La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

Espanyol took the lead at the Bernabeu. Jofre Carreras scored a wonderful goal in the 53rd minute of the match. However, the goal was due to a mistake by Madrid goalkeeper Courtois.

However, Madrid's players managed to dominate the match, but Madrid are currently trailing 1-0. Ancelotti considered likely opponents Espanyol to be a weak side. This is why he did not include Vini in his starting XI for this match. Madrid's attack was Rodrygo-Mbappe-Guler. However, Ancelotti dropped Vini after conceding the goal. Hopefully the Real Madrid team will be able to return to parity in the match very quickly.

Well they were able to turn it around and score a decent number of goals, but again Mbappe wasn't able to score during the game. He needed another penalty to add to his goal count. I thought he would be the perfect player and a potential successor for Ronaldo. Maybe not quite the same level, but with good chances to become the overwhelmingly superior goal scorer in La Liga. But he has a long-term contract, so there is still a lot possible for him. But so far he didn't really change Real Madrid's game.

Real Madrid dominates the games most of the time, but they need a deadly striker. In my opinion even Vinicius Junior needs too many chances to score goals.

There are seasons when teams have to pay debt to open up a room for the future. Barcelona doesn't do it for example, they just keep selling stuff again and again and even their future income, just so they could keep being strong. Sevilla basically decided to just focus on getting rid of the debt and the issues and that would be something that will be getting a good future for them.

This should not be all that hard to handle and it will definitely make it better for them and it would be working something like maybe in five years they would be much stronger on the long term. This should be something that will get a good thing for them if they do it right because it is not going to be easy at all for it to work but they can make it work for the long term without a doubt.

Maybe what Sevilla are facing right now is similar to what Barcelona have faced in the past although it is still not confirmed that it is finished, and debt repayment does need to be considered to get a further life for the team, some things that waste too much money should be limited to keep expenses and debts paid, players who have decent value in the market they must be forced to sell to pay debts and that is better than Sevilla going bankrupt.

Yes you are right that we have to think about the long term to stay alive and in that way it can be an option that does not bear too much risk, only that they may in terms of play will decline like Barcelona in the past, but this season they can be much better after doing that.

We don't usually see that kind of mistake from Courtois. Madrid were a bit unlucky so they conceded the first goal. However, after conceding the goal, Madrid's attack speed increased. Madrid are playing well after conceding this goal. And right now the Real Madrid team is leading by 3-1.

Carvajal scored the first goal for Madrid. Even after the match was equalized, Madrid did not slow down their attack. And two consecutive counters scored it ROdrygo and Vini. Madrid scored their second goal in the 75th minute and Vinicius gave Madrid a 3–1 lead in the 78th minute. The Real Madrid team will probably win the match with a margin of 3-1.

In the end, Real Madrid managed to turn things around, with the match ending 4-1. Mistakes made by Courtois were saved by goals from Dani Carvajal, Vinicius JR, Rodrygo and Kylian Mbappe. Espanyol failed to maintain their lead, and were only able to create one shot on target throughout the match. Real Madrid took control of the match and dominated the game, overall this was an easy win for the first time this season. Basically today match was not balanced, the strength possessed by Real Madrid was very different from Espanyol.

As far as we can see, Ancelotti tried his luck by rotating several players, the most prominent being Aurelien Tchouameni who was plotted as a center-back. Rodrygo was also rotated in a different position than usual, as was Valverde. In addition, Vinicius also started the game from the bench, and we saw Jude Bellingham today has returned to the starting XI. The experiments conducted by Ancelotti have proven to be quite effective, I think this was done to find the right scheme that can accommodate all the potential in his squad.

I agree, on occasion, a team has to take a step back to get their house (in this case, finances) in order to make sure of a more stable future. Sevilla opted for such restorations after the debts, while the effects are immediate, they could reap very rich fruits later. It is very painful, yes, but if well managed they will give out their comeback story with much stronger and more ready-to-compete versions for the future.

The game is now 4-1 in favor of Real Madrid with Mbappe scoring his fourth goal in the La Liga. Real Madrid keep their record of unbeaten run going after Espanyol scored the first goal that looked to trigger these Real Madrid players. Good three points for Real Madrid, and quite painful for Espanyol that kept the competition going until the 70th minute where Real Madrid started to find a way through. Real Madrid are improving and played more like a team than in their last games, this is the kind of performance that is expected of a team determined to remain La Liga champions.

No surprise that Espanyol went down 4-1 at the hands of Real Madrid. This just goes to show how much they dominated proceedings because, on top of their dominance, they had 70% possession which is quite a high figure. Having such kind of possession really enabled Real Madrid to pin the opposition down and also fashion chances that culminated in goals. It was a performance befitting a team hell-bent on retaining the La Liga crown.

[CryptoHeadlineNews]

H2H between the two teams is very good for Madrid. In their last 3 matches, they have always won against Espanyol, even with 3 or more goals.

And it seems that's exactly what just happened in today's game too, as the match just ended few minutes ago in favour of Real Madrid having scored 4 goals to 1 against Espanyol just as predicted above, because having Mbappe playing forward in today's game, it was already obvious a big win for Real Madrid, despite haven got yellow card, of which I'm not surprised seeing the game end with such goal margin as always from Carvajal, Rodrygo, Vinicius Junior and Mbappe.

Yes, but at first they were losing at all and could only take the lead towards the end of the match. To be honest I'm not surprised, I often see Madrid win the end, but they do it brilliantly. They realise their opponent's weakness and start to press there and almost always manage to score thanks to that. This match was no exception

[Amphenomenon]

Well they were able to turn it around and score a decent number of goals, but again Mbappe wasn't able to score during the game. He needed another penalty to add to his goal count. I thought he would be the perfect player and a potential successor for Ronaldo. Maybe not quite the same level, but with good chances to become the overwhelmingly superior goal scorer in La Liga. But he has a long-term contract, so there is still a lot possible for him. But so far he didn't really change Real Madrid's game.

Mbappe still has a long way to go on this team though hecwas able to get an assist but he still needs to score more goals outside from the penalty spot, though I'm happy at least he got in the scoresheet and had an assist most importantly since his goal was from the penalty spot.

Though I'm anticipating Endrick starting soon just like Ancelotti said earlier, this lad did well coming from the bench in their Champions league match during the week and now did won the penalty for Mbappe to score, I wonder how Mbappe feel about this guy after that controversy photo of him being disappointed when Endrick took that shot for his goal in the Champions League while having a chance of passing to either Vinicius or Mbappe who seems to be in a more better position to score.

Real Madrid dominates the games most of the time, but they need a deadly striker. In my opinion even Vinicius Junior needs too many chances to score goals.

Mbappe is still growing though can still do better but we saw the importance of Vinicius Junior on the team today again, though I think Real Madrid still has to do well in taking their chances well especially Mbappe though Endrick has been doing quite well in this aspect, that lad has been dangerous in any little moment he is on the pitch on every game now.

[Docnaster]

After a slow start to the season, Real Madrid I think are now back to their best thanks the club manager Carlo Ancelotti's experience. The reigning Spanish and European champions have now won their last four games in all competitions convincingly and looks like they're very much ready to defend the titles they won last season. The club's latest win came in their Spanish La Liga game against Espanyol tonight which have now taken them to second in the league table and just one point behind league leaders Barcelona who have a game at hand.
Do you think Real Madrid will be able to successfully defend the Spanish league title they won last season as well as the European Cup?

First of all I think Real Madrid needs to be very careful with their performance because they are still lacking the winning motivation as they used to have in the team, they had a very good game right from the beginning of the match but one thing to point out is their inability to convert their chances to scoring goals very fast as they are known for.

Real Madrid struggled in the half to register a goal despite making so many attempts but their goal keeper T. Courtois scored an on goal to put the visitors ahead in the first half but thanks to Carvajal, Rodrygo, Vinicius Junior and Mbappe who scored one goal each to secure 3 points for the Real Madrid team to continue their winning run against Espanyol.

[Sandra_hakeem]

They realise their opponent's weakness and start to press there and almost always manage to score thanks to that. This match was no exception

The own goal started off pretty much well with their competition and at a glance, I thought they could hold on but after 4 minutes in the game, an equalizer came through for Madrid, Carvajal.

I'm always interested in seeing the wingers flying and buying out time with the ball, thereby, putting the other team into exhaustion... Then another goal came from Rodrygo, another from Vini and that was a fascinating game already... The 3 points was secured and the GD( goal difference) was also recorded, until the penalty in the last minute... Mbappe sealed it finally.

Real Madrid struggled in the half to register a goal despite making so many attempts[...]

What are you talking about?? Do you really think their competitors were robots? I mean, they gotta be a struggle to keep the game and make players lagg... What do you think is the reason why they make passes more often before initiating a counter attack?

The first half between these two teams was played normally till half time with neither team able to score. Although the Real Madrid team attacked more in this match but were unable to score, the reverse team scored 1 goal in the second half after halftime. From then on the Real Madrid team panicked, as everyone who had placed a bet on Real Madrid and the Real Madrid fans in the gallery roared.

Because even though there is such a gap between these two teams, why can't Real Madrid score? Daniel Carvajal opened with the first goal for Real Madrid team. Rodrigo then scored the second goal, Vinicius Jr and Mbappe scored a penalty to make it four goals on the scoreboard. All gamblers who bet on Real Madrid team were successful and most people bet on Real Madrid in this match.

Just like expected, Madrid had an epic victory over espanyol whom I perceived to be just n average team or probably a little above average because they obviously aren't any more if you are to compare them side by side with Madrid, mbappes performance today was just within expectation and having a goal in today's game for me is a very good move by mbappe showing he's very much deserving of the forward play he did manned today, I believe if he continually stays at that position, with time, he's gradually going to do much more than we may expect he does, if not for the high number of goals Barcelona is carting away in almost all of their LA Liga games so far this season, I would have said maybe with mbappe, Madrid is going to have the highest number of gaol in the la Liga this season but I still believe mbappe can get the highest goal scorer if he puts his mind to it as there's still a whole lot of time to work towards it and hopefully he definitely going to get it right some day. This season, the expectations are really high on Madrid and hopefully they meet the expectations even amidst all of the injuries and unforeseen circumstances they get to face.

Real Madrid dominates the games most of the time, but they need a deadly striker. In my opinion even Vinicius Junior needs too many chances to score goals.

Real Madrid constantly creating goals, Mbappe for the second time in a row did not score in open play, while scoring only a penalty, even though his potential to replace Ronaldo for the Spanish club is evident, yet his contribution for the time being has been relatively insignificant to bring new changes to the team. Combined with Vinicius Junior who also requires many attempts to create goals, the need for Real Madrid to bring in a more accurate striker in the end is still apparent.

[ZAINmalik75]

So finally Real Madrid get the 3 points in impressive style. The own goal of T. Courtois makes Real Madrid players curious but soon the players turn on the scoring mode and score 4 goals. First goal put into the empty next by D. Carvajal. The second goal was made by Vince jr with a beautiful pass and finished by Rodrigo. The 3rd goal was scored by Vince jr by dribble moves which was very special. The last one and 4th goal were scored by the great Killyan Mbappe through a penalty shoot. The match was played in impressive style. Real Madrid have dominance the match in beautiful style. The status of the match was one sided in every aspect Real Madrid players are just doing well. However Real Madrid have brought up their form back and got the 3 points of this match in very easy way although Espanol is a good club they have good attacking tactics but Angelotti made them fail to win the match.

At the beginning of the season they had a lot of injured players and the Real Madrid coach had to manage the players well. But now that the players are healed, Real Madrid is strong and can benefit a lot from the fact that Barcelona have good injured players, this will make Barcelona lose points in the next 6 games. And Real Madrid will not lose in the next games, in my opinion it is clear that Real Madrid will become champions again this season. They have a good squad and will benefit from luck.


Valencia 2 - 0 Girona

I had bet on Girona to win, but I'm surprised they lost and didn't even manage to score at least 1 goal even though they were playing against an opponent who is fighting to get out of the relegation zone. I lost my bet. But I'm glad I always put a little money on each bet. Even with this lost bet, I'm still in profit because I was lucky to get other bets right.

[TelolettOm]

The first half between these two teams was played normally till half time with neither team able to score. Although the Real Madrid team attacked more in this match but were unable to score, the reverse team scored 1 goal in the second half after halftime. From then on the Real Madrid team panicked, as everyone who had placed a bet on Real Madrid and the Real Madrid fans in the gallery roared.

As usual, Real Madrid will start to heat up in the second half of the match. In previous seasons, they were even famous for goals in injury or extra time.

For this match, Vini JR really came back with 1 goal and his good performance with Bellingham. Vini with 9 and Bellingham 8. But on the other side, Carvajal started it very well, followed by a goal by Rodrygo, and ended with a goal from a Penalty kick by Mbappe.

Real Madrid has now discovered their lapses and has taken corrections of their early mistakes that is why they have been able to go Four games without a lose in all competition and from the look of things they are now very much ready for the league games and are ready to beat whichever opponents they will meet.

Do you think Real Madrid will be able to successfully defend the Spanish league title they won last season as well as the European Cup?

This season will really be a tough one because right now Barcelona is topping the league table and they don't also look like they will give up anytime soon so the energy is still there in them and for the fact that they have been facing clubs with less competitiveness has also made them to take this early advantage so it will really be hard for Real Madrid especially in the la liga but as for the champions league, I see no major tussle there which means they can still win the champions league back to back.

In this match I was sure that Real Madrid would win, because the list of players of Real Madrid team and the list of the opposite playing country are very different. Although they were having fun at the start of the match, Real Madrid came roaring back after an immediate goal.  And in no time they responded well, with the game all changing after the second half. Attack after attack this time, they terrorized the opposing Espanyol defenders and goalkeepers in no time, giving them no time and in this match Espanyol had 27 percent of the ball and the remaining 73% of the ball under Real Madrid's control. In terms of attack, the Real Madrid team had 31 attacks in the whole match and the opposite team had 10 attacks.

Real Madrid's match against Espanyol was really tense for me because I bet on Real Madrid's win but what made me tense was when Espanyol were the first to open the scoring through Courtois' own goal which stopped Carreras' cross but unfortunately Courtois accidentally deflected the ball which ended up being a goal for Espanyol.

but after Carvajal scored a goal for Real Madrid which made the score even at that time, finally I felt happy because it would definitely have the potential for another goal for Real Madrid and my guess was right, finally Real Madrid scored another goal which finally made Real Madrid win with a score of 4-1against Espanyol and finally I am happy because I succeeded in betting.

Now Real Madrid can get 3 points from Espanyol and of course now Real Madrid has managed to sit in 2nd place and has managed to get 14 points and of course it is now clear that Barcelona and Real Madrid are competing again for the title.  and of course we'll see later whether Real Madrid is able to shift Barcelona's position or not, what do you all think, whether Real Madrid will succeed in shifting Barcelona's position?

For this season's match, of course, Real Madrid is quite good because they were behind by one goal and replied with four goals, this shows how solid their mentality is, the confidence in the team is unquestionable with the very mature abilities of all the lines they have, as well as Mbappe who is very prominent and managed to score one goal, it seems they are in great progress from this squad.

Almost all teams played well before when they slaughtered Espanyol at home, and I think with this score they are catching up on points from Barcelona and of course Madrid doesn't want to make mistakes and they immediately amazed the audience with a winning score of 4-1 for them.
