La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[topbitcoin]

[Las Palmas did play very well especially in defense even though they lost 1 player in the first 20 minutes of the first half but they were quite solid in defense even with 10 players it could be used as an excuse but another reason that makes more sense is because Barcelona is very bad in their attack where their effectiveness seems to be lost when in attack situations and makes them seem to waste the opportunities they have in this match.

They controlled the match because it was a definite thing they did. besides that, they also had not a few chances where when looking at the statistics there were about 14 chances they managed to get but from the on target they created they only did 2 on target and one of them became a goal making us know how bad Barcelona's attack was in today's match.
It's a good thing they scored 1 goal because otherwise I'm not sure what kind of criticism they will get later when this match is over.

There were many wasted opportunities in that match and that was because the players' finishing was not good. Joao Felix failed to score a close range goal, Lewandowski too, and that was a loss in itself for Barcelona even though they could win their home game. Statistically, Barcelona should have scored 2 to 3 goals in that match, but poor finishing was the reason why they only ended the match with a score of 1-0.

The victory over Las Palmas once again confirmed that Barcelona is still able to maintain its good performance to get maximum points. Barcelona is able to maintain a 2-point gap above Girona, while they might get closer to Real Madrid if Bilbao wins today. If Real Madrid wins, then the points gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona and Girona does not change, it is still the same as before.

The bar is always a problem because on several occasions the chances they created hit the bar but on the other hand that is not the reason that Las Palmas were lucky because in the end it was still Barcelona who did not have good finishing in this match which made the situation not too favorable for them.

Although 3 points were won in this match, the difference is still the same because Madrid also won quite convincingly despite the absence of Vini in the squad but Rodrygo was able to make a difference in yesterday's match.

The situation is still the same where the points are still quite tight for Barcelona and Girona as well as Bilbao and Atletico Madrid who are still quite able to compete in the Champions League Zone, although for the position of champions and the race for the trophy it seems difficult because it is possible that Madrid is the one who secured it again.

Real Madrid managed to beat Atletico Bilbao with a score of 2-0. The 2 goals were created by Rodrygo in the 8th minute and also the 73rd minute which succeeded in bringing Real Madrid to 3 points from this match. Indeed, from the start, Real Madrid were the main favorites in this match and they were able to respond to the trust placed in them.
Actually there was nothing special in this match, because the match went as predicted. Atletico Bilbao were actually also able to put up resistance, but they couldn't penetrate the defense built by Real Madrid, so they couldn't score a single goal.
This result makes Real Madrid's position still the same as before, but this is a threat for Atletico Bilbao, because it is very likely that this defeat will make them lose 4th position in the standings. Atletico Madrid will be prepared to take that position as long as they can win when they face Villarreal in the next match. Atletico Madrid has a great opportunity to return to the top 4 in the standings.

In fact, if Brahim Diaz's kick was on target and didn't hit the goalpost, it's likely that Real Madrid could get 3 scores in the match.
Many people say that it would be more appropriate for Rodrygo to be placed on the side that has always been Rodrygo's favorite place to score.
I agree with the opinion of anyone who says Rodrygo's performance was very good as long as he got into the right position and was also able to put pressure on the Bilbao defense several times.
Bilbao in yesterday's match couldn't do anything and in my opinion they could only attack twice towards Real Madrid's goal but that's not too worrying.
Bellingham in yesterday's match was unable to score because his position was actually not right, but 1 assist was more than enough.

The current position has not changed but Atletic Bilbao's position is threatened by Atletico Madrid who will compete against Villarreal.
Bilbao certainly only hopes for a draw or defeat from Atletico Madrid.

[Ahli38]

although real Madrid had an early goal that kind of helped them gain balance and control of the ball from the start of the match, athletic club played a very beautiful football and thier two teams brought an equal energy that match each other's energy which brought the tempo of the game to becoming very high. The difference in the ball possession was quite little which totally goes to show the effort that came in from the both team. What only made the difference is more about the mentality from the real Madrid side to always win thier games and you could literally see great runs from Rodrigo which paid him well to scoring two goals that saw them into victory.

The home advantage was in itself a plus for them and they just had to make the best use of all the opportunities they hard and the rest is just mere stories

Bilbao did put up quite a good fight in that match, although in the end Bilbao couldn't score against Real Madrid, but Bilbao had effort and hard work that should be appreciated. Bilbao simply had more advantages in corner kicks in the match than Real Madrid. Which indicates that Bilbao always has difficulty entering Real Madrid's defense area. Real Madrid managed to win as most people expected. And this one more win makes Real Madrid even stronger at the top of the standings. Because one by one, Real Madrid have gone through difficult matches and I think for the time being, Real Madrid can even focus their concentration more on the UCL.

Atletico Madrid will be prepared to take that position as long as they can win when they face Villarreal in the next match. Atletico Madrid has a great opportunity to return to the top 4 in the standings.

Real Madrid won easily, that's normal because they were playing at home even though Atletico Bilbao also had good quality this season, but it must also be admitted that Real Madrid's strength is slightly better compared to other La Liga teams.

Real Madrid's position at the top of the standings is very safe now and I think with an 8 point advantage it makes them quite comfortable and with the quality they have it shouldn't be difficult for Real Madrid to stay at the top of the standings until the end of the season.

And Atletico Bilbao is currently very threatened in 4th position, they are only 1 point ahead of Atletico Madrid and the Atletico Madrid team has not played a match this week so it is possible that Atletico Bilbao will lose their 4th position.
Atletico Bilbao's performance has indeed declined a bit now, in the last 5 matches they have only been able to win 2 matches.

The way Real Madrid are currently progressing in the La Liga points table, we can be sure that they will be champions this season. Real Madrid's strong pursuit of the title means they are sure to win this season and are still far ahead of Girona and Barcelona. Maybe Barcelona will never overtake Real Madrid this season as they are already far ahead in the points table. Real Madrid are likely to win the title this season, and Barcelona may not be able to compete with Madrid.

Barcelona must use next season if they want to overtake and beat Real Madrid, because this season it will no longer be possible for Barcelona to overtake Real Madrid in the standings. And they also don't have the ability to beat Real Madrid, so Barcelona will have to take another time next season to be able to make this happen if Real Madrid is not so consistent next season. But Barcelona themselves also have to develop more in their strength and way of playing next season, because to beat a team as good as Real Madrid you definitely have to have better talent.

For now we don't know what Barcelona's plan for the following season because we know they have financial problems that can hamper their plans. On the other hand, Real Madrid is getting closer to Mbappe rumors and if this rumor is true, there is no way for Barcelona to compete with Real Madrid this means that Barcelona is really in a complicated situation, what do you think will be done by Barcelona? Some people say Barcelona can rely on local talents from the academy but I think it takes a long time it even takes 3-4 seasons to increase it and there is no guarantee that it will work, another solution Barcelona must immediately get another loan if possible and release Lewandowski of course.

[wakier]

8 points already between Real and Barcelona and at this point we can safely say Real are champions 90%.

Also , I doubt he will see a fight for European spots as 6th place has a comfortable distance of 7 points vs 7th place. Also , the relegation zone seems like locked in for some teams and this will draw down the viewership on LaLiga a lot but it's normal because last 3 years in Spain have been pure chaos on the relegation zone with so many new teams coming into LaLiga and then , they relegate the next season back to LaLiga2.

Yeah Real Madrid is already in the safe zone and they are still consistently winning every match so there is no way for Barcelona to catch up, meanwhile in the relegation zone, only Cadiz has a chance to get out and we can see their efforts in the last 3 matches they collected 6 points. In the Champions League zone we will see competition between Atletico Madrid and Athletic Club and today Atletico Madrid will play away against Villarreal, there is no other choice, Atletico Madrid must win if they want to move up to the top 4 or if the two teams only draw then the situation will become even more complicated. On the other hand, Villarreal is on fire after winning 4 matches in a row obviously this will increase the players' confidence, especially when playing at home.

Madrid will continue to do this until this season is over because the point difference between Madrid and Barcelona is still the same as before, namely 8 points. If Madrid suffers 3 defeats in the remaining matches this season, then Barcelona has the opportunity to overtake, but Madrid will not let that defeat happen because Madrid is more focused now and don't want to lose points.
Cadiz CF is trying hard to get out of the relegation zone but in the next match they will face a quite tough match against Barca so I don't think Cadiz CF will be able to face Barca in this match who is on fire.

Girona has been given the best odds in this match against Real Betis, therefore any bettors who pick Girona as the favorite to win will have a winning bet with good odds. I didn't expect Girona to win against Betis because they lost their last away game against Getafe. Girona must continue to win games in order to maintain their position in qualifying for the next Champions League. They have improved since the beginning of the season, even if they do not win the league, they should finish among the top four.

Girona was able to put a good performance on that match that was why they manage to win the match, although what happen was that real Betis is a club that understand how Girona team plays that's why they gave Girona a hard time but they manage to score on the 36 minutes and because of how consistent real Betis is they had to equalize the game before they could go for halftime, although Girona was very lucky on that penalty because if they had not giving the penalty real Betis would have been leading them on the first half and probably they would have end up playing draw, well congratulations to Girona team because they are back to compete with Barcelona on the second position.

Real Madrid dominated. Rodrygo absolutely earned his two goals - the guy's got some serious talent. And that defense? Impenetrable. Its obvious why they're dominating La Liga this season. That 8-point lead feels pretty secure, but crazier things have happened in football.

Now, Bilbao...Im concerned for them. Hanging on to that Champions League spot is going to be brutal. Their recent form is worrying, and Atletico Madrid is relentless. They need a serious turnaround or we're looking at a different top four. Im not going to count them out just yet, but its going to be a tense finish to the season

They almost drew, but Girona was able to score a late goal in added time so they could win this match. Actually, in their game there is not much difference, because Real Betis can also give them resistance, as evidenced by the 2 goals they were able to score in this match. In my opinion, they were just unlucky because they conceded in the added minute, which meant they had to go home empty-handed.

This defeat extends the record of defeats experienced by Real Betis, now they have suffered 4 defeats in a row, this is something bad for them. If only they had not received consecutive defeats like that, perhaps they would have been in quite tight competition for a position in the European zone. However, they actually felt the result they didn't want by continuously losing in the last 4 matches they played. On the other hand, this result allows Girona to maintain their position in 3rd place, at least they are quite safe for now.

Atletico Madrid has a great opportunity to return to the top 4 in the standings.

My impression is that Rodrygo when playing without Vinicius can always show good results.  But apart from that, I think Madrid is increasingly determined to prepare to face Man City in the Champions League. Bellingham did not score in today match but he contributed an assist for Rodrygo second goal. Brahim Diaz is becoming more consistent day by day and will play a very important role if he continues to maintain his performance in the future. Bilbao like it or not, their position is threatened and it cannot be avoided that Atletico Madrid will definitely steal 4th place in the standings, because today they will visit Villareal headquarters and their target is 3 full points. Madrid point difference will not be disturbing, Barcelona only needs to maintain the runner up position.

[rendravolt]

Rodrygo returned with a brace and in the match against Bilbao he was also voted MVP of the match. It's great to see him in his natural position as LWF and I think he's much more comfortable on that side. For almost a season we saw him only as a striker or sometimes as a RWF and of course it was all because of the strategy that Ancelotti wanted. Moreover, his compatriot from Brazil, Vinicius, had already occupied the LWF position, so he had to give in if he wanted to continue in the starting line up.

Apart from that, he has also recorded 15 goals and 8 assists this season and don't forget the role of Brahim Diaz and Jude Bellingham who provided assists for Rodrygo's two beautiful goals in last night's match. The additional full points widened Real Madrid's distance from Barcelona to 8 points. Don't forget that in the final minutes we also saw Eder Militao's debut this season after being absent for 7 months due to an ACL injury.

Before the yesterday match between Real and Athletic Bilbao, I thought that the only position that Rodrygo can perfectly play well was in the right flank of the attack but little did I know that young Brazilian can actually fit in in the left flank of Real Madrid attack - a position that's always played by Vinicius Jr. Rodrygo without doubt have proven that he's one of the best players of his age at the moment and considering the fact that Real Madrid also have many other young stars with great potentials like that are similar to that of Vinicius Jr, I think it'll be very difficult to play for any club to play against Real Madrid in the nearest future.
Like you rightly say, Real Madrid will face Pep Guardiola's Manchester City in the quarter finals of the UEFA Champions League competition and considering the form of the Spanish La Liga leaders at the moment, i think they stand a better chance of eliminating Manchester City from thd competition.

[Inwestour]

Girona was able to put a good performance on that match that was why they manage to win the match, although what happen was that real Betis is a club that understand how Girona team plays that's why they gave Girona a hard time but they manage to score on the 36 minutes and because of how consistent real Betis is they had to equalize the game before they could go for halftime, although Girona was very lucky on that penalty because if they had not giving the penalty real Betis would have been leading them on the first half and probably they would have end up playing draw, well congratulations to Girona team because they are back to compete with Barcelona on the second position.

Girona achieves good results when Dovbyk can show a good game, after playing in the national team he returned to Girona with new strength, and scoring a double helped Girona beat the unyielding Betis, but this did not help them, Barcelona is still ahead of them. These two goals helped Dovbik return to the scoring race and now he has the same number of goals with Bellingham, 16 goals each.

Bilbao lost to Real Madrid, which was expected, and now Atletico can take advantage of this and return to the top 4, which would be a very important step for them. Villarreal is a very difficult opponent at home, but Atletico really needs a win, I hope Semione can achieve victory today.

[Solokan]

The way Real Madrid are currently progressing in the La Liga points table, we can be sure that they will be champions this season. Real Madrid's strong pursuit of the title means they are sure to win this season and are still far ahead of Girona and Barcelona. Maybe Barcelona will never overtake Real Madrid this season as they are already far ahead in the points table. Real Madrid are likely to win the title this season, and Barcelona may not be able to compete with Madrid.

Yes, it looks like Madrid's dream could potentially come true this season and last season Madrid, which managed to achieve runner up position, now Madrid has the potential to become champion this season.

Now Madrid has a difference of 8 points with Barcelona, ​​of course it will be difficult for Xavi's troops to shift Madrid's position because the difference of 8 points is of course a large number and Madrid has a difference of 10 points with Girona, of course this will make Ancelotti's troops confident of winning.

But of course we don't know what the future holds because of course there are still 8 matches remaining to be completed and of course there is still a chance for Barcelona to become champions even though hopes are slim. but seeing Real Madrid's last match against Bilbao with a score of 2-0, of course that is clear proof that Madrid has a good performance and of course their strength is very strong.

and the next match in Laliga Madrid will be against Mallorca and I think Madrid will easily beat Mallorca. But of course Mallorca's last match against Valencia with a score of 0-0 should be a concern for Ancelotti because it looks like Mallorca cannot be taken lightly and it is possible that Mallorca will draw against Madrid. But personally, in that match, I would bet on Real Madrid winning.

[Alpha Marine]

For now we don't know what Barcelona's plan for the following season because we know they have financial problems that can hamper their plans. On the other hand, Real Madrid is getting closer to Mbappe rumors and if this rumor is true, there is no way for Barcelona to compete with Real Madrid this means that Barcelona is really in a complicated situation, what do you think will be done by Barcelona? Some people say Barcelona can rely on local talents from the academy but I think it takes a long time it even takes 3-4 seasons to increase it and there is no guarantee that it will work, another solution Barcelona must immediately get another loan if possible and release Lewandowski of course.

Barcelona just need a few signings and they're good. The team is not as bad as people make it seem. Their financial crisis is also not as bad as the media makes it seem. Look at two seasons ago when media houses were saying they'd go into bankruptcy, they signed Lewandoski, Raphinha, and Kounde. Last season they got Gundugan, Felix, and Cancelo.
If you've been following La Liga as a neutral fan, you'll see that Madrid is above Barcelona not because Madrid played exceptionally better, but because Barcelona has suffered injuries at very crucial moments and they don't have quality squad depth to fill in for injured players.

The most important thing Barcelona can do is hire the right manager if Xavi is truly leaving. To me, that's the single most important thing. They just need a DM, a RW, and a LW that can dribble, fast, score goals, and create chances then they're good.
It doesn't matter if Madrid signs Mbappe, that's what Madrid does, that's who they are, they always sign the best players in the world yet Barca still competes with them. Makes these 3 signings and gets a good manager then Barcelona will be ready for next season.

[Jody.Drummer]

Rodrygo returned with a brace and in the match against Bilbao he was also voted MVP of the match. It's great to see him in his natural position as LWF and I think he's much more comfortable on that side.

Moreover, his compatriot from Brazil, Vinicius, had already occupied the LWF position, so he had to give in if he wanted to continue in the starting line up.

The additional full points widened Real Madrid's distance from Barcelona to 8 points. Don't forget that in the final minutes we also saw Eder Militao's debut this season after being absent for 7 months due to an ACL injury.

Ancelotti trusts Vinicius more to occupy the LWF position, or there is something else because Rodrygo can be more flexible and he can also play in other positions apart from this position. But again, this is the strategy that the coach wants with all the considerations he has and indeed when Vini was placed in that position and had to replace Rodrygo, the fact was that he could also provide something good.

Real Madrid is very lucky because they have many players they can rely on even though the main players cannot play. That is very good capital for them in the future and what they have been doing so far is for their future by regenerating a lot of their players with young players with great potential.

I think in just a while they will really mature. It's true that they are currently very good, but in my opinion they will be even more terrible when they reach a very mature age as football players. They can really prepare for the future of their club well, and this is something that all clubs should do, because they will not always have senior players who will leave them sooner or later.

Girona achieves good results when Dovbyk can show a good game, after playing in the national team he returned to Girona with new strength, and scoring a double helped Girona beat the unyielding Betis, but this did not help them, Barcelona is still ahead of them. These two goals helped Dovbik return to the scoring race and now he has the same number of goals with Bellingham, 16 goals each.

Bilbao lost to Real Madrid, which was expected, and now Atletico can take advantage of this and return to the top 4, which would be a very important step for them. Villarreal is a very difficult opponent at home, but Atletico really needs a win, I hope Semione can achieve victory today.

Girona again showed signs of revival to return to consistency in the remaining matches this season, the victory over Real Betis confirmed their position in the top four of the standings, although the additional 3 points could not help them overtake Barcelona position in second place. This victory really helped the confidence of the players and everyone involved in the club, because Girona had run out of steam and had difficulty winning in the last few matches. If Girona finished in 3rd place in the standings, in my opinion that would also be worthy of appreciation, because they were able to appear impressive this season.

Meanwhile, regarding the opportunity for Atletico Madrid to return to the top four, this opportunity is now very open thanks to Real Madrid beating Atletic Bilbao yesterday. In my opinion, Diego Simeone squad will be able to secure full points when they visit Villarreal headquarters, because on paper Atletico Madrid has better squad depth. Diego Simeone will try to break the bad trend of his team because in the last two matches Atletico Madrid lost, this is the right momentum to create a positive trend again. It is clear that Atletico Madrid will have a little difficulty beating Villarreal, because their opponents have been performing well recently.

[QueenVera]

Congratulations to Barcelona to embraced another three points from their opponent, and it has made them to used long gap to gap Girona and other teams which it will be difficult for them to recover. Now that Barcelona has fight a good fight in this season to come up to this current position in the la Liga league table, I believe Real Madrid need to win their match today so that they will not create pressure on them when they lose to their opponent. If you watch want Barcelona play in the la Liga league match to defeated  Las palmas 1-0, you will know that there will not be opportunity for them to defeat PSG in the champion league because PSG manager will going to use their talented players to start the match so that they will embrace early opportunity to  score goals that will bring victory to PSG.

Well Barcelona have now used this win to give a statement on their readiness for the UCL match against PSG and yes this match was a big boost for them befriend the match and as such, you can begin to have some sort of confidence in them being able to get something off PSG. Barcelona victory now puts them 2nd on the log though they won’t be able to compete with Real Madrid for the league because Real are a very better team than Barcelona.

 ⁠Though the win was just a lone goal from Ralphina, you can tell how much of opportunities they missed in that match but still you can’t just write them off for the match with PSG. I feel they’ll be able to give PSG some worries to an extent and this match will be one match to be on the lookout for this week.

 Yes the PSG squad is quite a force especially with the presence of Kylian but that alone can’t make you write off this Barca team as they have really shown great signs of improvement under Xavi though their financial constraints is a big issue to them. Psg and Barca are kind of balanced with psg main advantage being on Kylian’s pace with the ball.

 ⁠The match will not be a borough one though but I think the team who gives his all will win  as that’s the criteria and I’m glad both teams have the experience to win. Though I don’t think any is yet a contender for the title.

[Velvet78]

Rodrygo returned with a brace and in the match against Bilbao he was also voted MVP of the match.

I have also watched Rodrygo's goals and both of them were really great. Especially the first one is like a classic Rodrygo goal. He is really good at this kind of finesse shots.  

There is a chance for Rodrygo to receive an offer by Manchester City this summer according to rumours. I don't feel like Ancelotti would like to see him leaving. He must have really good plans for him in his time period with Real Madrid. The offer would surely be huge but Rodrygo has already started to be an important player for the team.

Don't forget that in the final minutes we also saw Eder Militao's debut this season after being absent for 7 months due to an ACL injury.

Finally Militao is back! This is great news for Real Madrid while they have a matchup against Manchester City in the Champions League. They really need their defense to be as strong as possible before facing them. I don't know whether we would see him in the starting lineup in the first leg though but I would like to see him reaching full match fitness until then.
