La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[hahay]

If Girona manages to beat Barcelona, of course it will stop Barcelona from winning the title this season and at least keep the points distance by quite a large margin, that's why Girona wants this win so they can focus more on competing with Madrid to win the title this season, but if If Girona fails, it will be difficult for them to win the title this season because Barcelona will be a threat to their position too.

Perhaps even if Barcelona manages to win Girona they will still be were they are that's the third position because Girona points is far higher than Barcelona points because Girona currently has 38 points while Barcelona has 34 points so however the difference is still much so before Barcelona can bring Girona down is only if they win there two straight matches while Girona lose two of there matches that's the only way they can beat Girona on the table and perhaps is not even position for Girona to lose two straight matches.

So for now the chances of Barcelona entering the second position on the table is very low because there is no way Girona will allow them to win, instead they will draw the match.

Even if for example Girona managed to beat Barcelona, there I sure that is no guarantee to Girona will find it easier to compete with Real Madrid for the title this season. Also, there is no guarantee that Girona will continue to win throughout the season so yes, even though they have a wide points gap at the moment. But still, there is still plenty of opportunity for Barcelona to get back into the La Liga title race this season . So yes, whatever the result whether losing or winning for Girona in this match but ya I sure, Girona position is still not entirely safe, because of course it is difficult to maintain consistency until the end of the season.

[Weawant]

But they (Girona) can take advantage of the not-so-good situation that Barcelona is currently facing. Barcelona have problems at several points, and if Girona can analyze them well then they will be able to find their weak points and exploit them in this match.
Girona must anticipate Barcelona's attacking moves well, so far their midfield has been working well. And when their midfield is suppressed, Barcelona will find it difficult to develop their game. I think that will be something that will affect the outcome of the match.

This has been my taughts aswell as it regards the match between Girona mad Barcelona buy Girona have a slight disadvantage which has to be with the fact that they will be hosted by Barcelona. Capitalizing on Barcelona's weakness is the greatest advantage Girona can het buy before then, they will have to identify the weakness to be able to use it.

Girona will really have it difficult getting pass Barcelona midfield, that seem like their stronghold and they have got some good attacking moves especially if they have jao Felix and lweandoski at the attacking line then hironas defense theo strong, may be in trouble, they will have to further tighten their defense as these players are creative enough to penetrate and get pass the defense line . I expect a rough game for girona buy have no person in particular as favourite.

[Jegileman]

Barcelona also doesn't want to experience defeat and lose points, of course they will play their best to face Girona and even so, Barcelona is still the favorite when facing Girona considering Barcelona's strength is above Girona, so I think this match will be interesting in the next few days, especially since both clubs have similar strengths. quite well, the prediction is that Barcelona will win narrowly over Girona

The predictions are extremely close, and we can't say with certainty that this is how the match will end. Barcelona is considered the favoured in this match due to their previous meetings and encounters with this team, which have usually favoured them. Today, Girona is ahead of Barcelona in the standings, and we can't ignore it and place all of the trust in Barcelona to comfortably defeat them. This team will want to keep their place and retain a good lead over Barcelona; I believe they will play better in order to have a decent chance of beating Barcelona when they meet in a few days.

[KTChampions]

Considering that, from the bookmakers' point of view, Barcelona has approximately a 30% chance of losing points, based on your assessment, you can safely bet on Barcelona. But I think it's too risky. Even though Barcelona wins tough games (eg against Atlético Madrid) they have too many tough games - even against outsiders. Girona looks like a more “vigorous” team and Girona’s goal difference is at least a little better than Barcelona’s. I see no reason why Girona cannot put up a serious fight in this game or even win it.

I think this betting is very difficult, because according to predictions the chance of winning could potentially be achieved by Barcelona but for some reason right now I prefer to bet on Girona winning because in essence I see Girona's performance is very good, and according to the standings alone because Girona is in the standings 2nd place he has 38 points but in the match when Girona faced Bilbao I saw that Girona's performance was slightly reduced because the result was a 1-1 draw but indeed Barcelona is a strong team and the proof is that when they faced Bilbao Barcelona won the match with a score of 1-0 so indeed Barcelona too has privileges that Girona doesn't have, but when facing Rayo Barcelona drew with a score of 1-1 but when Girona faced Rayo Girona won the match with a score of 1-2 yes this is a difficult situation to predict who will win later, it looks like we have to see Girona's performance tomorrow in the match against Orihuela in the Copa Del Rey league so that we can learn more and measure the extent of Girona's strength.

Personally, I decided to skip this game completely. Neither BTTS nor Total attracts me. I really have no idea how this game will go. And it’s not about Girona, if there was a game between Girona and the same team as Girona, then I would be sure that the total would be more than 2.5 and BTTS, even with odds of 1.5, would be profitable. The problem is in Barcelona. Maybe they will play the bus, maybe they will have problems converting chances. The score can be either 1-0, 0-0, 0-1, or 3-2. I won't risk it here.

That aside, why is no one talking about the spanish copa de rey cup round 2 thats ongoing ? Celta vigo, Girona amongst others are playing tonight. Whats your predicition?

Yes, I didn't see that discussion Copa del Rey either, even though it might be interesting. But maybe not, because Girona opponent is Orihuela (unpopular team) so the possibility for Girona to winning tonight are quite high. The odds for Girona @1.27, Girona seemed to be the favorite team.
Also, Celta opponent is Sestao. TBH I don't know, about the strength of that team but the possibility for Celta to winning is also opened, because the odds for Celta currently @1.35 and become the favorite team in that match. Apart from Girona and Celta matches, we also have Cadiz vs Arandina and Bilbao vs Cayon scheduled in Copa del Rey.

[TopT3ns]

Real Madrid have proven to be one of the best teams in Lalliga so far,they have been outstanding since the start of this season,and only Girona and Barca are the teams who we could say are on the same level with them at the moment in Laliga.Jude Bellingham and his team mates have taken it upon themselves to make sure they fight for the Laliga Tittle this season,and win it from Barcelona which are the current champions.However,Madrid will need to fight so hard to to be able to win the league because Girona are in a superb form,and they aren't ready to throw in the towel,they might be there competing fiercely with Madrid and Barca till the season is over,and if they should win Madrid or Barca,then it will really be surprisng to see them lift the trophy.

Real Madrid still has quite a long way to go in La Liga, and they should not be happy with their position at the top of the standings because the points they have are still very easy to catch.Real Madrid can be said to be successful and have managed to become the best team in La Liga when the points they have are quite far from those of other teams, as Napoli did last season. So far, Barcelona is still trying to take the first position, which is currently controlled by Real Madrid.

There is no reason to not be happy when a team is ranked 1st in a league unless they have lost several games and Real Madrid is doing great at the moment. It is not a perfect record, but when you all across the European top leagues, there is no team with a clean record of only wins except for PSV in the Netherlands, but this is really not the standard. If they win their last four games of the first leg of the season, it could add up to 50 points, which I think is quite a good result for Real Madrid. There isn't really much more to ask for except for the the flawless record like PSV has, but this has mostly to do with the fact that PSV doesn't have serious competition.

[Blitzboy]

However, Girona, who now appears confident unlike last season, is now certain to want to replace Real Madrid. and of course the goal is to become champion this season.

Girona becoming Laliga champions is not impossible, but it will be very difficult because they are competing with teams that can be said to always dominate in this league every season.
Girona failed when they faced Real Madrid even though it was a home match for them, so what about when they face Barcelona, my prediction is that if they can make a surprise in the match by beating Barcelona then that will be enough to lift the confidence of the Girona squad to perform even better when facing other strong teams such as Atletico Madrid, and doubts about Girona will begin to diminish because slowly they can prove that their current position is not the result of luck but excellent teamwork.

Given their big opponents, their season has been exceptional. They struggled against Real Madrid at home, but thats just one game. When they play Barcelona, they can change everything. Defeating Barcelona would strengthen the team's and fans' confidence. Its about showing they can compete with the best, not just the points. Their impressive performance versus Valencia shows they're not lucky - they're skilled and team-oriented. Who knows if they can continue this momentum into the Barcelona game and beyond? This season may have a new champion!

[Gaza13]

Playing at Barcelona Headquarters is not an easy job for Girona, especially since Barcelona has just achieved positive results at Camp Nou after successfully defeating other strong teams competing in the top four. Barcelona really wants to increase the number of points in order to reduce the points margin from Girona, a win will make Barcelona closer to Girona with a difference of one point.
Girona had to play very carefully at Camp Nou, Barcelona had found their rhythm again, the midfield trio of Pedri, Gundogan and De Jong managed to overwhelm Atletico Madrid with their solidarity. I think Barcelona will maximize this game to open up competition again. Victories over Porto and Atletico are motivation for Barcelona players to achieve three consecutive wins.

Yes, I agree with what you said, of course Barcelona will beat Girona for the next victory, Barcelona will definitely not waste playing at home. Of course Barcelona coach Xavi has prepared the right tactics next week when facing Girona, a tough week for Girona to widen the points gap in the standings. If you are not careful in the next match, it will certainly be a nightmare for Girona to reduce the difference in points with Real Madrid.

[QueenVera]

You've said it all and I am also seeing it from that picture. The possibilities are there with the current status of the league, Girona have shown great fierce and doggedness to win and take the championship of the La Liga league this time around but they are equally aware that it will not come like a piece of cake as we have always have those elite clubs dominate those opportunities over the time, so how can Girona face these guys and win in all their challenges or contests?

Nevertheless, Girona performance and efforts have come with splendour and a lot of admiration this season and one can only wish to see them outperform those elite clubs so they can stand a chance too. In the table now they are only second to Madrid with the same point, same win, same draw and same lose. They're performance in the 2 -1 win over Valencia have given them this stand and one won't say they have done bad. In fact, it was a good win.  Now Girona willbe faced with Barcelona in Camp Nou in their next La Liga match and a win over Barcelona will be another great record set and a morale booster for the players to work harder when they meet with Real Madrid on the 11th of February. However, this is a good time for us who are football lovers.

Barcelona didn't quite alright give their best in their last La Liga encounter against Atletico Madrid. They couldn't use the home advantage to their favor although their visitors ensured they defended Barcelona's only goal to the last. For their next game against Girona, Girona is also in the top stand and they have the capacity to take the game to the last level and draw against Barcelona. Although normally the host advantage ought to pay off but I don't think Barcelona themselves too would allow points to slip by.

 The club knows how's competitive the game would be and they'd do whatever it takes to ensure that they don't get a loss. None of the two teams would entertain a loss, so it's very much best that they end with a share of points. Both teams are currently on the same range of play, Girona still can outshine Barcelona as a result of the fact that they've been up and running this season and then Barcelona can be not too much confident due to the fact that they'd be the visitors and Girona who lost to Madrid would want to uphold a win and still maintain the 2nd spot on the Spanish league table.

The main issue Barcelona were having in that match was the fact that they failed to convert some really good chances to goal and Atletico could not even convert theirs also though Barca had more open chances to score.
The match against girona may not be easy and they may be the better team who failed to win just because they weren't able to convert their chances to goals while girona might be able to make good of theirs.

Not only can they be pursued, the article currently has the same points as Girona, both collect 38 points and are 4 points adrift of Barcelona who are ranked 3rd. Obviously Real Madrid cannot be complacent with what they have achieved so far, tough challenges still await them ahead.

Compared to Girona, their schedule is denser, because they have to play Champions League matches and in the Champions League itself, it will definitely be very tiring for them because the opponents they will face in the knockout round are really tough opponents.

Usually, with such a busy schedule, it will greatly affect their physical condition and the risk that always looms is a storm of injuries. They must anticipate things like this.

I really don't see Girona lifting the laliga title, in as much as I wouldn't want to talk down on any team owing to the fact that sometimes wonders do happen in football just like in case of Leicester city in the premier league some years ago, but I still do not envisage Girona winning it, perhaps it's still too early to decide because there are many game to go and many more big teams to play against and I doubt if they are going to beat any one of these big teams like Barca, Real Madrid, Athletico Madrid, real Sociedad, or Sevilla even if they are in a poor form at the moment.

Yes, I didn't see that discussion Copa del Rey either, even though it might be interesting. But maybe not, because Girona opponent is Orihuela (unpopular team) so the possibility for Girona to winning tonight are quite high. The odds for Girona @1.27, Girona seemed to be the favorite team.

TBH I don't know, about the strength of that team but the possibility for Celta to winning is also opened, because the odds for Celta currently @1.35 and become the favorite team in that match. Apart from Girona and Celta matches, we also have Cadiz vs Arandina and Bilbao vs Cayon scheduled in Copa del Rey.

Somehow, the top teams in matches like this sometimes only play with second tier players so ya,even though they are favorites to win, but in reality they can also fail in matches like this. Therefore, perhaps with these factors there will probably be only a few interested in betting on this event. But indeed, teams like Celta Vigo, Girona and Bilbao even though they are playing away but ya, ofcourse, on paper they are predicted to win . So ya, if the final result is as predicted, then of course they will win easily but maybe, with a note that they have to keep playing as they should when they play in La Liga too.

[el kaka22]

Not a bad week, Girona will be playing against Barcelona, that should be a fun game because everyone thinks that Girona is a great team but I think that they are not all that great, I believe that they are not actually all that good neither. I understand that the points they collected so far makes them feel like they are a good team but when they face Barcelona the real result will show itself.

I think Athletico Madrid will not have trouble against Almeira neither, and I think Madrid should beat Betis easily as well, so far this week it looks like quite good teams and good matchups, Bilbao may end up beating Granada as well that's true and could be wagered as well if you want to, feels like a good win weekend for us.

[Ndabagi01]

Yes, I agree with what you said, of course Barcelona will beat Girona for the next victory, Barcelona will definitely not waste playing at home. Of course Barcelona coach Xavi has prepared the right tactics next week when facing Girona, a tough week for Girona to widen the points gap in the standings. If you are not careful in the next match, it will certainly be a nightmare for Girona to reduce the difference in points with Real Madrid.

I agree with your point, but can't we give Girona some hope in this match? Remember, they've been playing well to maintain their current league position; it won't cost them anything to put in more effort in this match to avoid losing all three points to Barcelona; at the very least, they can settle for a draw in this match if they want to.

Barcelona has the home advantage and is in better condition to win the match, but don't forget that football can be unpredictable at times, and the unexpected can happen at any time. I expect that Barcelona will win this match, but it will not be easy, and if the match turns in favour of Girona, I won’t be surprised to see a different result from what the book makers have actually predicted in favour of Barcelona already.

Yes overall I agree, but the quality of the second tier players is also not too bad, if they against unpopular team in Copa del Rey like that. So in my opinion the possibility of winning is still opened for Celta Girona and Bilbao, but it also doesn't guarantee winning because football usually can make us surprise, especially this matches is not very important as La Liga or other big competitions in Europa. To be honest, I'm not too interested in betting on the Copa del Rey, unless it's a big team vs big team that will compete like Real Madrid vs Barcelona, because that will be very tense and challenging.

I don't think you watch Girona game in this season or you think they follow short cut to get to that position in the la Liga league table and, it will be difficult for Barcelona to score a single goal if they meet Girona players soon because they have squads that are capable to use Barcelona players to achieve victory at the end of the game. If Barcelona can beat Girona in their next game show that they will still win this la Liga league trophy because Girona has moved to second position to come close to Real Madrid and, if Real Madrid make any single mistake in their remaining games Girona will occupy the first position.

Girona is well set to break some special record this season because their coach is doing some dangerous work that will keep them displaying some signs that will make them to lift the trophy.

There is no doubt that the Girona team is playing very well. Their performance is amazing. Girona players are dominating and winning every match. The performance of this team is impressing everyone. However, the possibility that Girona will be the champion of La Liga is still slim. I think the Girona team will finish in the top four of the table and qualify for the Champions League. Real Madrid and Barcelona are still much stronger than Girona. These two teams are still the most favorites to become champions of La Liga. Although Girona performed well, they are not an experienced team to be La Liga champions.

I don't think Barcelona can win  Girona because Barcelona performance this season is nothing to write home about, I know that Barcelona use to be a very strong team that cannot be easily defeated but however it has become obvious that Barcelona are not longer the strong team that we use to know, because if it was when Barcelona was in a good form they would have been on the first or second position by now.

The only way Barcelona can win Girona is actually if Girona will fail to perform the way they normally do, but if they uses the same performance that led them to were they are on the table I'm very confident they will win the match.
