La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Blitzboy]

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.

Surprise goal by Parejo! Villarreal down a man, Bilbao in control... then BAM.  That grit makes soccer great.  Atletico made a big break. They needed that, and they can breathe easier. Bilbao retreats, and Atletico focuses. They pursue Champions League qualification.

Listen, Atletico's got momentum now. Wins will come as they play for their future.  That Bilbao match is crucial. Win there, and Champions League is almost assured.  In their game to lose, these guys fight. I'm sure they'll succeed when life throws you a curveball like soccer.

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

Losing points against Almeria is a big problem for them. because the last team in the league was not playing very well, but they still managed to win 1 point from Sociedad. I think what Almeria has done is a great success. Meanwhile, Sociedad has to continue without mistakes to participate in the European cups. They have a strong team and I think they will be ranked.

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.

Football is a game that no one can know what will happen next with the players performance. Imagine Bilbao that was a threat to Atletico Madrid is now scared of losing their position to Real Sociedad as they are now a threat to Bilbao due to them not being able to win Villarreal. Villarreal is also strong and cannot be defeated easily by Bilbao, and that was why the match was difficult for Bilbao.

Atletico Madrid after winning Girona 3-1 will be happy that Bilbao did not take all three points yesterday, because now they can focus more on their Champions League match against Dortmund, to see how they can win or draw the second leg in Dortmund home. I know that after this week UCL matches ha e been played a lot of clubs will be relieved and focus on their domestic leagues, whether they qualify to the next round or not.

This week was a week in which Real Sociedad also lost points. Athletic Bilbao lost points by drawing, and fortunately, Sociedad also lost points. Most likely the season will end with these rankings. We have entered the last weeks and the excitement continues in La Liga. Barcelona deserves a lot of credit so far.

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.

The league is about to come to an end and now teams are all in the race for who will be trying to go up to the UCL for next season. One match for focus was the match between Villarreal and Athletico Bilbao as the result was to have some sort of effect on the position of Athletico Madrid in their run to finish in UCL spot.

 The match ended in a draw and it was one very fierce match as both teams were able to play so well and Villarel whom had a red card tried all their best and weren’t relentless till they got the equalizer goal. The goal was one big one for Villarel as they were able to salves a point but this draw wasn’t a good one for Bilbao.

 ⁠The result now gives Athletico Madrid some time to cool off and increases the point to over 4 and with over 7 matches to go you can see and understand how much points Athletic Bilbao must have lost. Now Athletic Bilbao must try not to avoid a repetition of this loss else they could be overthrown by Real Sociedad.

 ⁠This result goes on to show the importance of always taking your chances when you have the opportunity to and it also goes on to explain the unpredictable nature of footage generally. Football results cann change at anytime and in that match, you would expect Athletic Bilbao to feel relaxed especially after the red card given to Villarel well but football happened.

[Velvet78]

Real Madrid couldn't get a comfortable score maybe but a win is always a win. While they are especially making an effort to announce their La Liga title as early as possible these wins are very important. Barcelona are also unstoppable for many weeks here but it isn't still enough to drop the gap to less than eight points. 

Ancelotti is still insisting on not giving much chance to Arda Güler which makes me unhappy. This young man is trying to benefit from even a chance of a few minutes at the maximum level. Ancelotti also states he is really impressed with his talent. However I couldn't see him entering against Mallorca even in the last minutes.

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.

Hopefully the Osasuna vs Valencia match doesn't end in a draw because this weekend I saw a lot of matches ending in a draw. But for the Osasuna and Valencia match, I'm not sure it will end in a draw because Valencia will definitely try to win for a better position even though the home team will also do the same. Because Osasuna is also not a bad team when playing at home this season so Valencia should really be able to do better tactics today.

This week was a week in which Real Sociedad also lost points. Athletic Bilbao lost points by drawing, and fortunately, Sociedad also lost points. Most likely the season will end with these rankings. We have entered the last weeks and the excitement continues in La Liga. Barcelona deserves a lot of credit so far.

So far Real socidad has actually lost the chance of possibly seeing an opportunity to be in the top five after they drew their last game, but then they have actually been of an averagely fair performance this season only that they didn't get to improve well enough to get them the kind of attention they were deserving of so they had to be at the position where they are currently, they have never been a top team in the la Liga actually.

Bilbao may not even go beyond that fifth position they are maintaining which will mean they are not going to secure a spot at the champions league next season and so they may be playing in the Europa alongside Real sociedad by next season which i see as undoubtedly going to happen. Both teams actually haven't really been a top team but Bilbao has been actually of optimal performance this season and i at some point expected much more from them because they were actually up with the performance which will make one think they are most definitely going to maintain a spot at the top four.

Barcelona actually have to be applauded because they have actually beat expectations in that they were already at a point on the table where were least expected they will be able to get a come back to even be at the third position but they have actually been able to still maintain their stands at the second because it's obvious that the the first is already way ahead of them but i see very slight possibility around the top position for Barcelona.

[FanEagle]

I mean the season is over, Real will not lose that much points we know that much. However, getting closer means something good for Xavi, which makes people want to keep Xavi and not really have any other manager try for that. I get that it may feel like it is a big deal for Xavi to stay and I understand that Barcelona fans are super happy about him.

I think he already said that he is only willing to stay if he doesn't get financial trouble with transfers, he wants a player like Bernardo Silva or Kimmich which would be the reason to stay for him, that means Barcelona president has a single job, which would be getting either of those. Bayern seems to not want Kimmich and not signing contract with him, so that should be a possible transfer.

Ancelotti also states he is really impressed with his talent. However I couldn't see him entering against Mallorca even in the last minutes.

In the period leading up to the end of the season like now, Ancelotti will not take too big a risk, meaning giving more playing time to Arda Guler. Ancelotti will of course praise all the players in his squad, Arda Guler must be patient to become an important part of Real Madrid main squad. The competition to win the La Liga trophy this season is still tight, even though Real Madrid has an 8 point advantage over its closest competitor Barcelona. Ancelotti doesn't want to rotate excessively, which in my opinion could potentially lose points.

Barcelona will continue to try to pressure Real Madrid until the end of the season, and Xavi squad will maintain the opportunity to compete for the trophy again if Real Madrid loses points in the remaining matches ahead. One of the important matches is the El Clasico match, and Barcelona needs to work hard if they have the ambition to reduce the current point gap. Meanwhile, if Arda Guler is patient he will definitely gain more trust. Ancelotti knows the talent that the Turkish player has.

There's seven more games to play in the Spanish La Liga before the end of the current campaign which means that there are 21 more points to fight for which is why I don't think that the fight fir who wins the Spanish La Liga title at the end of the current season is totally not over until it's finally confirmed that the current league leaders have successfully won the league title. Real Madrid who are top of the Spanish La Liga will host second placed Barcelona on Sunday and the result of the match I think will determine if there'll be a nervous end to the league campaign or not.
Should Real Madrid win that game, they'll extend their lead at the top of the table to 11 points ahead of Barcelona but if the Catalan club succeeds in the game and get a win, they'll reduce their points difference behind the league leaders to just five points which will make the title race take a new twist.

Ancelotti understands a win in this phase of the league is the most valuable thing. He wouldn't expect to have comfortable game as the players could be under pressure due to the title race. Making it early to lift La Liga trophy is important for their journey in Champions League, because it can save their energy and reduce the pressure on the players. The threat from Barcelona can become bigger if they make a mistake, Barcelona still have chance to catch up.

At this point of the league, giving minutes of game for young players is the least consideration. Ancelotti won't risk their ambition to lift the trophy by giving gametime to young players. Arda Güler has to understand this situation as part of his growth as professional. We know Ancelotti is a great manager who understand the high intense of football competition.

The match that interest me much yesterday was the game between athletico Bilbao and Villarreal, one will think that the home side which is Bilbao would have win that encounter but it was surprising to me  how the event favorite Villarreal, Villarreal lost a penalty in the eleventh minute of the first half, though Villarreal tried very well after receiving a red card in 46th minutes into the second half, though the match was not easy for them considering fact that they conceded a goal in the second half but equalizing goal in the 95th with a penalty shows how determined they were in that match, the strength and determination i saw in the villarreal teams entails that they had put this effort earlier this season, they would have made a much difference in the spanish laliga,  despite how bad villareal has become in their performance this season, they use to be a strong team, in this game I must commend them for drawing the match with one man down as a cause of the red card shown to their player.

Because Osasuna is also not a bad team when playing at home this season so Valencia should really be able to do better tactics today.

Valencia is competing to go to the European cups and they will want to win against Osasuna. If they can achieve this, it is great because Osasuna usually has a difficult away game. However, the possibility of a draw should also be considered because a draw is also possible in my case. It will be the last match of the week in La Liga and I think Valencia will be the winning team in this match. We saw a lot of draws in La Liga this week, I hope we will watch a match with lots of goals.

I'm afraid that this match between Osasuna and Valencia may possibly end in a draw because Valencia is stronger than Osasuna and if not that Valencia have been backwards in the La Liga for some seasons now, they used to be competitive and even win bigger teams in the la Liga but they have not really been at their best for quite some seasons now. Valencia occupied the 8th position and Osasuna stands in the 11th position in the la liga table so I see this game likely ending in a tie just like some of the matches that also drew yesterday. Osasuna will use home advantage and at least earn a draw against Valencia in this game tonight.

However, getting closer means something good for Xavi, which makes people want to keep Xavi and not really have any other manager try for that. I get that it may feel like it is a big deal for Xavi to stay and I understand that Barcelona fans are super happy about him.

The point gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona is 8 points. Sure, it is almost impossible that Real Madrid will miss 8 points in the remaining matches. Real Madrid performance is getting stable, they played quite consistent and avoid the mistake in each remaining match. So far, Real Madrid only got 1 lose, it is a great achievement for Real Madrid.

I think Xavi has done a quite good job. Even if Barcelona should finish this season as a runner-up, it is not a very bad result. With the current condition of Barcelona and very limited experienced players, Barcelona still can compete for the title in La Liga and UCL. Barcelona fans will be happy if Xavi can stay in Barcelona. But Xavi looks like to leave Barcelona, he already decided his future.

I think he already said that he is only willing to stay if he doesn't get financial trouble with transfers, he wants a player like Bernardo Silva or Kimmich which would be the reason to stay for him, that means Barcelona president has a single job, which would be getting either of those. Bayern seems to not want Kimmich and not signing contract with him, so that should be a possible transfer.

It is something difficult for Barcelona management. They have a problem with the financial, they won't give much money for Xavi to buy new players. If Xavi wants to buy every player he wants, Barcelona management can't fulfill it. So, it means Xavi to have no chance staying in Barcelona anymore because Barcelona management has no ability to give much money.

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.

The league is about to come to an end and now teams are all in the race for who will be trying to go up to the UCL for next season.

 ⁠The result now gives Athletico Madrid some time to cool off and increases the point to over 4 and with over 7 matches to go you can see and understand how much points Athletic Bilbao must have lost. Now Athletic Bilbao must try not to avoid a repetition of this loss else they could be overthrown by Real Sociedad.

Football results cann change at anytime and in that match, you would expect Athletic Bilbao to feel relaxed especially after the red card given to Villarel well but football happened.

This is indeed very painful for Athletic Bilbao because they could not get a victory over Villarreal, but for me I see that Athletic Bilbao has worked as hard as they can so far, yes even though I know that they also want to compete in the champions league next season, but Atletico Madrid still deserves this season to be able to play in the champions league, Yes, although with the remaining matches in La Liga it can still be chased in points but we cannot have expectations that Atletic Bilbao can catch up and we also cannot have expectations that Atletico Madrid can experience defeat, maybe Bilbao itself will have to do it next week and hope for Real Sociedad in the final league match.

But I think it needs to be a gratitude for Bilbao if it can stay in 5th place because it can enter the Europa League, meaning they can get a pretty good progress from last season which can only reach 8th place in the La Liga standings, it is a sufficient improvement even though it is not as significant as what Girona did this season which raised itself to the surface of the top La Liga standings.

But I think the opposite of you, football is a dynamic game that can change at any time while the game on the pitch is still ongoing.

Yes, Xavi is the right coach for Barcelona but still, if the team still has financialproblems then of course it will make it difficult for Xavi to improve the quality of the team to be even better. Because even now, Xavi is still successful and has good abilities to provide good results for Barcelona. Eventhough indeed, thisseason, Xavi failed to bring Barcelona to get a trophy, but in reality Xavi still managed to bring Barcelona back to second place in the LaLiga standings and also, Xavi was still able to successfully lead Barcelona to beat PSG in the Champions League. Obviously,this result is still a goodresult for Barcelona, becauseBarcelona also started this season with badresults, but in the end Xavi still managed to provide good improvement for Barcelona towards the end of the season like now.

I get that it may feel like it is a big deal for Xavi to stay and I understand that Barcelona fans are super happy about him.

Xavi is not doing that bad with his career at Barcelona and the position he is about to finish the league on is still very impressive and not a bad one after winning the La Liga trophy with the team last season. Xavi recently interviewed again about his stance on exiting the club, and he’s still on that stand that he will leave by end of the season, and haven’t heard of any condition for him to continue with them after this season.

I think he already said that he is only willing to stay if he doesn't get financial trouble with transfers, he wants a player like Bernardo Silva or Kimmich which would be the reason to stay for him, that means Barcelona president has a single job, which would be getting either of those. Bayern seems to not want Kimmich and not signing contract with him, so that should be a possible transfer.

If this is the reason for him to stay back, then it shouldn’t be something add for the club to do for him. Generally, Barcelona has been a team that has financial issue and has not allowed managers to get the required players they want to play with. If they can do what he wants and stay back, it will be for their own good and also his.

This season's La Liga trophy almost certainly belongs to Real Madrid, Barcelona as its closest competitor is very difficult to catch up with the points collected by Real Madrid who are still consistently maintaining their performance, especially since the two of them have quite a big difference in points. Barcelona is in its best moment at the moment, the players are really enjoying the improvement experienced in the last few matches. It is recorded that Barcelona has played 13 matches without defeat since Xavi officially announced his resignation as head coach.

Barcelona will lose an important figure in the club if Xavi officially leaves in the end, the club must try to comply with his request if they don't want to lose a coach who has a philosophy that has been very synonymous with Barcelona's style of play. I think that is the only way to make Xavi stay at Barcelona for at least the next season.
