La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[KTChampions]

I also feel that Rashford needs to improve if he wants to secure a contract next season. If Rashford's performance is limited to this level, I don't think he deserves to be a regular in Barcelona's squad. The other players at Barcelona are certainly performing very well right now. Therefore, I believe the competition for a starting spot in Barcelona's starting lineup is incredibly fierce. Therefore, Rashford really needs to train harder. Rashford has only managed one assist in four games so far for Barcelona. So, with that in mind, I don't think Rashford is particularly outstanding at the moment, and Hansi Flick certainly won't give him a particularly good rating. However, the season is still long, so Rashford still has plenty of opportunities to improve for Barcelona.

Furthermore, Barcelona will face Newcastle in the Champions League in a few days, and I expect this match to be very exciting. So, in this match, I'll bet on Barcelona because I'm confident they'll perform well. Furthermore, I hope Rashford returns to the pitch and puts in a great performance.

I think Rashford has passed the point of no return and just needs to find an easier club/league. He is only in Barcelona because Barcelona has financial problems and they take everything that is cheap. As for the game with Newcastle, not everything is so clear-cut, bookmakers see this game as equal:

3.22 - 3.76 - 2.10

Yes, Barcelona are the favorites, but their chance to win is less than 50%, and overall I think these are brand odds and not team play (which is not yet clear at the start of the tournaments).

Raphinha, Fermin, and Lewandowski were the three players to score doubles against Valencia.
Barcelona beat Valencia 6-0.
Valencia had another poor start to the season. Their first attack came in the 71st minute. They also had a poor shot. Barcelona goalkeeper Garcia didn't bother.
Lewa came on as a substitute for Barcelona. Due to his age, he might come on later, but I'd say he's better than Ferran.
Valencia won't have an easy time this season either. They look poised to find their place in the lower leagues again.
Perhaps they'll be trying to avoid relegation again.

Playing against Barcelona is always difficult. Valencia may have played very poorly, but that's because Barcelona was so good. They played like champions, and scoring six goals is a huge accomplishment. They could have scored even more, but they only managed six.

I don't want to speak too soon about Valencia; we're still at the start of the league. If they can win 3-5 matches, they'll be out of the relegation zone. Having earned four points so far isn't bad at all. If their goal is to stay among the top 17 teams in the league this season, they can achieve it; it's not a difficult goal

Real Sociedad 0 Vs Real Madrid 2
Great performance from Real Madrid and the are 2 - 0 up despite been a man down before the second goal. For me, that was not a penalty because they were two defenders on the same path before foul happened besides it happened not too far away from the half way line of the pitch. It was a foul no doubt but not a straight red card. He was not the only defender, that was supposed to be a yellow card offense. But it is what it is, they just have to move on and continue playing with 10 men.

Just like I predicted that Real Madrid will want to win by any means. This is indeed a new Real Madrid side under Xabi’s administration plays better with unity than they did last season. It is incredible that even with 38% possession they still managed tp score two goals and get the desired result, good job Xabi!.

Earlier this season when Xabi Alonso was playing in the Pre-Season he talked about trying the Ancelotti strategy to see if it will work for him but immediately he realized that his team needed unity and team work he made sure he first or all achieved that and it's helping the team in their results now.
Real Madrid was red carded when they were a goal up they went ahead to score another goal and held it till the end of the match despite the pressures from the home team, it shows a different team spirit and the zeal from the players to win very game.

Even though Real Madrid didn't dominate the match, playing with 10 men, which forced them to play more defensively, was a safe option. They also had to play very cautiously to win the match at all costs, defending and capitalizing on counterattacks when they had good opportunities was their way of maintaining their lead and being able to score.
And when I saw Real Madrid playing with 10 men, their attack was sharper. And this win keeps Real Madrid firmly at the top of the table, and Xabi Alonso can keep Real Madrid winning in any situation.

Sevilla will be hosting the second match of season which they lost first one to Getafe 2 - 1. This is very unfortunate for Sevilla to loss their first home match to Getafe after dominated the entire game. Elche just got promoted to laliga this season, among the three of them, they are the only one still  standing for more challenges because they haven't loss any game they had played. Sevilla really have a lot to prove against this newly promoted team since they won their last game against Girona in an away game. Now they are hosting, let see whether they are back on their good track.

Sevilla are heavy favorites by Sportsbook today and they managed to secure the first half leading by 1 goal  but Elche didn't let it go that easily at least 3 shooting attempts were made, if this situation continues into the second half then I think Sevilla is really not safe yet Elche could have equalize the score or even won the match. What do you think is Sevilla's main obstacle after losing their previous 2 matches? even though we know that a few seasons ago Sevilla was one of the elite clubs in La Liga.

I can’t really point out what might be the main reason for their downfall lately but I noticed they have lost some good names they had in the team two seasons ago and are going through a process of rebuilding.  Against Elche they started the game on a good momentum but slipped up and fell behind later in the second half, they were so lucky to get a draw finally from a goal converted bu G. Fernandez if not they would have lost again at home.

I would consider Barcelona as the  favorite. Newcastle were in a very strong position last  season. But their performance this season has been erratic. Newcastle have won only one match  out of 4 matches in the Premier league.
Barcelona are also quite strong this  season with the help of Hansi Flick. But , if Barcelona want to get full points against Newcastle, then Barcelona's defenders will definitely have to play well. If the  defenders' performance is not stable, Barcelona's chances of winning will  decrease. Anyway, I am interested in betting on barcelona's victory in this match. Hansi Flick will definitely want to start the Champions league journey with a win.

For me, the only good thing about this is seeing if Peter Lim sells Valencia once and for all. In theory, he put it up for sale six months ago, but if he can't find a buyer, it means he hasn't set the right price. He'll want to recoup his initial investment with a profit, but after the disaster he's caused, he can't expect much. If Valencia suffers more disasters like this, he might decide to sell and cut his losses before they drop to the second division.

It was denied by Peter Lim's investment company when reports broke that he put the club up for sale. I think he has no interest in selling the club. He even appointed his son as president of the club after that, and they found a way to get the funds to continue the construction of the stadium. I don't think he is going to sell.

With the strict rules in La liga, I would have sold if I were the one. It's too difficult to do business in La Liga currently, and all the teams in the league are suffering. Valencia is a club that has a good academy and that is part of what has kept them alive for so long.

the difference in strength was too much, but even so 6 goals is something scary, they practically destroyed them
At this point, the goalkeeper was still missing the goal.
I don't know what Valencia's mood will be like but it will certainly be in pieces like broken vases.

Six goals without reply is quite a lot, but if Valencia realizes who they're facing and also remembers that their own strength is not comparable to their opponents, perhaps Valencia won't be so disappointed with the result because they'll have a better understanding of their own strengths. I see this as an opportunity for Barcelona to rack up goals in each match so that when they're level on points with another team, they can have an advantage in terms of goals scored against their opponents. So, this is truly a tactic that is quite appropriate for Barcelona, ​​and also for other teams if they have Barcelona's capabilities.

You are correct Newcastle form reduced since last season when they were kicked out of the champions league and with what I have seen so far I'm tempted to say that Newcastle united is not good in champions league no matter how inform they are because the form they were in last season was enough to take them far in the champions league. Newcastle have sold their key striker to Liverpool and this will really disturb them because I know the kind of impact that young man would create if he was still in Newcastle but regardless I see Barcelona as favorite that is I'm judging based on the current happenings and play but I won't be surprised if I should see a different result.

Six goal.... Everyone is taking about it and the Internet has almost erupted from the surprise performance by Barca. Fermi lopez is slowly approaching the spotlight which he needs to maintain a good position in the league. The 22 year old Spanish attacking midfielder stunned us all yesterday with 2 opening goals for the records.

For me, the only good thing about this is seeing if Peter Lim sells Valencia once and for all. In theory, he put it up for sale six months ago, but if he can't find a buyer, it means he hasn't set the right price.

He doesn't have a choice mate... Valencia is not even fit for the competition this time around and anymore attempts, just you've said, will only degrade the club! Watching the highlight was like watching one of Barcelona's training sessions.

As I've said before, Alonso knows what Madrid needs to reach the top of the table and maintain consistent performance. Looking back, we've seen a fairly perfect rotation of players, consistent performance, and consistent wins since the start of the season. After this, we'll see many surprises from Alonso, and in the Champions League, we'll see how Madrid performs thanks to the strategies implemented by this skilled coach.

I just saw it in the news few minutes ago that the former Barcelona player umtiti has retired from football at the age of 31, and just as we all know Samuel umtiti who is now former defender of Barcelona was plagued with a knee problem that forced him out of the football game for long periods. And I believe that this his knee problem was what led to his retirement, but that's by the way at least through out his football career he played very well no doubt and he has won the world cup with France in 2018, which a lot of great players are still struggling to win, while some have already retired without winning the world cup. Samuel umtiti has "300 plus appearances for club and country, plus 10 trophies won, including the World Cup with France".

Here are the words of Samuel umtiti.

I gave my ALL with passion and regret NOTHING.
I want to thank all the clubs, presidents, coaches and players I was able to stand with

[knowngunman]

Barcelona played an incredible match, honestly I didn't expect such a high-performance team to score so many goals, Real Madrid definitely needs to be very careful, because if they really want to compete with them this year they need to understand that they need to work harder and that teamwork is fundamental.

Incredible performance indeed from Barcelona yesterday. Although, I believe majority of us bet on Barcelona to win but we never saw that scoreline coming. Scoring whole six goals against Valencia was never expected considering that Yamal who happened to be the wonder kid wasn't playing. Raphinha, Lopez and Lewandowski all registered their names in the score sheet with a brace. It was an entertaining game from every aspect. I just hope they'll continue to maintain the energy throughout the rest of the season to grab the Laliga title again.

So, this is truly a tactic that is quite appropriate for Barcelona, ​​and also for other teams if they have Barcelona's capabilities.

Barcelona won their previous two matches against Valencia by a huge margin of 5 - 0 and 7- 1. And that is why Valencia played defensively in this match.

I saw that Valencia did not attack much in the first half. Valencia players did not take a single shot. In the second half, they were able to take only 2 shots. But they could not score any goals. On the other hand, in the second hal f, Barcelona players took a  total of 13 shots, 7 of which were on target. Barcelona boys were able to score 5 goals in the second half. barcelona  undoubtedly played great with the help of the excellent flick technique.

Anyway, I am worried about Barcelona's next  match. Barcelona is going to face Newcastle in the Champions League match. I am waiting to see how Barcelona performs against a strong defense.

[Emylion]

Yes, it was a very impressive match where Barcelona won by a big margin of 6 goals at home. Although in this match, Valencia team's attack was very low and they could not defend well, a weak team due to which Barcelona players attacked strongly and made a huge score. However, Real Madrid is still at the top of the points table, Barcelona is two points behind Madrid due to a draw in one match. However, this season will be more competitive if Real Madrid attacks more strongly in the next matches and can compete well against Barcelona. Barcelona and Real Madrid will fight a lot this season to become champions since both teams are currently in very good form and the players are also quite strong.

the difference in strength was too much, but even so 6 goals is something scary, they practically destroyed them

I don't know what Valencia's mood will be like but it will certainly be in pieces like broken vases.

At least with this winning people will know that FC Barcelona is still on their track of winning, because with their last draw against Rayo Vallecano lots of people where beginning to doubt if the can still compete for the Spanish LA Liga title , now it's proven that even without lamine yamal they still did it.

[Adbitco]

Just today Real Madrid players had to train an hour late just because La Liga officials showed up at their facility to carry out a surprise doping test on the players. Remember that Real Madrid has a Champions League match been Tuesday against Marseille and UEFA are not happy about it because the test will delay Real Madrid in preparation for their own competition. From the look of things, UEFA thought La Liga would have rescheduled their test on another day instead of doing it when their own competition was around the corner.

Anyway, I am worried about Barcelona's next  match. Barcelona is going to face Newcastle in the Champions League match. I am waiting to see how Barcelona performs against a strong defense.

Barcelona is a team that enjoys scoring a lot of goal so this particular match was just one of their game when everything got into their stride and they match the whole energy as they played very well and enjoy their time. This will send a huge Statement across to the teams of the La Liga and also Europe that they are serious for business as they ain't joking.

[SOKO-DEKE]

I was really expecting Barcelona to win the match, but honestly, I was not expecting Valencia to concede up to six goals in that match yesterday. Seriously, it was a very poor performance from Valencia.The funny part is that all five goals were scored in the second half, and it’s not even that they received a red card, so I can't say it was because of that.They’ve played three matches already, and Valencia has only been able to win one, while they’ve lost two.I wouldn’t like to conclude anything about their performance just yet, but with the way they played, I don’t think they’ll go far unless they improve.Let’s just see what happens in their next few matches  maybe there will be a change. But based on what they played against Barcelona, it shows they are in poor form.

[GigaBit]

Incredible performance indeed from Barcelona yesterday. Although, I believe majority of us bet on Barcelona to win but we never saw that scoreline coming. Scoring whole six goals against Valencia was never expected considering that Yamal who happened to be the wonder kid wasn't playing. Raphinha, Lopez and Lewandowski all registered their names in the score sheet with a brace. It was an entertaining game from every aspect.

Barcelona did not just win by scoring 6 goals in the last match, but also sent messages to the team. The most important message is that in the absence of Yamal, the team scored 6 goals against Valencia. This shows how strong the team has become. Everyone is playing responsibly without relying on anyone. Even if one person is missing, Lewandowski, Raphinha and Lopez can take responsibility for the team without breaking down mentally.

[Danica22]

This will send a huge Statement across to the teams of the La Liga and also Europe that they are serious for business as they ain't joking.

Looking at Barcelona's overall gameplay in the first half, I expected Barcelona to win the match 2-0 or 3-1. Because at the end of the first half, Barcelona was only leading by a narrow margin of 1-0. But Barcelona's attacks were quite sharp from the beginning of the second half. Hansi Flick identified Valencia's weaknesses very well. Barcelona scored 3 goals in the first 20 minutes of the second half. Lopez, raphinha and Lewandowski each scored two goals. If Yamal had been present in this match, we would probably have seen goals from Yamal as well.
