La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Mayor of ogba]

The match was quite tough for FC Barcelona, but Barcelona managed to beat Las Palmas in the dying minutes with a penalty kick. With a win over Las Palmas, FC Barcelona has recorded a second consecutive win, extending their unbeaten run to 3 matches in the league. Barcelona has moved to the third position in the La Liga table after defeating Las Palmas.

Barcelona almost started the year with not so good results if they didn't get a penalty to ensure a 2-1 win because it was quite difficult for Las Palmas to score again to get 1 point.
This is still a victory even though it is not very convincing, and because Atletico Madrid lost to Girona it means that Barcelona can move up to third place but actually it doesn't really matter because their efforts to maintain their chances in the title race are very difficult because the difference of 7 points is not an easy thing because Girona and Real Madrid are quite stable and can recover quickly when they get bad results. Maybe Barcelona can focus on the Copa del Rey, the Spanish Super Cup and the Champions League. In these three championships, they still have a chance, even though the Champions League is as difficult as winning La Liga this season.

I think Barcelona is lucky to have a player like İlkay Gündoğan in this team. In the game between Barcelona and Las Palmas, they were about to lose two important points against this team but İlkay Gündoğansaved his team and in the last moments of the game he used the penalty kick and scored the second goal for Barcelona to help them win the game with a 2-3 result against Las Palmas.
However, there is still a huge gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid or Girona in the La Liga table.

Since İlkay Gundogan arrived in Barcelona from Manchester City he has been useful for Barcelona and also helped Barcelona to win matches. I wonder why Pep Guardiola could allow a player like İlkay Gundogan to leave Manchester City. Barcelona's win yesterday against Las Palmas has put them back in the La Liga title race.

However, there is still a huge gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid or Girona in the La Liga table.

Barcelona won with game 1:2, but the main thing is that they won, and the score is secondary. The first half was very difficult for Barcelona, but Xavi was able to turn the game around in the second half and we saw a completely different game.
Yes, you are right Gundogan is a very important player for Barcelona, but he was the same player for City. I couldn’t understand then why he made such a decision and decided to leave the City, to be honest, I still don’t understand why he did it. Barcelona is 7 points behind Real Madrid and Girona, and so far it seems that they will not be able to join these teams in the title race.

Barcelona were very lucky to get 3 points against las Palmas. However, compared to the previous matches, Barcelona players have performed very well in this match. However  Las Palmas players were  confident in the home match. They  were able to attack a lot in this match. Las Palmas got a 1-0 lead in just 12 minutes of the match. Barcelona could not score any goal in the first half. However, Torres scored the first goal for  Barcelona at the beginning of the second half. Gundogan's performance was good throughout the match. After 90 minutes, Gundogan did not score from the penalty opportunity. And Barcelona won the match 2-1.

Xavi Hernandez will not be sacked afterall, Barcelona was lucky enough not to end the game in a draw tie, alot of mistakes was done on Barcelona side, but any how they manage to win the match. However, Las Palmas was the team that messed up big time, a match they were leading with 1-0 have suddenly changed to a draw tie and also they couldn't hold on much longer because Barcelona keep pressing and another goal was netted injury time after Las Palmas player was issued a red card, that weakened the entire squad that was planning for atleast draw tie.

Im glad Xavi won't be fired. The contest was a rollercoaster, right? Barcelona barely beating Las Palmas wasnt pretty. They must improve. Their offense and defense aren't what they used to be. Its worrying. The first half was boring, and Xavi was clearly unhappy. Though they won, it seemed like a loss. Barcelona must improve. They're still a top team, but they must play like it to stay there.

What a lifeline, Gundogan's penalty! Barcelona avoided a humiliating tie with that moment. This win should wake them up. We must stop relying on late saves. Xavi and the team must unite, repair those mistakes, and play Barca again. Its about proving they're still top contenders, not just keeping third place.

There are four teams in the Lalliga this season that are in a very active competition with each other,those teams have gotten a pattern of play which makes it easier for them to win other smaller teams when they meet them,but they only struggle with each other when they go head to head,and the team that is much stronger will eventually win.Madrid,Girona, Barcelona and Athletico have been the four best teams in the Lalliga,and they are the teams that will qualify for the top four and the Champions league next season.I think with what I have seen so far,Girona can go on to win the league,while Madrid will come out second this time.

We can indeed expect more from Girona this season. But on condition that they must be able to maintain their current performance. Because Girona always exceeds everyone's expectations this season. In fact, they managed to beat Barcelona and Atletico Madrid in their first meeting this season. And among the 3 teams, only Real Madrid is able to beat them this season. Meanwhile, Barcelona and Atletico have to admit that they are not much better than Girona this season.

Personally, I still see Real Madrid as having the potential to win the title. But Girona also has the potential to do it this season. So I can conclude that Girona and Real Madrid are the two clubs that will compete most fiercely this season. Both of them even have the same number of points at the moment. But if Real Madrid has a busier schedule and Girona doesn't. From this it can also be considered that your suspicions about Girona could come true.

I wonder why Pep Guardiola could allow a player like İlkay Gundogan to leave Manchester City. Barcelona's win yesterday against Las Palmas has put them back in the La Liga title race.

Barcelona scouts good players that would helped the team in crucial moments, last night was a perfect illustration for a player to uplift the club. Las Palmas was leading from first half, they were desperate to net another goal but finally succumb because Barcelona didn't hold back, they reciprocate their actions and levelled the scores, then injury time, Gundogan comprehend a stunning penalty kick into the post. İlkay Gundogan deserves his flowers, his presence in Camp Nou have been significant and he's a key player in the midfield room for Barcelona.

At this point Sevilla is a sure target towards LaLiga 2  because it's clear that current team have no desire to actually play football and save this club for a real disaster that is relegation. It will also be the first time in club history when they will face this situation and the fact that they are in debt over 800 mil $ makes me thing they do want to go to LaLiga 2 and re-build a fresh team there under a new project. 

[rojan]

In today's match Las Palmas vs Barcelona two teams came to the field to play in the Spanish League. Barcelona team won the match by scoring 2 goals in today's match. I placed a bet in support of Barcelona team in today's match. I won the bet in today's match because Barcelona team played very well. But the game started.  Palmas player scored the first goal in the first 12 minutes. On the other hand, Barcelona team player F. Torres scored the first goal in the 55th minute. İ.  Gündoğan scored the 2nd goal at 90+3 minutes.

It doesn't look like Sevilla has any hope of surviving in La Liga and they are now increasingly miserable because they sit in a position close to relegation. Several years ago they were a strong team in La Liga but for some reason they fell so deeply recently that they were unable to compete with even weak teams. Sevilla seemed to be running out of time and the previous defeat against Athletic Bilbao also hit them hard.

Sevilla vs Athletic Club In today's match between two teams, Athletic Club scored the first goal in 30 minutes of the game. Then after half time, A. Paredes scored the second goal in 76 minutes. Sevilla team players tried hard but could not score any goal in today's match.  .I thought from the beginning that the players of the Sevilla team would not be able to play well and would not be able to score any goals. The reason is that the Sevilla team is far behind the Athletic Club team in the points table.

It's terrible stats from sevilla. The club was owning the ball even often than bilbao but it's only making two goal attempts. It seems sevilla will be trapping at the current position for years. The club needs to rebuild its financial first after it was paying a huge debt.
The new coach was not giving a good impact to the sevilla as it was also going out from UCL earlier. I can't even believe how the financial problem was destroying the club like makes it back to be a mediocre club again.

Im putting all of my respects toward mendilibar since he was able helping sevilla to get the europa league this season. I believe that if sevilla would not get it without him but the management was sacking him too early without even gave him the second chance to play. Im not even satisfied with the stats owned by sevilla and it must admit that if bilbao is far stronger than sevilla. The nuance is sevilla likes a mediocre team this time. im not mocking sevilla but just said bsaed on what i have seen from the result of previous matches. Sevilla is shit now and it has no chance anymore to get back to the what it used to be.
snip

The result did not surprise me. Athletic club is a team which is in the 5th position and doing very well constantly. Sevilla on the other hand, I don't know what happened to them. They can't seem to be doing anything at all. They are right around the relegation zone with 16 points. Who knows they might even get relegated this season. Who would say that they were the team who were in the top 4 just 2 seasons back? Last season they performed poorly as well and this season it is even worse.

But credits should be given where it is due. Athletic Club are now in the 4th position because Atletico Madrid lost that match against Girona. Athletic Club may even catch Barcelona if they can keep up since Barcelona is struggling.

In today's match Las Palmas vs Barcelona two teams came to the field to play in the Spanish League. Barcelona team won the match by scoring 2 goals in today's match. I placed a bet in support of Barcelona team in today's match. I won the bet in today's match because Barcelona team played very well. But the game started.  Palmas player scored the first goal in the first 12 minutes. On the other hand, Barcelona team player F. Torres scored the first goal in the 55th minute. İ.  Gündoğan scored the 2nd goal at 90+3 minutes.

I'm not sure whether Barcelona can be called playing well in this match due to the fact that the two teams almost played a draw if there was no penalty in the 93rd minute Barcelona might only get 1 point but yeah Barcelona was saved by luck. Based on statistics, the two teams played evenly it's just that Barcelona controlled the attack a little but the attack didn't mean anything I mean it's not dangerous attack. Overall, Barcelona's performance has not been optimal even in the last few matches we can see that almost all matches end in a draw and in my opinion Barcelona has problems in defense, in the last 5 matches Barcelona conceded 8 goals that is a bad record as a champion candidate in La Liga. In the next match Barcelona will play away against Real Betis well, we know that Real Betis is a team that is difficult to beat when playing at home I'm afraid Barcelona will miss points in this match maybe just a draw or even a loss.

Gundogan was the savior for barcelona but oh wait, refereee was the real savior for barcelona coz it gives a penalty for barcelona. The result against palmas told us the real quality of barcelona. It has been degrading a lot compared to the last season.
It feels barcelona is not the same like last season when it was always playing very well against other club. It was even beating real madrid three times in a row unlike this time.

Losing some players will make the situation even worst. Barcelona is going to lose some like pedri which is bad caused by he has been always helping barcelona to build a good attack toward its opponent.
There are some players will leave from there soon. I expect cancelo and felix will not extend their contract. Pedri will be leaving from barcelona as free agent too.

The hard time for barcelona becomes even closer than before and i can't even expect this club to stay at the top 4. There will be tougher match for barcelont to come soon. It looks so pathetic.

Luckily, an additional goal from the penalty spot in injury time meant Barcelona avoided a draw. Barcelona recent dramatic victory really helped them in the standings, the additional three points took them to third place with a difference of seven points from Real Madrid and Girona. Gundogan became the hero of Barcelona's victory even though his goal came from the penalty spot, but in general Barcelona's performance still has too much to improve.
Barcelona is still having difficulty winning against a team like Las Palmas due to its declining performance, Xavi Hernandez will have difficulty leading his team to win the title again if they don't immediately improve their performance in the second half.

[Furious 7]

I've just read this news and it could indeed disrupt the situation for Madrid and I agree because Ancelotti always does risky things like this when talking about his coaching because he thinks it can still be done.
My expectations are actually still the same as before despite statements like this from Ancelotti but hopefully he will change his mind and find at least one new defender for Madrid so that the situation can be minimized but if indeed he still entrusts the current players by hoping that Nacho, Tchouameni and Carvajal can improve so as not to bring new players then there is nothing wrong with entrusting this to Ancelotti because we know for sure he is more familiar with the current situation in Madrid.

Today's match Tchouameni was invited back to be a defensive center and the result was 3 points they won even though it was a narrow victory but at least 3 points they managed to achieve.

Yeah, it could be risky, especially given the situation they found themselves in last season when they were forced not to bring a striker when Benzema was in and out of the treatment room due to injury, which proved fatal for Madrid, but hopefully, that won't be the case this time around.

Ancelotti always has his way of looking at things but i don't think there is anything wrong with looking for alternative players who really fit the criteria at centerback which is currently still a lot of gaps because of the lack of players who fit there even though Nacho and Tchouameni performance is still relatively good today but i don't think it's wrong if they try to anticipate things more.

Now something like this is still not too late and it could be that this is just one of the plans of Madrid and Ancelotti who really don't want rumors about them looking for players to be revealed because however when looking at some of the conditions that have occurred in the past few seasons we know that Madrid always wants to be more closed with the media so that the Mbappe and Madrid incident some time ago does not happen again and I think at this time we just need to trust what Madrid will do in the end because they always surprise in the last few seasons including at the beginning of this season when they released 3 strikers at once and made loans and returns of players that were actually not too unexpected because their money can still be used to buy players. only need to trust what Madrid will do in the end because indeed they have always made surprises in the last few seasons including at the beginning of this season when they released 3 strikers at once and made loans and returns of players who were actually not too unexpected because their money could still buy more expensive players but in the end the return of Brahim Dias and the loan of Joselu proved to be still quite good until now.

At this point Sevilla is a sure target towards LaLiga 2  because it's clear that current team have no desire to actually play football and save this club for a real disaster that is relegation. It will also be the first time in club history when they will face this situation and the fact that they are in debt over 800 mil $ makes me thing they do want to go to LaLiga 2 and re-build a fresh team there under a new project. 

Sevilla's performance is still very far from expectations but saying they will move to Segunda Division is too hasty in my opinion.
Currently Sevilla's performance is unpredictable because they can immediately play very well and shoot up at least to secure their position in the middle standings like last season so even though now they are still playing not too well but saying for sure they will go down the caste and leave La Liga I think this is still too hasty because after all their focus is currently only La Liga and we know their characteristics when only focusing on 1 competition.

[asriloni]

Since Luis Mendilibar was sacked, Sevilla performance has gotten worse this season, they failed in the Champions League and also did not perform well in La Liga. Ramos et al received defeat after defeat in Laliga, even in yesterday match when they faced Bilbao where Sevilla had to give up at home with a score of 0-2. As a big team that often closes the season in 4th place, of course there have been major setbacks in their performance this season. There is no serious improvement from Sevilla management in the transfer market, so it will be difficult for them to achieve maximum results in Laliga.

4 defeats in the last 5 matches in La Liga is certainly a pretty bad performance from them. I even think they will be relegated this season as their ranking gets worse in Laliga. If you look at their defense line, it's not too bad this season, but their performance in attack is really not very aggressive in scoring goals. Maybe they have to improve on a large scale in this transfer window.

There were some bad things affected the performance sevilla thies season

1. Mendilibar sacked
2. So many key players who helped club to won europa league last season left caused by sevilla put all of them for sale.
3. Financial issue

These things were affecting the performance from sevilla. I know that if sevilla was performing even worse since mendilibar got sacked. Im not doubting if sevilla performed like a mediocre club since it was losing everything due to the financial issue. Idk whether sevilla has sorted it our or not. Financial issue was always harming sevilla.  Sevilla has no hope anymore to go up again. Im just realizing the truth that if sevilla has so many bad players on its club.

There had been some players leaving from there and it was adding very bad impact to the performance of sevilla. The new coach has very limited resource to make the club to perform better this time.
It was also giving limited room for the club to growth. This is the main problem of sevilla that can be solved through money.

[piebeyb]

Barcelona is still having difficulty winning against a team like Las Palmas due to its declining performance, Xavi Hernandez will have difficulty leading his team to win the title again if they don't immediately improve their performance in the second half.

Yes that's true and I think this season belongs to Girona and Madrid to win the Laliga title, Barcelona will definitely have difficulty catching up if they play inconsistently in the next few games, Xavi may have a tough task to make this team continue to maintain its best performance , because in my opinion they still have a chance to stay in the top four this season even if they don't win the Laliga title.

The narrow victory against Las Palmas was actually more than enough for Barcelona, but they almost shared the points with a draw and will make the hunt even more difficult. If Barcelona wants to continue chasing Madrid and Girona, at least they will continue to be on the winning path to be able to get closer to the gap. points from both top clubs and just waiting for Girona and Madrid to make mistakes at the end of the season.

Bringing in Gundogan is great for Barcelona because at least they can make some difference in midfield and his ability has been tested so it's not wrong for Gundogan to be in Xavi's midfield at the moment but if you say the reason he can change at crucial times is actually a fifty-fifty despite the good performance he had before the penalty.

In this match it was still very good for Barcelona because they got back 3 points while securing their 3rd place from Atletico's pursuit but until now the problem is still the same for Barcelona where they are still struggling to make the advantage in terms of opportunities and possession into goals and in today's match it was actually seen how they were confused by Las Palmas, which in terms of level was very far below them.

There is still half the season and I am quite optimistic for Sevilla they will crawl up from their current position. Sevilla is a big force in La Liga and even though they are currently in a place where they shouldn't be, that can still be resolved well in the future. They just need to avoid the relegation zone and must regain their confidence to win. It's not easy when a big team continues to experience things like this every season and they have to provide the best results for their fans so they can still watch them compete in La Liga next season.

Improving the squad is the main focus that they must complete because the current squad is still deemed incapable of stabilizing results. Management needs to take action and not be too late so that it is difficult to catch up with other teams who are above them.

You had good scouting team but you have no money to recruit the players then what's difference? You can argue barcelona has best scouting team but what about its financial. Can barcelona sign the new players without even raise some money to pay its debt first?
The club needs to put more focus onto how to solve the financial issue that is still happening in barcelona. Xavi needs to sell a lot of players and this needs to be executed as soon as possible.

Im not hoping a lot with this team caused by barcelona was always facing financial trouble like consistently got lost rather than profit from selling the players. Barcelona was also rarely getting surplus on its balance sheet.
It's finished for xavi since club will not try to provide him a lot of money to buy the players. Barcelona needs to accept that if the club managed by the bad person for years.

To be honest when it comes to Barcelona's current scout I think the purchase of Gundogan is just one success out of many failures they have made in player transfers.

No disrespect intended but we also seem to be aware that Barcelona's player purchases in recent seasons have been more flops than successes.
It may be true that when talking about Gundogan, Lewandowski and loans like Cancelo and Felix it is very good but in the end we also cannot forget some players who were even brought in very expensive like Griezmann, Dembele or further to Coutinho actually it cannot be compared and proves that the scout from Barceloan is still a lot of negative sides than the positive.

This season they did bring in Gundogan very well because besides being free this player is also very useful in midfield but that does not mean there is no failure in their scout because in the end they also brought in Oriol Remeu who was very standard of performance and of course Victor Roque who was predicted to be a wondeerkid was overrated by the media even though he only played and made his debut in the middle of this season.

Las Palmas' quality of play was very good and they led 1-0 in the first half of the game but Barcelona went into the second half with the score level at 1-1. Barcelona scored another goal and won the match in which case it can be said that Barcelona's quality of play was not good. Because it is so difficult for Barcelona to win matches against teams like Las Palmas Barcelona were the team expected to be at least 2 goals ahead of Las Palmas but it wasn't enough for Barcelona as they went into extra time and scored another goal by penalty short after 90 minutes of play.
