La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[blue Snow]

Espanyol Vs Real Madrid 0 - 0 HT, what a boring half I really can't say if there's a highlight in this game so far. Real Madrid are so relaxed in the game that they hardly pushed attack despite the opponent sitting back in their own half. Although Real Madrid would have been a goal up from Vini wonderful curl into the bottom corner, but Mbappe happened to foul a defender before the strike, so the goal was chopped off.
Sincerely, I hope nothing really happened to Rudiger as he was taken off and replaced by Asencio in the 15 minute of play. Lets see how the second half goes, if Real Madrid will respond and act like the champions they are in this game.

It was really unexpected performance from the Real Madrid team on first half, although they have the most match position in this match and as well they were playing aggressive but something is missing on their performance.
I thought against Espanyol, Real Madrid  attackers will played smooth roll but they only meet on short on target what is also done by Espanyol. Its Pretty sad that if this way the next time pass there is a high prove ability of draw in this match. Even then I still believe that Real Madrid team will win this match by at least one goal. Hoping some good in the second half

Real Madrid have not played this bad in a long time. They did not play the match as people that are playing a weaker team instead the match was just as dull as anything. I think at this point, Espanyol deserve the win since Real Madrid did not play like they wanted the win. Espanyol even missed several goals that would have made them score more goals than they did score, although Vinicius Jr also had put the ball inside net but such was disallowed, it was a fantastic finishing, similar to the goal scored by Mo Salah earlier today against Bournemouth.  This match just made the league title a little opened for competition between the majorly Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid and by extension Barcelona.

I saw a pessimistic thing when watching the beginning of the match, yes, I saw Mbappe and Vini jr in the front together in the squad. This is a thing that makes uncomfortable. there is also Bellingham and Rodrygo. it will certainly be very confusing between them, and that is happen, their attacks are not so effective. there was confusion in the midfield to passing a ball to who. It should be only one, Mbappe or Vini. I admit, even Vini a bit backward but will definitely be confused about who to give the ball to. I don't know what Anceloti think, maybe he changed it so that it could not be read by the opponent, but it's happen as blunder.

85 minutes Espanyol takes the lead, Real Madrid couldn't find the back of the net after so many attempts I think they can't get back in the game because Espanyol is ready to defend the goal and they are doing that already since they have less than  10 minutes before the end of the game. Real Madrid has made a lot of bettors to lose money as a result of this result but Atletico Madrid will be happy with the result before they have 1 points  to close the gap between them and Real Madrid sin e they are performing well I think they have a chance to win the league this season.

Yeah it was a bit of a surprise for us after Real Madrid's consistent play in the last few matches but today they had to lose, of course no one thought this would happen but luck is on everyone's side. This defeat will open up opportunities for Atletico Madrid and Barcelona to catch up like Atletico Madrid need 2 more points to take over while Barcelona need 7-8 points.

This is something that I didn't really expect because Madrid's performance is sometimes a little difficult to guess which makes situations that are actually very profitable for them but cannot be maximized properly which makes things not in accordance with the desired expectations.

Their dominance is not bad and we can see how their possession of the ball is actually very good in attack determination but when things like this cannot be maximized properly, it makes conditions that should be good enough cannot be full points owned.

This kind of scheme with Vini does not seem to be very effective because seeing from what happened before when Vini could not play due to card penalties, this scheme was actually quite optimal but when Vini was in the squad with Vini, Mbappe and Rodrygo as their trident, it did not have good optimization. Something wasn't quite right but Ancelotti couldn't figure out what to do.

This defeat will open up opportunities for Atletico Madrid and Barcelona to catch up like Atletico Madrid need 2 more points to take over while Barcelona need 7-8 points.

But I already guessed from the beginning that Real Madrid would not win this match but in my heart I said it would be a draw but in reality they lost, if you look at Espanyol they are quite good at home they have collected 21 points from their 12 home games so far, of course it is not easy for Real Madrid to beat them at home even though Real Madrid dominates the entire match, and Espanyol's goalkeeper did a lot in this match he was extraordinary and for me he was the best in this match.

In my opinion Ancelotti must change his style of play or rather he must dare to bench players and also withdraw players who are not performing well, like Vinicius in this match he had quite a hard time and in my opinion he should be rested first because Rodrygo he played very completely if he played to replace Vini, and losing Rudiger also made Real Madrid's defense not so solid, and I hope he recovers quickly because a big match awaits them.

A very surprising defeat, Real Madrid who appeared dominant in the last few matches actually lost points to Espanyol who are in the relegation zone. After Real Madrid dropped points at Espanyol, the situation in the top three is now interesting. Atletico who won against Mallorca, has a chance to take over the top of the standings, while Barcelona has the chance to reduce the points gap and heat up the competition for the title again.

Espanyol victory not only helped the competition become more exciting at the top of the standings, the additional 3 points took them out of the relegation zone.

[Bitcoin_people]

It is a shame for Real Madrid that they lost to a team that was in the relegation zone. Despite their excellent performance in the last few matches, they lost in this important match and it is nothing but a shame for them and they lost three points. However, Real Madrid tried hard enough in the match and they attacked a lot but the goalkeeper of the Espanyol team made many saves. However, this was bound to happen because Real Madrid might have thought that their opponent was a normal team so they would get an easy win, but they did not think that a normal team could change their game at any time. Since Atletico Madrid is currently only one point behind them, they will surpass Real Madrid at any time.

I think at this point, Espanyol deserve the win since Real Madrid did not play like they wanted the win.

Real Madrid played very badly and did not show energy and effort you would expect from top team. Espanyol on the other hand played well and deserved to win. They had many chances to score and showed they really wanted to win. Goal that Vinicius Jr scored but was not counted was amazing just like Mo Salah goal against Bournemouth. Now competition for league title is more exciting with Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid and Barcelona all having chance to win.

[Solokan]

I thought Real Madrid would win the match against Espanyol because I thought Real Madrid had improved their performance and would definitely be able to beat Espanyol easily but to be honest the result of this match really disappointed me because I bet on Real Madrid winning and in the end I lost and of course this is really true. startled me. I think that with the many opportunities that Real Madrid creates, Real Madrid will be able to score lots of goals, but yes, of course, here the Real Madrid attacking players seem to have dropped in performance and of course it will definitely make Real Madrid fans disappointed because of course Real Madrid fans want Real Madrid to win at that match. Yes, I'm sure many people will be disappointed with this result and many will definitely lose their bets.

Even though they didn't control much of the ball, Espanyol really performed extraordinary in this match and honestly I didn't expect Espanyol to appear impressive in today's match by beating last season's champions (Real Madrid) and now Espanyol is really happy because of this victory and of course Now Espanyol has moved up the rankings and has been able to get out of the relegation zone. Of course, now Real Madrid must be willing to be defeated by Espanyol and of course now Ancelotti must really improve Real Madrid because of course if this is allowed to continue, of course there is the potential that Real Madrid will not become champions this season and this will certainly provide an opportunity for other teams to unseat them. Of course, in my opinion, Real Madrid's defense also needs to be improved. In your opinion, is it possible that Real Madrid will continue to decline in performance?

I really didn't expect that Real Madrid would achieve such a bad result in this match. Because if you look at it in general, Real Madrid is superior in every aspect. So for these reasons I believe that Real Madrid can win this match by a landslide. But the reality was completely unexpected, because in this match Real Madrid had to be satisfied with losing and failed to get the full 3 points. So with this, Real Madrid's position at the top of the standings has become a little unsafe. Because currently the difference in points between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, which is ranked 2nd, is only 1 point. For this reason, Real Madrid's current position is not safe at the top of the standings.



Apart from that, next week Real Madrid will play Atletico Madrid in Laliga. I think this match will be decisive for Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. Because whoever can win this match will definitely be at the top of the standings. Therefore, Ancelotti must prepare his team as best as possible. So as not to repeat mistakes like what happened in the match against Espanyol last night. Because in the match against Espanyol, Real Madrid really couldn't take advantage of opportunities well, and Ancelotti really needs to fix this in preparation for the match against Atletico Madrid.

I disagree with you. Real Madrid played well against their opponent Espanyol but couldn't score. In fact, luck was not on Madrid's side they attacked a lot from the start and were practically desperate for a goal. A few minutes into the match, Madrid's experienced defender Antonio Rudiger left the field due to injury, which was a big blow for the team. Vinicius scored in the 22 minute of the match, but the goal was disallowed due to a foul. Mbappe and Bellingham continued their efforts to score, but as time passed they were unable to score. In the 76th minute of the match, Rodrygo's excellent goal shot was resisted by the Espanyol goalkeeper, who then resisted another goal opportunity. Despite having the ball in their possession for most of the match Espanyol stunned the Madrid fans with a brilliant goal in the 85th minute, but Madrid could not make much of an advantage in the next few minutes and lost.

Madrid had a good day if not for the loss and the injury of Antonio Rudiger. They took control of every aspect of the game but couldn't score a goal because of greed and the heroic display of Joan García. Most of the shots that Real Madrid attackers took would have been a goal of the decided to assist and give a pass. Mbappe, Rodrigo and Vinicius Jnr were all guilty of exhibiting some selfish traits in the game. Mbappe caused Vinicius goal to be disallowed when he intentionally pushed down a player in the box, hope he has learned some lesson.

Espanyol's goalkeeper was outstanding, he had seven saves. The vacuum that Rudiger's absence showed when Real defenders were unable to curtail a counterattacking run which resulted in the only goal.

Yet you call it a good day. If Antonio Rudiger wouldn't have had that injury, you would still call it a good day because Real Madrid played well but lost the game. Perhaps you could ask the whole management team and the players of Real Madrid whether they would call it a good day besides Antonio Rudiger's injury.

It was one of the worst days Real Madrid could have this season and I don't know why you see this differently. Out of 22 games they now lost for the third time, allowing Barcelona to come closer and you call it a good day.

I believe you know what counts for these teams: three points! These teams call it a good day when they play bad and win three points because that is what matters when they want to win titles. They would never call a defeat a good day regardless of how they played the game.

Losing a match is never a good day for any team, and in this defeat, Mbappe was attacked badly by opponent and his career can be terminated immediately by that severe back tackle. I am unsure why the referee did not use a direct red card in that situation, because it is very popularlly known that any tackle like that is very deserved with a direct red card.

This defeat is a big minus for Real Madrid in La Liga titte competition but at least they certainly lead the league after that, but now with 1 point more than Atletico Madrid, and perhaps 4 points more than Barcelona if Barcelona win their match today. It affects Real Madrid advantage against two main competitors for the title, but it's still not enough to cost them a first position after this week.

Those category that place wager on games, you do see them frowning faces? Ofcourse the vast majority are complaining about the dissapointing defeats of Real Madrid because they're elite team and sits in proper position to win this particular game. Then what went wrong? Carlo Ancelotti lost again and this time, it makes Diego Simeone closer to him with just a point behind. These things do happen because winning and losses are consider possible game outcome. Real Madrid had a shocking defeats against Espanyol. Los Blancos lost at stage front ground and this was no coincidence but much hardwork put in by the hosts.

Joan Garcia deserves his accolades because he was present on the pitch, he exert stellar performance against the visitors, he made crucial saves held back Real Madrid from reaching their peak. Garcia was awarded MOTM based on his statistical extreme data, the main man to see Espanyol accumulating three points.

It is very shameful for Real Madrid they lost this match against Espanyol which is in 18th position in the league table, I was very disappointed with this performance because some Real Madrid key players did not play well, players like Vinicius and Bellingham did not perform well yesterday, the only players that perform well yesterday is Kylian Mbappe, Rodrygo and Courtios, I was doubting Atletico Madrid that they can not defeat Mallorca easy and Atletico Madrid easily win their match without no any stress.

In the Real Madrid match yesterday there were many errors in the match and I think La Liga needs to find a solution to the mistake from the referee, a player who scored a goal for Espanyol was supposed to be sent out for the tackle he gave Mbappe from behind and the referee pretend like he did not see anything wrong with the tackle, Real Madrid needs to take the matter serious to show those referee their work, I believe if it was Premier League the player will be sent out immediately after that tackle.

[knowngunman]

85 minutes Espanyol takes the lead, Real Madrid couldn't find the back of the net after so many attempts I think they can't get back in the game because Espanyol is ready to defend the goal and they are doing that already since they have less than  10 minutes before the end of the game. Real Madrid has made a lot of bettors to lose money as a result of this result but Atletico Madrid will be happy with the result before they have 1 points  to close the gap between them and Real Madrid sin e they are performing well I think they have a chance to win the league this season.

It's unfortunate for both Madrid and the gamblers. If care is not taken, it will cost Madrid dearly if they continue to drop point unnecessarily at this stage. It's funny how Ancelotti was bragging at the beginning of season for having quality players and now he can't make anything good out of them. Perhaps, it's time to realise that he was just one among the lucky coaches but tactically he's very poor tbh. Statistically, Madrid hasn't won against any decent team this season or played any convincing games. They always struggle to win or even get a draw in most of their matches this season. I just hope things get better soon else they'll exit the UCL early and eventually lose the league too.

Maybe you didn't understand what I said. It simply means that if you subtract the loss and the injury of Rudiger, the club had a good day. I said that because they dominated the game from the start to finish but it became a disappointing match since they lost and one of their most important players was injured. Certainly if you lose a game that you would have won convincing, it was indeed a bad day.

Real Madrid usually don't drop points against smaller teams. So the result of the match against Espanyol was completely unexpected. Espanyol was a team in the relegation zone. So we all expected Real Madrid to win easily in this match. I'm sure many gamblers like me bet on Real Madrid to win this match and lost money.

Real Madrid was unlucky in this match. Real Madrid players were able to have 77% of the ball possession. Madrid dominated the match. Real Madrid players were able to have a total of 21 shots, 7 of which were on target. Espanyol's defenders and goalkeeper played great in this match, there is no doubt about it. Espanyol successfully repelled the powerful attacks of Madrid players.

Before the match started, we all thought that Madrid would win easily in the match because the opponent they faced was only a team in the relegation zone, even for a draw in the match we all don't think of it because of the fact that Madrid was actually superior to Espanyol on every front, but what we saw was that they had to succumb to a weak team even though every point is currently very crucial for Madrid,  In my opinion, the loss of Rudiger has changed Madrid's game pattern which is actually their defense is starting to be easy to be exploited by Espanyol, especially from the counterattack scheme, Madrid managed to dominate the game but the solid defense built by Espanyol actually made Mbappe, Vinicius and Rodrygo lose their sharpness in the match, the defeat from Espanyol began to make Madrid position at the top  the standings threatened at the moment,Especially after Atletico Madrid in another match managed to win over Mallorca and made the Madrid and atletico madrid only 1 point apart now.

I just hope things get better soon else they'll exit the UCL early and eventually lose the league too.

For Ancelotti it is a tactical defeat as the team lost points and Atletico Madrid will soon replace them. Madrid should have been more focused on their good performance and more tactical in deciding the fate of the match against the team below them. The loss against Espanyol could have sparked more debate about their ability. You are right that it was a tough time for the bettors and many bettors lost their money due to Madrid defeat. No one could have imagined that Madrid could lose to Espanyol. Despite being a relatively small team they performed very well and deserve praise. Statistically, Real Madrid has not won against good teams, which is true, but they have tried to be consistent by playing well in the last four matches, including an unexpected loss against a small team.

Madrid should be more careful and prepare better for the upcoming matches by changing their tactics. The players should have played better with the top players trying to prove their worth and score goals. The professional behavior of the Espanyol defense and the responsible keeping of the goalkeeper thwarted many of Madrid scoring opportunities.

It is a shame for Real Madrid that they lost to a team that was in the relegation zone. Despite their excellent performance in the last few matches, they lost in this important match and it is nothing but a shame for them and they lost three points. However, Real Madrid tried hard enough in the match and they attacked a lot but the goalkeeper of the Espanyol team made many saves. However, this was bound to happen because Real Madrid might have thought that their opponent was a normal team so they would get an easy win, but they did not think that a normal team could change their game at any time. Since Atletico Madrid is currently only one point behind them, they will surpass Real Madrid at any time.

Seeing Real Madrid's improved performance in some matches, I predicted without a doubt that they would win this match, and I didn't even hesitate to bet on that match. In fact, many people are very willing to bet on big teams, but those teams can't suddenly win the match. Similarly, Real Madrid could not win yesterday's match, but it can be said without a doubt that they played very well in that match.

The most surprising thing about this match was that Real Madrid attacked a lot and they tried to score a lot of goals but they couldn't do it properly. In this match, the Espanyol goalkeeper must be praised, his many important contributions have helped his team win despite being in the relegation zone.
