La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[red4slash]

Will Girona this season make a surprise until the end of the season until they win the La Liga title like Leicester City did in the 2015 Premier League season?

Even if there is still hope about this kind of miracle but I think this depends on their performance in the matches that will continue to take place because after all when reflecting on Leicester in the 2015 season by winning the EPL they have a level of consistency that is extraordinary. Girona are still capable of doing that but the season is still very long because now we are only in week 12 which means there are still 26 more weeks to go through and of course if they really want to get better and even compete until the end then they must be able to be consistent until that day.
Now they are at the top but currently Madrid are still behind them and it could be in today's match Madrid again shift Girona from the top of the standings even though now Madrid and Rayo still have no goals scored but if you see the dominance that is happening now I think it will be possible for Madrid to get 3 points in this match.

Barcelona still has a chance to defend the La Liga title, even though they are currently behind Girona and Madrid. It is indeed difficult to always win, but Barcelona must try as hard as possible not to stumble. Apart from that, Barcelona also has to ensure that its players do not much get injured. I think Girona also has a chance to finish in the top four and play in the Champions League. they must continue to win by beating weak teams in La Liga to make their dream come true.

On the other hand determining the top of the standings will be determined by the result of the match between Madrid versus Rayo which is currently underway. I think Los Blancos can win and Bellingham will score the deciding goal. however if they draw or lose, Girona will be very profitable.

Barcelona has not lost any of its chances of defending the title this season, but I admit that Barcelona's defense this season is not as good as last season. Lewandowski, who is plagued by injuries, means he is not as sharp as last season, but Lewandowski can still improve and get into his best form considering that this season is still very long.

Barcelona must improve with each match and take advantage of every opportunity to win when its competitors this season have dropped points. Girona and Real Madrid are still consistent in winning, but it is very possible that their performance will be disrupted for one reason or another. Currently Real Madrid is still playing a goalless draw against Rayo Vallecano even though they dominate the match.

The case of Girona this moment and Leicester in the past is obviously different because anyway, in the past when Leicester managed to be consistent until win the Premier League title. But at the same time in the past, in fact the top teams there experienced a decline in performance. But about Girona at the moment, the fact is that Real Madrid are also still in the title race so far this season in all competitions and also, about Atletico even though are sometimes inconsistent, but in fact Atletco are still in good contention in the top four as well. Also about Barcelona, the fact is that so far this season Barcelona has also only got 1 losing result and thus, it is clear that Real Madrid, Atletico and Barcelona are still in good performance and competition in the top four and the La Liga title race. So yes, if at this moment Girona are still very consistent and still the best in La Liga, then such results can no longer be underestimated and maybe, Girona able to make a big surprise this season.

Girona form being compared to Leicester’s title run form wouldn’t be a bad idea except for the fact that the big dogs like Real Madrid and Barcelona who are known to challenge seriously for the title especially with the Young Galacticos Jude Bellingham who’s on fine form and Joao Felix who has added the spice to the Barcelona attack.

 Atletico Madrid is a good side though not very consistent in form but could still pose a threat for a top 3 finish, but with Girona fine start to the league I think the top 4 spot is going to be a big one for them to play in the UCL next season, i think consistency will play a big role in the team’s top 4 finish but lack of financial power could be a big factor. Neverthelessfootball is full of surprises so let’s sit back and enjoy.

I'm not so sure they'll win the La Liga trophy, but then, they have a solid seat of players and it is obvious they're good in comebacks as that game was the second come back into the game for Girona I've seen.
Jaoa Felix indeed, he has adapted nicely. Playing for Atletico a club that defense too much doesn't supports his football and his growth glad to see a player knowing his worth!

I do think it's time Atletico Madrid part ways with Diego Simeone. He has made a great players outta the club and also sold products. The top four looks competitive and interesting. Girona are really paying the price for them top!

[Leviathan.007]

Barcelona should be glad that they got away with a win there, they are already a bit behind, it's early in the season yet so it's too early to say anything but they are not looking all that great and got three points at the last minutes a few times, this time it was defensive player Araujo ending up at the head place right time and that is very lucky for them.

The offside situation was just a few centimeters away from as well so it could have been easily offside with just a smaller amount of step, and they got lucky and it wasn't offside and won at 90+2 so it's really a very tough three points that they won. I think if they keep this up, the yare going to get worse and worse results, they need to dominate a lot more during the games.

Marc-André ter Stegen started talking about his future in Barcelona and he said he was going to stay there for a long time and even get retired there in Barcelona.
His contract will end in 2028 and he will be a 36-year-old player but he still wants to extend his contract and stay there for a longer time and maybe that's how he wants to prove his loyalty to Barcelona.

Girona is back as the temporary leader of La Liga after winning the match against Osasuna this week.
Have you all seen the current La Liga standings that look a little strange?
Every time I look at the La Liga standings, I always think about how many weeks Girona will pull off this surprise. At first I underestimated them, but now I am increasingly convinced that Girona is really a strong and consistent team.
Will Girona this season make a surprise until the end of the season until they win the La Liga title like Leicester City did in the 2015 Premier League season?

You are right about the surprise and its difficult for any other team to win against this highly motivated Girona. But Real Madrid are only 1 goal away of the top of the league and that should come in the next 40 minutes. I would bet on Bellingham, he has always score the goal in the past. They would have 31 points, the same as Girona, but Real has scored more goals, which means 1st place for them.

[püsür]

Local media in my country wrote that Guller will soon debut against this week. Guller suffered a recurrent knee injury, so from the completion of the transfer to date he has not received minutes in official matches. If true this is certainly good news, because Anceloti has other options to rotate players. Another hope is that Madrid are getting stronger, in possession of the ball. So they are easier to make set play games. Even now, the most visible problem is attackers

Arda Guler has recovered and I am happy to see him on the bench and ready to play in today's match. I think Ancelotti has the desire to give him his debut in today's game, but it all depends on how tight the game will be. If Real Madrid had been more than 2 goals ahead of Rayo Vallecano, then I can expect Arda Guler to get his debut.

Of course I've been very curious about him since his arrival, but today everything seems possible after his long recovery process. But anyway, I think this is not an easy match for Real Madrid so there is no reason why they should underestimate Rayo Vallecano's low probability. Arda can hope for a debut, but we'll just have to wait and see how the match goes.

He is expected to play right now. This match is definitely an ideal match for Arda Guler. It's not a high tempo match, it's a tempo that rises from time to time. At the end of the first half, neither team could find a goal. Real madrid couldn't take advantage of the opportunities they created, Rayo Vallecano's defence is better than their attack. Ancelotti said he would give time for Arda Guler to play in this game, we expect Arda Güler to be involved in the second half.

[Furious 7]

Now they are at the top but currently Madrid are still behind them and it could be in today's match Madrid again shift Girona from the top of the standings even though now Madrid and Rayo still have no goals scored but if you see the dominance that is happening now I think it will be possible for Madrid to get 3 points in this match.

60 minutes had passed but the score remained unchanged until now. Madrid's dominance in this match is unquestionable, it's just that they haven't had any really threatening chances so far and their on-target play has been a little poor given what's happened in the first half and second half so far.
But even if that's the case I still feel this will be a win for Madrid because after all now they only continue to make the same attacks so that Rayo players find it difficult to maintain their concentration in defense, besides that we also know that Madrid always has an all out attack in crucial minutes so by looking at the squad playing at this time my hopes are still very big for them to be able to create goals in the remaining time and secure 3 points back in week 12.

Girona appeared impressive this season, their performance surprised everyone because they managed to put up quite a good fight at the top of the standings. As we saw in the previous season, of course there were only Barcelona and Real Madrid competing in the standing, but this season Girona wants to make a big difference if they are able to maintain their consistency until the end of the season.

Yes, if we look at the Girona team, of course they didn't make a big investment in last season transfer window, so their strength is purely in terms of the player hard work. And also supported by the coach way of providing stronger strategies in each match. I hope they are able to do their best in the upcoming match because there are many remaining match that they have to focus on in maintaining their ranking.

At 66 minutes,Real Madrid  are still playing 0:0 with Rayo Vallecano. This game is be coming hard for Madrid to win,and of a truth,this weekend has really been tough for the big teams.Almost all the big teams in the different leagues found it difficult to defeat their opponent,the only team that played and won without stress was Manchester City. Real Madrid are ongoing now with Vallecano,which they are find it it really difficult to find the back of the net.Athletico Madrid lost theirs to tell you how the games are now becoming competitve,both the premier league and the Laliga.I will be waiting till the end of the game between Madrid and Rayo Vallecano to see if Madrid will be able to grind out a win.

[aylabadia05]

Real Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano is still playing 0-0 without a single goal scored. The match entered the final minutes of the second half.
If Real Madrid can be held to a goalless draw, then Girona will be at the top of the standings with a difference of 2 points and Rayo Vallecano will make it the first draw in the history of the total of meetings between the two since 2011.

The final 10 minutes of the Real Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano match at the Santiago Bernabeu were quite tense. Is it possible for Rayo to get 1 point and put Real Madrid in second place in the La Liga standings?

It's so difficult to predict the outcome of a football match these days as the big teams seem not to be living up to expectations as they ought to,  Madrid flopping during the in this game gives one cause for concern as the weekend turned out to be a bad one for some europe's elite clubs perhaps we do hope that next weekend turns out to be better for them but whilst we patiently wait for that to happen we re hoping to see real Madrid snatch a late minute win.

I do think it's time Atletico Madrid part ways with Diego Simeone. He has made a great players outta the club and also sold products. The top four looks competitive and interesting. Girona are really paying the price for them top!

However much you believe that Atletico Madrid needs another coach, I believe Diego Simeone is a great coach and still worth fighting for. Diego Simeone does not have to be fired and replaced by another coach, unless Diego Simeone leaves on his own to get a better challenge in another league. Atletico Madrid is certainly worthy of considering anything for the good and progress of the team, but who is the coach most worthy of replacing Diego Simeone who has a strong character in producing great players like Atletico Madrid players?

I believe Atletico Madrid will have great difficulty finding a suitable replacement coach if Diego Simeone leaves the team at the end of this season or is fired, in fact I really believe that Atletico Madrid's performance will never be the same in the hands of another coach. Atletico Madrid has many players with good defensive characteristics, maybe Jose Mourinho is suitable for them.

Real Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano, nothing has happened yet. The score was still the same at 0-0, the tension was high because Vallecano wanted to waste time.

[Ryu_Ar1]

Madrid's match entered extra time now but the score is still unchanged.
Honestly, I wasn't expecting this as I wanted 3 points for Madrid but if it's a 1 point game then it'll be a great week for Girona as they can comfortably secure top spot for at least another week.
Madrid were very good in attack but they wasted a lot of chances in this game which is the problem. It looks like Week 12 won't be a good one for some of the big clubs as after the shock of Atletico yesterday it's now Madrid who are still struggling to get 3 points against Rayo.

I am sure that almost everyone who watched this fight thinks Madrid will win this match because Madrid continues to attack, I have attached the statistics of this match on screenshots and see Madrid control the match with 22 shots but hasn't managed to score a goal, Madrid play with the main squad including Bellingham but somehow they always fail in scoring. Now Girona is again taking over the standings and Madrid 2 points adrift of Girona and 2 points from Barcelona, it seems that competition will continue when Madrid opens opportunities for Barcelona. If Barcelona won in the last El Clasico match maybe those who are in second place replacing Real Madrid.

After 23yrs Rayo was able to draw Real Madrid at home, this was a big record for them today as Rayo stays on clean shit as Dimitrievski made some dangerous save which would have be a goal. Real Madrid tried their best in the second half but they were unlucky to net the post and they lost the record that they have been keeping for 23yts.

Jude Bellingham couldn't come to the aid of Real Madrid at the last minute of the game just like the way he do secure victory for Real Madrid in seven won matches this season. Girona is comfortable sitting on top of the table as they are using two points to be ahead of Real Madrid and four points ahead of Barca. It will be surprising that Girona will win the league this season, if they can be consistent till the end.

This is a very disappointing performance coming from the Madrid side, as many would expect them to go out and win the game, it happened to be that they couldn't take advantage of their chances. Is as if they're relaxed or should I say getting ready for champions league game that's why they drew, but I can't imagine a team that's known for going out and winning every game and securing the 3pt would drop point at this stage.
Champions League games ain't suppose to make Madrid lose or draw a game everyone thought they win, to me I feel Madrid are gradually losing that touch of brilliance, with time they won't be that sharp on the field of play and it will hunt them very well. To me the Braga game in the champions league shouldn't be a problem for them to draw tonight's game.

Playing at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium against a team like Rayo Vallecano I was of the opinion that the Real Madrid players were gonna score so many goals but unfortunately for Carlo Ancelotti's men the game ended up in a goalless draw. It was the first game since the start of the season that neither Real Madrid or their opponents could not find the back of the net.
Rayo Vallecano I know must have been very happy with the result because it's actually not an easy task to take a point away from the Santiago Bernabeu as a visiting team.

[Slow death]

Real Madrid, who played against Rayo Vallecano, failed to score any goals, at least they didn't concede any goals and thanks to that the game ended in a draw. rayo vallecano in the last 4 games had 3 draws while real madrid in the last 4 games had 1 draw. A scenario like this is more likely for the game to be a draw, which is why I'm not surprised by this result, which leaves Real Madrid in second place and Barcelona in third place. What really shocks me is seeing Girona in first place and with a gap of 2 points over Real Madrid and a gap of 4 points over Barcelona.

And the funniest thing about this is that when you look at these 3 top teams: Girona, Real Madrid and Barcelona, you realize that Real Madrid's defense is very good, they only conceded 8 goals in 12 games, Barcelona's defense is terrible in this one. season compared to last season, in 12 games they have already conceded 12 goals. but Giron's defense in 12 games has already conceded 15 goals, I don't know how the hell they are at the top, but with their defense, I highly doubt they will be able to stay at the top for many rounds, at some point real madrid or barcelona will be at the top top and with a distance of points in relation to other teams

if atlético madrid had won their game, and they won again in the next game, then they would be at the top, but unfortunately atlético madrid is not a candidate team for the title, every season they play to only be in one of the places to access European competitions. something very regrettable

 Atletico Madrid is a good side though not very consistent in form but could still pose a threat for a top 3 finish, but with Girona fine start to the league I think the top 4 spot is going to be a big one for them to play in the UCL next season, i think consistency will play a big role in the team’s top 4 finish but lack of financial power could be a big factor. Neverthelessfootball is full of surprises so let’s sit back and enjoy.

In my opinion, Girona will not be too strong to maintain their concentration to be able to maintain their ranking until the end of the competition. Even though this week Girona was able to widen the point gap with Barcelona or Real Madrid, I'm sure that with so many games remaining in this season it will be difficult for them to maintain their best form. But I am also amazed by Girona performance this season, but Real Madrid and Barcelona are the favorite team to win the title this season.

Yes, maybe Girona will be compared to Leicester City if they succeed in winning the title this season. Girona opportunities are huge and they must maximize this season as their best season. I will be looking forward to the Girona vs Barcelona match because this match will measure how consistent they are in achieving their target of winning the title. Previously Girona lost to Real Madrid and if they lose to Barcelona their chances will certainly be quite slim to maintain their ranking.

Real Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano is still playing 0-0 without a single goal scored. The match entered the final minutes of the second half.
If Real Madrid can be held to a goalless draw, then Girona will be at the top of the standings with a difference of 2 points and Rayo Vallecano will make it the first draw in the history of the total of meetings between the two since 2011.

The final 10 minutes of the Real Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano match at the Santiago Bernabeu were quite tense. Is it possible for Rayo to get 1 point and put Real Madrid in second place in the La Liga standings?

In the end, this match ended with a score of 0-0. and yep, as I said in the previous post. In this match, Madrid cannot underestimate Rayo. In fact, it is not uncommon for Rayo to always make things difficult for top teams when they meet against them. In almost every match against big teams, Rayo will play closely to cover gaps in their defense. In the previous match, Rayo also held Real Sociedad to a draw. That's why I said in the previous post, if the betting option in this match is the ideal option, the under 3 goals option. because I'm sure there won't be many goals in this match. It's just that, I didn't think that the result would be 0-0.

Madrid actually dominated the game, with 22 total shots, 5 on target, but only had 2 big chances. tactically, Madrid is much better. So, this match seems to be going in one direction. because Rayo didn't have a single shot on target, even for big chances. Madrid played very well, unfortunately they were unable to take advantage of the opportunities they had. As a result, Madrid had to be satisfied with gaining 1 point. So, Girona remains safe in its position for the time being with a difference of 2 points from Madrid. Uniquely, next week Girona will visit Rayo's home ground.

Well, in my opinion, it's only a matter of time for Madrid or Barcelona to shift Gorina's ranking.
