La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[ShowOff]

Yep. Athletic Bilbao is in a more favorable position
and Estadio San Mamés would be the perfect venue to advance to the Copa del Rey final.
They only need to avoid defeat to repeat their feat from the 2020/2021 season.
The winner of this match will face Mallorca, who won on penalties at the Anoeta Stadium.
Best of luck to the team...

The Athletic Bilbao vs Atlético Madrid match will be the second Head to Head Semi Final Leg match with an aggregate of 1-0. Currently, Athletic Bilbao is in 5th position in the La Liga standings with 49 points from 26 matches, in five matches with two wins, two draws and one defeat. while Atletico Madrid is in 4th position in the 2023/2024 La Liga standings by winning 52 points from 26 matches. Atletico Madrid looks superior to Athletic Bilbao in the 46 matches between the two, Atletico Madrid with 26 wins, seven draws and 13 defeats against Athletic Bilbao.

The performance of the two teams in La Liga seems a little different, but this is a semi-final that is basically like a final for both teams. Bilbao is indeed superior on aggregate and superior in the home match, but this is not something that makes Atletico Madrid fail in this second leg. Atletico Madrid is a strong team and I don't think they will give up easily in this match.

Bilbao were really good and they managed to steal an early goal at home to make it 2-0 on aggregate. Iñaki Williams' volley damaged Atletico Madrid's mentality, it looked good for the first 13 minutes. There is still a lot of time, but Atletico Madrid seems to be under pressure to recover.

Luckily Alvaro Morata can play in this second leg and it will be a game changer if he can score a goal for Atletico. I feel that Atletico is not completely disadvantaged and this is only a small aggregate that Atletico can complete in 90 minutes. Now it is Bilbao who have to be more alert because Atletico seem to be hungry and they are so hungry for victory after being humiliated at home previously.

First, I thought Los Colchoneros will not encounter any more challenges after eliminating Real Madrid from the tournament, but now looking at them, they're on the verge of losing. An early goal in 2 minutes of the game puts Athletic Club infront. They're currently leading with 2-0 on the scores aggregate. Big dissapointing results but all hope is not lost because there's still enough time for Atletico Madrid to do an epic comeback. I'm more concerned with Atletico Madrid top striker, Alvaro Morata who serves a crucial purpose under Los Colchoneros boss, Diego Simeone. There's no way they're hitting good number of goals without the presence of the Spanish international. He's not good with footings on the ball but when it comes to scoring goals, don't underestimate him because that's the spot he's destined for.

Its surprising right, it glads my mind to see Diego Simeone side struggling because I was sad when my favorite team, Real Madrid got eliminated by Atletico Madrid, that was one of the dissapointing night because my money on stake losts. Moreover there's more to hope for because Atletico Madrid are keeping fierce pressing on the home team. I would say Athletic Club are just having lucky stars in the second leg of the Copa del Rey. They're playing nothing that's yielding positive impact, instead they maintain their ground for defensive game.

Athletic Club v Atletico Madrid
aggregate (1-0)

Athletic Club StartXI: 4-2-3-1
Julen Agirrezabala; Óscar de Marcos; Daniel Vivian; Aitor Paredes; Íñigo Lekue; Iñigo Ruiz de Galarreta; Beñat Prados; Iñaki Williams; Oihan Sancet; Nico Williams; Gorka Guruzeta

Atletico Madrid StartXI: 5-3-2
Jan Oblak; Nahuel Molina; Stefan Savić; Axel Witsel; Mario Hermoso; Samuel Lino; Marcos Llorente; Koke; Rodrigo de Paul; Álvaro Morata; Ángel Correa

Here we go for the second leg of the semi finals, Athletic Club are already winning and again they are in a better position to win today match apart from been the leading team their performance is consistent compared to Atletico Madrid for winning only one game out of five matches, Atletico Madrid are facing low performance this season, due to my analysis Athletic Club have hope of winning.

Luckily Alvaro Morata can play in this second leg and it will be a game changer if he can score a goal for Atletico. I feel that Atletico is not completely disadvantaged and this is only a small aggregate that Atletico can complete in 90 minutes. Now it is Bilbao who have to be more alert because Atletico seem to be hungry and they are so hungry for victory after being humiliated at home previously.

ATM needs to fight in this first leg so they don't lose this game because since they are currently losing with 1 goal now they need to defend very well so they don't concede more goals since Morata will be back in the second leg. ATM  will surely get a goal if they improve in their performance because right now Bilbao is not letting them get closer to getting a closer attempt on their post  until they are able to force attack to break the defense on Bilbao they may end up losing the game without getting a goal.

[Lillominato89]

Incredibly, Atletico Madrid are currently losing 2-0 to Athletic Club, it seems that Simeone is snubbing the Copa del Rey to focus on La Liga and the Champions League. I really hope I'm wrong and see the result overturned at the end of the match

Atletico Madrid was really slaughtered in the first half of this match. It's astonishing. How big is the contribution and influence of the injured Griezmann to make Atletico Madrid this weak? especially with a very defensive formation, did they really aim to defend when in the first leg, they were behind on a goal, so why did they choose to defend? hmm.

On the other hand, Bilbao can really take advantage of this moment to optimally attack Atletico Madrid. Even though they may not have that big of an attack statistically, they can score goals effectively and accurately, which is satisfying. It could be that the final will actually be the final match between Mallorca vs Bilbao.

Wait, this is the second leg of the Copa Del Rey semi-final where previously Bilbao had won 0-1 in the first leg. Bilbao regained the lead at home by ending the first half with a 2-0 win, making the aggregate 3-0. Atletico Madrid's chances of qualifying for the final are getting lower because after all scoring 3 goals is very difficult.

Atletico Madrid did not perform well in this match and they looked under pressure throughout the match. Bilbao is very confident and the support of the existing supporters is a big motivation to punish Atletico Madrid. The second half should be more interesting, but only if Diego Simeone has good options to make significant changes. For now, Bilbao seem to have put their foot in the final even though they have to finish the second half.

[KTChampions]

Athletic 2 - 0 Atletico

After the first half the situation is like this. If we take into account the result of the first game, then in order for Atletico to even the score, they need to score 3 goals in the second half and not concede a single one. I think this is unrealistic, Athletic is too good.
Thus, Athletic reaches the finals where they will most likely take the title.
I think after this game, few will doubt that Athletic has every chance of throwing someone out of the top 4 (either Atletico or Barcelona).

Madrid must continue to be able to maintain its current consistency because however even though they are superior in terms of points now it can still be caught up if they are careless and do not take advantage of the moment in every match.
Against Valencia, despite playing away, Madrid are still the favorite club in terms of bookmakers' odds and I think that's a good thing but besides all that, I think this will be quite an emotional match again.  

We know that last season there was a problem where Vini had some tensions with the Valencia fans and even with the La Liga federation due to racism and this could be a match with a lot of ambition from Vini which will definitely make the match more interesting.

Madrid first meet with Valencia of the season was a 5-1 win at the Bernabeu and this could be a good motivation for Madrid as their statistics are better than Valencia.  

The absence of several players who are Don Carlo's mainstay due to injury could affect the performance of the Real Madrid squad when playing their matches. like when Madrid hosted the match against Sevilla, Carlo Ancelotti's squad had difficulty scoring goals. despite the fact, there are many opportunities they create. however, the Madrid players had difficulty scoring goals in the match until Luca Modric was the deciding factor in the match against Sevilla. that's why, if Anceloti doesn't want minor results or defeat. he had to formulate a formula for his team, especially because Bellingham and Joselu were absent due to injuries. this week, Raal Madrid will visit the Mestalla, Valencia's home ground. even though on paper Madrid are far superior, Don Carlo cannot repeat what his team did against Sevilla.

In this match, the bookie favors Madrid with odds @1.69. while Valencia, with odds @5.40.  To be honest, I doubt that the home team will be able to beat Real Madrid. however, this match does not rule out the possibility of ending in a draw. if the result is like this, it means there is a chance for Girona and Barcelona to reduce the points gap between them. We'll see if the Madrid players recover from their injuries and will play in the match against Valencia. or, Don Carlo had to change his system because several of his mainstay players were injured. well, let's just wait for more certainty, because the match will be held in the next 2 days.

Athletico Bilbao is one strong force in the la Liga this season so I'm not surprised that they are winning Atletico Madrid by 2:0 in the first half of this Copa del Rey semi finals and they're equally having an advantage of aggregate 3:0 over Atletico Madrid because they also won Atletico Madrid by 1:0 in the first leg and moreover, with the determination and resilience that Athletico Bilbao is playing against Atletico Madrid I don't think they would give them any chance in this match however, it's obvious that Athletico Bilbao is heading into the finals of the Copa del Rey alongside Mallorca who won Real Sociedad on penalties on Tuesday after a 1:1 draw.

[Spot0nGamechain]

Well seems like Atletico will lose me some more FUN today. I'm not too surprised, but still, I expected more fight from them. Guess this really isn't their season, unless they somehow manage to beat Inter, which is quite hard to expect, all things considered

It is now 3 - 0
Pity Atletico Madrid 


What a wonderful achievement by It seems like they have been already ready for winning this match. And until now (62'), Atletico Madrid even still cannot get their point, no goal yet.
And moreover, Bilbao add 1 goal again after that in the second half.
I think this is time to say goodbye to Atletico Madrid

Athletico isn't and hasn't been a weak team at all since this season so I definitely expected such performance form tham but I'm aswell optimistic about the fact that atletico Madrid will definitely get a goal before the end of the game they are currently playing already, so far atletico Madrid is dominating with possession and almost every other statistics but then they have been able to secure a goal and this implies that they are most likely not going to be able to win the game by the end  game to night as they are already gotten past the seventieth minutes of the game. Atletico isn't a bad team at all and so I did expected they would ha e been able to get back at Bilbao at the second half after been won in the first half actually.

Bilbo is the Is actually not a team that's expected to get such a land slide victory against atletico Madrid in their current encounter already. Both team are actually striving to getting the point because they both need the ri huh

Here we go, guys again Atlatico Madrid are losing the match I didn't understand what was wrong with them. Recently Atlatico Madrid have lose every single match since Real Madrid Darby including the Champions League and La Liga and now they are know outing for Copa del Rey. They lost all of his matches, including six consecutive losses without the Las Palmas match. What is wrong with them. This tactics problem or players losing their confidence in terms of statistics.
 
But anyway By Atlatic side I mean Athletic Club are just dominating the match Both brothers are just putting Atlético Madrid into his pocket by their dominant performances, like both scoring and even assisting each other. But anyway Athletic Club has just qualified for the final and the final will be played between Mallorca and Athletic Club on April 6th.
 
What did you think guys? Atlatico Madrid has some tactics problem or players lose their confidence like low morale. Share your opinion with us.

Valencia vs Real Madrid
These two teams will face each other this week, and the match will be held at the Mestalla Stadium, which is the headquarters of Valencia. Valencia itself is not in a good condition, in the last 5 matches alone they have suffered 2 defeats, 2 wins and 1 draw. Indeed, the results are not too bad, but the results are not good either. Valencia will get pressure from their guests in this match. While Real Madrid they can comfortably breada at the top of the table after Girona slowly declined which made them finally able to distance themselves from Girona's pursuit. They are 6 points ahead of Girona who are right below them in the standings.

Real Madrid must take advantage of this match very well because if they lose maybe they will be able to be pursued again by Girona. Looking at their opponents, victory should not be something very difficult, but they must still play very well to be able to ensure victory is in their hands. After all, looking at the squad they have, the squad owned by Valencia is not better than them.

Real Madrid has already started winning matches, and they will not lose again Expect their players to be injured, which will cause them to play awful games. Valencia is really weak to compete. Real Madrid, I believe, will be a winning game for Ancelotti this weekend in order to maintain a lead over Girona and Barcelona when they lose. Girona is doing well and does not want to give up until the league is concluded. Madrid is playing league and champions league, while Girona is only focusing on one competition, and he can reflect that some Madrid players may get injured, which can affect them when they don't have better players on the pitch and they lose points, giving Girona the opportunity to raise and probably they can get the league, but I believe he won't happen like that Ancelotti will be resting some players in some matches in the Champions League.

It is very hard for Atletico Madrid to qualify for the Copa Del Rey final. because in the first leg Atletico playing on home ground lost 1 - 0. and currently already 2-0 behind. whoever calms this match I think it will be easy to become a Copa Del Rey champion. because in the final will only face a weak team Real Malorca.
and this now 3-0

The match it's over with the final scores 3-0 and with this result Bilbao can advances to the final match with final aggregate 4-0 and actually this result is predictable because just like i said plenty this season Bilbao can change became an dark horses team and their performance were very impressive in Laliga and Copa Del Rey but it's not easy for Bilbao to reach the final match because they have to fight against several strong teams in this competition and one of them is Barcelona that in the quarterfinal matches Bilbao facing Barcelona and at that time they were successfully to eliminate Barcelona with big scores

Bilbao will fight against Mallorca in the final match and Mallorca also can able to advances to the final match after eliminate Sociedad with penalty kick and last time Bilbao was playing at the final match of Copa Del Rey on 2021 but at that time they lost from Barcelona and for this season they will attempts to gets their first trophy in this competition after 1984 and for Mallorca they want to repeat their achievement on 2003 when they successfully to gets the trophy so let see it later who is the winner of Copa Del Rey trophy for this season but i think Bilbao will being an the favourite

Rather difficult to explain what exactly happened but in my opinion this is a kind of trend that happened because previously almost all teams in Laliga experienced it except Real Madrid, we know Barcelona experienced it last month but now their game is starting to improve well maybe Atletico Madrid is in this situation. Currently Atletico Madrid will focus on the match in La Liga because they will maintain a position in the top 4 moreover they are not in a safe position and Athletic Club is under those who can catch up anytime only 3 points adrift. Now the question is whether Atletico Madrid can survive in the top 4 before the end of the season? I mean if their performance does not improve in the near future they will lose that place.

The match ended 3-0. Athletic club beat Atletico Madrid for the third time this season, they beat them in their Laliga first leg match, and home and away winning Copa del Rey competition.
Atletico Madrid has now been eliminated in Copa del Ray competition this season, the only trophy hope they had this season has gone again, they cannot be able to bid for the Laliga title because Real Madrid, Girona, and Barcelona are the strongest team there that have chance of winning, Atletico Madrid will just be hoping for Champions League qualification next season.

The game ended, as many predicted and expected it to end, including me, because I am not even expecting Atletico Madrid to win the game because Athletic Club are more in form and strong in themes for performance and strikes than them, and I know Athletic Club will not like to miss this opportunity because it has been enough, which, if I am not mistaken, was the interval of time that is almost three years since when they were able to meet up to the finals.

 So you will tell me that they should not push for the higher target, which they end up getting. What they expect to achieve is to win the game, and they did it, so I don't think you won’t expect them to lose in such a change. That is why the effort has been put in by Athletic Club not to end up losing.

[logfiles]

People just don't know how strong Athletic Bilbao is, especially in their home Stadium, San Mamés. Copa del Rey is also their favorite tournament. They have won it 23 times in the past, ahead of Real Madrid (20) and Atlético Madrid (10). Only Barcelona has won more titles (31). No surprise, they obliterated a stubborn Atlético Madrid tonight. I think they are bagging this year's title.
I am also pretty impressed by how the Iñaki Williams and Nico Williams are coordinating so well and making history at the Athletic club.
