La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[shinratensei_]

-snip-

This is likely to be Ancelotti's last season with Real Madrid. He is not interested in extending his contract with Madrid. However, his opinion may change in the future. However, there are still rumors that Ancelotti will not be with Madrid next season. So he will try his best to win the La Liga title this season. He is trying to make the Madrid squad more stable and strong. I also heard that Real Madrid will make a last-ditch effort to add Mbappe to the squad as well.

Basically those are the rumors I least want to hear, meaning I still really hope Ancelotti stays at Real Madrid for many seasons to come. He might be coaching the national team, Brazil is a national team that really expects his services.

I don't think if it's a rumor. Brazilian alreadt confirmed if ancellotti said to agree with the offer from braziliian national club to be a new coach. It's likely ancellotti will not stay for another season in real madrid. Ancellotti has become one of best coach in the world.
Hoping him to stay much longer im madrid is far from being a real thing. Much news has confirmed this and i think that this is the last season for him in real madrid. That's why he is willing to give everything for real madrid before he will leaves from the club this season.
Let's see what decision taken by him but i think that the chance for him to stay is small.

I absolutely agree that Ancelotti will make the most of this season to win titles. We lost the La Liga title and the Champions League next season so I hope they will really improve this season. Kylian Mbappe deserves it, but I hope he doesn't come in a bad way. To be honest that I was looking forward to it for real.

I hope so but let's see how consistent real madrid is. Madrid has been showing excelent performance during early till mid of season. It plunges when the season was coming to the end of season.
Mbappe is still far away in joining real madrid. Madrid is not even seeing him as a worthy player to be bought by the club. He may bring bad impact on the dressing room.

[Razmirraz]

Thibaut Courtois must accept to undergo the recovery process from the injury he got while playing, Real Madrid will not be looking for a new goalkeeper because it seems that Real Madrid's financial condition is not good so when he buys a new goalkeeper it will worsen Real Madrid's finances, So far there are still Kepa Arrizabalaga, Andriy Lunin and Lucas Cañizares who might be able to replace the position of Real Madrid goalkeeper.

I don't believe that Madrid is experiencing financial problems because looking at Madrid's balance sheet report every season they always get a profit in the midst of other clubs experiencing problems due to Covid so that financial problems are quite funny for Madrid.

The reason they borrowed Kepa I think was not about financial conditions but they held back the minimum because they also knew that Courtois would definitely recover and after he returned then Kepa was also not really needed so borrowing 1 season was better than a purchase contract for a period of several seasons.

Besides that, I still feel that the reason they are minimizing is because they are holding back for long-term plans especially about the Mbappe rumors so they are thinking of the right way besides avoiding FFP they also have their own plans about this.

The reason Real Madrid borrowed Kepa Arrizabalaga was not because of financial conditions, they refrained from spending money at an unplanned post. Real Madrid has spent a lot of money in the transfer market, one of which was to bring in Bellingham for a transfer fee of € 103 million.
Real Madrid still has cash that can be used to bring in new players, the funds that have been prepared are not to bring in new goalkeepers, but to look for quality strikers if needed.

Courtois will return soon after undergoing treatment, Ancelotti can still rely on the goalkeeper he currently has. Real Madrid prefers to save their money in order to bring in Mbappe because Perez really wants him to join the Real Madrid squad.

[Litzki1990]

Kepa current status may be that he is a keeper on loan, but if we look at Courtouis condition, the injury is very fatal and the contract in Madrid will not be renewed automatically, in my opinion, Kepa has the potential to make it permanent in any way. Courtouis, Modric, and Kross both have contracts ending next year, so it makes sense that Ancelotti is gradually starting to prepare Madrid's foundations. Rodrygo. Because if the vacancy problem is resolved, Madrid has returned with a formation that can worry the opponent's defense.

Thibaut Courtois must accept to undergo the recovery process from the injury he got while playing, Real Madrid will not be looking for a new goalkeeper because it seems that Real Madrid's financial condition is not good so when he buys a new goalkeeper it will worsen Real Madrid's finances, So far there are still Kepa Arrizabalaga, Andriy Lunin and Lucas Cañizares who might be able to replace the position of Real Madrid goalkeeper.

Real Madrid do not want to spend money on a goalkeeper at the moment as they may have to spend a lot of money next season. Real Madrid has a big chance of signing Mbappe next season, so Real Madrid must have enough money to complete the deal with Mbappe. In the absence of Thibaut Courtois, Real Madrid already have a number of goalkeepers, and with Real Madrid bringing in Kepa Arrizabalaga from Chelsea on a season-long loan, it doesn't make sense to spend extravagantly on a goalkeeper at the moment. If Kepa Arrizabalaga is not injured, he will be seen as the main goalkeeper for Real Madrid throughout the season.

however, Madrid competed in the Champions League and La Liga. This game has a fairly tight intensity. although it will not have much effect on the goalkeeper, Madrid with the arrival of Kepa Arrizabalaga will strengthen Madrid's last line of defense.
we'll see how he looks at his debut later. Ancelotti must be thinking big things by signing him. not only to back up Thibaut Courtois, who had to be absent for a long time.

Elite clubs will compete with strong hand this season. Real Madrid is an elite team, they have the capacity to grab any player that's table on the market. Talking about spending their estimated budgets on players this season is balanced, they keep track on every player in the team, moving to a more crucial point. Perhaps Carlo Ancelotti looking for options to explore this season, their top choice was injured but instead of signing a permanent signing, they signed a temporary backup goalkeeper on loan this summer, inother to fixed the goalkeeping challenges.

If Kepa Arrizabalaga is not injured, he will be seen as the main goalkeeper for Real Madrid throughout the season.

Why should Real Madrid sign Mbappe next season and prepare money to take him to the Santiago Bernabeu? because if they want Real Madrid to sign him this season, they only hope to get the Frenchman for free because next season his contract runs out at PSG, there are indeed continued talks about his fate at PSG with a clause that he can leave next season, but everything can change including Mbappe changing his mind.
Real Madrid were supposed to buy Mbappe this season at a price set by PSG but it wasn't done and I think it's not just about the high transfer fee that Madrid are considering but also the huge salary they have to pay every season for this player. PSG have given too much value to Mbappe so it will be difficult for any clubs to make him a player at that club.

It is rare for a goalkeeper to be valued at a high price, usually only attackers and midfielders are expensive, but Real Madrid can get Kepa on loan is very profitable for them because Kepa has enough experience at Chelsea and the Champions League title he got a few seasons ago only he was not as the main goalkeeper of chelsea at that time because Mendy was still Tuchel's first choice at that time.

Every madrid fans are aware of how incompetent lunin was. The main reason for ancelotti to sign kepa instead of use him as main goal keeper for real madrid. Madrid really needs a new goal keeper even though the club was only taking kepa as a loan from chelsea.
Signing kepa is also very important when lunin will be injured as well. Ancellotti is thinking one step ahead. That's why im feeling so happy once i heard that if madrid was signing kepa instead king of blunder (de gea).

De Gea has been expressing interest in joining Real Madrid, but Ancelotti considers him a poor goalkeeper who frequently made mistakes during his time at Manchester United.

It's a good signing from real madrid. kepa is also having his heart in real madrid. It may also boost his performance to perform better than last season with chelsea. Kepa is willing to stay in madrid and he needs work so hard to make madrid make him as permanent transfer.

I don't think, goalkeeper is the major challenge of Real Madrid in this season because their goalkeeper has dominated well in some matches they have played so far and there is a hope that the goalkeeper will help the team to play his role very well till the end of this tournament if their manager will give him the opportunity. Based on the rumors on ground show that PSG manager are about to agree for the price the Real Madrid manager budgeted to sign potential striker like kylian Mbappe, because Real Madrid are still experiencing some little challenge in the area of attack which they need to get it right before their 4th matches in this season.

[Wend]

I still appreciate Barcelona more than Madrid. Madrid this season proved weaker without striker Benzema. Right now, I don't see anyone who can replace him. Barcelona is showing strength when possessing a comprehensive attacking squad. As we have seen, friendly match between 2 teams. Barcelona easily beat Real Madrid.
This year's championship race will undoubtedly be easy for Barcelona. Real Madrid will have a hard time meeting a big team.

Do you really still take friendly matches seriously to this day? and with that victory immediately concluded that this season in La Liga Barcelona was able to beat Madrid in total and there were no opportunities to consider? objectivity in assessing is something you need to learn. I admit that Madrid is still in a transitional stage, do you know Barcelona transition process when Messi left? they fall and lose consecutively plus messy finances but struggle from the point where Xavi tries little by little? isn't that the process of defining a true transition?

Well, I'm a bit hasty to conclude that I didn't trust the young talents of Real Madrid. But if this transfer season ends, they are satisfied with this squad. I'm sure they will have a hard time against the big teams.
Barcelona's transformation when Messi left, they quickly recruited Lewandowski to fill that void. They cannot rely on young and immature players. Real Madrid will not be satisfied with the current attack. Kylian Mbappé will be the top target to help them conquer the arena. Help them not to appear inferior to big competitors.

It's a good signing from real madrid. kepa is also having his heart in real madrid. It may also boost his performance to perform better than last season with chelsea. Kepa is willing to stay in madrid and he needs work so hard to make madrid make him as permanent transfer.

Andriy Lunin have two appearance with Real Madrid, he has quit well performance although conceded one goal and last two games made several crucial save. I don't think for Real Madrid doubt with Andriy Lunin as main goal keeper, actually signing Kepa for replacing Thibaut Courtois must absent until one year later and Real Madrid get anticipation if main goal keeper get injury one day later. I don't think with Real Madrid fans aware after Carlo Ancelotti give Andriy Lunin chance to be main goals keeper, he has not really bad performance last two games with Real Madrid and he has potential to be main goal keeper one day later if loss Thibaut Courtois.

De Gea have rumor will join Real Madrid but Carlo Ancelotti seems not interested for signing him and prefer for get Kepa with loan option from Chelsea than signing De Gea with free agent.

Real Madrid don't have financial problems as rumor has it, it's a bit ridiculous about them. I haven't even heard of that rumor going around for the last few seasons so they can afford to buy their target player even at a very high price. Bellingham is the latest player to have a high transfer value for Real Madrid so I don't believe Real Madrid is currently in a bad financial condition.

I may agree that Real Madrid have no intention of looking for a replacement goalkeeper for Courtois, but his injury has forced Real Madrid to move to a short-term option where Kepa is the most worth it for their needs. Lunin is not as good as expected, so Kepa is expected to do much better this season.

yep, its true that goalkeepers do not really have an important role for Real Madrid but lets compare this time when the last friendly match Real Madrid tested the goalkeepers they currently have and when the goalkeeper was filled by Andriy Lunin Madrid appearance became more perfect and strong in defense but when Madrid use goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois they always fail and concede goals and we can see the difference in this from Real Madrid performance statistics in the past.

and I fully support your statement that Real Madrid has no difficulties for goalkeepers because they already have Lunin who has good talent as a goalkeeper and what Madrid is currently targeting or wanting is only a reliable striker who can strengthen the attack line and that player is Mbappe. I do not hope that Madrid have to get this player but if as long as Real Madrid puts pressure on PSG there is a very big chance of getting Mbappe next season.

Real Madrid never invest money in the wrong place in the transfer market. Financially speaking, Real Madrid is a very strong team, Real Madrid has made a profit on most of the transfers they have made so far. Real Madrid brought in one of the best goalkeepers from whom they have received good service for a long time, but unfortunately Thibaut Courtois, the main goalkeeper of Real Madrid, suffered a leg injury during training. His injury was so severe that he was out of action for a year. Real Madrid did not sign any new goalkeeper for this year but instead brought in Kepa Arrizabalaga on loan from Chelsea. I think this decision by Real Madrid is a very good one because they will get Thibaut Courtois after a year so why would they invest money behind a goalkeeper.

Let's see how Kepa at Real Madrid throughout this season, because if Kepa on the bench more often. Then, there seems to be no definite guarantee for Kepa to stay at Real Madrid. It seems, the experience that Kepa has also still does not guarantee Real Madrid is interested in playing Kepa in the main squad. Because so far, the fact is that Kepa has still not been played by Real Madrid, and Kepa has only been on the bench so far. Thus, if this season ends, it is certain that Kepa will return to Chelsea first. But yes, if then Real Madrid are still interested in signing him, then of course in the end Real Madrid will sign him too. But I think, a permanent transfer for Kepa is still not certain to happen.

The loss of Thibaut Courtouis was not critical for Real Madrid. Andrei Lunin shows himself perfectly on the goal defense. In addition, everyone is convinced that Real can be effective without Karim Benzema. Real Madrid has already played 2 matches in the Spanish championship. The team has shown itself perfectly on the background of not the strongest opponents. So most likely, Blancos will win today's match against Celta. Perhaps, the victory will not be easy, but they will take 3 points.

Real Madrid are playing against Celta Vigo away today. Honestly my expectations from this game are to see Real Madrid getting a decent win and both teams scoring at the same time. Considering their latest head-to-head games Celta Vigo were able to score a goal against them at least. I think they will manage to do it again.

However Real Madrid have made a really solid start to the new season. Therefore I think they would win this game one way or another still. Bellingham is in a great form so he would be the key player in this game again. I guess we would see a 4-3-1-2 formation again as well.

Goalkeepers are such an important player that's why when Thibaut Courtois was injured Real Madrid took swift steps to sign Kepa from Chelsea despite his loan status.
And regarding Mbappe I think it's a funny drama that doesn't end, the two teams won't reach an agreement because the supply and demand from these two teams are very far apart, PSG are offering very high prices and on the other hand Real Madrid don't want to buy him at that price. high because I know that Mbappe's contract at PSG only leaves 1 last season.
but it must be admitted that Real Madrid is currently in dire need of a striker, in the first 2 matches they clearly saw their shortcomings on the front lines.

Well, I'm a bit hasty to conclude that I didn't trust the young talents of Real Madrid. But if this transfer season ends, they are satisfied with this squad. I'm sure they will have a hard time against the big teams.

Real Madrid will not be satisfied with the current attack. Kylian Mbappé will be the top target to help them conquer the arena. Help them not to appear inferior to big competitors.

But so far Real Madrid's young players have been quite successful when they have been combined with existing senior players, in the last 2 seasons this team has been built by Carlo Ancelotti. think it's been pretty successful so far.
And indeed, for the striker position left by Benzema, so far there has been no equivalent player to cover it, Rodrygo, who was forced to play in that position, was not very effective in the last 2 matches.
Apart from Mbappe, I think Real Madrid really need to bring in a quality striker, be it Mbappe or someone else.

@Velvet78 Celta Vigo have started the season badly and thus we should not underestimate them because they could look to frustrate Real Madrid and earn precious points in the process. Also Bellingham is having a dream start and if he continues like this then Real Madrid can definitely compete for the title but since it’s just two matches we should wait and see how he progresses ahead as the season progresses.

Sevilla - Girona is a game which attracts my attention. Because Sevilla started the season really horrible. 2 losses in 2 games... I can understand the loss against Valencia because they got a red card in the game which changed the direction of the game. However I would have expected much more against Alaves.

There was no problem with being productive but the defending was very poor. This needs to change for Sevilla as soon as possible. They conceded 6 goals in 2 games already.

It is like there was a magic touch on Sevilla players before the beginning of the season and they are worse. Mendilibar should find a way to save them from this situation again like he did after he arrived last season. Hopefully Sevilla start to win as of this game.

Sevilla didn't improve much from last season so they got very disappointing results in the first 2 matches of the season, the match against Girona certainly won't be easy for them because Girona started this season very well, in 2 matches they are unbeaten, got 1 win and 1 draw.

This match will be played at home to Sevilla, they should indeed be able to use it to win, but to be honest personally I doubt that, and I suggest not betting on Sevilla's victory, it's quite risky.
