La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Adbitco]

Xabi Alonso is currently progressing in the ongoing FIFA Club world cup and Real Madrid is the only team now left from the Spanish La Liga to still be in the competition after their counterpart Atletico Madrid exited the competition in the group stages. Real Madrid just finished their game against Juventus in the Round of 16 which they won by a single goal 1 - 0. Juventus were so resistant in the game that Real Madrid could only put one goal past. Out of 11 shots on target, the goal keeper was their hero of as he saw off those from getting past him into the net. Real Madrid continues to represent Spain as always.

I will not use Xabi Alonso's performance in the Club World Cup to say Xabi Alonso has proven himself at Real Madrid because the Club World Cup isn't competitive enough to give Xabi Alonso the challenge he needs to use and prove himself at Real Madrid, but I know Xabi Alonso is the right man for Real Madrid, and he can guide Real Madrid to win the La Liga title and the UEFA Champions League trophy.

For self-proof of course not only measured from this alone but at least by looking at Madrid's performance in the club world cup at least this gives a little bigger hope for Xabi in navigating the new season with several competitions later.

Currently Xabi gets a good opportunity to try out several players before the next trial with a friendly match (after the CWC is finished). Of course he already has an idea now where the gaps need to be fixed and what scheme will be suitable later.

He still has a lot of time to prove himself so for now even though I will still give praise but it does not mean he has proven himself that he is capable because he has not even started anything for the season that will run because the benchmark is clear after the season later how he determines his attitude whether he can really contribute well or his mentality decreases when coaching a club as big as Madrid.

You don't expect a team like Madrid to exit the tournament at this stage of the competition apart from PSG that I see that will pose as a threat I don't see any other team that can stand towards to tow with Madrid because their team is one of the best teams in the world

Maybe you are right, or wrong. The reason for this is very simple, Barcelona could not win the Champions League title last season even with the strongest team. The main reason for this, we may know, is the lack of luck. On paper, Real Madrid does not have much of an opponent. But to reach the final, they still need to win 2 more matches. If Real Madrid and PSG had not met before the final, maybe we could have seen a Real Madrid vs PSG match. But unfortunately, one of the teams will have to be eliminated from the semi-finals. There is a possibility of both teams being eliminated. But before that, both teams will have to win the quarter-finals.

With Alonso as Real Madrid's headcoach, and a former player of Madrid, and a club which he played for many years, he's going to have a great achievement and success with Madrid, considering his successful managerial record with Leverkusen.
I believe they have higher opportunity in this competition to lift this very trophy aside, PSG and Chelsea two current champions.
Real Madrid is very lucky to have a coach like Xavi Alonso come into their rescue, because they had a poor last season under Carlo Ancelotti, and I do believe Alonso will get Madrid right back on track with his tactical system of play.

Don't count Alonso's chickens before they hatch.

He has nothing achieved yet, Real Madrid's performance at the CWC is mediocre and they will have one of the strongest teams against them in Europan football, namely Barcelona.

The duels with Barcelona could cost them a lot. They could lose the Copa del Rey, could lose the league title and who knows where else they are going to play each other.

Alonso will find out that it is not as comfortable to work for Real Madrid as he is used to. The pressure is on a different level and heated discussions arise after every draw. That wasn't the same in Leverkusen.

We probably don't have much to complain about Xabi Alonso and there is no doubt that he is a talented coach. Last season, their journey with Carlos Ancelotti was not at all successful, on the contrary, they had to remain without a title. It would be even better news for Real Madrid and Xabi Alonso that they have the opportunity to win a trophy soon after Alonso's appointment. Maybe Real Madrid will not miss this opportunity and if they can start their journey with Real Madrid by winning the FIFA Club World Cup, nothing would be better for Alonso.

Know the settings of the club, Real Madrid is never going to stood so low and go for incompetent manager, they signed the very best performing manager. A man of actions and desperate for winnings. Xabi Alonso have magnificent records in Bayer Leverkusen but what happen? We've watch quite alot of things changing and it's been one of the lucrative aspect of the game. Xabi Alonso was the rare gem in Leverkusen, he brought the club out of the mud and watching him been the headcoach Real Madrid, watch him take down elite oppositions.

Do you think Xabi Alonso is not been given enough time? He has all the time in the world to make changes in Real Madrid and becoming one of the very best type of manager in the club. I trust Xabi Alonso to do a great job with his managerial role, he's effecting every feature and making a difference in the club.

Xabi Alonso has done extremely well as a coach with Bayern Leverkusen and I believe that is the selling point to which Real Madrid had to go for him including the fact that he was sometime their talisman. For the few games he has handled Madrid so far, it shows me that he has something in stock for the Madrid team, but then let's not start judging from the few games he has had with Madrid, we should rather give him sometime to prove his worth outside Bayern Leverkusen. For an elite club like Real Madrid with world class players, his job shouldn't be tedious as most players can make things easy for him, all he has to do is to come up with a strategy that he can manage this players in such a way that they can come back into winning ways in terms of trophy winning, until then Let's watch and see and not concluded yet.

Winning streak was made important, and only the best can come up with this record. Real Madrid headcoach, Xabi Alonso is a monster when it comes to handling elite teams, he knows his formidable strategy although he's yet to exert a tough dependable one with Los Blancos. He's making more crucial plans to exert and this wouldn't be some random average strategy but a top one. Real Madrid are not lucky for anything they've accomplish over the heading years for, they worked so hard for their money and wouldn't change for anything.

Juventus are out, do you watch the game? It was an important game for bothsides with thrieving energy, the Old Lady got eliminated by just one goal. This is good for them atleast they get to make it a tough time for Real Madrid. This is all about football, if the opposite team is losing, atleast by one goal and not like 4 upward because it shows clear signs of how unconstrained and unstable an elite team can be.

Madrid are not yet strong enough, because they won against Juventus isn't enough reason to consider them best after PSG. If it was Madrid against Bayern in quarter final of World Cup tournament, Bayern would be more seen as the favorite over Madrid.

In the tournament, Madrid are making progress but more work needs to be considered by the manager and players, Madrid performance is very average for the team, they won against Juventus by 1-0 but Manchester City defeated same team by 5-2, it's not summing up that Madrid are prepared already for next season.

You're right, indeed, they have successfully defeated Juventus in the Round of 16, but if you look at the situation, there are many shortcomings from Real Madrid, especially in the front line, their finishing level is very bad. Luckily they only face Juventus this time, but in the future, they will face Drotmund and especially if they qualify between PSG or Bayern Munich, which are both very strong in the front line, this will be a big blessing for them.

Real Madrid has Mbappe, Vini JR, and their front line is very strong, but the result is> goal effectiveness is very small, very weak.
This time we have to thank the new players at Real Madrid ii, with goals from Garcia and assists from Arnold that brought Real Madrid to victory and into the quarter finals.

Performing well, the new players have a good connection. Maybe Trent and Garcia were the heroes because of the narrow victory. But if you look at the conditions of today's match, then I see Juventus actually also performed very well. So I don't blame effectiveness, because every match will be different. But I see Xabi's process here looks very good. The development of the player's progress looks good. Xabi also gives confidence to the young players and that didn't happen under Ancelotti.

Real Madrid are La Liga last hope in the Club World Cup, having just managed to advance to the quarter-finals after managing to eliminate Juventus with great difficulty. Real Madrid next step will not be easy, they will face Dortmund in the quarter-finals, the next challenge is much more difficult if they succeed in advancing to the semifinals because they will face the winner between Bayern and PSG. Xabi Alonso will certainly devote all his team's strength to winning the trophy as a beautiful first step in managing Real Madrid, especially since they have just ended the season without a trophy.

[Gallar]

The situation is a bit strange because I think Barcelona is also interested in Williams playing for them, otherwise why would they buy him? But on the other hand, I understand Nico because he wants guarantees that he will get playing time, since what’s the point for a young player to move to a new team if he doesn’t have the opportunity to play. So in this situation, I am more on Nico’s side.

I agree with that, because basically Nico is a great player and he also always has a lot of playing minutes in his club, Bilbao. So if Barcelona wants to bring in Nico, of course they have to prioritize Nico to become a core player. Because if Nico is not made a core player by Barcelona, ​​what's the point of them signing him. So I also really understand what Nico wants, because basically he also doesn't want his name to sink because he is not given a lot of playing minutes in Barcelona. So in my personal opinion if Barcelona is not able to provide that guarantee, I don't think Nico will join Barcelona. Maybe he will look for another big team so that he is given a lot of playing minutes. And according to the news circulating, it is said that Bayern Munich is currently ready to bring in Nico if Barcelona is unable to fulfill all of Nico's wishes and fails to bring him in. I think that is pretty good news for Nico, because I am sure that in Munich Nico will definitely be made a core player. So with that, all decisions are currently in the hands of Barcelona.

Aside being a La liga team's last hope in tournament this is Real Madrid's only hope of winning a trophy before a new season starts so I don't expect them to joke with it. Well, I don't think Borussia Dortmund would be very tough for Madrid because their new coach had once dominated the Bundesliga he's encountered Dortmund on several occasions so he should know how to beat them with his current club that has more better squad and players than the previous one at Germany. Even though it won't be easy I think Real Madrid would beat Dortmund to progress to the next stage.

Club World Cup competition is an opportunity for Xabi Alonso to prove his quality as the new manager of Real Madrid, fortunately Real Madrid managed to pass the challenge when facing Juventus. It was a boring match with 1 goal scored by Gonzalo Garcia.

Next is Borussia Dortmund, I think the match that Real Madrid will face is as easy as when they faced Juventus, the serious problem for Real Madrid later is when in the semifinals, it's between PSG or Bayern Munich.

Garcia scored the goal that decided the outcome of the match. Alonso once again gave preference to a young player, and he did not deliver. Later he replaced Garcia with Mbappe, while Rodrygo spent the entire match on the bench again. By the way, I see that Militao and Carvajal were also available for a substitution, but Alonso is not in a hurry to use them yet. Apparently they are still not ready to play a full match, but I hope they will be by the start of the season. It would be great news for strengthening their defense.

Every match may end with a different result and it does not mean that Real Madrid had a little difficulty beating Juventus they will look weak when facing other teams. Sometimes the tension of the game is different so that the strategy does not work well and vice versa the opponents faced also sometimes use different strategies. Some new players brought in by Real Madrid have not fully adapted well but so far they have shown collectivity even though it has not been completely good

You can even see Manchester City losing against representatives of the Saudi Arabian League even though at first they were able to beat several teams quite convincingly. Do you think Manchester City can also be said to be weak?

We can't judge the strength of a team in a pre-season tournament even though it's a Club World Cup tournament and indeed what Real Madrid showed was the same as other teams, especially with the many changes that have occurred, maybe Xabi Alonso, their new coach, is still looking for a suitable formation and also a strategy to be implemented, especially in this tournament, Xabi Alonso also often rotates players so I think there is no assessment that can be given for Real Madrid now.

His performance in the world cup is not enough to decide whether or not his performance is good. The season will resume soon and the competitions will be heated next season then we will be able to evaluate his performance atleast half way into the season or at the end of the season.
It's Club World Cup, not World Cup. Half of a season is enough to decide the fate of Xabi Alonso at Real Madrid because if he fails to help Real Madrid challenge for the La Liga title, it will be difficult for him to do that at the end of a season when either Barcelona or Atlético Madrid might have accumulated a lot of points, which will make it difficult for him to catch up with either Barcelona or Atlético Madrid in the league table.

We can't judge too soon, we have to wait for the real championship to resume to see if the performances are real or imaginary
these events are a bit of a waste of time, they are like flames, lightning
the marathon, the long race is the championship with stubborn and strong opponents
