La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Weawant]

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.

I have kept looking forward to a day Barcelona would come up with the fact that their financial crisis is over and they are now stable enough to run the team and go ahead to acquire players as much as they can and even getting a top coach or been able to maintain that which they have already while providing him with all he will be needing to be able to run the team well and produce results for the team.

I checked the richest team rankings few weeks back and I found out that Barcelona isn't even that broke so I wonder what exactly has been the reason for all the talks of them going through several financial crisis and all that on the media, I had taught they would be able to utilize that which they have even if they so claim the financial crisis don't they hope to get out of it some day by putting in the necessary effort needed to helping them get pass this stage so they can go ahead to signing new players and aswell get to give the team a New and better form that will help them win trophies and come back to glory days again.

Barcelona actually isn't in a very bad shape when you take out some time to examine their dept currently, they have got a form that I think is very nice and their depth aswell is such that they can be able to dominate the la Liga if headed by a good coach who's provided with all that he's wanted to be able to carry out his duties well and deliver the team but then they keep capitalizing on the financial strength of the team to limit the teams ability.

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.

Atletico Madrid just had a 0-3 loss against Barcelona right at home, and with the above result, Atletico Madrid is paying the price for its bad performance, which is being knocked out of the top 4 of La Liga. Of course, the race is still under control when Atletico Madrid is only 1 point behind Bilbao. Since the 2012/13 season until now, Atletico has never been outside the final Top 3 in the national championship. But this season, it is unknown whether there will be a surprising result. As for Villarreal, coach Marcelino Toral helped Villarreal's revival. Villarreal has improved significantly compared to the beginning of the tournament.
It is the contrasting performance of both that makes Atletico much underestimated. With home field advantage, I think it's likely that Villarreal will go from a draw to a win.

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.

Well at least it was enough for an introduction when he came on in the last 2 minutes before the game was over and it would have been great to see Madrid's appreciation for Militao who hasn't gotten much attention this season due to a long injury layoff so it was a good debut I guess.

As for the match, it lived up to expectations because in the end Madrid are still too strong for La Liga clubs even for dark horses like Bilbao.
Without Vini in the squad it didn't seem to be a limitation for Madrid as their dominance was very good with a fairly unique formation of 4-2-2-2 being used by Madrid in this match.

Rodrygo can always be the answer when there is no Vini because in this match especially with the brace he did of course it was very good for Rodrygo.

Well it will be difficult for Atletico Madrid to get a win out of this game as they are playing away from home and in a difficult stadium against Villareal where their strongest hub is when they play at home.Atletico Madrid needs desperately to win against whoever opponent and they will go all in during tonight match as their only option to have a chance to be in control of being in that 4th place.If they lose again tonight then most likely they need to say good bye to playing in the Champions League as Athletic Bilbao is in a perfect form so far and I think they can keep up with good results to be playing again in Champions League after so long.

Before the international break, Atletico Madrid hosted Barcelona in the Spanish La Liga but the result of that game was shocking to many people who had initially predicted a win for the home team. Atletico Madrid were not just totally outclassed in that game but they were stopped from scoring in the game as well as finishing the game with 10-man. Atletico Madrid who started the season on a very good note have been consistently inconsistent in the league this season and that's why they're currently no where near the teams that are considered as strong contenders for the Spanish La Liga title this season.
Tonight, they travel to Villarreal to play against them in a game they must win to return back to the top four of the league table. In my own opinion, I think it'll be a difficult game because while Atletico Madrid will be fighting for a win that'll see them overtake Athletic Bilbao who lost yesterday at Real Madrid, Villarreal will be playing to avoid a home defeat to Diego Simeone's men. If I'm to stake on that game, I'll simply go for the option of "both teams to score" because I think the two teams are definitely going to find the back of the net in that game

The defeat to Barcelona in the previous week was painful enough for Atletico Madrid to save their position which is currently fighting for a place in the Champions League next season, but fortunately for them the opportunity is now open again after Madrid managed to beat Bilbao yesterday and made the difference in points between Bilbao and Atletico become 1 point away, so today's match will be a must-win match for Atletico Madrid if they want to regain control Top 4 position in La Liga and at the same time eliminated Bilbao to rank 5th.

I think the defeats to Barcelona and Cadiz should be a lesson for Simeone's squad to be able to perform even better in today's game and I hope they do not make the same mistake when facing Villareal, Villareal who are ranked 10th in the La Liga standings not be underestimated, because Villareal is currently in a fairly consistent condition after successfully maintaining 9 matches unbeaten with 4 consecutive wins,  I think the match will be very exciting, because Atletico, who are looking for revenge, will face Villareal, who are unbeaten in La Liga for 9 last weeks.

[Frankolala]

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.

I don't think that Rodrigo would go to Manchester City, when he is already playing in the best club in the world. It is every players dream to play for Real Madrid, and Rodrigo have achieved this very early. I will say that it is too early for him to start thinking of leaving Real Madrid, because his future would be very bright with Real Madrid as he would achieve a lot of trophies than if he goes to Manchester city.

He is becoming a goal machine with time, and can bring out the best in him with the help of his team mates. It is good to see that Real Madrid goal scorer is not a job for only one player or two. If not the absence of Vinicius would have affected their performance yesterday. Ancelotti is such a great coach.

[Jossque]

Celta Vigo hosted Vallecano at home.We know that both teams are just above the relegation zone and both teams need a win but neither team played very effectively.Celta Vigo finished the game without a shot on target.
Girona's championship race has lost points in the last few weeks and now the points difference has widened, so I think they are now far behind in terms of being champions.The championship race was neck and neck before they lost to Real Madrid and now we can easily say that Real Madrid will be the champions.We can say that it was a good match against Real Betis.2 Both teams have different goals, of course, but for Real Betis it would have been more meaningful to win this match.Betis are competing to finish the season in the top 7 and the points difference with their closest rival is 1.Valencia will be ahead of them if they win their missing match.

If not the absence of Vinicius would have affected their performance yesterday. Ancelotti is such a great coach.

Rodrygo's career at Real Madrid has been quite good at his young age, he has a fairly high salary and is in the best top class team. Rodrygo shouldn't do anything potentially detrimental.
Manchester City's current strength is no longer what it used to be. If we look at Real Madrid, they are currently in a good position and are still in the process of becoming better than before. Until now they are in first place on the standings in the La Liga competition. The Real Madrid coach keeps talented players like this in order to continue to give their best contribution to Real Madrid. If we want to remember the past, it is very difficult to find a better player than him.

[TelolettOm]

........
Rodrygo was really awesome this time, managing to contribute goals from the early minutes until the end. Real Madrid continued to lead. 2 goals from Rodrygo this time, makes it even more convincing that his performance is getting much better.

............
Rodrygo was clearly good in this match, he was the best player in this match with the two goals he scored. Without Vinicius, Rodrygo lights up.

I don't know if this was just a coincidence or he just had more chances to do it, but indeed, this time, he did it quite differently, we could say, he shined up more this time. Especially with his opener goal coming into the top corner, that's a great decision. He was able to utilize the assist given by Diaz very well. In fact, indeed, he might have been in a less favorable position at that time.

Atletico Madrid is indeed experiencing a major downturn in La Liga currently. Losing two matches in a row must have hit them hard, especially since the defeat against Cadiz that was very surprising, and also against Barcelona which put quite a pressure on their prestige. And this time, it's just a matter of how they can optimize their performance so they can break the chain of defeat. The only thing left for the club to do is play Villarreal in La Liga this time, to close this week's game. Because after that, they will also face quite a tough opponent, Girona. This is quite a pressing blow for Atletico Madrid, so that they had to try even more optimally.

[Furious 7]

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.

I don't think this is a revival moment for Girona because even though they got 3 points back in this match, the situation is still the same where they are still struggling to maintain consistency as before.
Indeed, this week's victory still ended up being a good thing because at least with the 3 points they got, they were still able to make a competition with Barcelona for second place even though they had to wait until the last minute before Cristhian Stuani finally managed to record their winner but even so I think it still cannot be a guarantee that Girona will return to the mode they did at the beginning of the season because their performance is still erratic.

But on the other hand in this case I will also still praise what Girona did, especially their players where in this match Dovbyk scored a Brace which made him currently revive the top scorer competition where there are now 3 players who are in the top scorer position with the same goal acquisition where Jude, Dovbyk and Ante Budimir scored 16 goals followed by Borja with 15 goals and Morata where he scored 14 goals.
It's definitely a good situation towards the end of the season although the trophy race isn't as exciting but the top scorer race is still a hot one.

[LGD2Business]

Real Madrid didn't allow any surprises when they won yesterday. There is a good match today too. Villarreal, who is in great form, will face Atletico Madrid, who has had a bad run last weeks. Atletico Madrid needs to win to regain fourth place. Winning at El Madrigal is not easy. Villarreal, who scored goals in attack with Sörloth, Moreno and Morales this season, is one of the teams that conceded the most goals in the league. I think there is a high probability that both sides will score. It could be a draw with multiple goals or an Atletico win.

[Polkeins]

~~

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.

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.

This year, as in the past, competition in La Laga is again at an all-time high. In fact 3 teams Girona, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid can still theoretically catch up with Real and become La Liga champions and if Real didn't have such a fantastic season, the competition would be even higher.

For Girona, this is one of the most important wins in recent times and it is all the more important because previously, starting almost from the 2015/2016 season Girona always lost to Betis and their win broke Betis' winning streak. With this win, Girona are back in the race for the top of La Liga.

The competition isn't really that intense as you are describing it. "at an all-time high". How many La Liga seasons have you been following now to draw the conclusion that this is among the most exciting seasons ever?

Real Madrid is leading by a huge distance and the other teams have no chance to get closer to them as Real Madrid's consistency is impressive and they won't play any worse than they are doing. Now where do you see the buzz here? I can't see it. We can talk about Barcelona and whether they or Girona will go for 2nd place in La Liga, but the title is essentially won by Real Madrid already.

Barcelona's defense is way too bad and Atletico Madrid isn't even close to any of the teams. How can Atletico Madrid catch up with Real Madrid when they are 20 points behind and 8 games to go? Are you looking at the wrong season? Better check season 2023/24.

I think there is a high probability that both sides will score. It could be a draw with multiple goals or an Atletico win.

Madrid won easily over Bilbao with a score of 2-0, Rodrygo became man of the match in that match thanks to his two goals. This victory further strengthens Madrid position at the top of the La Liga standings, and still maintains a distance from its closest competitor Barcelona. The 8-point gap is still maintained, and Ancelotti fleet is still unshakable for now.

On the other hand, ATM ambition to get back into the top four of the standings seems to be very difficult, because they will face Villarreal, who currently has a fairly consistent performance. Even though on paper victory tends to be in favor of ATM, it is possible that Villarreal will become a stumbling block for ATM to reach the Champions League zone.

Simeone squad is in unstable form, they have suffered consecutive defeats in their last two matches, so Villarreal can exploit their weakness today. Apart from that, Villarreal has a slight advantage because it will act as host, ATM needs to work hard to be able to bring home 3 points. If ATM again fails to secure full points then Bilbao will be very lucky, I can't imagine if ATM misses out on appearing in the Champions League next season.

It seems that in the first half of this season Villarreal also started bad results but anyway, the reality is that at this moment Villarreal has managed to improve the quality of its performance by getting a winning streak lately. But indeed, Atletico is experiencing a decline in performance or perhaps Atletico is basically experiencing performance instability throughout this season . But even so, at least based on the odds available at this time, it can be seen that Atletico is still quite favored. But indeed, if we consider the results that Villarreal has throughout this season, that Villarreal has good results when playing away . Interesting of course, because it looks like it will be a good odds if we choose Villarreal to win in this match, because based on the current available odds even though Villarreal is playing at home, but Villarreal is also not a favorite team to win.

I think Atletico Madrid kept being under pressure. After failing to fight for title race, they now have to fight for the Champions League spot with being chased by Bilbao and Sociedad. This constant pressure put them having no time to take a breath. in this situation, any loss would out more pressure on them with no time to relax while still having to compete in Champions League.

Simeone has to find a solution for this situation. They will not able to afford another loss, because their chance to finish fourth on the standings could be slimmer and slimmer while they have to compete with two clubs, Bilbao and Sociedad. While the chance to finish fourth position is still on their hand, they have to capitalize maximum points in every remaining games. From now, they will be under pressure to win each remaining game, because of the slow start of the season. They have themself to blame for this situation.

Rodrygo was a player who finished well in that match, especially when he had opportunities. The first goal was quite neat, the second goal was proof of his calmness when finishing it. However, behind all that, Athletic Bilbao's defense actually had problems in this match. They were not very good defensively so it was quite easy for Real Madrid to explore the space between the Bilbao defenders and they scored.

Bilbao's defeat will likely be exploited by Atletico Madrid to push into the Champions League zone. Atletico Madrid must win their away match against Villarreal today and that will put them 2 points ahead of Bilbao. Atletico Madrid has a high probability of winning away games, but recently they have also been less consistent with their performance.

It was an easy win for Real Madrid and it would be more accurate to say for Rodrygo that he was the best player of the match by scoring two goals. Rodrygo proved in this match how well he can play on the left side. In fact, he can flow very easily on the left side and open the game vertically, just like Vinícius júnior. With this win, Real Madrid increased its points to 75.

They are quite comfortable in the league for now.

Barcelona's gap from Real is 7 points and considering that there are still 8 rounds ahead in which the teams can gain theoretically 24 points, Barcelona still have a chance to catch up with Real, and if Barcelona would concede less, the gap would be even smaller, because the difference in goals scored between Real and Barcelona is only 5 goals, but in goals conceded Real is better than Barcelona by 14.

About Atletico really mistaken, I thought that Simeone's team had 65 points like Girona, not 55 as it is now. Here even theoretically everything is very bad, although it has always been usual to see Atletico on 2-3 place, but apparently this season the 3rd place will be a huge success, although again it is possible to win 10 points from Girona, but the chances are not very great, especially after the last victory of Girona.
