La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[ndutndut]

Real Madrid won the match and they won by a big margin. But it must be admitted that Real Madrid's performance in the first half was not good. Even the next two goals they scored in the last minute of the match. However, after failing to score 3 points in the first match, Madrid managed to score 3 points in the second match by dominating the match.

Real Madrid have still not adapted to the changes in the team yet, i expected it though, they should not blend in at the beginning but when they do they will surely bang. We are yet to witness the performance of the three attackers and thats what everyone is waiting for, Mbappe, Vinicius and Rogrygo to cook but it doesn’t seem to be going their way yet. If it’s not yet working for them i think it’s good that other players are stepping up and getting the job done.

Indeed Real Madrid won 3-0 against Valladolid, but this must have been a tough job for Ancelotti because the Trio Vini, Mbappe and Rodrigo failed in this match. So many failed passes and so many disputes in this match. And they are still lucky to have super sup players like Brahim Diaz and Entrick who changed the game and scored two goals from two extraordinary players in 5 minutes.

But overall many Real Madrid fans and even Ancelotti himself want the Real Madrid trio to do more in every match but always fail maybe they still need to adapt. On the other hand, it is very obvious that in this match Real Madrid really misses a player like Toni who is able to determine the tempo of the game, this match is proof of that. There is no midfielder who controls the game.

I also hope Ancelotti must be firm with Mbappe with his current position, he does not need to be in Vini's area so that Real Madrid's game flows more. It can be seen in this match that Madrid's front line often looks stacked and tight with the opponent, Mbappe's face looks confused and disappointed with the lack of ball supply which makes him not confident.

Girona is already finished, they will be humiliated in Champions League.

I guess Girona is back become a mediocre team after the wonderful results in the last season, this will be funny if they're relegated from La Liga in this season.

Anyway, where's Alvarez? he play like shit in the last two match. Many people said Alvarez is already win in football since he already collects all prestigious trophies, but it seems he can achieve it due to lucky to born in Argentina and signed by Pep.

Girona has signed so many players like these in return for losing many important ones as well. But it looks like this isn't enough to keep a similar level this season. Dovbyk, Aleix Garcia, Savinho and more still don't seem to have been replaced by solid ones. 

Alvarez doesn't look like he has adapted yet. He isn't like Sørloth. Maybe the reason is that Sørloth has already been playing in the La Liga and scoring a lot of goals. Some players coming from other leagues might need more time to adapt.

Plus, Simeone's system is way more different than Pep's.

Atletico played very well in the match, I liked it a lot, the problem is not Girona, at least for this match. Atletico had a much stronger start to the season. It's not easy for Girona to achieve the same success, you shouldn't expect too much from them. But Atletico have made transfers that can play for the championship. I think Sørloth will score a lot of goals again and Alvarez will start contributing soon. Although they are not on the same level as Real Madrid and Barcelona, they have a squad that can challenge them.

[Alpha Marine]

Mbappe's integration into the squad has not gone as smoothly as expected. The Spanish Royal team is having difficulty finding the right formula to maximize the potential of the French striker.
But I don't think he needs to play on the left wing or anywhere else, he will score goals, we'll see. Mbappe has always been a great striker, quick and moving well without the ball. He missed three or four chances to score today, maybe because of the pressure around him. Mbappe joined a completely new league and system. It can be seen that all teams are on high alert with Mbappe and have strategies to lock down the 25-year-old superstar. Mbappe gradually felt the pressure on his shoulders after joining Real Madrid and becoming the center of European football throughout the summer of 2024. Give him more time.

This is exactly what I think too. I feel like fans are overreacting and this is because they were not realistic with their expectations. They felt if Mbappe can score 40 goals a season with PSG, he'll score 60 with a team like Madrid with better players. Mbappe will score lots of goals for Madrid but he needs to adapt to the country, league and team first.
I don't believe that Mbappe needs to move to the left wing before he can ve effective, on the contrary, it might be more difficult for him there because La liga teams don't leave that much space for him to use his pace and run in behind. He's not the best of dribbler in 1v1 situations but he's the best on the run and he might not get many opportunities to do that. All they need is to have a better understanding and chemistry on and off the pitch and they will play and score effortlessly and I know Ancelotti can do that.

[giorgione]

Mbappe maybe should be required time to adapt with Real Madrid ...

What are you saying, Mbappé is a great player, but we need to give him time to adapt to Real Madrid. We Roma fans, at least yes, we don't have all this anxiety for our players! And then, come on, if he doesn't even score an assist, then there's something wrong. I see him really angry with himself.

[Minor Miner]

You make an important point. Real Madrid won this match and they won by a big margin of 3-0. We are happy that Madrid got 3 points. However, Madrid's Vini-Mbappe-Rodrygo trio did not perform well. And that's why we can't be satisfied with Madrid's overall performance.

Madrid is a very strong team. However, if Madrid's Vini-Mbappe-Rodrygo trio does not perform well, the Real Madrid team will not be able to play well in the long run. Can't even play well in the Champions League. Real Valladolid and Mallorca were weaker opponents. However, we did not see a satisfactory performance from Madrid's attack. This is certainly a concern.

Ancelotti is trying to build a youth-oriented squad. This will benefit the Real Madrid team in the long run. Madrid can keep their squad unchanged for a long time. And Madrid's performance will be even stronger. But it is not an easy task. Even then, Ancelotti continued to try. Hope Ancelotti succeeds.

All they need is to have a better understanding and chemistry on and off the pitch and they will play and score effortlessly and I know Ancelotti can do that.

Guys, let's calm down a bit. Mbappé has just joined the team. He doesn't even know the players properly yet. A new country, a new team, new dreams. He will do all of these in order, he will get used to them. He has now moved from the French league he has been used to for years to another league. Of course, he could play very comfortably in France because he had no adaptation problems. There is also a serious difference in quality between the leagues. If he scores 40 goals in France, scoring 20 goals here is considered a success for him. Of course, everyone expects more than 40 goals here, but let's be realistic, scoring 40 goals is close to impossible.

[SUPERSAIAN]

Although they are not on the same level as Real Madrid and Barcelona, they have a squad that can challenge them.

This season, what I was most curious about was what Girona would do and a perfect match came along. Atletico Madrid was a very solid test for them and they had to do this test immediately. As always in Atletico Madrid, Griezmann showed himself and scored the first goal.

Girona could not respond to Atletico Madrid's fast game throughout the match. Girona seemed easy with this match, the opponents they will face will not be afraid of Girona.

Mbappe maybe should be required time to adapt with Real Madrid ...

[/quote]

mbappe does not need time to adopt because before the season started so he should have gotten use to playing with is new family and is not as if he going anywhere now so with the games am sure the adaptation is going to be automatic, because if is about looking for time to adopt then I don't think their is that time now to give mbappe, and their is a lot of people a very high expectation for mbappe to be the next legend that is coming from Madrid just like Ronaldo and even Benzema this are people that we can never forget, and I have a feeling he is going to surpass them all that's if he is consistent that is what matters.

What are you saying, Mbappé is a great player, but we need to give him time to adapt to Real Madrid. We Roma fans, at least yes, we don't have all this anxiety for our players! And then, come on, if he doesn't even score an assist, then there's something wrong. I see him really angry with himself.

They should keep calm and see the wonders that is going to be coming from mbappe because even if they rush him he wont do more than him self and the few games i don't think anything is wrong with the way mbappe is playing and he has a very good support around him, his going to perform well, madrid is usually lucky when it comes to players so if they are concerning about real Madrid under performing I don't see that happening currently so we should all keep calm and allow mbappe enjoy and play conveniently, they should give them breathing space because football is not as easy as we all think.

I think Atletico Madrid has a better squad than Barcelona. They have great players, especially in the attacking area. They have important players like Antonio Griezmann, Sorloth, Julian Alvarez. When De Paul, who caught his form last year, starts contributing to the attack in the middle of the league, we will see that they have an unstoppable attacking line. As for Barcelona, ​​no matter how good they seem, I think they will start to stagnate after a while. I think Atletico Madrid is in a better position in the race for second place right now.

After dropping points in the first week, Real Madrid made up for it a little bit with a win against Valladolid yesterday.Real Madrid did not allow their opponent to shoot accurately and won the match with 3 goals in the second half.The first goal was scored by Valverde in the early minutes of the second half and then they won the match with 2 goals in the last minutes.
Leganes, on the other hand, defeated Las Palmas at home with goals in the second half.Diz and Franquesa scored in the match and we can say that neither team played very well.

Villarreal vs Celta Vigo

Villarreal (confirmed lineup): Diego Conde, Kiko, Eric Bailly, Raul Albiol, Sergi Cardona, Yeremi Pino, Santi Comesana, Daniel Parejo, Alejandro Baena, Gerard Moreno, Arnaut Danjuma.

Celta Vigo (confirmed lineup): Ivan Villar, Javier Manquillo, Carl Starfelt, Jailson, Sergio Carreira, Oscar Mingueza, Ilaix Moriba, Damian Rodriguez, Alfon Gonzalez, Jonathan Bamba, Borja Iglesias.

Here we go for the three match of the season, Celta Vigo and Barcelona are currently leading with highest points because they are the only two teams the have win the their first two matches, and now Celta Vigo are playing against Villarreal at Estadio de la Cerámica, can Celta Vigo passes Villarreal to secure another win to make them maintain the top? Let's see how it ends.

Leganes, on the other hand, defeated Las Palmas at home with goals in the second half.Diz and Franquesa scored in the match and we can say that neither team played very well.

Leganes has had a good start to the league. They have not yet faced defeat in two matches. Their win over Las Palmas was also encouraging for them. They are playing promisingly for the rest of the league. I think not being relegated this year would be a success for them. If they are in the middle of the table, nobody would be happy with them. La Liga is a very difficult league and their primary goal is to stay in this league. As for Real Madrid, they made me doubt in the first half but they managed to win 3-0 with a very good game in the second half.

[Jegileman]

I also hope Ancelotti must be firm with Mbappe with his current position, he does not need to be in Vini's area so that Real Madrid's game flows more. It can be seen in this match that Madrid's front line often looks stacked and tight with the opponent, Mbappe's face looks confused and disappointed with the lack of ball supply which makes him not confident.

Mbappe should know from now that playing for a team like Real Madrid where everyone in the frontline wants to be a goal scorer can be hard for him to win plenty of goals with this team. If he happens to meet selfish players, he’ll be disappointed most of the times because the passes won’t be coming and will be a big competition between the three trios to want to be at the top of the team with more goals. Mbappe was a king at PSG but he can’t be another here because the condition there is different from what he’s experiencing here. It is better this players are able to come to some kind of acceptance between themselves and try to support each other and not looking for individual favour. They’re good, I hope they give us good results.

[rangga28]

Guys, let's calm down a bit. Mbappé has just joined the team. He doesn't even know the players properly yet. A new country, a new team, new dreams. He will do all of these in order, he will get used to them. He has now moved from the French league he has been used to for years to another league. Of course, he could play very comfortably in France because he had no adaptation problems. There is also a serious difference in quality between the leagues. If he scores 40 goals in France, scoring 20 goals here is considered a success for him. Of course, everyone expects more than 40 goals here, but let's be realistic, scoring 40 goals is close to impossible.

In addition to the adaptation factor, Mbappe may feel burdened because he is always touted as a new god at Santiago Bernabeu. I think that is normal, especially since this is still an early stage. Mbappe still has a long chance to prove his capacity and I think Ancelotti also understands the situation he is currently facing. Therefore, I strongly disagree if some people are too quick to judge something.

[CryptoBuds]

Girona has signed so many players like these in return for losing many important ones as well. But it looks like this isn't enough to keep a similar level this season. Dovbyk, Aleix Garcia, Savinho and more still don't seem to have been replaced by solid ones.

I think Sørloth will score a lot of goals again and Alvarez will start contributing soon. Although they are not on the same level as Real Madrid and Barcelona, they have a squad that can challenge them.

I think Atletico Madrid has a better squad than Barcelona. They have great players, especially in the attacking area. They have important players like Antonio Griezmann, Sorloth, Julian Alvarez. When De Paul, who caught his form last year, starts contributing to the attack in the middle of the league, we will see that they have an unstoppable attacking line. As for Barcelona, ​​no matter how good they seem, I think they will start to stagnate after a while. I think Atletico Madrid is in a better position in the race for second place right now.

I agree with you. Atletico Madrid's squad is very strong this season. Even then, the discussion about this group is very less. I would say this Atletico Madrid squad has the potential to dominate La Liga.

Atlético Madrid forwards have talented players like Griezmann, Alvarez and Correa. All three are excellent players. And they have the ability to change the scenario of the match at any moment. There are also talented players in the midfield like De Paul, Lino and Barrios. Moreover, Atletico Madrid also have a goalkeeper like Oblak. This team is very strong this season. However, if they want to win the title, Atlético Madrid must perform consistently well. I am not sure if Atletico Madrid will be able to play consistently well.

[Jossque]

Real Betis drew with Alaves.Real Betis dominated the away game compared to their opponents.Real Betis, who had 3 times the number of shots but were not very effective in front of goal, were disappointed to lose points here.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, got their first win in the league by defeating Girona, who fought fiercely with Real Madrid in the championship race last season, with 3 goals at home.Atletico led 1-0 with Griezmann's goal in the first half and won the match with 3 goals in the second half with Llorente's goal and assist.

Villarreal  0-1  Celta VigoAfter 25 minutes

In the first two matches against Atletico Madrid and Sevilla we saw good performances from Villarreal players. The match against Atletico Madrid was a 2-2 draw. And Villarreal team won against Sevilla. Can Villarreal win today's home match against Celta Vigo? Celta Vigo is not a weak team. It was difficult for me to pick a favorite team in the match. Both have a 50-50% chance of winning. So I refrained from betting on this match.

Celta Vigo scored in just 12 minutes to take a 1-0 lead with Celta Vigo striker Borja Lglesias scoring the first goal. However, Villarreal's players are also performing well. Villarreal's players are attacking a lot. Villarreal is playing attacking from the beginning of the match. Looks like they want to get 3 points in this match by any means. Villarreal players have already made 9 shots in just 25 minutes.

Edit: WooooooWW, Villarreal equalized the match in the 26th minute. Cardona scored a nice goal from Moreno's assist. Now the match is tied at 1-1. Hopefully we will see more goals in the first half.

[SmartCharpa]

Real Madrid performance wasn't good in the first half they were only in control of the ball as they dominated in possession but they only made one attempt which is not too good for a team with so many star players in it. We must accept that this is not the Real Madrid team we watched last season because they were better in performance during the beginning of the last season but they managed to win from the early second half and later scored 3 goals to win the match with a clean sheet.

Real Madrid needs to work on their performance because they will find it difficult to win matches when they play against a very good team like Barcelona and ATM if they continue to play like they did today.

Real Madrid players are not playing as a strong team, their performance in La Liga has been poor since they began the league, we never expected Real Madrid to perform this way with the players they put together, everyone expected Real Madrid to score at least three goals against Mallorca in their last two games, Madrid drew 1-1 against Mallorca, a team that lost their last game against Osasuna, and Real Madrid failed to win them. I don't believe playing Mbappe as a striker would produce the results we anticipate from this team since Mbappe cannot stand at the position, he is likely to move to winger because he doesn't seem to be comfortable playing as a striker. However, many people blamed Bellingham in their first game that he was selfish with the ball and wanted to score by himself and look at their performance in the first half against Valladolid. To be honest, Ancelotti needs to work on this team, the results aren't good, at this point, Real Madrid is expected to score 5 to 6 goals against any opponent they face.

[Ryu_Ar1]

I also hope Ancelotti must be firm with Mbappe with his current position, he does not need to be in Vini's area so that Real Madrid's game flows more. It can be seen in this match that Madrid's front line often looks stacked and tight with the opponent, Mbappe's face looks confused and disappointed with the lack of ball supply which makes him not confident.

Actually, there is no problem if we continue to use Mbappe at the center striker at this time even though he still cannot score in the first 2 matches this time but he in attack is still quite good at finding space and providing some shock therapy for the opposing defenders.
In the match against Valladolid, we saw at least 3 chances that he could get where 2 chances were saved by Hein and one chance off target but in my opinion it was a good thing shown by Mbappe.
Indeed, ideally he is placed in the starting position where he is a runner type and is still very suitable for the winger position but when there is Vini there, Mbappe can adapt well as a center forward.

On the other hand, in this match we can also see that Brahim and Endrick seem to be good super subs this season when the core players lose momentum and have difficulty scoring goals.
