La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Tony116]

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.

I don't know how some persons see football,you are under- estimating Girona,but forget that they have been ontop of the league for a while,and are still playing a better football to show that they are serious and they mean business,and are up to something this season.However,I know the game is really going to be a tough match,and it won't be easy for Barca to win them like that,rather,it would end in a draw,but I still think with the way Girona are playing,they have a chance of grabbing the three points in this encounter.
Barcelona are playing really well,but when it comes to scoring goals,they find it difficult in that area because Lewandowski is no longer in the kind of form he was last season.If I am to give my prediction on this game,I will go for a draw.

On the other hand, indirectly you seem to have underestimated Barcelona who will play at home. Barcelona is the best team compared to Girona, even Girona themselves will not say they are better than Girona for whatever reason. I am not leading an opinion that belittles any team, including Girona, but on paper Barcelona is the better team.

Just because Girona has more points in the last 15 matches than Barcelona, ​​that doesn't make Girona completely superior against Barcelona. No one would dare bet $100 on Girona to draw against Barcelona, ​​unless you just want to throw away the money you won in the previous match. I'm sure of that, so I think some of you are just underestimating Barcelona and its capabilities.

The match between Barcelona and Girona is going to be very interesting. Because this match is a must-win for Barcelona. If they do not win this match, it is going to be pretty much a disaster for them. I am pretty sure if Barcelona is unable to win this match, Atletico Madrid is also going to get ahead of Barcelona on the table. Because I also agree that Atletico Madrid is probably not going to have any problems trying to beat their next opponent. So it is all on Barcelona if they actually want to stay at the top of the table and also ahead of Atletico Madrid.

[Josefjix]

I think Real Madrid's job won't be easy at all this week. Because they are playing an away game against Betis. The games between these teams have nearly always ended up with close scores. Betis have mostly been a challenging opponent for Real Madrid. I think this can be seen again at least in this away game.

Betis are one of the least losing teams this season. Because of getting too many draws they are at the seventh position in the standings. However if they get even one point against Real Madrid that would be in favour of them. There is a possibility for this in my opinion and I don't want to risk my betslip by adding Real Madrid win to it.

I'm going to play this game, it will be infavour of Real Madrid. There's no presence of risks when Madrid will play Betis. There's no worth for any match, other than featuring the odds to win and the big ones to become losers. Real Madrid facing Real Betis, a draw game? In the first place, there's absolutely no need to worry because Real Madrid are topping with fully confident, winning three points becomes so easy for Carlo Ancelotti men, they have aims and threats and I don't count Betis to become one of these problems for Los Blancos.

It is not an El Classico and I am quite sure that it has less importance than any match between Barcelona and Real Madrid. Barcelona will need to win it not because this match is a big one but it is because they are currently the champion of La Liga and are defending the crown.

If they can not beat Girona and get three points from this opponent, they will waste one chance to reduce a point gap against Girona from 4 points to only 1 point but they will also give Real Madrid an opportunity to expand the four point gaps to 5 or seven points gap after this match day.

I really think Barcelona are considering Real Madrid as their biggest competitor for La Liga title in this season. Girona is like an underdog and they will not be able to maintain their excellent form for too long.

Of course, this is something I think about as Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are two teams that make more sense to consider as title contenders than Girona. I know there is a possibility of Barcelona losing some important games like against Girona or Rayo Vallecano, but it seems very abnormal to compare Girona and Barcelona's achievements so far just because Girona is having a great season.

Some users go too far and that's never a good thing. As a Real Madrid fan, of course I would be happy if Barcelona dropped points, but I would never underestimate Barcelona against any team because of their achievements so far. Xavi knows his team has a good lead against Girona, but he is also aware that Girona is a team that has the potential to make them lose points.

@Falconer personally I’m expecting Barcelona to treat Girona as a tricky opponent and I don’t think that Xavi will even try to underplay them because he knows if they drop points now it’ll hurt them a lot. Also on the other hand Girona would be keen to win this game because it would boost their morale and effectively tell other team’s they’re firmly in the title race.

I agree with you about Real Madrid-Betis. Meeting Betis, especially at their home field, is never easy for Madrid. Their previous clashes were nail-biters, so I expect this one to be too. Betis is known for shocks, especially this season with their draws. Even if they're seventh after these draws, they're still dangerous. This Madrid bet doesn't appeal to me. Madrid is in great form, so I don't doubt them. Betis could steal a point or more in their current form. These matches make the competition attractive and unexpected

Points will be deducted and the exact points will be added if a club plays well, and clubs' rankings will tumble. Xavi Hernandez has mentally prepared for his team's future performances as well as the fiercely stable Girona this season. Girona requires winning points, while Barcelona demands winning points as well. Unfortunately, only one of them will gather three points, or if feasible, they will record a draw tie, and both of these teams will go home with only one point. It can big surprise if Barcelona doesn't win the match and allow Girona to come out topping.

Real Madrid would still find means to win the game, finishing this half strong is something Real Madrid can do and I know they'll see through this game. Yes without some key players, but they have the old G's who can still come in to help decide the game. When you take a peep at their past meetings, they've had nothing more than three goals on the last five meetings. Would be a safe one to bet enhh?

Real Betis was consistent all of October until November, ( Late November ) when they started losing important points. In the last five, they know they can't boast of nothing. That's a poor one honestly. Two wins only. Optimistic this is mot the game Real Madrid would lose. They should still be at the top at the end of the game.

[DanWalker]

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.

Girona are going to make it very difficult for Barcelona. I don't get why people feel they don't stand a chance against Barcelona.. I also believe Barcelona are favorite and they have a better chance to win because they've been getting better recently, but concluding that Girona don't stand a chance is just wrong.
Why I'm anticipating that match is because I believe it would be a very attacking match. Both teams don't sit back and defend. I don't believe Girona would sit back and just allow Barcelona to be comfortable on the ball.

Another match that would be interesting to watch is Betis vs Madrid.
Although Betis is not in top form, they can cause trouble for Madrid. Real Madrid would prefer Girona and Barcelona to draw so they can win Betis and extend their lead further. It's a very promising week for La Liga .

I don't think the match is going to be such an easy win for Barcelona. Because I think Girona is very much capable of beating Barcelona, especially in this season. I am saying that just because of the performance that they have shown so far. Girona has been really good in this season. So it is definitely going to be a mistake from Barcelona if they think that they are going to win this match easily. And that mistake is something that might actually cost them the match in the end.

On the other hand, Barcelona definitely has to win this match. If Barcelona fails to win this one, I'm going to have serious doubts about them being able to defend the La Liga title successfully.

I would say the 1-0 win against Atletico Madrid in the last match will give the Barcelona players a boost mentally. The  Barcelona team is strong but the performance of this team is not regular this season. The team is consistently failing  to perform well. Atletico Madrid is one of the strongest squads in La Liga this year. Since Barcelona managed to win this match, I believe Barcelona will  not make any mistakes against Girona. Barcelona is very strong in home matches. Since Barcelona is playing at home against Girona, I consider Barcelona as favorite in this match and I am willing to bet on Barcelona to win.

An interesting match I won't want to miss this week. Interesting because Real Betis have always shown that resilience in fighting battles with Real Madrid and always maintain a fierce competition in the pitch with the Elite Madrid club over the time. I took my time to go through the last 5 games they played together and it's a result of right competition between the duo, you find more draws than wins in the last five games they've played both home and away for both clubs. And whenever there was a win in those matches, Real Madrid always find a way to manageably escape a narrow win over Real Betis.

Why it will be interesting this time around is that a draw can be threatening to Real Madrid right now as Girona is right behind them with same point difference and a drop in 3 points will seriously injure the club as that may bring them to the second or third position down the table. Whereas on the other hand, if Real Betis wins the match, it will push them to the fifth position surpassing Sociedad and Athletic club which would have been a dream and good luck for them. So, both clubs will have to be hot on each other in this game and I don't think there will be much difference in terms of performance difference between the duo on this game as compared to the last 5 games they've played. So, it is either a narrow win or a draw for both clubs.

Betis has been stabilizing tremendously in recent weeks. This won't be a simple task for Real Madrid and is never easy against Betis in their home stadium. But often times you don't know what you get from them. It seems to be more stable for now, but I wouldn't be surprised if Real Madrid wins the game like 1-3 or 1-4. However, I would also not be surprised if Betis can win some points against Real Madrid. It's a good game and Barcelona and Girona will be watching closely as this would give them a chance to get closer to Real Madrid.

Real madrid is very strong. It's quite hard for betis to equalize its performance to the real madrid in this game. Madrid is now trying to miss and opportunity to get three points. In fact, madrid is better in everything compared to the betis.
Like you said above that if im sure that real madrid will be trying so hard in defending its position as the a club that is leading the la liga right now. Missing three points are going to be a disaster caused by madrid can take an advantage due to the match between barcelona vs girona.
It's hard to miss it. Madrid must not get unacceptable result like draw or lose. It's caused by once madrid will get draw against barcelona will help madrid to extend the gap even bigger by two points.
Madrid needs to keep up consistently gather three points from betis in the upcoming match. Im sure that bellingham or rodrygo will become a superhero for real madrid.

-snip

very correct opinion and I fully support your opinion on this matter, even Girona is just a small team that is lucky enough to be able to take advantage of the situation when the big teams are busy in other competitions but in the end other big teams return to the La Liga path, of course everything changes and Girona will eliminated from the top 3 in the standings even though Barcelona is currently involved badly but I am sure that Xavi team will not fail below the top 3 and comparing Girona and other big teams is not fair for me.

match in the UCL will still continue and if Barcelona cannot continue their journey in the UCL and only Real Madrid can continue to the final round and Barcelona returns to focus on La Liga it will be quite easy for Xavi to get rid of Girona even Atletico Madrid will do the same thing to shift Girona.

Yes, I think Real Madrid in this match will not be easy to get three points, especially now that many Real Madrid players are injured, besides that, Real Betis always makes things difficult for Real Madrid every time they face Real Madrid. I predict this match will be fierce even if Real Madrid can win, but with a narrow victory.

But regardless of Real Madrid's current condition, I think Real Madrid has an effective strategy from Ancelotti to achieve victory in this match. We know that Ancelotti's strategy always has surprises. because I also think this victory is important to keep widening the points gap from their competitors in the standings. I will still bet on Real Madrid in this match, sometimes in betting we need courage to break the doubts within us.

I predict this match will be fierce even if Real Madrid can win, but with a narrow victory.

Tchoumeni, Vinicius Junior, Dani Carvajal and Camavinga will be missing in this match. All four are key players in the Madrid squad. It is also not certain whether Luka Modric will be in the squad for this match. In this situation, it will be much more difficult for Madrid to beat a team like Real Betis. The outcome of the match will depend on Bellingham's performance. If the defenders of Real Betis can stop Bellingham in this match then I guess Betis will be able to get points from this match. But Betis is unlikely to win. Because in the last 5 matches against Madrid, Real Betis have drawn 3 matches and lost 2 matches. Real Betis can't win even a single match.

Real madrid was able beating girona and barcelona. How can madrid feel struggle just to face betis? Betis was not that strong. Real madrid can win against it but the game may be a difficult game. I consider that betis was a good team but in fact, barcelon and girona is in higher level compared to the betis at this moment. Real madrid will be winning the game and people can take it as their bet. Im sure mostly people were picking real madrid instead of betis in this match. Madrid's odds is not that big but it's quite fair.

Betis are one of the least losing teams this season. Because of getting too many draws they are at the seventh position in the standings. However if they get even one point against Real Madrid that would be in favour of them. There is a possibility for this in my opinion and I don't want to risk my betslip by adding Real Madrid win to it.

I knew that and betis may be declining. Im not seeing this club as a threat for madrid. Ancellotti will be using the full squad again without vini. I would like to see rodrygo to carry the club again. his performance was always so amazing when he played as left winger.
Im thinking madrid is going to win the game with 2-0 as the final result. There's no need to expect lots of goal to happen in this match. Gain three points are the main target by real madrid.

Madrid can do that.

Real Betis this season has only been quite good in their defense. But in building attacks I think Real Betis will not be too dangerous for Real Madrid's defense. Because I see their squad is not very good at building attacks. Indeed, Real Betis has had more draws this season, with 15 matches we can see that Real Betis has achieved 7 draws. Which means almost half of all matches are draws for Real Betis. Honestly, I don't know whether this is a good thing or not. But yeah, Real Madrid can't be careless in this match. Because Real Betis, which has a fairly strong defense, and could build a quick counterattack and overwhelm Real Madrid.

But I'll probably still bet on Real Madrid. Because I see that Real Madrid has many advantages over Real Betis this season. So I think Real Madrid will win even if only by 1 or 2 goals.

[Salahmu]

I'm going to play this game, it will be infavour of Real Madrid. There's no presence of risks when Madrid will play Betis. There's no worth for any match, other than featuring the odds to win and the big ones to become losers. Real Madrid facing Real Betis, a draw game? In the first place, there's absolutely no need to worry because Real Madrid are topping with fully confident, winning three points becomes so easy for Carlo Ancelotti men, they have aims and threats and I don't count Betis to become one of these problems for Los Blancos.

Real Batis is always quite difficult to win in there home matches this season because if you check there last 15 matches they have played they have not lost any home matches to any club and also there performance has greatly improved than there last season La Liga however they have made more wining than the ones they have lost, one of there match that got me thinking was there match against CD Hernan Cortes they win Hernan 12-1, the level of performance they put on that match if they had use that kind of performance on every of there matches they would have climbed more than were they are on the league table.

However Real Madrid on the other hand is like a La Liga and champions League champions because they never joke with the two leagues so however we can see that Real Madrid is currently on there good form and at the same time they are leading the La Liga table and even there previous meeting in the history of there matches with Real Betis they have always stands on the upper chance of wining real Betis so with there performance this season I also believe that they would win Betis.

[klidex]

I would say the 1-0 win against Atletico Madrid in the last match will give the Barcelona players a boost mentally. The  Barcelona team is strong but the performance of this team is not regular this season. The team is consistently failing  to perform well. Atletico Madrid is one of the strongest squads in La Liga this year. Since Barcelona managed to win this match, I believe Barcelona will  not make any mistakes against Girona. Barcelona is very strong in home matches. Since Barcelona is playing at home against Girona, I consider Barcelona as favorite in this match and I am willing to bet on Barcelona to win.

This is quite a difficult match for both clubs, Girona cannot be underestimated even though this club was previously just a mediocre club,but this time Girona trying to look amazing this season, but Barcelona is a big club in La Liga which always dominates the title with Real Madrid.
I think Girona will experience The difficulty in this match is because it will be played at Barcelona's headquarters and Barcelona's chance of winning is greater in this match, namely 63%. I think Xavi has prepared this match carefully so that he can win and try to close the gap with Girona and Real Madrid.

Barcelona has pretty convincing odds to be the favorite. I think the bookies will bet on Barcelona winning this time.

I can't bet on Barcelona to win Girona this weekend, because Girona is one of the competitive club in La Liga and they're also enlisted in the title race. Xavi Hernandez working entirely to push his club to next levels, winning becomes very important for them despite their poor form, remember they're elite club and its not ideal for them to start playing like some kind of average clubs. Barcelona are not in good shape this season, the differences and signs are are already lined out because they’re probably witnessing poor results in league matches.
