La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[GiftedMAN]

No matter how good a team you are, if you don't have star players in the pitch, you're still lacking. Without Yamal and Raphinha, Barca couldn't win. If Lewandowski had scored the penalty, they might have turned the game around, but when he missed the penalty, they couldn't catch up to Sevilla. Sevilla had not really a good season but they played this well for the first time and won. Barca quickly relinquished the lead to Real. Well, the season is long and these losses can be made up for.

The only difference between what happened in this game and that of Atletico Madrid Vs Real Madrid is that all the Real Madrid players was present to witness the defeat while Yamal and Raphinha wasn't present in the game and Sevilla trashed Barcelona just like Atletico Madrid trashed Real Madrid. It's now obvious without star players a good team can not function well it happened to Barcelona today so it's a big lesson to the other teams. Lewandowski missing a great chance in the penalty should have saved the team from avoiding the defeat but he wasn't able to score and Sevilla scored more two goals to make it 4:1.

If Lewandowski had scored that goal, things might have changed completely, but when he missed the penalty, the entire system fell apart. A demoralized Barcelona panicked, pushing for an equalizer in the final minutes, only to concede two more goals. A poor result for the championship. Everyone was surprised by this result, as we're used to Barcelona not dropping points in such matches.

[Emjay24]

I really felt for Barca watching their match. Today was not their day at all. Servilla came prepared to rub mud on their faces. I could see the low morale when Lewandowski missed the penalty. This defeat has seen real Madrid remain at the top of the league table. The match was tough and Barca gave a fight but they were always in the receiving end of the goals and at last the difference was up to 3. It was very shameful they lost by that margin. This shows us that at times in action even the favorites can turn out being the underdogs, Kinda loved what Servilla did today,  at least Flick saw where he needed serious improvements readily.

[salad daging]

Barcelona today match quite disappointing for all of us. I don't know why Barca lost the momentum and gave Sevilla for big lead, although at the beginning everyone was picking up Barcelona for the victory, but unfortunately they failed to win the match. It was quite surprising for all of us that the top dominator of the league competition had conceded 4 goals.....

Besides that right now, Barcelona has stepped down form the top spot and Real Madrid has come up to the top spot. But honestly still, we can't pick up Real Madrid as the league winner because there is still a lot of fun to come (El Clasico). It time for Barca to smash them down one more time.

It was very disappointing to choose Barcelona to win in a single bet.

I didn't expect that the absence of Yamal and Rapinha would make their line less productive and difficult to score goals, added to their poor defense against Sevilla.

No one could have expected that, right? That's how the game went.
Two Spanish giants suffered crushing defeats.
Real Madrid by Atletico
Barcelona by Sevilla.

I've never seen a player as stupid and useless as Araujo. I don't understand how this guy plays for Barcelona, ​​let alone how he's even captained the team.
The penalty he gave away was absolutely stupid. It was both incredibly harsh and absurd.
Hansi Flick substituted Garcia for Araujo at the start of the second half.
I've never seen Barcelona play so poorly in my life. They nearly lost 5-0 at halftime.
Barcelona's first dangerous and organized attack came in the 42nd minute. Rashford met a cross and fired the ball over.
Barcelona were more organized in the second half. With the score at 2-1, Lewandowski missed the penalty.
If that penalty had gone in, Barcelona could have taken a point from Sevilla. They conceded two more goals in the final minutes and lost the match 4-1.
Barcelona were absent today due to injuries to Raphinha and Yamal. Their absence was deeply felt.

[len01]

I actually wonder if this is Barcelona's game What I mean is, even though we know that winning and losing are inevitable in a match, their performance certainly did not meet my expectations from the start. Even though some of their players were injured, they should have been able to show something from the game they played.

-snip

With this result, Madrid is back at the top of the standings, and I’m happy about that because Barcelona’s loss brings its own blessings

I think you’re a Madrid fan, since you seem pretty happy seeing Barcelona lose. But I’m also glad to see Madrid back at the top of the table.

Anyway, when key players are injured, it’s only natural for a team’s performance to dip. Even top tier team with tons of experience aren’t immune to that. Madrid dealt with the same issue last season, after all. So it seems we all know the problem of Barcelona defeat and this is a tough blow to Flick.

[EFS]

Lewandowski's missed penalty wasn't the only turning point of the match. Barca had good chances but couldn't take them. Bardghji took a very weak shot in a one-on-one situation. Sometimes it happens like that. No matter what you do, things don't go your way. Flick said the international break will be good for the players, as they'll be in a different environment. I think that's very true.
Barca have given up the lead for now, but after the break they'll start playing well and winning again and will reclaim the top spot when Real make their first mistake.

[Felicity_Tide]

Lewandowski's missed penalty wasn't the only turning point of the match.

I was forced to watch the highlights because it's quite surprising to see Barcelona losing with such a goal difference to Sevilla. From what I noticed, it's obvious that flick's highline football has been figured out already. All the three open play goals that were scored by Sevilla, all came from a decent onside approach, which was from the wings. Remember that barce's highline usually puts their opponent's striker in an offside position, but the only way to beat it is to make a through ball to any of the wingers, which automatically drags the barce's defense backwards, while leaving the opponents number nine in an onside position.

Well, like you said, the international break is here, so they've got the time to reflect and see where they're getting it wrong. There are still so many games to be played.

[Ndabagi01]

Was it really that unexpected? Well, the outcome was an humiliating one for Barcelona but it was actually predicted despite that the scoreline was beyond prediction. Most of their key players were out due to one reason or another and they played without their favourite front line. The initial 2-1 scoreline would have been a much better but the whole 4-1 final result is a terrible result for a team like Barcelona against Sevilla. It's a bad practice for Barcelona to rely on one or two players before winning their matches. Madrid is currently on top of the table and might maintain it for a longer time if they're consistent.

Barcelona will definitely have their bad days and I think there’s came earlier than expected. Losing with a very big goal margin against Sevilla wasn’t what one would have expected but in the end, they had to succumb to the loss because the better team was Sevilla. I’m not sure if Barcelona depends on only few players when they play, but what they need to know is that depending on few players is not really the best option for a team.

With this loss, they’ve given Real Madrid another chance to go back to the top of the table. Real Madrid’s consistency cannot also be vouched for, so I don’t expect anything spectacular from them until when proven overtime. They are really a very good team that can be able to keep to that position, but any mistake from them will see them being replaced by another team again. The season is getting more interesting.

Everyone was surprised by this result, as we're used to Barcelona not dropping points in such matches.

It should have ended where he lost the penalty, conceding two more goals to make it 4:1 is a team problem not because of the penalty he missed, Barcelona saw their opportunity to lead the table but failed to grab points for it, Real Madrid are on the safe side for this week.

Not having their team star is no excuse for Barcelona, PSG did it without Dembele, Doue, Kvaratskhelia, Marquinhos and others. It was against same Barcelona, they should face their loss and prepare for next game.

[IjawMan]

This is one of the biggest defeats for Barcelona. When Barcelona needs to maintain the first rank, this team actually lost points. And now the 2 points difference with Real Madrid will be really difficult to catch up. Because if Real Madrid continues to win then Real Madrid will continue to be ranked first.

The big clubs winning the small fry clubs has become normal that we have discarded that this is football and unpredictable game that even the best teams get humiliated by the underrated team. Sevilla had their chances and took them without mistakes, a mind-blowing 4-1 defeat that quashed Barcelona  Undefeated run.

In the standings with Real Madrid on top with a variation of 2 points can not be difficult for Barcelona to outstrip because the Real Madrid on the one hand is not in better shape to tarry with that 2 points by staying undefeated in the upcoming matches.

[Iamgoat]

What an unexpected outcome, few days ago we were praising Barcelona for being in a better form than real Madrid, now they lost 4-1 to Sevilla even after they got a red card. It's a relief to see real Madrid back to that top and I hope that they are able to stay consistent. No one actually thought that sevilla would be able to beat Barcelona today, that's why they say football is unpredictable

Wow. What happened today was quite intriguing to me. I think we will all agree that the result of yesterday's Sevilla's 4 goals win over Barcelona was very shocking on paper because it is ordinarily not the kind of defeat anyone would expect from Barcelona but in reality we will all agree with Barcelona shaky looking defense which I believe had been fixed earlier and this is what made it even more unexpected to me because you to came at a time we thought Barcelona was already back in full feet only to see such collapse in performance again. This outcome is indeed humbling and unpredictable. Many bets must have cut due to this outcome from Barcelona. Real Madrid already taking full advantage of Barcelona failed match to lead the table standing.

You're very correct. I think that people are getting carried away by the conventional way of believing that the bigger team will always win. This is one of the biggest problems gamblers face in their tickets. Barcelona's turn just came today same way real Madrid suffered their humiliation against Athletical Madrid some days ago by 5 goals to 2. Teams have some win probabilities of which even a 10 percent probability could win the game.

Celta Vigo almost shocked Athletical Madrid today but they narrowly escaped, thanks to the 6th minute own goal that put Athletical Madrid at the front leaving celta Vigo in their 6th 1-1 draw of the season. This season is full of surprises and fans are excited.

[Issa56]

I was totally disappointed with what Barcelona played because I never think of a defeat like this and even though it shouldn't be with a massive goal. The kind of confidence I have for Barcelona in this match was almost 100% which I thought that they will overtake Real Madrid in the table but unfortunately they failed. A team that you have been beaten for almost 10 consecutive terms at last repair back with an humiliation.

Most people expected a win from Barcelona in the match, but they ended up being disappointed because Barcelona couldn’t get a win. Barcelona conceded 4 goals today, seriously even if some people will predict Barcelona to lose, I don’t think anyone will predict Barcelona to concede 4 goals, thats just much, Barcelona conceding 4 goals against Sevilla is really embarrassing. Barcelona got humiliated today, and lots of people playing bet might end up losing their bet today because most people will pick Barcelona to win.

I don’t really know what’s wrong with Barcelona lately, they lost against PSG in the champions league, now they lost against Sevilla today which most people never expected. For years Barcelona haven’t lost to Sevilla but that was broken today, Barcelona conceded 4 goals today.

Sevilla is also a good team and I wasn't underestimating them before the match but with the current performance of Barcelona I have confidence in their Victory but they choose failure over Victory.

The majority of us here must feel the same way as you my friend. I personally also feel very disappointed with the result of the match. Because I have also favored Barcelona to win without any doubt at all. But what was seen was the opposite. Usually it is Barcelona who always manages to score a lot of goals against the opponent's goal. But now the opposite is happening, namely Sevilla managed to score a lot of goals against Barcelona.

Before Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid had a red cross on their points table. That is, they lost one match, and after a few matches, Barcelona was not expected to be in such a situation. No one could beat Barca before they took the field with Sevilla this season. After losing to Sevilla, Barca fell from the top of the points table. Real Madrid is now at the top. However, I expected that they would not be able to beat Barcelona, ​​but this match shows that the wheel of fortune turns on the field of play. Although Sevilla could not become champions this season, their victory over Barcelona is more than a champion.

I didn't watch this and was very surprised by the result of this La Liga match between Sevilla and Barcelona. Yesterday, I was upset by Real Madrid's defeat against Atletico Madrid, but this time, Barcelona lost to Sevilla? Sevilla's performance is sometimes quite poor, but now, Barcelona was completely crushed at Sevilla's home ground.

Barcelona dominated the match statistically. Look at their attack, they were numerous, but only Rashford managed to score one goal. Meanwhile, Sevilla, who only had five shots on target, managed to score four goals. What a great and effective attack by Sevilla.


Now, Real Madrid back to the top La Liga again.

[pawel7777]

So we have Real returning to the position of the leader of the table. They earned a rather easy 3 points on Villareal, who are also doing very well so far, but were not a match for Real. The first half wasn't very effective, but Real managed to score 3 in the 2nd half, with Villareal responding only once.

Contrary to what I expected, Atletico failed to win against Celta Vigo. They took the early lead, but a red card for Lenglet in the 40th minute really messed things up for them. Overall, I think they should feel lucky for returning home with at least one point.

The biggest shock of the round was Barcelona getting crushed by Sevilla. Before today, Sevilla had 3 wins, one draw and 3 losses, so it was a definition of an average (not to say mediocre) team. After today's win, they jumped to 6th place and are within range to fight for the top 4.
It's hard to say what exactly went wrong for Barcelona as I've only watched highlights. That early penalty for Sevilla (after a weird and unnecessary foul in the penalty area) set the entire game. Things could've gone completely differently if not for that missed penalty by Lewandowski, which would have made it a 2-2, but instead, Barcelona was forced to go all in on the offense and got punished with counterattacks by Sevilla. Despite the result, I don't think Barcelona's performance was horrible. Those things happen.

Barcelona suffered a historic defeat against Sevilla today. Normally, a 4-1 victory for Barcelona would have been predicted, but Sevilla humiliated them in today's match. Real Madrid lost by a narrow margin to Atletico Madrid, which seems a bit more acceptable because it was Atletico Madrid. Sevilla's victory over Barcelona by such a scoreline is quite interesting to me. Historic matches and major disappointments.

[MK-74]

Barcelona lost 4-1 to Sevilla. I was shocked when I saw the score.
Barcelona had 60% possession, but still lost the match. Possession doesn’t mean much anymore; what matters is winning.
This slip-up benefited Real Madrid, who are now at the top of the table.

[KTChampions]

Don't worry about that mate. Flick was totally aware of the injuries happened to his two key players. That's why he plays Rashford as RW while torres as LW. I think it's more than enough to solve their problems. They have pretty good line up to beat Sevilla, which is a bottom half team.

Aged like milk...

The 4-1 is n ded a it steep, Sevilla didn't deserve that much, but a 3-1 or a 3-2 and onbviosuly a victory is truly deserved for what they did in the first half, they did a nearly game costing mistake of bunchign up in their half for most of the second half but the last 15 minutes sealed the deal.
A Barcelona with no answers, dominating after recovering from a painful start but not managing to close the deal, if they will ever try the same tactic with a CL team it will end far worse than this.

Bookies must be popping champagne bottles like M240 rounds right now

Thank goodness I avoided betting on Barcelona this weekend, I felt insecure, and it came true. Speaking of the Champions League, the first serious team (like Inter) and it will be seven goals conseded, as we've already seen.
And I also knew that Atletico was crap (even after 2 good games) and added a "safe" double chance bet (+25%) to the multi-bet instead of the obvious away win... and even this outcome got on my nerves.
Atletico and Barcelona are the bookmakers' sponsors this weekend, but they didn't get me
