La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Jewan420]

Barcelona played without the most important players in their squad in  this match. Lewandowski, Raphinha, Gavi , Olmo and garcia were out of the squad due to injuries. The most  important thing is that if Lewa and Raphinha were in the squad, Barcelona's performance would have been stronger. In this match, we saw that Barcelona's counterattacks  were very slow. If Raphinha had been in the squad, Barcelona would not have been defeated in this match. Their attacks  would have been stronger.

It is wrong to say that Barcelona would not have lost if Rafinha had been there. The competition would have been more challenging and both teams would have had a chance to win. I believe that if Hansi Flick had played his best XI, Barcelona would have been the best to win and we could have seen Barca win the last El Clasico. Injuries to key players in Barca this season and the off-form of Lamine Yamal have put Barca behind them in the league and the Champions League. If Hansi Flick can still play a full-strength team for at least 30 minutes on the field, their comeback is not difficult. Maybe we can see Barcelona as a strong team like last season. Even though Real Madrid won their last match, they don't look terrible, their team still has weaknesses.

Just imagine how bad are you doing and how much the team is conerned about you when they need to put you on a cage on social media, i mean having a preson from the club plus his own manager following his behavior on social media, talks a lot about how bad Lamine is behaving and how much conerned the team is.

The La Liga season is still very long, with only 10 matches underway, and there are still many matches to be played. So there's still a possibility of something happening in the upcoming matches especially with the packed schedule which forces coaches to think hard about rotating players to maintain player fitness.

Real Madrid currently holds a five point lead over Barcelona, ​​but honestly, this isn't a safe bet for Real Madrid. We've often seen in La Liga that a five point lead isn't guaranteed; a team could drop points later or midway through the season. Barcelona is certainly highly motivated to retain their title, but Real Madrid is also motivated to win their first title for Xabi Alonso. So the competition between these two teams will be fierce until the end of the season.

Agree with your opinion, La Liga season 2025/26 just playing 10 games although Real Madrid leading the first standings have 5 points left from Barcelona can't predicting yet will be the winner. Have around 28 matches left and currently Madrid on top perform all main player without injury, regarding last season Madrid have inconsistent performance when several main players injury how current inconsistent performance from Barcelona after leaving by several main players.

Schedule match in La Liga and Champion League still manage well by Madrid but believing if any busy schedule matches will make difficult for having consistent performance. Alonso can rotate well so far by playing several players for every difference games but if any players have absent will Alonso's tactician running as well as and keep winning all matches?

This monitoring is necessary because Yamal has gone too far in his personal life off the pitch and his unprofessional attitude has angered some people. I must give a thumbs up to what Barcelona and Flick are doing now, because if they don't, Yamal career could slowly fade. He should look to his seniors in the past, for example, Messi. But what I regret about Yamal is when he unfollowed Carvajal on social media. That action has gone beyond the limit.

Exjectly in football- wins never depend on one player. That means success in football is a team effort, not based on one individual. The game was competitive but Barcelona lost due to a few mistakes, mainly due to injuries and combinations, in the game of El clasico every side takes advantage of the little opportunity but it is not that they are a weak team. However, it is true that if Lewandowski and Raphinha return, then Barcelona under Hansi Flick will become a strong opponent again, especially in big matches. So there is nothing to be disappointed about yet, there was a loss in the game but it does not take long for the Catalans to turn around.

What attitude did he do that is unprofessional? He shows his girlfriend online, Yamal Lamine won't be the only one to show his girlfriend online, Vini jr girl friend and him are having hard times now with rumours of a break up, lots of other football show their girls too. He post about matches and talked about real Madrid, Jude Bellingham made a post after the match that talk is cheap just because he one cheaply a team that beat him four times the previous season.

[reefsea]

Currently the drama between Carvajal and Lamine Yamal seems to continue because seeing the situation that is happening now after Yamal and several other Barcelona players such as Pedri who started unfollowing the account of Carvajal at this time they began to create a new drama where they might not be in the Spanish national team when Carvajal is still in the squad.

Is it really the mentality of young players always like this where they seem to be in charge of everything and the funny thing is that the fans of Barcelona support this.
It's a far cry from the el clasico of a few years ago even in the era of Puyol or Xavi at Barcelona and Sergio at Madrid.
They were clearly at each other's throats on the pitch in El Clasico but they didn't have anything to do with the national team and in fact they were very successful in that era as Spain were the superior club. But now it seems to be a far cry from the past.

It was not uncommon for Valdes, Pique, Xavi, Iniesta to clash with Casilas and Sergio on the pitch during El Clasico but it was in the Spain national team that they really became one unit and the cohesiveness they had in the national team made them win back to back Euros and even the world cup at that time. But it does seem that for now egos seem to be much bigger as if the el clasico and the feud at the club should force them to make decisions in the national team

This is what happens when young players are overrated that in the end he is like a star who is able to do anything while of course professionalism must still be upheld especially when in the national team where it is clearly a matter of pride not only about club prestige that must be raised here.

True, it could be argued that those days were even more brutal in terms of the tension and atmosphere for El Clasico but club rivalries were confined to the club not taken in other directions just to make egos look good but for now it seems like this condition has really changed drastically because although it is great when young people are very passionate especially when talking about rivalries but that does not mean that love of country should be forgotten.

Carvajal is the most dominant figure in the Spanish national team now especially as he is also the captain there as well as for the young players like Lamine Yamal and Pedri. So when the split of the national team is only because of childish behavior that is based on rivalry it looks ridiculous to me.
Hopefully with this condition some young players will begin to realize that what they did was a mistake.

[Adbitco]

Lol, funny coach. So Hansi Flick actually came out to claim that it was because Raphinha wasn't in the game that's why they lost. Yes Barcelona beat Real Madrid 4x last season no doubt but didn't same Real Madrid beat this same Barcelona 4x two seasons ago and wasn't same Raphinha in the team when they lost 4x to Real Madrid. Typical Barcelona attitude though so I'm not surprised. Last season when Real Madrid lost, I didn't hear Ancelotti coming to claim that it was because his injured players were not in the match that's why his team lost.

Lewandowski and Raphinha are crucial players for this team, but their defense is also prone to problems. If Real Madrid couldn't create a significant goal difference, it was thanks to the Polish goalkeeper's exceptional performance for Barcelona. He made seven crucial saves in the match.

Every season in the LaLiga League, we have known it to be a fierce season for Barcelona and Real Madrid to battle for the League title till the end of the season. For Real Madrid to top Barcelona with 5 points doesn't feel like a guarantee for Real Madrid to lift the 2025/2026 LaLiga title. Real Madrid knows that they have to keep winning their match, not to lose them, so that Barcelona or any other team in LaLiga does not meet them on match points because of any poor performance, there are teams below them longing to top them in points.

It seems that's what most coaches have learnt lately, giving excuses for their failure, almost similar excuse slot gave when he lost to Manchester United although he blamed the opponents surprising tactics, but they should just accept defeat and move on then prepare for the next match and try to do better.

 Anyways I understand the pressure of losing to a top rival club, so maybe he got confused and decided to say anything he thought was good enough to save him the psychological stress of being queried for losing by the fans and media at large.

Five points I a big gap between these two teams that are always against each others. I believe that all of them will try everything possible not to lose any match just like that, and if they can keep winning their matches, the team with the highest points now which is the Real Madrid will end up emerging the winner.

From the El-Classico game that just happened last week, I have confirmed how strong Real Madrid attack is now that Mbappe is in good form, and they are not even starting Rodrigo yet, it means they have depth attacking wise, and I was complaining about Real Madrid defense, I then noticed that Barcelona’s defense is not also solid as well; therefore, if both of them can keep the momentum up, Madrid will win the Laliga.

Just imagine how bad are you doing and how much the team is conerned about you when they need to put you on a cage on social media, i mean having a preson from the club plus his own manager following his behavior on social media, talks a lot about how bad Lamine is behaving and how much conerned the team is.

I think it's a measure to minimize losses and it can be done for now.

Lamine Yamal's actions that are sometimes less controlled and too free with his behavior can cause long-term losses including for his career so that all related elements should be able to play a little role so that his behavior can be a little controlled.

Although we know it is out of the context of professional work when taking care of personal life but of course this situation must still be done so that in the end it does not cause harm to be obtained. If the worst possibility is that his behavior actually makes the situation worse than it is now and it interferes with his performance then this will also be a loss for the club because they will lose their valuable assets.
Lamine Yamal is one of the players who has a lot of potential at the moment but on the one hand his aggressive actions could kill his career and it is the job of the people around him to be able to suppress the ego that Lamine Yamal has now.

[Adbitco]

Lewandowski and Raphinha are crucial players for this team, but their defense is also prone to problems. If Real Madrid couldn't create a significant goal difference, it was thanks to the Polish goalkeeper's exceptional performance for Barcelona. He made seven crucial saves in the match.

Exactly, Szczęsny made 8 saves out of the 10 shots on target for Real Madrid and I'm like this man is the reason why the score line is in such a respectable manner. And I'm like, if it was Courtois most of those would have been in the back of the net. In that very game and on the Barcelona side, Szczęsny was their man of the match without any doubt because if not for his heroics, it would have ended with Real Madrid scoring at least 6 goals that would have been counted.

[RockBell]

Five points I a big gap between these two teams that are always against each others. I believe that all of them will try everything possible not to lose any match just like that, and if they can keep winning their matches, the team with the highest points now which is the Real Madrid will end up emerging the winner.

That five point against ahead of Barcelona will give Real Madrid more courage to gather more point so that the moment Barcelona will want to recover. And the only thing that Real Madrid need right now is for them to be consistent that way Barcelona won't have a chance of meeting them in term of points and it's a great privilege for Madrid, and the goal of point accumulation is to emerge as winner, and from the look of things Madrid will make that Drea. Come through for sure with the level at which they are playing.

From the El-Classico game that just happened last week, I have confirmed how strong Real Madrid attack is now that Mbappe is in good form, and they are not even starting Rodrigo yet, it means they have depth attacking wise, and I was complaining about Real Madrid defense, I then noticed that Barcelona’s defense is not also solid as well; therefore, if both of them can keep the momentum up, Madrid will win the Laliga.

And from that game a lot of people were regaining there confidence in real madrid because they were so determined to win in that game and they are currently in a better shape than Barcelona and the injuries have affected the performance of Barcelona seriously, Real Madrid defense is more better than that of Barcelona, the only thing we need from Real Madrid is to keep the momentum, now that they are reviving they should not end up disappointing there fans because they have a lot of people waiting for them to win.

[IceLincoln]

So in the recent happenings concerning the el Classico and the Lamine Yamal drama, I read on Socials (Facebook precisely) that Barcelona and Jorge Mendes are working together to protect Lamine Yamal’s privacy and stop leaks about his personal life. They want him to focus exclusively on football.
I think this is a good move, it’s imperative that they take control of the young man does before it gets worse.

They are taking this action a little bit late. This is what should have been done since. I know he is still a child, but he should start to not see himself as one. Messi at his age knows how to talk to the press and answer some certain cunny questions from the press to date, but Lamine Yamal is very poor at doing that. He has a loud mouth and might kill his career if he doesn't learn to control it.

We can’t all be the same, Messi didn’t talk thrash online or make jest of anyone or even boast that he’s the best yet people hate him or dislike him for what ? Ronaldo always said he’s the best even when it’s clear he’s not. And he says things online and Messi achieves them. Ibrahimovic was another player that had high level of pride and was also boastful. Lamine just have to learn to focus more on the field than on his ego and pride cos he has not really done anything, we just know he can play ball and that’s all.

Lol, funny coach. So Hansi Flick actually came out to claim that it was because Raphinha wasn't in the game that's why they lost. Yes Barcelona beat Real Madrid 4x last season no doubt but didn't same Real Madrid beat this same Barcelona 4x two seasons ago and wasn't same Raphinha in the team when they lost 4x to Real Madrid. Typical Barcelona attitude though so I'm not surprised. Last season when Real Madrid lost, I didn't hear Ancelotti coming to claim that it was because his injured players were not in the match that's why his team lost.

Not funny at all, the Raphinha before Flick is not the same Raphinha now and you can’t say last season when Madrid lost all four el Classico you didn’t hear anything from Madrid about not being in form cos of injured players, they also gave that same excuse it was everywhere. You lie if you say you didn’t hear anything.

[Cryptoprincess101]

Am really surprised at how these mediocre teams keep getting BTTS when they meet teams from the La Liga, just like the match between CE Atlètic Lleida vs Espanyol, Orihuela CF vs Levante, CD Yuncos vs Rayo Vallecano, CD Azuaga vs Leganes. All these matches involve La Liga teams and these small clubs but yet the La Liga teams couldn't beat them to a clean sheet despite that they are far stronger than those clubs. Anyways, this is just the Round 1 of the Copa Del Rey games so we will have to wait till many of these mediocre teams get eliminated so that we can have strong teams from the La Liga and the La Liga 2.
      I couldn't find a dedicated thread for the Copa Del Ray matches so i decided to post this here since some La Liga teams are also playing the matches.

[el kaka22]

La Liga season 2025/26 just playing 10 games although Real Madrid leading the first standings have 5 points left from Barcelona can't predicting yet will be the winner. Have around 28 matches left and currently Madrid on top perform all main player without injury, regarding last season Madrid have inconsistent performance when several main players injury how current inconsistent performance from Barcelona after leaving by several main players.

Schedule match in La Liga and Champion League still manage well by Madrid but believing if any busy schedule matches will make difficult for having consistent performance. Alonso can rotate well so far by playing several players for every difference games but if any players have absent will Alonso's tactician running as well as and keep winning all matches?

I don't like this approach, if Real Madrid can't take the five point lead and feel easy about winning the league, why are they even spending that much money, Barcelona isn't even getting that much world renown players, they are just building a team from free agents and their youth setup and they are still five point behind giving Madrid a scare? I do not think so, I think Real Madrid should be the winners this season, unless some major thing happens, we should be able to see Real Madrid lift the trophy easily, otherwise it makes no sense.

We are seeing things changing quickly in the world of football, and while Barcelona was great last season, they have shown there are some issues on the team right now, locker room issues, so they will have to fix that first.

I was kinda angry about Lamine lamine Yamal's recent attitude off the pitch. It really got me upset at first because he’s too young to start getting into unnecessary drama. But then I had this thought. What if everything going on about Lamine Yamal right now is actually part of a marketing strategy?

Think about it, when you mention Lamine Yamal, you automatically mention Barcelona. His name is everywhere right now, and that gives the club more attention.

Even after the El Clasico, everyone was talking about him and Barcelona, not just the match itself. So maybe all this noise around him is just a way to keep both the player and the club in the spotlight. Deep down, I feel like it’s all part of a big plan to promote him and the club

[Sexylizzy2813]

TAA and Antonio Rudiger cannot be use to compare Barcelona players that are ruled out of injuries.  Real Madrid had their first 11 team played in the El Clasico but it still gave them tough times to defeat Barcelona. Real Madrid victory is justified as an opportunity for the moment because by the time they both meet again, Robert levandowski,Dani Olmo and Raphinha must have recovered fully from injuries and the game Real Madrid was advantage of wouldn't be the same as previously. This time they would be facing the full squad of Barcelona and Madrid will be dealt with returned of this Barcelona players from injuries.

Nobody should cry over spilt milk when it comes to football  especially on this very El Clasico even if some of the players are trying to make it look special like back then they didn't get close to making it look it was about two big sides. Well, back to the situation of injured players, for me I'd say Barcelona was over confident that they'd win this game like they did last season and even if these injured players are on the pitch the game would have gone Madrid's way because the way they [Real Madrid] was handling the game it was different, I said it last time and it wasn't only to win and secure all 3pt or because Barcelona was not having some of the players, no it was because they took this game personal and if it has to happen that Vinicius Jr and the other midfielders will go back to defend they'd do it and leave Mbappe up front, that's it.
And again I feel Barcelona are beginning to be clouded with pride which is not necessary, now things didn't go their way and they blame it on injury but they won games without some of these guys so why the complain? let's wait for the return leg to see or hear the excuses they'd come up with.

Injuries are always a threat to any team, and when they occur, it is inevitable. Barcelona were unlucky in this case, but the match must go on regardless of the situation that currently faced by both teams. However, if only Barcelona could have played with their first team squad (no injured players), I still doubt if they can win that match, because Real Madrid has performed well this season, and they have also experienced quite significant improvements compared to last season (Real Madrid now has a very solid defense line).

Injuries do happen and no team is safe especially now that the engagements are too much they need to expect injuries at any time and when you said Madrid are doing well this season I don't think so, they win their games but the kind of performance we expect of them is not what they're giving the fans at all even with the number of good players they have nothing special that's coming from them. Like you said Barcelona were unlucky and I hope we won't get any excuse maybe in their next game because I still see Barcelona as a very stronger side but that El Clasico isn't theirs to win so let them use their next game against Elche to console themselves, I believe they can win at home, talking about Barca.
