La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Weawant]

Real Madrid defeated Cadiz, a relegation candidate, and perhaps relegated Cadiz.In a match where even 1 point against Real Madrid was important for them, Real Madrid did not give them that chance.They will want to finish the league with one defeat.Cadiz, on the other hand, could not reduce the point difference with their rival Mallorca in the last 4 weeks.It is a little difficult to close the 6 point difference in 4 weeks, but it is not impossible.For them, it seems that the struggle will continue until the last 2 weeks.Although they do not have much chance, they have to try until the end.

Actually you shouldn't be expecting that Madrid would have just allowed the game be won by Cadiz because they needed it to stay away from relegation meanwhile at that point Madrid was yet to be declared the winners of the la Liga this season I think if it were to be after the declaration they would want to do such but then the game of football don't do pity party except if it's a strategy to getting to probably rest players ahead of a bigger game.

Cadiz still have about four more games to see if they can find their way out of the relegation zone but then it's not really looking like what is obtainable because others too are aswell fighting too to make sure they don't get to be relegated and aswell finish in a good position, all these a re what they should have put to consideration long before now while they still had all the time in the season to be able to see if they will at least fight to staying away from relegation but then they were just struggling around till this time. Mallorca aswell wants to escape relegation so they will definitely not allow Cadiz to coming ahead of them.

If Cadiz were able to maintain a winning streak in three matches in a row I think it would have been very possible they get to close that six point gap but it would be on the condition that Mallorca may lose or draw one of their games in that three weeks when Cadiz is trying to make up for their six points for an opportunity to exiting the relegation zone on the table but then if they get relegated next season is an opportunity to try coming back to the la Liga again.

Some people were shocked by the Barcelona game, but those of us who have been paying close attention have seen this kind of possibility for a while. They know how to fight and are good at it; they just need to use it more often. They could be a strong contender if they can get rid of those ups and downs.  Real Madrid is a totally different animal. But the way Girona is playing now, with that underdog spirit fueling them? I'm not going to rule them out just yet

Barcelona's main problem this season has been their defense, they have started conceding too many goals and this has let them down at the most crucial moments. I can’t understand the reason in the defense or in the goalkeeper, probably all together, but if Real concedes 22 goals, and Barcelona concedes 43, which is twice as many, then it is clear that with such indicators it will be difficult to fight them on equal terms. Xavi needs to think about strengthening his defense.

In the battle for 2nd place between Barlceona and Girona, Girona has managed to be the winner for now.Girona, who hosted Barcelona, managed to take 2nd place from Barcelona with a 4-2 win at home.Barcelona was not very good in the second half after leading in the first half.It was not difficult for Girona to win in a match where Portu was the star of the game. Portu, who finished the match with 2 goals and 1 assist, managed to be the man of the match.We must say that this win of Girona against Barcelona will make their fans happy.Although both teams have played good football this season, it is admirable that they are still fighting as if they are still in the race even though they are not champions.

The competition to finish in the runner-up position in the standings will continue until the end of the season, in which I think Girona has a better chance of securing that place, because the opponents they face in the remaining matches ahead are relatively easier. Barcelona has two tough matches from the remaining 4 matches, if both of them can wipe out all the remaining matches in the future, Barcelona will finish in third place in the standings. Apart from that, for Barcelona this is a matter of setback, in which I think they are not willing to finish in third place. However, Xavi squad is powerless to maintain its position, and must be able to recover to create consistency again and make the best use of the remaining matches. Girona has been impressive this season, and they have made the competition for the top four in La Liga even more competitive, and we hope it's not just luck for one season.

2 times they met this season 2 times Barcelona also lost with a score that was quite striking from Girona, which made this a little hard to believe because it should be a place of revenge for Barcelona but instead they had to experience a humiliating defeat again.
With today's defeat, apart from letting Madrid win because the points cannot be overtaken by anyone, this is also a disaster for Barcelona because this defeat makes its position overtaken again and Girona is in the runner up now.

Although there are still a few games left to make a difference again in this case but still this is a bit regrettable for Barcelona because indeed defeats with striking scores like this they should avoid at the end of the season.
 

Girona made winning the trophy race to become short for Real Madrid, as they were able to come from one goal down to turn the game around in the second half, and scored 3 goals to win full three points, and at the same time take over the second position from Barcelona.

Real Madrid will be celebrating their victory as Laliga title winners in their next match. I can't believe that Barca was sleeping and allowed Girona to win them now that they are informed compare to the first leg. Girona really surprised everyone this season with their outstanding performance.

Actually, when looking at the game in this match Barcelona played very well but when looking at what they did in the second half it was much worse and made them finally inconvenienced themselves because indeed they made a lot of mistakes that should not be done.
On the other hand, in this match, especially in the second half, it seemed that Girona didn't need to create many chances because their chances always came from Barcelona themselves in the end

A result that was not expected but that cannot be regretted and this season because they already can't do anything even though they regret their poor performance because now they only need to make some schemes so that next season is even better.

Currently there are some situations that are quite a bit disturbing them where when looking at the tweets made by Fabrizio Romano


it seems that the agent and Victor Roque are a little dissatisfied with the opportunity given to the player even though he had a pretty good hope before but because of the lack of flying hours it seems that Roque is not too happy with it which could make some conditions that lead to disputes.

This time, Sevilla has continued its positive trend to continue fighting for a higher position. They managed to do so without losing in at least 5 matches of this season.
Sevilla managed to beat Granada with a score of 3 - 0. Not only that, they also completely dominated the game. Oh yes, this time, they achieved consecutive wins while competing at home, this is quite a good move.

The winning result from Granada is really impressive because Sevilla can win with big scores from that team and this result too makes Granada most likely will be relegated to Segunda division this season and actually upcoming schedules for Sevilla is not too hard because before facing Bilbao and Barcelona they will fight against Villarreal and Cadiz and i am sure Sevilla can able to stole points from those teams but because Sevilla position is quite safe now i think the results matches from their upcoming opponents will have no affect to their final position on League Table because basically Sevilla already safe from relegation

However, Sevilla's progress was quite rapid. Even though it's quite slow, it's not a problem. The important thing is, they can actually escape from the relegation zone. This was quite bad in the past when you saw that Sevilla's performance was always declining and very inconsistent. Until recently, they have been able to provide pretty good results. Yes, at least, they are currently in 12th position. If next week's match Sevilla can win against Villarreal, then there is a possibility they can take over Alaves' position. because Alaves' opponent is Girona, who are actually strong in the league at the moment.

I remember Xavi's statements that he probably won't be in Barcelona next year. Because of this, another coach will replace him. In order for the next coach to act in accordance with Barcelona's goals, he must ask for a certain financial power from the president. How can they get better if they can't transfer? I don't find fault with Xavi, he is one of the coaches who makes best use of the squad he has.

No, the lastes news is that Xavi will stay in Barcelona.
Joan Laporta and Barcelona were able to convince Xavi to stay with Barcelona until 2025. This must have been quite a tough decision for Xavi to remain there, but the agreement has been taken and there is definitely a special reason why he wants to accept him back. This is a very wise and strong decision from Xavi for Barcelona.
Check this, I ever replied this:

Xavi needs to think about strengthening his defense.

It's the goalkeeper, look at this statistic. How can the most expensive goalkeeper in La Liga stays at 5th ranks? he must be on the top, if he's just a mediocre, his market value should drop to 10-20 Million Euros.

It's better for Xavi to sell Ter Stegen right now since his market value is still high, then Xavi can use that money to get other good quality keeper e.g. Kepa, De Gea etc.

I don't have many expectations for Barcelona at the moment, especially as several of their mainstay players are suffering from injuries. In the match against Girona, Michel's team was able to beat Barcelona with a score of 4-2. Even though the competition is still open in the runner up rankings, La Liga is no longer exciting for me except when it involves betting. referring to Barcelona, ​​I don't have much to say, other than I agree with Xavi's decision to end his career at Camp Nou. Maybe with another coach, for example Hansi Flick, as his replacement, Barcelona can develop much better next season. In fact, for me Barcelona has quite competitive depth. Plus, the talent of young players who are able to develop is much greater.

Hasn't Xavi decided to stay for one more season? as has been reported and supported by Xavi statement “We have to change and improve a lot to compete next year. We can’t give away games like this”. This means there is no option for a new coach at Barcelona, after the failure against Girona it doesn't mean the hunt for runners up is over but as you said it's no longer exciting. For Barcelona and Girona it's just a matter of pride regarding the race for runners up. Meanwhile Madrid will relax and watch the two clubs fighting for second place.

Barcelona future all depends on Laporta policies, whether Xavi will fully get support to overhaul the squad. If I'm not mistaken, Barcelona getting a large injection of funds from sponsor NIKE might be good news for improving the team next season.

Of course Barcelona defense is a major problem that they have, but is it that some of their players are injured, because I could remember people singing praises of Barcelona after they started the season poorly, and was able to pick back their form. The fact is that Barcelona is messy this season, because it was these same players that they used in winning till this time, that they started losing.

Something needs to be done fast on their defense before next season if they don't aa g to end up like this season winning nothing and allowing Real Madrid to win almost all the trophies. They started poorly, and it looks like they will end poorly too.

As it seems Xavi will likely stay, I don't think he will be sack either since this money will be in a better use for them to get more players in case of similar situations of injury crisis though I have to agree Xavi still has to improve in his tactics and in his relationship with some players but I believe if he will stay the board will definitely have meetings about this with him since fans are getting tired of him

Valencia experienced shakiness again and this time they had to lose at home after Alavez managed to beat them in front of their fans. Alaves managed to steal 3 important points and this allowed them to climb to 11th position in the standings and managed to stay away from the bottom table.

I think Valencia will be able to enliven the competition between teams who want to compete in Europe next season and instead they continue to experience setbacks and it will be very difficult to collect points in the future. But if we talk about Valencia's next opponent, I think they can still win again when they host Vallecano.

It's true, this defeat took them away from the competition they should have been able to compete for a place in European competition, but the 3 defeats they achieved made them have to forget about that competition, because now it will be more difficult for them to do so. Not only did they lose, but they failed to create space or opportunities that would allow them to secure points in this match.

On the other hand, Alaves appeared as the visiting team, they actually played better than Valencia, so they were able to score 1 goal to ensure the 3 points were in their hands and they could go home with joy. This is a fundamental problem for clubs in the middle table, because they always decline towards the end of the season. In fact, the end of the season is actually a very crucial match so that they remain in the best position in the standings. But in fact it still happens to them often.

Valencia defeat to Alaves certainly surprised us all, because indeed so far Valencia has a pretty good performance compared to Alaves at this time, besides that losing 3 points certainly makes Valencia current job to be able to end the season in the Europa League later very difficult, I think with the remaining 4 matches that exist at this time it will certainly be very difficult for Valencia to compete with Real Betis and also Real Sociedad,  In addition, after Valencia dropped 3 points in the game against Alaves, of course, now they are starting to get pressure from several teams below them at the moment, I think with 4 games left and it can be said to be very difficult, of course it will be difficult for Valencia to end the season in the Europa League next season.

Next week of course Valencia should have an easy game, but I think we shouldn't expect too much for Valencia either because this season it's been difficult to see Valencia performances consistent and even often Valencia can get unexpected defeats from teams weaker than them so far.

Yes indeed, Valencia still failed to create a closer points gap with the teams in the top seven, and the defeat at home in the match against Alaves was quite disappointing. Because after all, although Valencia played at home, but Valencia also did not have as many shots on target as Alaves in the match and thus, Valencia failed to score in this home match. But indeed, the fact is that Valencia have been getting bad results lately too but about Alaves, at least lately Alaves have managed to get good results in each of their matches. Moreover, based on the head to head record also at least still shows Alaves is still quite good compared to Valencia and with that factor, then I think Valencia is still not strong enough to be able to compete for tickets for European competition.

Suffering three defeats in the last 3 weeks is indeed unnatural for the current Valencia squad. It is very difficult if luck is not on Valencia's side in the last three weeks of their matches. If Valencia experiences this for a long time, it will be difficult for them to compete for the European zone, because of Bilbao. Real Sociedad, Betis, are very strong to shift them from the European zone position so it is impossible for Valencia to improve their condition from three weeks ago.

Real Madrid defeated Cadiz, a relegation candidate, and perhaps relegated Cadiz.In a match where even 1 point against Real Madrid was important for them, Real Madrid did not give them that chance.They will want to finish the league with one defeat.Cadiz, on the other hand, could not reduce the point difference with their rival Mallorca in the last 4 weeks.It is a little difficult to close the 6 point difference in 4 weeks, but it is not impossible.For them, it seems that the struggle will continue until the last 2 weeks.Although they do not have much chance, they have to try until the end.

With this defeat Real Madrid really made Cadiz in the relegation zone and it will be very difficult to get out with the last remaining matches, the difference with Mallorca is quite far and will not be able to catch up, Cadiz must really accept that they can no longer compete in La Liga next season, but if you also think that against Real Madrid is a nightmare because they are the team that has the highest strength this season, not a small problem to be overcome by them.

They need to build up their strength again next season so that they can compete in La Liga again next season, do we need to say goodbye to the Cadiz, Almeria and Granada squads at the end of this season because they need to be replaced with new squads that have reached the point where they can compete in La Liga?

Previously i want to see Valencia can compete with Betis and Sociedad to gets one place on Europa Conference League spot this because under Rubén Baraja Valencia was change and this season they didn't fight to avoiding relegation zone anymore because Valencia performance is very consistent under him and Valencia was very strong when they playing at home because this season Valencia can able to playing draw against Barcelona and Real Madrid and Valencia also can beat Bilbao at their home so these records is proven Valencia has good progress compared to last season

But their performance is quite dissappoint because Valencia gets 3 losing streak and the latest is from Alaves which if we see based on the recent performance Valencia is much better than Alaves but in fact Valencia have to lost yesterday but it's interesting to see upcoming schedules from Valencia because basically they will not facing hard matches because their strongest opponents for next matches is Girona and Sociedad and if they can able to stole points from those teams maybe there is a chances for Valencia to finish at top 6 or Europa Conference League zone

Real Sociedad, Betis, are very strong to shift them from the European zone position so it is impossible for Valencia to improve their condition from three weeks ago.

This losing streak has made Valencia losing their chance to play in eropean competition next season. It seems like they have given up too early when they had chance to play in Conference League or even in Europa League. Standing eighth with five points gap with 7th position makes them having no chance to play in european competitions.

It's a shame that they failed to maintain their performance in this phase of competition. This losing streak can be a bad look for them, this should make them having a reason to win their next games. Playing with nothing to lose feels easier than playing with pressure to win the game. If they lose again in the next games, It will be a bad precedent of team that makes the board should evaluate their the team and management.

Alaves has definitely found the results to be in favor of them in the recent weeks. They have been able to win three matches in a row, wow . that is definitely something incredible. And that is also something that probably nobody expected from them.

By the way, it seems like I do not understand how the offside works in this game. Why was the goal from Valencia in the 75th minute was called offside?
The guy who actually scored the goal actually seemed to be onside. Someone please explain that to me. Or was it given because one player was offside, regardless of who scored? That is definitely not the rule as far as as I know.

Anyway, if anyone can actually explain that to me, it would be nice. But still a great performance from Alaves. It’s a shame that they could not score more goals because they actually hit the post multiple times if I’m not wrong.

With this defeat Real Madrid really made Cadiz in the relegation zone and it will be very difficult to get out with the last remaining matches, the difference with Mallorca is quite far and will not be able to catch up, Cadiz must really accept that they can no longer compete in La Liga next season, but if you also think that against Real Madrid is a nightmare because they are the team that has the highest strength this season, not a small problem to be overcome by them.

They need to build up their strength again next season so that they can compete in La Liga again next season, do we need to say goodbye to the Cadiz, Almeria and Granada squads at the end of this season because they need to be replaced with new squads that have reached the point where they can compete in La Liga?

La Liga has 4 games left before the season ends, Cadiz mathematically still has hope of getting out of the degradation zone. The defeat against Madrid was indeed insurmountable, it was clear that they were facing a major force in La Liga, where to achieve a draw would require a miracle. With the latest defeat to Los Blancos, Cadiz is now 6 points behind Mallorca, which is one level above the red zone.

At first glance, Cadiz is already having difficulty surviving in La Liga next season, but the other two teams, namely Granada and Almeria, are even more dying. These three teams have the potential to move down to the Segunda Division, fortunately Las Palmas and Alaves were able to survive after being promoted at the start of this season. Cadiz, Granada and Almeria are only points source for other contestants in La Liga, they need a lot of hard work to be able to come back again.

Even though the competition is not completely over, it looks like we can say goodbye to these three teams. Apart from that, to be fair we have to congratulate Madrid on their success in securing the La Liga trophy this season. Meanwhile, mediocre clubs have a lot to learn from Girona in the future, because Girona is able to compete in the top four of the standings.

Some people were shocked by the Barcelona game, but those of us who have been paying close attention have seen this kind of possibility for a while. They know how to fight and are good at it; they just need to use it more often. They could be a strong contender if they can get rid of those ups and downs.  Real Madrid is a totally different animal. But the way Girona is playing now, with that underdog spirit fueling them? I'm not going to rule them out just yet

Barcelona's main problem this season has been their defense, they have started conceding too many goals and this has let them down at the most crucial moments. I can’t understand the reason in the defense or in the goalkeeper, probably all together, but if Real concedes 22 goals, and Barcelona concedes 43, which is twice as many, then it is clear that with such indicators it will be difficult to fight them on equal terms. Xavi needs to think about strengthening his defense.

Yes, I agree. Even in the last few matches, the defense has made a lot of mistakes which eventually resulted in Barcelona giving away easy goals. And I think that’s why Barcelona is in the third position right now.

Otherwise, Barcelona could have been in the second position. Barcelona is currently looking at some players to actually increase the strength of the defense and also the attack. But I believe Barcelona should really look to the strength of their defense. Or maybe they should actually make the players that they have a little more better. Because ball control is an important part for any defender. If they are actually losing the possession in a very important place that is not acceptable.
