La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[bering]

This penalty miss made many people disappointed because it requires losing this match... This penalty technique that keeps repeating like there is no creativity at all but that's Mbappe at Real Madrid nothing.

Remember that Mbappe came to Real Madrid for free unlike Hazard who was bought at a premium. Lol
Mbappe will be defended by whoever the coach clearly likes even though it's bad it indicates he still believes Mbappe can return to his best performance.

It was a shame that the penalty failed to be converted into a goal. I think if the penalty becomes a goal, perhaps the outcome would be a different story. Maybe it would be a good idea if Ancelotti tried to bench Mbappe for a while because sometimes some players become motivated when they are on the bench. Ancelotti needs to consider signing an experienced striker as well so that it will improve the options in their front line (such as placing Mbappe in another position). I think Victor Osimhen could be a great option.

Mbappe being dropped is impossible because Vini is still out injured so he fills the position, maybe Ancelotti still doesn't believe in other players so Mbappe still starts and we know he is already a superstar only at Real Madrid his performance has deteriorated.

Now if you bring in players still don't know... news that will be recruited during this winter and still not seen if Victor Oshimen is on Ancelotti's radar.
I think Real Madrid will keep their existing players, Mbappe will probably be a starter.

I think that's the problem because Mbappe has through an hard season in Real Madrid he even still struggling and unable to in form but unfortunately Ancelotti still pushing Mbappe to playing for each matches which this is one of the mistake which made by Ancelotti and actually some of young players can fill the position of an attacker such as Arda Guller or Endrick but unfortunately Ancelotti didn't trust these players to playing regularly and in my opinion i think it's time to putting Mbappe to the bench and give other players to gets more minutes to play and maybe if Ancelotti can do that then Real Madrid will be able to playing more consistent

Mbappe was indeed brought in to help Real Madrid's performance, especially the front line, but what is happening now is far from expectations, Mbappe can't do much but instead he is always the reason Real Madrid fails to win the match.
Since Vinicius' injury, the Real Madrid team has no other hope except Mbappe in the front line and Ancelotti has maximized Mbappe's position but he can't show his best performance.

The initial goal was indeed like that, he was brought in to complement the sharpness of the front line after Benzema was gone. However his role has actually taken Vinicius position. From the start Madrid actually made a mistake in recruiting Mbappe, because Madrid needed a striker who could fill the midfield. Now it is proven that instability occurs due to the fight for the left position that Vinicius has occupied for a long time. Are the results better? of course not
So for now I prefer Madrid formation without Mbappe.

Now everything will be even more difficult for Mbappe after he is now being jeered by many Real Madrid fans and if this season Mbappe can't rise then his career at Real Madrid will be threatened.

Since he was at PSG, he was the best player at the club, but since coming to Real Madrid his confidence has faded, he seems like a player who is still learning to play football. His penalty misses against Liverpool and Athletic Club were a rare occurrence, he missed two penalties in the space of a week. Mbappe has also failed to convert 13 big chances in La Liga this season, no other player has failed more than 10 attempts, his mentality is really down because since he was brought in he has not been able to meet the club's expectations, especially since he is also experiencing personal problems that have an impact on him psychologically such as not being called up to his country's national team and the conflict between him and PSG.

Currently, Mbappe is the one on that position since  Vini is on injury but still he is incapable of playing the role properly. I wouldn't blame Real Madrid for recruiting him because everybody was happy that Mbappe will be the best player to replace Benzema that period that he was on fire, but it's obvious that he can't.

I will say that Bellingham did better when he came to Madrid last season because it was their joint force with Vini and other players that gave them those two cups. Currently, that Vini is not around Bellingham has been helpful in scoring goals. This is the best time for Mbappe to make his name but he is not using his opportunities wisely.

[Judith87403]

What type of player is Mbappe, who makes fans happy in one match only to disappoint them in the next? Mbappe looks to be a player who has never played for a top team, consider the chances that a player we've hyped as one of the greatest players. One thing I understand is that if a player has not adapted to a new club, they must calm down and take it slowly during their debut, but Mbappe is just hungry to score goals and compete with other players who have been in the league for many years.

Ancelotti does not have to put him among the players who will take penalties, in fact, I prefer Bellingham over anybody else, if Vinicuis is unavailable, Bellingham should take the penalty rather than Mbappe. Mbappe has disappointed us several times, like he did against Liverpool in the Champions League, if Mbappe had scored the two penalties when Real Madrid was already behind, they may have fought to win the games. Honestly, I'm starting to regret Real Madrid's decision to sign Mbappe.

Mbappe is one of the main forwards, it is not surprising that he is trusted to take penalties, but it is bad that he has used bad tactics in recent games for this, I had the impression that he was trying to guess, instead he should have taken this penalty with the force of the shot, so that the goalkeeper had no chance to save this ball. Mbappe should definitely be blamed for this defeat, because this penalty and the next one could have been the turning point in the match, but it did not happen and Bilbao won.

Mbappe is not the only player that has missed a crucial penalty even the best players do Ronaldo and Messi. When a game doesn't want to go in your favour there's nothing you can do about it, even if you used all the best player in the pitch, and I think that was the situation with Real Madrid in that encounter with Bilbao last night that they lost the game. Any player can miss penalty and I doubt if Mbappe wouldn't have wanted to score the penalty for their team to win.

We all know he is not the only player that has missed a crucial penalty but this is not the first time he is missing penalty and it is becoming alarming which is not good and if he continues he is going to have a bad name or maybe bad record. just like i said Mbappe is an excellent and amazing player. Doing this, is not good at all and i think he is been under pressure this days but on the other hand why will he be on pressure when this is not the first time he is playing with a big team as a matter of fact some of his team mate there are from same country with him so what is the problem. his appearance in Real Madrid is not commendable perhaps he should work on himself it does not take Bellingham this long to...

[Docnaster]

Brazilian striker Endrick since the start of the season have not been able to get as much playing minutes as most of us thought he'll be getting after his impressive performances with his former club last season and that have raised a lot of concerns about the future of the Brazilian at the Spanish club. Earlier this morning, it was reported that the club has issued a statement in response to those concerns. In the statement, the club said he's just getting to know more about the club and that there's no plan to loan him out as he's in the future plans of the club.
What do you make of this report?

It could happen but not this season, maybe this season is a bad season for Mbappe with his game that may not be so good, of course there must be an evaluation for him to restore his mentality as before otherwise this will continue to worsen his career, there is nothing wrong with buying Mbappe but it does take time for Mbappe to find his performance, it's not that Mbappe can't be a replacement for Benzema in my opinion it's too heavy if he is compared with other Real Madrid players, everything takes a process and time for everything to be done by Mbappe to understand Real Madrid's game.

[Bitcoin_people]

This season, Real Madrid is facing many challenges, especially due to the injuries of their young players. Barcelona's performance was very good from the beginning, but their game deteriorated a lot, but later they were able to improve their game. But Real Madrid is not able to change their game, especially Mbappe's performance is not good at all at the moment. Although Mbappe tries hard, he is not able to make his efforts successful, but rather he is failing, which is really bad for the team. Moreover, we saw that Real Madrid lost their last match with Atletico Club, where they lost three more points and fell 4 points behind Barcelona. However, since there is not a big gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona at the moment, since there are still many matches left, if the team can change their game, they will definitely be able to return to the competition. I think Real Madrid could compete with Barcelona for the title if they can properly invest their players from the next round.

Ancelotti must be able to immediately identify the problems they are currently facing, although they have many star players in their current squad but the reality is that they are actually very slumped compared to last season, the presence of Mbappe who is expected to further sharpen their offensive line but is now a new problem that continues to be in the spotlight, Mbappe performance has not been maximized after almost half a season of joining may indicate that he is indeed unable to compete in the la liga which more competitive, I agree with what you said, maybe it's time for Ancelotti now to use formidable formation without Mbappe like last seasons.

I think mbappe is that kind of player thats good when he is at a particular league side, he is making me to believe that Spanish laliga style of football doesn't fit him, he is struggling to fit into their style, I don't know if I will say he hasn't adapted to Real Madrid pattern of play may be due to the reason that this is his first season there, I don't even know what to attribute this kind lapses to, though we keep watching to see if he will change but it's becoming very serious, though I don't blame him very much for faling to score a penalty for consecutively 2 times like I said earlier in some post of mine, scoring penalty is a luck but more is expected from mbappe as a star and his not giving Realmadrid what they want from him presently, mbappe has failed in different angles, i think Realmadrid might be having a rethink soon if this kind of underperformance of his persist, having problems with PSG and not being invited by his nation as you said shouldn't make him lack concentration in a team that he has always wanted to play in, his country side invitation problem can be fixed but that of his former club i wouldnt know but I think is time for him to concentrate on his career because as it stands his carreer may be threatened if he continue this way.

Athletic Club vs Real Madrid team Yesterday match Athletic Club team scored 2 goals and Real Madrid team scored 1 goal. I could not accept the poor performance of Real Madrid team players because I was a Real Madrid team supporter in this match. Real Madrid team could not perform well in the first stage of the game. J. Bellingham scored 1 goal in the 78th minute. Athletic Club team player Álex Berenguer scored the 1st goal in the 53rd minute and G. Guruzeta scored the 2nd goal in the 80th minute to win the match.

He is way too good to not be able to adjust to a new league.  This talk has been going on here for a while and it can never be an apology for a player like Mbappe that he has to get accustomed to the new league first. Maybe it takes a few games, but he is playing for Real Madrid and there are 2 teams you would want to play for in La Liga right now and that is Real Madrid and Barcelona. If he can't play his best game while playing for Real Madrid, what can you do about it then. It is about him and about the effort he is putting into playing his best. But there are many uncertainties within him apparently as it is not normal for him to miss penalties like that and usually he is a player who can resist pressure and stress.

With Vini's absence, it seems very risky if Mbappe sits on the bench. unless, if Vini has recovered and returned to the main squad. like last season for example, the 4-3-1-2 pattern became Ancelotti's mainstay. Vini and Rodriygo became the front strikers, while Bellingham was behind them as a shadow striker who was free to move anywhere. proven, Bellingham was able to score many goals in his first season. but the current situation is not ideal for Ancelotti, because some of their players are injured. besides, it would be a shame if Mbappe only sat on the bench even with the option of playing in the second half for example. it seems not easy for Ancelotti to formulate a strategy and pattern that immediately fits, especially with the presence of Mbappe. surely Ancelotti tries to formulate several methods and the impact of trial and error becomes an inseparable part. I think Don Carlo and the experts who help him will try so that Madrid can return to their real performance, after all they have quality players. the problem is, their game has not reached its maximum especially with Mbappe. so, Ancelotti has homework that he must fix. despite some Madrid players who are injured, they will slowly find their highest rhythm of play.

Athletic Club vs Real Madrid team Yesterday match Athletic Club team scored 2 goals and Real Madrid team scored 1 goal. I could not accept the poor performance of Real Madrid team players because I was a Real Madrid team supporter in this match. Real Madrid team could not perform well in the first stage of the game. J. Bellingham scored 1 goal in the 78th minute. Athletic Club team player Álex Berenguer scored the 1st goal in the 53rd minute and G. Guruzeta scored the 2nd goal in the 80th minute to win the match.

This should have been a match that Real Madrid could win to catch up on Barcelona's points. But in the end the results of the match said otherwise, Real Madrid had to lose narrowly to Bilbao, even though in the match Real Madrid had many opportunities to score more goals. And even in this match Real Madrid got a penalty kick, but Mbappe failed to finish it well.

On the other hand, I was very impressed with the first goal scored by Álex Berenguer in the 53rd minute, a quick and precise decision to kick from the left side outside the penalty box. And at the end of the match that Real Madrid expected to score the winning goal, Real Madrid's defenders made a blunder, so they had to concede and lose this match.

- Betis - Barcelona : 1.61
- Girona - Real Madrid : 1.75
- Atletico Madrid - Sevilla : 1.43

Total odds for all these favourites to win this week are 4.03.

Not bad for giving it a chance though.    Betis have a really bad form recently. A streak of 4 games without a win. I think Barcelona will make use of it with the help of the morale boost they got from that 5-1 win over Mallorca.

Real Madrid got a loss against Athletic Bilbao the last time you know. They are more unpredictable while Vinicius Junior isn't able to play. But I believe they will find a way to beat Girona and the odds seem very tempting.

Lastly Atletico Madrid have been doing great for a while. While Sevilla aren't in their good shape, I believe Simeone will hunt them down in this home game.

[len01]

What do you think about this somewhat unpredictable match?
Celta is in 12th place in the standings with a worse defense. However, in attack, they have performed much better than Mallorca.
While Mallorca currently has a much better defense but does not have great strength in attack.
The bookmakers currently favor Celta but I think I have an assumption that Mallorca can hold this match to a draw relying on their defense. It seems that betting on Mallorca +0.5 with odds @1.95 is a good choice.

From their match between Athletic Club vs Real Madrid, I only highlighted Mbappe's failure in terms of penalty execution which at least could have made the score equal if Mbappe could score a goal from the penalty kick. But Real Madrid fans had to accept defeat in the match because Mbappe failed to score a goal even though the opportunity was very good for him and the Real Madrid team. However, it has happened and it cannot be denied because there are still many matches that must be thought through more carefully by the Real Madrid team and also by Ancelotti as the Real Madrid coach.

Mbappe has much more experience compared to these young players, but the problem is that Mbappe can not cope with the pressure that is put on him in Real Madrid, and from the fans and perhaps with the failures that he faces in the team. In Monaco and PSG he was a leader, in Real Madrid it seems that he does not have such a status and is unlikely to be able to get it, so he will have to go through all this, and this will determine whether he can become the leader of the attack of Real or not, so far Ancelotti believes in him.

I like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid odds, but i hate to see Real Madrid's odds. This was due to the tempting, but small, odds on Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Those clubs worthy to bet on as it shows confidence to win the game. Unlike the game of Real madrid, it is very hard to predict, they got 1.80 now and i hate this. Their odds seem to try to sell if this is gonna be a hard game for them.

I'm picking Barcelona, Atletico madrid, BTTS/Draw for Real Madrid vs Girona. Madrid's odds are decent, but i'm not feeling confident with their current performance. It seems to me BTTS or Draw is a sense choice for me.

I may be changing my mind if Ancelotti drops Mbappe from their line up, he was enemy for his club.

[armanda90]

This weekend Real Madrid will travel to Girona which is a team that has also started to be less good in La Liga, so Ancelotti should prepare his team's ability to be able to win and not lose again like they experienced at Athletic Club's home yesterday. And I also agree when saying about the experience that Ancelotti has because he is indeed able to change the situation of a team that is having problems into a strong team without being read by his opponents. But for now I think all teams have known that Real Madrid is facing injuries to some of their players this season.

Girona have quit well performance in domestic league after not defeating in last four consecutives matches and success winning three of four last matches, indeed can't perform well in Champion League but Girona become huge problem for Madrid after having inconsistency performance this season and last match defeating by Athletic Bilbao. Carlo Ancelotti have much problem recently due busy schedule matches have to play two until three matches every week and other side have many keys players got injury.

Vinicius Jr still not confirming yet will return for next match against Girona or Ancelotti keep save him for UEFA Champion League match when facing Atalanta, Madrid have to win the next match if won't have many points left from Barcelona after failure take the first place defeating by Athletic Bilabo last match and Madrid have one match left against Valencia.
