La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Obim34]

The top La Liga teams from rank 1 to rank 6 each have a point distance that is quite comfortable to maintain. Except with the remaining 7 matches they still have to try to maximize their opportunities but the results will not be much different. But I make sure Madrid, Barcelona, Girona and ATM still have Champions League tickets for next season. Meanwhile Bilbao and Real Sociedad seem to have to remain in their positions and secure their respective points from the teams behind them. Real Betis have 45 points if they really want to catch up with Sociedad then they need +5 points and even then it is still difficult because Sociedad doesn't want to let that happen.

These 4 teams are going to be our champions this season no doubt about it, I don't think they will fall off like Liverpool and Arsenal, the way they did in their Premier league race. Even if ATM takes on the third position, slot is still open to Girona occupying the 4th position which automatically qualifies them for the Champions league race. Just a few matches to be played before the end of the season, maintaining their positions should be their utmost priority to retain their slot in the champions league or lose and get kicked out.

I don't think if Barcelona or Real Madrid played with full power in these games we saw from them recently.

Indeed both teams didn't use their full power and avoiding unnecessary injuries before Champions League important matches is something very important for both Real Madrid and Barcelona.
It should be noted also that many times Barcelona win their games by few goals. The problem this time is that Cadiz is weak and might drop off from La Liga next year.
So far Atletico Madrid was the team that profited the most from this round since they advanced by three points, got closer from Girona and away from Athletic Bilbao which were unlucky against Villarreal and their injury time goal!

That true and indeed both of them are focused on the UCL which prevents their main players from getting injured, this is something that every coach definitely does when the team they are looking after has entered round that is close to the final in an important competition.
Moreover, Real Madrid is guaranteed to win the La Liga title and for Barcelona it is impossible for them to win the title so for now both teams will only focus on the UCL and be more relaxed and careful in La Liga matches.
If in La Liga both team played seriously and with full performance then big win would definitely be easy to achieve but now everything is clear for La Liga and nothing can be changed regarding the position of the standings.
Next week we will see El Clasico and maybe Real Madrid can still win it.

Osasuna vs Valencia

Both teams is in the good shape because in the recent match they can beat their opponents that Osasuna can overcomes Almeria with final scores 3-0 and Valencia can win with narrow score from Granada and if we compared from recent performance between them Valencia a bit better because they only lost once from 5 matches and for the statistics Osasuna at home is actually is not so impressive because during this season they have already to lost 6 times but Valencia away matches records is quite poor because from total 15 away matches in Laliga Valencia only can able to collect 4 wins

For squad condition Valencia and Osasuna has facing similar problem because at least 2 players from them will not be available because of injured but i think it wasn't a big problem because those players who absense is not important players for them so basically whether it Osasuna and Valencia still playing wih their best players and about the outcomes of this match considering Valencia has poor records while playing for away matches then my prediction is Osasuna will being an the winner of this match and probably Osasuna will win with narrow scores and the bookmakers provide high odds for Osasuna win @2.29

The way the tournament is going to end up in this season has be showed among the top teams in this la Liga league table, because their performances in this season is what brought them to this position they are in the table and if anything will going to happen, it will not affect Real Madrid because they are in high position to win the title without any challenges from any team in their remaining matches. Barcelona will continue maintaining the second position till the end of the tournament, because they have prove to their fans that they are capable to win the second position to be among the teams that will qualify for next champions league competition. Girona has lose again in their last match that made them to drop down to third position in the la Liga league table, and they will definitely qualify for the next champions league competition because they still have strength to maintain this position never to go down more than this to bring honor to their manager and to their fans also.

This happens because in La Liga they have a distance that can be said to be safe, so they can take the risk of fielding their full strength in a La Liga match, especially when they face a weaker club, unless they are facing an equally strong club like in an El Clasico match. will be played after the second leg of the Champions League.

In the Champions League, Real Madrid have an even tougher task, because they will play at Manchester City's headquarters, unfortunately they still have a draw after failing to win the match in the first leg. However, even though they will be a visiting team, they will play as well as possible and beat Manachester City to qualify for the semifinals. Of course, that is not something easy for them to do, because Manchester City itself is a strong club and even according to the odds given by the bookies, Manchester City's chances are bigger than Real Madrid. I hope they can provide an interesting show.

⁠I don’t think Barca stands any chance though because 7 point gap is such a huge one to close against Real Madrid. So I feel both teams will maintain their play till the season end and Madrid will sure be winners of the league.

It is clear that there is no doubt that Xavi is more focused on the UCL because in Laliga it seems difficult to catch up especially since Madrid always performed well in the remaining matches at the end of this season with a series of wins and they did not make any mistakes that could give Barcelona the opportunity to reduce the gap in points. , but it seems true that Madrid will maintain their position until the end of the season and win the Laliga title this season because they are worried about failing in the UCL and being eliminated by Manchester City.

I think Barcelona is enough to be runner up in Laliga because Girona actually suffered a defeat when they faced Atletico Madrid yesterday, obviously that makes the point difference with Barcelona even wider, I think we can already guess who will be champions in Laliga this season and I think Barcelona will beat PSG in the second leg and advance to the next round in the UCL, even though they can't win the Laliga title, at least they can reach the UCL final this season against Manchester City or Munich who have the potential to get to the final.

Only one match remains in Week 31, namely the match between Osasuna vs Valenci which will be held at El Sadar Stadium. Looking at the statistics of the two teams, these two teams do not have a significant difference, but Osasuna is more favored because they will play as hosts in this match.
In terms of standings, Valencia is better than Osasuna and they are only 5 points away. Valencia is in 8th position and Osasuna is in 11th position in the standings. I think a draw also has a big chance of happening in this match, because as I said before the strength of the two teams actually doesn't have a very significant difference.
Victory will be a valuable thing for them, because if they win then they can improve their ranking in the standings. For Osasuna they will be in 9th place if they win and for Valencia they will move up 1 place if they manage to win with the distance they will have.

[rendravolt]

Real Sociedad were held to a 2-2 draw when they hosted Almeria and they again failed to win. Real Sociedad should be able to win easily, especially considering that Almeria has no hope of surviving in La Liga next season. Real Sociedad's winning streak was quite tarnished by this result and they remained 6th in the standings without any pressure from other teams.

Even though Real Sociedad could have secured 3 points at home, only Almeria managed to break into their goal right in the final minute which also ruined the victory that was clearly in sight. I really appreciate Almeria's performance where they don't feel sad or give up even though this will be their last season in La Liga and everything can still be done well even though the opportunity to leave the red zone is no longer there.

With high consideration of the point interval already given, I don't think any of the teams positions will change because, from the point and the game left, you will know that all the teams will try their possible best to maintain their position in the league, most especially for Real Madrid and Barcelona. They will not like to step down again for Girona to move any further, but they can still maintain their position at the third position in the league and that of Atlético Madrid. I don't still have high hopes for them because Bilbao will also like to be in the Champions League next season, and seeing that there are just four points between them will make Bilbao have hope for them, and in seven more games anything can happen, so to me, the only team that is at risk now is Atlético Madrid, which if they don't perform well, they will see the result.

Real Sociedad vs Almería
It is going 29' minutes going on but no one can score in this match, currently this match is very confusing for me because Almeria create the match position and on the others hand Real Sociedad is doing good on attacking like they are their shot on target was so close to goal. Anyway I have a doubt in today's are we can able to see any goal before the half-time. Anyway my prediction say that today both team will score and ended up Real Sociedad will win as their recent performance and other than Real Sociedad won most of matches against Almería.
Edited: Owh Really both team scored 1-1 between doing my post and on between only two minute.

Only 3 minutes after your comment, Real Sociedad finally managed to score their first goal. Until the match was finished, unfortunately it ended in a draw, Real Sociedad should have won if they had not given Almeria a penalty kick opportunity, this was a very hot one because it seemed that Real Sociedad could not control their emotions well.

It's heartbreaking to see Real Sociedad lose composure in a game they could have won. Late-game penalty? Mistakes like this ruin seasons. Frustrating? The hell yes. Still, it's not over. With seven matches left, 7 points is possible. This team's talent is evident. They need laser focus. No more mistakes. That means fighting for every point, especially against La Liga giants

High emotions are part of the game. Top teams channel their fire, not let it burn them. Real Sociedad can qualify for Europe if they execute. In football, belief is powerful, so we must think they can recover

The competition for fourth place in the La Liga standings between ATM and Bilbao will be completed in week 33, where the two teams will face each other to secure full points. On paper, I think ATM has a much higher chance of finishing in the Champions League zone, however, the Simeone fleet should remain alert to the opponents they will face in the future.

On the other hand, it looks like Madrid will win the competition for the La Liga trophy this season, although Barcelona still has a chance to get back into the race if they win the EL Clasico. However, realistically I think the points difference that has been established is enough to give Los Blancos a sense of security, and they have not shown any signs of performance decline.

Between the two competitions mentioned above, there is Girona in the middle of the competition, where Michel fleet has the opportunity to finish in runnerup position, and they could also be overtaken by ATM again. However, what is clear is that their opportunity to play in the Champions League next season is very big, Girona must work hard to create consistency in the remaining matches in the future.

[Velvet78]

Villarreal is capable of taking points from Athletic Bilbao, although Marcelino's team has a frankly weak defense, so this will significantly reduce their chances in this match. Simione achieved an important victory in the match against Girona and now has a comfortable 5-point advantage over Bilbao. By the way, Barcelona beat Cadiz and now almost certainly became unattainable for Girona. Of course, they won’t be able to reduce the 8 points to Real Madrid in the remaining matches, but Barcelona’s position in the table looks good.

I thought everything was over for Villarreal when they got a red card and Athletic Bilbao got ahead later on. However Dani Parejo who is their very experienced player scored the equalizer in the last minutes. I was really surprised to see that. Athletic Bilbao lost points in really comfortable condition and they must have scored their second goal as quick as possible. 

This must be a big relief for Atletico Madrid now as the gap between them is four points now. They can focus on their Dortmund game even more from now on to finish the job. From now on I don't expect Atletico Madrid to lose the fourth position as well. I believe they will make sure of it by beating Athletic Bilbao home in around two weeks.

I hope they can provide an interesting show.

When the schedule is busy and they are facing an important match, of course each team will make preparations and avoid bad things that will happen so that in matches that are not that important and against weaker teams they will not field their best squad to avoid bad things. Unwanted, that's what's happening to Barcelona and Real Madrid at the moment and I think that's quite normal.

Barcelona and Real Madrid are both teams that are focusing on the Champions League competition after in La Liga there is no tight competition between the two because Real Madrid is already too far ahead in points so it is unlikely that Barcelona will be able to catch up so they are more focused on the match in the Champions League.

In the second leg, Real Madrid will certainly have quite a difficult time because they have to visit Manchester City's headquarters, but all possibilities are still there for them, so what Ancelotti is doing this week by rotating a lot of players is for a clear reason, namely preparing the team as well as possible. maybe to look at the second leg match against Man City.

Sevilla managed to defeat their out of form rivals Las Palmas 2-0 away from home.Las Palmas were reduced to 10 men in the early minutes and we can easily say that this was one of the big reasons for the defeat.An early red card for defender Coco changed things for Las Palmas instantly. Las Palmas had the potential to beat Sevilla, but after the red card in the 6th minute they couldn't fully dominate the game.Maybe we can say that they played better than Sevilla, but with 10 men you are limited in what you can do because everyone has to perform extra.

Atletico Bilbao seems to have to bury their dream of playing in the Champions League next season after the draw from Villareal, currently the chances for Atletico Bilbao to qualify for the Champions League are increasingly difficult because indeed now they have been 4 points adrift of 4th place as the limit of the Champions League zone, like you, I also think if Villareal will lose after their players get a red card,  Santi Comesana was sent off by the referee for getting a second yellow card in the first minute of the second half and made Villareal's game start to look a little weak, and even several times the Atletico Bilbao players managed to threaten Villareal's goal, but fortunately Jorgensen was able to perform well to save Villareal's goal from conceding many goals.

After Villareal's players got red cards, the morale of the Atletico players at that time improved drastically and even they were able to score in the 66th minute to bring the lead to Atletico Bilbao, throughout the second half Bilbao continued to attack and even I think 99% of the victory has been theirs but unfortunately Villareal's penalty goal in the final minute of the game made the score end 1-1, At the same time, and make Atletico Bilbao must be far behind Atletico Madrid at this time with a difference of 4 points.

Today there is only one match in the Spanish La Liga. Osasuna will play Valencia at home. Osasuna beat bottom of the league Almeria last week. They had lost the two weeks before that. In fact, we can say that they have had a bad performance in the last weeks. I think their win over Almeria was a normal result. On the other hand, Valencia are no different from Osasuna. But Valencia have a chance to finish in the top 6 and qualify for the UEFA Conference League. It's hard to predict which team will win this match. I'll bet on both teams to score.

A draw in the Villarreal vs Atletic Bilbao match, however the match was quite fierce and both were very aggressive, unfortunately Sant commesana had to get a red card in this match, of course that is a story that I will not be able to follow again the last few matches of the season, in my opinion Villarreal was quite epic in equalizing because they did it in the last seconds of the second half match finished, It was beyond the expectations of many people in my opinion, I thought I would also get a win in this match because I bet on Atletic Bilabo and I almost cheered on my bet but the world spoke differently and I had to mope for a moment because it was very upsetting, the problem was the last seconds that made me lose my victory.

Of course in the standings Atletico Madrid got peace of mind seeing Atletic Bilbao get a draw against Villarreal because of this he became distant with Atletico Madrid and could calm down to get into the champions league next season without worrying about Bilbao taking it. And Bilbao needs to be careful for himself because the Europa League ticket could have been taken by Real Sociedad even though it was difficult but it could have been caught up without him realizing it.

Looking at Sevilla's statistics this season, they are quite bad in away matches and they got four of their away wins against average teams, but the victory over Las Palmas was greatly helped by a red card, but even though the home team played with ten players from the 6th minute but they were able to provide resistance to Sevilla and control possession of the ball, but playing with 10 players would certainly provide a gap which their guests Sevilla could prove to be able to exploit.
For Las Palmas of course this is very bad because they only got two points in the last seven games and they are just lucky enough to have enough points so that the decline in the last seven games does not put them in a bad position because they are already far from the relegation zone, and for Sevilla this victory doesn't change anything because they are safe from the relegation zone and it is also impossible to get a place in European competitions.

If Barcelona fails to win away against Real on April 21, it will be practically an official award of the title to Real. To maintain at least the appearance of intrigue, Barcelona needs to win; even a draw will completely ruin their chances. If we take the strength of the teams “on paper”, then I think that Real will win 3-1 or 2-0, but in this case a lot will depend on how the teams play the decisive games in the 1/4 of the Champions League. Depending on the result, they may have increased motivation or vice versa.

The el clasico game is indeed the only hope for Barcelona to stay in title race this season, because it will close the gap to 5 points. However, The chance is still small because the situation is not in their hand to make influence. They will need Real Madrid to drop points in two games while they have to win all the remaining matches.

I think Barcelona have a chance to beat Madrid, because they have been improving their gameplay and have good consistency and high morale after opening a big chance to reach Champions League semi-final. Having their important players back to the team after injuries has big impact to Xavi and the team that can make them look stronger than before. It's a impressive that are able to be in title race after having a bad start of the season. They need to maintain this performance till the end of the season and wait any chance to overtake Madrid at the top of standings.

At the moment, bookmakers' quotes for this game are as follows:

1.68 - 4.20 - 4.70

I would say that betting on Real Madrid looks like easy money. The only thing that confuses me is the non-guaranteed motivation for Real because they have the title in their pocket in any case, and their focus may still be on the previous game with City (no matter how it ends).
As for Barcelona, they have progress in results (although this is only against the backdrop of a more unsuccessful period), but I do not see that Barcelona has progress in the game. At least they can’t compare with Real Madrid.

[Roseline492]

Today there is only one match in the Spanish La Liga. Osasuna will play Valencia at home. Osasuna beat bottom of the league Almeria last week. They had lost the two weeks before that. In fact, we can say that they have had a bad performance in the last weeks. I think their win over Almeria was a normal result. On the other hand, Valencia are no different from Osasuna. But Valencia have a chance to finish in the top 6 and qualify for the UEFA Conference League. It's hard to predict which team will win this match. I'll bet on both teams to score.

You are right Osasuna and Valencia is the only la Liga match today and so far Valencia has shown some good improvement on this season even if they were not able to end up on the fourth position but the 8 position is also good and they still have the chance of going up more further to either on the 7 position or on the 6 position so they still have a chance to improve more. Osasuna on the other hand is almost on the same range with Valencia but I think Valencia is more on a good form than them, though there last meeting Osasuna win them but that was some months ago but right now Valencia is more in a good shape than Osasuna.
