La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Ahli38]

Oh Lord! Even though this was the match I was most looking forward to and I actually fell asleep before the match started. I woke up when in the 88th minute and the score was tied at 2-2. I didn't expect the Madrid Derby to go into extra time again and maybe this would be a tiring match for both teams. Here Atletico had more power to win in extra time because they had more time to rest before heading into this hot derby than Real Madrid and the result was as we saw that Atletico won by scoring two other goals in this round.

Real Madrid's fatigue factor was the cause of this defeat and it was seen that several players did not appear at their best in this match. I saw Carvajal and Bellingham very tired and maybe other players felt this way too. Well, with this result Real Madrid were eliminated from the Copa Del Rey and had to accept the fact that they would not win the treble this season.

Atletico Madrid managed to get revenge in this match. And actually Real Madrid continued to build attacks and put pressure on Atletico Madrid's defense from the start, but I appreciate the counter attacks that Atletico Madrid always carried out. I am happy because as usual this derby is a match that is bombarded with lots of goals.

But it was quite funny in the Supercopa De Espana for Real Madrid after scoring 2 goals in extra time. And in the Copa Del Rey Atletico Madrid also scored 2 goals in extra time. what a dramatic match. but I really enjoyed every minute of the match. And I am also satisfied with this result. Although I was also a little annoyed when Real Madrid failed to take advantage of the opportunities they had.

Always interesting Atletico and Real Madrid matches. Until now Real Madrid get 1 trophy, failing in the copa del rey I think there is no need to be sad. There's still La Liga and of course the UCL. I think this year Real Madrid are very likely to get 3 trophies. By failing the Copa Del Rey, they can focus on La Liga and UCL. This will reduce the busy schedule and minimize player fatigue and injury. Furthermore, Anceloti seems to have to add some players to replace the injured players.

[Republikcoin.com]

Don't forget that on February 5th we will still see the Madrid derby again, but this time in La Liga and this means we watch the Madrid derby 3 times in the space of a month, it's tiring, isn't it? but this is very exciting.

I didn't expect that the meeting schedule for these two teams was so tight and there were almost no breaks to continue rematching in various competitions. I really hope that both teams can perform optimally like the previous match and present something that makes us excited.

Well, Atletico is 100% worthy and I agree with you in favoring Atletico to win the Copa Del Rey because with that kind of performance and making Real Madrid so overwhelmed, they are the only ones who deserve to lift this trophy. Barcelona are not that good and since losing to Real Madrid in the supercopa final, they have been nothing more than a mediocre team. Sorry in advance, I have to say this, I think El Clasico is starting to get boring and for now the Madrid derby is much more interesting.

I also like the Madrid Derby more than El Clasico (for now) because Atletico Madrid will exert much greater strength than usual when they face Real Madrid. In fact I see as if they have much greater motivation and energy which makes the match even more interesting. fierce.
I will not underestimate Barcelona, Atletico Madrid's victory over Real Madrid in the Copa Del Rey is not a guarantee that they will be able to win the Copa Del Rey title easily, I think Barcelona still has the same percentage as Atletico Madrid to win the Copa Del Rey title this season This.

Indeed, Atletico Madrid strength has increased much more than last season, even this season Atletico Madrid managed to beat Real Madrid twice. First in La Liga and second in the Copa Del Rey. This defeat buried Real Madrid dream of achieving the Treble Winner this season, which Real Madrid has never done in its history. For Atletico Madrid, the victory over Real Madrid was a way of revenge because previously they were eliminated by Real Madrid in the Super Copa. Both Atletico Madrid and Barcelona have both qualified for the quarter-finals of the Copa Del Rey, so there is still potential for both of them to win the Treble Winner this season, although it is a bit difficult, but the opportunity is still there because they are still competing in three competitions. I hope this season's Copa Del Rey Final can bring together Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid.

[Toro iskandar]

This was an unexpected victory for Atletico Madrid and with it Atletico Madrid was able to prove that their team could win and play quite well.

This is indeed very disappointing for Real Madrid fans, but in my opinion, in the next match, Real Madrid will avenge their victory and not let Atletico Madrid win again easily. And in the next match, Real Madrid will play even more than that by showing even better performance and increasingly dominating possession of the ball.

The home factor turned out to be very influential for Atletico Madrid when facing European giants, even though previously Real Madrid was able to beat Atletico Madrid with a big score in the semifinals of the Spanish Super Cup but in the Copa del Rey Real Madrid was defeated by Atletico Madrid with the same surprising score, it turned out that Atletico Madrid really avenged their previous defeat and they took advantage of their home opportunities so well in this match that they had to knock Real Madrid out in the round of 16.

It is deeply regretted even though I thought Real Madrid could get rid of Atletico Madrid in this round like before considering Real Madrid's very good performance recently, but it turns out they had to suffer a defeat which disappointed Real Madrid fans who had high hopes for Real Madrid to win this title. Even though the Copa del Rey is not Real Madrid's priority, this title is just as important as the La Liga and Champions League titles.

It could be said that the home factor is very influential in the team's victory, as shown by Atletico Madrid, which is currently able to beat the giant Real Madrid team in a fierce duel 4-2 and thanks to this victory, Atletico Madrid has qualified for the next round. the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey even though they had to fight as hard as they could. perhaps by going through extra time until the match is finished. with the Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid duel in the round of 16 of the Copa Del Rey at the Civitas Metropolitan stadium by taking advantage of mistakes made by Real Madrid players at that time.

It is true that recently the game shown by Real Madrid players has been very good, but when they met Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid seemed to make a lot of mistakes on the field so it was easy for Atletico Madrid to score lots of goals. and able to beat the current European giants.
Yes, even though the Copa del Rey is not Real Madrid's priority, the Copa Del Rey event includes prestigious events such as the Champions League and La Liga.

Atletico Madrid finally avenged their previous loss to Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey after the last Super Cup Semi-Finals. In their last encounter where Real Madrid won 5-3 after the official time ended 3-3 and leading to extra time. a very similar scenario happened in yesterday’s match, reaching extra time with a final score of 2-2. But, in this time Atletico Madrid secured victory with a better performance, the opposite of the patterns seen in previous Derby matches. Despite Real Madrid equalizing in the last minutes then going to extra-time ,Atletico Madrid with goals from Griezmann and the mercy shot by Riquelme to make it 4-2, totally shattered the hopes of Real Madrid. Which means that, Real Madrid is officially eliminated from the Copa del Rey.
I think what happened, is due to Real Madrid lack of resting and preparing for the players after their great win against Barcelona in Super cup Finals.

I will not underestimate Barcelona, Atletico Madrid's victory over Real Madrid in the Copa Del Rey is not a guarantee that they will be able to win the Copa Del Rey title easily, I think Barcelona still has the same percentage as Atletico Madrid to win the Copa Del Rey title this season This.

That’s true, Barcelona with Xavi are not playing with a stable pattern, we see their results with easy teams are losing while winning in strong matches, sometimes the opposite. This makes it so hard to predict their next performance and outcome.
But certainly, it’s won’t be an easy mission for Atletico Madrid even passing against Real Madrid, Barcelona will want the trophy this season as well.

Although I was also a little annoyed when Real Madrid failed to take advantage of the opportunities they had.

At the beginning of the match, Real had several very good chances to score, Bellingham was the closest to this, then 20 minutes, Oblak made an incredible save, but Atletico played this part of the match in an exemplary manner. And at the end of the first half, Rüdiger’s not very successful defensive play made it possible for Atlético to open the scoring. In the second half, Camavinge returned the favor.
The match was very difficult and it was logical that we saw extra time. And considering how active Real Madrid were in the second half, I thought that they would be able to win this match, but Grismans did something incredible. It's rare to see such a cool cup match in the 1/8 finals.

[bangjoe]

It was really a tough match between these two strong opponents, Athletico Madrid demostrated strength through out the game,showing that they can't be beaten twice by thesame club.I really love how they responded to the last beating that they had at home to Madrid.It is a thing of joy that Athletico are able to beat madrid,but I doubt if that will be possible in the Laliga, perhaps Madrid didn't take this cup more seriously,thats why they allowed Athletico to get the three points in this game.From now,I will be putting an eye on this Athletico Madrid vs Madrid,because the rivalry is now becoming interesting.

Atletico showed their class again, they forced Real Madrid to play until extra time because both teams played equally strong in normal time. Luckily, Atletico has a player like Griezmann, he managed to score a spectacular goal which put Real Madrid behind 3-2 again. The brilliant performance shown by Griezmann and other Atletico players succeeded in eliminating Real Madrid from the Copa del Rey. This victory is revenge for their defeat in the Spanish Super Cup, Atletico will compete with Barcelona, Girona, Real Sociedad, Celta Vigo, Real Mallorca, Athletic Bilbao and Sevilla in the quarter-final drawing.

I don't think it's possible for Real Madrid to consider a competition as unimportant for them because they followed it from the beginning and will not waste time until they are eliminated by Athletico Madrid, obviously it was Real Madrid's defeat for revenge in the Spanish Super Cup match.

Griezmenn was one of the keys to Athletico Madrid getting the win and eliminating Real Madrid, and now we will see them meet again in the league, and for sure Real Madrid will take revenge again to beat their rival, I am also more interested to see how Real Madrid will face their rival after being eliminated in the Copa del Rey, whether revenge will occur to show who is superior..

There is no reason for defeat, every team definitely has high targets for every competition they participate in.
I think the defeat against Athletico Madrid cannot be separated from Real Madrid's negligence in maintaining team stability and Athletico Madrid's big ambition to avenge their defeat last week, and also every Madrid Derby match has high (fierce) match tension so I think this defeat is normal Of course and Real Madrid should be able to better prepare their team for future matches for all the competitions they are still participating in.

It is very possible because the next match to continue with the La Liga match will be played at the Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid's home ground, so of course Carlo Ancelotti's team has great motivation to maintain the top position in the standings and also avenge this defeat.

[Leviathan.007]

It didnt last long because just before the half-time whistle Madrid got a goal back but i don't really know if it was Modric or Jan Oblak own goal but its 1-1 now.
This match is still pretty much the same as before IMO where for the first half they are still trying to hold each other although in the semifinal match it was actually more interesting but this time in the first half the two clubs wanted to wait for one of them to confront.

I think for the second half it will be more interesting if you look at the situation that happened in the first half they should be hotter in the second half.

The goal is an own goal awarded to Oblak and not registered a Modric goal. I thought I was the only one that has notice how cold the first half and the start of this second half is. Both teams are actually pretty putting same energy as the first half this is because they are very wary of each other and that’s why the game each is like this, other games Real Madrid usually gives the ball more to Atletico Madrid and then try to hit them on counter and this game seems like Atletico aren’t playing to that level and Madrid are actually a bit confuse.

Ahh Morata doubles it for Atletico Madrid, this press is definitely not going towards plans and I think they might lose this one and get knocked out. Real Madrid as always not taken this competition seriously even in the past but this two meeting now is just so early to me, let’s see what they play in the remain minutes

Too much errors involved in the game from both sides, Real Madrid made mistakes and same goes for Atletico Madrid,  Real Madrid player saw some of the efforts they made hit the crossbar, it was same for Rodrygo and also Vini.
Alvaro Morata scoring goals this season is fantastic. He is either in the right position or the ball gets to him. Diego Simeone happy for him yesterday.  The game to finally seal it up was scored by Greezmann.
It should definitely affect Real Madrid with how they play in the next game  they have to be tired from the super cup game played last week.

We saw an awesome performance from Diego Simeone and his players, to be honest, he proved and he got true warriors in this team. Real Madrid is a good team and they had a good performance recently it was enough to say even after the game Real Madrid had against Barcelona, they had a good atmosphere in the team to make their team easily bet Atletico Madrid while lost it with a 4-2 result and Diego Simeone beat Ancelotti in this match. This even made Ancelotti sad in the conference after the match and he said “We have quality young players who try to force things, sometimes it’s not necessary”

[ajanwalker]

Atletico Madrid took the rematch of the Super Cup Final from Real Madrid yesterday in the King's Cup match played last night.
The regular time of the match ended with a score of 2-2. In the first period of extra time, Atletico took the lead 3-2 with Griezmann. While Real Madrid was attacking for a goal in the second overtime period, they scored the 4th goal from the counter attack and the match ended 4-2.
Ancelotti, who faced Arda Güler in the previous round, did not give him a chance in this match. He never played in the Super Cup final. They may be planning to have Arda play in easy matches this year and have him play directly in the starting five next year. Because Arda has suffered many injuries from the beginning of this year until today.

[Docnaster]

This even made Ancelotti sad in the conference after the match and he said “We have quality young players who try to force things, sometimes it’s not necessary”

When it comes to mastering the playing pattern of an impressive team and finding the best way to stop them, Diego Simeone is simply one of the best managers in modern day football that can perfectly do that and I can't just help but clap in admiration for his tactical experience and approaches to important games like that of their last night game in the Spanish Copa Dey Rey round of 16 game against Real Madrid. Atletico Madrid players played in that game like their life depended on it and were rewarded with a win deep in the the extra time of the game.

For the second time this season, Atletico Madrid have faced Real Madrid at the Civitas Metropolitan stadium and Diego Simeone's men have been victorious in those two occasions.

[HajiBagi]

Oh Lord! Even though this was the match I was most looking forward to and I actually fell asleep before the match started. I woke up when in the 88th minute and the score was tied at 2-2.

I saw Carvajal and Bellingham very tired and maybe other players felt this way too. Well, with this result Real Madrid were eliminated from the Copa Del Rey and had to accept the fact that they would not win the treble this season.

It's sometimes beneficial to give the team's younger players, such as Ardar Guler, an opportunity to showcase their abilities. At the end of the game, some real Madrid players were worn out and Ancelotti did not replace them. At times, it seemed as though Ancelotti was coaching the real Madrid team without thinking. I know this sounds harsh, but if we look at the beginning of the game, the players Ancelotti should have started with are not the ones he started with. The game was supposed to begin with Tchoumeni, Modric, not Kroos and Camavinga, Camavinga. He should have substituted Camavinga and Kroos in the second half, as Ancelotti did when Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid in the Spanish Supercup. As soon as I see who will start the game, I already know that Atletico Madrid will win because some players aren't supposed to start.

Real Madrid gives it their all in every game, even if they lose and have to play extra time. This will also set an example for real Madrid and the coaches to allow those younger players to play so that the players won't be as worn out. Real Madrid also suffers from not having a player who can score goals; they have many of opportunities to score, but they are unable to take advantage of them. In contrast, Atletico Madrid has players who can score when they have the chance, and that is what wins them the game.

[Slow death]

yesterday's game that barcelona played, it was a game that although barcelona managed to score 3 goals and won the game, still in my opinion it was a game in which barcelona did very badly, that's because they were playing against an opponent from lower divisions and even so it was visible the difficulties that the Barcelona players were having on the field, reaching the opponent's point every time they got the ball, creating a lot of problems for the Barcelona player who was being booed on the field, it was visible how the coach Barcelona player was worried about that game. a team at Barcelona's level playing at maximum capacity against a team from the lower divisions and yet Barcelona suffered to win the game

honestly it was a game that shocked me, I had already been shocked by the game a few days ago that Barcelona played against an opponent from a lower division and Barcelona had difficulty winning, I thought that in yesterday's game things would be different, but Once again, Barcelona had a lot of difficulty beating a weak team in the lower divisions. With that I simply start to think that Barcelona's current level could be that of a second division team. I know people may disagree and say that Barcelona just had bad luck in the last few games. But this season I don't see Barcelona being the same team as last season. Barcelona's defense is very bad

another game that I was looking forward to the most was the Atletico Madrid game against Real Madrid. I know that Atlético Madrid has become a very strong team when they play at home and in the last few games, even though they were European competition games, Atlético Madrid didn't lose, so I already expected that their game against Real Madrid wouldn't be an easy game. , but I didn't expect Real Madrid to continue to show great fragility in the defense that they have been showing in recent games. Yesterday I even bet on Real Madrid to qualify, but on the field Atletico Madrid showed great superiority in attack and that was undeniable. I lost my bet and I must say that Atletico Madrid were a fair winner

[Blitzboy]

It was really a tough match between these two strong opponents, Athletico Madrid demostrated strength through out the game,showing that they can't be beaten twice by thesame club.I really love how they responded to the last beating that they had at home to Madrid.It is a thing of joy that Athletico are able to beat madrid,but I doubt if that will be possible in the Laliga, perhaps Madrid didn't take this cup more seriously,thats why they allowed Athletico to get the three points in this game.From now,I will be putting an eye on this Athletico Madrid vs Madrid,because the rivalry is now becoming interesting.

The Copa del Rey win over Madrid was a well-planned vengeance plot for Atlético after their Spanish Super Cup loss. Their resilience versus Madrid at the Metropolitano twice this season is remarkable. I didnt expect it, especially with Madrid in good form under Ancelotti.

As much as I respect Atlético's resilience, I question their La Liga consistency. They must show they can maintain this performance. Madrid, however, appears to be prioritizing the league. They're going for the top slot and face easier opponents. Atlético's next games are important for regaining the top four. Not sure how this will play out, but the top four dynamics will be fascinating in the following weeks.

[boltz]

Maintaining the top four ranking will means they will be able to participate in the UCL next season so it wouldn't really be a bad one for them, just that they will only go without a trophy this season and they will have to put in some effort to still maintain a spot amongst the top four els they may be displaced by other teams.

Barcelona have a little problem with their ya tactical approach to games aswell, after the first El classicilo this season which was were they started recording their series of losses, they were blaming it on the absence of few of their players who's absence was due to injury such as lewandoski but then even his return couldn't do so much for the team aswell so back to the coach he has most often refused to use more vibrant and young minds who could play and help the team get results rather he keeps the likes of yamal and Felix on the bench till second half which isn't helping them either.

In my opinion, Barcelona will be able to reach the top 4 by the end of this season. I have no doubts about Barcelona ability this season even if they fail to defend their title, but they will maintain their dignity to be able to close their position in the top 4.
Indeed, Barcelona is not too strong compared to Girona or Real Madrid this season, but as the defending champion last season, Barcelona must be able to maintain its ranking in the top 4 until the end of this season competition.

Barcelona will not experience big problems in the upcoming match because the opponents they face are teams below their ranking. Apart from that, the quality of Barcelona players is quite good this season, like Felix, of course he must be able to bring Barcelona on a winning path if he wants to stay at Barcelona. Betis is Barcelona next opponent and maybe Barcelona can beat them.

I do think the same. Barca is not having a great season but also they don't have great players as well and they should stop transfer players who are over 32 years old because Barca mentality as a club , was always to import and raise young talents so I really don't get it why they like to have "old" players in the squad right now.

Regarding placement ...I do think they will achieve top 4 as well but I won't be surprised if they miss UCL spots.

[G_Besar]

It will probably be that Barcelona and Atletico will play in the final... Although there are also Bilbao and Girona, which show good results... It seems to me that Girona is even more dangerous than Real... I think that Girona have a better chance of making it to the final than Barcelona, especially if they meet before the final...

I also think that Girona is still quite dangerous compared to other teams and because now the round of matches has not yet been determined, it would obviously be very interesting if Girona met Barcelona earlier. Because one of them will definitely meet Atletico Madrid in the final because I also think that Atletico Madrid is capable of advancing to the Copa Del Rey final this season and even has the potential to become champions in the Copa Del Rey this season.

For this match, Real Madrid can indeed provide reasons, especially physical factors. But more than that, this must be a valuable lesson for next season if you want to fight for all the titles until the end of the season. Real Madrid must be smart in rotating players, plus the players must also be evenly distributed between core and reserve players. In this match, it was clear that Ancelotti was pushing his players too hard so it was natural that they would lose.

This defeat meant that Real Madrid always conceded three goals or more when facing Atletico Madrid this season. In LaLiga, Atleti Madrid 3-1 Real Madrid, Supercopa Real Madrid 5-3 Atletico and now in the Copa del Rey Atleti Madrid 4-2 Real Madrid. And Real Madrid's two defeats at the same stadium. This indicates that Real Madrid is still lacking in terms of defense because several Real Madrid defenders are injured.

In LaLiga, Atleti Madrid have appeared inconsistent in several matches, but I am sure they can definitely improve their performance so they can return to the top four, they are currently only three points behind Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao. With the performance shown when they beat Real Madrid, Atleti Madrid's chances of being in the top four until the end of the season are still very wide open.

Nowadays, watching Atlético vs. Madrid is more interesting than Barca vs. Madrid. Real Madrid typically doesn't perform well in the Copa del Rey, so I'm not surprised, to be honest. Tough luck for Real Madrid continues. With their elimination from the Copa del Rey, they can no longer aim for trebles this season. Now, let's shift their focus to the league title and the UEFA Champions League. But from my perspective achieving success in the UCL might be challenging due to the ongoing injury problems.
