited from the penalty prize they got, so they were able to win this match. It was too late for Bilbao to attack in order to make the match end in a draw because their attacks were even more disorganized.
The success of winning 3 points pushed Sevilla's ranking quite far up and Bilbao lost the opportunity to level the points with Betis, in order to open up opportunities to play in Europe next season.
