La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[kawetsriyanto]

The El Clasico match is a prestigious match, so even though both teams are focused on other matches, for the El Clasico match both teams will give everything regardless of other motivations for both teams.

Indeed. El Clasico is always about the pride, winning the match is something prestigious.
Even if Real Madrid and Barcelona must focus on UCL matches, they must still prepare anything for the El Clasico match with their best. Each of them must target to win the El Clasico, even if Real Madrid has been secure in the 1st place.

Yep. Winning El Clasico will give another motivation for the next matches. It probably bring good influences to the whole team for the winner of El Clasico.

For this season I think there is no longer any possibility for Barcelona to compete for the title, Real Madrid is very strong and consistent and Barcelona is very far behind now so it is no longer possible for them.

Agree. The point gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona is 8 points. It is not a small point gap, so Barcelona will be quite difficult to overtake Real Madrid in the top of La Liga standings. I guess the realistic goal for Barcelona is to finish this season as a runner-up.

However, if you pay attention to the head to head scores for El Casico matches, at least Real Madrid and Barcelona sometimes manage to win with big scores. Thus, I think the final result is the same as other matches because after all, if this El Clasico match really has high prestige then of course they will not be willing to lose by a big score in the El Clasico match. Moreover, if one of them has an important match in the Champions League but at the same time their position is secure at the top of the standings, then of course that team will still prioritize making better preparations for match in the Champions League. So yes, I think El Classico doesn't really have top priority, although indeed, prestige will always be there, but they will also still take into account the situation and conditions that occur.

[temple]

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.

Real Madrid has already won the La Liga and knows who will catch them anymore, they are focusing on the Champions League now against Manchester City, they won't stress any of their players in the league match anymore because they have a tough game to play with Manchester City and they won't like to lose against them anymore, and I believe Ancelotti will do anything possible to get the winning match at home before going to the Etihad for the second leg, let see if Barcelona will finish in second place. Girona will not be able to overcome them because Xavi is back in form and they won't try to lose any point in the league to make Girona top them in the second place in the league table, if Barcelona will lose points now I think thing they face each other with Real Madrid for the second leg for the el classico.

Well it is not like they can lean back just yet and let the rest of the season go its way. They will still need to put in a lot of effort to stay at the top, but I would still describe their situation as relatively relaxed. I think one turning point could be the game against Barcelona, but if they make sure to not lose that game then the rest of the season will be more or less easy for them. Losing the game against Barcelona could raise the pressure a bit as it is a five points advantage then, which is definitely more dangerous than the comfortable eight points they now have over Barcelona.

In fact, Mallorca is not a very strong team. However, they are also not a club that can be underestimated. They sometimes competed very impressively, and they even managed to enter the Copa del Rey final. They are quite strong at the back, so Real Madrid also has to do more to beat them.

Mallorca is not a team to be underestimated, they can defend well and score goals with counter-attacks or set pieces. I watched some of their matches, but on paper Real Madrid is the team that is better prepared to win based on its quality.

That's why I said, Mallorca cannot be underestimated and so on.
This will still be a challenge for Real Madrid to be able to optimize their performance. This match will take place after Real Madrid has had a big match with Man City. This will certainly also determine the performance and mental health of Real Madrid players in the match against Mallorca after the UCL. Hopefully, everything will be fine and it won't be too affected by the UCL results. So, Real Madrid can truly compete optimally without heavy burdens.

In fact, Mallorca is not a very strong team. However, they are also not a club that can be underestimated. They sometimes competed very impressively, and they even managed to enter the Copa del Rey final. T............

Exactly, Mallorca is already in fifteenth position on the standings which is good and in La Liga this season they managed to get 6 wins and 13 draws which is quite a good result. The opponents they face are very tough therefore Mallorca must continue to improve their skills them, at least they already have experience competing with great teams who are currently in the top five of La Liga.

Indeed. Even though they are a middle to lower club, they are a club that needs to be taken into account. especially if we look at the various matches they have had recently, and how they managed to reach the Copa del Rey final, that is a very excellent achievement for a club like Mallorca at this time.

Losing the game against Barcelona could raise the pressure a bit as it is a five points advantage then, which is definitely more dangerous than the comfortable eight points they now have over Barcelona.

The gap of 8-points with 8 remaining match provides possibility to be overtaken by Barcelona. The Champions League game may make them share focus for a while, but that's not the reason for them to throw the league game away. Madrid still need to win six games, mathematically to win the title. If the points gap get closer, the el clasico game can a turning point where Barcelona can open up their chance to chase the leading position.

I don't think it's time for Madrid to relax remembering el clasico game can create opportunity to turn things around. Barcelona having their full force has made them back in-form. Things can deliver more pressure if Madrid happens to drop points, and that's not ideal situation to have in the ending phase of the season.

[Salahmu]

Barcelona still have champions league games ahead to play and that too is actually going to take a whole lot from them because the competition and pressure from there is way too much more than that which they do get from the la Liga so that will actually imply that they get to maintain their form a d improve even better if they will be able to scale through to the next point of the champions league.

Is a difficult match for Barcelona because there next champions League match will be against PSG and we all understand the capacity of PSG, so in as much as Barcelona has beginning to regain performance doesn't mean that they have chance against PSG because the kind of quality players PSG has now Barcelona can never be compared with them, so with the performance of PSG on this season there is a good possibility that they would win Barcelona.

So for now I don't think Barcelona performance is good enough to compete on the champions League because unlike every other leagues champions League is a league that has all the strong teams so it takes a club that's very consistent in performance to succeed, so considering Barcelona performance they are not too ready for champions League, perhaps maybe from next season after they have realized there lapses.

Yes, sometimes El Clasico can have big scores but mostly the El Clasico match only resulted with less of goals. Both Real Madrid and Barcelona will play very carefully in the El Clasico, it makes there is no many goals. However, sometimes the match can be quite open, so both team could score many goals. But for the next El Clasico, I think the match won't end up with many goals. Real Madrid and Barcelona still have important match in UCL. They must try to play safely, they don't want to risk their players. Moreover, the current position of Real Madrid looks difficult to catch by Barcelona. So, they don't want to be too motivated to get 3 points.

You're right. This time El Clasico won't be the priority for both Real Madrid and Barcelona. They must more focus on UCL match, they have the same chance to win the trophy there. In my own view, the next El Clasico won't be very interested, they probably prefer to play more defensive. They may target to get a draw result.

Real Madrid have always been the top team and they've emerged as top winner this season, always grabbing significant points and never backing down from excellent performances. We're clearly watching the team's that will make up for the UEFA Champions League and also the ones that will settle for lesser results this season. Barcelona bounce back and they're currently in the top four while Girona and Atletico Madrid will go for the 3rd and 4th position, really one of the entertaining La Liga competitive race this season.

[iBaba]

The El Clasico match is a prestigious match, so even though both teams are focused on other matches, for the El Clasico match both teams will give everything regardless of other motivations for both teams.
For this season I think there is no longer any possibility for Barcelona to compete for the title, Real Madrid is very strong and consistent and Barcelona is very far behind now so it is no longer possible for them.

El Clasico remains one of the most bigges,  tough and interesting games to watch as far as football club rivalry is concerned between two major clubs. And this has remained like that since from the inception, which has also kept both clubs at their feet in performance, because they must find a way to keep this long-standing competition between themselves. Recently, Barcelona has not been performing as Real Madrid has done, and they also need to work hard so that they can battle the first position together.

The first meeting was in 1902, where FC Barcelona won three goals over Real Madrid, which got one. And the last meeting was early this year, in January, where Real Madrid got four goals ahead of Barcelona in the last contest. The next will be sometimes a couple of days to come, and we need to see who is able to win over each other again in this particular contest that is coming soon.

Speaking about El Classico in the last 5 meeting it looks very interesting because final scores always be ended with 3 goals total or more so from these records we can see for next El Classico on April 22 potentially it will ended with big scores again because whether it Barcelona and Real Madrid always be displaying attacking style but indeed regardless Laliga title race El Classico always be important for Real Madrid or Barcelona fans because they do not want to lost and i know both teams has tight schedules because they have to playing at Champion league especially Real Madrid that they have hard match against Manchester City

But in my opinion Barcelona and Real Madrid still give their priority for El Classico match and if we see from race title if Real Madrid can win from Barcelona then they will have 11 points above to Barcelona so if Real Madrid can able to collect 3 points from this match then they can lock first place early and became an the champion of Laliga and during this season both teams has been met twice at Spanish Super Cup and Laliga and Real Madrid can win all of those matches and this match will be held at Santiago Bernabéu and Real Madrid have good chances to win this match

If Barcelona succeeds in securing full points in the EL Clasico match in Week 32, then Xavi fleet could have reopened the opportunity to compete for the La Liga trophy. Because the two teams will be 5 points apart, provided that next week either Barcelona or Madrid can secure full points. In my opinion, next week the two teams will have an easy match, and their chances of getting an additional 3 points are quite high.

However, I think Madrid chances of winning the match El Clasico are higher than Barcelona, especially since Ancelotti fleet will act as hosts at the Santiago Bernabeu. The El Clasico match is the final test for Madrid to win the La Liga trophy, and if we look at the reputation and consistency between the two teams, Madrid is slightly better than Barcelona at the moment.

Bacelona is 8 points behind Madrid at the moment, and with the remaining La Liga matches now numbering 8 games, there are many possibilities that could happen in the future. However, looking at the existing facts, I am sure that Madrid will be able to sweep all the remaining matches in the future and Barcelona will most likely finish in runnerup position in the standings.

Their performance sef most times has been such thst they are deserving of the position they are at the top of the league table a d i would say that they have  done really well so farr his season such thst they are very deserving of the league title by the end of the season too aswell but then Barcelona has been really inconsistent and it has cost them a whole lot too aswell so i don't think they will be able to win the league title this season.

Barcelona hasn't been in their best form and the set back of Barcelona started after they failed to win one of the El classico this season after which their performance now continued in a down ward experience up until this moment a d now they are literally struggling with average teams in the league buy then they have been able to actually now get back some little form which has managed them to getting to the second position on the table with 67 points as against the ones that Madrid has got ahead of them with 75 points, an eighth points difference between them both.

This alone is a reason to think why Barcelona may not be able to win Are Madrid to claim the trophy this season because the point difference is just too much and they have got only buy few games before the end of the season and there are no guarantee that Barcelona is going to win all of their next games rill the end neither is Madrid going to loose all of it will the end too aswell so they both of them may just be at thst position till the end of the league.

Even if the last 5 El Clasico matches ended with many goals, it doesn't guarantee the next El Clasico to have many goals as well. The next El Clasico won't impact very significant on the position of Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga standings. I think only Barcelona which may play all out because 3 points needed to stay in 2nd place. Barcelona may do extra efforts but Real Madrid doesn't want to be defeated at home. Moreover, there will be tough matches in UCL, too. Both Barcelona and Real Madrid must keep the fitness of their players to be in a good condition for the UCL matches. Considering this, Barcelona and Real Madrid look to not play very aggressively.

But in my opinion Barcelona and Real Madrid still give their priority for El Classico match and if we see from race title if Real Madrid can win from Barcelona then they will have 11 points above to Barcelona so if Real Madrid can able to collect 3 points from this match then they can lock first place early and became an the champion of Laliga and during this season both teams has been met twice at Spanish Super Cup and Laliga and Real Madrid can win all of those matches and this match will be held at Santiago Bernabéu and Real Madrid have good chances to win this match

I don't think Barcelona is capable to join the race of the title anymore. Even if Barcelona wins the match, they won't be easily to catch Real Madrid because the point gap is quite large. Real Madrid is leading with good points, Barcelona probably only thinks to finish the season above Girona and Atletico Madrid.

Barcelona has some other games before the El Clasico match and some games they are going to have are hard games. For example, Barcelona should play against Cadiz and PSG before playing against Real Madrid and regarding these two games, I think if Barcelona manages to eat PSG in the Champions League they will have a much better atmosphere in the team to beat Real Madrid because currently, the situation for Rela Madrid is a little bit better than Barcelona. However, Real Madrid is also getting ready for the game against Manchester City which is going to be a hard and interesting match for them.
I think there is still enough time to think and predict this match and since we are not close yet predicting this match cannot be right with the current information we have.

[TopT3ns]

Agree. The point gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona is 8 points. It is not a small point gap, so Barcelona will be quite difficult to overtake Real Madrid in the top of La Liga standings. I guess the realistic goal for Barcelona is to finish this season as a runner-up.

A difference of that many points means that Barcelona must at least win three matches. If they cannot win, then Barcelona will definitely not be able to take first place again. Real Madrid will definitely not let them lose in every match they face. trying to be the winner. Maybe Barcelona will let Real Madrid get their victory this season. I hope Barcelona can bounce back again next season.

[Marykeller]

Indeed, currently Girona is in third place with a difference of two points from Barcelona in second place in the standings. However, Girona's journey this season has been truly sensational and surprised the top La Liga teams at the start of the season, they were able to stay at the top of the standings for a long time, even though in the end they lost concentration in several matches, especially when they lost to Real Madrid.

However, Girona's current achievements are commendable, they have made the league even more interesting and of course next season they will play in the Champions League with 8 matches remaining. I think they can maintain their top four ranking until the end of the season. Girona deserve their current achievements because they are playing very, very well and effectively.

Girona indeed has been the surprise package of the season in Laliga this season. I had wished they won the league to interrupt the monopoly stronghold of winning in Spain between Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid
For me, they have already exceeded expectations and I'm quite sure they will play in the Champions League next season. Even if they don't win the league,  they have successfully introduced themselves as a force to reckon with in the Laliga top tier. Good luck to them.

Agree. The point gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona is 8 points. It is not a small point gap, so Barcelona will be quite difficult to overtake Real Madrid in the top of La Liga standings. I guess the realistic goal for Barcelona is to finish this season as a runner-up.

The season does not end and Barcelona with their pride and pressure from financial crisis, will try best to win La Liga even they are smart enough to know their chance is not high. It is a difficult task for Barcelona but they will not give up till a match day Real Madrid have enough points and difference against Barcelona to be the league champion.

A difference of that many points means that Barcelona must at least win three matches. If they cannot win, then Barcelona will definitely not be able to take first place again. Real Madrid will definitely not let them lose in every match they face. trying to be the winner. Maybe Barcelona will let Real Madrid get their victory this season. I hope Barcelona can bounce back again next season.

These are very hard conditions that must come from both Barcelona and Real Madrid. Each of two conditions is already difficult to happen so a combination of these conditions, make it very hard to happen.

Barcelona will likely spend most of their resources and focus on Champions League because at highest level, in direct matches, everything can happen and Barcelona can hope to go to semi final or even final match in Champions League. Going farther there will help Barcelona to receive more money from UEFA.

Girona indeed has been the surprise package of the season in Laliga this season. I had wished they won the league to interrupt the monopoly stronghold of winning in Spain between Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid
For me, they have already exceeded expectations and I'm quite sure they will play in the Champions League next season. Even if they don't win the league,  they have successfully introduced themselves as a force to reckon with in the Laliga top tier. Good luck to them.

Girona already did massively impression in La Liga through this season and even they can not win La Liga, the impression they made in this season will be recorded in history of their club and La Liga.

They are fighting and counting down match by match to celebrate a first season in their club history, they can end in top four and will be eligible for Champions League 2024 - 2025. They are making history and joining Champions League, if they succeed, will help their club finance a lot.

It's true that Laliga isn't over yet, but Girona's presence in the top four surprised us. At the start of the season, Girona even topped the standings and competed closely with Real Madrid, and surprisingly managed to beat Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. but unfortunately they are not strong enough to beat Real Madrid, however this is a good start for Girona to become a strong team next season by bringing in star players.

Girona's current success is due to the effectiveness of the people placed by the club owner according to their portions, intelligence in selecting players, not messing around and carrying out effective player transfers which means it is in the process rather than having to buy expensive players. That's what I've seen at Girona so far. . Girona's next match will face Atletico Madrid, this is an important match for both teams, for Girona this victory is to strengthen third position, for Atletico Madrid this victory is to close the gap with Girona. However, my prediction is that this match will end in a draw.

[Hirose UK]

At the moment, Real Madrid's odds of winning the title are listed as 1.02, Barcelona's as 21. There can be no talk of any chances for Barcelona. The good news is that this game will take place after the 1/4 Champions League games. No matter how these games go, the clubs will be able to focus on the clasico. I think that if the Real - Barcelona game had taken place before the decisive game in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, then the clubs would not have tried at all in this game.

The El Clasico match is a prestigious match, so even though both teams are focused on other matches, for the El Clasico match both teams will give everything regardless of other motivations for both teams.
For this season I think there is no longer any possibility for Barcelona to compete for the title, Real Madrid is very strong and consistent and Barcelona is very far behind now so it is no longer possible for them.

El Clasico will happen again in Week 32 and whoever wins this match will still be Real Madrid who will become La Liga champions, the difference between the two is 8 points and Barcelona has no chance of beating Real Madrid.
For now, Real Madrid and Barcelona both have important matches in the UCL because they both have to undergo the quarter-finals and that will not affect anything, especially the results for La Liga.
If there is chance, it will only happen next season, but Barcelona must have stable performance from the start and achieve more wins so that points can be consistently obtained.
But for next season Real Madrid will have additional players like Mbappe if the agreement can actually be officially signed and this could be problem for Barcelona because Real Madrid is of course much stronger.
It shame that Barcelona condition previously experienced decline in performance, resulting in them having to lose the opportunity to become strong candidate for the La Liga title this season.

[poodle63]

Indeed, currently Girona is in third place with a difference of two points from Barcelona in second place in the standings. However, Girona's journey this season has been truly sensational and surprised the top La Liga teams at the start of the season, they were able to stay at the top of the standings for a long time, even though in the end they lost concentration in several matches, especially when they lost to Real Madrid.

Girona will have a tough match soon and winning the game against atletico madrid will be obviously helping girona to lock UCL spot for the next season. This gonna be a very important match for girona considering the fact that if clubs is trying so hard to go to the UCL.
NO trophy and no problem. As long as michel can still make his club to qualify for the UCL and that's more than enough. IMO, UCL spot has become the main target of him this season.
Girona is not being favored to win in the second leg of match between these clubs. I can understand it since it will be away game for girona. I think atl madrid may take three points as revenge for girona from the result of first leg.
