La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Jody.Drummer]

It is rare to see midfield players score 10+ goals in a season but Jude Bellingham who joined Real Madrid during the summer transfer window has 10 goals in his 10 games in all competitions for the Spanish giants.
The England international is currently one of the most prolific players in Europe and his two goals today helped his Real Madrid team to beat Osasuna by  four goals to nil. Vinicius Jnr also has been very impressive for Madrid since he returned to action after been sidelined as a result of injury. Real Madrid new formation and playing pattern is indeed giving them great results.

Agree with you, because it's rare for midfielders to be as productive as Bellingham. Yes, this is also thanks to coach Ancelloti's intelligence, he knows the composition of each player. Bellingham must remain compact and consistent with his team. If he is not consistent, there are still many players in the line or squad that he has. by Real Madrid to replace his position, if he remains consistent in all matches, there is definitely a possibility of him qualifying for prestigious trophies at his club.

Not only that, he's scored in a season that's arguably just begun, and with so many games still to come, it's an opportunity for him to keep adding to his goal tally. I won't be srprised if he scores more than 20 goals this season, although that's a number we rarely see coming from a midfielder.
It's interesting that he's the top scorer for Real Madrid and leads the La Liga goalscoring charts for the time being. Even other strikers from clubs like Barcelona have only scored 5 goals in La Liga.

Real Madrid made the right choice by signing him this season.

Bellingham is really very impressive of course, because basically Bellingham is not an striker player and not an finisher player too. Therefore, if Bellingham has such a high productivity in terms of goals like this . Then of course, Bellingham is a player with very good skills and potential for Real Madrid performance in each match. So yes, I think Real Madrid has a squad for the great future . Considering Bellingham and some of Real Madrid current key players are also young. So yes, with young players who have above average quality like this, of course it will certainly be good for the future of Real Madrid.

With Bellingham in the squad currently Realmadrid would perform well in all the competition they're participating in this season and they're going going to give a very good  competition against their strongest rivals Barcelona.

 Talking about Barcelona they're currently in the 3rd place and would be playing againt a team that's in the relegation zone later today against and I expect them to win against Granada today even though they're playing away from home, the match should be very easy for them, if Barcelona wins today it would take them to the 2nd place with 1 point behind the current league leaders Realmadrid, Atletico Madrid are performing well and are currently leading 1-0 at home against Real Sociedad at their home ground.

La Liga matchday 9 : Granada vs Barcelona

Under pressure for Barcelona against Granada depend current teams standing on relegation zone because their rival standings team above Real Madrid and Girona get positive result on last match. Girona who second standings position awhile success take three points against Cadiz and Real Madrid who manage top position standing success defeated Osasuna and have 2 points gap from Girona on second placed.
Barcelona should take three points against Granada if want back to second place, due their composition not complete yet after Robert Lewandowski got injury and right now they have several players absent such as Pedri and Frenkie De Jong will make difficult choose for Xavi Hernandez who will replace crucial position.

In fact, Granada is not a strong team, in fact they are currently in the relegation zone having only collected 5 points from their 8 matches. and Granada's only win was against Mallorca, the remaining 5 matches were defeats and the last two matches resulted in draws. Even though in this match Granada played as the home team, it was very difficult to match Barcelona's game, let alone provide fierce resistance. there are not many other options, apart from them playing with a defensive pattern. At least, they are targeting 1 point in this match rather than losing.

As for Barcelona, ​​they are currently 4 points behind Real Madrid, 2 points behind Girona. In this match, they must get full points even though several key Barcelona players have to be absent due to injuries, such as Pedri, Raphinha, Lewandowski and De Jong. Even so, Xavi still has other options instead. Indeed, it was quite unlucky for Barca with injuries to several of their important players. However, Xavi still has other options that he can rely on. Xavi will continue to play Joao Felix on the wing and Ferran Torres as a replacement for Lewandoki. But, these two players can actually exchange positions. So, in this match it depends on what strategy Xavi will implement. Apart from that, there is Lamine Yamal, a young wing who has the chance to become a great player. for the others, there are no changes in all lines and are filled by the main players, except for Oriol Romeu who replaces De Jong's role. Well, I remain optimistic that Barcelona will get full points in this match. However, regarding the final result of the match, I am not sure whether Barcelona can score many goals in this match. what is certain, we will find out after this match is held.

About Bellingham I don't see anything missing from him, he is developing quickly and has full support from his colleagues in the Los Blancos squad. Bellingham impressive performance can provide a sense of security for Ancelotti and the squad as a whole, we have seen him score goals in several important matches to bring Madrid to full points.

I think Madrid has been very good in determining its transfer policy, recruiting players who are considered very young but have potential like Bellingham. Another one who is most awaited is Arda Guler, who has not yet made his debut in La Liga due to injury.

Atletico Madrid is leading by a goal as the first half of the match against Real socidad just ended, Atletico is underperforming but they are a goal ahead and that's what's most important, especially if they could possibly maintain it to get a win, it will probably help atletico get to the Fourth position with 19 points but if they fail to secure a win they will fall back to the fifth position with 16 points only.

Hopefully by the second half atletico gets a goal it will be more Solid their possibility of winning but this 1-0 victory bis still Shakey as they are not really performing excellently in the match. Las Palmas won Villarreal in their home and went up the standings to the 10th position with 11points while Villarreal is currently at 16th position with just eight points after playing eight games for the season.

In the end, Atletico Madrid won with a score of 2-1, and they succeeded in securing three points in today match. Although it wasn't easy for them, because Real Sociedad was also quite good. After beating Real Madrid, the Atletico Madrid team was very consistent in collecting points, in the last few of matches they always won. Even, including the big UCL competition and that is a very good trend for them. It doesn't make sense, Villarreal lost at home. To be honest, I bet on the home team but with their loss I also felt the loss, really bad.

Real Sociedad was no weak opponent, also their performance in today's match was very good. However Atletico Madrid played well in the home match, and the players were very confident, this is why they won today's match. Yes they won by just 1 goal, but they earned full points. Atletico Madrid are now just 1 point behind  Barcelona, the team is fourth in the table.

Actually I am very disappointed with Villarreal's performance today. You know their performance in home matches was also poor, they conceded both goals in this match despite playing defensively. Las Palmas was not a strong team, however we did not see a better performance from Villarreal's players in this match. The team is now very close to the relegation zone, they are 16th in the points table.

[TopT3ns]

I truly think that Ancelotti has been incredibly unreasonable with his player management, especially when it comes to Modric! Even though he's not 38 years old, a player of his level deserves to be given more game time. He's still great with the ball, calling plays and planning moves, but he has to sit on the bench and warm up. Not true! Then there's Jude Bellingham, a wonderful young player who, with 8 goals in 8 games, is honestly shining brighter than most. But putting so much faith in a young player while leaving a seasoned pro like Modric on the bench? Im not sure how to understand that move. Even though Modric isnt putting in great 90-minute efforts, Madrid could still benefit greatly from using his creativity from the start

There is a possibility that Modric will play on the pitch for more time, but Carlo Ancelotti doesn't want to take the risk of letting Luka Modrić play longer.Carlo Ancelotti has carefully considered Modric's condition to remain healthy and have a lot of stamina, because so far it has been very difficult to find a midfielder at Real Madrid. We know that finding a replacement for Benzema requires quite a long process, so Ancelotti will continue to look after quality players so that they can play in the next match.

To be honest, I bet on the home team but with their loss I also felt the loss, really bad.

I wouldn't say that Atlético "reliably" wins games, for example 3-2 with Cadiz (what is that?), but as long as they win it's hard to blame them. And by the way, today’s game, despite the slippery score, could have been more convincing if Grinzman had been more fortunate; after the first half it could have been 3-0 or 4-1.
From this round, I would note another loss of points by Sevilla, now they have 8 points after 8 games and there are simply no prospects of entering the top 4.

La Liga matchday 9 : Granada vs Barcelona

Under pressure for Barcelona against Granada depend current teams standing on relegation zone because their rival standings team above Real Madrid and Girona get positive result on last match. Girona who second standings position awhile success take three points against Cadiz and Real Madrid who manage top position standing success defeated Osasuna and have 2 points gap from Girona on second placed.
Barcelona should take three points against Granada if want back to second place, due their composition not complete yet after Robert Lewandowski got injury and right now they have several players absent such as Pedri and Frenkie De Jong will make difficult choose for Xavi Hernandez who will replace crucial position.

Certain Barcelona will not get it easy tonight still on, the win is sure they're without se quality players though but victory would be sure at the end of the game.

Atletico Madrid are scoring more goals that they do before, that's beautiful to see. They should have ended up with the game sealed bit that late penalty awarded changed everything for good.
A tough game between Alaves and Real Betis. Former Manchester City manager Pelligrini and his side are struggling. They scored a nice one by Ayoze Perez after the shot which the keeper failed to punch out. Bellerin also scored the own goal that put the score level.
Mason Greenwood with a goal tonight, fabulous!

I have done some research and predict that even though Granada will compete at home in this match, it doesn't mean they have a big chance of winning because if you look at the Head To Head history, it looks like Granada has a chance to end the match in a draw, but that is past and present history. Barcelona's current situation is very different, even a little stronger and I am very confident that Barcelona will appear with a very strong performance.
It doesn't look like Lewandowski is too badly injured and he looks like he will appear in this match but there is no guarantee that Lewandowski will appear in the first half, there is a slight possibility that he will appear in the second half.

The top of the table is still very close and Girona keeps on delivering these great performances. They were promoted into La Liga just two years ago and finished the last season as 10th and as it looks now they are ready to take the next step and make further progress. This looks very solid and stable so far, no real signs of weaknesses and no crack in their outstanding shape which they have been showing for weeks now. I think the first goal for them is to play like this until the season halftime and then make a first evaluation and set their goals. With 22 points won already it is hard to imagine how they could still be dealing with the relegation zone at some point.

[Polkeins]

Bellingham's start is like Cristiano Ronaldo's in the 2009/2010 season so maybe we are watching the birth of a new superstar, but Ancelotti is right to point out that the player besides goals has a mature soccer character and I think that now Bellingham's game is more reminiscent of Zidane during his years playing for Real Madrid.  

He performed extraordinarily, he got more support at Real Madrid. In addition, we know that Real Madrid has better quality players than Dortmund so naturally Bellingham's potential is maximum in Madrid. Maybe he will be a new decade after Ronaldo. Bellingham's match record and age are younger and better than Ronaldo.  Furthermore, Bellingham just needs to be consistent and maintain performance so that he does not get injured or decline in performance.

So far it's working out just right, Bellingham could truly be the top star of this decade and replace Mbappe, Neymar and Messi if he continues to play at the same pace.

What I liked about Real's game against osasuna in general was that Real looked like they were playing for fun, much like Barcelona during the Ronaldinho era when the teams were enjoying themselves. Not the way Man City plays now or Bayern used to play, like a machine that beats everyone and everything, but Real now has exactly the atmosphere of "romantic" soccer of the 2000s, when Pirlo, Kaka, Ronaldinho played and the audience enjoyed the game, even if the team was losing.  

[hahay]

He is heading in a direction that puts him among the players with the most potential to win the Ballon D'or next season, but it all depends on Real Madrid achievements this season. He must maintain his performance like this to help Real Madrid win several titles including La Liga and UCL. His contribution so far has succeeded in making Real Madrid the top of the standings. Real Madrid's goal of becoming champions again this season can be achieved as long as Bellingham and other players are able to form a squad that is difficult to beat.

Bellingham scores again and this time makes a double, Vinicius also returns to his previous form and scores in the same way, and Joselu also scored in this match, only he could not score a penalty in the last minutes of the match. At this time, Ancelotti had already replaced Vinicius and Bellingham, probably otherwise one of them would have taken the penalty. Real Madrid are in great shape and ready to fight for the championship.

Agreed, I really hope Real Madrid manage to win some trophies this season or maybe, if Real Madrid manage to win the treble winner then of course Bellingham will get the Ballon d'Or. But yes, even if Bellingham doesn't get the Ballon d'Or, but I'm still confident, that Bellingham has the chance to get many trophies and titles over time. Because ya, considering Bellingham still young age too. But, because this moment Real Madrid has been very good with Bellingham like this . So, if Real Madrid will still bring Mbappe and or maybe Osimhen later, then of course Real Madrid performance will be even better.

Losing to Real Madrid, I felt they would start dropping points but they have decided to make a good show of the chance they have. They won against Cadiz which showed they meant business and want to stay longer than we have predicted.
I will wait untill halfway of the season before I can judge or give a good conclusion.

Since Lewandoski and some players would be absent, Barcelona is likely to play a first half draw or we shall witness less goals scored in the first half. More like it was against Porto during the Champions League.

[rendravolt]

Last week Villarreal only drew against Getafe and today they failed to win at home against Las Palmas with a score of 1-2. This is a bad result for Villarreal because in the last 5 La Liga matches they were only able to win once against Almeria. Today's defeat at home to Las Palmas means they are still at the bottom of the standings and I think they will still experience difficulties for the next few weeks if they continue like this. Since changing coaches some time ago, they have not shown positive results in La Liga and maybe this season Villarreal will not be as good as last season.

This game is the clearest example of how the bookies mess with us,they give 1.70 as an odd to Villareal when they clearly lack the form and they have based this odd only on the name of the team.I wanted to bet on them but then changed to Atletico Madrid only because of their form as they are on a great run and they prove me right,they won against a really good Real Sociedad which is doing great also in the La Liga so what we learn here is that bookies should most of the time not be trusted and better to trust our vision and our knowledge,this will most of the time be beneficial to us.Villareal needs to improve their game as they have the players to do so and surely the players to win against a team like Las Palmas.

Last season Villarreal finished in 5th place in the standings, but currently the number of points they have is still less than the number of matches they have played. They could not use the positive results obtained in the previous Europa League group stage match as capital to achieve victory at home over Las Palmas. In fact, Villarreal has to admit the greatness of promoted club Las Palmas, if you look at the standings, Villarreal is far behind and almost touching the relegation zone.

If in the next match against Alaves, and Villarreal fail again, it is certain that they will be in the relegation zone. Rojo Martin must be able to take his squad in a better direction, the standings are increasingly competitive and it is difficult to finish like last season if performance is not stable.

[Minecache]

In the end, Atletico Madrid won with a score of 2-1, and they succeeded in securing three points in today match. Although it wasn't easy for them, because Real Sociedad was also quite good. After beating Real Madrid, the Atletico Madrid team was very consistent in collecting points, in the last few of matches they always won.

I wouldn't say that Atlético "reliably" wins games, for example 3-2 with Cadiz (what is that?), but as long as they win it's hard to blame them. And by the way, today’s game, despite the slippery score, could have been more convincing if Grinzman had been more fortunate; after the first half it could have been 3-0 or 4-1.
From this round, I would note another loss of points by Sevilla, now they have 8 points after 8 games and there are simply no prospects of entering the top 4.

In this game, I actually think that the match could have gone either way. Atletico Madrid was actually very lucky to be able to win this match. A lot of times the ball came back of the goalpost from both teams. And Atletico Madrid was also really lucky to actually get the penalty decision given to them. I mean, of course, that was a penalty. But the player didn't even see the ball and if the player was not even there, the goalkeeper was most probably going to have it covered. so this was obviously not a very convincing performance from them. But good for them that they were able to win this match and still stay at the top of the table.

[GxSTxV]

Certain Barcelona will not get it easy tonight still on, the win is sure they're without se quality players though but victory would be sure at the end of the game.

Indeed! Barcelona is already losing by one goal conceded just in the first minute of the match. Granada is likely to play the next minutes with a total defense strategy so Barcelona's players must give their best effort to at least draw the score before the end of the first half otherwise it’s going to be hard for them. Lately, we see that Xavi has been struggling to guide the team back onto the right path after a shaky start to the season losing some crucial points in LaLiga in easy matches.
Now Failing to win this match puts Barcelona at risk of dropping to 4th place in the standings especially with Atletico Madrid right behind them and with a missing match.

As for the odds of Barcelona making a comeback and winning the game which currently stand at 1.91 as I write this post it could be a good betting opportunity don’t you think?

But good for them that they were able to win this match and still stay at the top of the table.

You could not be any more right about this. The whole game it was Real Sociedad who had more control although Atletico Madrid undeniably had a few shots on target as well. But considering from the point of view of general control during the game, it was Real Sociedad who were in the driving seat most of the time.

The penalty is soo awkward, it is difficult to have an opinion about it. But according to the rules when they enlarge their body surface by using their hand, I think the referee has no choice but to award the penalty. But it's complicated. I am not sure what the rule exactly states, but I think that intention is no requirement? Or is intention a requirement? If it only counts when the body surface is expanded by using the hand or arm, then it is a penalty. But it's not nice to see a great game get decided that way.
