La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Phoenix Anka]

El Clasico will be a defining moment for both teams this season, although there's no guarantee who will win La Liga.
We hope there will be a much more balanced competition for both teams, making this rivalry something interesting to watch.

In last season's classics, Real Madrid didn't play, Madrid threw up, that's what they did, because their play was bad from start to finish, Ancelotti didn't know how to replant the team, they didn't have a good defense, I understand that, the players were mostly injured, but it's Madrid, they couldn't lose so badly, a general humiliation and twice, that's something no club should tolerate, that's why Ancelotti left. The games should be much more balanced now, where Madrid should dominate.

Ancelotti faced his biggest problem last year in the matches they played against Barcelona. He had such a poor performance against Barcelona that Real Madrid lost every match last year. Barcelona scored four goals, Barcelona scored five. Real Madrid looked like a mediocre team last year. This year, everyone expects success from Xabi Alonso, especially in these matches. Therefore, these matches will be a significant stepping stone for Xabi's career.

Villarreal will beat Atletico Madrid no matter how prepare they prepared in this la Liga league competition to meet Villarreal next game, because Villarreal have beaten their opponents to maintain solid position they are now. I'm not saying Atletico Madrid is a weak clud, but with what Villarreal is playing from their first game and second game make me to believe they will win their next game with 0:2 to secure victory from Atletico Madrid.
...

Given Atletico Madrid's poor form, I'm sure they'll be beaten by Villarreal at home-- or at least a draw, as Villarreal's form at the start of the season has been quite good, with two wins and one draw. Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, are struggling and haven't won a single game, even being held to a draw by Elche. With such poor form, many expect Atletico Madrid to be unable to secure a win against Villarreal, even if they're playing at home.

However, if Atletico Madrid corrects their mistakes and begins to recover after the international break, it's undeniable that they can beat Villarreal at home. During the international break, the coach will be working hard to evaluate the team's mistakes and try to correct them. Villarreal may be in top form, but that doesn't mean they can't make mistakes.
So, we can't judge a team based solely on a few mistakes. It's only the start of the season, so there's plenty of time to improve and get back to winning ways.

The games should be much more balanced now, where Madrid should dominate.

You're right that in the previous season, the rivalry between Barcelona and Real Madrid was truly unbalanced, with Barcelona dominating. The proof is that in the first match of the previous season, Barcelona managed to slaughter Real Madrid with a very convincing score of 4-0, then in the second match, Real Madrid was also defeated by Barcelona with a score of 4-3. So, if you look at it, it's clear that Barcelona in the previous season was far superior to Barcelona. Because not only in La Liga, Barcelona was able to beat Real Madrid. But in domestic competitions, Real Madrid always lost to Barcelona in the previous season.

So with that, it's clear that in the previous season, Real Madrid's matches against Barcelona seemed less exciting, because Barcelona was always superior. But this season, there may be a slight change that might make Barcelona not easy to beat Real Madrid. Because this season, Real Madrid comes with several very good new players and also a coach who can be said to be quite good and understands the playing style that suits Real Madrid's players. So, with that in mind, I think this season's El Clasico will be even more exciting. However, I hope Real Madrid doesn't suffer the same injury woes as last season. If they do, I think they'll be thrashed by Barcelona again.

[kriminall]

I don't think Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​or Atletico Madrid will drop any points this week. All three teams will win their matches. While Atletico Madrid's match was a bit tough, I think they'll ultimately get the three points because they desperately need them. They played two very poor league matches. This is a chance to forget that.

[Webetcoins]

Diego Simeone has only picked up two points in three matches. This year, we're watching what may be the worst Atletico Madrid of recent years. Judging by their results in three matches, this match is risky. They drew with Elche and Alaves and lost to Espanyol. Villarreal is a stronger team on paper than these two. Therefore, this match will be very difficult, but I'm sure the manager, aware of this, will have prepared his players thoroughly.

Diego Simeone is surely needed to be work on solid strategy his defensive system is not working as they held at home by Elche and their defeat against Espanyol in first game clearly indicating changes are essential otherwise this season is going to be terrible for them. 3 Matches 2 points now after break they are going to host Villarreal and then visiting Anfield is surely not easy task for them if they are not able to have positive results this is going to hurt them badly in long run.

Villarreal attack currently is one of the best in La Liga they already score 8 goals in three games while their defense is also balanced just one goal conceded mean it's going to be the toughest challenge for Atlético Madrid to survive in this game and have something positive.

Villarreal is still unbeaten in the league. On the other hand, we all know how poorly Atlético Madrid has started the season. We know that every match in Spain is prone to surprise results. Even if it's Real Madrid or Barcelona, ​​these results can still happen. That's why this match seems difficult to predict. It seems like a match with a high probability of a draw.

Anthony has never been a bad player, but I guess he could not fit into the Manchester United team or his price tag really affected his form. When he went to Betis he really played better and also improved the team and now that he has finally made the move permanent, I believe we will see a better Anthony and that will also improve Betis. Hopefully they can secure a Champions League spot, because they have started the league well.

Playing outside the Premier League is very different compared to other leagues. Most players find it difficult to perform in Premier League as the most difficult league i must say, even Raphina didn't perform as good when he was in PL playing for Leeds.

Premier League is no ground for average footballer, you need to be really good with toughness, while La Liga are where average players goes and they begin to perform much better. Real Betis signing Anthony was a good move, he fits their play and definitely will contribute a lot for them this season.

Yeah playing in the premier league might need a bit of physicality and toughness but you can’t say it’s no ground for average players (it’s even made up of more average players) it just has to do with the players adaptability and strength. You can’t say Raphinha wasn’t good at the EPL, he was playing for a small team and carrying the team and you say he wasn’t that good, how good do you want him to be.
There are a lot of players who didn’t do well in La Liga but they became big stars in the EPL(the likes of Odegaard, Alexis Sanchez, T. Partey, A. Isak etc)  and there are those who did well in EPL but couldn’t replicate that form in LaLiga (like Coutinho, Hazard, etc).

This is going to be a fascinating encounter between these two teams because by looking at their head too head record in the past five games, atletico madrid has won two out of five, while Villarreal did not win any, then they drew three times, so as it is now, atletico madrid has the upper hand especially now that they will be playing at home, just that their bad form presently makes them unreliable, so if I will be betting on this game, I will be going with the option of XorGG because their is a higher probability that this game might earn in a draw or both teams to score, but avoid staking on it entirely is better to me because this game seems like a difficult one to predict.

[Gallar]

I don't think Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​or Atletico Madrid will drop any points this week. All three teams will win their matches. While Atletico Madrid's match was a bit tough, I think they'll ultimately get the three points because they desperately need them. They played two very poor league matches. This is a chance to forget that.

I agree that Barcelona and Real Madrid can certainly take home all three points in their upcoming matches. Both Barcelona and Real Madrid will face less formidable teams. Barcelona will face Valencia, while Real Madrid will face Sociedad. Therefore, Barcelona and Real Madrid have a very good chance of winning easily in their upcoming matches. Regarding Atletico Madrid, I personally highly doubt they can win. The teams they will face are quite strong and have a very good record throughout the season. Meanwhile, as we know, Atletico Madrid haven't managed to win a single match this season. Therefore, I personally have serious doubts about Atletico Madrid's chances in their upcoming matches.

However, if they can improve their performance, I believe Atletico Madrid's chances of winning will be slightly greater. So, with that in mind, I don't think we can make a good prediction until we see Atletico Madrid's performance in their upcoming match against Villarreal. But it's true that if Atletico Madrid can't take home all three points in their upcoming match, I think they'll struggle to compete at the top of the La Liga table. Because, considering the points difference between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona and Real Madrid, the gap will definitely be very large.

It's truly going to be an fascinating battle between these two teams but Atletico Madrid may have the physical ability to win this match. The Madrid club will be the favourites in this new season's La Liga match between Villarreal and Atletico Madrid as their player buying power proves that they are more composed. Moreover it is largely correct that Villarreal were very aggressive against Girona football team but when they later faced Celta Vigo in the ongoing new Spanish league, they shared the points in that match. To my knowledge Atletico Madrid players need to be made loyal in this match,Because at the moment, Villarreal Football Club is on an undefeated streak and they are really trying to outdo the heavyweight clubs but the chances of this match are still more in the hands of Atletico Madrid.

[bitgolden]

Will Madrid drop points against Real Sociedad? No, that won’t happen. We can see that Real Sociedad’s recent performances have been very poor, they were defeated by a team that was just promoted to La Liga. It’s true that Madrid might consider rotating players to prepare for their first UCL match, but their squad is already very complete and not lacking in quality players. So without hesitation, I would bet on a Madrid win at pretty decent odds of @1.66.

Real Madrid is having impressive start with 3 wins they conceded one goal their squad depth is balanced, and they are capable of having good result against Real Sociedad at Reale Arena before having another challenge against Marseille at Bernabéu.

Having six games in just 3 weeks surely going to have burden on players but Xabi Alonso is well aware about challenges which are coming ahead with keeping all players on level without injuries surely never been easy because things have never been easily manageable while teams are having too many games in less time. Real Sociedad is having problematic start with attack is long time issue, but now they are conceding enough goals which can keep them in danger zone their season is looking not easy this time.

Villarreal will definitely play this season like the last one, aiming for a Champions League spot, and I can't wait to see how they perform against Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atlético, and even Bilbao, who also had a great start. Villarreal had a good transfer window in terms of both buying and selling, so let's see how everything lines up in the next seven fixtures before the next international break. Their first Champions League game will be away against Tottenham — that's a must-watch match 

Villareal started very well, 2 wins and 1 draw a perfect way to start the season. I'm only worried that so far on how good other teams will perform aside from the big 3 teams, it is very difficult for them to succeed in winning the La Liga, their best form always ends in completing a Champions League position. La Lia champions mostly goes to Real Madrid or Barcelona, a few times Atletico Madrid breaks through, but other teams are just there dragging the fourth and fifth place.

Villarreal against Tottenham, it's a to match watch because the Premier League side are going to be a big headache for them, also seeing that Villarreal are away in the match makes it x2 harder to win against them.

In terms of competing with Real and Barça, I think Villarreal’s chances are reduced to 0%. Their best possible position is 3rd — their squad depth is questionable, and competing on multiple fronts is tricky for most teams.

That said, I do believe Villarreal will be among the best 24 teams to qualify for the Champions League playoffs. And from that perspective, I still don’t see how they can keep up with Real and Barça over the course of the season.

El Clasico will be a defining moment for both teams this season, although there's no guarantee who will win La Liga.
We hope there will be a much more balanced competition for both teams, making this rivalry something interesting to watch.

In last season's classics, Real Madrid didn't play, Madrid threw up, that's what they did, because their play was bad from start to finish, Ancelotti didn't know how to replant the team, they didn't have a good defense, I understand that, the players were mostly injured, but it's Madrid, they couldn't lose so badly, a general humiliation and twice, that's something no club should tolerate, that's why Ancelotti left. The games should be much more balanced now, where Madrid should dominate.

In recent seasons, El Clasico has felt less intense, as it's been a long time since both teams have been at their peak during the same period, or even in the same season. For example, last season, when Barcelona was at its peak, Real Madrid's performance unfortunately declined. And vice versa, going back further, Madrid was at its peak while Barcelona was in a slump.

Barcelona is currently in top form. They haven't made many changes for this season, but they're still performing very well, and so is Real Madrid, who are starting to improve under Xabi Alonso. Therefore, I expect this derby to be an even more intense contest.

[Inwestour]

Ancelotti faced his biggest problem last year in the matches they played against Barcelona. He had such a poor performance against Barcelona that Real Madrid lost every match last year. Barcelona scored four goals, Barcelona scored five. Real Madrid looked like a mediocre team last year. This year, everyone expects success from Xabi Alonso, especially in these matches. Therefore, these matches will be a significant stepping stone for Xabi's career.

I think that one of the main reasons for Ancelotti’s dismissal was that they lost all the matches in Barcelona last season. This season, Alonso is expected to make Real better, but I will also say that it’s clear Barcelona are not as strong in attack this season, and I still can’t understand why. Maybe it’s just the beginning of the season and things will change later, but if it continues like this, then Ancelotti will really have an easier time in the matches against Barcelona.

[Velvet78]

Real Madrid have an easy game ahead against Real Sociedad away. I don't expect any surprises. 1.66 odds have been given for their win and it is a great opportunity in my opinion.  

Because Real Sociedad are still horrible. 0 wins after leaving 3 games behind. Only in the Valencia game they weren't the favoured side.

Real Madrid have a big superiority over them in the La Liga in the recent years. That should continue like this.

[CryptoYar]

[...]

Yeah their strong start and balanced team are great but big test will be six games they have to play in just three weeks. Upcoming match against Real Sociedad is good chance for them to keep winning because Sociedad is struggling but real challenge for team and manager is to play so many games without key players getting hurt. It will be true test of their team depth and discipline.

It's true that last season, Real Madrid was truly unfortunate because they consistently lost against Barcelona. However, injuries were certainly a contributing factor. It certainly seemed like Real Madrid's performance was declining, which was sometimes difficult to understand. However, this season, Real Madrid has changed coaches, and many are hoping that Xabi Alonso can improve Real Madrid's performance.

Personally, I can't wait to see El Clásico, as it promises to be even more exciting this season. We'll see what happens. It's hard to predict who will win, but I hope El Clásico will be even more exciting this season. We'll see if Xabi succeeds in leading Real Madrid to even greater good or not.

However, this season, Real Madrid has changed coaches, and many are hoping that Xabi Alonso can improve Real Madrid's performance.

Unfortunate, sorry but could you explain how?

To be honest, I did not think to complete loses in one season to Barcelona in all direct matches from Real Madrid, but by actually losing all matches, Real Madrid shown that none of those defeats are unlucky. They were truly weaker than Barcelona in the last seasons and those defeats were well deserved.

Personally, I can't wait to see El Clásico, as it promises to be even more exciting this season. We'll see what happens. It's hard to predict who will win, but I hope El Clásico will be even more exciting this season. We'll see if Xabi succeeds in leading Real Madrid to even greater good or not.

Carlo Ancelotti left, Xabi Alonso came and made some improvements which can be good foundation for Real Madrid gaining better results in matches with Barcelona in this season. They don't want to lose more matches to this traditional competitor and they actually work hard to beat Barcelona.

While Atletico Madrid's match was a bit tough, I think they'll ultimately get the three points because they desperately need them. They played two very poor league matches. This is a chance to forget that.

The most important thing is that none of them underestimate their opponents, as it's not uncommon for underestimated opponents to spring a surprise in any match. So, the three teams you mentioned simply need to improve their performances to win this weekend, especially Atletico Madrid, who haven't won in their first three games of the season. So, Atletico Madrid really needs to win at home to avoid being criticized by their own fans for facing an opponent that isn't strong enough this season.

[Marvell1]

To be honest, I did not think to complete loses in one season to Barcelona in all direct matches from Real Madrid, but by actually losing all matches, Real Madrid shown that none of those defeats are unlucky. They were truly weaker than Barcelona in the last seasons and those defeats were well deserved.

Last season, we saw  Real madrid lose all four of their matches against Barcelona. It's not that Madrid were unlucky , but that  they lost. Barcelona dominated and won every match. And both  Madrid's attack and defense were quite weak against barcelona.

The same thing is unlikely to  happen again this season. Madrid have tried their best to strengthen their defense. At the same time , Madrid's overall performance is also quite strong. We have seen Real Madrid win all  three matches this season. They have been able to perform well in every match. So, it is expected that this season's El Ccasico will be even more competitive.
