La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[makishart]

The three points scored by Girona at home to Rayo Vallecano meant they managed to maintain first position, Real Madrid's 5-1 victory over Valencia was unable to bring Ancelotti's troops up to the highest ranking because Girona managed to turn things around after trailing 1-0. Until the 13th week of the La Liga competition, Girona was still able to maintain its best performance by always achieving positive results. Hopefully Girona will not slip up like Tottenham experienced in the last two matches in the Premier League, Girona must appear consistent in order to maintain competition for the title.

Girona has a very good determination this season they are not joking with any team this season, so of course they will not allow the trophy to sleep through there hand just as Tottenham Hotspur did and they drop from first position to the third position on there table so I don't think is ready to take any chances.

So perhaps if Girona could maintain there winings they will surely come out victorious, so there prayers now should be that real Madrid should be losing there matches in other for Girona to gap them with many points different because real Madrid is there only threat they have.

That's a mistake being made by rayo's coach. Instead of using a defensive counterattack, the coach chose to stick with the offensive strategy against Girona. I think that rayo has a chance to get three points from this match as long as rayo was changing the strategy into the defensive strategy.
This is the main mistake of the club. Using low blocks will help the club so much in defending from its opponents. Rayo's coach needs to learn a lot from his mistake.

He needs to change strategy once rayo was leading the game.

One surprised me about the game and all the goals was that Bellingham wasnt there, but he is injured so they didnt want to take the risk of it getting worse. He is first in La Liga with 10 goals in 11 games, which is twice as good as the second player in the Real Madrid team. Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo both scored 2 goals against Valencia and they havent scored togehter so many goals than Bellingham. Rodrygo 3 goals in 13 games and Vinicius Junior 4 goals in 10 games. So Girona are still on first place, I think that will change on matchday 16 when they play vs Barcelona.

Bellingham wasn't the only key player that was absent in that match, Rudiger was absent, Bellingham was with his mom in corner of the stadium all smiling, Tchouameni and Militao and in all of these players, they are spectacular players to Real Madrid, even when Bellingham wasn't present in the yesterday match against Valencia, he was making good comment about him. I hope to see him back to the team very soon because he is the least among them with a minor injury and I don't want to see him back down from that highest goal scorer honor be hijack by another player.

Girona is still not any sign of weakness and I'm not sure if they were the teams I use to watch, they have only lost to Real Madrid and since then, not a single loss and we are now in week 13 of the season. It seems they will last long in the top 4 but let's see how they play against Atletic club. Those guys are in good form and I don't think they are going to entertain Girona even though they are visitors to Estadi Municipal.

Actually, Bellingham's absence is not very visible because Real Madrid is facing a team whose quality is below theirs, so Bellingham's absence can be covered by other players, but if they face a stronger team, I think Real Madrid without Bellingham will have difficulties.
And indeed in the last 2 matches without Bellingham, Real Madrid's front line performance has been better, and that is a positive thing.

Girona has been very consistent so far, and they are quite good at taking advantage of the decline and inconsistency of Barcelona and Real Madrid so that Girona can now be at the top of the standings. If the two top La Liga teams cannot recover and maintain consistency then it is not impossible that they will be left behind even further. far behind Girona in the standings.

It's unusual for Real Madrid to win with a landslide score like this and they did it against Valencia last night. A total of 5 goals were scored by Real Madrid players and I am happy that Rodrygo and Vinicius have finally returned to their best performance. These two players from Brazil both scored braces in this match. Apart from that, of course the opening goal was scored by Dani Carvajal who took advantage of an assist from Toni Kroos.

Goalkeeper Andrey Lunin also performed quite well despite that
finally he conceded at the end of the match by a goal scored by Hugo Durro. A big win for Real Madrid with a score of 5-1 meant they secured full points again at the Santiago Bernabeu and at the same time continued to chase the 2 point gap from Girona.

Truthfully, I saw some superb saves from the young Ukrainian. He had a great game not just for the defense. He made some saves that the defenders couldn't have saved. What's up with Kepa? Injured or squad rotation?It's good he had a game of to prepare for the international duties.

It's good to see them both scoring and assisting themselves, good for the club Real Madrid and for the Brazil National Team.
They should do that consistently, at most Vinicius, even without Jude Bellingham they've always been a strong side.
Beautiful volley from Dani Carvajal, that goal was Astonishing!

Real Madrid interestingly, have convincingly won their last two games without Jude Bellingham who's has a minor injury but that doesn't mean that they'll be okay without the Englishman should they face stronger opponents. Rodrygo was undoubtedly the best player in that game against Valencia yesterday as he scored two goals in that game as well as providing two assists for Vinicius Jnr to score his two goals.
Girona who I thought would not be a strong contender for the Spanish La Liga title has significantly improved to be the most consistent club in the league this season and I think they're not giving up their league title ambition anytime soon

Real Madrid have been critically hits with injuries this season, I can't start mentioning their names because they're numerous, sometimes it's a miracle to see Los Blancos stand this tall without the presence of these important players. Carlo Ancelotti have been forced to proceed with his starting lineup without Jude Bellingham in his squad. The Englishman is injured but he's expected to return sooner than expected because it's a slight injury in his shoulder and there's whole lot of work he will do. Jude Bellingham is the current keyman in Real Madrid, he needs the club and the club needs him inreturn.

Therefore, it would be very strange if Madrid continued to state to the media that the January transfer season would not bring in any new players. Although it is clear that Bellingham absence in the main squad will gradually be felt, against clubs below him Madrid might still be able to overcome it and against Valencia, 5 goals were scored very easily, but what if the opponent was in the main squad. UCL after qualifying from the group? Like it or not, Madrid cannot avoid the demand to bring in new players, especially pure strikers. Rodrygo and Vinicius' role on the field is as ball suppliers, currently both of them are carrying out double duties.

Madrid must take Girona existence seriously and this season Michel club is not playing around. Their ambition began to show on the field playing with enthusiasm and finishing every match with extraordinary results. Creating unexpected opportunities, Rayo Vallecano, who was able to hold Madrid to a draw against Girona, couldn't do more. It was no longer luck for Girona but the game was very effective.

Barca is in a difficult period, and Xavi waits for Lewandowski to regain his form when hosting Alaves. The reason Barca has been having difficulty recently is due to Robert Lewandowski's poor performance. This shows that Barcelona needs to be more proactive at this time. In the match against Shakhtar, Lewandowski didn't even have a shot on target. Welcoming Alaves, I hope Barca shows its best football, as well as waiting for Lewandowski to score again. Xavi and his team must win 3 points to continue the La Liga championship race this season. If Lewandowski continues to decline, Barca should consider finding someone talented enough to replace him.

It might not be right to put the blame for this situation solely on Robert Lewandowski. The team in general is not playing well and in some parts of the game they are giving too many chances to the opponent. Xavi's plans sometimes don't translate on the pitch and that's why Barcelona seem to be playing badly.

I think Barcelona will beat Alaves at home, they can't afford to fall too far behind on points. They have 27 points and if they win this game they will reduce the points difference with Real Madrid to 2.

[ShowOff]

Even without Bellingham, Real Madrid managed to beat Valencia 5-1. The players wearing No. 7 and No. 11 for Madrid, Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo, were in top form, each scoring two goals against Valencia. When they play well, it's tough for the opponent, just like Valencia experienced. The result was really impressive, and it looks like the team was motivated enough! Now, let's see if Barca can grab an easy win.

Valencia is not a suitable opponent for Real Madrid because both have different squad depth and quality. Real Madrid is superior in everything especially since they are also playing the game at home, so I think it's natural that they are really motivated to win the game. Of course, they were without Bellingham in that match but their performance can be given a thumbs up.

I hope Barcelona can also win the match against Alaves soon. Barcelona is also playing at home and they have something to deserve to get them ahead of their opponents. Alaves doesn't have much chance of winning the match although I believe some teams with good defensive strength could trouble Barcelona. Xavi tried to rotate by playing Cancelo at left back instead of Balde, while Araujo was played at right back. I don't know for sure why Xavi did it, but I hope this can produce positive results and continue to stick closely with Real Madrid in 2nd place.

Barcelona will play at home today against Alaves and I think, only playing against Alaves should not be too dependent on Lewandowski. Unless, if the opponent Barcelona will face is a strong team and has good quality, then of course Barcelona expects a good performance from Lewandowski. But for today match only playing against Alaves, I think there is no good reason for Barcelona to fail to get a winning in this home match, because basically Alaves does not have above average quality. Therefore, I think if even though Lewandowski is still difficult to play well in this match but still, playing at home and only playing against Alaves of course Barcelona still has to succeed to get full points in this match.

Real Madrid without pity taught Valencia a lesson they would not forget in a haste, till their season ends, Real Madrid dominated all through the two halves of the game both in ball possession a d in goal attempts but they managed to get a goal before the end of the second half.

Real Madrid still stays two points behind girona on the league table which they really fighting to be at the top ,but I think it's still very much possible Real Madrid gets to the top of the league table before the league ends except they happens to drop in their form but I still doubt Girona will stay long at the top of the table it's only in a matter of time and they will soon be displaced by Real Madrid and most likely Barcelona when they eventually get better in their form because it looks like Barcelona is currently not in their best form any longer.

It is interesting that before the game with Real, Valencia conceded an adequate number of goals on average - exactly one, but received five from Real at once. But in my opinion, this was predictable since Real were additionally motivated after losing points in the previous round. Let's see what kind of performance Barcelona will show today - they have a convenient opponent, and they can improve their statistics. If I see another difficult victory for Barcelona, I will be surprised.

Real madrid is farr stronger than valencia. Barcelona was losing against real madrid and it makes everything clear valencia was nothing. Even without bellingham real madrid was able destroying valencia with huge scores.
Valencia was unable being equal with real madrid at this moment. The club keeps playing so badly and this is also helping real madrid so much. Ancellotti was also using the old line up. Brahim diaz is starting to perform even better along with carvajal.

The perfect result being acquired by real madrid at this moment. Real madrid is starting to bulld the confidence without bellingham again. The good result against valencia has proven it if real madrid was actually a worthy opponent.

If I see another difficult victory for Barcelona, I will be surprised.

However, when Bellingham is there, sometimes Real Madrid can't score many goals like this and I think the presence of Brahim Diaz who replaces Bellingham makes the game more flowing. Brahim Diaz did not contribute anything in this match, but with his courage, he often accelerated towards Valencia's defense, making his teammates like Vini and Rodrygo have space to score goals. On the other hand, Valencia's goalkeeper's mistakes cannot be forgiven because he repeatedly made blunders so that Valencia conceded more goals.

Playing at Camp Nou shouldn't be a problem for Barcelona but indeed if they achieve a difficult win it will surprise us all. Barcelona should have won from the start with a 2 goal difference in the first half but I don't think that will happen. Against a weak team like Alaves sometimes makes them careless and makes it difficult to score goals. But if the same result is repeated as against Granada and ends in a draw, it will be another setback that Barcelona wants.

Two matches with high goal productivity proved this and also silenced many critics.
However, whether Ancelotti can maintain the good performance of his front line until the end of this season, I really doubt it after seeing the quality of the team's front line.
However, what has happened should be appreciated and in order to make recruitments in the January transfer season, I think the team still needs to do something to further strengthen the front line.
Real Madrid really needs a striker who has quality.

Two of Madrid's youngsters, Vini and Rodrygo, have been playing very well in two matches, which is admirable. But I don't expect these two players to perform consistently well. They are still quite inexperienced. They also miss many easy opportunities. And thus it is impossible to maintain consistently good performance. Madrid management will certainly need to look for an experienced striker in the winter transfer window. Madrid management should try to add Mbappe to the squad. Then maybe the team can continue their dominance in the Champions League.

I think people have to realize that Real Madrid is just not Jude Billingham. Real Madrid is also just not someone else who performs exceptionally well for Real Madrid. Real Madrid is about the balance in the team and the strategy that they bring to the football field. Real Madrid is an exceptional team. And they have been performing like one.

But I still have to agree and say that Real Madrid really needs a striker. Because it doesn't matter how much we say that Real Madrid is a very balanced team, and even without the best player for them this season, they will perform. Well, Real Madrid is not going to do very well in the later stages of the competition. Especially in the Champions League.

Barcelona should have won from the start with a 2 goal difference in the first half but I don't think that will happen. Against a weak team like Alaves sometimes makes them careless and makes it difficult to score goals. But if the same result is repeated as against Granada and ends in a draw, it will be another setback that Barcelona wants.

I'm not sure why some of you haven't updated the information that this season Barcelona is not using Camp Nou as a stadium for its home games. Camp Nou is undergoing extensive renovations and Barcelona has been playing home games at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium.

Alaves cannot be completely considered a weak team because usually they can be strong against teams with superior winning probabilities. Alaves were able to hold Real Betis, Villareal and Celta Vigo to draws, while they also managed to win games against Valencia and Sevilla. Barcelona certainly has a big chance of winning at home in this match and I don't expect them to lose this important point following Real Madrid's win against Valencia yesterday.

[Sexylizzy2813]

Barcelona are having a good time this season with the good style of play but going against a weaker side today might be another 3pt to secure without any stress. The visitors have been struggling to get 2 straight win in this campaign, talking about Alaves, they have been extremely poor to me.
Barcelona knowing how to frustrate smaller team can make today's game more embarrassing to the visitors. I don't see any upset happening in this encounter and it would be Barcelona all the way with 2-3 goals in this game, and a win would still keep them 3rd before going for international break.

[SOKO-DEKE]

One of today's matches I will love to watch is the Sevilla match against Betis. I believe this match will be tough, and it will be hard to predict the outcome of the game before the game starts, despite the fact that Sevilla is not in good shape. It will never take it easy with Betis. With the current form of both teams, if we are to check it and do a comparison, Betis should be the favorite team to win the game, but when I checked their head-to-head of almost five seasons now, Sevilla is always a strong opponent to Betis. It is always hard for Betis to defeat Sevilla, even if Sevilla is not in good shape. Now that it is Sevilla's home game, it may be possible that Sevilla wins or draws the game.

I hope Barcelona can also win the match against Alaves soon. Barcelona is also playing at home and they have something to deserve to get them ahead of their opponents. Alaves doesn't have much chance of winning the match although I believe some teams with good defensive strength could trouble Barcelona. Xavi tried to rotate by playing Cancelo at left back instead of Balde, while Araujo was played at right back. I don't know for sure why Xavi did it, but I hope this can produce positive results and continue to stick closely with Real Madrid in 2nd place.

Alaves might not put Barcelona through that much hardship, in my opinion. Since the game is being played at home, I believe Barcelona should be able to win easily. I also think that, although it has happened in the past, it is rare for a weak team to defeat Barcelona, particularly in the LA Liga. I therefore believe that Barcelona will win this match by any means possible.

Alaves team is relatively weak for Barcelona. Alaves have won only 3 matches this season and are currently 12th in the points table. A fairly weak competitor. But the problem is that Barcelona have a past record of losing against weaker teams. Barcelona have a record of dropping points even against the last team in the points table. So don't expect Barcelona to win easily against Alaves. Barcelona lost last match against Shaktar in Champions League match.

Alaves player Samu Omorodion scored in the first minute of the match. Barcelona players were not ready to concede the goal so quickly. Alaves now lead 1-0 in the match. And I think the team will play completely defensive now.

[jeha2015]

Even without Bellingham, Real Madrid managed to beat Valencia 5-1. The players wearing No. 7 and No. 11 for Madrid, Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo, were in top form, each scoring two goals against Valencia. When they play well, it's tough for the opponent, just like Valencia experienced. The result was really impressive, and it looks like the team was motivated enough! Now, let's see if Barca can grab an easy win.

This big win also proved it to all fans because many doubted that Real Madrid would win if there was no JUde. Even now, without Jude, Real Madrid can win big, and in this match, Vini is finally seen playing again without doing much dribbling, he has returned to Vini who is looking for a goal like the champion he won last time. It was great to see Vini score some great goals from outside the box, his evolution has been spectacular and he is still improving a lot.

In this match, Vini and Rodrygo were great for me, Carvajal, Lunin, Kroos and Valverde also really stood out in this match. If Real Madrid players come back on fire like this they will win the Laliga title this season. Currently Barca is trailing 0-1 from Alaves, a goal scored by Omorodion in the 1st minute. This will be an interesting match to watch, will Barca be able to make a comeback?

[Jody.Drummer]

Saua was surprised by Alaves' quick goal in the ongoing match. Barcelona were caught off guard in the first minute allowing Alaves to steal a quick goal. In the 15th minute, Barcelona responded with full control of the game, Alaves who took the lead now defended and tried to maintain their lead.
With so much time remaining, there is still a good chance Barcelona can equalize and turn the game around. Especially with the amount of possession they had, they could have pulled a goal back before the end of the first half.
