La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[skarais]

~~~

If there was confidence that Haaland would not go anywhere, then City probably would not seek to extend his contract with significantly increasing his salary, right? Why if there are still a few more years?
As for the Ballon d'Or, last season Haalnad broke some historical records, became the top scorer in the Premier League and the Champions League, but did not come close to receiving it 

Of course, Haaland can leave but that's why I say Haaland will not leave anytime soon because Manchester City have the power to extend his contract. Regarding the Ballon d'Or, of course Haaland can win it with Manchester City, even if he doesn't get it this season considering the competition between players. If Haaland is able to break many other records with Manchester City, I believe he will be able to win the award in his second season.

The defeat they experienced when they played against Atletico Madrid really damaged them, it was quite a strange defeat in my opinion because statistically Rayo Vallecano didn't play badly, they managed to control the ball and also had some pretty good attempts and their passing accuracy was better than Atletico, but their opponents were more effective when they had the ball, Atletico's attempts were maximized well, and a week later losing to Betis made them look even worse.
Rayo and Alaves beat each other in previous meetings, neither of them dominated, but as hosts, Rayo certainly doesn't want to lose and this will be a good opportunity for Rayo to get back 3 points and break the two consecutive bad results they have had.

basically when you have a week like that, it doesn't just stop there, and it carries on with you, all the players and staff must be thinking "how could we lose that badly" for weeks now and that's going to end up hurting them even more if they do not recover. We definitely need something that would be great but that doesn't mean that we like to do what what we like to do but when we hate something we hate it, and these players look like they hate playing because they fear it may happen again.

I assume that since all these people are professionals, they will end up with a better result eventually and there will not be a problem and they will start winning games again which may take some time but I bet you that it will happen.

As Halland has been performing well at Manchester City, the chances of the player leaving Manchester City for Real Madrid are a bit higher as opposed to Mbappe as he has been underperforming at PSG for the past few seasons.
If either of these two stars can be signed by Real Madrid then Real Madrid's XI will be better than any other club.

Lol, I don't understand how you can come to a conclusion like that, but I think Mbappe is more likely to be expected by Real Madrid than Haaland. These two strikers have different playing styles, but in my opinion Mbappe seems to be the striker that Real Madrid has been looking for so far. Mbappe's skills and finishing are something that could be useful for Real Madrid, so I'm inclined to choose him instead of Haaland.

It is true, for whatever reason, this season and next season Haaland will not be going to Madrid, so he is quite wrong in choosing players based solely on their abilities, plus Haaland has not shown any interest in joining Real Madrid. Apart from that, Madrid has been interested in Mbappe for a long time and this is already known to the public, but it is quite strange how he explains the movement of the football player market in the opposite way.

I guess Real Madrid os going to have Mbappe on the team by the end of next season if possible because, at the moment,  Real Madrid management have done all the body movement to get this player on board for a while now without any positive result yet.

Real Madrid if being able to get Mbappe into the team will be increasing their chance in the La Liga even though they are already the top club in this league but have a better foundation in the champion leagues.

[Frankolala]

It's funny if anyone thinks Haaland is going to Real Madrid, Lol. Because anyway, with Haaland staying at Manchester City also it is very enough to make Haaland win many titles. Because after all, the move of great players to join Real Madrid is to get a lot of titles, so it's no wonder that Mbappe is always associated with Real Madrid. Because at PSG, Mbappe does not have a good chance of winning titles. Therefore, it is very funny if someone says Haaland has to move to Real Madrid, because in fact Haaland does not need to go to Real Madrid to get a lot of titles, because at Manchester City Haaland also managed to achieve many achievements so far.

Even though the chances are currently very unlikely, Haaland will also be included in Real Madrid's plans. I agree with you that Haaland no longer needs another team because with Manchester City he has succeeded in winning this quite prestigious title. But what I mean is that Real Madrid will really need his services because he is one of the best strikers in the world at the moment.

Meanwhile, if we talk personally, Mbappe is the one who has to be smart in choosing a team to win the title and Real Madrid is probably the one who is most realistic in being able to make his dream come true.

Haalad is an outstanding player that Real Madrid will definitely go for because they love to have the best players in the world to play in their club. It wouldn't be easy for Real Madrid to bring Haalad over to the club, if Manchester City still needs him. This was why they have to increase his pay and extend his contract.

This reason why Real Madrid is thinking of Haalad is because Mbappe has disappointed them and there is no sign of hope if he will come over or not, because he is currently with PSG and they don't want to release him without the requested amount.

[emrecemsan]

Real Madrid are currently the only team without point losses so far. Their next match is against Real Sociedad. As the match is in Santiago Bernabeu I believe in Real Madrid to maintain this winning streak even more. Currently they are dealing with some important injuries like Courtois, Militao and Vinicius Junior. But for now they are doing pretty well anyway. But there is a fact at this point as well.

Bellingham has an enormous role in this winning streak to continue. Because he is playing really extra right now. I don't remember him getting this much forward at Dortmund. Of course he was playing impressively there but I believe he is even better now. He saved Real Madrid from losing points a couple of times already. Hence I think we can see his impact on this match as well and Real Madrid should be winning this.

We agree with what you said about Haaland and his City, but do not rule out the possibility that the player could leave for the Spanish giants. but that doesn't mean it will happen in the near future. at least, for now Haaland is enjoying his career with Manchester City. which means, it will be difficult for Madrid to recruit Haaland from City. because as you said, to win titles or even personal awards, Haaland doesn't need to leave for Madrid first, with City he can get it. Remember that Haaland and his teammates have just won the treble winner.

Even if Haaland goes to Madrid, it will probably happen when he is bored of playing in the Premier League and wants to go on an adventure in another European league. Even if Haaland goes to Madrid, that means there will be a change in the system to suit Haaland's style. that's why, the most ideal is Mbappe. Apart from that, Mbappe can win many titles with Madrid. also, more prestigious personal awards. with PSG, it seems difficult to make it happen.
Maybe next summer, Mbappe will really be a Real Madrid player. because he has the determination to become the best star player. and the way was there, when he played with Real Madrid.

[kawetsriyanto]

I don't think that Erling Haaland will be released by Manchester City and then join Real Madrid, and most likely now it is Mbappe who will join Real Madrid. There is another option besides Mbappe, and that is Napoli's goal-hungry striker Victor Osimhen.

Mbappe himself is still at Paris Saint Germain now, and with his strong desire to leave this team it is speculated that he might join Real Madrid next season. That's not the only thing that makes this speculation strong, because Real Madrid itself has been pursuing Mbappe for several seasons to become one of their players. It was not achieved in the previous season, although in fact they were one step away from signing a contract, but Mbappe preferred Paris Saint Germain.

Agree. Erling Haaland has a long duration for his contract with Man City, it lasts until 2027. There is no rumor that he feels uncomfortable in Man City. And his price must be above €200m if there is a club interested in signing him. I guess it may be €250m at least, Man City probably won't sell him below that price. It is a fantastic price that even Real Madrid may think many times to sign Haaland. Another reason is Guardiola won't agree to sell him because Haaland fits with his tactics. It won't be easy to find his replacemenet, Haaland is surely a perfect striker. He has great skills, good in physical, and has winning mentality.

I think Mbappe is the most possible striker to join Real Madrid. They already got a personal agreement with Mbappe. Real Madrid only need to wait for the end of Mbappe's contract with PSG. I'm sure Mbappe won't extend his contract, he already stated that he want to move when his contract expires next year. While for Osimhen, I don't know how big the chance to sign him. Real Madrid may be interested in him but the price looks to be the obstacle to sign him.

Moreover I don't think Haaland is very suited to Real Madrid's style of play. Real Madrid tends to choose strikers who can dribble the ball well, have speed and other skills instead of just scoring goals. I don't think Haaland is as complete as Mbappe, so of course Mbappe is a player who seems to fit what Real Madrid needs.

Haaland is a pure center forward who doesn't seem to be able to play well in various positions. Mbappe can play on both wings, apart from that he can also be a center forward. Mbappe has many advantages compared to Haaland, but Haaland certainly has something special.

Current standings in La Liga, Real Madrid is the only one teams without losing points yet until four matches depend with other teams Barcelona, and Girona have loss two points after getting one draw of 4 matches. But another unique with La Liga teams with Atletico Madrid still lead top scorings goals and fewest goals conceded, although loss one match, Atletico Madrid as teams have scored 10 goals and conceded one goals in last four matches depend with Madrid have conceded two goals.

Jude Bellingham is most important player for Real Madrid actually after Vinicius Jr injury and becoming goals machine, during 8 goals scoring by Madrid in last four matches, Jude Bellingham have 5 goals contribution and seems he abilities replace well position leaving by Karim Benzema although Bellingham is not striker.

                      Rayo Vellecano vs Depotivo Alaves

Rayo has finally broken the deadlock on the 42nd minutes of the first half with a penalty kick that was scored brilliantly by Isi. Alex Shola committed the foul in the box which gave Rayo an opportunity to take the lead. The visitors are struggling to equalise the goal but I don't think that this will be possible in this first half because, it is few seconds to end the first half. Maybe  Alaves will equalise the goal in the second half. Isi has scored two goals this season. It is half time and I hope to see more goals in the second half. Rayo had more opportunities of scoring more  than Alaves.
Rayo 1-0 Alaves

The special of Haaland you are talking about is that he scored 42 goals in 39 games in the Premier League, the toughest league in the world. His ability to score goals is unbelievable. Yes it is true that he would not be a good wing player or any other position than the center forward, while Mbappe can play all positions very well in the attacking line, but Mbappe would probably never reach the goal scoring stats that Haaland will have. This is also a difference because Mbappe is playing in a weak league and for several years with an unfairly strong team. And I think that Haaland would be an amazing center forward for Real Madrid.

I don't think Real Sociedad will be able to threaten Real Madrid's winning record in the next match. Real Madrid's performance is very good and impressive and so far they really understand that winning is the main goal when playing against other teams. I agree there have been some concerns about Real Madrid's form in recent games, but Bellingham has come in to be the difference. He has helped Real Madrid win tough games and he has been our winning hero in several games.

I hope Bellingham's impressive performance can be maintained and we can really benefit from it. He is a hard worker and has been a good solution when Real Madrid lost their best striker this season. Without Vinicius on the left it will definitely be different, but I'm not worried about the result of the game.

Rayo 1-0 Alaves

I bet on Rayo Vallecano to win today. However, we haven't seen a good performance from Vallecano in the last two matches. Still, I think the team will get back on track with a win against Alaves in today's match. In the last two matches they lost 7-0 against Atletico Madrid and 1-0 against Real Betis. Alaves are a relatively weak team. And Rayo Vallecano is playing pretty well. However, they only scored from the penalty spot. In addition, no more goals can be scored. The match is still likely to be a draw. But I am hopeful that Vallecano will not disappoint me in today's match.

Rayo-vallecano have the better chance of winning this game with the lead they already have from the penalty, they just need to be able to defend it until the last minute. The visiting team with the time left will be planning on settling for a draw in this game to at least get one point, Rayo-vallecano do not need to allow them that opportunity. They have not drawn a game this season, this game should not be their first. A win in this game will take Rayo-vallecano to the fourth position on the table pending the other games for the weekend.

I know a friend that predict over 1.5 goals in this game and I know he'll be currently hoping they score another goal no matter which side scores lol, well asides from that Rayo-vallecano are favorites to win the match, I just checked the scoreline to see they've added another goal, he'll be very happy currently because the match is now 2-0 with a goal from Frutos and i don't think Alaves would equalize now the game is almost 90mins.

 I'm so impressed with the home teams performance they where very outstanding and didn't put their fans to shame, they played so brilliantly the point that they committed the opposition defense to get a penalty and i believe that's what gave them the boost to win the match if you observe in the stats the home team are more possessive and had 19 shots with 10 on target and they really deserved the winning.

You have made a good bet @Marvell1 because Rayo is leading with 2-0 and it is the  extra time of the second half. De Frutus has sealed up their winning with a second goal that he finished superbly after he receives a cross from the left side of the box in a counter attack. It is quite amazing that the second half was dominated by the host Rayo and they are having great time playing Alaves. Rayo has missed so many chances and they could still maintain the pressure that they are mounting on Alaves. It is quite a pity that Alaves hasn't won any match since the beginning of the season, due to their poor performance in all matches.

Rayo Vallecano up and running, winning Deportivo Alaves 2 nil is a well deserved results for the home team. Vallecano dominated the game with enchanced performance from the players. Francisco Rodriguez keep scouting for improvement in his sqaud, because he really need to get over their previous humiliating results they got from Atletico Madrid, been thrashed 7 nil in the campaign. Rayo Vallecano starting to return back to their best form, it's just a gradual process, everything will fall back with the club climbing to higher heights this season.

Alaves has still done a good job this season because getting promoted is never easy and they have won two incredibly important games against Sevilla and Valencia when the odds were surely against them. Most of the time when teams get promoted it is more difficult for them to win any of the away games when simultaneously they are able to beat teams like the two I mentioned above. The home games are their savior I would expect. If they keep collecting points frequently from their home games, and it doesn't have to be the three points all the time, I believe they have a realistic chance to stay in La Liga after this season.

Haaland is a complete striker for sure. If you watched his previous matches in Dortmund, you will understand how good his skills in dribbling and he has a speed as well. Moreover, he has a great accuracy in shooting, too. I'm sure Per Guardiola won't sign Haaland if Haaland has no good skills in dribbling and has no speed. Guardiola is only interested in a player who has great skill in dribbling.

Well, both Haaland and Mbappe have the same level. They have good in speed, dribbling, and shooting. But I agree if Mbappe is more flexible, he can play in 3 positions (CF, LW, RW). While Haaland is purely center forward.

[KTChampions]

If there was confidence that Haaland would not go anywhere, then City probably would not seek to extend his contract with significantly increasing his salary, right? Why if there are still a few more years?
As for the Ballon d'Or, last season Haalnad broke some historical records, became the top scorer in the Premier League and the Champions League, but did not come close to receiving it 

Of course, Haaland can leave but that's why I say Haaland will not leave anytime soon because Manchester City have the power to extend his contract. Regarding the Ballon d'Or, of course Haaland can win it with Manchester City, even if he doesn't get it this season considering the competition between players. If Haaland is able to break many other records with Manchester City, I believe he will be able to win the award in his second season.

It is far from certain that City will achieve the treble again and that Haaland specifically will again have a perfect season. In any case, the Euro is ahead and if Mbappe shines there, Haaland may again be left with nothing. Moving to Real Madrid, on the one hand, does not correct this situation; on the other hand, it is better to work with an adequate coach and a club that will glorify you and not with the zombie-fool Guardiola, who repeats that Messi is better than Haaland even when Haaland plays for him.
