La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Falconer]

-snip-

Last season Real Madrid performed very poorly in La Liga which was never expected. I think one of the reasons for this is that they focused so much on the Champions League that they didn't pay much attention to LaLiga. However, from the beginning of this season, Real Madrid can be expected to play very seriously in La Liga.

Real Madrid's concentration in La Liga last season was not divided just because of the Champions League, but you may need to admit or realize that a team like Barcelona really has good speed and is consistent in winning points in many matches. Barcelona, ​​which in fact has been playing well, managed to lead the La Liga standings until the end of the season, while Real Madrid had to reap failures due to inconsistent performance and match results.

I hope Real Madrid will be different next season and not let Barcelona repeat the same success as last season. I know Real Madrid have lost Benzema, but another player would be a worthy patch to keep our chances of winning the title alive.

This is so true. They gave up on La Liga very early in the season. You could tell that even in seemingly easy games it is going to be hard for them because they don't put in all the effort anymore. But it is also a lesson I think that teams shouldn't start to distinguish too early in a season between the various competitions they are playing. They think they can just switch between the games from 80% to 100%, but that doesn't work out all the time. But it would also be wrong to be too harsh with them as they lost against Manchester City and not some second tier team. Even at 100% Real Madrid wouldn't have had a chance last season.

Of course they have to be careful not to make too many mistakes which could result in losing their concentration in the next season. I think Real Madrid have to go more aggressively from the start of the season to increase their confidence in winning the Laliga Trophy next season.

It seems that some of their core players, such as Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, will not be able to make much of a big contribution to Real Madrid next season due to their declining energy due to old age. So that the players who were brought in in this transfer market are expected to be able to provide bigger things to help the team achieve their targets next season.

Bad news for Real Madrid after new signing Arda Guler can't make debut yet after confirming with knee injury, actually Arda Guran has promising and impressive performance during pre season training but he was absent on two pre season matches against AC Milan and Manchester United. Seems not confirmed yet with Arda Guler in starting line up against Barcelona on next pre season match will play few hours later.

He is very young and a great talent already, it will be bad for his career if he is injury prone because if he is, it means that we may never see him achieve his full potential because of the regular injuries he will be sustaining, and he will not be consistent in a season. I was hoping to see him play same games before the season starts, but for the now, watching Jude Bellingham will be okay. In their friendly game against against Barcelona, if Bellingham scores, or Joselu scores too, Real Madrid serious supporters will be happy and know that they have signed the right people.

Last season Real Madrid performed very poorly in La Liga which was never expected. I think one of the reasons for this is that they focused so much on the Champions League that they didn't pay much attention to LaLiga. However, from the beginning of this season, Real Madrid can be expected to play very seriously in La Liga.

Even if your assumptions are correct, I don't think Real Madrid would be that stupid in taking their chances. Real Madrid's poor performance in La Liga is not because they are focused on the Champions League, but they have disappointed too many times when they did not have Benzema in their squad due to injury. Benzema is an important player at Real Madrid, it has obviously had a lot of impact on Real Madrid's win ratio, so the dependence on Benzema has cost them last season.

Real Madrid is also not too bad in terms of performance, but the La Liga team continues to try to give their best to win points even when the opponent is Real Madrid. Barcelona on the other hand took advantage of Real Madrid's situation to win points consistently, in fact they have been named favorites since the start of last season so that in the end the title was won.

Barcelona was in a comfy situation last season because everyone could see that Real Madrid wasn't pushing for the title anymore. That was the perfect condition for Barcelona with their stable defense and knowing that they could make mistakes and won't get punished because Real Madrid loses their games as well if they had lost their game. That is something that is not worthy of the fight between the two top teams in La Liga. They must want the title again and this is why new players can be very important for setting new goals as well. Bellingham wants it, he really wants it. And although I appreciate players like Kroos and Modric, how much do they care when they don't win the La Liga title? I think they do care, but do they care as much as when they were 25?

[Issa56]

Yes, that's true, but when we meet in the Champions League later, I'm still sure that Manchester United can still give a draw against Real Madrid, so it might make it difficult for Real Madrid to win like this pre-season game.

That’s if only Manchester United can make it to the knockout stages because I don’t think they can make it that far if they find themselves in a strong group with two strong teams it maybe difficult to survive. Manchester United are not a bad side, they have quality players and a very good coach but facing Real Madrid in the champions league maybe a difficult task because madrid are the king of the champions league they know how to play the league and they now have a strong team compared to last season. If Mbappe should join them this summer they will even be more deadly side to face.

[AakZaki]

Mbappe's story is still a hot topic, currently PSG are pushing Mbappe to leave immediately at the agreed price. It's like a Movie that still continues to have Episodes that won't run out. But PSG's problem is that Mbappe only wants to go to Real Madrid. Meanwhile, until now Real Madrid have not made a formal offer to PSG. In fact, I read in the local media, Real Madrid only dared to bid 225 million Euros.

[Leviathan.007]

The sad news for Real Madrid is that Arda Güler got injured hardly and this Turkish player had to leave the summer camp before it ends, It seems was don't a lucky player in Real Madrid because he got injured while they are going to face Barcelona soon in a friendly match which can be important for a young player like Güler to play in this game but e will be absent in this match. 

[Docnaster]

After failing to make his debut in the first game of pre-season due to discomfort in one of his legs, it is now reported that Arda Guler has returned to Madrid to make a quicker recovery and the diagnosis says that he has a meniscus injury. Maybe no one thought that Arda Guler had to deal with injuries early and even though he was scheduled to play against Juventus in the pre-season match later.

But it looks like the player's health comes first and he will therefore have to leave the pre-season camp early. Well, we hope for the best for the recovery of this talented wonderkid from Turkey and in the early matches of the La Liga season he will be able to start playing again.

I don't think that Arda Guler is under any pressure to deliver top football performances for Real Madrid at the moment and despite all the pressure from fans of  the club, he'll still be allowed and cared for to heal from his injury.
Reports has it that he's left Real Madrid's preseason squad and has gone back to the Spanish capital to get treated

[Velvet78]

It is really unfortunate for Arda Guler to have no choice other than returning to Madrid early. Because due to his injury he will miss pre-season games and will have to work much harder to reach the level of the others later. He is a really talented player of course so I believe in him to work hard for that.

Because he didn't want to leave Real Madrid for a different team on loan. He wanted to stay and fight for his place in the team. This must be a positive sign about him to be a hardworking player. Kroos also said that he believes Arda has a really nice talent.

[Doell]

Always to be hot topic PSG pushing Mbappe maybe I think because of his big salary at there, also to recruit new players PSG may need other funds. Although they have a lot of money but maybe they don't want spend a lot more money again, I mean to recruit new players. If that news is true then 225 million Euro is already a good offer in my opinion, also Mbappe will probably accept it because that man just wants join Real Madrid to fulfill his dream to get a lot of achievement.

I think one of the reasons for this is that they focused so much on the Champions League that they didn't pay much attention to LaLiga. However, from the beginning of this season, Real Madrid can be expected to play very seriously in La Liga.

Of course, this season Real Madrid will not make mistakes like last season, they learn from mistakes. Real Madrid will be perfect if they succeed in signing Mbappe, Carlo Ancelotti needs a striker who is hungry for goals to win many titles this season. He asked the management of the Real Madrid team to bring him from PSG even though he had to spend the available transfer funds to smooth out his noble steps to win Laliga and the Champions League.

Mbappe will complete the attack line by accompanying Vinicius Jr and Rodrigo Goes, as well as Jude Bellingham who will accompany Brahim Diaz who is a local talent who can later become Real Madrid's King of Goals such as Raul Gonzalez. Aurelien Tchouameni, and Eduardo Camavinga (which happens to be a sensational midfielder duo from France), and Thibaut Courtois is also ready to lead the defense where he is ready to accompany Anthony Rudiger, Eder Militao and David Alaba.

This means that Real Madrid's line-up has been neatly arranged with 3 in defense and attackers and 4 in midfield who are ready to compete with attackers who are no less great to be able to win all domestic and European titles. at the end of the season.

By the way, yes, Paris Saint-Germain dug a hole for themselves with their financial flirtations with Mbappe, and if the amount of 225 million euros is correct, then this is a very good option for the club to part with the footballer avoiding larger losses. And by the way, after all the actions that Mbappe and his family have taken, I much less believe that Mbappe is now able to have a dream   Money is his main dream now

[X-ray]

Barcelona was losing against real madrid. It surprises me to see how barcelona humiliated real madrid with 3-0 as the final scores. It seems like that if arsenal is far stronger compared with real madrid at this moment. The quality will never lie. Madrid needs to solve all of its problems.

The new players do nothing when it was facing barcelona while arsenal was able scoring so many goals against barcelona. It seems like that the quality from real madrid is still far below arsenal at this moment.

Real Madrid's performance was terrible in the friendly match, showing that Barcelona has a stronger squad.

Im very disappointed with the performance from real madrid players.  3-0 is a big scores.

[SeriouslyGiveaway]

Real Madrid's performance was terrible in the friendly match, showing that Barcelona has a stronger squad.

This is just a friendly match, with no reward or punishment, and it's mainly for testing the squad's purpose. Therefore, we can't evaluate whether Real Madrid's squad is weaker than Barcelona. It requires a longer period of time in the official season to make a proper evaluation.

It is said that Real Madrid made a transfer offer of 230 million euros for Kylian Mbappe. If Paris SG does not accept this offer, Mbappe will go down in history as a bad transfer policy for them. The money offered by Real Madrid should be the maximum transfer fee to a player scheduled to join the team for free next year.

Barcelona might be facing some financial difficulties, having limits of signing expensive players. However, this doesn't mean that they cannot defeat Real Madrid. Though this is a friendly match, it's demonstrated that Barcelona is well prepared to face in this season. I've noticed that Ferran Torres has significantly improved his game. Fermin also delivered an outstanding performance, and I'm looking forward to see more of his skills throughout this season.

This defeat needs to be evaluated by Real Madrid to improve the quality of its squad. Yes, this is just a friendly match, there is nothing up for grabs in this game. Ancelotti and Xavi have both fielded the best line-up since the start of the match, although there is nothing up for grabs in this game, the quality of the team is of course something of value to the coach.
Barcelona performed better than Real Madrid, they are more prepared for the new season with a squad that has been formed. While Real Madrid are still having trouble scoring goals, this weakness needs to be anticipated by Ancelotti to maintain the sharpness of the front lines to increase the productivity of their goals.

Well, in fact Barcelona already had these financial problems at the beginning of last season and ended up winning the league. Winning the league did not get them out of trouble, but at least it did not force them to become a SAD (Sociedad Anónima Deportiva).

Regarding the friendly I wouldn't give it too much importance, the teams are not ready yet and the coaches usually try with substitutes. What matters are the results of official competitions, not this type of match, which is why they are called friendlies.

[Raflesia]

I feel just the opposite.
There are more important things than just friendship when it comes to El Clasico because matches like this are always full of prestige.
I think we know how the tension and rivalry is when these two clubs play so I don't think there's anything to be relaxed about because egos and prestige are obviously bigger.

Even though this match will not mean anything and will not prove that they are the strongest in the next season, losing to rivals is something that is highly avoided in order to maintain the prestige that has long existed.
The match starts tomorrow and I think it will be an interesting first El clasico of the new season.

This El Clasico will be proof for both teams to welcome next season where the two coaches will try to compete against each other in today's game. I believe the tension of the game will spur on a match full of prestige in today's match. Most likely both squads will come down with the perfect squad to test their strength in today's game.

In the previous match Barcelona suffered defeat against Arsenal and for Real madrid they were able to win the 2 matches they had played. Statistically, it is very likely that Real Madrid will be able to maintain their winning streak in trial matches in today match. I think Real madrid will win today's match by a thin score.

The match was over and I wasn't really expecting the result
3-0 was really a massacre for the first match after their long break from rivalry matches.
Madrid's possession and chances were actually very good and I like the way they direct the ball, it's just that they really messed up towards the end of the second half.
Even if it's a friendly match this therapy should be taken into consideration by Ancelotti to improve their squad because if this goes on I think the same results as last season will continue to happen.
There is still 1 more match for Madrid in their remaining friendlies, hopefully there is something interesting and Ancelotti's scheme is not monotonous considering the formation in the last few matches has always been the same.
