La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

Jude Bellingham not only quit well performance on attacking line position but also he has good contribution in defensive position, have played four matches with Real Madrid, Jude Bellingham most active on all area from attacking line until defending line and he always consistency scoring every one goals on every match. Last match, Jude Bellingham played together with Luka Modric where usually Carlo Ancelotti not giving regular position for Modric, but there are not problem fro Jude Bellingham have to play as second striker or some time he play as attacking midfielder. I think Jude Bellingham is most completed players for Real Madrid after 5 goals contributing in last 4 matches and he has brilliant performance helped defensive area.

In my opinion, Real Madrid shouldn't be too complacent with Jude Bellingham, because he certainly won't always score goals in every game, especially since his position is not as a striker or winger and Real Madrid should still need pure numbers. 9. But Perez has also not played in the closed summer transfer market, even though Dusan Vlahovic is the easiest to get.

Indeed, in four matches Jude Bellingham has always appeared consistently and always scored goals, but Real Madrid's situation is not certain. because Real Madrid always wins in difficult games. Besides that, Real Madrid doesn't have a great striker like KB9. Plus the rhythm machine Vinicius junior was injured and Rodrygo was inconsistent. Real Madrid's peak achievement is not just 3 points, but the Champions League and La Liga trophies. And there are a lot of big teams that are in consistent form.

Now that's not important in my opinion because regardless of what Perez and Ancelotti have made the choice of not bringing in any new players for Madrid so with this they have to work on how to maximize their players because currently they also have some good young players like Vini and Rodrygo. Apart from that, regarding striker problems, they will probably continue to trust Joselu as an option if young players such as Vini, Rodrygo and Jude experience deadlock.
What they have to think about is a new scheme as a backup for 2 strikers and 1 second striker because if this continues to be used, it is possible that the longer it goes on, the more gaps there will be in this scheme, so Ancelotti needs to prepare it from now so that when the 4-3-1-2 stuck they can still try with other schemes.

Well, the games of this round are over, today Barcelona played against Osasuna, it was a game in which Barcelona from the beginning were the favorites to win the game. but it was not an easy game for barcelona as they scored the first goal in the 1st half but saw their opponent score an equalizer in the 2nd half and with that the game was tied, until the 84th minute one of the opposing players received a red card and with that Barcelona had the advantage of having 11 players against the opponent's 10 players and Barcelona also benefited from a penalty and scored a goal

it was once again clear that there is a lack of more experienced strikers and for that reason I think that Barcelona did very well in bringing in Jao Felix and other players to improve the attack, I think it is clear to me that Barcelona's objective this season is to get far into the European champions league because with that they will be able to earn money that will be of great help for the team to start recovering financially.

real madrid played yesterday against getafe, it was a game in which the bookmakers placed real madrid as the favorite and with odds of 1.39 which honestly proved on the field that the great favoritism that the bookmakers were giving was exaggerated , real madrid without a good striker like benzema is counting a lot on luck, i don't see them going very far in the european champions league, in 4 games joselu only scored 1 goal, in 4 games rodrygo only scored 1 goal so this shows that real madrid's attackers are very weak, so far Bellingham, who is average, is saving the team

[Raflesia]

After such a good start in first two games , Valencia had 2 defeats in a row and the hype around this season is kinda gone for them . I mean , sure , they do have young talented players who could put out magical performances and win you a game but they need a lot more experience in order to do so in all games.

Maybe next week against ATL.Madrid they will get at least 1 point because victory is really hard to achieve against Simeone...we all know this.

Valencia is still a little troubled with their performance because looking at the 2 matches they won in the first 2 matches it was really a narrow victory and when they were unable to score a goal then the defeat was sure to happen.
Next week against Atletico is one of Valencia's most difficult matches even looking at the opponents they have faced before this week 5 is their first match against a big club.

With H2H in Atletico's favour I think Atletico must be favourites and this is a test for Valencia because if they lose this match again then they will find it increasingly difficult to rise just like the previous season because they lost too much they became demoralised and their mentality dropped dramatically.

[ShowOff]

If Barcelona get to play against teams like Madrid with what I'm seeing I think they won't survive Real Madrid, if they can't beat Osasuna then it will be hard for them this season.

Things can change from one game to the next. Barcelona wasn't very good in this match because I didn't see them playing calmly, but I believe El Clasico is a very different match. I can expect Barcelona to be able to beat Real Madrid this season even though Real Madrid has been in top form so far, but that could change for many reasons.

I'm just worried if some of Barcelona's important players get injured, that would obviously be very disturbing. After all, Barcelona have gained additional strength in defense where they managed to bring in Cancelo, they also have Joao Felix, both of whom can be expected to contribute to better gameplay. In the end I'm not too worried about Barcelona, ​​at least not now.

[RockBell]

I'm not finding anything too serious with this Barcelona team any more, a match you think they'd win easily is the match they'll struggle to win. I was trying to see something special from this young lads but they're not leaving up to expectations with the manager who have so much hope and think he could bring back those glorious days but the reverse is the case.
 I think Lewandowski is losing his scoring form with him missing a penalty at this crucial time would be worrisome, is age catching up with him or what. If Barcelona get to play against teams like Madrid with what I'm seeing I think they won't survive Real Madrid, if they can't beat Osasuna then it will be hard for them this season.

Barcelona heat is already getting cold and their display is no longer getting interesting, sometimes They usually underestimate the capacity of their opponent and when it happens like that, you see them struggling to win and things like this don't only happen to Barcelona alone but also some other clubs. Lewandowski needs more players to support him for his performance to be installed just like before, and in football ball, you can be the best forever and age is contributing but at least they won.

Real Madrid did a good job signing Bellingham who saved them almost in all their games. Getafe was about to get a point from them and hopefully Bellingham was able to score in extra time. Real Madrid need someone to replace Bellingham in case of injury for real.

Exactly, Real Madrid's purchase of Bellingham is truly satisfying. It was not in vain that Real Madrid spent a lot of money to bring in Bellingham. At first it was doubtful that he could quickly make Real Madrid strong, especially to replace Benzema. However, it turns out that so far, his performance has been very convincing, and he can immediately work together very well and solidly within the team. in fact, he always contributes to goals in every match. Indeed, it might be too early to judge his performance while at Real Madrid. But at least, he is starting to see his contribution to the club getting better, and the hope is that he can really strengthen Real Madrid, which in fact really needs sharp forward players.

[Mame89]

Now that's not important in my opinion because regardless of what Perez and Ancelotti have made the choice of not bringing in any new players for Madrid so with this they have to work on how to maximize their players because currently they also have some good young players like Vini and Rodrygo. Apart from that, regarding striker problems, they will probably continue to trust Joselu as an option if young players such as Vini, Rodrygo and Jude experience deadlock.
What they have to think about is a new scheme as a backup for 2 strikers and 1 second striker because if this continues to be used, it is possible that the longer it goes on, the more gaps there will be in this scheme, so Ancelotti needs to prepare it from now so that when the 4-3-1-2 stuck they can still try with other schemes.

Indeed, Madrid failed to bring in a classy striker, but this does not rule out the possibility that Madrid can get through this season with the many trophies they get at the end of the season. Moreover, Real Madrid has brought in an attacking option, namely Joselu, he just scored his first goal against Getafe. If we talk about the facts, the Madrid squad is already in a complex state, it's just that many of them are injured, I'm sure that if they recover, Madrid's strength will be perfect. Real Madrid also has a young striker, Endrick, who will be able to join next year. He is predicted to be the future striker for Real Madrid.

In that sense, Jude is the complete package, of course the 4-3-1-2 formation is very suitable for Real Madrid with Jude as playmaker. So far I have seen him very graceful in the eyes. Going through every match consistently, the best mentality is what defines his aura. His commitment to the game is aesthetically pleasing. He ensured that his aura would be replicated in Madrid's historical records. I'm just out of words. All I wanted was to see Jude break records for fun.

It's not the best comparison though. Playing against Osasuna and Real Madrid are completely different things.
I didn't like how Barca played today. They should've been more productive. Lewa doesn't look like he's concentrated in the games this season. The red card and penalty saved them. It could've been unnecessary two points loss. Xavi should use international break to fix problems.

[nurilham]

One thing that is way too obvious for Real is that they needed a striker. It is not going to cut it to go with Joselu in many games, and even though he scored one goal, it wasn't really a big deal, it was a free goal basically, he is just not good enough for Real Madrid level.

Indeed. Real Madrid is in urgent to sign a top striker. So far, Real Madrid still can rely on Bellingham for scoring goals because they still don't play against strong teams. The situation may be different when Real Madrid will play in El Classico (against Barcelona) or against strong teams in UCL. In the last El Classico, Bellingham couldn't score goals and Real Madrid was defeated by Barcelona. This can happen again because Barcelona knows how to stop Bellingham. They know stopping him from scoring is the way to defeat Real Madrid.

Regarding Joselu, it is not so different like Bellingham. I don't think Joselu has proven himself as a suitable striker for Real Madrid. He only can score in the match against small team, he still can't score against a strong team like Barcelona.

Everyone praises how Jude is scoring so many goals, which is true and he should be praised for sure but nobody questions why he is the one that scores so many goals, he is not even the striker for that team, put him at the striker position and he would be better than anyone else they have at striker that's why. This is a problem and I bet that it will cause some trouble for them without a doubt. I think it is quite important to make it work one way or another.

Bellingham isn't positioned as a striker, he is an attacking midfielder. Actually, we can't rely on Bellingham only for scoring goals. It is not his ideal position, he may get difficulty when it is in a big match.

In fact, it was a difficult game for Barcelona. I don't see Barcelona winning this game easily even though they have a quality squad. Lewandowski and company failed to take advantage of many opportunities throughout the match, but their hard work yielded positive results. Even though Barcelona controlled the game, Osasuna, who appeared at home, was really able to pose a threat to Barcelona's defense. But unfortunately, they were unable to beat Barcelona who then took the lead after Lewandowski's penalty.

Something special in this match is that Joao Cancelo and Joao Felix have made their debut. Even though they didn't play fully from the first half, this victory was expected. A sweet debut for both because Barcelona won, but Barcelona really struggled to break into the Osasuna defense today.

Barcelona managed to secure full points in this match even though they faced tough resistance from the host. Osasuna was able to fire a lot of shots in this match but unfortunately many shots were far off the mark. Barcelona was favored enough before the match started and in fact the bettors were able to make an advantage in this match. Indeed, the course of the match Osasuna was able to apply some pressure which was quite difficult for the Barcelona defense area and of course it was a pretty good start for Osasuna. But Barcelona is not an easy opponent for them to beat because in this match Barcelona played with their best squad.

I think it's quite a dramatic victory and deserves to be greeted with joy by the fans. An additional 3 points reopened the opportunity for Barcelona to continue to stick to Real Madrid on the standings. Currently, Barcelona and Girona collected 10 point and these two teams are 2 points adrift of the leaders.

[Velvet78]

The penalty and the red card made things much better for Barcelona to win against Osasuna. However the second half performance of the team was really horrible. I mean there was a dominance in ball possession as usual but there was only one goal attempt. If it weren't for that penalty maybe they weren't going to score the winning goal.

But I still want to understand this because of Osasuna's not being an easy opponent. Still Barcelona should have had more goal attempts than that. In the end there is still a big quality gap. It was nice to see Lewandowski scoring another goal and hopefully he can be better in time.

[JeromeTash]

Real Madrid did a good job signing Bellingham who saved them almost in all their games. Getafe was about to get a point from them and hopefully Bellingham was able to score in extra time. Real Madrid need someone to replace Bellingham in case of injury for real.

What you are indirectly saying is Real Madrid need a top class Centre forward. Bellingham is not a center forward and without him or his instincts, Real Madrid would have lost a number of points by now.

A whole season awaits. Will Real Madrid make it through to the top at the end? Time will tell.

[militiariko]

I think the Barcelona problem is creativity related; and with recent injuries to talisman; it is becoming difficult for Xavi guys to create more chances for Lewandoski. With Cancelo at the helm of affairs'; their performances will only improve. I won't blame Lewandoski solely because he isn't getting any creativity or chances until Cancelo first cross today. It will definitely get better for Barcelona.

Barcelona of a truth won their Spanish La Liga match against Osasuna tonight and took home all three points from the game but I think they weren't convincing with their performance tonight and if not for Alejandro Catena's in 84th minute of the game, the result of the game would've been different from what we saw.
If Barcelona plays against big team who are good in converting their chances like they played against Osasuna, they'll be thrashed by such club. Xavi Hernandez must improve his team's performance if he really want to have a good season with his Barcelona set up

I mean there was a dominance in ball possession as usual but there was only one goal attempt. If it weren't for that penalty maybe they weren't going to score the winning goal.

Impossible for barcelona to get full points without getting a penalty as a reward from the red card. Lewandowski has been successfully executing it. Osassuna has a solid defensive line. Barcelona feels so hard in breaking the osassuna's defensive line.
Osassuna was not playing as good as barcelona but it has almost the same goal attempts like barcelona. I must say barcelona is still having its defensive line as the main problem. Counter attack is again become the main weakness of barcelona.

But I still want to understand this because of Osasuna's not being an easy opponent. Still Barcelona should have had more goal attempts than that. In the end there is still a big quality gap. It was nice to see Lewandowski scoring another goal and hopefully he can be better in time.

Osassuna was always a strong opponent for barcelona. The gap between barcelona and osassuna in term of quality was very big but i remind you if osassuna was almost stealing points from barcelona if its player didnt make unnecessary foul that result a red card for osassuna.
GGWP for barcelona. Lewandowski is again putting his name on the score board.

Bellingham is the best recruitment made by Real Madrid in this transfer window because Bellingham has made a big contribution in consecutive Laliga matches by scoring goals and leading Real Madrid to victory. I think he is one of the most influential players in Real Madrid's game this season.

Vinicius' injury was a big obstacle for Real Madrid but with Bellingham it wasn't a big problem because he managed to build a big change in every match he played. For now he is in top 1 as the best midfielder owned by real madrid.

Can Barcelona defend its title this season?
Yes, we are witnessing the hard struggle of the La Liga champions. Barcelona could only win all 3 points against home team Osasuna thanks to a penalty. I wonder how they can play poorly when they have a perfect squad in every position. But no matter what, Xavi and his team won 3 points to continue chasing their great rival Real Madrid on the La Liga rankings this season.

Xavi Hernandez fighting to meetup his early priorities this season, there's absolutely no time for reluctance performances. This is the time for the blaugrana to put in everything in their forthcoming games, because Real Madrid are not backing down, ready to push up their game to the next level. Barcelona are definitely going to defend their La Liga title this season, it's going to be really tough competition between Real Madrid and them. Regarding yesterday's game for the  blaugrana, everything planned out really good. Osasuna were obviously fighting for a draw tie in Estadio El Sadar but it was too late because they made a big mistake by recording on a red card from the referee, Ortiz Arias Miguel Angel.

It is a hard question and Barcelona will have bigger challenge from Real Madrid than in the past season. Real Madrid bought some players in the summer and most noticeable Jude Bellingham who has been performing so outstanding for them. Scoring five goals so far for Real Madrid is a very impressive stats from the English midfielder and it looks more similar to a stat for a striker.

Barcelona are not in their best form and their striker Lewandowski still have troubles in early matches. He has yet warmed up enough but we must know that in this season, Lewandowski is one more year older than the past one. Barcelona and Xavi will have to prepare for decreasing performance of Lewandowski in this season or next one or two seasons.
