La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Hvdv]

The 23/24 season is coming to an end. Madrid have been rumoured with rumours of Mbaape's arrival. In addition, PSG have also been seen to play Mbaape not in full time. It seems that Enrique is starting to adapt to other players. In fact, he started building PSG with young players for long-term progress. I hope Ancelloti doesn't throw away productive players when Mbaape comes. Like Rodrygo, he has been very good this season. Maybe the one who should go is Joselu. He couldn't prove Anceloti's trust.

Joselu contributed less than expected this year. In my opinion, he is a player who does not deserve to be in Real Madrid's main squad. We can say that if Mbappe replaces him, an invincible team will be formed. The lack of a striker for Real Madrid is now visible. When they fix this deficiency, a team that will not be defeated for many years and will win trophies will be formed.

Overall this season, Barcelona's performance is not better than Real Madrid, but now Barcelona's performance has improved a lot compared to the start of the season, making it possible for them to be able to provide fierce resistance and even the El Clasico match is a match for great prestige between the two teams. so that no matter what the conditions, the team will still provide a fierce match here.

El Clasico is also a determinant for Barcelona to still have hope in the competition for the La Liga title this season, even though it is tough, the deciding factor will be the El Clasico match in the next few weeks.

Barcelona must make maximum efforts if they want to reopen the competition to win the La Liga trophy with Madrid, the EL Clasico match will be one of the matches that determines this opportunity. If Barcelona loses, it will be quite difficult for other teams to stop Madrid from winning the trophy, and currently Madrid has a higher chance of securing full points in the El Clasico match.

This season Barcelona has not been able to beat Madrid, that's why we believe that Xavi squad will find it difficult to secure full points, a draw might sound fair for both of them. However, there is one other match before the El Clasico match takes place, where they also cannot underestimate their opponent even though it is relatively easy.

Barcelona performance became better after Xavi announced he would resign from his position, not only in La Liga, now Barcelona is also performing well in the Champions League so they can advance to the quarter finals. What is clear is that El Clasico matches are always interesting to look forward to, and the match will certainly be very fierce.

I don't think Barcelona can do anything anymore to top the laliga league table and win the trophy, Real Madrid have already won the league, and I don't see anything that can stop Madrid from winning the league this season, and it will be very hard if Madrid did not still defeat Barcelona at home, but now that Real Madrid will not put too much effort on the league anymore, they are focusing on the Champions League, and they are planning what to do and eliminate Manchester City in the Madrid does not have any league games till they play the first leg against Manchester City.

You are correct, because I have noticed that since Xavi's resignation at the end of the season, Barcelona has performed exceptionally well. But I believe Xavi wants to leave clubs with a good record so that he can have a better history with Barcelona, and he will do his best to win the title in both the competition league and the Champions League, but it will be difficult, but anything can happen in football, and they will defeat PSG and advance to the next round of the competition to face Dortmund or Athletico Madrid.

El Clasico is also a determinant for Barcelona to still have hope in the competition for the La Liga title this season, even though it is tough, the deciding factor will be the El Clasico match in the next few weeks.

exactly.
Regardless of the ranking position, whether it's a battle for ranking or the title, whether in any league, when it comes to El Classico between Real Madrid and Barceloa it will definitely be high tension. And Xavi really understands this situation, because he was also a player and part of El Classico. In La Liga itself, El Classico will happen in about 2 weeks. This will definitely be a serum even though this will not change their rank position, but this is a matter of prestige too.

Copa del Rey final match is being played between Athletic Bilbao and Mallorca with the first half almost finished.
The surprising part is that Mallorca are leading with 1 goal scored in the 21th minute by Rodriguez although Bilbao are dominating and trying to get more attempts.
I don't think personally that this result will remain in the second half and I assume Bilbao will score at least a goal, well hopefully!

Yes, this was quite surprising because Mallorca took the lead in the first half. However, in the second half, Bilbao was able to equalize the score to 1 - q from a goal by Sancet. Anyway, the final match of the Copa Del Rey turned out to be very interesting. the match was very exciting and tough. Kudos to Mallorca.

I don't think that Ancelotti will throw away Rodrigo, because he is still very young, and have a bright future ahead of him. If you watch out his recent matches, he has being scoring goals, and that alone has shown that he is a quality player, and worth to remain in Real Madrid, so that Madrid will have all good players both in the field and on the bench. I see Ancelotti as a good and experienced coach who knows the value of players, this is why I don't think that Rodrigo is the right player to leave for Mbappe.

Joselu can leave for Mbappe, because I didn't see any much impact that he added to the club this season, since he was on a trial in the team, amd he could not prove himself worthy of staying in Real Madrid. I cannot wait to see Mbappe arrive in Real Madrid, it means that Madrid will have no rival anymore.

What I mean is that Real Madrid has the upper hand to beat Barcelona in the El Classico because Real Madrid is more consistent than Barcelona this season. El Classico will always be interesting to watch in La Liga because Real Madrid and Barcelona are the two strongest clubs in La Liga, and fans will be interested to see who will win between them when they play against each other in La Liga.

Actually so far in this season, Real Madrid has shown most of the times that they will be actually able to displace Barcelona and not give them a chance to win even once as all the times they have met this season it's been real Madrid been able to defeat them despite all their performance so far in the la Liga but then Madrid still stand superior to Barcelona and are ven much more productive than they are.

After the first El classico this season, it felt like Real Madrid got the hack on how to get Barcelona through out this season and after since that meeting, Barcelona has been unable to win Real Madrid and even their performance generally literally dropped a d they have not been have the very good kind of results that could earn them the la Liga like last season. Madrid's consistency this season in the. La Liga is actually no way compared to the performance of Barcelona this season, there are other teams that have been even more consistent than Barcelona in the la Liga this season.

Even with the champions league which i felt would have been a whole lot of distraction to Madrid but then they still performance so well in the champions league and still do same in the la Liga too making them finding a good balance around both league games but Barcelona i don't even know if i would sayt hey are focused on the champions league because actually their performance in the champions league is very good but i still have doubts they would win.

Real Madrid vs Barcelona is one of the tough game to watch this season and I'm never going to mixed my working schedule with key matches because they always comes with busy actions and leading one into the faith of losing gambles. The EL Clasico is closer than expected and Barcelona should prepare themselves for the huge tasks ahead. It will be total off point and embarrassing for Barcelona if they fail to beat Real Madrid.

It is an old rumor, we already many times read about Mbappe news to join Real Madrid.
Well, it may come true because Mbappe is free now, PSG can't force him anymore. His contract with PSG will end this year, he can leave PSG for free. Sure, it seems Mbappe really leaves PSG, Enrique begins to replace his role with another player.

No, Rodrygo and other young attackers will stay in Real Madrid. Mbappe will play as a stiker, Real Madrid only has 1 striker now. So, there is no problem when Mbappe comes to Real Madrid.

There has been a lot of improvement in the Barcelona team, I mean looking back at how they were staggering when the league was new and now you will see a lot of differences in the team now. The El classico is usually a big game for Madrid and Barcelona but why I feel Barcelona is likely to win is because Real Madrid is topping the league with eight points now and they feel so comfortable with the lead as their attention will be more focused on the crucial Champions league match between them and Manchester City so they may see the El classico as of less importance for now and Barcelona needs this winning the most to be able to close the gap a bit so it might go in Barcelona's favour.

[Raflesia]

What you said is true, we should be realistic this season not to compare Barcelona with Madrid, Barcelona's financial situation makes them not as free as they used to be in strengthening the squad, but even so Madrid should not underestimate Barcelona because of course they will also provide a strong fight in the El Classico match later, the rivalry between the two teams has now slackened since Messi and Ronaldo left both teams even though El Classico is still Considered a match full of prestige for both teams but without these two players El Classico no longer presents a hot and controversial match in my opinion, besides that Barcelona' financial problems so far certainly make Madrid can now dominate the victory over Barcelona in recent seasons.

Regardless of how the conditions of these two clubs they are still rivals who should not underestimate each other so Madrid knows this because if they try to underestimate the condition of Barcelona only with financial conditions alone it is a mistake and last season should be proof that with Barcelona's shortcomings they are still able to win the La Liga trophy. League trophy with all its limitations but for now by looking at the difference in points currently created between Barcelona and Madrid it would not be wrong to say that this season the La Liga trophy will again belong to Madrid even though there is currently only an 8 point gap between them and the match still leaves about 8 more matches but expect Madrid to lose in 3 consecutive matches even though the schedule is quite heavy I expect Madrid to lose in 3 consecutive matches. Although the schedule is quite heavy I think this is still too difficult to expect.

I think it's not a surprise that Barcelona having big improvement lately. The drop in performances in the early season is proven by the injuries of their important players while they don't have a good quality of squad depth. Those injuries made Xavi has to put some players out of their original positions that hinder their tactical prowess. Having full team of regular starters makes Xavi easy to execute his tactical plan flawlessly.

The gap of 8-points may be a bit far to chase a strong Real Madrid side, but el clasico game can be a turnaround that can provide the chance to closing the gap. Both Barcelona and Madrid have UCL fixture to focus, but the pressure is more on Madrid because they have to face a really strong team, defending champion Manchester City,. Maybe this could be a slight advantage for Barcelona to keep pushing their chance to chase Madrid. I think Barcelona having less pressure because losing in R8 won't be a big blow for Barcelona for now.

[TelolettOm]

Amazing.
Copa del Rey

Until the last minute, neither Athletic Club nor Mallorca had added a goal. And in the end, penalty shootouts took place to determine which one won the Copa del Rey this season.

And the result is: 4 - 2 (penalty shootout)
Congratulations to Athletic Club

They were extraordinary, both of them competed very optimally. however, there was only 1 winner, and that was Athletic Club

Exactly, Barcelona had to use another strategy when several of its main players were injured, this is what made it difficult for Barcelona to be first. At least Barcelona has tried to give its best to stay in second place on the standings. There is no longer a chance for Barcelona to catch up on the points they are left behind. Hopefully the injured Barcelona players will recover soon and contribute again to making Barcelona champions.

Although the schedule is quite heavy I think this is still too difficult to expect.

In essence, Barcelona only needs to focus on securing full points in the remaining matches ahead, regardless of how Real Madrid finishes this season. Points will be deducted automatically if Real Madrid loses or draws, and what Barcelona needs to do is maintain its own consistency. The El Clasico match is one of the deciding ones, of all the remaining matches this season, and the match will be a tough test for both teams. Expecting Real Madrid to drop points makes sense, but it won't be useful if Barcelona themselves also drop points.

Ancelotti really understands the pressure towards the end of the season, so he will not underestimate any team in maintaining their chances of winning a trophy this season. Barcelona is still a big team that has the potential to disrupt Real Madrid path to winning trophies this season, Xavi squad will continue to apply pressure until the season ends. Even though they are currently hit by a financial crisis, Barcelona is able to appear dominant as a tough competitor for Real Madrid. If Juan Laporta can bring Barcelona out of this difficult situation, Real Madrid will again find eternal rivals with equal strength in La Liga.

Athletic Bilbao scored a goal as expected and were able to play penalties and win that game with difficulty.
Final score was 1 - 1 and 4 - 2 after penalties thanks to their goalkeeper saving one.
Athletic Bilbao were able to get that title after like 30 years not winning it so they should be happy especially that they were being kicked from the competition after losing in it.

At least Barcelona has tried to give its best to stay in second place on the standings. There is no longer a chance for Barcelona to catch up on the points they are left behind. Hopefully the injured Barcelona players will recover soon and contribute again to making Barcelona champions.

Xavi has got a fair rotational strategy that will most definitely help them be able to get to scale through the period of time when their key players has gotten injuries but then it isn't such that can actually be really maintained long enough as they will most likely get to the point where they will exhaust their rotation and they will have to get their key players to be able to maintain productivity and a good position on the table too aswell.

Talking about catching up with the points they did failed to get at the beginning of the season which has gotten them the second position they are currently, is something they can't really achieve again this season probably until maybe next season because the point difference both teams has got , is way very far such that the team at the top can never get to allow them come to get ahead of them because they have been very far away from them much more that they are may just have to let go till next season when they will have all the time to fix all their weakness and get a better form to stand against other teams in the la Liga.

But then Barcelona happened to be the defending champions of these la Liga and so much was actually expected of them this season and they have been able to still try their best to make it to the second position despite all the ups and downs so they could be said to have tried their best aswell and are able to get to the point they are and will still qualify for the champions league again by next season, the only difference is in the fact that the point difference is just too much.

Although the schedule is quite heavy I think this is still too difficult to expect.

Barcelona have struggled to challenge Real Madrid this season as much as they use to do over the years and that's because of the club have been experiencing financial issues which have restricted them from signing as much world class players players as they should've signed in the transfer market for the past four transfer windows. But despite all the challenges that Barcelona is facing, it's not stopped them from being Real Madrid's biggest rivals in the league. Barcelona won the league title last season but are very unlikely to repeat it again this season because Real Madrid who happens to be at the top of the league at the moment is in a very good form and ahead of them with eight points.
Barcelona's biggest problem at the moment is finding a manager that'll replace their current manager Xavi Hernandez who'll leave the club after the end of the current season. Getting manager that'll be able to manage Barcelona as much as Xavi Hernandez have done since he took over the managerial position at the club will be very difficult if you ask me.

The main reason for the improvement in Barcelona was because of Xavi being under more pressure and that's surprising to see this happening in Barcelona. Usually, when you put a coach under pressure they will have a weaker performance and they won't have a good performance anymore but we saw before the game against Napoli in the Champions League when they put Xavi under pressure and they said Xavi would leave the team at the end this season, they had much better performance. They even tried to choose another coach while they had Xavi working in Barcelona
Now it seems Barcelona is even trying to make Xavi stay in the team because of the good performance he had but it seems this time Xavi wants to leave.

Hopefully the injured Barcelona players will recover soon and contribute again to making Barcelona champions.

Barcelona is able to continue its winning streak in La Liga, this is proven by their level of concentration to stay in second place and take advantage of the opportunity to stick closely to real madrid if Real madrid loses points in the remaining match this season. Of course, strategy is the most important thing that coaches have to think about when their main players are absent and xavi has succeeded in doing this by bringing victory and victory. There is indeed very little chance for barcelona to overtake real madrid because currently Real madrid is 8 points ahead of barcelona who is in second place.

Barcelona must focus on the Champions League, especially since they will be facing a team that is quite strong and this is where the most effective strategy is needed to beat PSG. The first leg will take place at psg home ground where barcelona will most likely find it difficult to beat PSG. But they can play well and look for a draw in this match because the second leg will take place at Barcelona headquarters and that's where they can try to beat psg.

Barcelona still has many great players from its academy and i think that this could be alternative solution to fix the injured problems encountered by barcelona. The main problem whether club will still able to maintain it, but Real Madrid has dominated this season. We can't deny that if the league competition is about how consistently you can get three points in any matches. Barcelona has done so poorly in the middle of the season.
Without a doubt, if Real Madrid is now taking care of it, it must have performed better than before. I believe Barcelona must accept that it will not win any more trophies this season because Real Madrid owns La Liga.
Barcelona's chances of winning a trophy are slim at the moment. I don't doubt it. I believe that if we also discuss which factors influence Barcelona's ranking below Real Madrid, there are many variables that are difficult to explain.

The limited number of players that Barcelona has and injuries to these important players is what caused Barcelona to experience difficulties in the race for the La Liga title at first so they lost good opportunities which they missed in several matches but now Barcelona's condition is starting to improve but it seems a little too late to catch Real Madrid in the title race because the difference in points with the top of the standings is quite far so that it is quite impossible for Barcelona to catch it for the rest of the season.

Barcelona's current position is in 2nd place and has overtaken Girona which is now in 3rd place, at least Barcelona must maintain its runner up position so that it doesn't look bad because Barcelona was the La Liga champion last season, at least being in 2nd place below Real Madrid is not a bad situation bad, but Barcelona also has to be careful because Girona is also trying to return to second place if Barcelona is careless and loses several matches.

The El Clasico match between Barcelona vs Real Madrid might be a revenge event for Barcelona, but if they are able to beat Real Madrid, which has a stronger squad than Barcelona, but Xavi's tactics also cannot be underestimated, which can sometimes create surprises and if Barcelona being able to beat Real Madrid will narrow the gap between the two.
