La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[hd49728]

A change of manager is a very common thing but it only happens when the former manager is replaced by a better manager. Ancelotti was not thinking of removing him because he is not doing well for Real Madrid, but he wanted to take charge of the Brazilian team, so he wanted to leave the club on his own. Although he wants to leave the responsibility of the club on his own, the club did not want to leave him at the moment because the club may not have found a manager with a good mind like him at the moment and another big thing is that the strategy that Real Madrid is currently playing is happy with the results of that strategy. Since Ancelotti has a good understanding with each player, if the team is to succeed, Ancelotti is the most likely to succeed.

Perez with his two times of working with Carlo Ancelotti, knows well that the coach is very good to maintain stability in the club. He is good at keeping good sentiment and working relationship between the coach and many star players who usually have very high ego.

The coach is also very good at giving young players some kind of excellent advice and enlighten their career at new positions. He succeed with Andrea Pirlo at AC Milan and it is not the only player who revived their career with Carlo management.

Real Madrid currently have many young players and they are going to buy some more youth players, Endrick will join the club soon as his transfer was completed months ago. With this transitional phase in the club, Perez surely saw that there is no other better coach for Real than Carlo.

Personally I wouldn't expect too much from his first debut, because it would be very difficult to adapt, especially since Madrid game is so classy that not all players are able to match it. At least Madrid fans can get what they have been waiting for.

I'm looking forward to this. There were rumors a few games ago that he would make the first game but that didn't happen. I hope this is true, because I feel he has extraordinary abilities and will make a difference. I was quite worried when he just arrived and was injured. I feel sorry that he will become the second Hazard. That may be what caused Real Madrid to change team doctors last November. Hopefully they find the right doctor who is smart in managing the player's condition.

Marcos Alonso the payer of Barcleen decided to have surgery because of the pain in his back and he is surely going to be out for a long time and this is bad news for Barcelona. However, they had no other way than to let this player have the surgery.
In the game between Barcelona and Shakhtar Donetsk, Marcos Alonso got injured and he couldn't play for Barcelona.
So far Marcos Alonso played in 7 games for his team.

Marcos Alonso absence after surgery to treat a problem in the lower part of his back will not really affect Barcelona performance because throughout this season Alonso has only made seven appearances in all competitions. He is starting to lose the trust of Xavi Hernandez due to his inconsistent performance, Barcelona is even ready to let Alonso go next summer even though on a free transfer, this season will most likely be Alonso last season in a Barcelona uniform.

It's not a bad news for barcelona. You can take a look at his stats with barcelona. He was rarely playing with the club and it means he has not become the main choice by xavi. Marcos will be leaving from barcelona with free agent. Xavi is not caring more about him.
Barcelona prefers to use other RB rather than him like cancelo. cancelo consistently becomes the starting line up for barcelona. The absence of marcos alonso will not give impact to the performance from the club.

Barcelona is still owning some good RB to play which is also helping the club. This is not a serious problem encountered by barcelona. I would try to sell marcos before he was injured but yeah since it's impossible to predict the future.
The better if xavi puts his focus on to the other thing like provide a good striker for barcelona since lewandowski is not good like what he used to be. The era of him is finished.

GWS for marcos but this guy seems has not place anymore in the barcelona right now. Xavi is rarely putting him as starting line up.

This is very bad news for Barcelona because they are losing key players, and I believe that is why they are not performing well this season. I believe that Barcelona will not be able to compete with Real Madrid and Girona this season because they are not in the form that allowed them to win the La Liga trophy last season. Xavi should simply try to sign some new players this summer to strengthen the team and compete with other clubs. Barcelona is facing Las Palmas, and I feel the match will be a bonus for them because they are not in good enough shape to compete with Barcelona. I believe they will collect three points and surpass Athletico Madrid in the league table if they failed to defeat Girona, Although the match will be very difficult because Girona are in great form and are serious about winning the league this season but Athletico Madrid can defeat them if they will play more then them. But I still believe that laliga trophy this season is for Real Madrid.

It is difficult for Xavi to bring in new players, while Barcelona finances are very bad, currently they can only wait for free players from the transfer market and can free players really be relied on for their skills? sometimes they are even old, like some of the Barcelona players who were brought in for free at that time.
I dont doubt the performance or skill of free players but wouldn't it be better to bring in players at a price that isn't too high who can make a good contribution to the team to be able to strengthen the defense or attack line for the team but back to finances Barcelona can't bring in quality players like us expect.

maybe if this season Barcelona can't win the La Liga title I will understand because the condition of this team is really in a bad condition and this is a difficult burden for Xavi to be able to try to reach the top of the standings with the existing players and these injured players maybe not before. It is expected, but injury can happen at any time if you cannot maintain your physical condition. but I hope that there are big investors who invest in Barcelona to get quality players.

regarding the competition at the top of the standings, it doesn't matter to me if Barcelona can't compete in La Liga or in La Liga because there are already representatives from Real madrid who will beat Girona and hopefully at least get runners up.

[asriloni]

La Liga matchday 19 of 38 will begin tomorrow and Getafe vs Rayo Vallecano will be team opening that matchday match, currently on matchday 19 have super big match between top 2nd teams will face 3rd standings team Girona vs Atletico Madrid. Current position, Atletico Madrid left 7 points from Girona and likely is not small points left if want keep for fighting La Liga tittle race and Girona won't loss their points to pressure Real Madrid on top position with the same 45 points awhile.

Girona vs Atletico Madrid will be our concern this is not an easy match but somehow I'm sure Girona is not defeated I mean the worst thing that can happen is a draw or Girona win because so far no team can beat Girona except Real Madrid, will Atletico Madrid give Girona's 2nd defeat? I know anything can happen it's just that this time Girona is still favored because playing at home and is motivated to replace Real Madrid at the top of the standings, my prediction is Girona 2-1 Atletico Madrid or ended in a 1-1 draw. For Getafe vs Rayo Vallecano I think Getafe deserves to win because Rayo Vallecano in the worst performance in the last 5 matches 3 times lost 2 wins.

Maybe yes, maybe no. Girona has very bad record against altetico madrid. I can't use it as my data to determine whether girona will be win or lose but i knew that most important thing if girona will perform with the best squad.
The situation may undergo a remarkable transformation due to Girona's decision to give their all against Atletico Madrid. Bookies were favoring girona slightly to win the game against atletico madrid. It seems they have learned from the match between girona vs barcelona.

The bookies employed that result as a means of gauging Girona's strength relative to Atletico Madrid, but I have a suspicion that historical factors heavily influenced the outcome of this match.
The draw seems to yield a favorable outcome for both clubs, as they can aid Real Madrid in firmly holding onto the top position this time. Atletico madrid was the strongest rival for real madrid. Im sure girona will face difficulty in beating atletico madrid.
These clubs will be playing safely or they will be feeling so good to have draw as the main resut. Michel needs to put the main concern on the defensive line.

Atletico madrid was a club that's very often in using counter attack.

[Tony116]

I believe from now on it all depends on his success over the next few years. At some point I thought that Ancelotti wants to slowly pull out of the business because it is too stressful for him to have to be available 24/7 year round as a Real Madrid coach, but he seems to be in a great condition physically and mentally and he still seems to be enjoying the game. He is on fire sometimes despite his age and despite being this calm guy he usually is. But you can see that he wants more trophies especially in the Champions League. He could now have his final little era and let's see what his decision will be in 2026.

He still seems strong enough to handle the business and that's why he agreed to signing the renewal of his contract till 2025 if he has got challenge with it I'm sure he wouldn't have opted for the contract and even the management of Real Madrid wouldn't have agreed to the extension of his contract aswell.

I was thinking he would have gone to the Brazilian team coach them over a period of time and probably end his career there with a retirement but then he has still got the will to be at Real Madrid and that's why he will still agree to staying in Madrid as against going to Brazil. He has still got love for the Madrid team and I'm optimistic he will help the team further scale even greater heights in this season and subsequent seasons to come, so I'm not expecting any less from him and his boys this time having accepted to stay back at Madrid rather than move to Brazil.

I was actually a little surprised to see that he has extended his contract. Because I thought he was going to Brazil as the coach. But I guess he thinks he still has a lot to gain with Real Madrid. That's why he has extended his contract till 2026. Now I think Real Madrid is going to have a good and successful next couple of years as well. I also wonder if he will be able to bring in Mbappe into the squad. If he does, it is definitely going to be insane. Let's see what kind of squad he builds in the next couple of years. Expecting at least one champion's trophy as long as he is here.a

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

The current situation is very confusing. On one hand, Real Madrid needs a number 9 but they are performing well without them. On other hand, despite these rumors, I don't think Real Madrid would sign Mbappe after he kind of betrayed Real Madrid a few years ago and signed a deal with PSG. Everyone was thinking that Real Madrid got him but he said otherwise. It makes everything confusing.

Real Madrid are doing well without a number 9 right now. Joselu is doing kind of good but he is not a world class player after all. The rumors are not strong either about Mbappe coming to Real Madrid. Endrick Felipe won't be coming this season as far as I know. Things are getting very interesting and I will be watching every moment of it.

Real Madrid's condition is not in a poor position because their current strength is still strong enough to compete in La Liga, however this is talking about jersey number 9 and so far they have not yet determined a suitable replacement to replace the previous player. There are times when Real Madrid's front line is unable to score goals and this is a consideration why in the upcoming transfer market they have to bring in another striker as a step to maximize the front line.

Joselu is not the typical player that Ancelotti likes and he only started a few games. Mbappe would be a solution for the front, but we never know what his condition will be like now. Belligham cannot be forced to continue scoring goals because there are times when he will stop for various reasons and if that happens Real Madrid must have other options.

Barcelona are in a dire situation and it’s quite unfortunate that Xavi is caught up in the midst of this. He wouldn’t be able to make the key signings he wants and with this current squad, he’s not achieving his best as he wants and that can be quite demoralizing for a team that won the league the previous season, well apart from financial crisis they also got hit my injury crisis which has been a big setback for them this season.

 His hopes is in probably free signings or low amount signings which most times doesn’t prove to be effective and it’s quite crazy. Well he could try to free up some players and that way get some money for himself to make a key and major signing. With this squad, I don’t think Barcelona will be coming close to winning any trophy this season as even Girona is one team that’s not joking too in the La Liga and moreover there’s still an Atletico who can hit on them hard.

I was also equally surprised by the news that Carlo Ancelotti had apparently extended his contract at Real Madrid again. Because since last season the issue of Carlo Ancelotti leaving Real Madrid when his contract ends and becoming coach of the Brazilian national team has been very hotly discussed. Even the news that appeared at that time also looked convincing. So I also started to believe this. But fortunately this is just an issue. Because now the reality is that Carlo Ancelotti has extended his contract for 2 years.

Real Madrid is clearly not ready to be abandoned by a great coach like Carlo Ancelotti who has overseen Real Madrid for 5 seasons (sorry if I'm wrong). And Carlo Ancelotti has awarded many trophies to Real Madrid in those 5 seasons. There are around 10 titles that Real Madrid has won under the coaching of Carlo Ancelotti, namely 2 titles in the Champions League, 2 titles in the Club World Cup, 2 titles in the European Super Cup, 1 title in the Spanish League, 2 titles in the Copa del Rey , and 1 Spanish Super Cup. (Sourch)
Well, that's an extraordinary achievement and it might even be difficult to find a replacement for a coach as great as him. So this news will definitely be welcomed by all Real Madrid fans.

Ancelotti had stated before he received the new contract that he was more comfortable with Real Madrid, so it was not surprising that Ancelotti ended up staying until 2026 with Real madrid. Of course, Ancelotti stay with Real Madrid breaks all the rumors regarding his future and also breaks the rumor that Real Madrid is looking at Xabi Alonso as his replacement. So, with that, we will see a change that Ancelotti will make to bring Real madrid back to being champions in Laliga and also in the Champions League.

Well, this season Real Madrid has managed to make a quite successful transition from old players to young players and it was all done under Ancelotti coaching. I think Ancelotti sees Real Madrid potential as the strongest team currently available, therefore he is staying there to win a few more trophies. He is also 64 years old and it is very likely that he will choose to retire with Real Madrid in his coaching career.

Despite being in financial crisis, Barcelona team managed to win the title last season. Because their squad was strong enough. But there are several weaknesses within their squad this season. Players are facing injuries. As a result, Barcelona's defense is now quite shaky. Together they depend on Lewandowski to score. If Lewa does not perform well, it will be difficult for Barcelona to win the match. The team is not getting the expected performance from Gundogan. Barcelona will need to prepare big funds in the winter transfer window if they want to stabilize the squad. If not, they will not be able to fight for the title this season.

In the game between Barcelona and Shakhtar Donetsk, Marcos Alonso got injured and he couldn't play for Barcelona.
So far Marcos Alonso played in 7 games for his team.

Asides from his passing skills and football intelligent quotient, Marcos Alonso has nothing more to offer anymore, he has won a lot of trophies already from his time with Chelsea and has worked with so many talented managers.
I do feel like it's time to let him go, they should set up a good meeting and terminate his contract on mutual agreement. He is slow and not pacy. Football lately needs a very pacy fullback and his not that kind of player. I remember how Jordi Alba dominated that role for Barcelona. Barcelona should get someone like that.

They shouldn't invest in old players, Balde looks good but I don't understand his drop in performance. With the new addition in attack, Barcelona can score more goals now. But they should get a new defensive midfielder.

I think the rumors about Ancelotti going to Brazil at the end of the season really fooled most people and that includes me because however looking at what happened it was actually a bit convincing especially when there were some statements from the media and of course people who have interests in Brazil that resulted in this being a surprise because Ancelotti extended his current contract.
But now the clarity is there and now Madrid don't need to mess around about coaching issues because indirectly this has actually become a hill that Madrid still entrusts everything to Xavi including his future projects which indeed prioritize young players who have good potential.

Now we just need to wait how Ancellotti continues to manage Madrid especially with the situation of players who still have many gaps due to injuries.
This season is still a good season for Madrid but looking at the events of last season Madrid disaster occurred in the middle towards the end of the season and this needs to be noticed by Ancelotti at least he must find some alternatives to anticipate this so that the incident last season does not happen this season. 

[Hirose UK]

After Ancelotti contract extension with Real Madrid, several interesting rumors have also spread, namely that there are attempts to bring in defenders on short contracts or on loan.
He is Manchester United player Raphael Varane, after all, Ancelotti desire to bring in the Manchester United defender has also been confirmed.
It just that we don't know whether Manchester United will actually loan out the defender they have or keep him because Manchester United itself is not in good condition this season.

Bringing in defenders is actually not priority for Real Madrid and of course without bringing in Raphael Varane they can still play well.
In addition, in the next few matches, we will only play against team that are not much stronger than them, so using the composition of reserve players have will definitely still be able to provide maximum performance.

Barcelona squad this season is still quite strong, but they seem to have lost their balance in several matches, such as against Girona, where Barcelona had to give up at home. In the second half of this season, if there are no changes made by Xavi, of course Barcelona will have difficulty maintaining their ranking. Girona is quite strong this season and they have even managed to beat Barcelona so Barcelona must be able to evaluate their weak points so that they can be corrected in the transfer market.

Real Madrid is also quite consistent, they have succeeded in taking over the leadership of the standings from Girona, but for now both teams have collected the same points. So, in the upcoming match, Girona will face Atletico madrid again. Of course, if they want to regain the top of the standing, Girona must beat Atletico madrid.

But what does "quite strong" even mean in the world of football when there are teams like Manchester City and Real Madrid and everyone in Barcelona wants maximum success? I think that is when the moment has come to speak the truth and the truth is that Barcelona is not at that level of the other strongest teams. You could say that most likely Girona is better off than them at the moment.

But we will have some insight on this interesting question when Barcelona plays the game in the Champions League against Barcelona. When you say that they are still quite strong, I guess they should not have too many problems to beat a struggling Napoli.

[bering]

This Friday i was interested to see the match between Sevilla vs Bilbao and we all know Sevilla was not in the good shape because they have to fight to avoiding relegation zone and recently Sevilla also was eleminate at champion league and this also caused why Sevilla have to change the manager several times this season and their opponent Bilbao was in the good shape compared to them because this team so far can gets 10 wins and only lose 3 times from 18 matches and the latest is Bilbao can able to stole 1 point at Girona home ground

On Laliga Sevilla last winning at home was happened on September when they beat Almeria with big scores 5-1 and since that match Sevilla was never able to gets the winning results again at home they even only gets 4 draw and 1 lose from Getafe and for Bilbao actually their away matches records isn't too impressive because so far they only gets 3 wins from away matches but compared to Sevilla their performance is still far better and about team condition Bilbao still rely on Gorka Guruzeta as centre striker and so far he is Bilbao top scorer with 8 goals along with Inaki Williams and my predictions is Bilbao will going to win this match and the odds for Bilbao looks very good @2.29

I think that is when the moment has come to speak the truth and the truth is that Barcelona is not at that level of the other strongest teams. You could say that most likely Girona is better off than them at the moment.

I would also say that Girona is currently still much better than Barcelona and even Barcelona itself is not able to beat Atletico Madrid in the standings after eighteen matches even though it is able to equal points with Atletico Madrid. Now Real Madrid is even competing with Girona for the top spot this season, although I personally am still quite confident that Real Madrid could be the most successful team in La Liga this season by winning trophies.

But we will have some insight on this interesting question when Barcelona plays the game in the Champions League against Barcelona. When you say that they are still quite strong, I guess they should not have too many problems to beat a struggling Napoli.

Everyone really needs to see this in order to be able to measure the strength of the two teams after passing through this month of January, because we will also see the level of difficulty that the two teams will have when they return to compete in the Champions League this season. The round of 16 is quite an important round for all teams so each team will definitely do better to cover up their difficulties so far.
