La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25

[Chilwell]

Espanyol 2-1 Mallorca
Getafe 1-1 Osasuna
Las Palmas 0-1 Celta Vigo
Valladolid 1-2 R Vallecano
Real Madrid 2-0 Villarreal

This is yesterday result which am very impressed only when Real Madrid won the match against Villarreal to have more points gap from one point to four points which is still not enough because any mistakes now will result in losing the gap, but I don't expect that to happen now because they still have Barcelona ahead of them which the have the same points now but Barcelona are still in their 8th march and today they will make it up to 9th matches the same as Real Madrid and if the win the point gap move from zero to three points as before.

The result of other matches are expected but for Las Palmas and Celta Vigo really surprised me a lot because I am beginning to wonder whether Las Palmas are really ready for this season because it actually looks annoying, they hosted Celta Vigo and they played 9 against 11 almost throughout the second half and they couldn't even draw, even though I knew Celta Vigo are far better than them I see does red cards as avenue for them to set a record by winning their first game of the season but the misuse the opportunity.

It is starting to become clear what was predicted: that the only two contenders to win the league will be Madrid and Barcelona. A priori Barcelona have an easy game today against Alavés, and even if it is away from home they should have no problems. Only a draw would keep them ahead of Madrid, but in any case, as more matchdays go by I think the difference between these two teams and the rest will be more pronounced.

Kylian Mbappe doesn not need to hurry. He will impress and score goals with time. Staying healthy is his top priority. PSG win over Villarreal shows they are strong. Mbappe does well at PSG because he is their main player. But this might change if he joins Real Madrid. Not all players shine. Jude Bellingham took time to succeed. Mbappe success comes from PSG style which focuses on him. Real Madrid won but lost their captain Dani Carvajal. Mbappe must adjust to new teams to keep succeeding.

In fact, the expectations of coaches and fans from good players are a bit high, as is the case with Kylian Mbappe, Real's aim was to sign Mbappe to improve their attack. When Mbappe was at PSG club, he was the lifeblood of the team and excelled for the team every season. Mbappe left PSG to join Real Madrid in the recent season of transfer. But after joining this club I didn't feel like he was trying to adapt to a new environment, he was playing well from the start. As time passes he will meet everyone in the team and the understanding between them will be correct in the field game.

Real Madrid celebrated their fourth win in La Liga yesterday and are joint number one in the La Liga standings with arch-rivals Barcelona after taking full points from the match. Of course, Mbappé did not score a goal in this victory of Real Madrid, but his team still won which could be a great achievement for him.

Real Madrid victory over Villareal came at the expense of several players, especially Carvajal who will certainly be out for a long time, losing Carvajal is fatal and only adds to Madrid problems. Ancelotti has not finished fixing the front line now must think again to find a replacement for Carvajal. At first glance of today match the situation has not changed Mbappe and Vinicius are still difficult to build a partnership. However after Mbappe was withdrawn, Rodrygo was immediately able to liven up the attack which allowed Vinicius to score. However, the effectiveness of Madrid's attack could not work well due to the lack of ideal ball supply from the midfielders. Although Modric was there, it was not enough to sharpen the attack.

Barcelona need to win to open more gap between them and real Madrid. A draw is not bad but it will reduce the their lead gap between them and Madrid. And nobody knows when they will start having bad results. So now that they are still playing good football they should try as much as possible to continue to maintain that gap between them and Madrid. Madrid had started the league poorly and when they pick form they won't stop until the end of the season. So Barcelona shouldn't go and settle for a draw when the face Alavés. Alavés are not doing very well and it wont go well for Barcelona to drop a single point when they play against Alavés today. Same way that real Madrid have managed to win their match yesterday, Barcelona should also try and win their match as well.

Real Madrid defender Carvajal is the most hard working player for Real Madrid, currently he has this injury which is serious but with proper treatment he will be fine in few days. But Carvajal will also be a real threat to the Real Madrid team, as he keeps the goalkeeper the most secure from his site. And never allowed the opposing team to attack the ball in sight of the goal post by passing it to him, and as soon as it was attacked he jumped to attack and defend.
That's why I say the Real Madrid team will be most at risk without Carvajal in the next few games and he has played the biggest role in defense this season. Although in this game Real Madrid team managed to win but after a lot of hard work and at risk, because attacked but Villarreal team could not succeed.

We will only have a full medical test and assessment on Carvajal in next several days but it's not like he will recover after a few days. It's not a minor injury.

According to La Liga Injuries & Suspensions from Sportsgambler, this injury will take Carvajal about 2 months and he will be back in late of November.

He is very professional and already played many seasons for Real Madrid. He is important for them in defense, attacking support and he is even able to score important goals for Real Madrid. This is a smart, skillful and professional player and Real Madrid as well as Carlo Ancelotti will miss this player in next several weeks.

Carvajal has torn his ACL. It's a major injury, and it takes months to recover.

About Real Madrid, they are now facing serious issues in their defensive line. They lost lots of key players such as Courtois, Alaba, and now Carvajal. They have Vazquez, who can fill Carvajal's position. But, I'm doubting him to play at the same level as Carvajal did.

They obviously need to add more players to their squad. A very busy schedule, and intensive games are ruining their players.

Real Madrid victory over Villareal came at the expense of several players, especially Carvajal who will certainly be out for a long time, losing Carvajal is fatal and only adds to Madrid problems. Ancelotti has not finished fixing the front line now must think again to find a replacement for Carvajal. At first glance of today match the situation has not changed Mbappe and Vinicius are still difficult to build a partnership. However after Mbappe was withdrawn, Rodrygo was immediately able to liven up the attack which allowed Vinicius to score. However, the effectiveness of Madrid's attack could not work well due to the lack of ideal ball supply from the midfielders. Although Modric was there, it was not enough to sharpen the attack.

It seems that Real Madrid has lost not only Carvajal but also Vinicius, his injury may not be as serious as Carvajal's, but his absence is a loss for the team in any case. Valverde is becoming an important midfield player and it seems to me that Ancelotti was just starting to find his game when he faced new losses. The match with Villarreal was expectedly very difficult and despite the victory, they lost very important players.

By the way, I noticed that Ter Stegen also received a very serious injury in the match with Villarreal, so I can conclude that their players are quite rude and are not too worried about the fact that they can cause other players big trouble. Carvajal is too big a loss for Real Madrid's defense, I think that this player has long been irreplaceable for Ancelotti.

[HajiBagi]

Again, Ancelotti has to worry about a series of injuries to his players. And this is also a very unfortunate thing. Really, for some reason Real Madrid is really unlucky to get more players injured this time.

Source: Dani Carvajal could be set for a long spell out

Real Madrid returned to winning ways after successfully defeating their guests Villarreal through goals from Valverde and Vinicius. This victory came at a high price with Carvajal's injury, from a visual perspective it was certainly serious as he had to be stretchered off the pitch and is expected to be out until the end of the season as he will have to undergo surgery due to a torn knee ligament. After Rodri and Ter Stegen, now it's Carvajal turn to suffer the most disliked injury for players, namely the ACL.

Real Madrid won the match and got three points but they were not happy with the way the match ended because Real Madrid players got injured before the end of the game, Vinicius and Cavajal got an injury in the game but Vini Jr own will not that serious but Dani Carvajal owns is very serious, according to the news this morning that Dani Cavajal injury is ACL and we all know that ACL injury is an injury that can end a player career because some player's find it difficult to perform well after having an ACL injury and Dani Carvajal is 32 year's old man who is very important for Real Madrid and Spain, Dani Cavajal is the best defensive Right back since last season after having a good performance in the champion league and Euros game.

Real Madrid is in talks about ending his contract in the coming days and this happened, Real Madrid did not have any better defensive Right-back player than Cavajal, although Real Madrid has Lucas Vazquez If we take a look at every game that Real Madrid plays with Vazquez and Cavajal game we will know that Cavajal is better than Lucas Vazquez because Vazquez is not a player like to cross out ball like Carvajal and also not a permanent defensive player, Real Madrid need to act fast and get another player in the position, we are hearing news of Real Madrid signing Arnod from Liverpool and Arnod will likely want to join real Madrid because he has no plan to sign another contract with Liverpool again.

Snip

We will only have a full medical test and assessment on Carvajal in next several days but it's not like he will recover after a few days. It's not a minor injury.

According to La Liga Injuries & Suspensions from Sportsgambler, this injury will take Carvajal about 2 months and he will be back in late of November.

He is very professional and already played many seasons for Real Madrid. He is important for them in defense, attacking support and he is even able to score important goals for Real Madrid. This is a smart, skillful and professional player and Real Madrid as well as Carlo Ancelotti will miss this player in next several weeks.

Carvajal has torn his ACL. It's a major injury, and it takes months to recover.

About Real Madrid, they are now facing serious issues in their defensive line. They lost lots of key players such as Courtois, Alaba, and now Carvajal. They have Vazquez, who can fill Carvajal's position. But, I'm doubting him to play at the same level as Carvajal did.

They obviously need to add more players to their squad. A very busy schedule, and intensive games are ruining their players.

Madrid managed to win the match against Villareal with a convincing score, the defeat to Lille in the previous match made them motivated and when the match just started, they immediately attacked the Villareal defense, so the score of 2-0 for Madrid victory finally made them equal the points from Barcelona who have not played their 9th match today, the victory actually had to be paid dearly by Madrid over villareal after Dani Carvajal and Vinicius suffered injuries in the match, And with their current injuries make many of Madrid key players are injured at the same time, so obviously this will make their defence very vulnerable.
Lucas Vázquez could indeed be a temporary replacement, but as you said, his quality may not be on par with Carvajal, because I think he is a pretty solid defender and often helps Madrid attacking line so far, although maybe Madrid have a capable squad depth but the number of key players who are injured will of course gradually affect their performance this season.

[Velvet78]

Before anything else, I'm so sorry about Carvajal's injury.    He is really unlucky with that. I hope it doesn't take him more than a couple of months to recover fully. Because he is one of the crucial members of the lineup.

When it comes to the game, Real Madrid had a really decent win. Both of the goals were incredible. Valverde is absolutely one of the hard to replace players in the squad now.    He has a special talent with power shots too.

You know Vinicius Junior already. He did his job incredible. I just can't say Real Madrid were in full control but it was a thing that I expected though. Villarreal had more xG but football is not all about statistics that they couldn't score anyway.

[Ruttoshi]

This is yesterday result which am very impressed only when Real Madrid won the match against Villarreal to have more points gap from one point to four points which is still not enough because any mistakes now will result in losing the gap, but I don't expect that to happen now because they still have Barcelona ahead of them which the have the same points now but Barcelona are still in their 8th march and today they will make it up to 9th matches the same as Real Madrid and if the win the point gap move from zero to three points as before.

It is starting to become clear what was predicted: that the only two contenders to win the league will be Madrid and Barcelona. A priori Barcelona have an easy game today against Alavés, and even if it is away from home they should have no problems. Only a draw would keep them ahead of Madrid, but in any case, as more matchdays go by I think the difference between these two teams and the rest will be more pronounced.

You should have known that Real Madrid and Barcelona are always the favorite to win Laliga and they always rotate it from season to season. Barcelona and Real Madrid are on the same points but Barcelona will play their outstanding match today and that is what we will use to know if Barcelona continues to top the table or they will go down to second place.

The chance of Barcelona maintaining the first position is high because their host Alaves is a weak club and I don't expect a draw in this match. As the league gets matured, that is when the strongest amongst these two clubs will prevail.

[karabiber]

Alaves - Barcelona and Real Sociedad - Atletico Madrid are other games that can be lovely to watch by the way.



My picks will probably be just like this.

Barcelona got a shocker like a 4-2 loss against Osasuna last week. But later on they improved significant morale by demolishing Young Boys. I don't think Alaves can hold them off. Barcelona's streak is broken but they can continue from where they left anyway.

Atletico Madrid is a a little bit harder choice though. I just wanted to believe they can win one way or another while Real Sociedad are having the nightmare this season. I don't think Real Sociedad will win at all but I'm just a little worried about the possibility of a draw. 

Alaves have lost three times in their last four league games, but all of them on the road. Compared to the beginning of the season they have problems in defense. One of the reasons for this is that important players like Abqar, Novoa and Sedlar have not been able to maintain consistency and keep fit. However, Alaves are still a team that plays well in transition and this can be a danger for Barcelona. Barcelona are again missing a lot of players. They also have a tight fixture schedule. Therefore, Hansi Flick's chances of rotation and moves look slim. However, with De Jong back in the team, they could be more energized against Alaves. I think Barcelona will learn from their mistakes after the Osasuna game and play with fewer mistakes in this match. Barcelona will not allow any surprises and will win this match.

This is more pronounced as there are many games to play before the end of the season, and I am quite sure that Barcelona and Real Madrid would win, draw, and lose some of their matches in the race for the Laliga League top contestants. However, who knows the end result of the club that lifts the Laliga title? It can be Real Madrid or Barcelona to be the 2024/20225 Laliga League title holder of the season.

[knowngunman]

The result of other matches are expected but for Las Palmas and Celta Vigo really surprised me a lot because I am beginning to wonder whether Las Palmas are really ready for this season because it actually looks annoying, they hosted Celta Vigo and they played 9 against 11 almost throughout the second half and they couldn't even draw, even though I knew Celta Vigo are far better than them I see does red cards as avenue for them to set a record by winning their first game of the season but the misuse the opportunity.

You really expect some goal from Las Palmas that is currently sitting on the buttom of the table with three points after playing eight games? It's obvious, they are not first division team and they will go back to where they belong come the end of the season. I'm sure any second division playing against nine men would have scored three goals considering they're playing at their own home ground. If a team can not win a game or at least secure a draw when opponents is down with two men before sixty minutes, such a team is not capable of being in any competitive league. Perhaps, the refree should send out half of the team for them in their next match since that's what they want before they can score a goal.

[Jossque]

Espanyol managed to defeat Mallorca 2-1 at home. 2-0 up in the 47th minute, the hosts had almost no chance of losing the game.
Getafe, on the other hand, drew 1-1 with Osasuna at home.Getafe's matches are usually goalless.By goalless, I mean that they have been between 2-3 goals until now.Yesterday, Getafe, who took the lead against Osasuna with the goal of our national star Bertug Yıldırım, could not prevent the draw goal.

[MusaMohamed]

However, with De Jong back in the team, they could be more energized against Alaves. I think Barcelona will learn from their mistakes after the Osasuna game and play with fewer mistakes in this match. Barcelona will not allow any surprises and will win this match.

De Jong is a kind of midfielder with passion on ball possession but does not have instinct of moving the ball forward directly and speedy. With him, Barcelona can control ball better in the midfield but match intensity will be slower and it will give opponents more time to restructure their defense system. I watched many boring matches like this with De Jong in midfields of Barcelona and Netherlands teams.

The chance of Barcelona maintaining the first position is high because their host Alaves is a weak club and I don't expect a draw in this match. As the league gets matured, that is when the strongest amongst these two clubs will prevail.

Barcelona have good form and they will bet all cost to win La Liga in this season so losing points to a weak team like Alaves is not in their plan. Football is unpredictable and Alaves have small chances to make a surprise and get points from Barcelona. Generally I believe that Barcelona can finish this match with three points for adding to their pocket and maintaining the first position after this week.

Alaves vs Barcelona.

In this match, Flick will certainly target his team to get full points over the home team, because currently Madrid is equal to Barcelona's points. After playing a bad match in week 8, this week Barca will focus on getting points at the Alaves team's headquarters. In the home team's camp, Alaves must definitely work hard to be able to match Barcelona's game. Although it is difficult to defeat Barca, at least a draw is the focus of the home team. But if we refer to the H2H meeting between the two teams, Barcelona always dominates the victory over Alaves. Moreover, Barcelona is the team that is favored compared to the home team. It seems that this match will produce many goals either from Barcelona or the home team who might be able to break through Inaki Pena's goal. Barca has odds @1.66, for me it is not ideal for single bets. The handicap option can be an alternative with -1 @2.03 Barcelona. If Barca is only able to score one goal, then the bet gets nothing. So, Barca must score at least 2 goals in this match.

[Luzin]

Real Madrid won the match and got three points but they were not happy with the way the match ended because Real Madrid players got injured before the end of the game, Vinicius and Cavajal got an injury in the game but Vini Jr own will not that serious but Dani Carvajal owns is very serious,

It's terrible, it's so sick. I see him quite sad, he has to be out for a long time and Madrid has more and more injured players. I have felt that, and this traumatized me. But I believe that currently the handling of this injury will be better and more professional. I pray that he recovers quickly.
This problem is certainly a bad condition for Ancelotti, maybe he should take players from Madrid Castila until the transfer season comes and he can buy some new players. We know that currently there are several Madrid players who are injured.

[Polkeins]

Kylian Mbappe doesn not need to hurry. He will impress and score goals with time. Staying healthy is his top priority. PSG win over Villarreal shows they are strong. Mbappe does well at PSG because he is their main player. But this might change if he joins Real Madrid. Not all players shine. Jude Bellingham took time to succeed. Mbappe success comes from PSG style which focuses on him. Real Madrid won but lost their captain Dani Carvajal. Mbappe must adjust to new teams to keep succeeding.

In fact, the expectations of coaches and fans from good players are a bit high, as is the case with Kylian Mbappe, Real's aim was to sign Mbappe to improve their attack. When Mbappe was at PSG club, he was the lifeblood of the team and excelled for the team every season. Mbappe left PSG to join Real Madrid in the recent season of transfer. But after joining this club I didn't feel like he was trying to adapt to a new environment, he was playing well from the start. As time passes he will meet everyone in the team and the understanding between them will be correct in the field game.

Real Madrid celebrated their fourth win in La Liga yesterday and are joint number one in the La Liga standings with arch-rivals Barcelona after taking full points from the match. Of course, Mbappé did not score a goal in this victory of Real Madrid, but his team still won which could be a great achievement for him.

Real Madrid victory over Villareal came at the expense of several players, especially Carvajal who will certainly be out for a long time, losing Carvajal is fatal and only adds to Madrid problems. Ancelotti has not finished fixing the front line now must think again to find a replacement for Carvajal. At first glance of today match the situation has not changed Mbappe and Vinicius are still difficult to build a partnership. However after Mbappe was withdrawn, Rodrygo was immediately able to liven up the attack which allowed Vinicius to score. However, the effectiveness of Madrid's attack could not work well due to the lack of ideal ball supply from the midfielders. Although Modric was there, it was not enough to sharpen the attack.

Carvajal is out for 8-10 months and that's the minimum, but it's already clear that the season is over for him. Very frustrating injury, but Real have already extended Carvajal's contract until 2026 as a support, so now Dani can calmly heal and recover.
Mbappe is an egoist and it was known before the transition to Real, so initially it was unclear why to buy him, because Mbappe is used to that he is a superstar and the game of PSG depended on him, but Real plays as a team and even players like Vinicius and Bellingham play first of all for the team and the overall result, not for idvidual achievements. I think if Mbappe doesn't change his attitude, I wouldn't be surprised if Real try to sell him in a year or two.

[SatoPrincess]

Real Madrid lost their last match in the Champions League to Lille. That does not mean they will draw or lose this match. Real Madrid has not lost form to the level where they should be judged in that way. In football, no team is perfect; any team can make mistakes that can lead to a loss or draw. Losing to a weaker team is part of football, and that is why some people say that football is also a matter of luck. If a team is not lucky in certain matches, they may not win, and it will be hard for them to achieve victory.

So, in today's match between Real Madrid and Villarreal, I can't say for sure which team will win. Even looking at their recent head-to-head matches, both teams have good records against each other. But based on current form, if we compare the two teams, Real Madrid should be the favorite to win. However, let's see what happens at the end of the match.

Obviously the loss to Lille in the Champions League didn’t mean the end of Real Madrid’s winnings. The loss came as a huge blow to the team but they have showed good attitude by putting all that behind and staying focused on the next game ahead and executed a good performance by getting a win against Villarreal and getting a clean sheet which is important response for a team that lost their last game.

[Unsoldier]

Alaves vs Barcelona.

In this match, Flick will certainly target his team to get full points over the home team, because currently Madrid is equal to Barcelona's points. After playing a bad match in week 8, this week Barca will focus on getting points at the Alaves team's headquarters. In the home team's camp, Alaves must definitely work hard to be able to match Barcelona's game. Although it is difficult to defeat Barca, at least a draw is the focus of the home team.

Barca has odds @1.66, for me it is not ideal for single bets. The handicap option can be an alternative with -1 @2.03 Barcelona. If Barca is only able to score one goal, then the bet gets nothing. So, Barca must score at least 2 goals in this match.

I think the match between Alaves and Barcelona will be very interesting. Barcelona is, of course, the clear favorite, as they are in most La Liga games, especially given their current form.

Alaves sits 11th in the table with three wins, one draw, and four losses. They’ve scored 11 goals and conceded 12 — a typical mid-table side. Even if they win, the highest they could climb is 8th place, though that seems unlikely.
Barcelona is currently leading the league, level on points with Real Madrid but with a game in hand. A win here would make them the outright leaders. Historically, Barcelona dominates this matchup, with four wins and one draw in their last five meetings with Alaves.

My prediction: Barcelona will win comfortably and score multiple goals.
