La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[len01]

After yesterday we saw Madrid win, will we also see the win from Barcelona today?
TBH, I have a little doubt because the bookie giving Odds @1.94 is slightly bigger than usual. So I have an assumption if the match just ended in a draw.
What do you think ?

As a Real Madrid fan, I certainly hope that Barcelona will lose points and in fact there are prerequisites for this - the odds are too generous for a game between an absolute leader and an underdog. Apparently, as always, bookmakers "know something". Given the huge number of surprises this weekend, I would definitely not bet on Barcelona and overall things are going too well for them so far, so expect a return to normality and a drop in points in a few games.

Your prediction is right bro,
At first I also wondered a little why the bookmakers gave odds that were too big for Barcelona (if Barcelona did have a big chance of winning). Well, usually if the top teams can win a certain match, usually the bookmakers give smaller odds like @1.3 or @1.2.
I admit this was a mistake in my prediction that was too ambitious in expecting fairly high odds.

I'm very surprised at the result of Barcelona game today, I at some point couldn't accept the result almost immediately because I almost couldn't believe it because I have seen this same team won against tough and bigger team that they got landslide victory and now they are playing against a small team that they should have won very clearly but they couldn't, well this is football and almost anything can always happen. This should be one of their few losses they have suffered this season.

Real Sociedad is not a club that can be underestimated in my opinion their performance is almost on par with Athletic Bilbao. Their performance is mediocre but also can't be said to be good, I initially thought the match would end in a draw because Barcelona still had plenty of time to hold Real Sociedad to a draw in the second half but it turned out that Barcelona suffered a narrow defeat, they also didn't do as many shots as they usually do, football is indeed full of surprises I am also not surprised if behind this there is something strange like cheating by bookies in arranging the game.

Yes, many people will be shocked to see the result of Barcelona and Real Sociedad in this match, Barcelona lost despite being a strong team. It is really unbelievable but of course the result we saw and it was a surprise immediately. Barcelona lost the match for the second time this season which forced them to lose points, of course it was an incredible victory for Real Sociedad. However, we cannot consider any team as small rather many teams can perform such strong performances that can even beat the strong teams. Similarly, Real Sociedad achieved a great victory against Barcelona, they had a great performance due to which they were able to collect points. Moreover, most of the gamblers lost in this match because most of the people bet on Barcelona.

It was really surprising to see this kind of result considering the quality of Barcelona. Real Sociedad didn't show any respect for the league leaders because they came out to play. The home team had fourteen shots and six were on target even when they got only 30% ball possession. Barca have just gotten their second defeat in the La Liga which means they might have just three points advantage since Real Madrid has an outstanding game.

Barca really missed the absence of Lamine Yamal because they looked less dangerous. But I think VAR's verdict of Robert Lewandowski's goals was wrong. From my own view, he was not offside, this might be another blunder by these match officials.   

[mammusu]

[Toni Juanmarti] The referee of Barca Sociedad game already knows that he was wrong in the goal disallowed for Lewandowski. When he left the locker room he repeated to Flick several times "What can I do?" referring to the fact that if the VAR tells him that he is offside, he cannot do anything.

Barcelona could at least secured one point from Sociedad, yet, they got ruined by the referee. The referee in this game is absolute trash. It should not be offside. Lewandowski was clearly onside. But, VAR ruled it offside and disallowed his goal.

It's weird to see how Lewandowski's disallowed goal really influenced Barcelona's gameplay. They were getting lost on the field after VAR ruled Lewandoski's goal.

VAR is shite and i don't like it. It's too often making errors

What happened in yesterday match was indeed very disappointing, but I think with barcelona defeat in the match should has again presented a fierce competition in La Liga later with the smaller point difference with Madrid at the moment  , the referee's decision to disallow Lewandowski's goal was a big mistake but I think the mistake should have been delegated to the referee VAR,remembered the referee on the field only listened to the decision that taken by Var referee those in front of the monitor if it is related to offside because needs to be seen from every side, so I think the referee who leads the match is not entirely blameworthy over decision, the use of VAR is actually a help tool for referees to make decisions in order to create a fair match, but currently we can see that the use of VAR often causes a lot of controversial decisions and as if it is more advantageous for a team in a match, so that the use of VAR is starting to be debated in many European competitions today, as if it is more advantageous for a team in a match, so that the use of VAR is starting to be debated in many European competitions today.

Real Sociedad may not look better than Barcelona, ​​but that doesn't guarantee that they can't win when facing Barcelona and we can see it in this match. Previously we might have agreed that Barcelona was more favored, but that doesn't mean Real Sociedad didn't have a chance to win.

The solid defense built by Real Sociedad was the key to their success in this match, in statistics we can see that they didn't let Barcelona create very dangerous opportunities, even though Barcelona dominated the match. Instead they could be more effective in attacking and they could create 1 goal to secure victory.

Nobody expected that result, but it should be noted that this is the second game without Yamal in the lineup and the second defeat of Barcelona, apparently the dependence on Yamal is very serious, if without him Barcelona can not score and moreover, Barcelona has not been able to score a single shot on goal Real Sociedad, which is strange for the leader of La Liga.

There was also a controversial decision of VAR when they canceled the clean goal of Lewandowski, because the picture shows that the foot of the Real Sociedad defender was offside, so the referee's mistake seems to have helped Real Sociedad to win.

[Hirose UK]

In the two match Real Madrid vs Osasuna and also Mallorca vs Atletico Madrid, those are the matches I choose for this week even though there are some other interesting matches but I only have feeling for these two match.
Real Madrid is the favorite and managed to win with big score of 4 - 0 then in the Mallorca vs Atletico Madrid match I took Over 1.5 because in the last three match Atletico Madrid always managed to win by creating 2 goal even in the UCL match against PSG they also won 1 - 2 but unfortunately against Mallorca they only showed victory with score of 0 - 1.

VAR is shite and i don't like it. It's too often making errors

I don't know what's wrong with the var officials these days, the reason why the var was there in the first place was to assist the referee in some tight situations, but it seems that the var officials are making more mistakes than the infield referees. There was no way Lewandowski was offside, as clearly shown in the picture, but I don't know how on earth they said that was offside. This decision was totally against Barcelona and for sure it was going to affect their play. In a match that was as tight as that particular one, when Real Sociedad players weren't giving much space in their defense and you managed to score a goal and it was wrongfully ruled out. The league management should improve their performance, so that things like this won't be happening in the future. Barcelona might be the victim today, but who knows which team will be next victim.

Barcelona Odds yesterday was too big so I began to wonder if the bookmakers did not realize that Barcelona has won even bigger clubs to have given them that big odd against ordinary Real Sociedad but I never knew that those bookmaker knows what they were doing, however from what I saw on that odd I believe that if somebody should follow up the way those bookmakers go about their odds somebody can win big one day because yesterday game was not the first time we are seeing this, so does it mean that those bookmakers knows exactly how those matches will play? Because if the choice of odds were to be decided by everybody between Barcelona and Real Sociedad they would have give Barcelona just a very small odd.

As a Real Fan, i'm feeling good and bad at the same time seeing Barcelona lose the game. The good thing is they lost three points, Real Madrid is getting closer to them. The bad thing is that VAR is proving how inaccurate it is, robbed so many teams.

I know that, despite being robbed by VAR, Barcelona was not performing well. They might only secure one point. But, this raises a big question about VAR's accuracy. It's often doing blatant errors, and what the hell is wrong with VAR employment? They looked so blind and very amateur.

Sociedad can be unyielding at home, yesterday's match was not easy for Barcelona, ​​I agree with VAR, there are complaints about the referee's decision, but as long as I follow La Liga, I see that Real Madrid has almost always been treated with great attention here. Unfortunately, Barcelona is losing points and after this round, Real is reducing the gap, now having a game in hand, in case of a win they can get closer to Barcelona to a distance of three points, which is very close.

Barcelona fought really well but I think they underrate Real sociedad and they pay for it. Real sociedad is a sturbon team and they took the advantage. It is higher time to stop underrating small teams and also too early to get comfortable with previous victories. Moreover, the over dependence on Yamal is obvious and the consequences is already manifesting. Barcelona need to have a back up for him, his absence shouldn't destabilize the whole team at this his young age. They don't seem to possess threat at all without him. They've lost the two games he didn't start this season and Raphinha is just a ghost without him too.

Many of us are surprised by this result which we know on paper Barcelona is far superior to its opponent especially in this season they are very consistent many strong teams have become victims but when playing against Real Sociedad Barcelona seemed helpless I do not understand what the reason behind the defeat but maybe as you said Yamal's absence the attack built by Barcelona was not so effective as proven from 11 shots none of them hit the target, the only best chance was a goal that was disallowed by the referee. And not only you I also question the controversial decision.

I who am not a Barcelona fan, also see this very upset, but VAR is set with an automatic system so that even one inch will be an offside result. Not only in the offside session, we also often see the position of the ball on the thin goal line. The point is whatever happens when everyone has agreed to use VAR, then you must be ready for all possibilities that are beyond the reach of the eye. Let's just say Barcelona contributed 3 points to Sociedad in that match.

Barcelona loss to a smaller team like Real sociedad proved that they failed to take the previous matches as seriously as they did and the poor performance of the attacking players led to the loss which disappointed the crowd and many gamblers. Yes barca fought well but failed to score do you blame it on luck or own mistakes? Coach Hansi Flick blamed the match referee and said that Barca lost the match as a result of his wrong decision. However the loss to Barcelona brought some relief to Real Madrid as they were 9 points behind and the loss to Real Sociedad reduced that gap to 6 points.

I doubt it is possible for bookies to have any connection on how to manipulate a big league match like this. Bookies don't have such power, and when we see a small club defeats a big club, we should appreciate their effort and praise them, instead of looking for unrealistic excuses that is not the reason. The two clubs that defeated Barcelona this season are small clubs and it was unexpected by everyone and no one saw it coming. This is why football is full of surprises and you cannot predict the future rightly. It is from this mindset that gambling came into the picture in life. Real Sociedad was able to seal up their defense and didn't give Barcelona the chance to penetrate or do those their counter attack after they scored the only goal in the match.

[Majestic-milf]

I really saw that the Barcelona players were tired in this match and their performance did not improve throughout the match. Barcelona may be on the receiving end of their second La Liga defeat of the season after losing to Osasuna earlier, this was not the performance I expected from them, of course.

Pedri, Raphinha, Lewandowski and all the players looked so sluggish and failed to build a good attack. They kept failing in defense and all the players were very frustrated about that, but this was something I never expected at all. Real Sociedad surprisingly played so bravely with a defensive and counter-attacking scheme, it was quite troublesome for Barcelona. But let's see what will happen in a few minutes.

When you have silenced the destroyers in any team, they become dull and uninterested in making much efforts. To me, their will to fight was lost when that goal by Lewandowski was ruled out and they couldn't get any more.
 They were literally begging for set pieces and all their chances were skillfully saved by either the keeper or the defense.
Hans Flick experienced his second defeat but that didn't affect their place at the top because they have 33 points, 6 points above Real Madrid so I think they can still continue their reign if they can pick up and continue in their winning streak.
Yesterday's game was really interesting; both sides giving and taking from each other but it was equally good that Real Sociedad were able to take three points from Barcelona at home since it's being a while they recorded such a win and to do that against a side who have been on fire is such a morale booster.

[Jossque]

Barcelona, which was doing well, got stuck in Sociedad away from home.Barcelona deserved the defeat after failing to shoot accurately against Sociedad.Sociedad defeated its rival with a goal in the first half, while Barcelona suffered its 2nd defeat in the league and thus gave the opportunity to get closer to its rival.Real Madrid will be 3 points behind if it wins the minus match.
Athletic Bilbao, on the other hand, managed to get 1 point with a goal in the last minutes against its weak opponent.Athletic Bilbao, which dominated the match, had difficulty in winning the match.Bilbao, which was 1-0 down with a goal in the last 10 minutes of the second half, managed to get a point with Guruzeta's last minute goal.

[Weawant]

In the two match Real Madrid vs Osasuna and also Mallorca vs Atletico Madrid, those are the matches I choose for this week even though there are some other interesting matches but I only have feeling for these two match.
Real Madrid is the favorite and managed to win with big score of 4 - 0 then in the Mallorca vs Atletico Madrid match I took Over 1.5 because in the last three match Atletico Madrid always managed to win by creating 2 goal even in the UCL match against PSG they also won 1 - 2 but unfortunately against Mallorca they only showed victory with score of 0 - 1.

Winning at this point was very crucial to Madrid actually as they were beginning to looking like they were already gradually moving into that weak phase of their strength this season so it became very important that they won this game and actually get to probably kick off their winning journey again and regain their position on the table, your picks weren't bad after all, usually Atletico and Mallorca were supposed to produce more than 1.5 goals but you were unlucky this day, best of luck on your next trial.
