La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[len01]

Girona, which was initially the favorite to win the Copa Del Rey trophy, was eliminated first in the quarter-finals, even though Girona biggest rival this season was Real Madrid and this club was eliminated first. So Girona has the opportunity to win the trophy, but unfortunately it didn't go according to plan expectations, Girona and Barcelona failed to wins the trophy and fell with Girona in the quarter-finals. Tomorrow we just have to see Atletico Madrid compete with Sevilla I hope that this big club is not eliminated like its arch rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid because this is the only trophy that Ateltico Madrid can winnings.

I just laughed a little remembering someone very confidently saying that Girona or Barcelona would win the Copa Del Rey title after Real Madrid were eliminated but in fact all of that was ruined by the surprise that happened.

It was unexpected to see these two popular teams lose in yesterday's match, even though the opponents they faced could actually have been defeated, but who knows what the goals of these two teams were, there must have been something that pushed them not to compete optimally.
we can see Girona performance against Mallorca in the 60+ minute. Raillo Arenas got a red card and he is Mallorca defender and this means that in the 60+ minute is Girona opportunity to score more to beat Mallorca and move on to the next round. but the fact is that after the Mallorca player received a red card, Girona was unable to break into Mallorca goal and was only able to score 2 scores.
and Barcelona, I understand the situation because it was the lack of players that caused Barcelona to not be able to survive for long because in extra time Barcelona conceded 2 scores while Barcelona reserve players were not able to compete strongly and I saw that Barcelona looked very tired.
but I really like seeing Lamine Yamal performance as a young player who has tried to give a really great performance.

Girona has been impressive this season, as I've followed them. However, Girona's chances of winning La Liga are slim given Real Madrid and Barcelona's strength and history. They shouldnt be written off yet. They've shown play that might land them a top ranking or the title.

Barcelona doesn't have a chance on the league champion this season because they have the worst performance and secondly the only club that will possibly make Girona not to become the champion of this league is real Madrid because they have very strong and capable players that's more experience than Girona.

If FC Barcelona can win their outstanding match, they will be five points behind Girona, who are leading the table in La Liga. And there are still a lot of matches to be played in La Liga that will decide which club will win the La Liga trophy, which will allow Barcelona to close the gap between them and Girona if they keep up winning their matches.

To this point, Barcelona have shown alot of consistency in their matches and just like the last season their will definitely break records in this season, because with the current standings and games recorded it shows that the next couple of gamesay be a good walk through for the club and if everything being Equal, we are going to see more winngs for club in the next couple of matches, this can easily be traced and tracked with the kind of teams that are lining up against the club.

When it comes to consistency, Barcelona have become more consistent lately and this is going to lead to them breaking the record that they failed to break innlast season laliga.

Unfortunately Barcelona is no longer the best club we use to know because there performance is getting worster every season and this season has been one of there worst season so far considering there poor performance, and with the way things are currently moving for them I doubt if they can be able to improve there performance on there next season

Poor performance was recorded, and if they want to win matches, they should enhance their stands. The performance of an elite team is determined by its players; if a player is not in good shape, the team's performance declines. Xavi Hernandez is confronting paramount challenges; he should handle them with good intentions because there is no time on their end. Barcelona is not in the same form as the previous season; a lot has changed, and they are suffering as a result of the new top challengers which the board have failed to noticed and solved.

Barcelona haven't been successful after Messi and it doesn't look like they will be. Barcelona need to find a revolutionary coach like Guardiola and put him in charge of the team. Barca can't be the space team they used to be for a long time because they can't produce players from the youth system and because they make ridiculous transfers.
Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol, Pique. Barcelona have almost no players similar to these names in the team. Yes, even Lewandowski is not a player like those names in this team, unfortunately. Watching today's Barcelona team after watching space football with Messi is like having a tasteless dinner. I also enjoyed following Barcelona before Messi. Before Messi, we watched players like El Fenomeno, Ronaldinho, Henry, Eto'o, Deco, Figo, Rivaldo, Koeman, Glves, Suarez. Messi time was already the peak years. After Messi, the team is officially suffering.

[beerlover]

Barcelona concede a lot, we can't disagree, yesterday they conceded 4 from Bilbao, before that Barcelona conceded 4 from Real Madrid and Girona. I don't remember a period when Barcelona conceded 4 goals so often.

In general, we can see that Xavi has major problems, and given that La Laga is likely to be won by Real this year, it is unclear what trophy Barcelona will be able to take this year, except the cup.

Barcelona performance this season has decreased greatly compared to last season. Barcelona this season has conceded a lot of goals very easily. A situation like this is a tough job for Xavi to improve the team in the race for the La Liga title and UEFA Champions League this season. Moreover, in the League, Barcelona is far behind Real Madrid in the standings. If Xavi cannot improve Barcelona performance, then it is very likely that Barcelona will not only fail to win this season, but Xavi position as coach is at risk of being fired.

I wouldn't say "greatly", I think they are worse that's true, but I think they are also trying something new. The amount of games they had with players under 20 years old is greater this season compared to last season as well. Meaning, they are trying to get their own talent instead of looking for it outside, and spending much less money this way.

And I agree, this came with a lot of trouble, but these kids need to grow up and learn, they can't just start being awesome on the first day, not everyone is like Messi. So, given enough time, I think Barcelona will not only spend less, but they will be a better team as well. They just need some time, and they do not have that at the moment but they are trying their very best to do it.

If FC Barcelona can win their outstanding match, they will be five points behind Girona, who are leading the table in La Liga. And there are still a lot of matches to be played in La Liga that will decide which club will win the La Liga trophy, which will allow Barcelona to close the gap between them and Girona if they keep up winning their matches.

With their current declined in performance, it will be impossible for them to finish top 4 on the table if they continue in the form. This is because the more they are losing, some other clubs will come and over take them and it is also giving advantage for the clubs that are ahead of them to stay ahead of them. It was a mess to see how Barca has become so weak that they have being conceding excess goals this season by clubs that are smaller than them. Attention needs to be given to that club fast before things gets out of Xavi hands because I am not seeing any improvement. If they need to buy more players during the transfer window, let it be done fast

Here I am not agreed about this argument that Barcelona will face problems for staying into top four because most chances they will be stayed at the third spot because things are not bad as few are thinking about this all they are capable of having better results in this season even they are facing some problems due to their finances but on ground they are still having good players which can bring them to the good spot with their quality and consistency.

Xavi is also currently the right man for this job because he understands how to manage things and have better results from these limited sources and few players are having problems, but things can take positive change, and they can do good at coming matches.

In essence, this season there is no chance for Barcelona to win titles in all competitions even though indeed, at this moment Barcelona is still in third place in the La Liga standings . But yes,still, the fact is that Barcelona is a team that cannot be consistent this season even though yes, basically Barcelona also still has good players in its main squad. But indeed, it seems that this season the Barcelona squad has also experienced a decline in performance and thus, it is difficult for them to get stable results in each of these matches and it is a difficult problem to overcome quickly for Barcelona this season.

[ShowOff]

This was absolutely trash performance from Barcelona. And this was the quarter final of Copa del Rey. Barcelona was not able to defend worth anything. The performance that they have shown in this match was absolutely unacceptable. I do not want to think that Barcelona has dropped their performance in such a word that they might not be able to actually defend the La Liga title successfully. But these kinds of performances from Barcelona make me doubt them. I know this was not a La Liga match. But they have been just where to inconsistent all across the board. I do not trust Barcelona at this moment.

It's a very natural thing, if you say something like that.  Even if we refer to H2H meetings between these two teams in the Copa del Rey competition, Barcelona has suffered two defeats at the hands of Bilbao. in fact, if I refer to match statistics, Barcelona played quite well.  despite the fact that Hector Fort, as Balde's replacement due to a suspected injury, played underperformed. Likewise with Pau Cubarsi, who replaced Christensen in the 70th minute. he didn't play bad, but he didn't play well either. apart from that, in this match Ferran Torres could barely move like when Barcelona played Betis in the previous match in La Liga. for other Barcelona players, their performance was less than optimal although not too bad, only De Jong and Lewandowski played quite consistently in 90 minutes of normal time. as for Lamine Yamal, his talent and potential are starting to really develop. Raphina's absence gave him playing minutes and showed the skills he had. Maybe if Xavi had withdrawn Ferran Torres, instead of Lewandiwski being replaced by Joao Felix, the situation and results could have been different. but what is certain is that it will be up to Xavi to decide because he is in charge of Barcelona.

When we really blame Barcelona for the defeat in the 120 minute drama, then we automatically ignore how well Bilbao anticipated Barcelona's game. Bilbao played defensively using counter attacks, this is what made it very difficult for Barcelona to win the match, which also caused Barcelona to concede 2 goals in normal time.

Barcelona failed to find more shooting space than Bilbao, but Barcelona was quite effective in building attacks. Lamine Yamal and Lewandowski scored 1 goal each, but I really regret that Lamine Yamal really wasted a goal opportunity to win the match. I don't blame Xavi for this defeat, but maybe you are right that Ferran Torres should be replaced by Joao Felix instead of Lewandowski. Raphinha, Joao Cancelo and Ter Steigen's injuries meant Barcelona failed to qualify for the semi-finals, but Barcelona tried and I respect that.

Talking about Bilbao, Barcelona dominates ball possession with 61%. But in terms of opportunities, Bilbao has more opportunities. Previously, I said that Barcelona's defense was really problematic. Moreover, several injured players such as Cancelo, Alonso and other experienced substitutes. so, Xavi doesn't have many options to play with several young players. as a result, Barcelona's defense was not very good. IMO, based on my point of view, if the goalkeeper was Ter Stegen, the situation that Inaki Pena faced when conceding the goal, could probably have been blocked if the main goalkeeper had not been injured. well, what can I say, the fact is that Barcelona was eliminated even though they had worked hard in that match. I can only hope that in La Liga Barcelona will perform better than usual. and hopefully, Ter Stegen will make progress in recovering from his injury.

You are right, Xavi is really having trouble finding replacement players for his best squad. The storm of injuries his squad has endured has seen them suffer so far, while several other players appear to be lacking in consistent performance. I admit Lamine Yamal has improved, but he needs to be able to improve his finishing especially when he has good chances one vs one with the goalkeeper.

Too much pressure on Xavi Hernandez and he knows he has to win to remain at the top of the league top four clubs shooting for the Champions League football next season.
They've done well though if not for the lose against Real Madrid and also yesterday night. The La Liga fixtures are important and they have taken em seriously.

Xavi Hernandez already knows he'll have to leave or to be sacked if him and his staffs cannot work hard and smart to finish in a competitive position at the end of the season.
Barcelona anyways needs a new defensive midfielder and it's been a position affecting them game after game.

[SOKO-DEKE]

Girona, the strongest team in Laliga at the moment, has to bear the shame because in the Copa del Rey when playing against Mallorca, Girona suffered defeat, it seems that in this match Girona must bear the shame. Sometimes I also don't understand Girona's strength, why they had to lose against a team whose ranking is currently much different from Girona's in Laliga.

Honestly it was a big shame to Girona because nobody expected the match to end that way, actually it was really sad watching the strongest team on the Spanish La Liga playing the way they did on that match, considering the performance of Girona on this season I was very confident that they will surely win Mallorca because we all no that Mallorca is not in a good form this season that's why they are currently on the position they are now, however I was surprised seeing how Girona was struggling on that match and Mallorca did not give them any breathing space by blocking all the key sides of Girona and after then Mallorca utilized the opportunity and score Girona 3-0 on the first half and if not for the red card that was issued to Mallorca player there is no way Girona would have scored any goals.

We are putting more expectations on Girona, and that is why many people see it as shock when Mallorca defeated Girona yesterday. I also expected Girona to win the game, but I did not have high expectations for them to win the game because it was another competition, assuming it was a La Liga competition. Now I will say I was much disappointed because the effort they are putting in may not be worth losing to a weak team. In fact, football is full of surprises. We have many times when weak teams have always defeated the strong team at the moment, so I was not that surprised yesterday.sofar Girona is still performing well laliga I see nothing bad in giving up in Copa del Rey and to focus more on laliga competition.

As you said, football is full of surprises. As a result, two teams were favorites and they were both eliminated, two surprising results. I think many people were wrong in their predictions in these matches. Mallarca has worn out Girona with the goals scored consecutively. Maybe there has not been another team that has been able to do this this season.

Girona seems to be a bit shaky, but I think they will recover, it seems difficult for them to experience a complete decline. At least now they can focus better on the league and use the opportunity to cover their shortcomings and see.

but what is happening to Xavi Barcelona? I havent been following La Liga for a while due to lack of time
I come back and find a totally new and unexpected situation
I am afraid that if this trend continues, after all the money spent, Xavi might be fired because no result isnt good (in this season)

[rendravolt]

Last night was definitely a nightmare for Barcelona because they had to be eliminated in the last 16 of the Copa Del Rey after losing to Bilbao in extra time. This match was very fierce and Bilbao was not afraid in the slightest even though the opponent was Barcelona. In fact, a quick goal in the 1st minute managed to put Bilbao through Barcelona's goal and they were ahead for quite a long time. The attacks from both teams never stopped until Barcelona finally managed to reverse it with two goals before halftime. In the second half, Bilbao immediately launched their attack again and finally produced results by scoring the equalizer. Until the final minute the score did not change and the tie remained so it continued into extra time to determine the winner. In the end, Barcelona conceded 2 more goals which made the score end at 4-2 in favor of Bilbao.




According to OptaJose, Barcelona conceded 29 shots in this match, making it the most since the last time in the 2013/2014 season and of course this is no achievement. This is a bad record for the Blaugrana and far from expectations if they are one of the clubs that have conceded the most goals this season.

Marc-André ter Stegen's injury is the reason why Barcelona's defense is not as solid as last season. Then, several Barcelona defenders also suffered injuries, including Alejandro Balde, who had to be replaced by Héctor Fort in that match. Of course it was surprising, but Barcelona should have emerged victorious had Lamine Yamal not wasted two big opportunities towards the end of the match in normal times.

Basically, it was not only Barcelona who failed to advance to the next round of the Copa Del Rey. Real Madrid and Girona had previously failed against Atletico Madrid and Mallorca, then Barcelona was another top team that failed to qualify for the semi-finals. So far Real Sociedad, Athletic Bilbao and Mallorca have qualified, while waiting for one of the other teams, Sevilla and Atletico Madrid, who will play today.

Maybe if we talk about the role of a goalkeeper, Ter Stegen is the best that Barcelona has, but we also have to remember that Barcelona's defense has recently often caused problems which have resulted in opponents freely shooting towards the goal. I think here the goalkeeper is not the only cause of Barcelona's defense crisis and initially it was caused by their defenders not being strong enough in defending the defense.

Indeed, the result was unexpected and initially I quite favored Barcelona, Girona, Real Madrid and Atletico who would be in the semifinals but unfortunately now Atletico is the only team that has a big chance of winning the Copa Del Rey this season. The Wanda Metropolitano squad is the strongest of the several teams that have qualified and of course they have to prove this by beating Sevilla in today's match.

[Ryu_Ar1]

The score was already visible and Girona had to be satisfied with their situation which had to lose narrowly to Mallorca in this match but this could also be a blessing for them because with defeat now they are more able to focus on La Liga alone without looking at other competitions.
Girona journey in the Copa del Rey competition has stopped now.

Girona's attack was the same as always but Mallorca in this match played very well and that was a problem for Girona because they could not move when almost all Mallorca players were in their defensive area so it must be very difficult to penetrate and the mistake for Girona in this match was that they did not think too much about Mallorca's counterattacks which in the end made them inconvenience themselves and 3 goals in the first half was a complicated situation because they could not anticipate it.
But I agree with what you're saying because losing this quarter-final will allow them to focus more on La Liga but it's a shame because given the performance they could have maximised their advantage.

It remains to be seen which of Barcelona and Bilbao will join Sociedad and Mallorca in the semi-finals.

Well it looks like Girona don't really suit opponents who apply defensive schemes and they are better at facing clubs with direct attacks so they can find gaps there but when they face more defensive opponents they always struggle because they only play passive attacking but the opponent is better in defense and takes advantage of the momentum to counterattack and that's a pretty effective way to fight Girona to date because this incident is not just once but previously when facing Almeria in La Liga it was also like that.

For Barcelona they must also be equally eliminated now in the Copa Del Rey quarter-finals To be honest I am a Madrid fan and seeing them lose before and Barcelona qualify I feel a little upset but in yesterday's match Barcelona failed I don't want to be happy over Barcelona's defeat it's just that it feels even for me lol

Now it only remains to see Atletico's last match in the Copa del Rey whether they will surprisingly also lose in the match later or instead they will bulldoze Sevilla easily. I expect an interesting match here although the possibility is a little difficult to happen if you look at Sevilla's current situation which is chaotic.

[QueenVera]

It seems that Girona is following Madrid who also failed in the Copa Del Rey, but I think maybe this failure is a slap in the face for Girona that lower level clubs can always give surprises at any time, Girona has played very optimally, it's just that luck is not on Girona's side, but behind this failure it makes Girona can focus more on Laliga where this title may be more valuable than the Copa Del Rey, Mallorca played so well that playing with 10 players they didn't give Girona the opportunity to equalize the score until the match was over.

In the end, Girona will be more focused on competing with Madrid in Laliga, which of course they probably hope for compared to the Copa Del Rey. They have to accept the defeat against Mallorca and must be able to focus more in the next match. Against Celta Vigo as a guest, it is clear that Girona must be able to win three points. full to maintain their position at the top of the standings because if they fail to achieve this it will give Madrid the opportunity to overtake them at the top of the standings, hopefully Girona will remain consistent even if they fail in the Copa Del Rey.

Girona has been doing really well in the soccer season, surprising everyone with their great performance. Even though Girona even Girona is playing perfectly, I expected Girona to win when they faced Mallorca because they are not in a total good shape, especially since the match was a Copa del Rey game. The most surprising part for me was that Mallorca actually won with a little goal margin even after giving enough goal gaps from the beginning.

 But in my opinion it still won't be that easy because to become a leader in La Liga you have to have deeper experience. even competing with popular teams in La Liga is not an easy task because popular teams have more experience with various strategies to be able to regain their position first. but I really hope there is something different this season Girona must become the leader in La Liga to see new history without the boredom of seeing every season led by a team that always dominates La Liga. Madrid for sure won't make it so easy for them and so let's anticipate how the remaining weeks of the season would turn out.

[$crypto$]

Surprisingly the big LaLiga teams have failed in the Copa Del Rey - Girona, Real Madrid and Barcelona, now it's down to Atletico Madrid against Sevilla will they fall or win?

No matter how we look at the stats on the teams but when the teams are bet at more reasonable odds but not the big expectations all the big teams fall and it's a bit disappointing to have to take a small loss on that bet, I think Madrid will win that's a NO, including Girona who dominated the game in LaLiga but in the Copa Del Rey they couldn't, a bit unlucky to bet on this competition.

Atletico Madrid vs Sevilla at odds @1.42 is still a decent bet hopefully it doesn't lose again.

If seen as a whole, the Barcelona players are very sad because they are like pregnant women, unable to run, especially the defenders. It was embarrassing the number of times Barcelona conceded in the first few seconds. Who is wrong? Coach or player? Of course coach, in the last few matches they have conceded a lot with an average of 4 goals.

For me Xavi has done a good job, but that's enough for this season. Next season, club management will have to fire him, even though Barcelona managed to get past Napoli in the UCL League. However, this season the results and style of play are still very bad at every level. Xavi is unable to take Barcelona to the next level and it doesn't matter what players are brought in. I say he has to leave at the end of this season.

Bilbao played defensively using counter attacks, this is what made it very difficult for Barcelona to win the match, which also caused Barcelona to concede 2 goals in normal time.

-snip-

Due to the bad results that have occurred at Barcelona in a row this season, perhaps the future at Barcelona will be in question.
Bilbao's greatness lies in their ability to read the strategy that Xavi implemented for Barcelona. Bilbao allowed Barcelona to control possession of the ball so that Barcelona managed to take 11 total shots during the match.

Athletic Bilbao played an attacking strategy at the start of the match after which their focus was on defending and letting Barcelona take the lead in Barcelona's possession. Bilbao changed their strategy in the second half by focusing on defending and taking advantage of counter-attacks when there was open space to score.
Barcelona's weakness lies in their lack of focus in defense. When Bilbao counterattacked, the Barcelona players were not ready to stop Bilbao's attack.

[Adams0001]

Unfortunately Barcelona is no longer the best club we use to know because there performance is getting worster every season and this season has been one of there worst season so far considering there poor performance, and with the way things are currently moving for them I doubt if they can be able to improve there performance on there next season

Poor performance was recorded, and if they want to win matches, they should enhance their stands. The performance of an elite team is determined by its players; if a player is not in good shape, the team's performance declines. Xavi Hernandez is confronting paramount challenges; he should handle them with good intentions because there is no time on their end. Barcelona is not in the same form as the previous season; a lot has changed, and they are suffering as a result of the new top challengers which the board have failed to noticed and solved.

Barcelona shocked me. I didn't believe Athletic Club would defeat them in the Copa Dary because that is the only cup I see Xavi winning, but they failed. I don't think Xavi will succeed this season because of their bad performance. why can you be playing possession ball and you can win matches, because any much Barcelona play, you will see they play the opponent but will never win expect they draw or lose, I will like they should just sack Xavi at the end of the season, because I don't think he can do anything else, he lost the Spanish Cup, Copa del Rey, and I am very sure he will still lose the La Liga trophy and the Champions League, they will end the season without any trophy Because I don't think they can compete with Madrid and Girona in the laliga title and the Champions League, I believe it will be extremely tough for them to upset Napoli in the round of 16 and advance to the quarterfinals. Xavi has no excuse for not performing properly, and the team needs to find a new management.

[Dzwaafu11]

Girona, the strongest team in Laliga at the moment, has to bear the shame because in the Copa del Rey when playing against Mallorca, Girona suffered defeat, it seems that in this match Girona must bear the shame. Sometimes I also don't understand Girona's strength, why they had to lose against a team whose ranking is currently much different from Girona's in Laliga.

Honestly it was a big shame to Girona because nobody expected the match to end that way, actually it was really sad watching the strongest team on the Spanish La Liga playing the way they did on that match, considering the performance of Girona on this season I was very confident that they will surely win Mallorca because we all no that Mallorca is not in a good form this season that's why they are currently on the position they are now, however I was surprised seeing how Girona was struggling on that match and Mallorca did not give them any breathing space by blocking all the key sides of Girona and after then Mallorca utilized the opportunity and score Girona 3-0 on the first half and if not for the red card that was issued to Mallorca player there is no way Girona would have scored any goals.

I cannot say the defeat of yesterday was a disappointment because that is not La Liga and Girona cannot perform well in all their competitions. Remember that a team performing very well in La Liga isn't necessary or compulsory; they should do the same thing in another competition, and that is why many people feel disappointed that Girona lost yesterday, but honestly, for me, I didn’t expect high expectations from them in that match because that is not La Liga, so you all put much expectation on them, and many people think that since they are already in a better position in La Liga, that is how it will go for them anywhere they go, which is not possible.

Know that there will be other clubs that are going to take over the first position in another place, so therefore, Mallorca defeating Girona is not surprising to me, and again, even if Girona are doing well, sometimes the game may not be by their side, so the luck was not for them in that match, and that’s why Mallorca beat them. Although we know that Mallorca are not in good form, But sometimes a team you underestimate performs well in a match we didn’t expect and even a club we didn’t expect, so I think that is what with Girona.

I say he has to leave at the end of this season.

This judgment you just passed on xavi isn't fair at all because he's tried for Barcelona but then it's in the tradition of football fans to always first point fingers at the coach whenever there's a problem with the performance of the team and I'm not surprised seeing it like that now because I'm already used to this norm.

Considering everything at Barcelona you will agree that xavi has tried his best too although he's got his own flaw which of course no one is left flawless but his performance at the beginning of the season was such that almost everyone commended at that the but in recent tims he's got some challenges around a few players which is causing him some weakness on the side of his team but then I'm all, recently he's been conceding a lot of goals but has not failed to deliver victory to the team so I think if they are getting wins then they are making progress and should be given some more time maybe he could improve better with what he's got on ground since the financial strength of the team won't allow him go buy players to strengthen the team.
