La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Pesona1]

Barcelona must have qualified for the UCL next season to get additional money from play in the UCL. This will be helping financial of barcelona even though it will not be giving a huge impact.

It's not enough to cover Barcelona's finances and the money they get isn't much, if you want to get more money, at least Barcelona has to be in the Champions League Final or win the Champions League, maybe you can get relief from sponsorship income and broadcasting rights, if you only expect the income to be I think participants alone can't cover the financial problems in Barcelona, one way to sell the star players that Barcelona currently has and rely on their new players for a while even though the expectations are not necessarily good is also to rely on young players, but there's no harm if Barcelona wants to try it...

Barcelona current finances will be very difficult to repair even if they have to sell some of their star players, currently Barcelona has a lot of debt which will be very difficult to pay so it will probably take several more seasons to pay it off, because it is even reported that Barcelona will have to eliminate lunch together only to save money and the academy players are allowed to go home to eat and thats something we have never seen happen to a team as big as Barcelona so far, Just imagine how serious the financial crisis is in Barcelona when they have to save money on food? and maybe even the prize of winning the Champions League might not be possible to cover their problems, the only way that might be able to overcome all these problems is by transferring ownership and also the entry of large investors who may come from the Middle East.

I also heard that one of the reasons Xavi left was because of the defeat against Villarreal, obviously it is very embarrassing when playing at home against a weak team but the fact is that Barcelona was defeated, we know that defeat is normal but this time it cannot be tolerated and will be ridiculed by the fans. Currently Barcelona has many weaknesses, for example in defense and attack both sides have looked weaker this season. who will replace Xavi next? I haven't heard any rumors about this, or maybe Thomas Tuchel?

Yeah, several sources say Thomas Tuchel is interested in taking over but so far there has been no official response from Barcelona management. Personally, I think Thomas Tuchel has a great opportunity to handle Barcelona he is reliable and has experience managing great teams but the problem is whether Barcelona will provide the option to bring in new players? because in my opinion without new players it will be difficult for Tuchel to improve Barcelona's performance.

I think he will be a good news for Barcelona if Tuchel agrees to come to Barcelona because I am very sure he will do everything possible to keep the club performing well. You are right that Barcelona need to bring new players to the club before Tuchel can perform well in the team, because when Tuchel is coaching Chelsea, he knows how to get better players that can perform great in the team and win the title because when Chelsea face Real Madrid the last three seasons and defeat real madrid I am confident that Bayrn Munich will do well there and win the Champions League because Tuchel will not like to lose the trophy this time i wish they will meet with Manchester City in the quarter finals after the round 16.

Competition at the top to get into the top 4 is quite fierce at the moment, Barcelona, Atletico and Bilbao do not have a big gap in points, making it possible for shifts to occur every week.

Yeah, the title is now between Girona and Real Madrid, making it a two horse race. So two positions are left to complete the top four places, and it is going to be a battle from now until the end of the season. I think Barcelona would surely get a spot in the top four, they are not playing at their best, but they are better than the other teams below them, the final spot would be contended by Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao, whichever of them is most consistent would complete the top four and play in next season's champions league.

Exactly Girona or Real Madrid are the favorites to win the league title, because is only them that are in good form in the league but Real Madrid are the best to win the league because madrid are more stronger than Girona and I believe Ancelotti will win the trophy, if Barcelona just make mistakes and make osasuna defeat them today, I think Barcelona will probably drop down in the table and Athletic Club will top them, and it will be very difficult for them to end in the top four and xavi will be disgrace with the fans, because how a big club like Barcelona did not qualify to the Champions league next season.

Ideally Barcelona deserves to win because this match will definitely be quite a gamble not only to save Barcelona from their position but also with the difference in their respective strengths. However this is where the interesting thing is even though Osasuna is only a mediocre team that is not favored at all by anyone even in taking betting risks there will be many who avoid it. My hope is of course to see Osasuna perform optimally and really be able to provide a solid game so that Barcelona must focus more on playing and not take Osasuna lightly. Even against weak clubs sometimes it backfires for Barcelona, such as when against Villareal the score was 3-5, a very embarrassing result.

I don't see Xavi underestimating any team he will play against, even if he makes some rotations for the good of the team. The game against Villarreal was a big mistake, it was truly embarrassing and they must not repeat the same mistake.

On average, weak teams know how to complicate Barcelona's winning plans, but not always weak teams can prevent Barcelona from winning. Villareal was indeed lucky with an additional 2 goals in extra time, but this happened because Barcelona was too concentrated on attacking and failed to keep their defense safe. Ter Stegen is still injured, this means Xavi has to play Inaki Pena again in this 20th jornada.

[X-ray]

Looking at the betting odds given by the bookies for Barcelona, this should be a convincing win, especially as they get home advantage in today's match against Osasuna. There is no reason for Xavi's squad to lose again in this match, especially last week when they were humiliated by Villarreal at Camp Nou. Meanwhile, Osasuna, who is still in 12th position, has yet to win again after being held to a draw by Sevilla the previous week.

It's hard to tell whether barcelona will able to win against osassuna easily. Im not fully trusting this club after it was bottling the previous games. It's likely barcelona will face another difficult situation caused by the club will be struggling to beat osasuna. Osassuna is weak this season but barcelona is also declining a lot.
This makes the club will hard to win against osassuna and im only thinking the possible choices for this match. It must be over barcelona win, over 2,5 or btts. Barcelona can win the game but the current situation of club is making it every risky to pick it.
I will pick double chance for this caused by the fact that if we really need to get a safe bet to make sure our bet will not be collapsed. Probably barcelona win or btts. Over 2,5 is unlikely to happen.

So, this match will be an arena for fighting for points, especially for Barcelona who have not been very consistent lately and they have still not been able to recover after the two previous defeats. The challenge for Xavi must be proven through this match and if they still want to stay in the top 4 then they must win decisively and previous defensive problems must also be corrected so that they don't concede easily. Will you bet on this match and will you maybe bet on Barcelona winning?

The odds is not worth with the risk and i think that i will be looknig for less risky option to bet on this match. Barcelona is theorically having better squad to win the game but since it was not in a good shape and it makes me feel doubt about that.
Barcelona must take the necessary steps to ensure that every aspect of the club is in perfect working order. Xavi needs also to deliver three points from this match or the fans will blame him again.

He needs to remember that if osassuna sometimes became quite strong once it was facing the big club.

[Jody.Drummer]

After suffering a painful defeat the previous week when they were defeated by Villarreal with a score of 3-5, this week Barcelona will host Osasuna who is ranked 12th in the temporary standings. Statistically Osasuna is no better than Barcelona, but I have deep concerns about them, especially in defence. This season, this point still has many weaknesses which in the end can be exploited by opponents to beat them. Last week's defeat will definitely be a heavy pressure for them, which is precisely the pressure that will probably make it difficult for them to give their best in this match.
Osasuna must have made a strategy based on Barcelona's weaknesses this season, if they succeed in implementing that strategy I won't be surprised when Barcelona loses again in this match.

If Barcelona can build a team with more patience then ya, this way at least gives Barcelona a chance to recover financially. Because after all,if Barcelona wants success quickly while the team's situation is not good then ya, Barcelona will need a lot of funds to build its best team . Therefore, I think it is difficult to overcome Barcelona's current problems because ya, at the same time Barcelona always has big ambitions to get trophies and because of that, the purchase of expensive players will continue to happen and that will make it difficult for Barcelona's finances to improve.

Barcelona vs Osasuna

Today have La Liga postponed match for matchday 20 between Barcelona vs Osasuna, looking current standings position from Osasuna can't guarantee  Barcelona will easily for winning in this match. Learned from last match, Barcelona losses from Villareal have lower position standings than Osasuna. In last two matches before, Osasuna won 1 match against Getafe and last week match draw from Sevilla. I think is very good capital for Osasuna get one or three points against Barcelona have two losses in last two matches.

On average, weak teams know how to complicate Barcelona's winning plans, but not always weak teams can prevent Barcelona from winning. Villareal was indeed lucky with an additional 2 goals in extra time, but this happened because Barcelona was too concentrated on attacking and failed to keep their defense safe. Ter Stegen is still injured, this means Xavi has to play Inaki Pena again in this 20th jornada.

Its not matter with weakness team or not because Barcelona have poor performance in last several matches before, difficult made clean sheet and Barcelona goals keeper Inaki have conceded many goals since replacing Ster Teegan position after injuring. I think Xavi Hernandez have put in the bench awhile for Inaki and give chance to youth goal keeper Ander Astralaga.

Barcelona has been in financial crisis for several seasons and due to financial crisis they have sold several players including Messi, although after Messi left the club, Barcelona tried to bring some quality star players to their club. 
If a club has financial problems then it is normal to have a bad influence on that club. 

Now the type of players that Barcelona need and the type of players that they need to compete with other teams, but due to the financial crisis, Barcelona are not able to get the kind of players in their team.
Barcelona's finances were so bad at one point that they rented out their studio just to get some extra cash. This was not the case with Barcelona in the past, Barcelona was once a very strong club financially but for some reason their financial situation deteriorated so much. Barcelona must figure out how to solve their financial problems and recruit quality players to get their team back on track.

Barcelona vs Osasuna

Today have La Liga postponed match for matchday 20 between Barcelona vs Osasuna, looking current standings position from Osasuna can't guarantee  Barcelona will easily for winning in this match. Learned from last match, Barcelona losses from Villareal have lower position standings than Osasuna. In last two matches before, Osasuna won 1 match against Getafe and last week match draw from Sevilla. I think is very good capital for Osasuna get one or three points against Barcelona have two losses in last two matches.

Barcelona won their last match against Osasuna in the semi-finals of the Spanish Super Cup, that is also something to consider before you predict the result of this match. Barcelona will most likely not repeat the same mistakes in this match, especially when they have to recover after two consecutive defeats in two different competitions.

I won't say Barcelona can win this match without any problems, but Barcelona's chances of winning are certainly better. Playing at home is an advantage that Barcelona needs to exploit, so I don't think Barcelona will ruin their good record against Osasuna today. So far Barcelona have won 5 games in a row against Osasuna, so I don't expect that record to be broken today.

I think Xavi Hernandez have put in the bench awhile for Inaki and give chance to youth goal keeper Ander Astralaga.

The lineups for both teams are available. Inaki Pena filled the goalkeeper position, he is still trusted as a goalkeeper today. There is no Joao Felix in the full Barcelona squad today, I don't know why he is absent.

After suffering a painful defeat the previous week when they were defeated by Villarreal with a score of 3-5, this week Barcelona will host Osasuna who is ranked 12th in the temporary standings. Statistically Osasuna is no better than Barcelona, but I have deep concerns about them, especially in defence. This season, this point still has many weaknesses which in the end can be exploited by opponents to beat them. Last week's defeat will definitely be a heavy pressure for them, which is precisely the pressure that will probably make it difficult for them to give their best in this match.
Osasuna must have made a strategy based on Barcelona's weaknesses this season, if they succeed in implementing that strategy I won't be surprised when Barcelona loses again in this match.

You know Barcelona is not confident right now and Barcelona is also not very consistent as well. So even though the next match for Barcelona should be very easy for them, I am pretty doubtful about Barcelona. I think there is a very good chance that Barcelona will drop points in this match.

However, I can't disagree Barcelona should be very hungry for a win. The thing is with all the problems that Barcelona is facing right now, there is another one that just got added, the coach is going to leave. So that is another thing Barcelona will have to keep in mind. On paper, it looks like Barcelona should be winning the next match. But I am not so sure.

[ingiltere]

Barca will play with Osasuna today after last week's defeat to Villarreal. I think Xavi is relieved after announcing that he will quit at the end of the season. Looking at the line-up, Barca should win, but Osasuna have also been on a roll in the last 3 games and have come in good form. The fact that the match is in Barcelona and they will play with their ideal squad makes the odds in favor of Barca. I expect a different performance today, a dominant Barca as we know them. They will win with plenty of goals.

Whoever the player is, if they can give their best then the game will be better. Barcelona's chances are certainly good, but they have serious problems in defense so Barcelona always has difficulty avoiding conceding. So far Barcelona have conceded 14 goals in their last 5 matches in all competitions, so maybe today they will get it too.

The match has been going on for 25 minutes and no goals have been scored. Several opportunities have been created, but the players have not been able to maximize them properly. Barcelona needs to be careful with Osasuna's counter attacks, but also has to be creative enough in building attacks.

Although it can indeed be used as a whip of enthusiasm and motivation for Barcelona to win in this match, but with their performance in the last few matches, something like this could not be expected.

Defeats with more than 3 goals in the last 2 matches that their opponents can score, of course, this puts tremendous pressure on Barcelona players, especially for their defenders.
But this match they must be able to pass with 3 points in the end. in terms of quality and performance this match Barcelona is still with the same strength where they certainly bring great dominance in this match but on the other hand if the problems they always face in matches when their strikers cannot finish chances well and their defense still relies on each other when receiving attacks then it is certain that events like in the previous few matches will repeat and Barcelona could lose points again.

If there is any team that I would vouch for or have faith in then it's certainly not the Barcelona of now, this team have become so highly unstable and this is what fear for in a team, the Barcelona I know before would have won this game by a landslide and I doubt the playing capability of this current one, although I know xavi is trying but with the standard at which Barcelona was before now it's fair to say that he is not doing enough and it would be justified.

So far in the 35th minute, Barcelona is still dominating the match but yes, Barcelona still hasn't had a shot on target and it has become a deadlock too. But indeed, with the statistics and players played in this match, Barcelona should be able to win the home match, which is of course an important match to get the three points. But yes, unfortunately Ferran Torres getting injured in this match and this factor might also be a bit of an obstacle for Barcelona to be able to maximize this home match to win. Therefore, even though Barcelona has a chance to win, but I personally believe that final result can occur in this match only with a low score.

[beerlover]

I think Xavi's decision to  resign is the right one. Xavi loves this  club. And he is a living legend  of Barcelona. He was  the coach  of this club for the last 2 years. And  despite Barcelona not being in  a good position, the team  won the La Liga title last  season with the  help of Xavi. But now Barcelona face  a bigger problem. The team's performance  this season has been erratic. Also their financial  condition is not good. So Barcelona needs a more experienced coach.
If Xavi remains as the coach of the team, it will not be  good for Barcelona and Xavi. Barcelona  fans might start trolling  Xavi too. Perhaps this is why Xavi has decided not to stay at Barcelona at the end of this season.

It is not profitable for Barcelona to fire Xavi now, due to money problems, they will not be able to hire a good coach, and it is clear that no one will agree to work for crumbs. So, most likely Xavi will work with the team until the end of the season, but he says that his decision is final, he will leave the team after the end of the season. So, in any case, the team will be coached by a new coach, but who it will be is still unknown. This situation will not be the best for the club, and if everything only gets worse, then perhaps a replacement for Xavi will be found earlier.

They do not have to "hire" a new manager, they could simply put someone who is already there in charge if they wanted to fire him. His assistant, or la masia main manager, or just anyone really, you can put the head scout in, or thee general manager all I care. The point is that, they already have people who are employed as managers, or people in the football world, and for a few more weeks, they could just hire those people, and the games will be ending at around April, rest will not be important, so it is just a few more months to handle.

If the goal was to fire Xavi then they would have done that. The goal is that they didn't see what they saw, and Xavi agreed, Xavi just couldn't get the players to listen to him, that was the issue, so they will separate peacefully.

Barcelona hasn't been able to get what they wanted for a few matches. They have suffered consecutive defeats and they are very unhappy with this situation. Xavi will leave the team at the end of the year. Of course, there are responsibilities that come with this. For example, he will try to take the team to the best ranking because a bad squad and ranking does not suit Barcelona. As for the Osasuna match, the first half has ended and no goals have been scored in the match yet. 0-0 continues. Barcelona should be able to score the winning goal in the second half.

Barcelona must win today's home match against Osasuna after a humiliating defeat against Villarreal. But Barcelona's performance today still fails to satisfy me.

In the last match we saw bad defense from Barcelona. But today the performance of Barcelona's attacking players is poor. Barcelona players could not score any goals in the first half. They attack a lot and Barcelona dominates the match. Even then the team is not able to score any goals. Barcelona players had 70% of the ball possession in the first half. Barcelona will have to increase the speed of attack in the second half. Otherwise the match is more likely to be a draw.

What can Xavi do alone? Football players play the game on the field. Maximum conditions are not created for Xavi. My criticism here could be the management. Barcelona is a world team and they have to bring in the best players. The team generally consists of older players, and the young players also come from La Masia. So the management has accepted failure in order not to spend money.

[bastisisca]

Looking at the betting odds given by the bookies for Barcelona, this should be a convincing win, especially as they get home advantage in today's match against Osasuna. There is no reason for Xavi's squad to lose again in this match, especially last week when they were humiliated by Villarreal at Camp Nou. Meanwhile, Osasuna, who is still in 12th position, has yet to win again after being held to a draw by Sevilla the previous week.

So, this match will be an arena for fighting for points, especially for Barcelona who have not been very consistent lately and they have still not been able to recover after the two previous defeats. The challenge for Xavi must be proven through this match and if they still want to stay in the top 4 then they must win decisively and previous defensive problems must also be corrected so that they don't concede easily. Will you bet on this match and will you maybe bet on Barcelona winning?

it seems like a fairly easy match for Xavi`s Barcelona
the bookmakers have clearly said who they think should win, in my opinion they are right, the difference in strength of the teams is too high and therefore Barcelona could win this match without problems

clearly a defeat would be really heavy for Xavi`s job
