La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

Real Madrid vs Villarreal

The first half is over and Real Madrid doesn't seem to have any trouble winning this match. Bellingham and Rodrygo put Real Madrid ahead in the first half with one goal each, so I think Real Madrid will secure their lead in the standings over Girona.

Talking about Bellingham, this player is truly special. Bellingham has given a new color to Real Madrid's game this season and he often scores goals and changes the direction of the game. He is one of the players who is getting better day by day, it is true that Real Madrid brought him in because at Bellingham he seems to be a striker who plays as a midfielder.

However, Real madrid's centre back injury woes continue with alaba being the latest patient. Real Madrid now has only two fit centre backs (Rudiger and Nacho) with all the other 4 being injured.

It's not good, but I hope Alaba doesn't suffer a very serious injury. He's needed because the defense won't be any stronger than it looks.

It's Real Madrid 2:0 Villarreal at half-time. Guess who is in the score list yet again? 
Until today, Villarreal were the only team to beat Real Madrid at the Bernabéu this year. I thought it was going to be a very hard match, but to me this looks done and dusted by half-time.
However, Real Madrid's center back injury woes continue, with Alaba being the latest casualty. Real Madrid now has only two fit center backs (Rüdiger and Nacho) with all the other 4 being injured.

I knew it was going to be a win for Real Madrid, Villarreal is not in shape enough to stop Madrid at the Bernabeu this season, but I didn't expect it to be so easy for Madrid.
It's like Villarreal came just to lose. They're playing like they want to concede. They've been horrible. Although my bet is on Real Madrid, I expected to see more fights from Villarreal. They look lost already.

Madrid has done well so far despite their injuries. Even without Vinicius they still managed to win. They try to not drop too many points and they've been doing well. Slowly they're putting more gap between them and Barcelona who look lost too so far this season.

They played in front of their own supporters but they were the ones who got into trouble because they had to lose with a score of 0-3 in this match.After falling behind by 1 goal Sevilla played more boldly by making sporadic attacks which actually made their defense slacken because some defenders participated in the attack which made the situation in the defense line empty and this could be used well by Getafe with their fast counterattack.

With this result, even though Sevilla are still above the relegation zone but their points are still not safe because they have the same number of points as Cadiz who are in the relegation zone and now I think their focus should be greater for La Liga because now they are out of the Champions League zone.

Yep, this is not very good for Sevilla but indeed when looking at the current conditions and the situation of Sevilla in recent seasons, especially for the beginning of the season, they always have the same performance, I am actually not too surprised by the results they have, it's just that this is quite upsetting to see.
Sevilla are too focused on the attack but they forget the defense that should be well guarded. Even though they applied 5 defenders but Getafe's fast counterattacks actually made some of the defenders they had unable to return to their positions.

Currently with the current situation, it's actually not very good for Sevilla but when looking at their schedule which will only focus on La Liga and the Copa del Rey alone I think this will still be very good for them and they can still return to mid-table positions even though they have to give up positions in the Champions League and Europa League next season.

Now by looking at the situation that occurred and the condition of Sevilla, which has indeed been eliminated from the Champions League, there is no reason for them to hold back and focus more on La Liga.
At the moment Sevilla just have to do their best for their future in La Liga, Forget about Champions League or Europa League problems because they are far behind now because what is more important now is that they must try to make improvements in the squad especially for their goal productivity problems and defense. Because at the moment they are also in an uncomfortable condition considering their position is very close to the relegation zone.

There must be some improvements in this winter transfer if they really want to be serious about staying in La Liga next season because if not it is not impossible to happen last season when they were very difficult to move from the bottom standings happened again this season.

Too bad for Atletico Madrid they conceded a 2-0 defeat by Bilbao away from home, Atletico Madrid dominated the game mostly but could create lots of  chances to win Bilbao, even the few chances they got couldn't be converted to a goal, however Bilbao really utilized the advantage of their home ground, they stood their ground and created alot of chances and where lucky enough to score 2 goals, this victory would really boost the morale of their players.

Atletico Madrid's inability to optimize the opportunities that existed, even though they had many opportunities, ultimately resulted in them losing the result of the match. Yes, maybe they are both top clubs and they are both strong, but it is said that Atletico Madrid's position should be superior. Not only that, Atletico Madrid had high dominance in the match but unfortunately they failed in the next week to attack effectively.

Now, there is a match between Real Madrid vs Villarreal. Madrid has been leading 2 - 0 at first. But unfortunately, Villarreal could add a goal in the second half to be 2 - 1. this is still a tough match for both. From their game, Real Madrid should win because they have more chances to gain it and much stronger .

now it has been 3 - 1

Barcelona's players are too self-centered when it comes to playing football, and even though they have talent that many other teams in the league lack, they are still unable to score goals. Barcelona also has a younger population than Real Madrid, which is likely the reason behind their selfish tactics. I can even wager that Barcelona will not be able to win any trophies this season. I didn't find anything wrong with the team's coach because he was doing everything he could to ensure that the players could play well. All of Barcelona's players were involved in the match, but they were unable to defeat Valencia, a team that Real Madrid was enjoying themselves with.

Lewandowski's age will be a common criticism.Since he is unable to perform as well as he once could, why did Barcelona choose to purchase him from Bayern Munich without taking his age into consideration? Lewandowski can still play well; the young players on the team are just being egotistical. I predicted that Barcelona would win because Athletic Bilbao defeated Atletico Madrid, giving them the chance to play well and score more points. Barcelona is only ahead of Atletico Madrid by a single point, but nothing changes in my opinion because Atletico Madrid outperforms Barcelona.

In La Liga, Barcelona and Real Madrid are two teams with very high players' quality. They've got more young stars and the clubs are  seemingly promising as weeks and seasons go by. The only difference is the idea of team coordination and spirit. Real Madrid knows that they're meant to set the right build up to goals and so they play their specific roles to the best of their ability and leave the finishing work for the forward man.

 In Barcelona, the team is lacking in a number of areas. Lewandowski has age taking toll on him and his team mates are gradually turning every game to a one man show. This also adds to their reduced performances too. The coach should be proactive to fixing up these loopholes as they're very much a threat to team's growth.

[Weawant]

Robert Lewandowski have deliver Barcelona over the years, and this season is different from the rest, we have watch how Lewandowski recover from crucial injuries and now he's facing difficulties to bounce back to form. Bruno Guimarães can not exits St James Park this summer because he's proven to be one of the very key players for Newcastle United. Even though he's keen on leaving the club, only the influence coming from Eddie Howe will restrained him from leaving, you know why? Because Eddie Howe have declared him to be a very key part of his project for the club.

No doubts age is gradually telling on Robert lewandoski and he isn't performing optimally as he has been doing before and ofcos he has served Barcelona in a good capacity even when he just recovered he almost immediately joined the team back in making sure they win their games and probably maintain their position on the table.

Barcelona is yet to fully recover from their financial crisis hence it will be really difficult getting a good replacement for lewandoski by the January transfer window. It's high time they begin to think in the direction of getting some other players to help them make up for their players who currently seem not to be in a very good form enough to play for the team and to also their defense line, they can aswell opt to loan some players. Felix is one key player who can turn a very good help for Barcelona if he is properly taken care of.

Yes, maybe they are both top clubs and they are both strong, but it is said that Atletico Madrid's position should be superior. Not only that, Atletico Madrid had high dominance in the match but unfortunately they failed in the next week to attack effectively.

In the match against Bilbao, Atletico Madrid got difficulty in attacking. They only made 7 shots, meanwhile Bilbao made 16 shots. It was very unfortunate, Atletico Madrid really dominated the match, they almost won the ball possessions 65% but they were lack in shot attempts. Bilbao played effectively, they made many shot attempts although they only got about 38% ball possessions. It seems Atletico Madrid needs to learn again how to build effective attacking in the match.

Now, there is a match between Real Madrid vs Villarreal. Madrid has been leading 2 - 0 at first. But unfortunately, Villarreal could add a goal in the second half to be 2 - 1. this is still a tough match for both. From their game, Real Madrid should win because they have more chances to gain it and much stronger
...............
now it has been 3 - 1

The current score: Real Madrid 4-1 Villareal.
After 2 goals made by Bellingham and Rodrygo, there are more 2 goals made by Brahim Diaz and Modric.
Real Madrid is very dominating the match, no doubt that Real Madrid will win this match.

Funny ASF!! The could round the goals up to make it five tonight. I think it's time to substute Jude Bellingham, Carlo Ancellotti should do that because the lad be using his emotions to play. Not that he's playing poorly but just to protect him from getting Injured. All four goals tonight are beautiful goals. I love that one touch pass from Luka Modric to Jude Bellingham. He'll be definitely missed when he leaves Real Madrid. He has won it all including the Ballon d'or.

They shouldn't be too excited, Girona are right behind them, tomorrow if everything goes smoothly, they'll go back to the top of the league.
The Nico brothers did well this week, I saw the highlights of the game only to see that beautiful goal from the Junior Nico. Playing this way will earn him a spot in the upcoming Euro's.

Villarreal performance was extremely labeled mediocre, they couldn't maintain the balance of the game and conceded so easily after much pressure on them from the hosts. Carlo Ancelotti keen on reclaiming the first position from Girona this season, this is a tough fight to be won for Los Blancos though there are threats. The absence of Vinicius Júnior doesn't affect Real Madrid because they're winning and having easy access to accumulate three points. It's 4-1 on the scoresheet and Real Madrid leading. This is the exact meaning of incredible performance.

In La Liga, Barcelona and Real Madrid are two teams with very high players' quality. They've got more young stars and the clubs are  seemingly promising as weeks and seasons go by. The only difference is the idea of team coordination and spirit. Real Madrid knows that they're meant to set the right build up to goals and so they play their specific roles to the best of their ability and leave the finishing work for the forward man.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are always dominating La Liga, they have much better squad quality than other teams. It is because they are popular and have great financial level. Sadly, Barcelona has a problem with their financial, that makes them difficult to maintain their squad quality. Meanwhile Real Madrid, they still can maintain their squad quality because they can buy potential players.

In Barcelona, the team is lacking in a number of areas. Lewandowski has age taking toll on him and his team mates are gradually turning every game to a one man show. This also adds to their reduced performances too. The coach should be proactive to fixing up these loopholes as they're very much a threat to team's growth.

Barcelona too relies on Lewandowski for scoring goals. They may forget that Lewandowski won't always play in his best level. Sadly, Lewandowski got a severe injury and he must take a rest a long time. It makes him to play again in his best form, he needs time to return his best performance. Unfortunately, Barcelona has no another productive attacker, it leads to the lack of goals made by Barcelona players lately.

The current score: Real Madrid 4-1 Villareal.
After 2 goals made by Bellingham and Rodrygo, there are more 2 goals made by Brahim Diaz and Modric.
Real Madrid is very dominating the match, no doubt that Real Madrid will win this match.

Real Madrid performed quite well in today match, they played with full ambition to win this match and the score is 4-1 for now, of course victory is already locked by Real madrid because the match has entered the final minutes. Real madrid is back in the lead in the standing after adding 3 points from today match. My prediction was correct where Bellingham would score a goal in this match and also Luka Modric he also contributed 1 goal and 1 assist.

So, we will see the match between Girona vs Alaves in tomorrow match because if Girona is able to beat Alaves then they will again lead the standing this week. On the other hand, Barcelona is increasingly lagging behind Real madrid and Girona because Barcelona failed to achieve maximum results in yesterday match.

[Furious 7]

I won't underestimate Villareal against Real Madrid today because they always found a way to score against them and produce great results and taking points so I think betting on Villareal to score might be a good decision. I can also see them scoring in both halves with a total of 6.2 odds which is super fine especially for a team that always scores against Real Madrid when they face each other. A minus on this one would be that Villareal is not having a great season at all.

After the equalizer I thought Villarreal would be able to keep up with Madrid but that's unlikely to happen.
Madrid were very good in this match and their dominance was maintained and they even scored 4 goals in this match.
Jude came back with a goal and I also liked Rodrygo and Brahim Diaz who scored again.
Although I was worried about Vini's injury, when Brahim Diaz was given more time to play it seemed like he didn't waste the chances he got and always played well and even created goals when given the opportunity.

Likewise for Rodrygo, it seems like he's hot late this season because indeed when the first few matches he always failed to contribute more but slowly he rediscovered his momentum to score goals.

[EFS]

Real Madrid is playing really good. This 4-4-2 formation suits them. When Modric and Kroos play together they are something else. Rodrygo and Brahim Diaz raised their performance, Bellingham is same. They have a good fixture until February, it would be a big surprise if they lose points until that time.

Villarreal performance was extremely labeled mediocre, they couldn't maintain the balance of the game and conceded so easily after much pressure on them from the hosts. Carlo Ancelotti keen on reclaiming the first position from Girona this season, this is a tough fight to be won for Los Blancos though there are threats. The absence of Vinicius Júnior doesn't affect Real Madrid because they're winning and having easy access to accumulate three points. It's 4-1 on the scoresheet and Real Madrid leading. This is the exact meaning of incredible performance.

I'm confused about Villareal who were Champions League semi-fanalist two season ago, and that was not their first semi-final, but they keep struggling in La Liga. They are a team who can't maintain the team's quality after being good in a season. Villarreal being labeled as mediocre could suit them in a certain way. Their inability to maintain balance under pressure is something they never solve after all this time.

Real Madrid is portrayed as a team determined to reclaim the top position from Girona. The absence of Vinicius doesn't really affect Real Madrid. It looks like Ancelotti has found solution for their attacking line which was seemed vulnerable at the start of the season. This is presented as an "incredible performance" which suggests that Real Madrid's performance is not dependent on the presence of a certain player like Vinicius. Real Madrid has demonstrated exceptional skill, efficiency, and effectiveness in the match. All this show that Villarreal's performance was lacking, while Real Madrid, under Ancelotti's guidance, showcased an incredible performance by dominating the match, scoring goals, and maintaining a lead.

They have a good fixture until February, it would be a big surprise if they lose points until that time.

At the end of the day Real Madrid won 4:1 making them go ahead Girona on top of the league depending on the outcome of Girona's game. The Madrid coach Ancelotti showed another master class with his formation giving Jude Bellingham and Rodrigo same opportunity to flow in their play and Modric and Toni Kross the opportunity to distribute passes easily and it helped them to really cruise the game and win easily I think they should stick to the 4-4-2 formation because it's helping the team style of play.

[GxSTxV]

Incredible performance by Real Madrid with scoring 4 goals tonight, I expected even more goals while Real Madrid players were on fire and put Villarreal under pressure forcing them to make mistakes in the defensive line. They won  and dominated from start to finish despite conceding a goal with a counter attack at the start of the second period. On the other hand, Villarreal had a bit of a tough time on the field and The Meringues took full advantage to ensure the 3 points, Real holds the first place in laliga for now and we're looking forward to the Girona match tomorrow.

Moreover, The MVP goes for Bellingham for sure the guy doesn't stop he already scored 17 goals in laliga. On a bit of a downer, though, Alaba took a hit with a serious knee injury during the game. Sending positive vibes and hopes for a speedy recovery to him.

[W Jr.]

I won't underestimate Villareal against Real Madrid today because they always found a way to score against them and produce great results and taking points so I think betting on Villareal to score might be a good decision. I can also see them scoring in both halves with a total of 6.2 odds which is super fine especially for a team that always scores against Real Madrid when they face each other. A minus on this one would be that Villareal is not having a great season at all.

The performance of Villareal's players has been quite poor this season but there is no chance to underestimate this team. Many times in the past we have seen Villareal's players perform well and win against big teams. Villareal even won the last match against Real Madrid by 3-2. For these reasons, there is no chance of underestimating this team.

Carvajal, Vini, Camavinga are not present in Real Madrid squad today. These three players were very important to the Madrid squad. If Villarreal can hold off Bellingham today, they have a chance to pick up the points.

The mach is ongoing now, I can see Villareal only managed to win 1 game from their last 5 games. They will be facing Real Madrid away from home. So I don't think they stand a chance against Real Madrid. Real Madrid will get the 3 points easily this time. Although a few key players are injured in the Real Madrid squad, it's not going to be a problem. Players like Joselu have been performing very well recently. Villareal's performance this season is not very good so if they manage to achieve any point against Real Madrid it will be very surprising for everyone.

Real Madrid won 4-1 with a superior game and did not let Villarreal play. Barcelona lost 2 points and was far out of the race. Now all eyes will be on the Girona match. If Girona wins, they will continue to be in the leadership seat, but in case they lose points, Real Madrid will become the new leader of the league. This championship race in La Liga is very surprising.

[tiCeR]

The thing is that these clubs know they are fighting against the newcomers and Girona can make the wonder happen. But this is not in their best interest and we need to figure out what everyone really wants.

It is easy to judge, but anyway. We got to deal with it and I am sure we will get along.

However, the journey for Girona is still long and I think they can stay toe on toe with the top for quite a while, but it won't be easy for them.

Moreover, The MVP goes for Bellingham for sure the guy doesn't stop he already scored 17 goals in laliga. On a bit of a downer, though, Alaba took a hit with a serious knee injury during the game. Sending positive vibes and hopes for a speedy recovery to him.

There will not be a speedy recovery or nothing. Seeing the knee injury of Alaba we can say that the season is over for him. It is the same injury that Eder Militao and Thibaut Courtois got earlier this season..
Now Real Madrid have a great list of injured players, so in addition to these three players, we have also Vinicius, Camavinga, Guler and Carvajal. Ancelotti is lucky to have substitutes for all these injured players. Another coach in another team will get a serious negative results after losing many main players and will be sacked for that.
Real Madrid at the opposite, continued to have positive results whether in La Liga or in UEFA Champions League. Scoring 4 goals against Villarreal was magnificent, like that they are the first in the ranking until now, waiting to see Girona game tomorrow, but also they are 7 points away from Barcelona which is missing points these days.

Real Madrid remained top and they're no longer competitive to share the excellent outcome of the game, though they might be struggling but at the same time, they don't give room for underrated actions. Girona might be underestimate this season but they got good taste of the ball and craving for more better game results this season. They're ranked second position with an outstanding game to play this season, we've watch how these clubs fumble during the long run and they can't stand the chances of hitting harder than expected.
