La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[KTChampions]

Im still very dissapointed by Mbappe performance in Real Madrid, but only him the whole squad is  playing below their capacities, but well Real madrid always do this show and when the hard times comes they show up and win anyways so nothing to make an alarm yet.

And yes before you ask, i was waiting to see Real madrid wiining and destroying his rivals like an easy 5-0 with this team full of stars.

If you lower your expectations on Mbappe, it would be better for you. He is playing in a team that a lot of the players are fighting to shine and also competing for the Balon d’or, what did you expect from them? They are playing well but they’re yet to integrate themselves well, everyone is looking for how they’ll be the goal scorer in the match and top the team. Real Madrid will get better in my opinion but expectations should be lower even though the team is going to be the best in the competition no matter what.

I don't think we should lower our expectations for Mbappe, because any striker at Real Madrid should shine, and if we're talking about the top players, they should break scoring records. But it’s also not worth saying that Mbappe disappointed in the first games, so how did he still score 3 goals + these were games against teams that were sitting on the defensive and hoping for a draw. It's hard for strickers to prove themselves in games like this.

It is natural that most Real Madrid supporters place high demands and expectations on Mbappe, but as explained by many friends in this thread. The point is adaptation, and that is what Mbappe is doing at Real Madrid and Ancelotti must understand the current condition of his players and I am sure that as a great coach Don Carlo will definitely find a way to restore Mbappe's best performance. Here we are just waiting quietly to enjoy the process and give full support to this great player, be sure Mbappe will make many achievements with Real Madrid in the future.

Above all, I believe that he is a great player because he manages to gather the team around him and not all players can do this.
For example, Imbrahimovic was able to drag an entire team along, as well as Gattuso or other players who become magnets for others, thanks to their character.

Ligue 1 and La Liga have significant differences in game styles and also differences in competition in the league, so indeed for madrid fans should be more patient and support Mbappe to be able to return to his best performance in scoring goals, besides that in several matches that have been played by Madrid it is clear that there is no good cohesion between the front lines and of course Ancelotti must be able to immediately overcome the problem,  Vinicius and Rodrygo have not had chemistry and also understand Mbape movements, so make they often it difficult to give good pass to Mbappe.

Talking about Mbappe character, to be honest I don't see him having characters like Ibrahimovich, Gattuso and even Puyol or Lampard, because we know that Mbappe's nature so far at PSG is too selfish and we can't deny that Mbappe does not have the character to be a leader.

[LUCKMCFLY]

But this season Barcelona is performing well with the help of Hansi Flick. At least I didn't expect to see such a great comeback from Barcelona this season. Barcelona's squad is not as strong as Madrid's. However, Barcelona's overall gameplay seems very stable to me. So there is no doubt that Barcelona will continue to challenge Madrid for the title until the end of the season.

However, we have to be careful with Barcelona, ​​they are a team that has been there quietly but is getting good points, and that is something that we have to see, when we focus on the league, we see that Madrid is one of the best clubs because they have a lot of money and have excellent players, but we must also recognize that their coach is excellent, but they cannot be careless, one mistake in the league and Barcelona loses points, so we have to be careful and not get overconfident, I see Barcelona doing well, which I like, so that when they face Madrid they do it with everything and I would like to see Madrid win.

Alarm bells sound at Real Madrid as fresh injury blow confirmed

Whilst news of any injury in the club’s ranks would of course mark a source of concern for Real Madrid, this one, in particular, is likely to set alarm bells ringing.

Carlo Ancelotti’s squad is dangerously short of options at the heart of defence at present, with David Alaba and youngster Joan Martínez sidelined long-term, and Jesús Vallejo continuing to struggle for fitness.

In the case of Militão facing up to any sort of extended spell out of action, the plan, based on Ancelotti’s past comments, would likely have involved the return of midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni to a place in defence for the weeks ahead.

It's a fact, besides that Mbappé is CR7's biggest idol and that is something that has motivated him, I don't know if you saw when he joined Madrid, his speech was practically the same as CR7 and his commitment to the club is such that he quickly learned to speak Spanish and that alone speaks volumes about how well he wants to be in the team and well he has excelled, before he came in I didn't want to, because due to what he showed at PSG he had an impressive ego, but of course now he is in Spain and things are at another level, so he has integrated very well, I hope it stays that way forever.

At least it does affect Mbappe but I don't see it from that point of view but indeed Real Madrid is one of the best teams in the world right now so Mbappe joining Real Madrid makes the possibility for Mbappe's career development in the future even greater. In terms of quality, Mbappe is also quite good so for Mbappe's performance with Real Madrid there is no doubt that he will be able to contribute greatly and show his best performance and regarding the current criticism, I think it's natural because Mbappe has just joined the team and still needs time to adapt.

In addition to being a big fan of Ronaldo, he is not only talented but also intelligent in many languages, when he was first introduced to Real Madrid many were surprised that his Spanish was so fluent.

However, there is a difference between the two, Ronaldo came to help Real Madrid win the Champions League title while Real Madrid brought in Mbappe to help Mbappe win the Champions League title. Because in fact without Mbappe, Real Madrid is already a superior team, but it is also possible that with the arrival of Mbappe, Real Madrid will find it easier to win many titles.

The problem faced by Mbappe this season, the Mbappe era is not like the Ronaldo era which was supported by friends to score goals. Mbappe still needs a process to be able to get chemistry with his teammates, adaptation certainly needs to be done because actually this is just a matter of his position not being suitable, he is indeed a pure Winger but at Real Madrid he was told to be an ST, of course he needs to adapt. Mbappe just needs to enjoy the process, later he will also get used to it and be able to score more goals for Real Madrid.

For example, Imbrahimovic was able to drag an entire team along, as well as Gattuso or other players who become magnets for others, thanks to their character.

In essence, Mbappe has managed to score his first goal in the match against Betis and not only that, because Mbappe also managed to score two goals in the match, and the match ended with a score of 2-0 and that was a goal that was only made by Mbappe. With these results and then the international break, maybe, when the league resumes, it seems that Mbappe will be able to do better to contribute to Real Madrid's victory. Although indeed, previously I was also quite worried whether Mbappe would be like Hazard who failed at Real Madrid, but in reality it was not.

After all, basically there is still a lot of time that Mbappe can use to really have and build good chemistry in the Real Madrid team. Also, at his young age, of course, Mbappe will really have time to build good results for Real Madrid so yes, I think there is nothing more to worry about.

[Weawant]

When someone has an idol, they will follow in their idol's footsteps and they will also try to achieve the achievements of the player they idolize. It is common knowledge that Mbappe really idolizes Ronaldo and he is very lucky because at the same time he can also play with Ronaldo as an opponent and now he is also part of the club that was Ronaldo's previous club.

Not everyone can experience something like Mbappe, who used to really idolize him and now he can play together even as an opponent. This is one of the portraits where he can face the player he really idolizes. I hope he can achieve success like his idol with Real Madrid.

Indeed the mbappe did found favour with the universe to the point it brought him this fate that has been his lifetime dream, not many get this lucky, as a matter of fact only but a very few do get this lucky a d it's one amongst a good number of persons.  I feel so happy for him having this blissful moments in his career because of ofcourse it will literally mean almost everything for him, I see fulfillment at its best in mbappes career. Tho a few players have had similar experiences but it's been a long while not in this modern football era.

[Leviathan.007]

There is a piece of bad news for Barcelona and it's about their superstar player Lewandowski. Robert Lewandowski was one of the best players and most effective players in Barcelona and they couldn't find any alternative player to fill his place yet in Barcelona. But Lewandowski recently played for Poland in the game they had against Scotland and he got injured in this game.
He had a good performance while playing for Poland and scored one goal from a penalty kick for this team but now his situation is still unclear and there is a chance for him to lose some games.

[jaberwock]

What is seen publicly, it is true that Mbappe made CR7 one of the factors that made him join Real Madrid. I do not deny his commitment in many ways, starting from his efforts to learn Spanish to his sentences and style when he was introduced in front of the Santiago Bernabeu public.
At PSG, everything can be obtained including an extraordinary salary. But there are other targets that are desired in his career as a professional footballer. If many people say that Mbappe will be the new generation when Ronaldo stops, I agree with that.

He grew up idolizing Cristiano Ronaldo for sure, he had his posters all over his childhood room so there is absolutely a connection there. Of course it is not a shock that Real Madrid also gets the best players, they have like 15 UCL's, and many of them were won in the last years too, they won 3 in a row, then another one after that, and then last year as well, 5 UCL's came within the last 10 years, they have 50%+ rate so far.

This makes players want to play for Real Madrid as well, Mbappe won everything domestically and sure if he went to Barcelona there would be a chance he could win la liga too, which means that there is really one reason to join a team like Real, which is to win UCL. I agree Ronaldo played a big part, but I think UCL also played a big part.

[fuguebtc]

The only way Barcelona can win the league title this season is when they play against Real Madrid in El Clasico and defeat Real Madrid, We should remember last season when Barcelona was at the top of the league table and after the El Clasico Real Madrid took the lead in the table, Real Madrid started playing last season with ending matches draw but after they play against Barcelona they win the match and top the league, Barcelona winning 7-0 is not something that will make us think that they can win the league title this season, Real Madrid never lose any match they play and I can't judge them or predict who is going to win the league.

We can't and should not speak so confidently about who is going to win the La Liga right after like 3-4 game weeks, hell, even 7-8 game weeks. That's more than stupid. I say that because early season games can be more deceiving than it seems because they cannot be the benchmark for how the season goes. Just because Barca won 7-0 in a game does not mean people can back them to be La Liga winners already, but also just because Madrid has a great squad which is certainly underperforming will be the main threat to Barca, or they are the only "good team" in La Liga. We have to credit the likes of ATM, Bilbao, and so many other good clubs.

Saying that winning the El Clasico is the only way to win La Liga is a wrong thing to do because at the end of the day, those are just two games out of so many. Yes, they can play a major role, but those are not the only games to win. To win a league, teams need to stay really consistent and needs to go through tough hurdles. Bigger teams also play in Europe, so things are really difficult for them to stay consistent throughout the season.

We all know that Barcelona players are very talented and they can play against Real Madrid but defeating Real Madrid is not going to be easy for them, Real Madrid players are very strong and whenever Real Madrid plays against Barcelona, Barcelona players usually get injured, Even if Barcelona have Dani Olmo Real Madrid will still beat Barcelona because even when Dani Olmo is in Leipzig Real Madrid used to beat Leipzig so I don't think we should think that Barcelona can win the league.

How Barcelona started the season is really impressive, and what Hansi Flick is doing with such young players has to be credited highly, and if things go right, they might surprise everyone at the end of the season. On the other hand, Mbappe just got his scoring boots on, which can make all of Madrid go further and further from here onwards.

I don't think it's a blessing, but it's appropriate. Kylian Mbappe is a Real Madrid fan and has always dreamed of playing for them, so it was a real dream for Mbappe himself when he became one of the players in the Real Madrid squad.

Kylian Mbappe can help Real Madrid win many titles this season if he is consistent with his performance, but the titles he is really hoping for are the Champions League title and the Ballon d'or. Real Madrid can certainly use Mbappe to defend its title in Europe, but we all know that whatever title is being fought for is never guaranteed for one team.

Sure. The thing is that Real Madrid wants everything to go as they want; most of them are not interested in any explanation; they just want to see Mbappe's performance, as they know him from his former team. They are forgetting that this is a new team and also a competition that he had not participated in before, so he needs to take his time and understand the style of play and also how his colleagues in the squad play. The Real Madrid fans want a quick result, which I think will be hard to see. All I know is that Mbappe will do well in Real Madrid, but he needs time to understand things first. 

[ginsan]

I don't think it's a blessing, but it's appropriate. Kylian Mbappe is a Real Madrid fan and has always dreamed of playing for them, so it was a real dream for Mbappe himself when he became one of the players in the Real Madrid squad.

Real Madrid can certainly use Mbappe to defend its title in Europe, but we all know that whatever title is being fought for is never guaranteed for one team.

Frankly, of course, there are many paths that they must complete as well as possible to be able to become champions this season. By joining Mbappe, of course, one of their important options they already have a player with the number 9 jersey that they did not have last season. Therefore, the presence of Mbappe is expected to bring glory to Real Madrid to defend the title this season.

Of course, Mbappe's great desire is to win the UCL trophy and that hope has been wide open after he joined Real Madrid this season. For that, will Mbappe be able to make his dream come true this season by winning the UCL trophy or will he also need a lot of time to achieve his dream. In addition, Real Madrid's performance is also getting better in La Liga by successfully winning 3 points in the previous match.

[AYOBA]

I think if Mbappe did not perform brilliantly well as expected in Real Madrid, the fault should be that he didn't play as a winger but a striker which is a big challenge for him to switch over to, because it is not easy for a player that is used to using only right foot to start using his left foot because that is what the coach wants.

That’s how the Mbappe performances supposed be for now, because everything is a gradual process. A player can just join a new team and understand how the patterns of the team be with in one month; at least he has to take a long period of time for him to observe the team's well; But for the switch over the position, I think it's not normal because there's know way a player who's using the right foot to switch to the left foot. How is going to balance? Even though that's what the coach wants, it will know go as he deeded.

I believe he just started and will definitely cope and key into the Rolex given to him. He is a world class scorer so giving him the task of a striker shouldn't be a big challenge for him to the point that he will decline in performance.

A time is coming that Mbappe will make positive changes for Real Madrid. Everything deserves enough time to understand. If the guy starts his normal form, everyone will be surprised, so there’s nothing wrong if his performances is not stable for the team’s. Since everyone knows how good Mbappe was be in his former club, that's how is going to be tough in the Real Madrid in fees week time.

[Fiatless]

Club owners don't want any excuses. This is the reason why they give coaches everything they ask including the best players. Coach Carlo Ancelotti wanted Kylian Mbappé and maybe he told the board members that Real Madrid will be unstoppable if the Frenchman is brought to Santiago Bernabéu. I will start judging the player after ten games. The League is still fresh and he has scored some important goals. Mbappe will be successful in Real if there is a good relationship between the players.

[Ryu_Ar1]

We all know that Barcelona players are very talented and they can play against Real Madrid but defeating Real Madrid is not going to be easy for them, Real Madrid players are very strong and whenever Real Madrid plays against Barcelona, Barcelona players usually get injured, Even if Barcelona have Dani Olmo Real Madrid will still beat Barcelona because even when Dani Olmo is in Leipzig Real Madrid used to beat Leipzig so I don't think we should think that Barcelona can win the league.

On the other hand, Mbappe just got his scoring boots on, which can make all of Madrid go further and further from here onwards.

We'll just have to see whether or not the increasingly busy schedule will change Flick's performance because in the end, with the current conditions, we must realize that what Flick showed at the beginning of this season was indeed very good. But in the end this condition is very natural for Barcelona even at the beginning of last season Xavi also did the same thing but in the end at the end of the season he lost momentum which made him lose his way and failed in the competition that was undertaken.

This situation can still happen for Flick if he doesn't really make stability in performance always the same and that's what Flick has to think about now because he won't be able to just be satisfied in the current condition even though he has done good things at the beginning of this season.

[Cryptoprincess101]

I can't really say which club between Barcelona and Real Madrid will win La Liga. It seems to me that the competition is just getting even stricter compared to last season. Either Barcelona or Real Madrid showed their strength in the first three games of La Liga. But Barcelona looked even more promising than Real Madrid.



Even though the odds still favor Real Madrid, they are tightening for Barcelona. It means a bad sign for all of Madrid's bettors.

Madrid needed to perform better to defend their title. If not, Barcelona would take the trophy from them.

The bookies give these odds by considering Real Madrid's strength and it is still reasonable if El Real is favored, even though Real Madrid has not performed optimally in this new season, Los Blancos still have time to return to winning ways and catch up. We know that Barcelona started the season very well, but it is possible that Barca will also experience a decline in performance in the upcoming matches. So at this time we cannot be sure who the next king will be who will top the standings until the end.

I think the bookmakers are just being so confident about Real Madrid due to the quality of the squad as they believe that they can still come back to winning ways even after losing 4 points out of the 4 matches they have played so far and another thing that could make the bookmakers not to change the odds about the possibility of Real Madrid to win the la Liga is due to the fact that a lot of people must have staked on Real Madrid to still win the la Liga this season so this are some of the reasons why bookmakers doesn't change the odds earlier. I know the season is still young to determine who's going to finally win the trophy but Barcelona started well and they are aware of the dangers that they will face if they lose points and Madrid match up with them so they will basically try their best to maintain good form within this early stage of the league and from the 7:0 win against Real Valladolid made me have the feelings that Barcelona really want to make use of this early advantage.

[Huppercase]

Yea, it is a blessing for mbappe to join Real Madrid. As you mentioned, Real Madrid is one of the best teams in the world right now, which is the truth. mbappe will also enjoy his stay in the team, and that will go along way in seeing his progress in his football career. but with time he will adopt with the team and be a great achievement for him because playing in Spain will not only improve his career but also have a positive impact on his lifestyle, although we all know that France is different from Spain, so with time we should expect a new mbappe, which I am sure we are going to see many incredible things and styles from him.

Real Madrid wanted to sign Klyan Mbappe since last season, the deal failed due to PSG been insecure about his move out of the team because they don't have any backup player to play his position that will.be as reliable as Mbappe, but the player insisted and he left the team at the end of last season, in fact he is the first player to sign for another club after the end of last season. I will say that the player is very happy to join his dream team, and Madrid as a team is also happy to have a world-class player that will add value to their team and the player will equally have his individual achievement in the team because it is easy to achieve greatness in big and recognized team.

Barcelona started this season vert well, they won all their Laliga games, they have good team work and the young players are playing very well to help the team regain it's balance. Real Madrid's start is not as good as expected, but that should not be a problem because I trust Madrid and they will come back very strong. If Barcelona failed to have consistency, they will soon drop some points and that will a good chance for Madrid to take over because they can be consistent when it comes to wining streak especially in the Bundesliga.

[Moreno233]

I also made mention of his performance during the last World Cup compared to the performance he had in had in Euro and in his club before leaving for Realmadrid . Though , I won't be too quick to judge  his performance that much but for me I think he's not currently on form compared to the Mbappe I used to know because I'm a very Big Fan of him.(Mbappe).
As for Lewandowski , I think he's doing a good job eventhough it's  not enough but comparing is age to that of Mbappe and he's having alot of goal though he lost  some chances at the very beginning of the season that was somehow obvious (I could remembered I complained about that in one of my comments:)) but I think he has improved in his recent games . However, I hope Mbappe (Adapt)   like others are saying

Every football lover have the back of their mind, their favorite players. Many stick to Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi but they're out of the current picture, we're now watching the replacement of these undisputed GOATs in European football, however the comparison is quite different and from sectional phases. Kylian Mbappe have always been in his prime, playing his best for Paris Saint-Germain and he's yet to fetch the deserves titles with the club. He moves to Real Madrid to win major titles and he will win because he deserve everything coming his path.

If you ask me the chances of Real Madrid winning the same things they won last season even with the presence of Mbappe in the club, I may not be able to give you a direct answer because the starting of Real Madrid did not show us that that energy is there again unless they will find their feet and start the process of the record keeping. There is no doubt that Mbappe is a great asset but we are yet to see this materialize in Real Madrid his present club. I would really want them to win at least a trophy this season to justify Mbappe's decision to join the club.

Well it's still early for casinos to start changing odds, even if they do the odd for Real Madrid will still be the lowest  and Barcelona odds might be reduced too but considering both teams are still on the top 2 positions of the table  though Barcelona haven't had any loss this season  and neither did Realmadrid had any  it was just 2 draws we can still come to conclusion of early games f*ck ups besides everyone keep saying Mbappe is adapting and Bellingham seem to be on injury so no doubt let's see what happen within the next 5 games, for now the odd still stands.
