La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[bbigtart]

Enjoyed a very nice match between Valencia vs Cádiz team today in Spanish League. Valencia scored 2 goals in this match and won the match. The first goal was scored by J. Gayá in the first 4 minutes of the game. And the 2nd goal was scored by H. Duro in 26 minutes.  .Cádiz team players performance was very bad that didn't score any goal in this match. Cádiz team goal keeper and other players played very bad. I thought Cádiz could score 1 goal but they didn't score any goal because of their bad performance. 

Of course, Cadiz couldn't score with ten men after Navarro saw a red card after 22 minutes. But Valencia really deserved to win with three points at home.

Velencia is slowly starting to recover, with this victory their confidence is increasing for the next match. I would love to see Valencia one day return to being the 4th power in Spain, they were a strong club in Spain at that time. I hope they will fight until the end of the season with the same spirit, Let's wake up the sleeping giant. With this win I will see if they will return to Europe next season.

When his contract expires, he will certainly consider several options for his benefit but for now, there are even rumors that he has been approached by several Arab clubs for winter transfers in January, but in several statements it seems that Modric does not want to leave too soon and Real Madrid CEO, Jose Angel Sanchez also expects that Modric will be retained until the end of the season.
It would be great if Modric is retained until the end of the season at least because in this case even though he is no longer young but Modric's influence in Madrid's midfield is still very large so it would be ashame if he was allowed to leave. 

It wouldn't be a shame if he was allowed to leave. I think both sides, the player and the club have deep mutual respect. It is obvious that the club has done a lot for Modric and Modric has done a lot for the club. If he really wanted to leave Real Madrid and politely asked for a solution in the upcoming winter, and if Real Madrid decides that they could handle Modric leaving the club as he will leave a small gap, I am sure they would give him the go if the right offer is made. He isn't satisfied at the moment and there are a lot of young players now occupying the midfield of Real Madrid. Even Kroos has to sit on the bench sometimes. This won't change much I guess. But whether Modric is a guy who wants to play in Saudi Arabia, I am not so sure.

They will definitely part ways and that is an unchangeable certainty, but I don't expect Modric to be released in January because he would still be a shame if he was allowed to leave too soon, especially in the middle of the season.
For the end of this season the possibility of him leaving will not be a problem even though there will definitely be a gap left but Madrid can still prepare to optimize the squad well but for the middle of this season it is too fast so indeed I think it will be the wrong decision if Modric is allowed to leave in the winter transfer break this time.

A red card for cadiz has been costing the club so much. Valencia was able scoring another goal after cadiz got a red card which has proven how bad the performance from cadiz. The first goal has been coming from jose gaya and then valencia needs around 20 minutes in adding more goal against cadiz. I thought that cadiz would be playing better but there's no change is happening in this club. Cadiz played so average as a relegation team and that's it.
There's no even need to mention the result caused by valencia is far better than cadiz in term of everything. Cadiz potentially going back again to the relegation zone again if the club will show no improvement to happen.
Im doubting cadiz can survive from the relegation zone this season.

The problem is that Modric is increasingly starting matches on the bench and his contract expires in the summer of 2024. Initially, Modric wants to end his career in Real Madrid, but it is quite possible that if he receives a good contract from another team in which he will have a permanent place in the starting lineup (maybe it will be Saudi Arabia, maybe Inter Miami), then he will think about extending his career.

Modric is 38 years old. That is a very old age for a professional football player. I think Saudi Arabia is a good choice because apart from being able to compete there, clubs in Saudi Arabia also offer big salaries to every European star player. Inter Milan is not a good choice for Modric because he has reached the end of his career. It would be nice to have some time with the family and a lot of money by playing in the Saudi Pro League.

It would not be the right choice for Modric to continue his career as a player and also, it is natural that Modric is often on the bench at this time at Real Madrid. Because after all, Real Madrid has regenerated squad and of course, this is the right way for Real Madrid to consistently play with its young squad. So yes, even if Modric leaves later, the Real Madrid squad is in good shape of course . So, that doesn't mean Modric is no longer needed because after all, Real Madrid also has to do this for a good long-term squad. So yes, I think it would be more appropriate if Modric chose to retire as a Real Madrid player at the end of the season. However, if Modric still has big ambitions to continue playing, then of course the Saudi League is the right choice with a lot of money to be earned before retiring.

This is Luca Madrid's last season for Real Madrid. At the end of the 2023-24 season, we may not see this legend in the Real Madrid jersey again. Real Madrid have only extended the Croatian star's contract by one year and next season, Real Madrid's contract with Luca Madrid will expire and Luka Madrid may end his football career or join a new club.

Luca Madrid is now one of the oldest players in football so it is natural that he will not be able to perform like before and every team will want to give such a player a chance to perform on the field instead of sitting him on the bench. The player that Real Madrid put in the XI instead of Luca Madrid has been doing great for Real Madrid in the position of Luca Madrid, so it is much more challenging for Luka Madrid to return to the field and we will see him in very few matches this season.

Sergio Ramos knows very well the strategy that Ancelotti will implement and has proven that he is able to make it difficult for Real Madrid's front line to score goals. He also made a number of saves in this match and it is true that Sergio Ramos is still the best defender at the moment, even though he is no longer young and the pressing intensity is no longer the same as in previous seasons. Sevilla's defense was so solid and neat that they were able to break down a number of opportunities which Real Madrid is trying to build and even though statistically Real Madrid really dominates the match.

Rodrygo had several good opportunities in front of goal to score, but his lack of finishing meant these opportunities were wasted. This is the worry that Ancelotti actually needs to be aware of because when Jude Belligham is unable to score a goal it will have quite an impact on the result of the match.

Real Madrid was competent on winning Sevilla but 2 goals scored was ruled out and this incident gave Los Blancos hard time to score another. Sevilla was able to to absorb all the presssurebl coming in from Madrid and were also able to reciprocate at the same time. That's basically one incredible level of the team. Sergio Ramos was the main threat in the formidable defense wall built against Los Blancos frontlines. Real Madrid did possess numerous chances to make the differences on the scoresheet but their attempts was declined by Sevillw tough defensive strategy. Both sides were held to draw tie.

This is Luca Madrid's last season for Real Madrid. At the end of the 2023-24 season, we may not see this legend in the Real Madrid jersey again. Real Madrid have only extended the Croatian star's contract by one year and next season, Real Madrid's contract with Luca Madrid will expire and Luka Madrid may end his football career or join a new club.

Luca Madrid is now one of the oldest players in football so it is natural that he will not be able to perform like before and every team will want to give such a player a chance to perform on the field instead of sitting him on the bench. The player that Real Madrid put in the XI instead of Luca Madrid has been doing great for Real Madrid in the position of Luca Madrid, so it is much more challenging for Luka Madrid to return to the field and we will see him in very few matches this season.

The correct spelling is Luka Modric my friend, Modric contract will end on June 30 2024, which coincides with the end of the season, and this is indeed his last season in the Los Blancos uniform. However, if management renews the contract in the short term, it is still very possible, even though he is no longer as young as we know. Being the most senior player in the current squad makes him a role model for other players, both on and off the field. Modric deserves to be called a club legend, and has achieved a lot of success while defending Madrid. His future is currently still unclear, and there has been no statement from Modric himself, I hope he chooses to just retire in Madrid.

Currently Modric no longer gets full playing minutes, but that doesn't mean Ancelotti doesn't use his services at all. His role is still really needed in the main squad, especially in big matches that are full of pressure. However, the last match against Sevilla put Modric and Toni Kroos in the spotlight, Ancelotti had the pros and cons of playing both at the same time it was only the last 23 minutes, so Madrid must be willing to end the match with a draw. Personally, I don't think the two veteran players should be blamed for the draw.

I don't understand what you are saying about Atletico because after all, in reality, of the 9 matches that Atletico have played so far this seson the reality is Atletico managed to get 7 wins. But I wonder, why do you say Atletico have never won for four weeks in a row, have you checked that assessment, or have I misunderstood your writing? After all, even though for example Celta Vigo played with a complete squad of 11 players in this match, but I personally still believe that Atletico will still win. So yes, I think with the red card that Celta Vigo had and playing with 10 players this match, at least this fact only allowed Atletico to win with a good score because the match ended with 0-3.

I am surprised that the dude didn't do the calculations on the basis of favoring or commending the efforts of Atletico Madrid. Because if he did, he will be quick to at least commend the efforts of the club so far.

1. Atletico Madrid is positioned as the 4th club in the table after Real Madrid, Girona and Barcelona which is generally commendable.

2. Out of the 9 matches that the club has played in the league, they were able to conceive 7 matches with goals over their opponents which makes it just a one match difference of win and lose between them and Real Madrid when you factor in the matches they've played so far. Realize that Madrid, Girona and Barca are in their 10th matches.

3. Also realize that, Atletico Madrid has drawn and lose in only one match which is equivalent to Real Madrid and Girona whereas Barcelona have drawn 3 matches although with no lose.

4. There is possibility that Atletico Madrid will top the table should in case they win their next match against Alaves which is predicted like so. Especially when they trash them with more goals, they will have the chance to top the table as they will rise from 22 points to 25 points on the table.

And so many more things to compare or juxtapose. So why will someone go out there to easily downgrade the efforts of the club so far?

In the closing match of the week, Valencia defeated Cadiz at home. Atletico Madrid had not won for four weeks in a row after defeating the three Couliers, but as of today they managed to end this winless streak and win with a good game against their opponents. The hosts, who took the lead with a goal in the early minutes, made good use of their opponents' ten men and managed to take a 2-0 lead four or five minutes after the opponents were down to ten men. With the end of the first half, the result of the match was actually determined.

I think he is making reference to Celta Vigo, who have just won one match, drawn three, and lost six so far this season; but with Atletico Madrid, I think he got it wrong because they only lost one match to Sevilla, drew one against Betis, and won seven out of the nine matches they have already played in the La Liga this season. Moreover, I think they are stronger this season compared to last season because they won Real Madrid this season, and with the momentum they carry this season, I am sure they will fight for the league title along with Barcelona and Real Madrid.

  Excellent description of the pause for international games. But only there was not a month, but only 2 weeks. Atletico have 6 wins in their last 6 games (including the Champions League) and by the way, if you take into account the lost points, they now share first place with Real, as does Girona. I wouldn't be surprised if they become (for a while) sole leaders or continue to keep pace with Real - they have an easy calendar of games.

[rahmad2nd]

Modirch is now 38 years old. It is certain that he will not be in La Liga next season. Madrid will not keep such an old player in the squad. They are very conscious about spending money. And Madrid have already got Bellingham as Modrich's replacement. Bellingham is doing great with Madrid.
It seems most likely that Modrich will be in the USA next season. Saudi clubs will certainly offer high money, but Saudi Arabia is a Muslim country. There are many restrictions in Saudi Arabia. So perhaps Modrich would prefer a move to the USA. Messi and Modrich are expected to share the same dressing room if Modric does not retire.

If Modric receives offers from several Saudi clubs, we have heard that several Saudi clubs are interested in using his services. Even though this midfielder is no longer at a young age. Uniquely, Modric rejected it if I didn't misread the rumors at that time. This season, is his last season with Real Madrid. It would be very natural if Madrid management would no longer extend his contract. remember, Los Blancos now have several young midfielders and several other established midfielders as second line players.

Well, referring to what you said, to be honest I haven't heard any rumors that Modric is interested in continuing his career if he ends his contract with Madrid. In fact, I haven't heard any rumors that Modric will move to MLS. Or maybe, I'm not following the latest developments regarding the departure of several players, especially veteran Real Madrid players.
IMO, how cool would it be if Modric really retired and ended his career as a Real Madrid Legend with the loyalty and work ethic he gave to the club and team. and Madrid, must give him appreciation for his dedication while defending Real Madrid.

So yes, I think it would be more appropriate if Modric chose to retire as a Real Madrid player at the end of the season. However, if Modric still has big ambitions to continue playing, then of course the Saudi League is the right choice with a lot of money to be earned before retiring.

There have been speculations about Modric being invited by Cristiano Ronaldo to Al Nassr for quite a long time, but until now the news has not happened, recently Madrid management said that they would not intend to sell Modric to an Arab club even in January 2024 transfer market, but I am sure those words will not last long, so far Modric's playing time has decreased drastically, he may have to insist on moving if Madrid continues to keep him, Modric is one of the world's greatest midfielders even though he is no longer young, the team that got him is very lucky.

[Ndabagi01]

The SPL can be an escape for players to earn more money or players who will soon announce their retirement. Because the SPL also doesn't really care about age, because what is their focus right now is to continue to increase the popularity of their football in the eyes of the world.
Modric is also still in good form, his decline is nothing but due to age, and it is something that is very natural. But his ability to keep the midfield is still very good and that can be a good consideration for teams that want to sign him, especially teams in the SPL.

I doubt Modric will want to join a league like that, which many people have labelled as a money-making league. A league where players go to make money rather than for the pure joy of playing football. Not only Modric, but also Kroos, is in wonderful form, and the top teams in the SPL would want to have them play for them, which will be extremely tough to do at the moment. Maybe they should concentrate on other players, considering none of these players have expressed an interest in playing for them.

I think he is making reference to Celta Vigo, who have just won one match, drawn three, and lost six so far this season; but with Atletico Madrid, I think he got it wrong because they only lost one match to Sevilla, drew one against Betis, and won seven out of the nine matches they have already played in the La Liga this season. Moreover, I think they are stronger this season compared to last season because they won Real Madrid this season, and with the momentum they carry this season, I am sure they will fight for the league title along with Barcelona and Real Madrid.

I also have great hopes for Atletico Madrid to win La Liga this season; they've put in a strong performance this season and ended Real Madrid's unbeaten streak. Atletico Madrid is presently fourth in the rankings with 22 points. They've played nine matches, with one outstanding match, and there's only three points separating them from the first and second-place teams in the standings right now. This has caused the point gaps in the top four to close, indicating how competitive first place will be this season.

Real Madrid CEO José Ángel Sánchez has denied that there is any negotiation between Real Madrid and any Saudi club for the sale of the midfield maestro. He further clarified that the club has no intention to lay off  Luka Modric because he is an important player. The ball is in the court of the Croatian legend, it is up to him to decide if he wants to go for money or to remain in his dream club. Although his playing time in Madrid has reduced since Jude Bellingham joined the club he is still strong and can also serve as a mentor to younger players. However, he shouldn't expect to be regular except Jude is not playing. And I know that Coach Carlo Ancelotti is keeping him as a standby in case Bellingham is out of play. 

[el kaka22]

Girona getting yet another win is definitely a big deal, those guys are doing something magical and I do not think that anyone expected them to have this kind of season at all, it is a shock to everyone, it must be at some point shock to even Girona as well, I do not think that players and the staff there expected to be this good before the season started as well, it's really cool to see them keep getting wins. They are tied at the top right now with Real Madrid and I think that's as big of an achievement as they could hope for.

I still do not think that they can hang in there, I still think that they are going to have a period where they lose points back to back and drop from the top, but it is a big achievement to be there for them even right now.

[Leviathan.007]

17 years old and made one winning goal. Yes, I am quite amazed by this young man. Marc Guiu came on and in the 33rd second he scored, this was his senior debut game. This goal also gave Barcelona a 1-0 win over Athletic Bilbao. Perhaps this is also the luck of the injured Robert Lewandowski and Frenkie de Jong. Marc Guiu took Xavi off his players and gave him minutes in place of Fermin Lopez. I don't think Xavi and Guiu are lucky, but this gives Guiu a lot of confidence.

Soon we are going to have Barcelona against Real Madrid and this game is very important for both teams because this time Real Madrid is in a better situation than Barcelona and they got expensive players like Jude Bellingham who is really talented and he even scored goals for this team instead of the forwards.
But the situation for Barcelona is not good at all and since Lewandowski is injured, Xavi asked the teams to make this player ready for this great match they are going to have against Real Madrid.

Soon we are going to have Barcelona against Real Madrid and this game is very important for both teams because this time Real Madrid is in a better situation than Barcelona and they got expensive players like Jude Bellingham who is really talented and he even scored goals for this team instead of the forwards.
But the situation for Barcelona is not good at all and since Lewandowski is injured, Xavi asked the teams to make this player ready for this great match they are going to have against Real Madrid.

This is the most Anticipated match in the Laliga currently and it's going to be very tough for both sides cause its a battle for who would be at the top position, Realmadrid are top the league but they're only gaping Barcelona with goal  difference cause they share same points, I they win they'll top the league with 3points but if Madrid wins they'll remain at the 1st place and also top Barcelona win 3points.

 Well I agree to your statement that Madrid looks more favorable in the game, they got more if their senior player currently fit to face Barcelona, however Barcelona featuring their star player Lewandowski that not fully feat could be a very big risk cause his situation would get worsen in a match like this, i think Xavi Alonso should start him in the game so he won't play full time, he could make a super Sub for them.

[marcous]

Girona getting yet another win is definitely a big deal, those guys are doing something magical and I do not think that anyone expected them to have this kind of season at all, it is a shock to everyone, it must be at some point shock to even Girona as well, I do not think that players and the staff there expected to be this good before the season started as well, it's really cool to see them keep getting wins. They are tied at the top right now with Real Madrid and I think that's as big of an achievement as they could hope for.

I still do not think that they can hang in there, I still think that they are going to have a period where they lose points back to back and drop from the top, but it is a big achievement to be there for them even right now.

Who is not surprised by what Girona achieved in 10 matches in La Liga, topping the standings with the same points record as Real Madrid and beating Barcelona and ATM below them. Of course, this achievement was not just luck, but rather the result of a combination of a genius coach and quality players, resulting in a team performance that was classified as miraculous. If you look at their future matches, the chance of winning seems quite big, and they will compete closely with Madrid. One draw against Sociedad, and one defeat against Madrid, the other eight matches were swept clean with wins, very impressive.

It is not an exaggeration if they are now called the dark horse in La Liga, even though it remains to be seen how far their consistency can last. If they manage to finish in the top four of the standings at the end of the season, then next season we will see Girona appear in the UCL. Although it is unrealistic to say so at this time, it seems that they are already heading in that direction. Without expensive star players, Girona is able to compete with elite clubs in La Liga.

So much have been said about this game as it's no news that it's between two big teams in the la Liga and it's definitely going to be interesting as one of the most anticipated in Spain currently, both teams are hoping to play at maximum capacity,(with their complete squads) because it's a very important match for them both as it will determine who has got the best of strength in comparison.

It's seems Barcelona would be having a weak spot with the intended featuring of lewandoski who is just recovering from injury, rumors have it that after this game he might go back for further treatment, which may mean he is not fully recovered. I don't know why Barcelona would want to put up such a risk when they have hot good substitute, nevertheless I hope he doesn't play full time else he may get another injury that may further worsen his current state. Bellingham is my greatest anticipation in this match as his performance always gat me wanting to see more of him, obviously Madrid is at an advantage in this game but till then I look forward to the out come but I'm not placing a bet on this game.

[Marykeller]

that's because Madrid faced Sevilla, many people thought it would be easy to get a win. I also thought like that at first, but looking at Madrid's game yesterday, they looked confused in the final solution. They created opportunities but seemed to have difficulty breaking down Sevilla's defense.
It wasn't even the striker who scored the goal for Madrid, it seemed that Madrid's attack line was experiencing problems. Even Madrid's defense also came under pressure from Sevilla which resulted in an own goal.

My last week's booked game was Real Madrid to win Sevilla, having them draw in that match was what I never expected from Real Madrid. I was annoyed with the result outcome because I knew the position Real Madrid stood at the Laliga table(number 1) when compared with Sevilla(below 10th).
To me, Real Madrid could have won because of that without finding it difficult to break Sevilla's defense

Upcoming match waiting for El Clasico against Barcelona, its very essential games if want to make points gap or keep secure first standings position and Madrid should win on first El Clasico match this season.

I am looking forward to such a match on Saturday. The last time we had an El Clasico match was around March and Barcelona won by 2 goals to one goal(2-1) against Real Madrid. Now, they are going to meet again in Barcelona home. It can be a win for Barcelona again or not.
