La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[hahay]

For a strong team like Madrid, the memory of the loss to Espanyol, a team at the bottom of the La Liga points table, may not be remembered, but they should pick up the mistakes from that match and decide the strategy.

The defeat must have been very embarrassing for Real Madrid because they were defeated by the weakest club in the league and certainly will always be an which is not easily forgotten of fans and feel the feelings of disappointed bettors because of course many who favored Real Madrid including myself who did not expect to lose. Even though Madrid had tried to make many shots in the match but none of them were converted into goals. Espanyol goalkeeper Joan García played well by making many saves and I must admit Espanyol really made it difficult for Real Madrid.

Playing with the main squad only playing against Espanyol and is a team that is in the lower zone of the standings, there should be  no reason for failure, because the match is certain to be an easy win for Real Madrid. But yes, in football anything can happen, but a result like that is certainly  very disappointing, besides the defeat,the total score in the match was really low which is very unpredictable. For the next match, Real Madrid will play at home against Atletico and of course, for a bigmatch like  that their performance will  be very different when they play with Espanyol who underestimated their opponents and got  a very embarrassing defeat.

It is hard to accept that Madrid will lose against a team in the relegation zone. Usually we see Madrid perform well against smaller teams. But completely unexpectedly, Real Madrid lost in this match. Madrid lost 1-0.

I watched the game on TV, in my opinion the Real Madrid coach doesn't have a good alternative of attackers for Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo when they are not able to score goals. Endrick doesn't even play. So Real Madrid needs at least 2 excellent attackers so that in cases where the game is goalless, they enter the field and score goals, this will also force Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo to play well because they will be afraid to sit on the bench.

The result of the Real Madrid away game at Espanyol over the weekend didn't just cost me the money I used in staking on a Real Madrid win but also left me disappointed as a passionate fan of Real Madrid. It was absolutely unbelievable that Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti named the strongest line up available to him and still lost to a team that's fighting relegation.
At the end, football is one game that'll surprise you with shocking results when you least expected it so we just have to accept the result and move on with the hope that the reigning Spanish and European champions will recover from the defeat ahead of their next fixtures

Indeed, there were so many people who were disappointed with the result of the match, including me. Yes, before Real Madrid's match against Espanyol we saw that the previous 4 Real Madrid matches were very good in Laliga and UCL and the Real Madrid players performed very impressively which ultimately made many people very confident that against Espanyol there would definitely be great potential for Real Madrid to win. Yes, the point is that Real Madrid is now far from what many people expected, which of course means many are disappointed with Real Madrid.

Yes, Ancelotti was also unable to penetrate Espanyol's back line well in this match, so the Real Madrid players couldn't take advantage of many opportunities. and I also see that of course the Real Madrid players are also currently reducing decrease performance, yes of course at this time we can only see their next actions whether they will be able to win the next match or not.

Yes, it's true what you said, ultimately football is a match that always gives surprises and will always surprise us with the results. and what is certain is that we can only watch and hope that Ancelotti can improve Real Madrid well. Of course now Ancelotti must really be able to make Real Madrid perform better because of course in the UCL match against Manchester City in the play off round they must win and also in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals they must win against Leganes and they must also be able to win in the next match at Laliga because if Atletico win it will certainly be dangerous for Real Madrid and of course Real Madrid will be eliminated from the top of the standings if Atletico Madrid succeeds in beating Real Madrid in that match.

This season's La Liga is full of surprises and it has been really unfriendly to the bettors as none of the three candidates have been able to play consistently. Even for a match that should have been won easily, they actually lost points, and that means it was a loss for us because we bet on them to win.

Frankly, I was surprised with Ancelotti who still hasn't made any move in the transfer window, even though he should have known that his defense line really sucks, and that could be a stumbling block in the title race. If it was Barcelona it would still be understandable as they don't have much money left.

That's true because the standings can change so quickly and it is difficult to predict the game for any team. I lost bets on matches that should have been easier to win for strong teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona but in fact it happened beyond expectations. Some moments actually ruined the bet such as indications of match fixing even though it didn't happen as we assumed and it was more natural and a form of inconsistency of the club that we favored to win.

It is surprising because until now Real Madrid have not shown any interest in new players and it seems they are not making any effort to bring in new players, even though they understand that the defense looks so inconsistent and is a big problem right now.

[Litzki1990]

Barcelona did not win a spectacular victory today but they managed to get the three points with Lewandoski's goal.

Barcelona had a lot of chances to score many goals but was not lucky yet because Owono often made brilliant saves. Yamal performed really well last night; He made an incredible move by drilling the ball to pass several Alaves players. When I saw him dribble like that, I was like seeing Messi on him. Yamal also playing impressive to stumble over Alaves defender, maybe because the Alaves defenders are very disciplined making Yamal pass and shot are easy to block, and I am sure if it's another club, Barcelona might be able to score 3 or 4 goals last night. but it's enough to minimize the point gap between Real Madrid and Atletico.

It was more important for Barcelona to win against Alavés and they ended up winning against this team. While Barcelona won their match, Real Madrid did not win their own match, instead dropping a late point against a weaker opponent. I thought maybe Real Madrid would take their 49 points to 52 points but it didn't happen Real Madrid's points are in the previous position but Barcelona has improved the points table on the other hand. If it continues like this in the next two or one match, Barcelona will be very close to Real Madrid's points. Espanyol is not a strong team at all, so every Real Madrid fan expected that they would win against this team for sure. I myself bet for Real Madrid but I lost money in this match, however I hope Real Madrid will be careful in future matches.

It's a disappointed result for Real Madrid, and it's actually bad for them, but with two other competitors for La Liga title, it's good. Both Atletico Madrid and Barcelona took advantage of this defeat of Real Madrid very well to reduce point differences in La Liga with Real Madrid to only 1 and 4 points.

Results of three top clubs in La Liga this week make the title competition more exciting and in coming weeks, all three competitors will have to play their matches with full focus. Real Madrid no longer have big point advantages against Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, and they're aware that only 1 more bad match, they will lose a first position to Atletico Madrid, and 2 bad matches will have risk of falling to a third position in La Liga.

The 1-0 defeat to Espanyol was truly embarrassing for a team like Real Madrid. Because Real Madrid should also be able to win against a team as weak as Espanyol. But in reality it wasn't like that, Real Madrid actually lost in the final minutes of the second half. So with this, Real Madrid must definitely pay for this defeat by winning the upcoming match. Then in the upcoming match, you are right, Real Madrid will face Atletico Madrid who are currently in 2nd place in Laliga. I think Real Madrid has great potential to lose in this match. Because I see that Atletico Madrid's performance is really good at the moment. So if, for example, Real Madrid plays with the performance they did against Espanyol, it is very likely that Ancelotti's team will lose.

But fortunately, this match will be held at Madrid headquarters, which will certainly be quite a good advantage for Real Madrid. So with direct support from the supporters, the spirit of the Real Madrid players should be even better in this match. Then Real Madrid must show their good performance in this match. Because if Real Madrid loses again in this match, I think the shame will be much greater than when they lost against Espanyol. Because the problem is that this match is being held at Real Madrid's headquarters, so if for example Real Madrid loses again, the fans will definitely boo the players directly after the match is over. So behind the advantages of playing at home, I think the risks are also quite big for Real Madrid. For this reason, Real Madrid must be able to get the full three points in next week's match.

The worst about it is that Real Madrid pretty much played with their best eleven. But they still have the lead and as long as that is the case, a defeat like that may have an effect that is rather like a wake up call than a sign of a crisis.

But what I don't get over and over again is when I see the game statistics and there is one team that has 2 shots on target the entire game while the other team is attacking without a single break for 90 minutes and they can't score despite having players like Mbappe and Vinicius Junior. It is unbelievable and it is evident that both Vinicius Junior and Mbappe are not a goal guarantee like Ronaldo once used to be. He didn't score 100% of the time, but it would be interesting to look up in how many games he actually didn't score. I know that his average if I recall correctly was more than 1 goal per game.

But it is the same for Barcelona. One game they can score 7 goals and then the next game they can hardly beat Alaves at home and it's a tight game till the very last minute.

[mamesso]

After Real Madrid lost to Espanyol on matchday 22, the La Liga title race is heating up. Barcelona continues to press in third place with 45 points from 22 matches, Barcelona attack quality is still very sharp, they have the highest goal difference in the league (+36).
The Madrid derby must be used with a win to reduce the gap with Atletico and Real Madrid, losing points from one of these clubs is very beneficial for Barcelona who are trying to reclaim the top of the standings.

At his debut match today unfortunately Antony was unable to bring Betis to collect 3 points but at least Betis didn't lost but they have to satisfied with draw result however you might be surprised with the news that after the match Real Betis vs Bilbao Antony was awarded as man of the match i can says although Antony didn't make a goal or assist but his debut match is run well even Antony has the highest rating player in this match and i know it's too early but i feel like seems Antony will reach to his top perform again at Betis

Antony is a man of the match based on google's vote, not his performance.

If we judge based on his performance, he's actually the third worst player among 11 starting players lol. 0 goal, 0 assist, but he has aura, that's why he becomes MOTM.

It's really funny like, he becomes big after so many memes created in social medias. Although we can say Antony looks more successful in entertainment, but he shouldn't choose to retire from football and become a comedian because his appearance in football is actually the most important thing how he can be popular like now.

Antony seems to have a strong mentality, he doesn't care about the ridicule of many people on social media that has happened since long ago, but he remains confident by continuing to show his signature gestures.

Regarding Antony's performance on his debut with Betis, I think it is still understandable, in fact Antony was lucky to be given a lot of playing time so that he should slowly be more motivated to show his best performance because since he was with Man United, Antony's performance has been very bad and I think at his young age he has many opportunities to be able to return to his top performance, I will not underestimate Antony now even though now many people on social media make memes about him that are very excessive so that they seem to bully him.

The winning result from Alaves is not too satisfied because Barcelona should be won with more goals but at least from that match Barcelona still able to earn 3 points and according to the schedules for Laliga matches i have seen in terms of schedule Barcelona has the advantage rather than Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid this because for this month Barcelona only faced Sevilla, Rayo and Las Palmas which i think if Barcelona can able to utilise these matches to earn 3 points each i am sure Barcelona can cut their point gap with Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid

[Tamaperdana]

In the coming week, Barcelona will face Sevilla. I think this match will be very easy for Barcelona. Considering Barcelona's current performance is definitely far superior to Sevilla, because if you look at the head to head record between Barcelona and Sevilla, the result is that Barcelona is truly unbeatable. The proof is in the 5 meetings between Sevilla and Barcelona, ​​the result being that Barcelona managed to wipe out the 5 matches with an absolute victory. So this can be a pretty good reference for predicting the results of future matches. Apart from that, Sevilla's performance in the last few seasons has been very bad. Because Sevilla's performance last season was very poor, the proof was that they were only able to finish in 14th position in La Liga and therefore Sevilla failed to enter international competitions such as the Europa League. Therefore, I think the Barcelona VS Sevilla match will most likely be won by Barcelona. Therefore I will bet on Barcelona in this match.

The Girona match against Las Palmas certainly made me happy because I bet on Girona winning and finally I was able to recover the money I had lost because in betting on the Real Madrid match against Espanyol at that time I favored Real Madrid to win. In the Las Palmas match against Girona, of course it is easy to predict because of course in terms of ranking, Girona and Las Palmas are of course very different so I am sure that Girona will be able to win that match. Did you all also succeed in betting on Girona's match against Las Palmas?

Now Girona has managed to get the full 3 points from Las Palmas and this has certainly made Girona supporters more enthusiastic in supporting Girona. but it's a shame that in this match Ruiz failed to execute a penalty kick even though this was a golden opportunity for Girona to make Girona score more goals. Of course, fortunately Girona can win this match and I hope that Michel can make Girona's performance continue to rise until they can finally get it back. tickets to UCL in the coming season.
Now Girona, who is in 7th place, is certainly not easy to get a ticket to the Champions League and honestly, I want to know your opinion, is it possible that Girona will win a ticket to the Champions League again or not or will they only be able to get a ticket to the Europa League?

In the next match, Girona will face Bilbao, in my opinion this is very exciting and to be honest, I'm confused about predicting this match, although of course Bilbao's squad is stronger than Girona, but there could be surprises. Who do you think will win that match?

Girona did not start this season well and did not make great impression like the last season but they are in a middle of season with good chance to climb to the sixth or fifth position, that is good if they can finish this season there.

With this win against Las Palmas, Girona have 31 points and above them, there are Rayo Vallecano with 32 points and Villareal with 37 points. Girona are not too far from a fifth position that is currently held by Villareal, only 6 points less.

Losing some star players including their main striker and scorer last season Dovbyk, but generally Girona performances in this season are good enough.

In the next match, Girona will face Bilbao, in my opinion this is very exciting and to be honest, I'm confused about predicting this match, although of course Bilbao's squad is stronger than Girona, but there could be surprises. Who do you think will win that match?

Bilbao are too far from Girona, but if Girona want to get a fifth position from Villareal, they will need to play well and get good results in many matches head, not only the coming match with a strong opponent like Bilbao.

It's hard to say who'll win between Real Madrid and Athletico Madrid on Saturday but judging from their recent matches and overall performance, Madrid seems to be more favourable despite losing to Espanyol in their last game. Athletico Madrid normally play better when they meet Madrid but their tactics of parking the bus doesn't always pay off. It would be more interesting to watch since both teams are striving for the top spot on the standing table. I don't think Madrid can afford to lose further points because any mistakes that drop them from this table would mean they're likely not winning the league this season as Barcelona is on standby too. Barcelona should not be too relaxed because they are facing Sevilla on Sunday and they always look like a bone on throat to Barcelona.

Madrid derby is always fierce and it will not be easy for both teams, especially now that Athletico Madrid and Real Madrid are competing fiercely to win the top position in the standings, of course that is more motivation for both teams.

Anything is possible and Real Madrid also cannot maintain the consistency of their performance so far, especially the defeat last weekend is proof so I think there is nothing much to expect from Real Madrid, they are now at the top of the standings with only a 1 point advantage, of course it is a burden in itself due to the pressure given by Athletico Madrid and also Barcelona.

Both Atletico Madrid and Barcelona took advantage of this defeat of Real Madrid very well to reduce point differences in La Liga with Real Madrid to only 1 and 4 points.

Now the gap is only 1 point from Real Madrid, and coincidentally the weekend both meet to decide who deserves to be at the top of the standings. On the other hand, Barcelona will be a threat if Madrid continues to lose points, because Madrid consistency is not so ideal considering they don't have many defender options and only rely on available players. Rudiger was injured in yesterday match against Espanyol so this will put Tchuameni longer in the back position. As we know that is not his original position and Tchouameni is quite bad placed as a defender.

Sometimes it normally happens like this, anything can happen in football which you can see Real Madrid performance was not bad which they dominated the game more,  I think Espanyol were lucky in the game by scoring a goal against Real Madrid but their defence was quite impressive that made the Real Madrid players to struggled in the game but it didn't work out for them . The victory of Espanyol is a big boost from them , atleast they are out from relegation. 

Another reason why I think Real Madrid lose opportunity of winning this game was the teams injury woes which rudiger was substituted in the early minutes of the game.

Since Atletico Madrid is also included in the race between Barcelona and Real Madrid, we will watch a fierce competition between the three teams. We may be watching the most enjoyable championship race in Spain in recent years. I want Real Madrid to be the champion, but I must say that all three teams are serious candidates for the championship. Barcelona's attacking power seems better, but they also make more mistakes in defense.

Madrid are not ideal for a winning streak, especially with their players battling injuries. The biggest threat to them is their weak defense and the lack of options to strengthen them. Still, I don't see any reason to take Real Madrid lightly. Real Madrid's strikers will have a big responsibility against Atletico. If Real Madrid's strikers can dominate Atletico Madrid and maintain this dominance throughout the match, the result of the match could go in Madrid's favor. Winning the qualifying match for the top spot will not be easy for any team. We are going to see a tough match. Barcelona will probably keep an eye on this match, because there is an opportunity here for them.
