La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Ryu_Ar1]

Ancelotti also has to look at the compactness of the team's front line for this season because I see Vinicius very rarely gives the ball to Mbappe when there is an opportunity so that should not happen to a team, especially if it is about the front line of a team. I also hope that Mbappe can be better in La Liga especially in terms of scoring goals in every match because he is in a place that has the task of doing so so other players must be willing to give him the best pass in order to produce goals like Valverde did against Real Betis yesterday.

This is a condition that takes time because after all, when a club is filled with several talented players it is very difficult to unite them in a good chemistry because they will want to highlight themselves first to show that they are better than other players so it takes time to make players realize that in the end the chemistry and benefits of the club will be far greater than the benefits of the individual.

But if it can be minimized well then indeed everything will be better when the players can work together and eliminate the ego for a good club performance then we can definitely see that the situation will be very extraordinary for the club.
But looking at yesterday's match I actually saw that Vini is now giving more opportunities to Mbappe and it was seen when he didn't even take the penalty which he always did before but in this match the penalty was given to Mbappe and that indicates that the egoism between players is slowly disappearing and this is a good achievement because after this is over we only have to wait for prime Maadrid to return with the current squad.

We can say that Ancelotti is very confident in Kylian Mbappé's abilities. I heard that he warned his players to pass the ball to Mbappé's empty runs. He must be very confident in his shooting ability. He is not wrong about that either, he is very good at finishing. His first goal in the Real Betis match shows this. When the position was over, he got away and scored a very nice goal. He will slowly find himself, he will be more motivated as he scores goals.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti already knows the abilities of Kylian Mbappe just before he arrived his new club and that's why he wasn't happy that he wasn't getting those defense splitting passes each time he makes those brilliant runs. Federico Valverde made that deft touch of a pass in to open Kylian Mbappe and the French striker understood he needed to make a run to get the ball which I think can only be made by brilliant players who perfectly understands the game. I have never doubted the prolificity of Kylian Mbappe even when he wasn't getting the goals in his first three league games and I'm very happy he was able to finally score  two goals yesterday and would definitely be scoring may more in time games to come

Carlo Ancelotti is not just faced with one task alone. He is faced with the following tasks;

• Making Kylian Mbappe established in Real Madrid and remain the start boy he is known for .
• Making Vini Junior to remain the superstar he used to be without dropping form because of Mbappé
• Making other stars like Rodrygo, Bellingham and Valverder to remain top class without dropping in performance.

It should be somewhat clear to us now that Carlo Ancelotti has big challenges to overcome this season and not only making Mbappe to fit in thr team.

Mbappe is a new player so he needs to adapt to other Real Madrid players so I think the weak chemistry between the players and Mbappe at this time is quite natural, everything needs time to process.
If we talk about individuals I think Mbappe is beyond doubt, he is one of the best players in the world today.

I think Ancelotti is a fairly experienced coach and he knows how to make this team rise from the slump at the beginning of this season, and with the squad they have there is no doubt about that.

And the 2-0 victory over Real Betis will increase the team's confidence, especially for Mbappe who scored 2 goals in the match, of course there will be more confidence to face the next match.
There was no surprise for this victory because from the start Madrid was quite favored and the bookies set very small odds for Madrid's victory.

Finally Mbappe has started to make impact.    This was the first match in which there was a good relationship between Vinicius Junior and Mbappe as well. You know both of them have been playing quite selfish until this game.

It is nice to see this but we need to see it more. These two should get along with each other for Real Madrid to be more successful. Because the season hasn't started in a very ideal way for them in the league so far.  

By the way Mbappe is normally a LW. But he has been used as a CF for a long time. If it weren't for Vinicius Junior on the left wing then I would love to see Mbappe playing there instead.

It's really interesting how so much focus is on mbappe and almost every of his activity is been carefully observed by many probably because of the expectations that have been leveled on him since he was signed, I could see the joy on most discussant seeing he beginning to make impacts already in his new team, his goals are usually the highlights of the games as even his team mates share in so much joy seeing him making impact with them already, tho they have had a slow start in the la Liga, hopefully they will pickup soon at a rocket speed and at that point they are most definitely going to be unstoppable both in the la Liga and the champions league, that's my anticipation for them. probably ancelotti is trying out some strategy and that may be the reason mbappe seem not to have been played in his natural position but after now, seeing the results i believe ancelotti will Make the necessary adjustments.

[AprilioMP]

Is it possible that the executor of the penalty kick will be handed over to him while he plays?

I believe that even Vinicius is giving Mbappe more authority over penalties and focus on him as the main striker this season, and honestly not many players like Vini can do that without jealousy, he is a great example for team play and good attitude to improve the team results.

I also thought so with Vinicius Junior in the Real Madrid squad this season. What you believe about Mbappe, so remember when he was still playing with Karim Benzema while Benzema was still a mainstay in the Real Madrid attack line. Benzema became the top scorer at that time could not be separated from his role Vinicius. Therefore, the role of Vini this season will also be the same if on Real Madrid's journey on the target trophy in La Liga.

Is it possible that the executor of the penalty kick will be handed over to him while he plays?

I believe that even Vinicius is giving Mbappe more authority over penalties and focus on him as the main striker this season, and honestly not many players like Vini can do that without jealousy, he is a great example for team play and good attitude to improve the team results. Real Madrid is showing their strength starting from this 4th round after many issues and media reports attacking the coach and players for their performance. We cannot be sure until the next meeting now, and the white house should once again prove his power and recover against the leaders in standings.
In the other hand, Barcelona team are proving and working to build better strategies, tactics and gameplay to face their opponents in UCL, especially against Bayern Munich.
Winning LaLiga trophy for me is very depending upon the whole team to play together, as we have seen what Girona with young and new local players did, beside their great win against Barcelona 4-2 in both legs, would we see a revenge from them this season?

The connection they already had within short period of time contributed to what happened last night and you can hear what the coach said about the connection, the entire team and their fans will be happy because the team need to have some consistency which can only be achieved if these top three players will be in the same page.

Yesterday’s three points is very important for Madrid, and Mbappe has finally broken the deadlock as he has scored his official goal in Laliga. But Barcelona is also well prepared for the season, and if they have the consistency they started with, it will be very difficult for Madrid to cope because they are already four points behind Barcelona.

[Velvet78]

Do anyone envisage Jurgen Klopp becoming the next manager of Real Madrid? I see that happening up in my head.

Jurgen Klopp to return to managing? I'm not sure but I would love to see it a lot.    He is still leaving the door open for a return according to Fabrizio Romano.

After this incredible start I wanted to check out the odds:



3.25 for Barcelona and 1.50 for Real Madrid. Still a huge favourite Real Madrid are right?    However maybe I could wager some money on Barcelona to win the league title. You know it doesn't seem like that far of a possibility. Especially after watching both teams so far. I know it is only the first times of the season. But Hansi Flick is a winner manager with World Cup, Champions League and so on...

It is only if Barcelona drop form by having injured players that will affect their performance is when Real Madrid will be able to catch them up and overtake them but if they remain consistent without any issue, they will win Laliga. Also El Clasico match is what will determine if Real Madrid will overtake them or not when none of them drops point. It is impossible for these two clubs not to drop points till the end of this season. I believe Mbappe has started scoring goals and we will see more goals from him often.

[asrinur]

At least Mbappe and Ancelotti were able to maintain the position they played and according to Mbappe's capacity in his position, it only took time to create his first goal in La Liga, maybe in this match against Real Betis was a lucky day for Mbappe, it cannot be denied that he deserved to celebrate his first goal with Vinícius Júnior because there must be a mystery if these two figures become goal machines for Real Madrid.

It is not a problem where Mbappe is positioned because Mbappe can move to the right position for him if he can share roles with other players such as with Vini.
In their last three meetings, I admit that Real Betis is always difficult to beat. Even if Real Betis loses, the score difference is only 1.

Beyond what we are discussing, I want to mention that Mbappe has shown his business in front of the Bernabeu public when defeating Real Betis. Two of his print winning goals. Is it possible that the executor of the penalty kick will be handed over to him while he plays?

Mbappe's performance against Real Betis showed that he is indeed a world class player and I have never doubted his quality. I am sure that by scoring 2 goals, it marks the beginning of Mbappe to continue scoring goals in future matches and it is even possible that Mbappe will compete for the top scorer title at the end of the season.

[slapper]

Mbappe really showed his class in this game, after previously failing to score in the first three La Liga matches, he immediately stepped on the gas by scoring two goals against Real Betis and becoming the hero of Real Madrid victory. Now Mbappe has started to register his name on the scoreboard, his goal tap has started to open, Ancelotti really hopes that the former PSG player can help the sharpness of Real Madrid front line which has had difficulty scoring goals in the last match. Bellingham was delighted to see his team return to winning ways after only managing two draws in their last three games, his presence was eagerly awaited by Real Madrid players and fans alike as his ability is believed to improve the quality of Real Madrid attack.

Ancelotti also has to look at the compactness of the team's front line for this season because I see Vinicius very rarely gives the ball to Mbappe when there is an opportunity so that should not happen to a team, especially if it is about the front line of a team. I also hope that Mbappe can be better in La Liga especially in terms of scoring goals in every match because he is in a place that has the task of doing so so other players must be willing to give him the best pass in order to produce goals like Valverde did against Real Betis yesterday.

It all takes a process for Vinicius and Mbappe to have stronger chemistry but I think both of these players have quite good individual qualities so we just need time to see it all happen.
Mbappe's two goals in the second half to ensure Real Madrid's victory over Real Betis were not that special because Madrid were favored to win from the start but I think Mbappe's goal was quite important for him and the team to be able to improve their mentality and confidence to be able to build a much stronger chemistry between players.
Ancelotti is a very experienced coach so he knows what he has to do and with Madrid's new squad now we will see their strength slowly, I am quite optimistic about that.

Vini and Mbappe have great combo potential. Still, potential is only a word. We must see that week in, week out on the pitch. Mbappe's adjusting to life at Madrid. Ancelotti's has him playing closer to goal and more centrally. Right action. The child finishes; let him to do so. Mbappe will shortly fit the Madrid model. It is more ordered than PSG. That takes time, and patience

His goals against Betis shows good sign. Confidence is key. The more he scores, the more he'll feel at home. The magic with Vini will then begin to happen. The appropriate man for this is Ancelotti. He knows how to treat superstars; he has been around the block. He will get Mbappe at the necessary location. Madrid is working on something unique. Though the bits are there, it won't happen over night. Patience, Madridistas. Patience

Bookmakers evaluate current results as fluctuations and deviations from the average, so far nothing serious has happened for them to change their global estimates. Unfortunately, the face-to-face game Real - Barcelona will take place only in the 11th round at the end of October. I think that such a schedule is not in Barcelona's favor. By the way, the next game for Barcelona will be quite difficult - away to Girona. So far, Girona is clearly not the same, but last year they defeated Barcelona twice.

[Jossque]

Sevilla are also becoming a team that has been longing for a win for a long time, their squad is not bad but they are struggling to win games, losing 2-0 at home to last season's form team Girona, Sevilla are one of the 5 teams without a win as of week 4.
Getafe, on the other hand, drew with Sociedad at home. It was Getafe's 3rd draw in 3 weeks and although they played very well in the match, they struggled to score goals.They were certainly better than their opponents but they couldn't make an effective final kick.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are definitely the favorites for the la liga winner, for Barcelona Odds I think it's quite interesting, but Real Madrid is a pain if it's only 1.50, the bookie doesn't want to take risks about Real Madrid and they are very confident it seems.

As far as seeing the matches brought by Flick with Barcelona, it is very possible to beat Girona, last season maybe Girona was great but the current season is not necessarily and looking at the history of the last match one loss and one draw while the other two matches won, but for now Barcelona is much more likely to win.

I am sure that by scoring 2 goals, it marks the beginning of Mbappe to continue scoring goals in future matches and it is even possible that Mbappe will compete for the top scorer title at the end of the season.

Scoring goals and being able to contribute to the success of Real Madrid is the hope of Real Madrid fans when he was brought in from PSG even though he had made fans angry because he chose to survive at PSG when his news to Santiago Bernabeu had almost reached an agreement.

This is not only about the quality of Kylan Mbappe and as big as his strong percentage becomes the top scorer, but about how he and the team he defended at this time in undergoing targets in every season while he was there.
Real Madrid is not only Mbappe, but about their big names in La Liga and even bigger competitions in the European arena.

Real Madrid were the European champions without Mbappe and with Mbappe, they'll be stronger. The lack in performance by the team in early games could be due to the new players not matching the synergy of old players. When they develop as a team, Real Madrid would soon become the strongest team in La Liga and I have no doubt that Real Madrid are going to be the title winners for this La Liga season as well. They are already at number two and it would take some 10 matches more for them to takeover Barcelona who too is in a good form.

Real Madrid can indeed win the Champions League and they did that before Mbappe joined but don't forget that all of this was possible with the contribution made by Toni Kroos. This season Toni Kroos is no longer there, and if you look at how they played those 4 games, it's quite obvious that their rhythm is becoming monotonous and they lack creativity in midfield. Madrid could probably do better with Mbappe there and could possibly find a new solid rhythm (without Kroos), but it will take time.

[jaberwock]

If it is said like that then it will be wrong because not only Real Madrid but every team wants to win every match. In the two matches that Real Madrid drew, they certainly tried and played aggressively but they didn't succeed there, maybe there was something wrong with their strategy or they didn't play the strategy that they came out on the field with. Each team usually plays about 38 matches in a season. Real Madrid have failed to win two matches out of 38 matches but it can certainly be called a long backlog. 

However, the matches ahead of them must be taken hard and they should get full points in every match otherwise it will be difficult for them to retain the title of the tournament.

Real Madrid definitely tried their best and they failed, I think this time they did alright and Mbappe finally showed what they are capable of doing, this is why I believe that he shouldn't really be worried about any of these pundits saying anything. I know that he has been getting a lot of backlash for not scoring so far, but he finally did, and two at that, so I think he will be getting better scores now.

He is not pure striker, he doesn't wait in for tap-in scores, he is trying to create his own goals too, and he runs to everywhere, you won't see him standing around waiting for someone to assist him, he is running everywhere, trying to either get open to score, or at least draw the defense so someone else can score. This is why I would prefer Mbappe over any other forward right now, it's clear that he is doing as good as he can hope for and the fact that he is doing his best is important, it allows others to have a better play thanks to him as well.

[henmark]

Barcelona is looking a lot better at the moment, I believe that they are going to actually end up with something much better without a doubt. Real Madrid may have a good squad, but I slowly started to see what Flick is doing, I did not expected them to be this good, but it looks like we are seeing him do fine, which shouldn't really be a big deal at all.

I think it's clear that we will see Barcelona end up with a lot better results if they keep this Flick system going. Doesn't mean Real Madrid will be bad, they will be good, I just think that they are going to be fine with the current momentum, and that means Barcelona is ahead and could do better, there is no adjusting period for them, whereas there is an adjusting period for Real Madrid. This is why I believe that it has to be something that may not take that long.

[IvugeoEvolutionCoin]

In today's match of Spanish League Real Madrid vs Real Betis team, Real Madrid team won the match by 2 goals. Real Betis team players could not score any goal after trying hard. Real Madrid team is now in the 2nd position of the points table for which Real Madrid team is so good Able to perform.

A big surprise to see how well Barça's young talents adapted to Flick's modern style of play. I was thinking the same like you if they need time to properly playing under the new system, but i was wrong. They looked so confidence in doing attack, transition, passing even defending.

Flick and his barcelona squad seem a complete package for me. He can unlock the potential of many players. Even our old striker, Lewandowski, was affected by Flick's style.

This also changing my mind to pick them as a strong candidate to win La Liga. But, how unlucky me coz i have placed my outright for Madrid.
