La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[tusandii]

Unfortunately, I don't Ancelotti will chose this option because he is not fond of reserving players. Unless he changes from his old ways, he will use his best sqard tonight and that will mean serious problems for their visitors.

In fact, in several previous matches, Ancelotti preferred to keep the main players to avoid injury, but who knows what Ancelotti is planning in today's match, we can see if Ancelotti uses the main players to face Alaves.
Meanwhile, Alaves is actually not a club that is too strong for Real Madrid, but I am a little confused about Ancelotti's goal in this match using Bellingham, Rodrygo, Vinic as the first players who will compete today.
In fact, if Ancelotti uses reserve players in this match, the result will still be a win because Real Madrid's reserve players also have very good talent and even though the results are bad it will not make any changes to Real Madrid's position.

Looking at the current formation, it looks like Real Madrid will score a big score in this match and maybe Ancelotti can't rest the main players for too long and chooses to warm up the main players so they can still have good physical condition but maybe they will only appear in the first half.

Yes Barcelona behavior at financial level is pure trahs, they are like the goverments, they keep sepnding and acumulating more and more debt without any plan to pay that debt, only wants to win something and have one magic transfer who saves them, and that is gonna end wrong clearly.

I can see some arabian guy putting money or owning Barcelona in a near future.

Yeah indeed their behavior in regards to their financial management is quite not encouraging because the club is being affected by it if not that with the help of their coach who was able to revive the club when they almost lost hope of going far on this season because with their performance then they never imagine themselves to get to the points they are now however what Barcelona needs is more good investors that would invest huge on the club just like PSG so that they will be able buy any players of their choice.

Although i believe that the management will be working on how to improve the club next season and even if they are not financially stable I believe that their could be chance for them to improve more because like you said if they have some Arabian Putting money on the club they would surely start making a very good impact more than the way they are now.

I agree with you on the need to use reserve in the match tonight because of the match they have with Borussia Dortmund which is more important than the already concluded La Liga match. The advantages of using the reserve is high such as avoidance of injuries for any of the major players and avoidance of fatigue. If the players have enough rest from strenuous physical outings, they will be in their top energy during the final. Unfortunately, I don't Ancelotti will chose this option because he is not fond of reserving players. Unless he changes from his old ways, he will use his best sqard tonight and that will mean serious problems for their visitors.

Ancelotti seems to prefer to secure victory even though Real Madrid are confirmed to be champions this season. And maybe the goal is so that the main players don't lose their sharpness. because sometimes being on the bench too much can make a player lose his sharpness on the field. And there are still about two weeks before the Champions League Final match. And maybe the main players won't play the full time in today's match. They just need to secure a goal early in the match or something and pull it out later.

I can see some arabian guy putting money or owning Barcelona in a near future.

I also can't deny this because I almost have the same thoughts about this club. But miraculously, despite this, we can still see that this club is always one of the second or first strongest. And in fact, if the Arabs then came to control, their fate would actually be better, as has happened to several clubs in other leagues. But one thing that is certain is that this club has been in financial trouble for too long. And actually they need a solution as soon as possible. Maybe they have fixed it little by little but other problems could arise if they don't solve the old problems immediately. But I hope a miracle does come to this club.

Coach Xabi Hernandez has successfully managed the players that the club could afford to achieve some level of success. Last season was better because they won a trophy but they have not had a good season currently. If nothing is done, the club will still struggle next season because they have not been able to come out of their financial mess. The Blaugrana still have a high wage bill because they have some top-class players.

The option might be to let some high-earning players leave at the end of the season. Players like Raphinha who earns about €240,000 per week might have to be replaced by younger and cheaper players like Lamine Yamal. The club has also shown the indication of letting Ronald Araújo enable them to raise to  €100 million ($109m) for the sale of the quality centre-back. And it seems Bayern Munich is interested in signing the Uruguay international. Selling some amount of stake to the money bags from the gulf will also be another viable option to safe the club from bankruptcy. 

Even at the stage where Barcelona does not have much money to work with they are still spending a lot of money for the wages of the players. Actually, they could easily reduce that. Real Madrid is currently the best squad in La Liga. there is no reason Real Madrid spends as much money as Barcelona for the players' wages. But they're still bringing in really good results. And it's also not like that players are also feeling discouraged to go to Real Madrid.

On the other hand, we have Barcelona. They were the biggest earners among all the football clubs. But now that is just history. Barcelona will have to start giving players lower wages. Another problem is that the situation in Barcelona is already not very good. And if Barca starts giving players lower wages I think certain players are going to be discouraged from joining Barcelona. If we give Barcelona enough time and if Barcelona makes some right decisions in the future, they are not going to go bankrupt.

Soon the match will start. And I think we can already guess how the match will go with the starting eleven that Madrid used in that match. I hope there are no unexpected match results in this match. Because I will bet on Real Madrid. Because I believe they can score at least 2 goals in this match. Even though Real Madrid has secured victory, I believe Ancelotti will still not let their team lose. because Real Madrid must continue to win in order to maintain the players' mentality so that they remain good ahead of the Champions League final.

Real Madrid can win this game easily, in fact I don't see any reason why Alaves can score at the Santiago Bernabeu. Ancelotti put in his best line-up in the first half and as a result they were 2-0 ahead of Alaves in 27 minutes. Jude Bellingham and Vinicius put Real Madrid ahead in the first half and the scoreline will only increase as I truly believe they can score at least 4 goals in this home game.

Ancelotti is likely to rotate his main players in the second half considering that they are almost certain to win the match. Arda and Brahim Diaz will find their place on the pitch and prove their quality again, but before that I still hope that many of the main players are retained in the second half.

But strangely, even though Barcelona has poor finances, the reality is that top players are still willing to play for Barcelona even though their salaries are reduced and even paid in installments. Honestly, I think paying salaries in installments is not very good but in reality, players who are treated like that can still accept that decision. So yes, if for example Barcelona were not owned by Arabs in the future, then I think Barcelona would continue to experience financial problems and of course, these problems would clearly have a bad impact on the team. I thought,Barcelona had such a big debt but strangely, Barcelona was still not given any punishment. If Barcelona were in Serie A, I'm sure Barcelona would have received punishment such as being relegated to the lower division or other punishment, but in La Liga in reality Barcelona is still fine and safe.

Arda and Brahim Diaz will find their place on the pitch and prove their quality again, but before that I still hope that many of the main players are retained in the second half.

Just in the first half, Madrid has two goals already and Madrid is using this game as a preparation for the finals in the Champions League, Let us just imagine that in the second half, Madrid would have scored another two goals. and even before I completed the sentence, they had closed the first half with three goals. so we should expect more goals during the second half. I am not surprised by this kind of play. Madrid is a big club that is in form and they know how to devour their prey. J. Bellingham scored the first goal and at the same time gave one assist and I was certain that Vinicius Junior would score. That is how interesting it can be.

Ancelotti rotating is not a bad idea at all. The man doesn't want to overwork his main players and since they have already scored three goals, there is nothing left in this game anymore so anything he decides will be in the interest of the finals.

[Antotena]

Thibaut Courtois; Daniel Carvajal; Nacho Fernández; Éder Militão; Ferland Mendy; Federico Valverde; Eduardo Camavinga; Toni Kroos; Rodrygo; Jude Bellingham; Vinícius Júnior

Courtois came back like a Prodigal son that was given a second chance to demonstrate his new change, he has done a cleansheet on 3 games on his appearances, this is a comfirmation that Lunin will not start on the final match between Dortmund and Real Madrid in the Champions League but it's cool, he is experienced, he is fast and doesn't give chances but I'm sure Lunin will be recognized in the end of the league.

Vinicious might be underrated with low number of goals but I think man deserves a place for the Balon D'or this season and if they win the Champions League, it's another assurance and confirmation for the Ballom D'or, the only close person from another club is Haaland.

This winning mentality that Real Madrid are currently on will definitely boost their moral towards the final especially the aspect of keeping a clean sheet because that will be very vital when they played because I believe its better to not be scored than to scored and also concede alot of goals by your opponent. When it comes to the champions league final and experience, I think courtois is better than lunin so he will definitely be a good start in the game.

[kawetsriyanto]

I agree, that Real Madrid's second tier players will certainly show their quality and potential when they are given playing time. Even though they only played against teams in the relegation zone, but Real Madrid's second tier players also didn't hold back and were still aiming for a good final result too, ofcourse. But at least, today Real Madrid will play at home against Alaves and I'm curious whether Ancelotti will play his second tier players again or not . Because after all,at least Alaves is also a mediocre team and as such, it is likely that Ancelotti will play his second tier players but even so, I personally will still be confident that Real Madrid will still win at the Bernabeu.

Real Madrid current squad has a lot of quality players. Their second tier players surely has a great quality, they just need to play more often. Unfortunately, the second tier players such as Brahim Díaz, Arda Güler, and Dani Ceballos have no enough time to play. Even if they have a great potential to grow as top players, it is difficult because they need to compete with the key players of Real Madrid. The player like Vinicius, Rodrygo, Bellingham, Valverde, Kroos, and Camavinga will be always the priority to put on the lineup. This is actually the obstacle of the second tier players, they must struggle to get a regular position in Real Madrid lineup.

I hope Ancelotti will give them more time to play against weak teams in the next season. The fans must expect to see the improvement of the players like Brahim Díaz and Arda Güler. Currently, these players make the people be amazed with their performance. They are great players with nice skills, they will be Real Madrid assets for the future. It is very unfortunate if Ancelotti doesn't want to optimize their potential.

[Ryu_Ar1]

It was nice to see the Madrid game today. The end of the season has not been an obstacle for them to be productive in fact their performance is getting better and that was evident in today's match where they actually played very well and got a full victory against Alaves which is actually Alaves playing very well in recent weeks .

The score of 5 goals is now presented and it is likely that this will be the end of Madridd party today . Madrid are unstoppable and the quality of their attack is really difficult to deal with which makes Alaves seem to have to give up with the dominance and confidence that Madrid showed in today match.

Valverde scored again finally after a long time without seeing the movement which is very sweet because for now Valverde is always pulled back but in this match he scored again and the current wonderkid Arda Guller again didnt waste the opportunity given by Ancelotti thanks to the 1 goal he managed to record in today match.

[ingiltere]

Real Madrid has a very comfortable win at home again. They beat Deportivo Alaves with a clear score of 5-0. Deportivo Alaves had opportunities in this match, but couldn't use any of them. Real Madrid finished the match with a clean sheet. Courtois finishing the match without conceding a goal could be a sign that he will be in goal for the Champions League final. Lunin has had a good season but Courtois is the main keeper in this team.

Their confidence and enthusiasm shown towards the end of the season is very difficult to unstoppable it seems that makes Madrid more confident in doing the match that is done even though they have managed to bring the trophy to the Bernabeu this season but they are still serious about doing the match and in my opinion it is a situation that deserves appreciation from Madrid.

Ancelotti also tried to make some changes to their squad including giving opportunities to young players although it was a little unfortunate in this match Fran Garcia was not given playing time but there was a new name where Mario Martin who was a player from Castilla was given the opportunity to compete in the senior club in today's match in my opinion it is also a very good thing.

An absolute win and an easy bet for Madrid in today's match.

[MK-74]

Arda Güler scored again, 3 goals in 4 games.
This kid is really a pure talent, as long as he gets playing time he contributes very well to the team.
There are two games left in the league, he will get a chance to play in these last two games, let's see if he can score goals in these games as well.
I hope he gets a chance to play in the Champions League final and he can show himself there too.

Arda's teammates love him very much. We can easily see this joy both in training and during the game. Modric's words about Arda and the words of his teammates prove how good a footballer Arda is. Today Arda, who came on later in the game, hit the ball very well and scored a goal. He contributed to the team's goal again.

The opponent was very weak compared to Real Madrid and Real Madrid played a comfortable match. The opposing team had many shots from outside the penalty area but could not score. Champion Real Madrid won the match again comfortably.

Barcelona achieved an important victory over Real Sociedad, previously there were doubts about their ability to beat Real Sociedad because the visiting team's strength was considered capable of making things difficult for Barcelona, who was struggling to reclaim second place from Girona. This result made Barcelona manage to return to second place in the standings, but the point difference is still very close to Girona so anything can happen in the remaining three matches.
Real Sociedad had to settle for being in seventh place after failing to get points at Camp Nou, the remaining three matches are a bit tough for Real Sociedad because they will face Valencia, Real Betis and Atletico Madrid. These teams will be obstacles for Real Sociedad to appear in the Europa League.

Barcelona's victory at home has led them to reclaim second place from Girona. I thought it was a good performance from Barcelona towards the end of the game, but Real Sociedad basically managed to threaten Barcelona a few times. Barcelona dominated their home games well, but I think they were not very good at taking advantage of opportunities, especially when there were good chances created throughout the match.

Today Real Madrid has won an easy match against Alaves with a score of 5-0 at home. Arda has again put his name on the scoreboard in every match he has played so far, while Girona, who is also playing at home, is still struggling to turn things around when they are still trailing 0-1 to Villarreal. If Girona loses this match, then their points gap with Barcelona will be even further if Barcelona wins in the Week 36 match against Almeria.

Real Madrid finished the match with a clean sheet. Courtois finishing the match without conceding a goal could be a sign that he will be in goal for the Champions League final. Lunin has had a good season but Courtois is the main keeper in this team.

Real Madrid doesn't think at all that they will actually be the winners without even greater efforts. However, that didn't happen, Real Madrid still played their performance as usual. It's just possible that the substitutions that Ancelotti is starting to implement are quite different because, however, they don't want any of their main players to get injured before the UCL final takes place. And now they are in a position that is still on fire to score more goals. yes, 5 goals from Alaves without a single reply. And that also happened in the previous match, the goal was even more.

Arda Güler scored again, 3 goals in 4 games.

He is actually a very talented player and has been quite contributive to his game time so far. He often makes a very good contribution every time he is used, even though he is not a starter. Yes, he just needs more time and that opportunity to strengthen his performance.
