La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Hvdv]

Girona's rise in the La Liga is really difficult not to notice. They were able to finish the last season in 10th place but now they have made a huge progress.    They don't have a very impressive squad compared to the biggest teams of the league now actually but the team effort is amazing. Besides despite not having one of the best squads they have some good talents in the squad.

Probably Girona will lose some important players in the summer and this would be really bad for them if they qualify for the Champions League. But I guess they would make some decent transfers for the Champions League too.

Girona's success in this season is massive and everyone is impressed but whether they will be able to maintain it in a next season and more seasons in future will be important for their club.

Will they become another Sevilla in La Liga, rising from a small club to a big one and most successful representatives of La Liga in Europe?

Girona can aim at that big target but it will need many years and with their limited finance, they will have to avoid breaking their club's salary ceiling for star players. They need to continue to find young and unknown players, grow these players up and gain more success from them. If Girona falls to a trap of lifting their salary ceiling, their finance will be unsustainable and will have risk of bankruptcy in future.

I think Girona have been improving gradually over the years and the fact that their players have been playing together for long is another thing to their advantage. I don't expect expect to change anytime soon and that will mean that they would have transfoed from a low club to a top team. Of they eventually qualify for champions league next season in line with the expectations of their teaming supporters, that will be a big boost to their morale and team spirit. Indeed the future is looking so bright for them.

Of course, the future looks bright for the players because the fact that this squad is pushing for the top positions in La Liga means that the big teams will pay extra attention to Girona players. Girona is having a dream year this year. I also wonder where the players will be in the coming years.

Girona have good players in their team, they played very well in the beginning and then they fell behind Real Madrid and Barcelona in the points table.  However, Girona's quality of play is still quite good.  So expect something better from them in the next season. The way they played at the start of the series looked like they might be going to beat the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona this year but they failed.

As a result of losing both matches to Real Madrid, Girona fell from the top. They couldn't recover afterwards, but no one expected such a performance from Girona when they started the season. They are having a great season and their players are playing really well. Tactically, they are great things that they reflect in the game. Even though Girona could not reach the championship, they left a great mark in La Liga as a team.

[Hirose UK]

There is a 7 point gap between Girona and Athletico Madrid, and they would still be fourth if they drop there, there is a 9 point difference between Athletic Club as well, so it wouldn't be really all that simple. We are talking about just 8 games left, expecting Girona to lose 9 more points than Athletic Club in the last 8 weeks would be a little weird

Girona coach will not allow it to happen in their remaining matches, because they have loss a lot in some few matches that made their position to dropped down to third position, and their coach has discovered the causes of their mistakes which they will never allow such mistakes to happen again. Athletic club has performed well in this season to defeated many teams to get to this fourth position, and if Girona repeat their mistakes that brought their points down in their remaining matches, they will take the position from Girona. Real Madrid is still toping the la Liga league table which many people know that they are in a good position to win the title and Barcelona will struggle for second position because Girona is still close to Barcelona to make mistakes so that they can take the second position back from them to make their fans celebrate them.

That should don't be the case because the difference in points is quite large, if Atletico Madrid can actually match or surpass it in the remaining matches, then that means Girona will suffer several defeats during the remaining matches.
It just that I don't believe that Girona will experience several mistakes that will cause them to lose in the future because there is only one complicated match, namely against Barcelona.
For the next match against Atletico Madrid, I think Girona will still be able to show satisfactory results even though it is an away match, at least sharing the points by achieving draw is pretty good solution rather than losing.

In fact, I still have feeling of optimism if Girona is able to surpass Barcelona, which is currently only 2 points apart, Barcelona has derby match against Real Madrid and this is chance of defeat for Barcelona.
If in the derby Barcelona loses to Real Madrid and the Barcelona vs Girona match ends in draw because they performed optimally in the home match then Girona has the opportunity to become runner-up.

The way they played at the start of the series looked like they might be going to beat the likes of Real Madrid and Barcelona this year but they failed.

You know, I would not rush to talk about the next season for Girona, and the reason is that I have seen many times how after a successful season, a previously little-known team, they sold a lot of players and the next season for them was much worse.

It is already known about some players that they will move to another team, imagine if someone buys Dovbyk and other team leaders, in which case the club will earn very good money, but the next season will most likely be a failure for them, because they will again look for young people players who are unlikely to be able to repeat the team’s success, especially since Champions League matches will be added to the games in La Liga.

Of they eventually qualify for champions league next season in line with the expectations of their teaming supporters, that will be a big boost to their morale and team spirit. Indeed the future is looking so bright for them.

They have improved drastically and it could be due to the fact that they have played together for long or because they have a good chemistry with each other and the coaches. Keeping the same players for more years would be difficult because bigger teams will come for their star players because they are a small team and every player dreams of playing for a bigger club. Sooner or later big teams will come for their star players and when they do it will affect them and their style of play. They should enjoy this moment while they can because they will soon go back to being inferior team as they used to be.

Of course, the future looks bright for the players because the fact that this squad is pushing for the top positions in La Liga means that the big teams will pay extra attention to Girona players. Girona is having a dream year this year. I also wonder where the players will be in the coming years.

Girona improving performance gave its players an advantage, they gave them a surprise when they managed to top the standings. It is clear that what Girona achieved this season was never predicted, they made Real Madrid fight hard to win first place. The big changes that occurred in Girona's squad made other clubs start to look at their players. This situation was very beneficial for the players because they had the opportunity to play for a big team, while Girona was forced to look for new players to fill the empty positions.

Usually clubs like this will find it difficult to maintain their performance, for example Leicester City and Napoli, after these two teams succeeded in winning the title race in their respective leagues, they immediately fell from the top four positions due to several of their star players being poached by other teams. Girona might experience the same thing next season if some of their star players choose to leave the club.

[rendravolt]

I think Almeria and Granada will definitely be relegated this season but there is one more team that will accompany them at the end of the season. If you look at the standings there is Cadiz but it is also possible that they will survive this season. It will be hell for either team and the competition at the bottom of the table will continue until the end.

The reason is that there are several teams that have a point difference that is not that far from Celta Vigo, Vallecano, Mallorca, Sevilla and Alaves, which could be one of the teams on the relegation list along with Almeria and Granada. There are 8 matches left for all teams in La Liga and this will be very decisive. I think it would be very surprising if Sevilla were relegated, do you have the same view? considering that this team always has difficulty competing at the bottom.

[rahmad2nd]

There is no difference if Barcelona is in the runner up or third position because it is the same as getting a UCL ticket next season. The point is to be in the top four, you don't have to be in the runner up position and to maintain it, the point is that being in the top four is more than enough. Moreover, even though Girona managed to overtake Barcelona without any results, it's still the Laliga title for Madrid and UCL tickets for the four teams in the final standings, Barcelona might also focus more on the UCL because they have a chance there.

Barcelona knows enough that they can't catch up with Madrid who are at the top of the standings, that's why they are more focused on the UCL for now and I'm also sure that Girona wants to maintain their position in the top four and it will be impossible for them to overtake Barcelona, who are still playing very well so far. consistent until now, so there will be no chance for Girona to overtake Barcelona, against PSG it will certainly be a difficult match for me. Barcelona is more focused on thinking about how to get through to the next round and beat PSG.

The point is, Barcelona must maintain its ranking in the top four of the La Liga standings. Since Barca is currently in the runner up position, it is appropriate for them to maintain it rather than experience a decline in ranking. Moreover, if Barca loses momentum towards a Champions League ticket. So, it's natural for Barcelona to defend its title, especially since Barcelona is one of the elite teams in this competition. As for Girona, they could overtake Barcelona's position. However, with the same unstable performance, plus having several crucial matches, it seems difficult for Girona to become runners up until the end of this competition. After all, as you said, the most important thing is that staying in the top four is enough to be able to compete again in the Champions League next season.

By the way, that doesn't mean Barcelona can't catch Real Madrid at the top of the standings with 8 games remaining. However, it will be very difficult for Barcelona, ​​considering the condition of Barcelona itself, as well as Real Madrid's performance which is currently in a positive trend. So, the most ideal thing is to maintain consistency in La Liga and do his job with his best game in the Champions League. because, to overthrow Paris Saint-Germain is not an easy matter. There are not many choices, Xavi must focus more on the most ideal position for his squad. At the very least, in Xavi's final season with Barcelona, ​​he must do his best, including overthrowing PSG in the quarter-finals.

They are having a great season and their players are playing really well. Tactically, they are great things that they reflect in the game. Even though Girona could not reach the championship, they left a great mark in La Liga as a team.

Didn't mean to disrespect Girona, but if they can't finish at least in the top 5 positions, I don't think the effort they spent are worth because they need to get something. People don't care with the process, they need to see the results.

Since Girona has been fell from the first position, Girona won't able to make good amount of money by selling their players since other teams will think they were just lucky.

[Gallar]

There is a 7 point gap between Girona and Athletico Madrid, and they would still be fourth if they drop there, there is a 9 point difference between Athletic Club as well, so it wouldn't be really all that simple. We are talking about just 8 games left, expecting Girona to lose 9 more points than Athletic Club in the last 8 weeks would be a little weird.

I hope that people could find a way to make that work, I can't really see how that would be any different, but if that is what we are looking at then we should be considering the situation to be important. I personally believe that what we have right now would not be easy, and we do need the situation to be a little bit easy for Girona to end at UCL levels this season without a doubt.

In my opinion, Girona's potential to enter the UCL is very wide open this season. The reason is, as you said, Girona, who is currently in 3rd position, has a fairly large point difference with the teams in 4th and 5th positions in La Liga. So there is no need to doubt Girona's fate this season. The reason is that all this time Girona has always played quite well and even experienced the top position in La Liga. This gives a clear picture that Girona does have very good quality and it is not a coincidence that Girona can reach its current position. So basically don't assume that Girona is a team that has only been in the first division (Laliga) for a few seasons and will have difficulty staying in the top 4. Because in reality, in the last two seasons, Girona has always appeared pretty consistent. So I personally have no doubts about Girona regarding their chances of qualifying for the UCL.

And, Girona's match against Atletico Madrid will take place this week. In my opinion, this match will not make Girona's position in the La Liga standings unsafe. The reason is that in this match, Girona has the potential to win or draw. Because if you look at the last meeting between Girona and Atletico Madrid, the result was won by Girona (although they won narrowly). So in this match the benchmarks will not be much different from previous meetings. Therefore, I assume Girona has a chance to win the match or draw against Atletico Madrid.

Since Girona has been fell from the first position, Girona won't able to make good amount of money by selling their players since other teams will think they were just lucky.

For now Girona still has a good record on this league because they are still on a good position and however there is no way Girona will end up on 5 position of this league regardless of there lapses lately because right now apart from Real Madrid and Barcelona I don't think there is any team good enough to easily bring Girona down from the third position of the table, however from there performance you will see that they seem more comfortable on there current position because they no that they will never have chance against Real Madrid, so they feel the best way is to maintain there position on the table in other for them to qualify for champions league next season.

In last 10 rounds, with the worst performance from the Girona they were able to secure 16 points and Atlético Madrid having 17 and Athletic Bilbao having 15 and difference of goals were 4 for all mean their quality on level and things are surely not easy for the teams to bring down Girona from their fourth spot chance because they have already done good job and having enough success which will give them chance for the next season Champions League and in remaining 8 games we will have some tough challenging matches as well.

Even we are having some significant improvement in few teams performance but still things are well under control for the Girona to have their chance and do the best in future as well because they are having owners which can spend huge funds for the improvement of quality and things well under control for the best in the future as well.

Since Girona has been fell from the first position, Girona won't able to make good amount of money by selling their players since other teams will think they were just lucky.

Yes, actually, Girona is just having good luck this season and actually it is also one of Girona's opportunities to be able to get big investors if they can stay at least in the top 3 positions and if Girona can be successful in the best ranking to end this match, of course some big investors will have a little confidence to give funds to Girona and buy more quality players.
All of this only seems in vain when a team like Girona who has no experience in the top flight will definitely experience a decline in performance towards the end of the season because popular teams are better able to know how to reclaim the top 3 position and maintain it while Girona has no experience in this matter. .

[Sim_card]

Barcelona will also try as hard as they can to maintain their runner up position. They also don't want Girona to overtake Barcelona again in second place, therefore Barcelona must remain careful every time they play a match for the remainder of this season and must remain consistent so that Girona is not able to overtake Barcelona in the second place second place. It will be a big achievement for Girona this season if he is able to stay in the top 3 because he will experience competing in a prestigious competition which is of course a new challenge for Girona.

There is no difference if Barcelona is in the runner up or third position because it is the same as getting a UCL ticket next season. The point is to be in the top four, you don't have to be in the runner up position and to maintain it, the point is that being in the top four is more than enough. Moreover, even though Girona managed to overtake Barcelona without any results, it's still the Laliga title for Madrid and UCL tickets for the four teams in the final standings, Barcelona might also focus more on the UCL because they have a chance there.

Barcelona knows enough that they can't catch up with Madrid who are at the top of the standings, that's why they are more focused on the UCL for now and I'm also sure that Girona wants to maintain their position in the top four and it will be impossible for them to overtake Barcelona, who are still playing very well so far. consistent until now, so there will be no chance for Girona to overtake Barcelona, against PSG it will certainly be a difficult match for me. Barcelona is more focused on thinking about how to get through to the next round and beat PSG.

With the position and points that Barca is on, I don't think that there is any need for them to start trying to meet up with Real Madrid when they have important competition to play like the champions league. No matter what the outcome of the laliga matches would be at the w d of the season Barca will go to the champions league next season. It is better for them to put more attention on playing PSG than thinking of Girona or Real Madrid.

[Abu-Naim]

I think Almeria and Granada will definitely be relegated this season but there is one more team that will accompany them at the end of the season. If you look at the standings there is Cadiz but it is also possible that they will survive this season. It will be hell for either team and the competition at the bottom of the table will continue until the end.

Granada and Almeria will surely go to relegation due to the already accumulated points.
Almeria won just one match since the beginning of the season and they lost 20 matches, while Granada won just two matches so far. They both have 13 and 14 points respectively which they can never survive this season because the points are too low for them to remain in the Laliga.
Cadiz should also join them because they are not in good form as they used to be, they have 25 points three points behind Celta Vigo. I don’t think Cadiz can pass Celta Vigo in terms of points even though they can both battle for it. I think Celta is in a good position to remain in the Laliga because they seem to have a better performance lately than Cadiz.

The reason is that there are several teams that have a point difference that is not that far from Celta Vigo, Vallecano, Mallorca, Sevilla and Alaves, which could be one of the teams on the relegation list along with Almeria and Granada. There are 8 matches left for all teams in La Liga and this will be very decisive. I think it would be very surprising if Sevilla were relegated, do you have the same view? considering that this team always has difficulty competing at the bottom.

Looking at the points difference, I think it is only Cadiz that will find it difficult to meet up with the rest because they already have at least three points and above ahead of them.

[Z_MBFM]

Girona have good players in their team, they played very well in the beginning and then they fell behind Real Madrid and Barcelona in the points table.  However, Girona's quality of play is still quite good.  So expect something better from them in the next season.

Girona are only 2 points behind Barcelona so it's not a big problem Girona are still playing well enough and they have the ability to do well this season. their team management is getting better due to which they are able to show better performance quickly. However, Real Madrid play much better than before and with enough good players in their squad, they are able to perform well on a regular basis.  So while Girona can get past Barcelona, ​​I doubt they can do the same against Real Madrid.

[Obim34]

It is better for them to put more attention on playing PSG than thinking of Girona or Real Madrid.

Catching up to Madrid seems impossible, no matter Barcelona winning streaks, I believe same will be applicable to Madrid cause their chances of losing any of their upcoming games is slight, even if they should draw or lose in any game they won't lose too consecutively, this will make Barca unable to catch up. Mean while it is advisable that Barca even while in the race for the Champions league title do not neglect on enhancing their performance to aswell maintain their position in this table, any slight mistakes from Barca is sending Girona up there, also having very close goal difference meaning Barca has to put out their best performance in both title race even for the Champions league race title, they do not present as the favorite to win the league.

[masulum]

It's not that easy to gain the trust of big sponsors. This is the first season for Girona who has the opportunity to go to UCL. For next reason, top sponsors may not have made Girona as a sponsorship target. There are many considerations, starting from
- Club value
- Player values
- Team consistency
- Supporter loyalty
- Club broadcasting rights
- etc.
From the points above it is clear that it is not yet time for corporate sponsors/investors to decide to become club sponsors. But, with its current achievements, it can at least set tariffs/cooperation contracts with a higher nominal value.

[Palakka]

Girona are only 2 points behind Barcelona so it's not a big problem Girona are still playing well enough and they have the ability to do well this season. their team management is getting better due to which they are able to show better performance quickly. However, Real Madrid play much better than before and with enough good players in their squad, they are able to perform well on a regular basis.  So while Girona can get past Barcelona, ​​I doubt they can do the same against Real Madrid.

Girona currently continues to put pressure on Barcelona in La Liga, although actually the third position will also play in the Champions League next season, but still at this time Girona wants to be able to keep their chances of ending the season as high as possible even though the first rank has escaped their grasp this season, with a difference of 2 points of course the opportunity for Girona to shift Barcelona's position in second place still wide open at this time and certainly with the rest The current match is still 8 more so everything could happen at the end of the season.

I think for now Girona just need to focus on living the rest of their games consistently to win without thinking about other teams, let alone hoping Barcelona will lose because it will only burden and destroy their concentration later, I think even if they fail to reach second place of course the third position will still be proud for Girona who did come as a team that has been not favored so far in La Liga,  At the moment Girona must focus on winning the remaining games not just to shift Barcelona position in the standings, because the main thing for Girona is to avoid the pursuit of Atletico Madrid and also Bilbao who are now below them.

[Rengga Jati]

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.

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.

So far, even though there is talk about Mbappe going to Real Madrid, there is no certainty regarding several of Real Madrid's future players. However, Mbappe's position will not displace other players. They each have important roles that can actually support each other more optimally. So far there has been no special and serious discussion regarding this matter. Because after all, Rodrygo is also one of Real Madrid's top players at the moment.

Anywa, Real Madrid is currently playing a match against Man City in the Champions League. At first I was very enthusiastic when Real Madrid was leading. But in the end... Yes, just enjoy the various results, the hope is that Real Madrid will win this leg because they are the hosts. But on the other hand, it is not that much of a problem for City.

In fact, currently Man City is even superior to Real Madrid. Sad, I am a fan of Real Madrid. but, keep it up and never give up until the end.
2 - 3 (Man City leading currently)

[QueenVera]

Of all the big La Liga teams that play in the Copa Del Rey only Bilbao is able to survive and go to the final, while other teams that we expect such as Barcelona, Madrid and Atletico actually have to be eliminated sooner than we thought, yes Bilbao has all the advantages to win the final match, because indeed Mallorca in particular of course has never been favored to reach and even win the Copa del Rey championship trophy,  It was quite surprising for Mallorca to reach the final, especially their success in beating Girona at that time was really beyond my prediction because Girona is the most surprising team in La Liga and also the Copa Del Rey.

In that game Bilbao did have to work hard and even throughout the game they were able to get tremendous pressure from Mallorca, when I saw the game, I thought that Bilbao would lose but fortunately they were able to win the game on penalties.
After getting the trophy of course they now have high motivation to face the remaining matches and of course this triggers a tight competition in the Champions League zone at this time, I think the target of qualifying for the Champions League is a realistic target for them because indeed they have secured Europa League tickets at this time through the Copa del Rey champion path.

 In a few recent games, Bilbao have been able to show strength and charisma to winning games. They've safely been tagged underrated and not really focused on but looking deep, they're making waves. Even their betting odds would speak for them. They are a team practically growing into a La Liga threat club. They've had competitive games and ensured they kept up their pace making the result of the game be either to their favour or a fair draw. Girona and Vallecano are a testament of the fact.

 It's good how Spanish teams are starting to face the uprising of the beat and live through letting just 3 teams be the talk about of the league. Currently the likes of Girona,  Real Sociedad too and definitely Bilbao are outshining in their deeds and it's amazing to watch how football has become even more interesting this season in the Spanish league. For Mallorca, they're a competitive side, resilient and relentless too. It's amazing to watch them so far this season.

 They're definitely underrated regardless of the fact they've not really had good number of victories, they've definitely put up a tough battle for teams and it's something to be impressed about.
They did well in their games against the big teams in the league and yes being below on the league table standings is not really a determinant as to how good a team can actually be. It's just a matter of being unlucky though. I believe they've in their games so far learnt useful lessons that will always be a point to watch ahead of every subsequent encounters.
