La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[doomloop]

So far, Real Madrid and Barcelona have been confirmed to qualify for next season's Champions League, but there are 2 places that will still be contested by other teams before the season ends. Things can still change between Girona, Atletico and Bilbao and maybe we will see these three teams fighting for a place in the champions league later. Overall, Girona is actually quite far ahead with a difference of 7 points from Atletico and for Bilbao they have a very large difference of 11 points. So here Girona's chances are much greater than those of the other two teams.

However, if we look at the match schedules of the three teams, they are actually not in trouble, but it's just possible that with Girona's current performance they could lose points against Barcelona and Valencia. This could cause them to be overtaken by Atletico and shift their position. But on the other hand, if Atletico fails to sweep all the matches then Bilbao will be prepared to displace them from the top four. Anything can still happen and this competition is definitely very fierce.

I am having no doubt about this with any team can create problems for these four which are at the top with Athletic Bilbao was good, but suddenly we are having problems for them in last four games, and they lost 10 points which are enough for them to lost their chance for the Champions League spot there next game is also not easy while they are going to visit inform Getafe which is doing good job and beats Girona few weeks back even we are still have five games left in this season which are enough for having any change but most chances now we are going to have these four teams for the Champions League spots Real Madrid, Barcelona, Girona and Atlético Madrid because they are having enough points and space from their opponents for the qualification.

Mathematically Sevilla only required 2 wins again to survive at Laliga and their manager Quique Sánchez Flores was very optimistic he can bringing Sevilla to avoiding relegated zone and since Quique Sánchez Flores was handle this team on December Sevilla can gets 7 wins in Laliga so i think this is good progress because Sevilla performance was much better compared to under their previous manager and now Sevilla can occupy 13th place with collect 38 points from 33 matches

Last week Sevilla was slipped because they were unable to gets the winning result from Betis and next weekend they shouldn't be slipped anymore because if Sevilla draw again or even lost then their chances to avoiding relegation zone will be very slim and according to Sevilla schedules next weekend they will fight against Granada and on the paper this match should be easy for them but Sevilla shouldn't be underestimate Granada because surprisingly their performance has good progress even in the last 3 matches Granada still unbeated and the latest is Granada can beat Osasuna with big scores 3-0 so Sevilla should beware of Granada because this team potentially can makes them to lost points again

Sevilla with their last boss weren't able to stay up in performance this season. So unlike the Spanish side, this season they're found below the 10th spot. They've managed to fight up until December where there was a switch in the managerial position and thankfully they were able to experience a good level of improvement in games performances and results.

 Their boss between December 2023 and now have helped them out of the relegation zone and now they've got to strive to stay or move up above their current stand and this can only work if their able to win their final few games left in the league. As it is for every other team, any loss incurred now will affect their stand on the table and it's one thing that Sevilla will strive to avoid in these last games left.

 They weren't able to get the 3points last weekend but they're scheduled to face Granada this weekend. Their opponent is a team that are in between performances and can't be predicted and so don't underestimate them. Sevilla seems ready and fit to hold up pressure and Granada seems agile to fight back pressure and keep the game in their favor. We'll have to see the end result of this encounter this weekend.

The way the match went was interesting to watch, and I can also attest that Valencia also tried their best to stop Barcelona from winning them, but they later failed to do so. However, even before the red card, I have hope that Barcelona are going to win the game because they are stronger than Valencia, and the match is very important for them to win to continue securing their position as the second team in the table. Though I agreed that if Valencia did not get the red card, even if Barcelona won, it would be very tough and hard for them. 

And from what both Barcelona and Valencia played was interesting and Valencia scored first and that was a mistake coming from the goalkeeper and maybe he thought it was offside and his realization was already to late, when I saw the first goal I was surprised at what the keeper was trying to display making such error, few minutes later a penalty was awarded and what annoyed me with Valencia was the fact that they were leading with two goal they could not defend that two goals, lewandowski alone scored 3 goals. A valid point there that Barcelona is much stronger than Valencia and they dominated the game as if it was nothing.

And from what happened it shows that Barcelona wants to catch up and it is already late the only club they should watch over closely now will be girona because they are just two point away from girona on the table.

Valencia is one of the most inconsistent team in this league with mostly in early halves they lead and then give up with mostly they are having red cards which creates problems for them and same happen in this game even we have some blunders from the Barcelona, but they were able to recover this and at the end handed them thumbing defeat with the score of 4–2 which is good for them while now they are going to visit Girona which is also coming back into good touch after some bad weeks and lost of many points.

Robert Lewandowski which is having not good time with the hat trick in this game now having tally of 16 goals which is not bad at all but still Barcelona needs to have some good new generation players which bring better results for them and having challenging situation for the leaders Real Madrid in coming season in last few games they are doing impressive job even they are still had too many on and off the field issues.

[Ever-young]

In the second half of the match Valencia were down to 10 player, so Barcelona were able to turn things around and Lewandowski also managed a hat-trick in thematch. But I sure, Barcelona would not have gotten such a victory if forexample Valencia was still playing with 11 players too. Because after all, in the first half the fact that Valencia had won with a score of 1-2 and of course, that factor would make Valencia easy to maintain the victory that had been obtained.But unfortunately,the red card received by the Valencia goalkeeper made Valencia fail to maintain the victory it had in the firsthalf.

valentia experiencing one man down was what led to their defeat when G. Mamardashvili was given a red card the game changed and they lost confidence if not for that they had better chances of winning against Barcelona, R. Lewandowski scored a hat-trick a result of a man down, everyone knew that valencia is good, watching from the first half they you know exactly what am talking about, we know that the first goal was an easy one they the penalty given so there was no much struggle when they were winning, so if we were to rate both there play they have tried, and they were both lucky, but Barcelona was the luckiest.

I guess I can agree with you that Valencia's red card was indeed a huge disadvantage to them and more like a turning point in the game, but saying that the red card was the only reason why Barcelona won the game is what I'll disagree with you.
Cmon, Barcelona's superior skill, tactics as well as their teamwork were the actual reason that led to their victory against Valencia.
Without the Red Card, Barcelona would have still secured an amazing win, maybe it wouldn't be as easy as it went, with Lewandowski even securing a hat trick on the game.
They would've still secured a win even without the Red card.

Even though recently Granada has been able to show their best game because in the last 5 matches they were able to achieve 2 wins and one draw. In my opinion their hopes of staying in La Liga are quite slim because they are already far behind Celta, which is the safest place to stay in Laliga. Granada is 10 points behind Celta and only 5 matches remain in this season which I think will be quite difficult for Granada so I am sure Granada will be relegated this season.

Cadiz still has a chance to get out of the relegation zone, but I still believe that their steps will also be difficult because the opponents they face are quite difficult, like Real Madrid. But every effort will continue to be made because while there is still a chance they can focus well on finding victory and successfully getting out of the relegation zone.

In the last few matches Granada was able to get points from their opponents, but in my opinion for now it is too late for Granada to rise after they wasted a lot of points at the beginning and also mid-season, with the remaining matches against 5 teams stronger than them of course it is difficult for Granada to be able to achieve all the victories, currently Granada is below Cadiz with a difference of 5 points,  Granada still have a chance to end the season above Cadiz who also have a tough opponent in the rest of their games, but I don't think it will save them from the relegation zone this season because it is a safe zone that is certainly difficult for them to achieve.

In my opinion, Granada, Cadiz and Almeria will definitely be relegated this season, although the three teams may have a change of position in the relegation zone at the end of the season, for now the performance of Granada and Cadiz is far from good, between Cadiz and Granada, to be honest it seems that Granada will have the opportunity to regain promotion later because indeed they will be stronger in La Liga 2 like last season when promoted to La Liga this season.

Girona will definitely end up above ATM without a doubt. The third place is theirs, and that means that they are going to make a lot of money from the league, on top of that they are going to make a lot of money from selling some of their players as well (like savio) and they are going to make a lot of money for being in the UCL group stages as well.

All these combined could lead to nearly 150 million euros for them. Now that is of course amazing, there is really nothing bad about that part of this deal, btu the real question is that will they be able to stay consistent? Even with all that much money, if they finish next season 9th or something then they will never be good, so they need to figure out how they could end up with a better result in the end. Third is not must, but worst case a 5th is needed.

Girona has motivation for finish on 2nd or 3rd standings position behind compensation depend on the higher finish position, if Girona can reach 2nd or 3rd place actually will earn large amount of compensation from La Liga. Its good capital for Girona to earn money as their capital for first time appearance in UEFA Champion League competition behind the club history.
I think Girona will not sell their main players have been target by many bigger teams, they want impressive well for the first time in Champion League and keep reach the Champion League spot standings place for next season. Reach to second or third standings position is very important to get increasing bigger compensation for Girona, regarding with matches left they have to face Barcelona and defeat them make Girona will secure the 2nd place.

In my opinion, Granada, Cadiz and Almeria will definitely be relegated this season, although the three teams may have a change of position in the relegation zone at the end of the season, for now the performance of Granada and Cadiz is far from good, between Cadiz and Granada, to be honest it seems that Granada will have the opportunity to regain promotion later because indeed they will be stronger in La Liga 2 like last season when promoted to La Liga this season.

I agree with you. With the current number of points, Cadiz has a 5 point difference from Celta Vigo and Granada also has a 5 point difference from Cadiz. If you look at the current strength of the teams in the lower rankings, I think that the teams currently in the relegation zone will not change. Cadiz, Granada and Almeria must prepare to play in La Liga 2 next season.

If you look at the current statistics I think Cadiz is better than Granada. They have both achieved 4 wins to date but Cadiz have only lost 15 times and Granada has suffered 20 defeats. But I think both of them will return to play in Laliga. But I'm not sure about Almeria. It looks like they will have difficulty getting back into the league.

Barcelona is most likely going to win the second runner up this season and i don't want to believe otherwise because i believe Barcelona has been able to show in recent times that they are able to maintain the second position on the table without fear of loosing it as their performance towards the w d of the season got improved that if they were in this form before now, they would have been able to pose a threat to Madrid.

Looks like that will be the case, there are only 5 remaining matches left. And the difference in points with Girona is actually not that far, only 2. However, it is possible that Barcelona's opponents will also be able to handle them well in the final match. In fact, it's no different from being runner up or number 3. Because they are both in the qualifying round for the Champions League next season. But of course this is also related to prestige. How is that possible, Barcelona, not only behind Real Madrid, but also other clubs. That's why Xavi definitely wants them to be at least runners up.

Third is not must, but worst case a 5th is needed.

It has been a great first half for them this season, as they made the La Liga Competition interesting and at the same time,competitive, they was the only one club during the first half of the season to challenge Real Madrid for the top as we all saw them as potential winners of the La Liga Competition this season.
Everything changed whenever they come against Real Madrid during the both fixtures, they have had.
Hopefully they won't just be selling, as I expect them to add depth because they would be also going hard in the Champions League Competition next season.

With much game time they will be facing next season, I double doubt they will be able to make it back Into the first four top clubs in La Liga next season.

Dovbyk fly on 19 goals! Bellingham stay at 17, but he is not a stricker, remember!

There are players that are aiming for big winning but it's never consider easy but the best comes with ease and standing results. Bellingham have done a good job to put up a competitive race with other players in his first season in Real Madrid. Jude Bellingham is not a striker but he remains a significant attacking midfielder for Real Madrid. He did great to match up with the likes of Artem Dovbyk and Alexander Sørloth, he doesn't give up but maintain his incredible form and having deliver Real Madrid from tough times.

[lalabotax]

Yes, with these 2 goals, Girona got a very good win against Las Palmas. This is not a disadvantage for Girona, because Las Palmas is also a club that sometimes puts up quite a fight.

Girona started the current Spanish La Liga campaign on a very good note just like German champions Bayer Leverkusen did but Girona failed to remain consistent like Leverkusen who hasn't lost a league game this season. Girona gave their fans and football lovers across the globe the hope to dream that they might just win the Spanish La Liga title but failed to keep that hope alive

Yes, Girona was truly extraordinary, able to surprise us all with its achievements and being at the top of the standings for a long time at that time. But in the end they failed to maintain it, dropping to second place and are now in third place.

However, when compared with Leverkusen, it is quite different. Leverkusne has Xabi who is an extraordinary football manager. However, it is quite different from Girona. Moreover, to be honest, in my opinion, Girona's opponent clubs in La Liga are much stronger than in the Bundesliga, so Girona might have difficulty defending them in various matches against the top La Liga clubs.

However, it cannot be denied that Leverkusen really beat expectations and they have been successful in maintaining it until now. Yes, apparently Girona has done better and is still in the UCL.

Right he isn't a striker, but it's a bit confusing that he was able to score so many girls in the first half of the season and hardly scored anymore. First 19 games he had 13 goals and afterwards he scored 4 goals in 3 games only. He has still contributed a lot to this season's performance, but I at first he thought he could become the top scorer if he kept going like he did in the beginning of the season.

It was the same in the Champions League by the way. He scored in the first 3 games of the group stage and another goal in game 5, but no more goals afterwards.

Nevertheless, I think it is unprecedented how he is playing his position. I mean it's kind of funny to see the number 5 of a team play in the center forward position and then find him everywhere on the pitch. But he it's good for him that he is not egoistic striker, he really tries to choose the best option for his team in any game.

[Hyphen(-)]

If you look at the current statistics I think Cadiz is better than Granada. They have both achieved 4 wins to date but Cadiz have only lost 15 times and Granada has suffered 20 defeats. But I think both of them will return to play in Laliga. But I'm not sure about Almeria. It looks like they will have difficulty getting back into the league.

Statistically, Cadiz is better than Granada because they currently have five points ahead of them, but the nine of contention points is that, I don’t think their performance worth it this season and debating on who is better among them is not important since both of them going to the relegation at the end because they did not maintain to stay in the Laliga; Cadiz is going to relegation this season, Alemeria is also going to be relegated because they have just 14 points after 33 matches which means they win just one match this season.
While Granada is going back to where they belong.

Robert Lewandowski which is having not good time with the hat trick in this game now having tally of 16 goals which is not bad at all but still Barcelona needs to have some good new generation players which bring better results for them and having challenging situation for the leaders Real Madrid in coming season in last few games they are doing impressive job even they are still had too many on and off the field issues.

If Barcelona wants to compete for the league title next season against Real Madrid, this is the right time tey begin to look for players to join them for next season, they can sign young players and groom them better before the new seaosn begins. They don’t need to clear off most of their players because they are doing very well. They only need to fix the young ones coming with them to have a good squad depth by next season. Now that Xavi have decided to stay and continue with them, I just hope the financial crisis of the club won’t cause a big setback to the team and coach for the next season. Barcelona football is not bad till date, I just hope the can do better by next season as they’re planning to from now.

Both teams are quite a good match with encouraging performances. Barcelona are already having their second position on the table, but who knows how long it may continue since Barcelona is to face Girona in their next fixtures. Looking from stats, on their last two matches played, Barcelona doesn't have a good stats against Girona but I believe with the help of Xavi they may record a good win over Girona. If Barcelona can win Girona, which I strongly believe they will, then their is every conviction that Barcelona has secured the second position and a runner up, surpassing Girona with 5pts.

[Alpha Marine]

Sevilla with their last boss weren't able to stay up in performance this season. So unlike the Spanish side, this season they're found below the 10th spot. They've managed to fight up until December where there was a switch in the managerial position and thankfully they were able to experience a good level of improvement in games performances and results.

Sevilla have made some very poor decisions and that is what have led them to this place. They have hired the wrong managers and sold the wrong players, but the bigger reason as to why they're in the situation they are right now is because of La liga and Tebas. La liga makes things very difficult for la liga teams. Somehow, only Madrid doesn't suffer like other teams. It leaves a lot of questions. Some might argue that Madrid is better managed, which might be true, but does that mean Madrid is the only well managed team in La liga? Even Atletico Madrid are suffering.
Teams like Villarreal win an European cup one season and the next season they have to sell some of their big players because they can't keep them.
Something needs to be done or else, la liga would die off. If Barcelona wasn't in the league, la liga would be just like the Bundesliga where one team wins it for 10 straight seasons.

Barcelona football is not bad till date, I just hope the can do better by next season as they’re planning to from now.

The challenges that Barcelona will face next season are not only limited to the financial crisis they are facing and their efforts to build a squad, but the increasing strength of Madrid. If Los Blancos succeeds in recruiting Mbappe from PSG, we can imagine how hard Barcelona will have to try to win the trophy, but Xavi survival is another stroke of luck for Barcelona. Xavi remains optimistic about next season, even though he realizes the huge pressure awaits him ahead.

Recruiting young players or promote them from the La Masia academy is the best way to reduce expenses, even though it takes time to produce a golden generation again, I think that is the best scenario for maintaining the club existence in the long term. On the other hand, it is possible that Xavi will borrow players from other clubs again, or recruit players on free transfers as before.

We certainly hope that Barcelona can continue to compete with Madrid for the La Liga trophy every season, it really wouldn't be interesting at all if Madrid alone dominated the League all season long. Likewise with other contestants such as Girona and ATM, we hope that these two clubs will also be involved in fighting for the trophy. Especially for Girona, this is their best season and hopefully they can maintain their performance next season.

The limited finance to build a better squad and the increasing strength of Real Madrid are mutual exclusive challenge, not separate challenge. The purpose of building a strong squad is always to be a better team than rival. Madrid singing Mbappe is a big threat for any club, because Madrid already have a strong midfield. Having great and young talents in every position could make Madrid dominating the league next season and seasons after.

This situation puts Barcelona under pressure on their recruitment policy. Barcelona's board needs to give Xavi full support to build a strong squad. Laporta needs to not only make some good signing, but also address the medical department issue which is important to prevent players to constantly picking up injuries like what happened this season.

Jude Bellingham is not a striker but he remains a significant attacking midfielder for Real Madrid. He did great to match up with the likes of Artem Dovbyk and Alexander Sørloth, he doesn't give up but maintain his incredible form and having deliver Real Madrid from tough times.

Jude Bellingham is such a player that he's significance in Real Madrid can't be overly emphasized because he's performance so far has been really outstanding both in the times he has helped Madrid bounced back when it was looking they weren't going to have proper victory in certain game but then he has just been the very one they needed at the point in time when he gives off his incredible performance.

He's still very young and yet talented player and the fact that he's been a able to contend other players who would be considered top players even in his first time in Madrid is enough to see that he's got a future and will be really useful to the team both presently and in the nearest future. If he get Ms to stay in Madrid long enough I'm very optimistic about his performance in Madrid and in the fact that he's going to have a much more better future ahead because the team is such that has mostly winning mentality and helps you g talents as such getting to their peak.

Vinicius jnr is another player who's doing well in Madrid a d i think a combination of all of these alongside mbappe who's sais to be signed to the team soonest is definitely going to be a whole lot of improvement to the team and they are definitely going to make sure to be able to win even more trophies while staying formidable enough  as a team in every league they are going to play in by next season.

Barcelona is still quite far from their best in a league where they should be better off normally. They haven't been above the 90 points mark for a while now. That's the difference this year as Real Madrid hasn't been dropping as many points as they did last season. If they wan to be ready to compete with Real Madrid in the coming years, they will need some more top class players. Guys like Lamine Yamal could make difference very soon. It's once again the case that nobody really understands whether Barcelona will be able to invest larger sums of money into new players, but I guess they can't go crazy at all and instead will have to try to improve their team with maybe one ore two players from the transfer market while recruiting more of their own talents.
