La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[nikola22]

Girona's target should be the La Liga trophy. and it's very close. The difference with Madrid can still be caught. But if their performance worsens again, it will only take a little time for Girona to be overtaken by Barcelona. and if that moment happens, maybe this season's La Liga champion will already be determined and belong to Madrid.
Madrid lost the trophy last season and they don't want to repeat that. and this season they will maintain a safe distance from competing teams at the top.

recent Real Madrid result vs Girona proved that there is a big gap in class between these two teams. Girona didn't show anything decent in two matches vs Real Madrid losing 0-4 and 0-3. Real Madrid is definitely gonna take Primera Liga title. for Girona it will be a good result to stay in top-4.

On the other hand, Real Madrid are definitely favored to win because their mission is not finished yet in being able to widen the gap again from Girona. However, their defense will likely still use Nacho and Tchouameni as central defenders because Rudiger is not yet reported to have recovered from injury. Brahim Diaz's actions in the previous Champions League and as MOTM will be placed as a starter again by Ancelotti considering that Jude Bellingham is still injured. It looks like Vallecano's defeat is still unavoidable and they still haven't been able to get a win from the last 5 matches and this will further worsen their situation at the bottom of the table.

I hope this will be a complete victory for Ancelotti troops, Rayo Vallecano is quite troublesome for Madrid defense and sometimes doesn't provide any opportunities to score goals. Madrid's front line must be more aggressive without Bellingham help. Because based on his comparison with Leipzig, the midfield is always the main gap in pressing Madrid defense. Nancho and Tchouameni task is quite difficult because they are in positions that will be filled with opponent pressure. At least I hope Diaz is on fire because he is the only one who can always move freely and quickly both when counter-attacking and coming down to help the back line.

Tomorrow in the Spanish La Liga campaign, Real Madrid will travel to Estadio de Vallecas where they'll face the host team Rayo Vallecano and considering the performance of both teams since the start of the season, it's believed that the away team are going to comfortably claim all three points from that game. Real Madrid who currently have some important members of the squad sidelined as a result of injuries hasn't allowed the injury crises to stop them from winning matches and tomorrow, I still expect them to win against Rayo Vallecano.

Carlo Ancelotti I think should be given his flowers for everything he's been able to do with the Real Madrid squad this season despite having his best center back defenders sidelined. How he's been able to convert Aurelien Tchoumeni to that center back position and still bring out the best from him needs to be studied

Tomorrow will be a proving ground for Real Madrid because all the teams in La Liga have managed to break the net this season except for Vallecano and it will be a complete mission if they succeed in doing it. This is an away match for Real Madrid to Vallecano headquarters and in the first meeting at the Santiago Bernabeu the two teams only played a goalless draw.

On the other hand, Real Madrid are definitely favored to win because their mission is not finished yet in being able to widen the gap again from Girona. However, their defense will likely still use Nacho and Tchouameni as central defenders because Rudiger is not yet reported to have recovered from injury. Brahim Diaz's actions in the previous Champions League and as MOTM will be placed as a starter again by Ancelotti considering that Jude Bellingham is still injured. It looks like Vallecano's defeat is still unavoidable and they still haven't been able to get a win from the last 5 matches and this will further worsen their situation at the bottom of the table.

Yes, it must be admitted that this season Real Madrid has performed extraordinary. They can beat all the Laliga teams, and tonight they only have Vallecano left for them to break through, maybe this is not a difficult mission for Real Madrid who are in their best form,
I think there would be a lot of goals scored even without Bellingham, but a Madrid substitute could replace him perfectly, this could be a David and Goliath match, one that Real Madrid would win easily, and it's not like Vallecano can't put up a fight. However, looking at their performance, it feels like it will be difficult to stop Real Madrid

But if their performance worsens again, it will only take a little time for Girona to be overtaken by Barcelona. and if that moment happens, maybe this season's La Liga champion will already be determined and belong to Madrid.
Madrid lost the trophy last season and they don't want to repeat that. and this season they will maintain a safe distance from competing teams at the top.

I no that Girona performance on this season has been very good and nothing like before but I seriously doubt if they can be able to win this Spanish La Liga because there is no way real Madrid will go this far on this Spanish la Liga and allow Girona to win the trophy at the end, although at first I was thinking Girona will be able to win the league because real Madrid was not really on there best performance during the beginning of this season but however they were able to regain there performance and utilize the opportunity to secure the position they are now, and currently real Madrid is leading them with a good number of points so it will be very difficult for Girona to compete with them and perhaps the remaining match of real Madrid will be very easy for them to easily win, even there next match against Rayo Vallecano there is every chance that real Madrid will win them, so actually right now I think Girona doesn't have any chances of becoming the league champion.

[bering]

Barcelona will attempts to collect 3 points from Celta today and actually not necessary to compared because obviously Barcelona is much better than Celta but this season Barcelona is very not consistent because as defending champion their performance were very dissapointed and this also makes their current manager Xavi feel he was failed to train Barcelona and whatever the results Barcelona gets at the end of the season he has decide to withdraw from his position because Xavi feel Barcelona is deserve to gets new manager which more better than him

Celta was very weak this season and until week 24 Celta only gets 4 wins which makes their position at 17th place so from whole conditions obviously Barcelona is more better than Celta and the squad conditions between these teams actually very good especially Celta because all of their main players will be available and in the good fitness even so with Barcelona although some of their players got injured but i think it won't be affect to their performance because Barcelona has good depth of squad however Barcelona this season have a problem when they playing against small teams and it proven from their matches records even last week Barcelona was failed to win from Granada and for today match actually Barcelona has good odds to bets @1.85 so lets see today whether they can able to return to the winning ways or Barcelona will losing points again from this match

[3meek]

Atletico Madrid looks like they will get an easy win in today's match against Las Palmas. Because currently in the first half alone, Atletico Madrid is already 2 goals ahead because they managed to score 1 goal in the 15th minute and 1 goal in the 20th minute. And maybe this will not be the last goal that Atletico Madrid will score in this match. Because maybe in the second half Atletico Madrid will add another goal against Las Palmas. For the time being, if Atletico Madrid can end this match with a win then Atletico Madrid will temporarily be ranked 3rd. But that might only be temporary because Barcelona today will play Celta Vigo where Barcelona will also be favorites and will probably win full points and return to rank 3.

Atletico really destroyed Las Palmas, scoring four goals and the match is not over yet... I think that with these results they will definitely stay in the Champions League next season... But this season they can also show a good result, although they got not a weak opponent Inter...

We are very close to the end of game and atletico madrid has scored 4 goals. The win is getting even closer since atletico madrid has got easy opponent. Madrid is playing quite consistent right now. Im also aware palmas would not get chance to attack atletico madrid.
I must admit that atletico madrid is showing that if it's a strong club. I often saw palmas made its opponent struggle to beat it but im not even seeing it happen now. ATL madrid is obviously playing better than the previous matches.
Ez win for bettors of atletico madrid. Palmas feel so hard just to attack atletico madrid. Absolute win for atletico madrid. this is good.

Tomorrow in the Spanish La Liga campaign, Real Madrid will travel to Estadio de Vallecas where they'll face the host team Rayo Vallecano and considering the performance of both teams since the start of the season, it's believed that the away team are going to comfortably claim all three points from that game. Real Madrid who currently have some important members of the squad sidelined as a result of injuries hasn't allowed the injury crises to stop them from winning matches and tomorrow, I still expect them to win against Rayo Vallecano.

How he's been able to convert Aurelien Tchoumeni to that center back position and still bring out the best from him needs to be studied

The forecast for tomorrow's match between Rayo and Real Madrid seems to be getting tighter because both teams are trying their best to get additional points in this league match.
Playing at home will likely have a big influence on the Rayo team being able to achieve victory, but of course Real Madrid will not just stand idly by, the team will definitely try to prevent the Rayo squad from achieving victory.
Indeed, currently both teams are trying to add points to each other, with Real Madrid able to maintain its current position at the top of the Spanish League standings, while Rayo is trying to add more points to climb to the top of the Spanish League standings. this time. season.
If you look at the chances of winning, the one who will win is the Real Madrid squad because the team already has a lot of points obtained during the match, while Rayo is still below Real Madrid with the points currently obtained. The standings and that's not all that Rayo has while competing in the Spanish League. They were considered not good enough to achieve negative results because of the many defeats they received, whereas for Real Madrid during the match they got positive results because of the many wins they achieved and only one defeat they received.

[slapper]

However real Madrid are currently have 60 points, which puts them ahead ahead of Girona five points. Real Madrid is expected to get more points in their upcoming encounter against Valencia. Despite Valencia's weak performance, I believe Real Madrid will put much a tremendous effort and achieve positive outcomes. My guess is that Real Madrid can absolutely realize their ambitions, they will be the ones to win the La Liga title.

Girona performance is not as consistent as when Barcelona and Atletico Madrid gave Real Madrid competition in the race for trophies. Now Girona is five points behind Real Madrid, maybe this number will increase even more when Girona plays against a stronger team. Real Madrid will continue to try to maintain its position, especially since this season the competition for trophies is not very competitive. The declining performance of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid makes things easier for Real Madrid. Maximum results are always Real Madrid's goal to celebrate their success sooner than expected.

They're behind Real Madrid, but context matters. Being in this conversation is a feat for Girona, which few expected. Their team isn't star-studded, but heart and strategy have taken them far. Impressive, really. Real Madrid benefits from Barcelona and Atletico Madrid underperforming, but it also shows how open the battle has grown. Girona has a chance to shine and make an impact. I want them to be consistent and surprise us. Unexpected moments have always defined football

Ez win for bettors of atletico madrid. Palmas feel so hard just to attack atletico madrid. Absolute win for atletico madrid. this is good.

What an easy win for Atletico Madrid against Palmas, with a lean sheet. Palmas is weak and has weak defense, which makes it easy for Atletico to damage their defense and score a whopping four goals in the match.

Palmas should improve their game in their next match, or is it that the host was too strong for them. We saw how  Atletico lost their last match, and maybe it was that anger that they used to play their visitors and dealt with them. An easy three points for the host.

odds given by the bookmakers are very attractive but we have to consider that several Barcelona players are injured, such as Felix, Ferran Torres, Gavi and Marcos Alonso who are injured and will not be able to appear in today's match.
from the data I see the reason the bookmaker gives odds @1.85 is because the chance of Barcelona winning is only around 50%+ and this gives us doubts as bettors and I will just look for a more comfortable betting option betting on BTTS.

regarding Barcelona current performance, it is indeed unstable as it has lost consistency after several players suffered injuries and especially Felix as an attacking player, he is very influential for Lewandowski who usually works very solidly with these two players.
Felix absence will greatly affect Barcelona success in gaining 3 points from Celta.

Atletico really destroyed Las Palmas, scoring four goals and the match is not over yet... I think that with these results they will definitely stay in the Champions League next season... But this season they can also show a good result, although they got not a weak opponent Inter...

At the start of the current season, I was of the opinion that Atletico Madrid are gonna be a strong contender for the Spanish La Liga title and that's because of their impressive start to the season. They're the only Spanish team that was able to defeat Real Madrid this season but unfortunately for them, their inconsistency in the league have made them to be considered as a lesser team than second placed Girona for who competes for the league title.

This afternoon against Las Palmas, Atletico Madrid were simply in their best form as they successfully humiliated their visitors with a thumping 5:0 scoreline. Despite their result today, I still don't think they stand a chance of stopping Real Madrid from winning the Spanish La Liga title at the end  of the current season.

After Atletico Madrid got bad results in the previous two matches, now they have started to find a turning point against the bottom team Las Palmas to be able to regain the confidence of the Atletico Madrid team which had decreased and this victory is quite important for those who are competing fiercely at the top. .
This is not a surprising result and indeed Atletico Madrid deserved this big win.

Las Palmas was left empty-handed in this match because Atletico Madrid is the team that has won the most home matches in La Liga this season. Atletico Madrid even won by 5 goals in this match. Marcos Llorente and Angel Correa scored twice to help slumping Atletico Madrid beat visitors Las Palmas. Atletico, They deserved to win after a beautiful performance. I'm very impressed Marcos Llorente, Excellent match by Marcos Llorente today! Coaches and fans must have been delighted with his performance.

The most practical goal of Atletico is to protect its position in the Top 4. Atletico moved to third place in La Liga with 51 points.

who knows if atletico will get another bad result after this. I must admit atletico's performance is outstanding in this game coz it's able scoring 4 goals against palmas. I knew palmast as a strong team that was very difficult to lost. Atletico and barcelona can only wait for real madrid and girona to missing points in this matchday.
Real madrid is going to face ez team. So, this is not going to be a serious trouble for the club. Rayo was still out of top 10. Im not expecting a tough game from madrid vs rayo. Madrid will be dominating the game soon. BTTS is unlikely to happen and 1x2 madrid is the best choice for this match.
Cadiz vs osassuna is still happening right now. Cadiz and osassuna were not able threatening each other. Cadiz has made 1 shot and 1 goal attempt while osassuna was still zero right now. Neither of these clubs are going to dominate the game. They are playing equally.
Cadiz is not owning the ball possession but this club seems put more focus on how to attack its opponent. In my prediction, cadiz will be winning the game with narrow score. At least 1-0 for cadiz. Osassuna is performing so badly this season.

[rendravolt]

Atletico poured out all their anger in this match and did not hesitate to destroy Las Palmas with a score of 5-0 without reply. Llorente and Correa both recorded braces and were added to by a goal from Depay towards the end of the match. This clearly indicates the success of Atletico, who previously lost against Sevilla and I didn't expect them to be this fierce.

Unfortunately, Las Palmas couldn't do more in this match and they had difficulty even getting back just one goal. Even though Las Palmas performed quite well before this match and managed to beat Valencia in the previous match. Even though I already knew who the winner was, I at least hoped that Las Palmas could give Atletico trouble but unfortunately that didn't happen. Atletico has moved up to 3rd in the standings and they have the same 51 points as Barcelona, but Barcelona will still play today's match against Celta Vigo and it is hoped that the Blaugrana can win again after previously having to draw against Granada.

This is not a surprising result and indeed Atletico Madrid deserved this big win.

2 consecutive defeats are a reference for Atletico to no longer lose points in the match against Palmas, currently the clubs that are in positions 3, 4 and 5 will be increasingly fierce in the competition to win tickets to the Champions League next season, Atletico which has the same points With Barcelona, ​​of course, they can't afford to lose any more points in their remaining matches because it could mean that their chances of getting to the Champions League will disappear considering that Bilbao continues to stick tightly to 5th place in the La Liga standings, Atletico victory over Palmas is something to be grateful for, but I think their progress in the league It's still very difficult considering that they still have matches against Girona, Barcelona and also Bilbao, if Atletico Madrid don't immediately improve their playing performance, of course it's not impossible that they will continue to lose points, especially now that they have a busy schedule waiting for them.

Even though Las Palmas performed quite well before this match and managed to beat Valencia in the previous match. Even though I already knew who the winner was, I at least hoped that Las Palmas could give Atletico trouble but unfortunately that didn't happen. Atletico has moved up to 3rd in the standings and they have the same 51 points as Barcelona, but Barcelona will still play today's match against Celta Vigo and it is hoped that the Blaugrana can win again after previously having to draw against Granada.

La Palmas did perform well in that match. They actually controlled the match and had more ball possession and more passes than Atletico. I'm not saying La Palmas should have won because we know Atletico's aggressive playing tactics meant they didn't have much possession of the ball. But as you say I think at least it's a 2-0 or 3-1 game. But it looks like Atletico really wants to destroy La Palmas after a bad result in the previous match.

I think Barcelona will win that game and return to third place. Even though Barcelona once lost surprisingly to Villareal, I think they will also do what Atletico did in that match.

[hahay]

For the time being, if Atletico Madrid can end this match with a win then Atletico Madrid will temporarily be ranked 3rd. But that might only be temporary because Barcelona today will play Celta Vigo where Barcelona will also be favorites and will probably win full points and return to rank 3.

Atletico really destroyed Las Palmas, scoring four goals and the match is not over yet... I think that with these results they will definitely stay in the Champions League next season... But this season they can also show a good result, although they got not a weak opponent Inter...

The final score was 5-0 for Atletico victory and yes, at least Atletico also had a mission or target of revenge in this match. Because after all, in their first meeting this season, Las Palmas managed to create a surprise because yes, Las Palmas, which was only a promoted team this season. But in reality, Las Palmas still able to beat Atletico with a score of 2-1 at that time, in their first meeting this season . So yes, with a big win like this with score 5-0, of course Atletico managed to get revenge with a perfect result. So of course, Atletico is still in the top four and also for Las Palmas who are still in the top 10 at the moment, and that's still a good position for them.

Atletico Madrid lost twice in a row in two different competitions. They lost to Bilbao in the Copa Del Rey then lost to Sevilla in La Liga. Meanwhile Atletico Madrid are starting to look good with a big win against Las Palmas after dropping 5 points in their last two games against Real Madrid and Sevilla, so today's win is very important.

As one of the regular teams in the Champions League, Atletico Madrid has a good chance of securing its ticket to the Champions League next season. Athletic Bilbao does not really threaten Atletico Madrid's position, unless Atletico Madrid loses a lot of points from a number of future matches. Barcelona also has a good chance of staying in the Champions League zone, but today they have to ensure victory after being forced to draw against Granada.
