La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Stablexcoin]

Rodrygo has the chance to leave, Liverpool are still on the line and might likely bring him in even though £70m~£100M is a lot of money but he’s a good player just I also don’t see why so high imo although he has a club who has interest.. if he doesn’t meet up then he would probably spend most of his season on bench because I don’t think Xabi has a plan for him at all..

You don't expect to buy a player from Real Madrid at a cheap price, buying Rodrygo for that amount is worth it for me, lately i wow for prices on average players i see in the window, we haven't really seen the full potential of Rodrygo, only with the moments he played for Real Madrid, i believe he has the potentials of starting for Liverpool.

Premier League isn't as friendly as the La Liga, Rodrygo should know too well before joining because not all players can dominate from La Liga down to Premier League, Antony was doing wonders at Real Betis after he was loaned to them, he should know that Premier League is difficult to play.

Second is that Rodrygo is a level of player that needs to play every game, he is not a bench level player, so to see him at the bench, means Rodrygo will hate that as well.

Xabi has a system that gives every player a chance. It might seem like he's not in his plans right now, but by the middle of the season, the Brazilian might be his most important player. Therefore, it wouldn't be right to make decisions or discuss his future now. If he wants to let him go, he can; if he doesn't, he won't. A player who can play for Real Madrid can easily play for any team in the world. I think this is beyond debate.

The adventure begins in the Spanish league. The new season will kick off in Spain with matches next week. Real Madrid will play their match in a few days, with Barcelona playing before them. Spain's teams, which have always been intriguing, have made some good signings this year. The Spanish league will continue to be a league everyone is watching and one full of surprises. The first match, which kicks off next week, will be between Girona and Rayo. I don't have a favorite for this match; first matches are always full of surprises. For some reason, it seems like a draw to me.

I don't actually expect many surprises in the Spanish league this year. We'll be watching a three-way championship race between Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atletico Madrid. I don't see the possibility of a team like Girona pulling off another surprise. Furthermore, I don't think any other team could compete with such quality. Atletico Madrid will continue to compete as the third-place team in this league. They will be the team closing in on Real Madrid and Barcelona for the top spot.

Real Madrid now has Rudiger, Militao, Trent, Huijsen, Carreras, Asensio. They obviously have no problem in their defense. Unlike what Ancelotti suffered last season I don't think Alonso will be using midfielder like Valverde to complete the defense. I just believe that this present Real Madrid would have been a bigger force in the hands of Carlo Ancelotti than Alonso but let's wait and see.
If Real Madrid want to compete against Barcelona in La Liga next season they need their high salary earners player to focus on the field and stop basking in their UEFA champions league glory.

Yes, they shouldn't have any serious problems in the back line anymore. The defenders are strong, and they're highly skilled and experienced. It just depends on how Xabi can optimize their abilities with a strategy and lineup that suits his tactics. And also how the new players can adapt more solidly within the club, to maintain the quality of the defense and other lines.

Oh, the latest news from Barcelona is that the Barcelona board has finally stripped ter Stegen of the captain's armband. This is a drastic decision. This was the result of his stance of not submitting his medical report. And the club believes that this attitude does not reflect leadership.

I think Alonso will change the system, because I don't see him finally deciding, at the Club World Cup he played with three forwards, Vini, Garcia and Bellingham, then Mbappe was injured and Rodrigo spent almost the entire tournament on the bench. Now Bellingham will be absent for some time after surgery, but he will still have enough attacking players to play even with three forwards. If with two then it is even easier, the most important thing now is the midfield.

He surely is going to change the system because that is the only way he can Introduce his own system to the team for then to achieve the kind of results he wants of them to achieve by the season.  At this time he is going to be using more of rotational tactics to enable him get his players at their peak at almost all time throughout the season pending when the likes of Bellingham will be back to joining the team and the new players who just joined the team and are trying to fit in with the orientation of xabi.

Xabi knows exactly what a player can do because he was a magnificent player himself in the past. He played for Real Madrid and knows the weight of Real Madrid. I was hoping he would bring the best players to Real Madrid, where he currently leads the team, and he's made some truly excellent signings. Alonso is currently trying to establish balance within the team. If he doesn't, everyone will want to act according to their own whims, and that would mean chaos for the team.

Yes Alonso was fantastic player for club himself he truly understands what team and its players need. His time as player there gives him unique insight into high expectations and pressure of club.  Alonso leadership is very good and his smart player signings and his focus on creating balanced team. And we know this balance is very important because without it team would become disorganized and players would only think about themselves. At the end we can say Alonso experience as player and his ability to create team harmony are main reasons for his success at Real Madrid.

Should more surprises occur to make the league much more competitive, but considering the number of teams and the strength of the team, perhaps only these three have a chance to compete for the title.
Girona has experienced such a dramatic decline in performance as in previous seasons that it's highly unlikely that they'll be able to compete for the title.
Atletico Madrid has a chance to compete with Real Madrid and Barcelona, although they may struggle to perform consistently until the end of the season, but this team has consistently finished in the top three to five in recent seasons, it's just that they have difficulty winning the title.

Rodrygo has emphasized if he wants to stay much longer in Madrid. He has not given up to his position, and wanna fight it back. He also ruled out chance to join other club. That's the reason Liverpool shifted to the Bradley Barcola as his alternative. In conclusion, Rodrygo to Liverpool won't happen.

There may be a tempting offer from any team to get a top player like Rodrygo but he is not as great as the price is being quoted but I believe Real Madrid might want to keep him for a longer period of time. Xabi Alonso might want to build his dream team with the previous players and improve the defence even more. If Rodrygo really wants to leave Real then they might have to come up with a different plan.

If Liverpool are really interested in Rodrygo, then Rodrygo should leave Real Madrid now. Liverpool is definitely a top club. Joining Liverpool would definitely be good for Rodrygo's career. We understand that Xabi Alonso is not interested in Rodrygo. So Rodrygo will have to be on the bench for most of the season. And as a result, Rodrygo's performance is likely to deteriorate in the future.

However, I doubt whether Liverpool will be interested in spending a huge amount like 100 million for Rodrygo. Rodrygo is talented, but he does not have the ability to score many goals yet. He has only scored 10 goals in his last season. He has only scored 32 goals in 172 games with Madrid. Is it worth spending 100 million for such a player?

[Gallar]

I see a lot of people talking about Real Madrid and Barcelona here in this thread which i believe is ok because they are the two msot biggest club in Spain plus they are always the contenders for the win, but about the third one the Atletico Madrid, it can be this his year? I mean for the first time in a few years they are not in consideration after falling bad last year.

The last time Atletico Madrid gets the title on season 2020/2021 and since that they can finish at top 4 which i think this is good achievement and stable but to says they're as the contender of Real Madrid or Barcelona i think it's quite hard but the new season hasn't beginning yet so we still don't know whether Atletico Madrid can broke the domination of those teams or not but this summer Atletico Madrid movement to buy new players is very active and their expensive recruitment is Álex Baena from Villarreal with 42 million price tag

Yes, I think Atletico Madrid's must be taken into account to be called a team that can compete for the Laliga trophy. Because although it is true that in most seasons Atletico Madrid always finishes below Real Madrid and Barcelona. But in the world of soccer nothing is really certain before the season is actually running. Especially at this time Atletico Madrid seems very serious to face the upcoming season. Because as we know Atletico Madrid has currently brought in 9 new players.

I think this will be very good ammunition for Atletico Madrid. Because if you look at the number of players recruited by Atletico Madrid, I can conclude that they are improving all lines at this time. Therefore, if Atletico Madrid can make the plan run smoothly, I am sure that they will appear quite stunning next season. Because the players recruited by Atletico Madrid at this time, it seems that it will indeed be suitable to fill any gaps in Atletico Madrid's.

We have seen that Xabi Alonso gave Garcia a chance in the FIFA Club World Cup. And he performed quite well. Arda Guller is also capable of performing well. Rodrygo's style of play is probably not to Xabi's liking. That is why Alonso did not give Rodrygo enough chances in the Club World Cup matches either.

If Rodrygo is in Madrid, he is most likely to be on the bench. If Vini or Mbappe face long-term injuries, then maybe Rodrygo will get a chance in the Madrid squad. Rodrygo is probably not interested in leaving Madrid. We will see Rodrygo on the bench next season.

Atletico Madrid will continue to compete as the third-place team in this league. They will be the team closing in on Real Madrid and Barcelona for the top spot.

It's hard to believe that La Liga will begin soon, and Girona will certainly be kicking off their first match. We'll see if they can beat Rayo Vallecano. Inigo Perez and Michel will undoubtedly be in a tight battle to develop strategies for that match. Many people will be watching the first La Liga match. Of course, we don't know if Girona will pull off a surprise like last season, 2023-2024, and it's certainly possible that Girona will surprise us next season.

However, I share your sentiments, as I'm confident that Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Atletico Madrid will be in a tight battle until the end of the season. It's also possible that a team will surprise us, such as Bilbao, who suddenly performed well, for example, finishing third in La Liga at the end of the season. However, if we look at the squads of all the teams, the strongest are currently Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Atletico madrid. Yes, of course, we'll see later because what is certain is that the match will be very exciting and yes, Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Atletico Madrid will definitely fight for the trophy in the coming season. But of course, next season, Girona must be very careful because of course if Girona loses a lot, of course, there is a potential for Girona to be relegated and I hope Michel must be able to bring Girona to be better than last season.

Yes, of course, 99% of gamblers would prefer to bet on Barcelona, which has a greater chance of winning.
Barca has long been the most successful club, having won over 45 Joan Gamper trophies, making it the most successful club in the competition.
Without a doubt, I would also bet on Barca, but in reality, a win doesn't necessarily mean a boost in mentality. Barcelona's mentality is already very good, and this competition is simply considered ordinary.
Without any trophies before the season starts, we are confident that Barcelona will win another La Liga title. 😁

Are you sure about that? The odds there are probably around 1.05-1.1 and there is no point in risking a bet for the sake of 5-10% profit. Barcelona dominates (if you can say that about this pseudo tournament) here, but for example last year Monaco won 3-0 against Barcelona   Como are a dark horse and they seem weaker than last year's Monaco but there is still a real risk that they will win.

I just saw the bookmaker's odds of around 1.23, which is better than 1.05-1.1, and I've seen gamblers bet big on small odds for a sure win, even though they were wrong.😁
I think anything can happen, but there are many options we can choose from, such as both teams scoring or an Asian total.
Como may be considered an dark horse, but it will take a strong team to beat a Barcelona squad that is currently very consistent.😋

It is better to bet $15 on a Barcelona win than $15 on a Como win😋

Xabi Alonso still has a lot of time to work with his players, improve them as well as train them with tactics and choose best tactics for Real Madrid squad. A season is long and Real Madrid don't need to be a perfect team at a season start to win La Liga. They surely must get good and acceptable results in early matches in order to not fall too far behind Barcelona in the league table rank, then they can buy time for improvements gradually.

Expectations may be different, as coaching a big team like Real Madrid requires constant preparation for any situation, as both management and fans demand more from a coach. If Xabi Alonso succeeds, he will be praised, but if he fails, he will face a lot of pressure and criticism. To gauge whether this team has improved, we will have to wait until La Liga starts, and therein lies the major challenge Xabi Alonso will face. We'll see how Xabi Alonso performs in his first season and see if he can deliver better results next season.

Yes, Rodrygo isn't in Xabi Alonso's plans. So, if he chooses to stay at Real Madrid, he'll undoubtedly be on the bench for the entire season. He'll likely only play occasionally, with limited minutes. It would be a shame for a player with such potential to spend the season on the bench, letting a season pass without much opportunity. So, it would be better for him to choose a team interested in signing him. Liverpool, in this case, would definitely need a player like Rodrygo. Moreover, Liverpool recently released Luis Diaz to Bayern Munich. So, there's a suitable position for Rodrygo.

And from the circulating news, it seems that if Liverpool were to make an offer for the player, Rodrygo himself would be ready to accept it if Real Madrid also let him go. Although there were rumors that the player wanted to stay, if Liverpool came in with a good offer, I'm sure he would choose to leave.

This is completely nothing about Xabi Alonso and Rodrygo. This is something that has to do with the club president perez and the Brazilian. I feel like low key they must have been a fallout between them. The recent incomings mostly that young lad from Rivers plate says it all. These players would want game time and with the FIFA World Cup Competition next year,  nobody wants to sit on the bench. Rodrygo's agent should get him a club.

In my opinion, Rodrygo is a player who could fit into Real Madrid's planning. He's a very important player for Real Madrid and has the quality to play for them. I don't think it would make sense for him to go to another team; it might be better if he fights for a year to convince the Spanish manager. We know how long Luka Modric's time at the club has been. Rodrygo could also deliver a similar performance.
