La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Vinaa77]

From the Real Madrid team, I am really surprised by the performance of the Barcelona team. Currently in some matches Barcelona team is behind in the first half and also in the second half but they are able to either draw or win the match in the last minute. This thing will bring great things to the Barcelona team. Coach Xavi really has to be praised for the amazing Barcelona team he has developed.

Xavi is doing a very good job with Barcelona. He has been able to put a very strong fighting spirit in his players. They always want to win no matter how difficult the situation might be. I wonder why some people still look down on the work he has done. They may not play the way peak Barcelona play but they don't play baldy. They're very compact and discipline.

You have to applaud the new management for all they've done. They have very limited funds yet they've managed to bring in very good players in every position of the squad.
I feel Barcelona will win the league this season. Madrid are struggling with injuries and are not really in sync despite winning most games so far.
It's going to be an interesting season ahead.
Let's see how the weekend turn out after Girona plays Madrid and Barcelona take on Sevilla.

This season the Barcelona squad is more mature, a number of new players brought in this season are quite experienced players. Even though the start of the league was not very smooth, the team's performance showed mental readiness in the match so that the Blaugrana troops did not give up easily.

Girona has looked very impressive so far and surprised many people, but I'm not so sure they will always be able to appear consistent. Real Madrid and Barcelona are two big powers in La Liga, it is difficult for Girona to surpass these two classic teams.

This season the Barcelona squad is more mature, a number of new players brought in this season are quite experienced players. Even though the start of the league was not very smooth, the team's performance showed mental readiness in the match so that the Blaugrana troops did not give up easily.

Girona has looked very impressive so far and surprised many people, but I'm not so sure they will always be able to appear consistent. Real Madrid and Barcelona are two big powers in La Liga, it is difficult for Girona to surpass these two classic teams.

I actually really regret Barcelona's draw against Mallorca in the last match. Barcelona failed to win that match even though they actually had several good opportunities to get ahead of their opponents, but their players' less than optimal finishing resulted in Barcelona suffering their second draw this season.

Barcelona played badly in defense where Ter Steigen made a mistake, then Barcelona had to lag behind the second goal because the defense was too forward when Mallorca counterattacked. Xavi must improve his team's defensive system so that they don't concede so easily from counter-attack schemes, but if not then there are many bad results that will await Barcelona throughout the season. Girona is a surprise, but it won't last long, trust me.

[tusandii]

Girona may be doing well this season, but the opponent they will face is a team like Real Madrid which we know is a very strong club.  Although some weaknesses can still be exploited by Girona, it is still quite difficult for them to really beat Real Madrid in next week's match.
On the other hand, Real Madrid will definitely not want them to be defeated for the second time in a row after this week they lost to city rivals Atltico Madrid. In this match I am sure they will aim for victory in order to restore the lost victory this week.

Yes, it is really very surprising that Girona is one of the clubs that was just promoted last season and this season almost destroyed the dominance of the other big clubs which gave them the first position, currently displacing Barcelona and Real Madrid and I had time to think about what gave Girona this extraordinary strength while they don't have talented star players or indeed this is a very good contribution from Michel who succeeded in making Girona even stronger this season.
I'm not really sure whether Real Madrid is able to break Girona's dominance at the moment because the match will be at Girona's home ground which makes this club stronger and if Real Madrid is unable to break Girona's dominance maybe they have to wait for Barcelona to beat them but it's still a very long way to go waiting for the schedule, Barca must beat Girona, but it is possible that other clubs can deliberately break Girona's strength to beat them, like Cadiz or Almeria.
Even though they are only small clubs, they can sometimes destroy their opponents' dominance with surprises and I hope Girona does not become the leader of LaLiga this season.

Ossasuna vs Atletico Madrid

This is an important match for Atletico Madrid to win in La Liga after they managed to humiliate Real Madrid 3-1. Ossasuna is not a team that has had good form so far, so Atletico Madrid will certainly have to make good use of its opportunities. I don't think this match will end in a draw even though Ossasuna is playing at home, I mean Atletico is the favorite to take 3 points away from home to compete in the top 4 again.

Atletico Madrid had just taken the lead through Antoine Griezmann's goal from a tight corner to the right of the goal, so this was a good start to hoping for a win for Atletico Madrid. But I think both teams can score goals considering that Ossasuna was able to build an attack that forced Atletico to play with 5 defenders, but Atletico Madrid's victory would still be higher.

[ndutndut]

It's true that I agree that Real Madrid has had a little difficulty winning games this season, several of their key players suffered injuries at the start of the season being the main factor. However, now that Vinicius is available again, the Los Blancos squad will have additional energy on the wings and not be completely dependent on Bellingham. As we know, Madrid really needs an ideal number nine, maybe it will come true in January when the transfer window opens.

But I think otherwise for Madrid next match against Girona, I'm pretty sure Ancelotti squad can beat Girona. Maybe this is the time for Girona to experience their first defeat of the season, it's true that Girona has an unbeaten record and is at the top of the standings at the moment, I think it's natural because they haven't met a tougher team. But Madrid is a nightmare for them, we'll see how the match goes.

Aside from the impact of multiple players injury for Real Madrid we still have some other limitations that have dragged the club backward in the past and still affecting their present standing although the club is gradually recovering and at that we must give them some commendation from the outcome of their recent games that have recorded a lot of success in the area of goals recorded.

But then we still expect more positive outcome from real Madrid in the remaining time in the season like what was witnessed in the 2021-2022 season.

Real Madrid will play Girona, before returning to play in the UCL League against Napoli early next week. Real Madrid will certainly have difficulty beating Girona, in the last meeting Real Madrid also lost. But now Real Madrid has to face Girona who is in good condition.

In fact, both teams have several injured players, injured Girona players Bernardo Espinosa, Borja Garcia, Joel Roca, Ricard Artero and Toni Villa. Meanwhile, in the injured Real Madrid team, David Alaba, Eder Militao, Thibaut Courtois and Arda Guler are still injured, but it is very likely that Vini will play in this match.

If you look at the condition of the two teams, of course this will be a very difficult match for both teams, and it is possible that this match will end with a share of points or a draw. Even though Real Madrid is the favorite in the match, Girona's performance this season is very good and still consistent.

I feel Barcelona will win the league this season. Madrid are struggling with injuries and are not really in sync despite winning most games so far.
It's going to be an interesting season ahead.
Let's see how the weekend turn out after Girona plays Madrid and Barcelona take on Sevilla.

Not gonna lie, I am a little surprised to see Barcelona not being able to win the last match against Mallorca. I believe Barcelona was doing very well and they definitely should have been able to win this match. Especially when Barcelona is trying to defend the La Liga title. They do not have a good financial situation and they cannot invest in the team right now as much as they want, I understand that. But that is also the reason why they should be winning these matches. Because it is definitely going to be hard to win matches against the likes of Real Madrid. so Barcelona should not be missing out on any chances of getting three points. Barcelona has definitely been able to do very well. Especially under the current situation which they are in.

But I don't think it is going to be a crime to ask for better performance from them.

Girona and Real Madrid's abilities will be tested next week when they face each other at the Estadi Montilivi stadium. Girona who has performed extraordinary this season, managed to reach the top of the standings, now they are one point ahead of Real Madrid and two points ahead of Barcelona. This match is very important for both teams, especially Girona who acts as host, victory will further widen Girona gap with Real Madrid.

While Real Madrid must be careful with the surprise from Girona, Ancelotti must learn from the defeat that Real Madrid experienced against Atletico. This season Real Madrid's goal productivity has also decreased drastically and they have conceded 6 goals since the season started. Girona could add to Real Madrid's wounds if their front line plays less than optimally and the defense line is not neatly organized. Since being held to a draw by Real Sociedad in the first week, Girona has won six consecutive wins, of course this match is a big test for Real Madrid because Girona is in top form.

If Girona manages to beat Real Madrid in their home match, then this team deserves high respect from me. Of course I'm sure they can't be expected to thwart Real Madrid's plans to return to the top of the standings, but following their good performance, who are unbeaten in 7 consecutive matches, a draw can be considered.

Real Madrid have learned from their derby defeat against Atletico Madrid and they have recovered as evidenced by their win against Las Palmas. Vinicius' return has made their attacking line stronger, so Girona will likely have difficulty maintaining their unbeaten record.

Tomorrow's match against Real Madrid will prove which team deserves to be at the top of the points table.

Real Madrid's next match is against Girona, who are already on top of the points table, so Real Madrid must plan hard before taking the field against them. Real Madrid will lose a lot from this match if they share the points or lose points in this match as full points can give Real Madrid a lot. Already losing against Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid are not in a good morale, but since they are a professional team, they have to adapt to any situation and perform at their best. 

I will be much happier as a Real Madrid supporter if Real Madrid get full points in this match.

This season the Barcelona squad is more mature, a number of new players brought in this season are quite experienced players. Even though the start of the league was not very smooth, the team's performance showed mental readiness in the match so that the Blaugrana troops did not give up easily.

Girona has looked very impressive so far and surprised many people, but I'm not so sure they will always be able to appear consistent. Real Madrid and Barcelona are two big powers in La Liga, it is difficult for Girona to surpass these two classic teams.

Barcelona is now much better than before, especially after two Joaos from Portugal have joined Camp Nou. now, they are better prepared to face various matches in all competitions. Apart from that, Barcelona now has second tier players who are quite better than before. Unfortunately, in the Mallorca match, Barcelona had to draw with a score of 2-2.
If I were Xavi, maybe I would experiment playing Joao Felix as a center forward and Ferran Torres on the wing. because as we often see, Ferran Torres always has difficulty playing his role as a center forward. But apart from all that, it is normal that all big teams will not always win every match. well, if Pedri recovers from his injury. Xavi can have the option of rotating his players according to the needs of the team and who the opponent is. Tomorrow Barcelona will host Sevilla at Camp Nou, on paper Barcelona is far the favorite over Sevilla.

Talking about Girona, this team has performed quite impressively and is in the top spot at the top of the standings. two points ahead of Barcelona, ​​one point difference with Real Madrid. In this week's match, Girona's consistency will be tested by hosting Real Madrid. So, we will find out whether Girona is able to face El Real in the meeting between these two teams. This is interesting, because the result of the match will determine the position of these two teams.

They made alot of people i know lose their bet, because everyone expected them to win Mallorca based on their current form and picked them to win the game but they killed their expectations and drew the match, Mallorca are close to the relegation but suprisenly held Barcelona to a draw and they scored the opener whích should had been the other way round and repĺied with another goal in the extra time of the 1st half after Barcelona equalized the 1st goal.

 Barcelona might not be very financially balanced to build a very strong squad but their current squad is in no doubt very strong this season to face any team in the Laliga and with the quality players they've got they don't have any excuses for losing against smaller teams, anyways they played well ánd deserved to win but they were careless with their defense and underestimated Mallorca i guess that's why they drew the game, if they had won they would had been in the 1st position but they're currently in third position with 17 points.

After failing in the match against Mallorca, Barcelona will try to improve everything in the next match against Sevilla. Considering that this is Barcelona's home match, of course they are very favored over their opponents. Moreover, Barcelona have played well at home so far, winning all 4 home games in two different competitions, so I believe they are still the favorites to win.

Sevilla is still too weak to hope to beat Barcelona considering they have only been able to win 2 of their 6 La Liga matches so far. A 5-1 win over Almeria might motivate them to do well at the Lluís Companys Olympic tomorrow, but I'm less confident in that possibility.

Ossasuna vs Atletico Madrid

This is an important match for Atletico Madrid to win in La Liga after they managed to humiliate Real Madrid 3-1. Ossasuna is not a team that has had good form so far, so Atletico Madrid will certainly have to make good use of its opportunities. I don't think this match will end in a draw even though Ossasuna is playing at home, I mean Atletico is the favorite to take 3 points away from home to compete in the top 4 again.

Currently, the match between Osasuna vs Atletico Madrid is still underway, only half-time. And ATM is currently leading by 1 goal from the 20th minute and there has been no further addition from either of them. In fact, Osasuna looked like they could match Atletico Madrid's performance, and they even attacked more. However, we can see that the accuracy of their attacks is not optimal, especially as their executioners are not sharp enough. This makes them waste several existing opportunities. For now, we still can't confirm who will be the winner, whether ATM will win with the same score or increase it or Osasuna will reverse the situation.

Girona is a very impressive club, they are not considered a big club at all, but so far they have been able to optimize their chances to become leaders in La Liga. Although I don't know how long this will last, at least this is a very good achievement for them. Next week's match will determine whether Girona will still be in first place or will be overtaken by Real Madrid because they will meet in the Girona vs Real Madrid match. In terms of squad strength, of course RMA will be superior, but sometimes their consistency is not good enough and is surprising. So, it's going to be interesting.

[Velvet78]

Atletico Madrid are in the lead by 1-0 right now in the second half maybe. But the football they have played so far isn't impressive to me. They have only two goal attempts in the whole 55 minutes so far. This statistics is really risky for them. Because as long as they can't increase the goal gap to two they might have to leave the pitch by one point.

Osasuna have had many more attempts than them but they just can't find the target. But they must be still very hopeful as it score is still 1-0. Getting one point would be good enough for Osasuna. But I hope Atletico Madrid manage to win here.

[EFS]

After failing in the match against Mallorca, Barcelona will try to improve everything in the next match against Sevilla. Considering that this is Barcelona's home match, of course they are very favored over their opponents. Moreover, Barcelona have played well at home so far, winning all 4 home games in two different competitions, so I believe they are still the favorites to win.

Barca is still unbeaten but Mallorca was a game they should've won. They fell back two times and it was harder to score against a defensive Mallorca. They should hold these type of uncalculated point losses to minimum. Real also has bad games but they still won. It's important to win even when you play worse than opponent. Real's only loss was against Atletico which is acceptable.
Team of the first 7 weeks is Girona. It'll be an interesting match between them and Real Madrid this weekend. We'll see if it's by luck or if they are really good and deserve the first place. One thing for sure is at least one of them lose points.

Atletico Madrid got a big boost from winning against Real Madrid and i think they will win this match aswell,they are looking really well and this might be a start of a winning streak for them and if they manage to get three points they will certainly come really close to the top.

[Rengga Jati]

Granada vs Real Betis currently 0-0 at half time, no goals on both team side. Granada was more aggressive in this match, they had several golden opportunities at home. Statistically, even though Granada lost in possession of the ball, but they weren't too bad. Even, it seems like Granada will get a point in that match, maybe one points because Real Betis cannot be underestimated either. The second half will start, I hope Granada not waste their golden opportunity.

The final result of Granada vs Real Betis ended in a 1 - 1 draw.
Real Betis was indeed able to take more ball possession, but it was Granada who were more attacking. Unfortunately, there were many wasted opportunities from Granada themselves, so that after equalizing in the 67th minute, there were no additional goals from either of them. Even though this should be a good moment for Real Betis to win, especially against clubs in the relegation zone. But yes, the results have ended in a draw, what can we do? Real Betis has not been able to optimize its performance this time.

Atletico Madrid got a big boost from winning against Real Madrid and i think they will win this match as well, they are looking really well and this might be a start of a winning streak for them and if they manage to get three points they will certainly come really close to the top.

Yeah, this should be a good motivation for them, but don't be overconfident. Because in the second half, Osasuna looked very persistent and Atletico Madrid started having difficulty winning the ball. Even though Osasuna also controlled the game and often carried out attacks. but it hasn't produced results yet.
The current position is still 0 - 1 in favor of Atletico Madrid.

[kawetsriyanto]

He confirmed that he made a Mistake when he set out his team against ATM but had to correct that in this match. The attacking dou of Rodrigo and Joselu was crucial and that was what was missing in the last match. Brahim Diaz has waited to have his opportunity to start today and he definitely backed that with a goal which he deserves, I just hope he doesn’t get pulled back to the bench to accommodate the return of Vinicius. A great game by Madrid and I think this season tittle will be interesting.

Ancelotti may realize that Real Madrid was playing too defensively against Atletico Madrid. They have too many center midfielders at that time, they only have Rodrygo as a pure attacker. I think the result can be different if Ancelotti put Joselu-Rodrygo-Brahim Diaz on the front line. These 3 players deserve to play as main attackers and they are supported by Bellingham-Kroos-Valverde in the midfield line. TBH, this formation that I expected on the match against Atletico Madrid.

I hope that Ancelotti will admit his mistakes and take better steps instead for the upcoming matches. If we look at the tactics of Ancelotti against Atlético Madrid, then there were quite weak tactics; there were many mistakes in the defense; and there was also a lack of confidence in the attack.

Ancelotti seems aware about his mistake. He changed the tactic and rotated some players in the last match (against Las Palmas). He knows that Real Madrid attacking line has a problem, it is not very offensively. He also realizes that he can rely on Bellingham only as the machine goal of Real Madrid. Regarding the problem on the defense line, it is quite complicated. Since Militao and Carvajal got injured, Real Madrid defense looks a bit weak. They actually needs a new defender to strengthen their defense.

Hopefully, in the Girona game, Ancelotti won't make any attempts to pretend the game isn't important like he did against Ateltico.
Girona are still playing very well and Girona's consistency is still maintained so Madrid should not do things that are detrimental to their club.
Vini is still unavailable but there are still a few players who could be an option instead of forcing Jude into the striker position it would be better to force Rodrygo and Joselu even though in this case it seems that the 2 striker scheme is also a little hampering Rodrygo.
But by placing Jude back at second striker it could be a good thing because even though Modric played well but I think he is still very suitable as an attacking midfielder not a second striker.

Atletico Madrid had really took advantage of this match and won the match by two goals. They were  both one player down because of a tussle that happened between Morata and Chimy Avila, they were both given red card which in my opinion I think it is right. They wanted to distrupt the good game flow in the match.

Now, this is another great win for Atletico Madrid and I think they deserved it. Despite playing in Osasuna’s home and much match domination by then, Atletico Madrid have been able to win the match by two goals margin which shows how eager they are for the title hunt amongst other top teams in the league. Hopefully, they can continue this their form to remain dominant in this season.

[GbitG]

Everyone must be surprised with Girona performance, no one predicted this team to lead La Liga standings. Yep, they have no top players, they just have average players.

Dude, it is just for a few days to consider Girona at the top of the table. Barcelona and Real Madrid are the two nominations for La Liga from the beginning of the season. Yes, if we believe that anyone other than Barcelona and Real Madrid has the competence to win La Liga, it is Atlatico Madrid, Athletic Club, Real Sociedad, etc. So it means to say that there is a flight of some days, but it will be fulfilled, and then, of course, Girona is first on the league table, but with time, between these two Barcelonas or Real Madrids, one of them will be given the power of the last league by clearing the point.

[LGD2Business]

Atletico Madrid won again, they had a difficult away match. They finished the match without conceding a goal. Their defense is really good. They learned from their mistakes in the Valencia match. However, it wasn't good for them when Alvaro Morata received a red card. The duo of Morata and Griezmann was playing very well. Now the striker duo will be broken. Atletico can still win the Cadiz match without Morata. They are doing well for now and pushing for the top positions.
