La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[ShowOff]

A predictable victory for Real Madrid against Granada, although they were only able to score one goal, it didn't really matter, because one goal allowed them to get three points from this match.
However, with a very significant control of the match, Real Madrid should be able to create more than 2 goals. In this match Granada barely attacked and I think it was a very long match for Granada, because for almost 90 minutes they could only defend. They couldn't create chances, they couldn't even counteratack.

I saw yesterday match and felt sorry for Granada without being able to do anything and only being able to defend even though they tried to attack but were attacked again by Real Madrid players and I also initially thought that Madrid could at least score 3 scores but in fact Madrid was only able to score 2 scores because of the players Granada almost entirely focused on behind the defense so Bellingham and Rodrygo had little difficulty scoring.

and Girona match against Vanlencia made me a little surprised because in first half until middle second half I could not score and surprisingly in 80th minute I was able to score 2 scores and managed to steal 3 points.
with yesterday match it was very clear that Girona still wanted to survive chase Real Madrid points.

Granada was not a match for Real Madrid, so I was never surprised about Real Madrid winning. After all, Real Madrid is playing in front of its fans at home and they should have good form to win the match. Of course, Granada was really unable to prevent conceding, they couldn't even build an attack that could endanger Real Madrid's defense. Throughout the match I just watched Real Madrid play without any clear attempts from Granada to score.

About Girona, they are one of the best teams in La Liga this season. Their performance was very impressive and I think we should acknowledge it without exception. Girona have made 13 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in 15 matches, that is a great statistic about a team that is completely overlooked in the title race this season.

Real Madrid played very well, even though they have a very young team, they allow us to watch good football. Frankly, I thought we would see more goals, there were many quality goal attempts, but they had some trouble achieving the result.
Seeing that Granada couldn't do anything on the field, it was a miracle for them that they only conceded 2 goals. There could have been many more goals, but Real Madrid players shoot poorly

Yes indeed, Real Madrid should be able to win with a big score like for example 3-0 or 4-0 because yes, Real Madrid really locked Granada in this match because Granada only focused on defending . But yes, because Real Madrid doesn't give Granada the opportunity to attack, then of course it will also be more difficult for Real Madrid to score many goals, because Granada plays completely defensively. Even though Granada is in the relegation zone, but it is quite impressive because Granada still has a good effort not to lose by a big score.

I felt bad for them because they were not upto standard to stand Real Madrid but who cares? They signed up for the task and they have to dance to the tune of the music but unfortunately, they are relegated team that is struggling and trying to leave the relegation than care about the top 4 or 7. It was so bad that they didn't have a single short on target which means that they couldn't make any attempts to even score goals with 30% ball possession is not worth it.

Some teams actually do surprised us with matches against big teams but this time, it's just like we are having under 17 playing against full squad of a club but I will like to give them bite of confidence in defending there home greatly because despite not been able to score, they did defend greatly because they didn't allowed Real Madrid to have much goals because they really did well in that aspect but center forward didn't deliver their part.

Real Madrid won 2 nil at Santiago Bernabéu stadium and they're currently ranked #1 on the table. This is the motivation Carlo Ancelotti and his men needs at the present moment, they won't relent any longer, rather they will keep pushing for good scores and winning mentality have been key into the minds of the players and the supporters. In the first place, Granada is definitely not the team that would be compared to Real Madrid as threat because I've seen absolutely nothing concerning the Granada this season, they're in the relegation zone and fighting to escape.

[ShowOff]

The Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid match will be the best match this week, of course I have been waiting for it for a long time. Barcelona must be able to win the match without reason because with that Barcelona can catch up on the points gap with Girona and Real Madrid. Barcelona must keep their distance from the top of the standings if they don't want to fall too far behind, but I believe Atletico Madrid is a difficult opponent.

So far Barcelona has won 3 of their last 6 matches against Atletico Madrid in La Liga in the last 3 seasons. Atletico Madrid won 2 of 6 matches and 1 of them ended in a draw. Barcelona has a good record in its last 3 matches against Atletico Madrid in La Liga and this is good capital to hope to maintain. After all, Barcelona is playing at home and I think the probability is pretty good to win.

Sevilla performed slightly better in home matches compared to away matches. They managed to get 9 points in 7 home matches. 2 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses. Although opponents Villarreal's performance has been poor this season, this team is experienced enough. Sevilla will not want to drop points against it. Sevilla, on the other hand, are also looking to stay away from the relegation zone. The team is 15th in the points table. The match is equally important for both the teams. So it is very difficult to select the favorite team in this match.

But that is what seems to be the result for Sevilla, dropping points again if they can't score a late goal and I doubt they will. Their home game performance is that of a team that gets relegated by the end of the season given that they are even worse when they play away from home. Now they are going to have 10 points in 8 home matches, which is 1.25 points at home per game and in 19 games they could get less than 24 points. This season will be a catastrophe for them if they can't finally get some of their potential set free and improve their play.

Real Madrid win by two goals and not one, but like you rightly said, they were able to get three points and that what matters the most for them, especially with the fact that it got them to the top of the standings on the table as against their position before the match.

Granada knew they were already at disadvantage playing from away against Los Blanco's, they were more defensive than attacking because they needed to protect theirselves from conceding so much goals because they know if Los Blanco's is given the chance, they will definitely rain goals moreover they were playing with their complete squad, I just hope Madrid will be able to maintain their position at the top of the league table long enough to win the title by the end of the season because they still have the UCL to play aswell.

Very boring performance from Villarreal and Sevilla. The game came alive when Sevilla opened the score sheet, only to trigger a response from Villarreal less than 3 minutes and the game returned to being boring. Anyone noticed that Villarreal was robbed of their second goal by the referee?. The  player  kicked  himself before going down. The decision of the referee is final though, I honestly think Villarreal deserved that win. Checking the replay couldn't help the referee take a good decision.  I know nobody is above mistakes, but Its such a disappointment making such poor, costly mistakes in a match  like that.

Sevilla is still too disappointing, I mean they are still very difficult to improve their form. This season Sevilla have only been able to win 2 of 14 matches, but they have managed to draw 7 and lose 5 of them. Of course, this is not a pleasant result for them, but poor finishing is always a problem besides their weak defense.

I think Sevilla needs and must bring in several quality players in the next transfer market to boost the team's performance. They are too good to be relegated like this, so they should be able to get up and fight to get back to their good form. Lucas Ocampos has not been in his best form in the last 3 seasons, in fact he has been just as bad this season especially in 13 appearances. Lucas Ocampos has only scored 1 goal and 1 assist in 13 appearances, so I think he should get competition by bringing in other players. Youssef En-Nesyri isn't very good either, but he has scored 5 goals in 13 appearances this season.

More quality players is definitely an issue that they need to solve urgently and they almost were beaten in the game against Villareal because a last minute goal was given and then revoked some moments later. They did at least get that one point, but this can't be satisfactory for them at all. Sevilla used to be a club that was always respected within La Liga because they were able to beat every team although their best times in La Liga are quite a while ago. But now everything is pointing towards Segunda division if it goes on like this.

The game is over and Sevilla couldn't get a good result in this match. In fact, they were not in good form in the last days we saw from this team and Sevilla has lost many points so far, they had a bad performance in La Liga even in the last season, also changing the coach didn't help the team at all.  They couldn't beat a team like Villarreal while Sevilla had more chances in this match.

Since Diego Simeone become Atletico's coach, it's never an easy to predict which team will win. Atletico Madrid is in a very good shape, they score many goals and have a good result in recent matches while we can't say the same about FC Barcelona. To be honest, Barcelona, like PSG is a strange team. There were years when they had top players but weren't capable to win Champions League or La League while Real Madrid always wins the trophies without bunch of superstars but to be frank, they have always had the best goalkeepers.
I think this match of FC Barcelona VS Atletico Madrid will be either draw or Atletico Madrid will win. I also think that it will be a nice bet to bet on under 3 goals.

I have no reason to discredit Barcelona. They are the better team in the two decade in La Liga, that can be seen from their title win. I will not compare the achievements of Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Champions League because you probably know that Real Madrid is the best team, but in La Liga Barcelona is the team that has dominated the title in the two decade.

I can't hide the fact that Barcelona has won 11 titles in the last 20 seasons, while Real Madrid has only won 6 titles. Atletico Madrid won 2 titles and one of them was won by Valencia in the 2003-2004 season. Barcelona has great potential to win against Atletico Madrid and Joao Felix has just celebrated a goal for the team that loaned him to Barcelona. He seems to know that Diego Simeone no longer wants him, so this is revenge he has in mind.

[Velvet78]

Barcelona got ahead by 1-0 against Atletico Madrid a couple of minutes ago. Joao Felix scored the goal and it is good for him. Because there has been a really long time since he scored a goal in the La Liga.  

But he is still performing decently in general. He has adapted to left wing really quickly. Playing for his dream team must have made things easier for him at the same time. It is still early to say that Barcelona would win this game though. Because Atletico Madrid are also a really solid team this season. Barcelona had better do their best to make it 2-0 otherwise the equalizer might not be too far.

Sevilla in their last 5 matches have not won at all, their ranking is still at 15th, and Sevilla will probably not go to the Segunda division, they still have hopes of being in the top 15 until the end of the season.  

The Barcelona vs Atletico match was going very excitingly, i'm currently watching it, Felix successfully scored 1 goal to give Barcelona a temporary lead, so far Barcelona's ball possession has reached 66% while Atletico's has only reached 34%.

Scoring against Atletico Madrid? Wow! I hope he didn't celebrate that otherwise he'll be booed by them fans of Atletico Madrid.
How well can they ( Barcelona ) hold down the goal scored? He scored during the Champions League game against Porto, Yes? Then, it's back to back goals for the lad.

Even for Chelsea he did well. He's going to stay longer since the talented Fati won't be coming back anytime soon. I'm having the feeling of Atletico Madrid coming back into the game. They haven't really gone so far in the game.

[Ryu_Ar1]

According to current news reports, Jude has an ankle problem and may need to rest first.
It's unfortunate that he's just recovered from a shoulder injury but I don't think it's too much of a problem because looking at the current situation Madrid can still play well especially when their opponent is Granada so with the current squad I think they are able to finish this match well.
It's just that in this case anticipation must be there, especially with the start of Jude who experienced this problem could have an impact in the future.

Yep, even though for now it doesnt have a big impact, it's just that with the situation that happened, especially with several players who are still under treatment, things like this can certainly be disturbing for Madrid. We know in the last few seasons Madrid's problem has been injuries and not just today but also Benzema when he was at Madrid the problem was a recurring injury that always came so there needs to be special treatment now for Jude so that he is not too easy to get injured especially now that he is one of the key players from Madrid which could be if this is not anticipated from the start it will be problematic for the future of Madrid.
But facing Granada at the Bernabeu will not be too difficult for Madrid and sure Madrid can definitely with 3 points.

In this match Jude was able to play, meaning that even though he had a slight problem with his foot before, he was still able to play and that was actually very good but in this match where Madrid's midfielders were very good I realized one thing for sure because looking at Ancelotti's formation he can now use a formation with one second striker or four midfielders that makes him very free.
Jude played very tactically, he can be deployed anywhere and I was pleased with the performance of Brahim Diaz when he was given the opportunity because he always plays very well.
Also, Toni Kroos is the king of passing. Despite his age he can really organize the midfield well with his measured passing and the assist for Diaz in the first half I really like it .

Barcelona has a good record in its last 3 matches against Atletico Madrid in La Liga and this is good capital to hope to maintain. After all, Barcelona is playing at home and I think the probability is pretty good to win.

   

First of all, Barcelona are in a good form at the moment despite injury worries and have managed to win two games since the resumption of the laliga and the champions league beating FC Porto 2-1 at the camp Nou, this will go a long way to boost their morale and also set a good precedent for them as they play against arch rivals Athletico Madrid, and playing at home is an added advantage to FC Barcelona, so I think it's gonna be a win for them though I don't expect it to be an easy game for Barca because Athletico Madrid are also in a great form at the moment both in the champions league and in the laliga, so I think it's gonna be another classsico.

[BIT-BENDER]

First half and Barcelona is dominating the game. This is a better performance from Xavi Hernandez men although a poor one for Robert Lewandowski as he got feed several times from cancelo and kounde but he did not make anything out of it.
The special duo of Morata and Greizman has not really clicked today and side a little scare Barcelona defence hasn't been really test today by Atletico Madrid.
Although Atletico Madrid has a better bench than Barcelona and this may turn out to be a problem for Xavi Hernandez, it's best the finish the game off as early as possible before they get some tired legs out there.

[Lida93]

It is Joa' felix intervention that made the difference in the first 45 minutes at the camp Nou tonight. It has been a fierce battle tonight as Barcelona took the lead in the 28 minute after a lovely pass from Raphinha to jao felix to put Barcelona ahead in the game though Barcelona have lost a couple of good chances tonight

 but I think they are looking great tonight as they keep creating more chances in front of the athletico Madrid goal.Athletico Madrid have also done well tonight by not allowing Barcelona increase the deficit tonight because that would have been a disaster for them and would thrown them in chaos, as it is right now they still have a chance of coming back into this game and that's what's gonna make the second half more interesting.
