La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[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.

Barcelona is playing at home, they should be able to get out of this pressure.
Being left behind by 1 goal in the opening minutes of the match could be a disaster for Barcelona because after that goal it was clear that at this time Alaves was more likely to play defensively and only rely on counter attacks, Barcelona seemed to have difficulty penetrating the Alaves defense, I don't know for sure whether Barcelona's front line was playing. bad or Alaves' very strong defense line.
What is certain is that I really hope Barcelona can turn things around because I am betting on Barcelona winning this match..

I think that after being left behind by many points in La Liga, Barcelona is determined to catch up so they have more motivation for them to win the match so I decided to bet on Barcelona winning.
Hopefully I won't be disappointed at the end of the match.

Congratulations, you were spared the disappointment after Barcelona were able to turn around the score and win the game. Robert Lewandowski was the hero for Barcelona's win with 2 goals in the second half. They really had problems in the first half, and fortunately in the second half they were able to take advantage of the gap they got so they could turn things around.
This result allows them to keep a tight grip on Real Madrid and Girona who are in first and second place.
Ah yes, it is interesting to look at Girona, so far only Real Madrid can beat them.

Atletico Madrid suffered their second defeat of the season against Las Palmas last Friday and will need to bounce back against an arguably weakened Villarreal in their 23/24 La Liga campaign.Currently they are fourth in the points table. Villarreal are unbeaten in four away matches, but lost 3-2 at home to Atletico Bilbao. Pacheco's Gerard Moreno, Jeremy Pino, Juan Faith and Alfonso Pedraza are out with injuries and field a worryingly thin squad for this tough match. Atletico are especially good in attack. In the last appearance they draw 2-2. Can easily crush Villarreal for the three points and will probably do so this evening. Atletico Madrid could win 3-1.

So far this season, the truth is that Atletico also has very good results in home matches, because of the five home matches Atletico has won all of them so far this seasons . But yes, although Villarreal does not seem to be in a good trend at this moment but in fact, at least Villarreal is also not as bad as imagined for the results of away matches so far this season. With such a record, although Atletico is predicted to win in this home match, but it still seems not easy for Atletico because Villarreal is also not easy to beat. Because in fact also, Villarreal has the ability to hold Atletico at home at least based on head to head record too. But yes, there is no harm if we bet on Atletico to win, but it is likely that this match will also have goals that are likely to be more than two and that will be interesting to watch.

At the moment, Valencia is not a good enough team. But Real Madrid's 5-goal victory is incredible. Beyond that they performed without Bellingham. They changed their habits by using a 4-4-2 formation. They played Kros and Camavinga in central midfield. It was effective and they managed to control the match. Even this proves Kroos is still not finished, he performed very well. The problem of attackers, Madrid against Valencia also did not happen much. Even Vicius and Rodrygo who were installed as attackers were able to perform well and scored 2 goals each. Bellingham and Guller are not on the list, it seems Anceloti wants them to be 100% healed and ready to play.

Valencia is not very strong for Real Madrid, so I think Real Madrid's victory yesterday was not too surprising. Real Madrid can overcome Valencia without their best attacking midfielder, but that is not a problem because the average performance of their players is very good.

Vinicius and Rodrygo each scored 2 goals, but Dani Carvajal was the man who got the party started. Meanwhile Barcelona also managed to secure 3 points at home today against Alaves, but it was not an easy match for Barcelona. The best thing about Barcelona's win today was that Lewandowski started to find his form again by scoring 2 goals.

Barcelona was lucky to win the match because if not they would only win 1 point at home. Barcelona was ultimately able to maintain its points gap with Real Madrid and the top of the standings with a difference of 2 and 4 points, so it was no different from last week.

Lewandowski should be better after scoring two goals in this match. He suffered a dip in form after returning from injury, but he is not giving up and this is a warning that other teams who face him need to consider. I'm happy that Real Madrid are still 2 points ahead of Barcelona after their 5-1 win over Valencia, so I hope it's safe until the next game on November 27th. There is something unique about the top scorer standings, apart from Bellingham, there are 8 different players who have scored 7 goals to occupy second place after Bellingham with 10 goals.

Yeah, and I have to admit that as a Barcelona supporter. if not awarded a penalty shot in the 78th minute, I think the final result would potentially be 1-1. Luckily, Toress was fouled and Lewa as the kicker successfully put his team ahead and won the match. But naturally, Barcelona experienced quite a problem in this match. Basically, Alaves plays with a defensive pattern. they used a 5-4-1 formation, which meant that Barcelona had to fight to break down the opposing team's defense.
We can refer to the match statistics, Barcelona controlled the game with 72% ball possession. too busy attacking, giving Alaves an opening to counterattack and even endangering Barcelona's goal. Moreover, they took the lead quickly in the 1st minute. It was recorded that the Alaves squad carried out 4 quick counterattacks, but the 3 shots they fired failed.

As you said at the beginning, Barcelona was lucky in this match because they were awarded a penalty. however, the effort is not free because they make efforts to create opportunities. Apart from that, Xavi also tried using other systems. It seems that Xavi is starting to get serious about increasing the strength of his team even though he has not been able to perfect it. but at least, their pattern was very clear. Now, only 2 points adrift of Real Madrid. With so many matches remaining, Barca has the potential to be able to compete closely with the teams above them. especially if De Jong and the other players recover completely. it is not impossible, they are able to overtake the team that is above them.

The last match in La Liga today will be between Atletico Madrid and Villarreal. Atletico Madrid suffered a surprise defeat against Las Palmas last week. Before that game they had a 6-game winning streak. This season they are behind Real Madrid and Barcelona in the league, but in the Champions League they are undefeated in Group E. They have a good combination with Yannick Carrasco, Antoine Griezmann and Alvaro Morata. I like the play of Atletico Madrid this season. On the other hand, Villarreal are far from their glory days this season. They have only 3 wins in 12 games this season. I see Atletico Madrid as the favorites to win this match.

I hate to say people are wrong but you should go check properly how poorly Barcelona have been playing for the past three games.
Real Sociedad they shouldn't have won, the champions league fixture against Shakhtar Donetsk and now at home once again to Alaves. They've failed to score goals, create chances and also defend very well.
Right now they're losing the game to Alaves, what are the hope's of them equalizing with Robert Lewandoski drop in form. Since the game against Real Madrid they haven't done excellently well.

What's wrong in saying people are wrong?

You're right when you said Barcelona are doing poorly but it doesn't mean they don't get the job done, fine they lost the game in the champions league which was disappointing to the fans and I feel the manager has already gotten what he wants. I know Barcelona won't come back from the international break and still be in this confused form, that's off and on.
Today's game was suppose to be a game they are suppose to use to make up for their loss with so many goals but they got only two goals, at some point it was like they were going to play out a draw.
Lewandoski hasn't been in his best of form and I feel age is also getting on him, with the fact that he just got back from injury, I feel he needs time to get back on track. So you won't expect such a player to start hitting the ground running, he did well by getting the goals in that encounter and I feel he'd be in better shape when they get back from the break.

Barcelona trailed in the first half after conceding a goal in the first minute. Barcelona's defenders were not at all prepared to concede a goal so quickly. And after scoring the first goal, Alaves players started to play defensively. They might have wanted to win the match 1-0 or draw 1-1. But in the second half, the Barcelona team got back on track with the help of Lewandowski. Barcelona equalized with Lewandowski's goal just 8 minutes into the second half. And in the 78th minute, Lewandowski scored another goal from the penalty spot to give Barcelona the lead. Barcelona had chances to improve their gameplay in the first half. But Barcelona's players prioritized ball possession. And in the second half they changed their match strategy. The match is likely to end 2-1. Barcelona team is going to get 3 points from this match.

It felt good to see them Barcelona winning the match against Alaves with that they're not so far from those leading the table ( Girona and real Madrid )
They're not consistent and it has lead to talks of Xavi Hernandez being sacked but Barcelona management has given him full assurance be won't be sacked.

I'm excited for Robert Lewandoski even if I failed to see the game. He has been criticized by fans for dropping form and failing to score. Glad he could register his name today to help his side win. I'll do well to see highlights of the game if they really deserved the penalty.

The last match in La Liga today will be between Atletico Madrid and Villarreal. Atletico Madrid suffered a surprise defeat against Las Palmas last week. Before that game they had a 6-game winning streak. This season they are behind Real Madrid and Barcelona in the league, but in the Champions League they are undefeated in Group E. They have a good combination with Yannick Carrasco, Antoine Griezmann and Alvaro Morata. I like the play of Atletico Madrid this season. On the other hand, Villarreal are far from their glory days this season. They have only 3 wins in 12 games this season. I see Atletico Madrid as the favorites to win this match.

The previous defeat against a weak team like Las Palmas was beyond predictions and Atletico certainly does not want to suffer the same result against Villarreal soon. Diego Simione, who is Atletico's tactician, seems to want to continue the existing winning trend and they must immediately move on from the bad results they have had and indeed in the Champions League they are still unbeaten and are at the top of Group F.

I see more of a duet between Griezzman and Morata who will stand out again in this match and indeed the two of them have often been the deciding players in Atletico's victory so far. Villarreal is still far from expectations and after changing coaches some time ago it still hasn't made Villarreal improve and currently they are at the bottom of the standings and have a long way to go to get back to the top 10 in the standings.

[Slow death]

This season the league is very interesting, because normally the teams at the top of the table are Barcelona and Real Madrid. but this season I'm seeing something very funny, I'm even joking with myself about how long Girona will be able to stay at the top and it's funny that they are gradually distancing themselves from Real Madrid and Barcelona, before it was a difference of 1 point, now the difference it rose to 2 points, then we will have a scenario in which the difference in points is already more than 3 or 5 points if they continue to win and real madrid and barcelona have a defeat. now talking about real madrid, they beat valencia in a game in which they scored 5 goals

It was something incredible, after they scored 3 goals in the game against Braga in the European Champions League, today they scored a lot of goals again, perhaps it was the start of a very strong attack since the goals were scored by the attackers. while in the case of barcelona they are still not good in attack, they are not managing to score many goals, they won but they won't convince me, they were losing but then managed to reverse the deficit. Barcelona has often started the game losing. this season they are bad in defense

First of all, every team have its own ups and downs, in some matches maybe month or even bad seasons. Last season Barcelona was the one to take LaLiga trophy and this season also they took the first place for some time. So, for me it’s just a period where this team isn’t doing well.
Xavi now has some work to do and changes to make things better and bring back the team to the winning track. Barcelona has many good players and young talented ones that can create the upcoming change, why not giving the team so time to see what they will do. I believe that real fans are understanding well the situation and also happy to win in today’s match with the comeback in second half. We also saw that Xavi let many players that didn’t play in first half and didn’t change them, and they are the ones who brought the comeback which means it’s only a matter of belief and time to see Barcelona great again.

Really happy to see them bounce back from a 0:1 defeat at the beginning of the match to eventually winning 2:1 in the final score that's very good for a team that has been with out them key man Robert Lewandoski for some couple of games but glad he's back in the team and he gave a superb performance and helped the team in scoring the equalizing goal and also provided the winning goal so happy for him.

I think the Barcelona coach Xavi needs more them as he's still working on the team so I think they should let him do his job instead of pushing for his sacj because the team dropped some point in the league. I watched the game and from my observations Barcelona played more better and deserves the win they got today.

I was really glad when Barcelona did a come back by the second half of the game, they were loosing in the first half and it got me troubled because I know Barcelona is in a much better form when compared to alaves so it got me wondering if Barcelona will be in a struggle.

But by the second half there was much more better performance that what they did in the first half of the game. Obviously Barcelona needs some more help with their attack as it is gradually growing weak especially in the absence of lewandoski, they really struggle to win matches, I'm hoping regardless of their financial constraints, they will be able to get a good replacement by January transfer window in the absence of lewandoski

Monero broke the deadlock forst for Villareal with a rebound shot from outside the box to pit the game in davor of Villareal. This is the 7th goal that Monero has scored this season. It was on the extra time of the first half that Athletico Madrid was able to eqaulize the goal.

Greizeman was the man that made a cross to Wistel who was on the other side of the post and he happoly finished the ball into the back of the net to balance the score. Athletico should be able to win this game because they are on the fourth position while Villareal is on 13th postion. I want to see how the game will end in the second half but after the equalizer, Athletico Madrid has another opportunity to score but they missed it. it is still 1-1

Barcelona was lucky to win the match because if not they would only win 1 point at home. Barcelona was ultimately able to maintain its points gap with Real Madrid and the top of the standings with a difference of 2 and 4 points, so it was no different from last week.

Barcelona did not win the match by luck but played the second half dominantly and grabbed 3 points. It is true that in the first half, Barcelona was a little weak from the attacking point of view, but in the second half, Xavi changed the tactic and strengthened the team again, due to which the team performed well and even Lewandowski recovered his lack of performance. Broke through and made a pouch in Alaves' net with a stunner, which levelled the game and won the match for the team by scoring the second penalty goal. Moreover, now Barcelona will have to try to chase Real Madrid, and then Barcelona will be able to hold the second position. And after that, he will push himself to the top and even hold on to the top if he makes a gap of 2 points with Real Madrid and 4 points with Girona. But Lawandiski did a great job of winning the match. A true striker does the same when it is needed and lets him perform.

[lalabotax]

Lewandoski hasn't been in his best of form and I feel age is also getting on him, with the fact that he just got back from injury, I feel he needs time to get back on track.

Indeed, we need to admit that Lewandowski's performance was not as good as before during his first season at Barcelona. At first he really had high motivation and always gave his best performance. He was one of Barcelona's best purchases last season who was able to bring Barcelona up from its downturn. However, this season, the conditions are a little different. Moreover, after he was injured, he may not be able to play optimally in order to maintain his condition after the injury. But usually when a player returns from injury, they usually won't be as good as they were before the injury. And maybe because of other factors such as the age you mentioned earlier. Luckily, Barcelona currently has a pretty solid squad. So at least Xavi can still rely on and optimize his players well in various conditions.

Barcelona was lucky to win the match because if not they would only win 1 point at home. Barcelona was ultimately able to maintain its points gap with Real Madrid and the top of the standings with a difference of 2 and 4 points, so it was no different from last week.

Barcelona played well, they very dominated the match against Alaves. They won the ball possessions about 72%, and they made 11 shots. I think they should make more shots with 72% of the ball possessions. But Alaves played very defensive, it becomes the obstacle for Barcelona to create many opportunities in attacking. However, it is okay as long as they could secure 3 points.

Lewandowski should be better after scoring two goals in this match. He suffered a dip in form after returning from injury, but he is not giving up and this is a warning that other teams who face him need to consider.

Lewandowski gradually can return to his best form. It is normal if he can't immediately to perform well after he recovered from the long injury. But today he contributed with 2 goals, it showed to people that he is ready to play in his best level again. This is a good sign for Barcelona that very depends on him in scoring goals.

[ajanwalker]

Barcelona finished the first half trailing 0-1, 53rd. He scored two goals from Lewandowsky in the and 78th minutes and completed the week without losing any points. Barcelona had a difficult time against its opponent.
Girona team in La Liga attracts my attention. At the beginning of the season, they drew 1-1 with Real Sociedad and lost 0-3 to Real Madrid at home. Apart from these two matches, he did not lose any points. It is very difficult for them to become champions, but they have done a very good job so far.

Girona continues undefeated in a very interesting way, I think this will change every week, but for some reason they never lose and they definitely play very well. Barcelona's savior Lewandowski was at work again today and became the player who scored two goals and brought the three points.

I don't know what would happen to Barcelona when I think that this guy was injured for a longer time. Good thing he was able to come back without being away from the field for too long. If Deportivo Alaves had been a more experienced team, I think they could have defeated Barcelona today, they had a very early goal opportunity.

Barcelona got a difficult time facing Alaves after receiving an early goal from them. It took them long time to score and get the draw. Lewandowski saved them today. I see the defence line is weaker right now comparing to the previous season.
Atletico Madrid kept winning and getting closer from them, they lack one more game by the way. Girona will face next Athletic club and they have a game against Barcelona next month. I think they will lose points in one of these two games at least.
