La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24

[Ndabagi01]

Of course, as Real Madrid fans, we will be happy if Xavi stays because Barcelona under Xavi's guidance makes it very easy for Real Madrid to win, especially this season.

Lol, you guys have won Barcelona this season and are happy but forgotten that last season they were the league winners with the same coach. It is just a seasonal something for now until Real Madrid wins it again next season.

But I agree with you. Barcelona currently has no other choice but to hope that Xavi can stay at Barcelona. Moreover, if Xavi continues to resign, there will definitely be many clubs who will want to use his services. That's why, if Barcelona wants to keep Xavi next year, they have to refresh their main players, something that Xavi wants on all fronts. That way, Barcelona can return to being a respected team in both Laliga and the UCL League.

Their financial crisis is amongst the major factor that affected them this season. The players needed by Xavi were not brought in by the club because of their financial troubles. If this continues for another season, I don’t think we’ll see any improvement from the club and no difference from what we see this season.

I myself think three seasons is too fast if Xavi's grades fail, he can take Barcelona to the quarter-finals, he has won several trophies too, at least give him five seasons so we know whether he failed or not. Because the problem is that if he leaves, Barcelona will start from scratch again, then Barcelona will be destroyed again.

It was a good decision he was convinced to stay back, it was for the betterment of the club and they’ll see it when the new season begins. Xavi is not a very great coach but all the times he has spent in his coaching career is worthwhile to recommend him for a managerial role. He is the best man for the job now at Barcelona, so they shouldn’t allow him to leave now.

[Dzwaafu11]

At the moment Barcelona must be in high confidence because after all by looking at some related news now Xavi is rumored to continue to coach Barcelona for next season and this could be one reason for Barcelona to get a new burst of enthusiasm so that they can continue to be consistent until the end of this season .
Although indeed they have no chance of getting the trophy because their chances have run out after losing last week but on the other hand they are certainly still able to maintain second place because after all Girona is currently still quite close to them.

Barcelona performance is at high confidence currently, we don’t have to talk about their performance and the fact that they are at the second position if the table, I believe they will continue dominating their matches and even do more than what they are currently doing, so they can maintain their position in the table. However, their next match Valencia is not going to be a tough match for Barcelona because I have checked and I haven’t see where Valencia won Barcelona, so this make me believe that since Barcelona are also looking for a way to remain their position, they won’t take this game joke and they will do everything in their power to win this game.

This week match Barcelona will face Valencia which statistically they are superior but seeing Valencia's performance this season they also cannot be underestimated because their performance is very good but indeed 3 points must Barcelona get to get good momentum before the match against Girona.

Valencia are still far in the table, they are the 8th in the position, I think this is what Barcelona need to look and dominate to their match and win Valencia. Although, to me Valencia are not doing that well that will make me believe that they will win Barcelona, a team that stay at 8th in the position, I will rather give Barcelona or hope for them to win. Than to think of Valencia winning them.

Xavi departure will have a bad impact on the coming season because we never know whether a coach who has intelligence like Xavi will manage the existing players well without being able to bring in quality players like other teams.
persisting to stay with Barcelona is also one of the bad things for the achievements that the coach will get because being with Barcelona for too long will certainly not give you more experience.
I can't imagine what Barcelona will be like in the coming season without Xavi and it will definitely look very bad and the fans will definitely be very worried.

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.

 It'll be very much important that Barcelona management tried their best to get a good replacement for Xavi and finding the best option for them would be a bit difficult. There are prospect options for them but they've got to be very careful in their choices. Considering Emery as a choice, he's got an improved record with Villa and normally, Villa and Barcelona's level can't be compared so it's safe to say that it'd be a bit different to manage Barcelona based on their range of players and level in football.

 Barcelona isn't a team to be taken as an experiment. They won't be able to bear loosing their value and pride just because of them trying to make use of a manager who's not really had very much experience in a big team. Although, EPL is competitive than the La Liga, so maybe there can be a little match in strategy.

[TopT3ns]

Xavi is indeed a coach who can be relied on even though the club's situation is not very good financially. I personally would probably support whatever decision Xavi takes. But getting the news that Xavi will stay is the most pleasant news to hear. Because I'm sure Xavi will also be more motivated to make Barcelona better and better every season. And failing to win a title doesn't mean failing to be a great coach. Because being in second place is also quite good.

First of all, let's say that Barca always plays for the championship, there is no such thing as second place. No one is happy with being second. Great teams win trophies and try to be the best in every field they compete in. Let's keep that in mind, I think Xavi's decision is positive too. I don't understand why Real Madrid fans are happy. Now Xavi is more experienced and will have a better squad. Barca has overcome its financial problems. Real fans should be afraid. Next season will be different, a new challenge.

If Barcelona has started to improve its economic condition and all the problems in Barcelona have been resolved, then next season Barcelona will perform at full strength. Next season is the right time to win and become La Liga champions next season. For La Liga this season, it seems like Barcelona is having difficulty catching first place. We just need to wait for the new season to start soon.

[Weawant]

Real Madrid have shown more capacity and performance this season and with the way they are working hard to make goals and subsequently win matches, you will agree that they came well prepared for victories this season. Real Madrid are currently leading the La Liga table standing and still successful at the Champions league to play Bayern Munich in a semifinals. If care is not taking, having seen the level at which Real Madrid is pushing hard, they may likely take both the La Liga title and Champions league trophy like they did in 1955-56, 1956-57, 1957-58, 1958-59, 1959-60, 1965-66, 1997-98, 1999-2000, 2001-02 and 2013-14. It is also noteworthy to say that they are the only Spanish club that has achieved this feet, this plenty.

Madrid have been able to show much brilliance both in the champions league and the la Liga this season, they have aswell been able to show that they will be able to take over the league by winning the trophy this season and they are actually very much deserving of it because they have got the form a s the strength to be able to get to that point an  their productivity has actually been on the top of the table and they are currently getting the chance amongst all to win the league.

The fact that they may be aiming at winning a trio this season is actually what's really giving me so much interest in them for a team that actually wasn't looking like they will be able to achieve all this and now they are actually sure of the la Liga already but then they are at the verge of winning the Champions league too aswell but they only haven't been able to get pass the semi finals yet of which they even happen to be the favorite for.rhe semifinals by the end do their encounter with Bayern Munich. I wouldn't be really surprise if they end up winning the trophy this season.

The la Liga has been actually really competitive this season especially with Barcelona trying to get back to the top of the table with so.w good victories i. Their recent games which have actually shown that they are improved and are willing to get back to the top and possibly contend the top.of the table with Real Madrid but then Madrid isn't a weak team enough to allowing them get all of such chance at this time.

And Xavi's decision to want to stay at Barcelona is also very worthy of appreciation. because after all, we got to see how disappointed and depressed he was. However, in the end, Xavi was able to control himself and make peace with everyone. It certainly won't be easy for him to decide to finally stay at Barcelona, at least until 2025. But this decision is quite proud.

With the financial conditions that Barcelona is currently experiencing, it is the right decision to retain Xavi as coach. Because of course it will be difficult to find a new Barcelona coach who suits the players' playing style and also suits Barcelona's current finances. So this news will certainly feel very positive for Barcelona and also the fans who want Xavi to continue coaching at Barcelona. And for Barcelona players too, this news will certainly be very happy.

Surely, this is definitely a very correct and important decision for Barcelona Club. This is not only related to the financial problems they are still facing at the moment. but also the condition of the club is not as good as before, and Xavi is currently managing football enough for Barcelona's progress. And Xavi, was really willing to re-sign a contract with Barcelona even though he was very depressed and also felt that his efforts at Barcelona were not appreciated. So he decided to leave Barcelona.

However, Barcelona then succeeded in convincing Xavi to stay and coach the club. This is truly extraordinary. Yes, this means that Xavi will have to face various demands from management and fans regarding their achievements. And this will definitely again attract a lot of harsh criticism from fanatical fans who always want Barcelona to be 100% perfect. I often get annoyed with fans like that.

Xavi is wise enough, this is what Xavi said regarding his dramatic U-turn in Barcelona:

"I am full of hope, these three months have made me change, the players believe in it, and wise people are willing to rectify, here I am.

"It's not about ego, or money, I have energy, I see the fans are happy and proud -- it's a cocktail of reasons, above all the confidence of the president and (sporting director) Deco."

Few months ago Xavi Hernandez announced to the media that he's going to leave Barcelona at the end of the current season and even when he was queried of his decision to leave the club, he simply said that the visions of the club's management is different from what he has so it'll be difficult to continue working with the club. Few weeks later after his first statement he was asked if there was anything that might make him change his mind and remain at Barcelona, he responded by saying that nothing will make him remain at the club even if Barcelona goes on to win the UEFA Champions League title.
Last season, Paris Saint Germaine defeated Barcelona 4:1 to eliminate the Catalan club from the UEFA Champions League competition so I was expecting Xavi to surely leave the club since Barcelona who he said he's not going to manage next season even if they lift the UCL trophy didn't even make it to the semi finals of the competition. But to my biggest surprise, famous football journalist Fabrizio Romano reported that Xavi Hernandez will remain at Barcelona beyond the season after reaching agreement with the club president.

It's a truly wise U-turn change from Xavi and Barcelona.

I guess these U-turn decisions from Barcelona and Xavi mainly come from Barcelona performances in Champions League. Barcelona see light of hope from Xavi that he can help the club to perform well in Champions League that is very important financial resource for the club in future. They finally decided to choose a safe option, continuing with Xavi rather than starting with a new coach with risk of losing control in a next season.

[Uruhara]

Now Xavi is more experienced and will have a better squad. Barca has overcome its financial problems. Real fans should be afraid. Next season will be different, a new challenge.

Financial problems have actually been the main obstacle in the last few seasons. And if it is true that Barcelona has begun to overcome their club's financial problems then that would be even more encouraging news. Because of course in the upcoming transfer market, Xavi will have more freedom to choose which players he wants to get. But I haven't heard for sure about whether their financial condition has improved or not. But if I think back to the words of Javier Tebas, he seems quite optimistic in his assessment of Barcelona. So maybe we can also say that Barcelona's condition is slowly improving. Moreover, currently Barcelona has several young players that they can use. Which means this club may not need many new players. But some positions still need attention and new players still need to be acquired. We will probably see the answer from how Barcelona shops for players in the player transfer market later.

Tomorrow Girona will have their 33rd match and will face Las Palmas. This match will really determine Girona in the LaLiga standings. The reason is that if Girona is able to win this match, there is a big possibility that Girona will be able to shift Barcelona from second place in the LaLiga standings. The reason is that currently Barcelona has a fairly narrow point difference with Girona (2), so if they win this match, Girona can definitely be in second place for a while. Apart from that, if you look at the head to head record between Girona and Las Palmas. So far Las Palmas have never beaten Girona in their last 5 meetings. Of these 5 meetings, Las Palmas was only able to draw 2 times and lose 3 times. So it is clear, if you look at the head to head record, Girona is definitely superior to Las Palmas. Therefore, in tomorrow's match I am sure Girona can definitely win the match against Las Palmas and can take home the full 3 points. So if you bet on Girona in tomorrow's match it will definitely be better. And I would also bet big on Girona in tomorrow's match.

It seems unbelievable to me that Barcelona have solved their financial problems so quickly. The Barcelona team is not in a good position yet. The party is facing serious financial problems. And Barcelona borrowed a lot of money. So it is unlikely that Barcelona will solve their financial problems very soon.

Barcelona is far behind Madrid due to financial problems. Because the club is not able to add any talented and experienced players to the squad at a high price. Also not able to pay high wages to players. Barcelona's solution to this problem does not appear to be quick. Madrid on the other hand are making their squad stronger day by day. Maybe next season we will see the dominance of Real Madrid in La Liga.

Temporary replacement because currently Barcelona and Girona are 2 points apart and they played the same number of matches so I don't think it will have a big impact if Girona wins the match.
And I also think that currently Girona only needs to focus on maintaining its position so that it can finish in the top 4 positions in order to get a ticket to the Champions League next season.

This week's match against Las Palmas should not be that difficult for Girona even though the match is played at Las Palmas' home ground, but the Las Palmas team has a very bad performance now in the last 5 matches they have suffered consecutive defeats so it is possible that this week's match will also be similar.
If you look at the overall strength, Girona is also much stronger than Las Palmas.

If Barcelona has started to improve its economic condition and all the problems in Barcelona have been resolved, then next season Barcelona will perform at full strength. Next season is the right time to win and become La Liga champions next season. For La Liga this season, it seems like Barcelona is having difficulty catching first place. We just need to wait for the new season to start soon.

If Barcelona's financial condition improves it will be bad news for Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid who are trying to continue to beat their arch rivals for years and Real Madrid will feel quite a lot of pressure because Barcelona will return to being with a composition of players that is even greater if Barcelona can recruit players who are stronger than the last 2 seasons who can only borrow players for one season and do not have the money to buy the players they need and when Barcelona's debts have been paid off then there is no longer any pressure on the mind of the club officials and also the coach feels happy because he can buy the players he needs so far, Xavi has always racked his brain to come up with the best strategy with the players at Barcelona.

By the way, I was happy to hear the news that Xavi Hernandez had finally decided not to leave Barcelona, meaning he really wanted to show his dedication to the club that had made his name famous since he was a player and he wanted to return the favor by coaching the Barcelona club which had financial problems even though he could have moved to Another club made a higher offer but he still chose to stay at Barcelona, meaning he was sincere and wasn't just thinking about a big salary.

If you look at the overall strength, Girona is also much stronger than Las Palmas.

In the Girona match tomorrow I will not predict from the H2H results and it is possible that the H2H results can be a determining factor in predictions, but we also have to see how the two teams perform.
as @barisbilgili said, Las Palmas has had a bad trend of 5 matches and 5 consecutive defeats is not a good result.
on the one hand, from these 5 defeats, Las Palmas was also beaten by a much weaker team such as Almeria who managed to beat Las Palmas with 1 score and this is a sign that Girona has a very big chance of beating even though they are playing away from home, but if Las Palmas appears strong a bad performance, but Girona will easily get 3 points.

but if a surprise happens and Girona can't take advantage of this opportunity, maybe the H2H result as @Gallar said will definitely happen because in H2H the two teams have ended in a draw twice.
betting on Girona win is very convincing if you really dare to take that risk but you have to be prepared for the surprises that will happen, but I still believe Girona can get 3 points to shift Barcelona position for a while.

Sociedad vs Real Madrid

This is opening match for this weekend and Real Madrid is really in the good shape because they had successfully to eliminate Manchester City on Champion League and Real Madrid also can beat Barcelona at El Classico so although playing at their home i think Sociedad should beware because Real Madrid is on fire and previously both teams has been met this season on September and at that time Real Madrid can win with narrow scores and actually Sociedad want to gets revenge from Real Madrid but seems it will be very difficult because Real Madrid quality and recent performance is above to them

I know Sociedad recent performance is quite impressive because they were unbeated in the last 5 matches in Laliga but i think these records is not enough for them to beat Real Madrid and about team conditions besides Ferland Mendy who doubtful to play i can see Real Madrid squad in the good fitness and for Sociedad at least 3 players from them who got injured and recently i have checked the odds between them and i was quite surprised because the bookmakers placing Real Madrid as underdog team with odds @2.80 but regardless all of those odds i think Real Madrid can became an the winner of this match

[Strongkored]

The two teams are in very different conditions, and seeing this there is almost no chance for Las Palmas to make a surprise in the match against Girona later, especially if we evaluate H2H as a whole, even when both teams are in the Segunda Division, Girona wins more often than Las Palmas, that's the same in this match in my opinion, but Girona is currently getting random results more often, where they are also being defeated by weak teams like Mallorca, so Girona has to be aware of every possibility in this match.

I'm actually more curious about what Girona will do next season, because for this season it seems like everything is over for Girona where they have lost the opportunity to compete for the title and are also certain to remain in the top four, so what's more important is next season, How does this team fix their weaknesses that continue to appear in the middle of the season so that their performance continues to be less than good.

No matter how impressive Real Sociedad's performance looks, when they play against Real Madrid they must surely be defeated, real Sociedad is just a team that if Real Madrid is serious about winning the game they will beat them with 3 goals, it doesn’t matter the stadium Real Madrid play in, Real Madrid performance this season doesn’t mean home and away this season, they played very well in both home and away game, I know that real Sociedad will be very strong in the match because they are playing in their stadium but Real Madrid is always Real Madrid in every match, they always find a way to win even in 2 minutes of the match.

Jude Bellingham will not be part of the squad today, even Mendy, Fran Garcia will play Mendy's position and I know he can play it, he is very good in time of attacking and speed, but Ancelotti did not give him much chance to play because Ancelotti trusts mendy than Garcia, Brahmin Diaz will replace Bellingham in the attacking midfielder today and he is also very good in the position, on this match it will be very difficult for real Sociedad to defeat Real Madrid, is either Real Madrid win or the game end draw.

This is indeed an interesting match to look out for. The both team in their last three matches are no fire! Real Madrid won their last three match and Real Sociedad gained victory as well in their last three matches. Its not gonna be an easy task for Real Madrid here, you know they are in two competitions and they have one job to maintain the La Liga first position to win the title and they still have Bayern Munich to face in the UCL so that they can qualify tot he final stage. Not an easy one huh, because Real Sociedad wants to win this match so badly at their home with two reasons in mind. One for their fans to be happy and secondly for them to add more points so that Real Betis wont take the sixth position from the. Real Betis has only 3 points below Real Sociedad and it will just take one loss from Real Sociedad and then Real Betis would be in that position.

Xavi is indeed a coach who can be relied on even though the club's situation is not very good financially. I personally would probably support whatever decision Xavi takes. But getting the news that Xavi will stay is the most pleasant news to hear. Because I'm sure Xavi will also be more motivated to make Barcelona better and better every season. And failing to win a title doesn't mean failing to be a great coach. Because being in second place is also quite good.

First of all, let's say that Barca always plays for the championship, there is no such thing as second place. No one is happy with being second. Great teams win trophies and try to be the best in every field they compete in. Let's keep that in mind, I think Xavi's decision is positive too. I don't understand why Real Madrid fans are happy. Now Xavi is more experienced and will have a better squad. Barca has overcome its financial problems. Real fans should be afraid. Next season will be different, a new challenge.

I can see why people are so excited about Barcelona. Great club, fantastic history. But those money issues they were having? There but not there. Most definitely not. Because I work in business, I know how debt works. It's over you and makes it hard to move. While Tebas talks a good game, we need him to do something. Man, the trade market is the real test. Are they able to make big moves and get the best people? That is, without selling their best players? You'll know they're on the right track when that happens. At this point, I'm still not convinced. Absolutely fascinating, but let us wait for proof before making any claims

[Litzki1990]

Finally they did it.
Keeping Xavi is the right decision for Barcelona. Because it is Xavi who so far has the greatest potential and is able to manage the club from downturn. No coach or football manager is perfect, but Xavi did it better. even if they lose Xavi, who knows who can do as well as the Xavi Barcelona can get for now.

Source: Xavi has decided to change his mind and STAY as Barcelona manager!


And Xavi's decision to want to stay at Barcelona is also very worthy of appreciation. because after all, we got to see how disappointed and depressed he was. However, in the end, Xavi was able to control himself and make peace with everyone. It certainly won't be easy for him to decide to finally stay at Barcelona, at least until 2025. But this decision is quite proud.

As a Real Madrid fan, I'm pleased  
Of course, I don’t think that Xavi (especially given the fact that Barcelona has little choice) is so terrible, but still, the fact that he remains means that Barcelona will not be super strong next season. This is not only because of Xavi, but also because we can hardly expect Barcelona to seriously strengthen their squad if they leave a de facto crisis manager to work.

Of course, as Real Madrid fans, we will be happy if Xavi stays because Barcelona under Xavi's guidance makes it very easy for Real Madrid to win, especially this season.

But I agree with you. Barcelona currently has no other choice but to hope that Xavi can stay at Barcelona. Moreover, if Xavi continues to resign, there will definitely be many clubs who will want to use his services. That's why, if Barcelona wants to keep Xavi next year, they have to refresh their main players, something that Xavi wants on all fronts. That way, Barcelona can return to being a respected team in both Laliga and the UCL League.

I myself think three seasons is too fast if Xavi's grades fail, he can take Barcelona to the quarter-finals, he has won several trophies too, at least give him five seasons so we know whether he failed or not. Because the problem is that if he leaves, Barcelona will start from scratch again, then Barcelona will be destroyed again.

It is almost certain that Xabi will stay with Barcelona until next season, 2025. Currently, the club has extended the contract with this manager until 2025. Later, if he can show better performance, then maybe they will extend the contract with him. Barcelona had a bad situation at one time, but from that bad situation, it has brought this team to a much better position. There was a time when Barcelona were losing most of the matches in the La Liga tournament and their weakness was clearly visible at a time when many said that Barcelona might never come back strong but it was under this manager that Barcelona won the league title after Xabi took over. This season but Barcelona had enough chances to do well in the Champions League but due to some mistakes they were eliminated from the Champions League tournament. Barcelona won the league title last season, but this season they might end the season in second place. The Spanish manager will try to reinvent himself as he gets another full season at Barcelona.
