La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Docnaster]

The current condition of Barcelona is not just due to some mistakes being done this season but Barcelona was decaying from the inside for years. They were doing more politics recently and being Més que un club they forgot how to make a good football club.
Not just the barcagate, Barcelona made controversies on release of both Messi and Neymar mostly because they were struggling to finance the team as they had accumulated huge debt. They would have performed better if they had spent money on players than bribing the referees.

Barcelona performance decline and it's quite obvious, why would an elite team like Barca fight to accumulate points when there mates, Real Madrid are winning matches without stress. Xavi Hernandez have even decided to leave the club at the end of the season because he's seeing no progress at Camp Nou. Barcelona originates from the team's board, they've failed to make good impression and I've watch and observed the team from a distance, they're suffering to fit into the system and there's definitely no good extent to see them back to triumph path in football.

Xavi Hernandez was a former captain of the Barcelona team and not just that he's a former captain but also a very passionate fan of Barcelona who always wants Barcelona to succeed. Since he took over the managerial position at the club, things haven't been as they used to be at the club but he was still doing his best to make sure Barcelona remains as one of the top performers in not just Spain but in Europe. Last season, he led the club to lift the Spanish La Liga title but since the start of the season, Barcelona have been struggling to win games as a result of numerous injuries to the key players of the club as well as the club's failure to sign world class players.

His decision to leave the club at the end of the current season isn't a bad idea especially for his young managerial career

[Asiska02]

It was the worst result they could ever get against a team like Villarreal. I don't know how Villarreal could score five goals against Barcelona and how Barcelona could let this team to have this performance but the fact about Villarreal and Barcelona is about the bad performance of Xavi and his palers.
Also, after this match, Xavi said he is not going to keep working in Barcelona anymore.

This much have been a very sad decision for him to make after losing to Villarreal. Could the lost and the pain of losing made him utter those disappointing statement of leaving the club at the end of the season? This was not expected though seeing how he did well last season for the club and earned them the La Liga title. This season, I also don’t think it is time to give up on the fight for the league title so early, but let’s just respect his decision and hope that what he did was for the best interest of the team. Two coaches have announced so far that they’ll not continue with their teams by next season, it is very unusual to happen as season is still ongoing unless the management sacks them by theirselves. We will wait to see who will be the replacement for Xavi before next season begins.

hell Barcelona's match against Villarreal was more interesting in the second half than the first
Regardless of the result, I was actually very entertained by today's match because I think it was one of the most interesting matches this week.

An 8-goal drama ensued and the regrettable thing is that Barcelona were hit by a comeback in extra time in this match.
Honestly my hopes were raised especially after Barcelona turned things around when the original score of 0-2 became 3-2 for Barcelona but indeed at the crucial time it seemed like Barcelona lost concentration which actually made them chaotic and actually had problems in 10 minutes of normal time and extra time.
It's a regrettable bet but I'm happy with how many goals there were in today's game.

I was quite surprised by the number of goals in the second half, yes Barcelona had turned things around 3-2 but the through ball was quite measured and completed directly by Goncalo Guedes. This is what makes the Villareal players enthusiastic, it's true what you said 10 minutes at the end of the match makes Barcelona's defense increasingly having problems with the lack of communication between each player in guarding each line and in the 4th goal I saw the Barcelona defenders making a blunder in their defense, and in the 5th goal the Villareal players freely got a cross and no one was guarding it and the goal was scored.

Barcelona current bad streak is one of the most painful insults for Xavi because currently bad finances have caused Xavi reputation to decline, while Xavi has been trying to provide the best strategy since the start of the season and is currently experiencing bad times when players are injured and there is a lack of quality reserve players.
Xavi current thinking is that it would be better if he left Barcelona rather than risking his reputation becoming bad.

There was no better choice for him than to just resign. Xavi is influenced by the media and he expressed this shortly after losing to Villareal. There was pressure from outside that made him uncomfortable staying at Barcelona, ​​perhaps he had been treated badly all this time. In my opinion, Xavi is a great potential coach if he is supported by good finances, but unfortunately he didn't come at the right time.

Right now Xavi will only focus on the remainder of the season, including fighting in the Champions League. Barcelona has lost a lot of hope in La Liga, they also failed in the Copa Del Rey and the Spanish Super Cup, so he was tired of all this.

Well I was thinking the same thing, Xavi doesn't want to leave Barcelona as a failed coach because previously he succeeded in improving Barcelona's performance so actually he has the ability to handle this team, it's just that some internal problems can't be overcome. I agree if Xavi moves next season or sooner it was the right move to save his reputation as a new coach, and he is still continuing his career in another team, I heard one club from the Premier League is interested in him but so far it's just a rumor.  If Xavi leaves, who should replace him?

They're seeing too much of the bad performance than that of the good games truly. He must have set his own personal goals to achieve for the club this season and if he is not achieving them, he has to recheck himself and consider what's good for the club and the future if the club. Him leaving will also see some important players in the club leave and they'll start the creation of a new Barcelona with younger players

Saw Girona with that first half win and they went ahead to win the game completely. They didn't slip off after that lose to Mallorca during the Copa del Rey. Their coach is a good one to consider for who's inline for the Barcelona job.

Xavi has announced that he will leave Barcelona at the end of the season. I always prefer to blame the coaches last. Because if the team is not good, we can't expect them to do god-like things. Barcelona's squad this season is one of the worst in recent times. Xavi was limited in what he could do. However, neither Real Madrid nor Girona have great squads in the league this season. They don't have squads that are vastly superior to Barcelona. Xavi should have performed better this season.

[Velvet78]

Yeah, Xavi has officially announced his intention to leave Barcelona. It wasn't very surprising to me thinking of his threatening the players to leave before if they weren't going to improve their performances.

We must have all seen what Barcelona did against Villarreal a short time after that talk. It was just a little faster than the time I thought Xavi would decide to leave. From now on I hope Barcelona can manage to find a good manager for themselves. Xavi wasn't bad in the previous season. But things haven't gone the way he would like this season so far. As this is his personal decision I respect that.

The match between Sevilla vs Osasuna in Spanish League has already started. The game is now half-time. So far Sevilla team is leading by 1 goal. On the other hand, Osasuna team has not scored any goal. It seems that the game is going to be a tough fight between the two teams at the end.  Pabo. Osasuna team is ahead of Sevilla team in the points table. Osasuna team is trying hard to score but no goal yet. It seems that Osasuna team can do better after half time.

I think Xavi has thought about his decision well and maybe it's not just because of the defeat to Villarreal. Of course, he was furious with the current condition of his team, which seemed weak amidst the huge demands from internal and external parties, so his statement was understandable.

Basically I understand what Xavi wants for his team, but things will not improve as quickly as expected. This season many plans have not gone according to expectations, even when Xavi has great enthusiasm to start this season. To be honest, I don't want him to go as quickly as he said, but if that is the best decision then he has the right to get what he wants.

We will wait to see who will be the replacement for Xavi before next season begins.

Barcelona tends to get coaches who have a history with the club, so of course they will look for coaches who are suitable and also understand the philosophy of the game. Not sure who will replace Xavi, but I hope it's not Ronald Koeman.

Yeah, it's also been reported he won't be taking the salaries meant for the remaining years ( That's due to the contract he signed yesterday ) He's indeed a true boyhood fan of the club and has refused nothing from happening to the more after them bad team results and financial challenges.
They should kindly let player's like Frankie De Jong, Araujo, Robert Lewandoski and I doubt they'll want to extend the contract of Jaoa Felix. Cancelo I can agree to stay.
Most importantly, they need a better coach with good tactics and build to grow the club around the La Ma Sia laddies.

He did well last season, some positions left amd they didn't replace them well along with the Injury that has affected them and how they've played.

Girona and Real Madrid continue to move past each other at the top of the La Liga standings this season and the previous narrow win against Celta Vigo put Girona ahead again by 1 point. The match was very exciting and balanced, but Girona's needs began to break in the 20th minute after Portu scored a goal to give Girona the advantage in this away match. Both teams attacked each other and neither wanted to give in, but in the end this narrow lead lasted until the final minute.

In fact, Celta Vigo also put quite a lot of pressure on Girona and they recorded 10 goal attempts but they all failed. Girona has a slightly better record than Celta Vigo but cannot increase the goal difference more. Despite all that, Girona assured this victory and brought home 3 points from Celta Vigo. The competition in La Liga this season is completely limited to Girona and Real Madrid. If we look at Barcelona, which has a difference of around 10 points more than these two teams, then it is impossible for Barcelona to catch them both.

I am wonder about Sevilla because it seems that this season Sevilla is actually worse than last season, I also wonder why the presence of Ramos still doesn't make Sevilla better this season. Even in this match against Osasuna, basically Sevilla managed to play well in the first half and also won 1-0 at half time. But yes, it was a shame that Sevilla didn't play well in the second half and as such, Osasuna managed to dominate the match in the second half until finally Osasuna managed to score a goal and managed to end the match with a 1-1 draw.

If we look at Barcelona, which has a difference of around 10 points more than these two teams, then it is impossible for Barcelona to catch them both.

We see that Girona and Madrid are still very consistent with their performance, so as you said, I really agree, it is impossible for Barcelona to overtake these two teams in the future. The only best hope is to maintain its position in the top four of the standings, even though it can no longer compete for trophies in the future. It's true, the competition for the trophy only revolves around Madrid and Girona, I predict Ancelotti squad will win the trophy at the end of the season, because they are used to all the pressure before the season ends. Girona is the most serious dark horse in this season race, Michel squad deserves more attention because it has been able to beat many other La Liga contestants.

Madrid and Girona in their last match managed to get full points, both were only able to win narrowly, but that not a big problem because what important is the 3 points. However, as we can see that Barcelona is going through a bad period, it is no longer possible for Xavi squad to retain the trophy with the point difference that has been created. The financial crisis that occurred was the reason behind Barcelona decline, that's why Xavi decided to resign when the season ended, he couldn't do much to advance the club for the better.

Yep. The pressure upon Girona was real from Celta Vigo but this team knows how to win by short scores and today they did exactly that. Now , would've be crazy to see Girona becoming champions and produce a big surprise ? Personally I would love to finally see someone besides Real , Atletico and Barcelona to win LaLiga just like Leicester did in Premier League a few years ago.

Las Palma 1 - 2 Real madrid

As expected from one of the best teams in the world, Real Madrid won the game and remains in first place in the league, I have no doubt that this season we will be champions, I'm just not celebrating yet because Girona, which was supposed to be a team that stays in the positions were from European competitions, this season for some strange reason they are fighting against us in the top position and it would not be wise to celebrate knowing that Girona only has a difference of 2 points in relation to Real Madrid, we need to pray that Girona loses at less 2 games and we won 2 games so that the difference in points in 8 points of advantages we have in relation to Girona, with that we could already celebrate the title

Real Madrid have no other choice they have to win to secure their position and they will not give Girona a chance to go further, last season Real Madrid had missed the title so this season is Real Madrid turn. I didn't watch this match but I saw the statistics and Real Madrid almost made a mistake luckily Real Madrid was able to turn things around in the 65 and 83 minutes. Basically, overall Real Madrid game was less impressive and concede more often, maybe they sometimes underestimate their opponents.

Exactly real madrid need to continue performing well so that they will get the trophy these season, Ancelotti believe he will win the laliga title this time Barcelona have already giving up because they lose against Villarreal and they believe they can compete with Girona and Real Madrid in the league table again. Girona are still playing well they don't want to lose match Celta Vigo play well but Girona have the chance to score one goal and the game end like that If Real Madrid had not defeated Palmas yesterday, Girona would have had a chance to top the league table, and he can make Madrid lose the title if they make mistakes and allow Girona to top the table, because the league is coming to an end, and Girona is in great form and I believe they will continue to do well and compete with other clubs in the league.

The pressure was real from Celta Vigo, yes, but bottom line Girona was the stronger team in this game. I think the result is the correct outcome and it wasn't some last second lucky shot from Girona, but an early goal that they defended well while staying dangerous in front of Celta Vigo's goal.

It is good to see Girona keeping up the pressure for Real Madrid and now Girona has two extremely difficult games ahead of them. The first one is a home game against Champions League team Real Sociedad, which I think they have a very good chance to win. And then comes the showdown between Real Madrid and Girona in the Bernabeu stadium. I am looking forward to that one and even though I am not against Real Madrid per se, in this particular case I support Girona.

He did well last season, some positions left amd they didn't replace them well along with the Injury that has affected them and how they've played.

I don't know what happened recently in football where in the Premier League Kloop announced he would step down from Liverpool coaching chair at the end of this season. In Laliga, Xavi also did the same thing where he will step down after this season ends. For Xavi, he made the decision at a time when the team situation was not really improving, where recently their performance in Laliga was less than satisfactory and previously they failed to win the Spanish Super Cup trophy after being beaten by Real Madrid. And Barcelona also lost their hopes in the Copa Del Rey and their performance this season has really dropped drastically.

With Xavi resignation, of course there is a strong assumption that Barcelona will have any difficulties until the end of this season. They are very depressed in the standings after losing to Villarreal and it is possible that this season is the downfall of their might from last season. Yes, that's for sure because currently Barcelona is starting to have difficulty winning matches in Laliga.

[bitpotter]

Oh Sevilla, you still haven't won this week and a 1-1 draw against Osasuna is certainly not a good result for a team that has suffered a losing streak in the last 4 matches in La Liga. The last victory that Sevilla experienced was against Granada and that was about a month ago. What will happen to Sevilla this season if they continue with a series of less than optimal results and is it possible that they will be relegated this season?
