La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Salahmu]

I already predicted Atletico Madrid to win Girona because since Girona have lost concentration on the league title, they have not been giving their best in matches and when I also checked their head to head I find out that Atletico Madrid win more than Girona so I just knew that Girona may not be able to withstand Atletico Madrid

It was a quite disappointing that Girona was not much on a good shape on that match, although at the beginning of the match they played really well especially from the first minute and the moment they scored the first early goal on the fourth minutes I was thinking their performance will increase and they will utilize the opportunity to secure more goals against Atletico madrid but little did I no that the match will turn out this way for Girona.

It has really become crystal clear that Girona performance has really changed, although I no that they have proving their points to everyone that they have the performance to go far and also to qualify to the next season champions league but losing matches could easily affect them on their current position of the league table, however they are even Lucky that they have already gotten a very points before now if not Atletico madrid would have taking over the third position after wining them today.

Atletico Madrid made a strong comeback after being a goal down and registered a win against Girona. Though Girona initially opened the door for the game's goals, but ended up losing it. They had high hopes for this season but unfortunately fell short. This match has clarified the real title contenders and the teams vying for the top four spots. Atletico Madrid narrowed the gap with Girona in a tight battle, with only 4 points separating them from the top 3. The worst-case scenario for Girona would be missing out on qualifying for the Champions League altogether, at the same time confident that they will hold top 4 position at least.

Atletico Madrid has once again shown its class as one of the teams that has always been a regular in the Champions League zone. They were not at all surprised by Girona quick goal, Atletico players were still able to remain calm and maintain the rhythm of their game well. Atletico comeback made it increasingly difficult for Girona to catch Barcelona, who is in second place. Barcelona who will face Cadiz in week 31, will certainly get an easy win because their opponents are inconsistent this season. Cadiz bad record makes Barcelona even more motivated to win, especially since Girona just lost points at Atletico headquarters.
Girona is starting to lose confidence after their extraordinary performance since the start of the season, defeats are so easy for Girona that they are in danger of failing to finish in the top four if they do not consistently maintain their performance.

The worst-case scenario for Girona would be missing out on qualifying for the Champions League altogether, at the same time confident that they will hold top 4 position at least.

It is quite possible for Girona to be pushed out of the top 4 positions considering their declining performance.
Atletico Madrid's success in turning things around and winning the match was not a big surprise because they deserved to win this match after playing much better than Girona, regardless if Girona was able to score a goal first at the start of the match, Atletico Madrid's performance and game were much better. .

In fact, Girona played well in this match, so it was natural that Girona managed to score a quick goal in the 4th minute of thismatch. As a team that is in the top four, Girona's performance still looks good in this match too, so of course Girona also has the ability to maintain its position in the top four. Because, even though Atletico managed to beat Girona too, in fact there is still a four point gap between Girona and Atletico. Therefore, even though there are still several more matches to be played until the season ends, I personally still very confident that Girona will still succeed in finishing in the top four and will play in the Champions League next season.

[Weawant]

In fact, Girona played very well and they had the opportunity to score more, but Atletico's defense played very well. Dovbyk was able to score and was ahead of Bellinegma in the list of scorers, but these are the only positive moments in this match. It was important for Atletico to win and they achieved this, but Girona began to concede too much, and there was a decline in attack. Girona is still 4 points ahead of Atleticon, and there are still 7 matches left to play. Barcelona is probably the only difficult opponent left, all the others can be beaten, so I think that Girona can stay in third place.

Before this game u had mentioned the fact that Girona may not be able to penetrate the defense of atletico as they have a relatively fair strength within their defense such that i don't trust girona to be tactical enough to get pass that defense in such a way it will give them victory. They actually tried their best but then they were contending a good team with a better form and good strength so loosing out is actually expected.

Atletico were playing from home and i think it was actually enough for them to see as an advantage because playing from home will gat your morale high since you will be having majority of the stadium filled with your fans and you wouldn't want to perform any less before them , that asides, Atletico has got a better tactical approach as compared to girona and that's why i mentioned sometimes ago that Girona basically uses an advantage of winning smaller teams and then getting to gather points from them while they try to draw or probably loose to bigger team.

This tactics has helped them a long way to the point they are now on the table and so they literally try to maintain it but then it becomes obvious that they are just little above average whenever they get to meet bigger team that has got a better form and strength than they actually do so i still don't actually get to rate them as a strong team yet but just within t he average and are most likely getting to improve beyond average.

Girona has remaining too close points with Atletico Madrid and currently has 4 gap points, after defeating by Atletico in last few hours ago not quit safe for Girona securing the top fourth position standings if losses many points on several matches left. Girona took the lead in the early minutes through Artem Dovbyk's goal but Atletico Madrid was able to equalize through Griezmann's penalty goal and two additional goals from Angel Correa.

The crucial victory over Girona makes Atletico Madrid little safer in getting ticket to the Champions League next season, wish Athletic Bilbao loss points for next match and more secure for Atletico with champion league spot.

Some time ago there were rumors that Xavi would not leave Barcelona, but it seems his decision remains firm to leave Barcelona and through Fabrizio Romano's upload we know this is valid news that cannot be doubted. Some time ago there was news that Joan Laporta would try his best to keep Xavi and some of us definitely believe that considering that Barcelona can only rely on Xavi with its current finances.

But from Xavi's side, it seems like he doesn't want to get into any more trouble and with such a huge burden of responsibility he certainly feels he is no longer able to handle this team. Barcelona's expectations were too high but they couldn't keep up with the hunt for good players in the transfer window and of course Xavi's request to bring in the players he wanted couldn't be fulfilled while coaching Barcelona.

However, on the other hand, Barcelona has players from the academy who are quite reliable, such as Lamine Yamal, Fermin Lopez or their new talented young defender, Pau Cubarsi. However, if Barcelona wants to compete next season, they have to buy above average players to complement the deficiencies in depth.

Since Barcelona management are unable to provide the players xavi needs,  there  is nothing he can do to make the team better than what it is. Their is no need for him to remain as coach,  he believes he can do better to win trophies  if only gets the best players and Barcelona can't afford it. I believe if xavi insists to be coach of Barcelona without buying more players to get the his desired squad it can affect him as a coach lead to more problem. Xaxi has done his best for Barcelona aleast winning laliga title is a good achievement.  I feel he is tired of working for Barcelona because he can't do more than his strength to give the club the best.

Barcelona should just look for a better coach that can continue from where xavi stops. Barcelona just need a need coach that will be capable of working with the current players the club has since the club is facing financial challenge.

Xavi has been a dream manager for Barcelona and they can't get anyone who would be as good as him. I can't see anyone who would do a better job, Xavi not wanting to stay there makes sense in a way, because of the financial issues they are having, it makes sense that he doesn't want to be manager of a team that can't make any decent transfers and unfortunately there is no clear future neither, not like you could say in 3 years all the debt will be gone or anything, they are doing even worse every year.

So, it is clear that we are talking about a situation that will not be fixed anytime soon, so Xavi wanting to leave for a team that has money would make sense. Think about it, there are so many teams with rich owners now, why not try to go to one of them.

At least Xavi has shown his quality as a coach who can change Barcelona back to a better performance than what happened before he came to Barcelona.
of course, Xavi can move to another, richer club. but at Barcelona, he has his emotional ties because he also grew up playing there.
Barca may not get a coach as good as Xavi shortly after his departure this season. There should have been several approaches taken by Barcelona to several coaches to train their teams with the serious financial challenges they were experiencing.

Girona failed to grab 3 points today after atletico madrid beat them and at this time their position began to be depressed by atletico madrid with a difference of 4 points, girona was able to play quite well today and even they were able to dominate the game even though playing at  atletico madrid home, The quick goal scored by girona certainly made the atletico madrid players quite surprised,  because It only took 4 minutes for Girona to break into Atletico Madrid's goal today, but unfortunately Girona was unable to maintain the victory and even they had to taste the resurgence of Atletico Madrid by conceding 3 goals.

I think Oblak performance today was quite good and I think Atletico Madrid should thank Oblak for the save he made today, if he hadn't been the main goalkeeper for Atletico Madrid  maybe we would have found it difficult to see a victory for Atletico Madrid because the game and also Girona' performance in the game was very good even though they lost 3-1.
Girona seems to have to rise immediately in the next match, because currently their position is starting to be vulnerable and it may also be difficult to maintain the top 4 if they lose points in the next match.

Girona gradually began to falter in the face of a giant Spanish team like ATM, who were mentally in quite promising condition. succeeding in maintaining their lead until the end with a score of 3-1 certainly made Atletico Madrid even more enthusiastic about catching up on the points they were behind. So it's not surprising that when we approach the end of the season the gap with Girona will be getting closer. Therefore Girona is not completely safe if they do not return to the performance they had at the start of the season. UCL tickets are indeed their target, but at least being in standings 3 and 4 is a position that should be an option until the end of the season. I want to see Girona in the UCL next season and measure how far this club can go.

Don't ask again in the past Girona was a mediocre team, so if their achievements can enter the Champion League next season it is good enough not to need to compare titles because it is certain that the struggle is only owned by Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Girona is starting to falter? That's the real truth at the moment the points are getting closer to Atletico Madrid if Girona loses again then ATM can overtake it.

The scenario will be Girona will finish in 4th place at most and Girona's achievement can enter the UCL for the first time? Are my words true? Girona enter UCL for the first time?

[piebeyb]

Girona is starting to lose confidence after their extraordinary performance since the start of the season, defeats are so easy for Girona that they are in danger of failing to finish in the top four if they do not consistently maintain their performance.

It is not easy to maintain consistency from the start of the season to the end of the season, so far from the big leagues in Europe that I have seen, only Leverkusen and Inter Milan have been quite successful from the start of the season to the end of the season, they are certain to be champions in the domestic league, Girona has failed to maintain its position and They can't be consistent until the end of this season, but I don't know whether they will succeed in finishing in the top four or not because they experienced bad results, especially when they lost to Atletico Madrid.

Madrid looks like they will establish themselves at the top of the standings and maintain that until the end of the season and win the Laliga title this season, although in the remaining matches they will not have difficult matches but it seems they are not wasting the matches they will face to win the title this season perfectly, especially when facing Barcelona later it will certainly be an interesting match because Barcelona wants to continue to catch up with the gap in points from Madrid and maintain its position as runner up because it is also difficult to wait for Madrid to make many mistakes in the final match of the season.

[adultcrypto]

An early goal from Girona that they couldn't secure for more than 30 minutes before they started getting goals and losing points.
As you said, this game is more important for Atletico Madrid than Girona since they are followed closely by Athletic Bilbao and with these three points they got 4 points closer to Girona and 4 points away from Bilbao for the moment.
Girona last victory in away games were in January this year..

That's the interesting thing about football, not who scores first is entitled to win the game, it was an early celebration for Girona, confident on how they will certainly win the match but Atletico decided to change everything towards favoring themselves. Just 4 points away from Atletico, Girona needs to keep up winning streaks to remain in their position, Madrid are no longer taking it easy and I see their upcoming games as being an easy win except that of Athletic club who are behind them but considering Madrid level of play, it should be a good win for them. Girona might actually drop to 4th on the table but nothing below that position.

The worst-case scenario for Girona would be missing out on qualifying for the Champions League altogether, at the same time confident that they will hold top 4 position at least.

I think this is what we refer to as "jungle being matured" in our local clan, something that means when the peak of something reach, that is when the real strength is tested. I think the league is now at the peak and we can see the giants like Atletico Madric crushing antelopes like Girona without mercy. Nevertheless, Girona have done well the season and qualifying for Champions League next season is a great achievement they should be proud of. They might even end the season with more points than Atletico Madrid who will still have Champions League to face. They might beat Dortmund to qualify for the semi finals and that will be a major distraction for them in their La Liga matches. This seems like a great weekend for gamblers because Atletico Madrid won, Bayern Munic Won, Man City won, and Real Madrid is also winning.

[SUPERSAIAN]

In Girona's first goal, Savio made a very quick transition from left to right in the attack he started, and it was clear that something was going to happen, and then the goal was scored. Even if there was an offside expectation, it was a clean goal. Girona seemed to have started the match with a one-nil lead, but starting ahead against the strong Atletico Madrid did not work. Atletico Madrid scored goals and destroyed Girona.
 
Atletico Madrid gained self-confidence after Griezman scored after Atletico Madrid won a penalty at the 34th minute. The ball that Morata caught on the line and then lifted into the ball was very good, it was literally a goal that came out of nowhere.

[3meek]

Like the first game of the league, it's a game with a lot of goals. Girona scored early and Atletico responded with three goals. Griezmann and Morata are playing excellently. I was expecting a game like this, Girona's fall continues and Atletico has set its sights on third place. After this game, the points difference is down to four. Girona, who keep losing away games, might even lose third place at the end of the league. Fortunately the first 4 places play Champions League. Nothing much will change for them.

Atletico had a good match... Girona are no gift for anyone this season, but Atletico were able to take three points and move closer in the standings... Now the main thing for Girona is to try not to lose the remaining matches to stay in the Eurocup zone... I would like to see them in the Champions League...

Judging by several interviews where Xavi said something like “there is nothing good about being a Barcelona coach, it is a thankless job,” he is not ready/willing to work under such pressure and is serious about leaving no matter what. Laporta’s desire is understandable - he can hardly count on luring a better coach to Barcelona than Xavi (and this is not just a matter of finances, but in general the club’s uncertain position), so even such, in a sense, offensive statements from Xavi went unnoticed.

Feel for Xavi. His hands are bound. The club is broke, therefore he cant sign big players to compete. No recipe for success, in my opinion. His back-and-forth about leaving may be a power move to get the board to relax the purse strings. This is a risk, and Im not convinced it will pay off.

I like Yamal and Lopez - great potential. However, academy players alone cannot win a title. You need battle-tested leaders. Barca must solve the money problem or adapt their play. The leader requires a smart plan, a deal-making mind, and the ability to work with what they have. Xavi and others are under pressure in this difficult circumstance.

Girona's defeat today against Atletico Madrid was predicted yesterday. I'm not surprised by what Atletico Madrid did at home, that's what they should get because in fact Girona is not better in terms of squad depth. A team like Girona plays well because of their enthusiasm and great ambition without any pressure, but when they are burdened by an achievement then that's when their mentality can't keep up.

Atletico Madrid's victory is normal and they have proven themselves to be a team that deserves to remain in the Champions League zone next season. I know Atletico Madrid has also had its ups and downs in form this season, but then again they are a big team who have history in La Liga instead of Girona.

[bitLeap]

This season, the Barcelona team withdrew from the fight for the title of La League at the beginning of the season. Girona and Real Madrid have battled for the La Liga title since the start of the season. Barcelona's performance was somewhat erratic

This is Xavi's last season at Barcelona. He will definitely try his best to do well in the Champions League. Xavi won the La Liga title last season. Having won the Champions League title, Xavi will want to make his journey with Barcelona memorable as a coach as well. However, if you want to win the Champions League title, such an irregular performance cannot be done. Barcelona players need to work harder.

Even though Barcelona performance is uncertain, I think progress in the UCL is enough to support them to qualify for the semifinals. They have shown a great game and beat PSG at the opponent home ground. This shows that Barcelona currently has quite a big opportunity and the task is easier because in the second leg they are playing at home. Even though Barcelona scheme did not win the UCL trophy, Xavi is still considered to be a coach who has made many changes amidst Barcelona messy financial condition. In my opinion, he has been able to survive and by maximizing what he has, Xavi can be said to be quite lucky, because now the most disadvantaged is when Xavi has to leave and Laporta will have difficulty finding a replacement.

Xavi doesn't have much of a budget to build his dream squad to achieve much success, but as a potential big coach, he has proven himself to have a good record in Europe so far. The Barcelona he coached was different and much better than the previous coach, meaning that Xavi had the ability to prove his quality beyond many other coaches.

The greatest thing I have to admit about Xavi is that he succeeded in introducing many academy players to become important players in Barcelona's main squad. Balde, Fermin, Lamine Yamal, Cubarsi, Marc Guiu and several others are players with Spanish blood who are likely to enter the main squad for the Spanish national team in the coming years instead of just Barcelona. That is one of the successes that I have to admit from him, but unfortunately he came at a time when Barcelona was having financial problems.


Real Madrid won 0-1 at Mallorca today. Obviously I am happy with the result and of course these 3 points will bring the club closer to the La Liga title this season. Barcelona will no longer be a problem at the end of the season, but I hope Real Madrid can maintain their chances well.

[QueenVera]

It seems like this is not just about the players having to work hard but we also have to understand the current condition of Barcelona players who only have modest talent qualities without having superior players and some of these players only come from the transfer market as free agents and with conditions like this even though the players work as hard as possible but will still be eliminated by other teams who have more qualified players.
not only in La Liga but also in UCL, Barcelona has very little chance of reaching the final round if they qualify for the semi finals and have to face a team that is stronger and has a more reliable line up of players.

this is indeed the last season for Xavi to stay at Barcelona and he is trying to bring the team to get good results at the end of the season but if everything fails it seems like Xavi will never be blamed because it is not easy to manage a team with only existing players and a lack of players is a mistake one obstacle for Barcelona to win the title in La Liga and in the UCL.
even though Barcelona will fail in the UCL and also in La Liga, I will still respect the team because only with the existing players they will be able to fight until the semi finals in the UCL and get the runner up position in La Liga.

This season is one season Barcelona fans wants to forget in a hurry as this season have been one of their down seasons coupled with the financial issues of the club.  Club’s finances is always a big worry especially as it’s not going to help the club be able to get the proper signings they need. This is one challenge the club has faced this season and as such have had to manage with the injured players and the available players.

 Managing with both sets of players seems to be real tough and this can be troublesome especially for the coach. And i feel because of the trouble and all Xavi decided to depart the club at the end of the season. The win against Mallorca was a boost for them especially as they head into the UCL game against Napoli. You can see how they’ve managed to fight all hard with their injury crisis.

 Xavi has been a good manager at the Spanish side, even though they've had some shaky situations, they've just found a way to cover up lapses and make necessary coverings to the loopholes. It's very much good that they were able to put in good effort regardless of what they lacked to good team building. Nonetheless, Xavi would have still done better than he's already done.

 Well, his days with the team are technically numbered and he's got some commendations which he definitely deserves. I don't know what to say about his intended replacement but all I'll say is Barcelona as a team has work to be done and I'd love to see the new Barcelona in seasons and games to come.
