La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[QueenVera]

The truth is that yesterday's match between Real Madrid and Sevilla wasn't simple because both teams were playing well. However, Sevilla truly intended to defeat Madrid, but their defenders' standard at their right position to prevented them from doing so. When the game began, Madrid had a two-goal lead, but both goals were disallowed owing to offsides.

While it is regrettable that Sevilla made the game difficult for Real Madrid, after the game was set to end, Alaba scored their own goal in 74 minutes, and Carvajal attempted to equalize a goal immediately in 78 minutes. I was pleased with that, and at the end of the match, it was a draw, in which Sevilla vs. Real Madrid shared the point.

I you want to Judge base on both teams performance, before the match you'll think Realmadrid wouldn't find it tough to win against Sevilla but the reverse was the case, however if those two canceled goals weren't off-side it would had been very difficult for Sevilla to get an equalizer, however they really tried to hold Realmadrid to a draw, they were lucky David Alaba helped them steal a point from the match, however I love their performance it shows they've improved cause they created more chances in the match than Realmadrid did, even though their possession was more than that of Sevilla's.

 due to the draw Realmadrid and Barcelona are now sharing same points cause Barcelona won Bilbao today, both Spanish giants are now separated by goal difference and who tops the league would now be determined by the El Classico game, which everyone is seriously waiting for this season.

Barcelona against Atletico Bilbao first half

The final result of the match between Barcelona and Atletico Bilbao was 1-0 for Barcelona to win. Even though they played with a squad that wasn't the main team, this time, they did their best. Even though he had difficulty penetrating Bilbao's goal, in the end Marc Gulu was able to get the ball through to them and it became the only goal in the match. Even though they actually have quite big chances, as we know, Atletico Bilbao's defense is quite strong. With this result, the difference in points between Barcelona and the clubs above it is very small, so the competition in La Liga is truly competitive.

Barcelona won this match however they had a hard match against Atletico Bilbao because of the players they couldn't use in this game and I think Atletico Bilbao could even use the chance they had and in this match because if you check the stats you can understand Atletico Bilbao also had some good chances in this match and while Xa had to have the potential for the next La Liga game.
  

Barcelona made lots of goal attempts but many of them were not even effective. Bilbao has a strong defenders and goal keeper and barcelona was stuggling to win the match against bilbao. I must say that this is how important lewandowski is.
In fact, barcelona needs to have lewandowski to increase the effective ness of its attack against its opponent. I can't even imagine barcelona to face stronger competitor like real madrid soon. Barcleona was really strugglet to win the previous match.
The chance owned by barcelona to win the upcoming game is quite small consider the fact that if barcelona was not playing so well.
Lewandowski was helping barcelona to have a proper attack. I think that barcelona can only win with narros score when it was playing without lewandowski.
Barcelona can't really play well without a great striker who can helping in scoring. Many shoots were only straight on the goal keeper as well. No doubt if such stats were not that useful.

[Captain Corporate]

Holy s... now Barcelona has another young player they are going to play? I mean I am not saying that this new kid will be playing every game or something, or maybe he will be gone right back to u19 as soon as they get their players back, but sure looks like he ain't that bad neither. I know that it feels weird for other teams, because we do not end up with youth team players to go up and play that often all the time, most teams just end up buying younger players from other teams, and that means young players do not end up playing on the team they grow up in. However, Barcelona already has 4 players that they raised themselves, that's really an important thing, La Masia is definitely the best youth setup in the whole world.

[snipie]

The final result of the match between Barcelona and Atletico Bilbao was 1-0 for Barcelona to win. Even though they played with a squad that wasn't the main team, this time, they did their best.

Barcelona scored only one goal at a late time. I understand injuries affected the team but Barcelona is quite different from the previous season, a little weaker for me at least in La Liga. Last season they hardly receive goals. They got less than 5 goals for most of the season if I am not mistaken and this time they already received 10 goals after 10 matches. Barcelona are third right now following Girona which got the tie with Real Madrid.

Barcelona's race to the title depends on El Clasico. If Barcelona showed team play in El Clasico in the same way, we hope that Barcelona will win. If the crucial players of Barcelona recover soon, then Barcelona will get more support to clear the point. By the way, Barcelona played well and got more points by trying for the league title.

The situation isn't very well for Real Madrid for the moment. Their game in Champions League is easier than Barcelona's one which might help them recovering faster and be less exhausted when facing each other.

[TelolettOm]

I can't call this performance very well honestly. The first half performance of Barcelona was really poor. I wouldn't have been surprised if they even finished the half 1-0 behind. Thankfully Barcelona started to collect themselves in the second half. We started to watch a much more positive effort from them.

The winning goal still came quite late though but at least they got what they needed from this game. It was the young player Guiu's first game with Barcelona in his career and he must be feeling amazing about scoring a goal only in a minute after entering the game.    He is only 17 years old and I hope this goal makes a good increase in his self-confidence.

I agree with you. It was actually not a very good performance. Barcelona gets difficulty to develop their game in the first half, they played not effectively. They just played better in the second half, and they were lucky that a substituted player could score a single goal. If Xavi didn't release Guiu, the match may end up with a draw result.

According to this match, Barcelona seems too rely on some players in the attacking line, especially with Lewandowski. When Lewandowski can't play, Barcelona is difficult to score goals.

I would say Barcelona played very well. Aim for their squad. I don't find any experienced players in the squad. Then the match strategy that Xavi developed is absolutely admirable. Barcelona have played very well with such a squad. Barcelona played full defensive in the first half. Barcelona did not try to attack too much. However  in the second half, they changed the match strategy. And finally they managed to score a goal. Maybe many people are not happy with such performance of Barcelona. But I would say that despite such an inexperienced squad, Barcelona managed to beat Athletic Bilbao and that was their biggest achievement. I am satisfied with their performance.

[CryptoBuds]

Looking at the squad that is playing at the moment, I would say that Barcelona's attack is very weak and that because of this, betting only on Barcelona's victory would be a high risk.

Betting on Barcelona recently to win has been risky and the times I have done so I had my confidence in their victory go down during the match. I must say Barcelona even with lewandowsky hasn't been at their very best and now it would be worse. In addition atletico Bilbao is not a push over team and the are going to cause Barcelona troubles and they aren't easy to win so it's not a good bet to go with Barcelona outright win.

I refrained from betting on Barcelona to win today's match. The reason is that Barcelona's squad is not strong enough today. It would not be wrong to call this team Barcelona's bench team. And so Barcelona will not be able to do as well as in the previous matches, it has already been predicted. Barcelona's attack today is quite weak. Despite several attacks, they failed to score. Despite playing defensively in the first half, they are not playing defensively in the second half. However, the match seems more likely to be a draw.

But this moments, Barcelona os leading the match with 1:0 and the game is already in 90+ which means that the game is now in extra time and can end any moment from now, and if you have bet that Barcelona will lose then at this point your ataked amount is almost gone and should accept that, how can you under rate a club like Barcelona even though Athletico madrid also is another strong club but that doesn't mean we can underate Barcelona in any ways.
But if all things being equal is already a big win for the Barcelona already and foing forward we should ve looking forward to seeing alot of improvement and their meet ofher strong clubs like Real Madrid and the rest in inbrhe La Liga series.

Barcelona are very lucky that they got 3 points in this match. I wouldn't say that Barcelona had a very good performance. However, apart from the most important players in the squad, Barcelona managed to get 3 points from this match. I would say Barcelona were very lucky in this match. The performance of Athletic Bilbao's players was quite good. Barcelona kept their defense tight in this match. and then attempted to attack. This is why Athletic Bilbao's players can't break Barcelona's defense. Despite Bilbao's good performance, they lost. However, the match was very enjoyable.

[bitLeap]

Last season they have been impressive up to a certain point and I think this is what they will be working on this season to prevent a severe downturn in their performance and not throw away the great effort of a whole season during the last few weeks. At the moment they are looking great and they are playing great. It is enjoyable to see how they play their fast counter attacks and also how much control they have over the games despite not being the team full of superstars. They are working hard with the means they have available and they are doing this in a way that makes it hard for other teams to keep up with them and beat them.

The cooperation of the Girona players and the coach's ingenuity in utilizing his abilities to maximize the match was clearly visible. Even without star players, Girona proved that there was no reason to perform poorly. This season with 8 wins is unbelievable. Achieving 5 goals from Almeria also made the players more optimistic. So this club has become quite scary in my opinion. Girona this season has given a new face to the La Liga competition and deserves success.

Girona squad is not strong. Girona is a mediocre team. I would say that Girona's excellent and consistent performance is due to the hard work of their coach. Also Girona players are very hard working. Girona won 8 out of 10 matches. I didn't think Girona would be able to maintain such consistency. Girona's defense is a bit weak but their attacking players are doing very well. They scored 24 goals in 10 matches. At the moment the highest scorer of La Liga is the Girona team. Madrid scored 21 goals and Barcelona scored 22. Girona has more goals than these two giants. I think Girona will be able to maintain that consistency for the next few weeks.

[Hirose UK]

And this is all proven by the 9 matches that he won 8 times and only lost 1 against Atletico Madrid.
This is big achievement for Real Madrid since the start of the season and we hope that Real Madrid will not only play well in La Liga but also in the UCL.
But Ancelotti must be faced with match that may be little difficult namely against Barcelona but there are several weaknesses in Barcelona that Ancelotti can exploit to make Real Madrid the winner in that match.

Real Madrid should be able to beat Sevilla because so far Sevilla doesn't look that good unlike last season where they were still able to play quite well even though they were classified as middle team in La Liga.

Talking about Ancelotti he will retire next season so we will watch Real Madrid performance with their new coach.

Ancelotti and the squad he has are sure to be consistent in the two best competitions this season, La Liga and the European Champions League. Currently Madrid tops the two points tables in these two competitions, their performance so far is quite promising and they are not showing any signs of decline at all. Regarding the match versus Barcelona "El Clasico" it is very difficult to predict at this time, because the two clubs will have two other matches first, and many things can happen before that.

In a few moments Madrid will face Sevilla, and Barcelona will face Bilbao. Ancelotti and Xavi are required to get through the match without any players getting injured or getting accumulated cards, because these two things will be very detrimental to the respective teams when they meet El Clasico later.

It is true that Ancelotti and Real Madrid have put lot of effort into development for this season resulting in extraordinary achievements in both leagues.
When you look at how they run the match it really shows the consistency of the strength of really solid team.
Well, before El Clasico takes place the two teams will have another match first and here Ancelotti and which is really strong.

Sevilla managed to hold draw against Real Madrid and this was truly extraordinary for Sevilla while Barcelona easily beat Bilbao even though only with a narrow score of 1 - 0.
Initially I thought Real Madrid would be able to win by landslide but things didn't go according to predictions.

[junder]

Barcelona won this match however they had a hard match against Atletico Bilbao because of the players they couldn't use in this game and I think Atletico Bilbao could even use the chance they had and in this match because if you check the stats you can understand Atletico Bilbao also had some good chances in this match and while Xa had to have the potential for the next La Liga game.
  

Even though several key players in the Barcelona squad were absent from this match, such as Frankie De Jong, Lewandowksi, barcelona were still able to dominate the game in today's match. Barcelona was able to record many of the shots they created but they still failed to take advantage of the opportunities that existed to score goals in the first half. Barcelona had to work hard to score a goal in this match where Xavi's men were only able to break the deadlock in the 80th minute.

However, what was interesting in this match was the rotation made by Xavi where he trusted young players for this difficult match. He is Guiu who is 17 years old and this match was his first with the senior team and he was really able to make good use of it by contributing by scoring 1 goal which was able to make barcelona win today's match. Lamine Yamal and Guiu are young players with potential who could become future stars for Barcelona.

With the absence of Barcelona's core players against Athletic Bilbao this does not make Barcelona lose its always slick game, the pressure Athletic Bilbao put on Barcelona made Barcelona hassle on its game, but of course Xavi always has a good solution so Barcelona can maximize its game even without its core players who are absent, with goals scored by Barcelona's young player guiu giving Barcelona a narrow victory, this provides a good point for Barcelona. Athletic Bilbao's intense pressure made it difficult for Barcelona to build attacks but in the end Barcelona were able to break into Athletic Bilbao's goal with goals scored by their young players.

Judging from the other team, Real Madrid, which did not maximize its game because it ended with a draw against Sevilla, I did not expect Real Madrid, which is currently a strong team, could not win against Sevilla, with the young players they have on the front lines who are on the rise, this did not give victory against Sevilla, even though this season Real Madrid is famous for being good at its front line players, but I admit that Real Madrid's game yesterday against Sevilla was not good enough on its front lines so it could not score more goals, with Sevilla's maximum performance so that it could compensate for Real Madrid.

It is very clear that Barcelona experienced a decline in attacks when they were not reinforced by the main players who had always filled the line up. Barcelona played disciplined and very careful in the first half, they were very aware that Bilbao was not easy to beat. I think Barcelona success in getting full points was due to Ter Stegen who performed extraordinary in this match. Barcelona might have conceded more than three goals in the first half if it wasn't for Ter Stegen who guarded their goal.

My personal note this time was Ter Stegen who saved Xavi face, even though Barcelona dominated possession of the ball, but the threat from Bilbao was very dangerous. Support from the defenders supported Barcelona success in beating Bilbao, players like Cancelo and Balde played very well in repelling Bilbao attacks. Luck came after Marc Guiu gave Barcelona the lead. Once again, the La Masia dropout set a record as the youngest Barcelona player in history to score a goal on his debut in La Liga.

[Sebas.tian]

Barcelona against Atletico Bilbao first half

Both teams had their fair share of chances and posed a threat to each other especially the first 20 minutes and last minutes of this first half. Unfortunately, Atletico Bilbao lost a good left back defender Yuri to injury just in first minutes. But, they managed to maintain their defensive lines solid and even outperformed Barcelona by creating more opportunities. So in my opinion Barcelona was significantly affected by their absences, especially in midfield which appeared quite weak today and worse than usual which allowed Bilbao more chances if not for Ter Stegen's savings they would receive many goals.

If we don't see Xavi making tactical adjustments and strengthening the midfield, I would bet that Barcelona might concede at least one goal and probably lose the match today.

The match ended up in the favour of Barcelona 1-0, despite the plan Athletic club planned to disgrace Barcelona in their home but their manager reserved some players in the bench that made the match stronger until they achieved victory from the match at 80 minutes. Athletic club really performed well in this match, because many people predicted for the favour of Barcelona to win the match 3-1 to defeat Athletic club, but from the starting of the match prove that it will not be easy for Barcelona to score such goals because  of how organized Athletic club players organize to stop Barcelona but they failed at the end. I believe, Barcelona will definitely win their next match to move to second position because the three points they got from Athletic club made them to reach third position which is possible for them to win their remaining matches to return back to first position in the la Liga league table.

[LGD2Business]

Barcelona's young talent Marc Guiu played his first professional match at the age of 17 and scored the winning goal. It was an incredible night for him. Xavi's joy says it all, I've never seen him like this.
Athletic Bilbao was a difficult opponent, they resisted well for a long time. But the change of players bore fruit immediately. Guiu scored a goal that he will never forget as soon as he entered the game.
With this result, the point difference decreased to 1. Barcelona caught up with their rivals. On the other hand, Girona still continues to win. I wonder how long their amazing performance will last. I didn't expect it to last this long.

[Republikcoin.com]

Initially I thought Real Madrid would be able to win by landslide but things didn't go according to predictions.

Real Madrid's problem this season only lies in their front line which is unable to work consistently in every match, and what is quite disappointing is that they did not bring in a striker this season to replace the empty position left by Karim Benzema.
Ancelotti has said that he has confidence in the existing squad, but I think the results and poor performance of their front line which continue to be in the spotlight should be used as evaluation material.

However, in the El Clasicco match, I don't think we have to look at the performance of the two teams in their last match, because the Barcelona and Real Madrid match has a different tension, this is a match full of prestige so it is possible for anything to happen, I think nothing will happen favorite in this match.

So this club has become quite scary in my opinion. Girona this season has given a new face to the La Liga competition and deserves success.

Just look at to the records of Girona today that at standings league they had equal points to Real Madrid and occupy second place besides that in the term of goals productivities too Girona currently as the team with the most goals in Laliga even Real Madrid and Barcelona statistics were under him and this is not their first time this season to scores 5 goals in a single match because Girona have done this before when they beat Mallorca few weeks ago
Girona first loses this season happened when they beated by Real Madrid but basically they haven't tested against strong teams just like Atletico Madrid or Barcelona so their consistency is still questionable but next weeked Girona will get more easy opponent Celta and they have good opportunities to gets their 9th winning this season

[Pandu Geddon]

It was clearly a performance that caught the attention of many Xavi fans as they saw the potential the youngster had. Hopefully there will be an opportunity where Xavi will believe in him and give him more playing minutes to prove his ability with the team.
New potential has emerged, and Barcelona will let it shine if they can compete. Moreover, he is still young, with many achievements, it will make his career even more brilliant.

[Litzki1990]

The match between Brazil and Argentina is as popular as the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona. All the drama may be in these matches. The match between Barcelona and Real Madrid is the most high voltage match of all and those who think like me might avoid betting on El Clasico matches. In El Clasico matches the result can change at any time and any team can win against any team. With a minute left in the game, you can't tell which team will win in the end. This is the first El Clasico match of this season where Real Madrid will be slightly ahead of Barcelona according to the current performance. Barcelona have a good chance to do better even if they are slightly ahead so I will only enjoy this match but I will definitely refrain from betting on this match.

I know he won Barcelona the game and gave Barcelona three points, but then, a player like Jaoa Felix, Jaoa Cancelo, Gundogan, Ter Steven and the defenders Balde all won this difficult game.
Before the goal, Atletico Bilbao's attack launched all got stopped by this players. In times of injuries, how Xavi Hernandez manages what he haves great to see. With the win now they have hopes of hurting Real Madrid with injured players set to return from injuries.

Marc Guii was intelligent, running into space for the pass from Felix, had a lovely first touch and he hit the ball with the right power to send that ball in at the back of the goal post.

It was clearly a performance that caught the attention of many Xavi fans as they saw the potential the youngster had. Hopefully there will be an opportunity where Xavi will believe in him and give him more playing minutes to prove his ability with the team.
New potential has emerged, and Barcelona will let it shine if they can compete. Moreover, he is still young, with many achievements, it will make his career even more brilliant.

Xavi giving opportunities to young players is quite good because it is not easy for other coaches to try young players to play against quite strong opponents too, I think because of the circumstances that also pressured him to field Marc Guiu while also giving him the opportunity to make his first debut last night and finally it paid off when he scored his first goal bringing the full three points to Barcelona.

This victory certainly maintains Barcelona's position in third place in the standings and of course Barcelona does not lose points or share points in last night's match. Barcelona must really carry out this experiment to give their players the opportunity to show their abilities, if later Lewandowski is still absent for the El Clasico match in In the next match, at least Xavi can field several players who he thinks are talented to play so that the attack power is not dulled.
