La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[banana33]

perhaps Xabi Alonso is a little less experienced in comparison. But he is a great coach. He turned a mediocre squad like Leverkusen into Bundesliga champions. Leverkusen won the title after going undefeated the entire season. Madrid have been playing very well this season with the help of Alonso. The squad is very stable and the bonding between the players is very strong now. Madrid's biggest achievement so far is winning the El Clasico. Real Madrid team managed to defeat Barcelona after a long time. Xabi Alonso won his first El Clasico.

Yes, true, in the end he did a great job in the Bundesliga and that's why they took him to Real Madrid, otherwise they wouldn't have chosen him.
We always remember who Real Madrid are and the choices they make are always very thoughtful, thought out for a long time.

[iamsange]

That's understandable. I think Hansi Flick simply said whatever he could to the media without further elaboration. However, Barcelona's defeat wasn't significant, and I believe that in the second leg, when several Barcelona players recover from injury, they will likely be able to avenge their defeat.
El Clasico is always a tense affair, and many players start to get tense, as happened with Yamal. I think that's understandable, especially since Yamal is still so young that he can't control his emotions.

I just want to see more neutral refereeing when El Clásico returns this season, because if we look at the number of goals disallowed by referees, Real Madrid has had the most of them so far. While I also enjoy the fierce rivalry of El Clásico, I'm not a fan of the brawl, as it shouldn't happen in their matches, either before or after. And for their next meeting at a different home ground, I also hope Real Madrid can perform better than in the previous home game.

In a high-tension match, it's certainly difficult for the referee to make big decisions, but I think the referees in El Clásico did an excellent job, so no one can be blamed. The occasional brawl is also quite normal, as it happens frequently.

Barcelona only lost by a narrow margin, and in the second leg of El Clásico at Camp Nou, they'll likely be able to turn things around. I think it will make for an even more intense match if both teams win El Clásicos on their respective home turf.

Real Madrid can't just choose a coach. If Xabi Alonso doesn't deliver positive results at Real Madrid, he will ultimately be fired, even though he won the Bundesliga title with Leverkusen. In La Liga, the competition is fiercer, and we can see that Real Madrid sometimes struggles, but fortunately, they quickly recovered and are now performing more consistently. I'm confident Real Madrid will win the La Liga title this season if they maintain their performance.

However, I'm not sure Real Madrid can win the Champions League. Usually, they seem the strongest in the UCL, but this season I see Real Madrid lacking in strength, and their attack is still far behind PSG and Bayern. So I don't think Real Madrid has the greatest chance in the UCL like in previous seasons because the competition is so tight.

Atletico Madrid are going to face Sevilla home tomorrow and I think they will win. Simeone is trying to fix things in the La Liga recently. They got 4 wins and a draw in their last 5 games here. It might seem that they are doing good on paper...

But I certainly don't think so. I claim they will have serious problems after a while again. You must have watched the Arsenal - Atletico Madrid game in the Champions League. They way they lost 4-0...    They are no good this season for sure.

[Adbitco]

I don’t really think there is much competition in the Spanish League, because when you look into the season it’s just only Barcelona and Real Madrid that are fighting for the title, there should be more teams fighting for the tittle, I really don’t think there is much excitement in the league right now.

I don’t think there is much crisis in the Barcelona team right now, the injuries in the team is something they can actually deal with right now, Barcelona should have their doctors to blame for any injury crisis they are facing because the team is big enough to contain any injury crisis.

Well I think the problem really lies with the fact that the league isn't fair in their sharing formular from the proceeds that they share, maybe it's because these two clubs brings in the most revenue that made the sharing formular so. Only Real Madrid and Barcelona takes more than half of the revenue leaving the rest to share the other part, that's major reason why the league is the way it is in my opinion. In EPL even a relegation team earns almost £100 million, why won't they have the money to buy quality players unlike La Liga. I still remember that few years ago, a relegation team in La Liga didn't even get up to €1 million, I don't know how much they get now, if there's little improvement or not.

Believe me they have enough games to cover up this season, they can still catch up with Real Madrid. This is not the time to also be in despire. Nothing is wrong,  that game against Sevilla and that game against Real Madrid set them a bit backwards. The managers decision to drop one of their finest defenders who can match up with the pace of Vinicius and Kylian Mbappe was dropped. We will definitely see what happens finally. They will have to respond well after that defeat away from home.

I believe you, i believe you, there is no reason to say that what you are saying is false
The championship is still long and there are many matches, if experience has taught me one thing it is that everything can change in just 5-6 matches.
so it's all open, i am telling you because i saw Serie A championships being lost on the last day

The season is still very long, so it's too early to say anything desperate, after all there isn't that much difference between the teams and the points gap isn't that great either. There are still meetings that will bring the two teams together, so just relax and enjoy the competition here.

Now that we are entering week 11, there are actually no very interesting matches this week.  But 2 big team matches will always be interesting to see, and they could slip in a match that is considered easy like this. So let's see.

[TelolettOm]

Real Betis is facing some hard times recently. They have not been able to win in the last two matches. And of course this match against Atletico Madrid was going to be hard for them. But I have to say looking at this match it did feel like there was only one team in this match. Atletico Madrid was a far better team in this match. By the way, the first goal that was scored I think caught the goalkeeper of Real Betis by surprise. But definitely it was a very good volley from Simeone. Actually, both of the goals that were scored in this match were incredible. The first one, as I said, was a really good volley and the second one was a really good curler from Baena. Betis created a few chances but Oblak was good.

Yes, it's quite unfortunate that Real Betis's last two matches haven't been optimal, with one draw (a very unfortunate draw against Genk) and one loss (but understandable considering it was against Atletico Madrid), resulting in Real Betis currently dropping to 6th place.

Fortunately, this time in the Copa del Rey, Real Betis defeated Palma de Rio with a very optimal score of 1-7. This was their first round match in the Copa del Rey.

Atletico Madrid are going to face Sevilla home tomorrow and I think they will win. Simeone is trying to fix things in the La Liga recently. They got 4 wins and a draw in their last 5 games here. It might seem that they are doing good on paper...

But I certainly don't think so. I claim they will have serious problems after a while again. You must have watched the Arsenal - Atletico Madrid game in the Champions League. They way they lost 4-0...    They are no good this season for sure.

But maybe losing to the future English champions isn't so bad for Atletico? It seems that this is not an indicator that should be considered important in the game with Sevilla. Something else seems suspicious to me - Atletico are unbeaten in their last 9 La Liga games, on the one hand they have 4 draws, which is very bad for a team that is supposedly close to Real and Barcelona, ​​on the other hand they are on the verge of another bad surprise for bettors?  

[Toro iskandar]

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.

This was an actual open declaration of Barcelonas dependency on a player, it sounded a bit off that the coach had to mention that, but then for whatsoever reason he did, I hope he get to fix his team because if by the end of the season they have nothing to show for the season, most of the blame will be pushed to him and not the team. Both teams have had a fair share of defeat and wins against each other in the past and this time happens to fall in favour of Madrid taking advantage of Barcelona.

Yes, last season, Ancelotti didn't claim Real Madrid lost when their main players were injured, and I admit that Hansi Flick justified the loss by saying Raphinha was absent.
But one thing you have to consider: is it fair to compare the two clubs?
Real Madrid has far better finances and a wealth of quality substitutes.
Meanwhile, Barcelona only has cheap players and only has the players they have.
Shouldn't Barcelona be given praise for losing against a comparable team by a narrow margin?
One important point here is that Real Madrid would have lost if Mbappé or Vinicius Jr. had been absent from the match.

[m4r1o]

The loss in El Clasico shouldn't be taken too far; it was a natural defeat to accept. I don't think Barcelona is in crisis right now due to the injuries to many of their key players. I see some of the team's reserve players still able to keep up and balance the team's performance.
Barcelona will play as usual, and I think they can win again in their next match. The loss in El Clasico should further motivate them to avoid falling further behind Real Madrid in the title race.

If we look at the problems faced last season, there were many injured players which made Real Madrid's performance decline and this has been slightly improved by Xabi Alonso and indeed if there are no problems with the players until the end of the season and the team's performance can be maintained to remain stable then there is a big possibility for them to win the La Liga title this season but the journey this season is still very long and I think there are many difficulties that Real Madrid will face, however Barcelona will still put pressure and create fierce competition.

Yes, defeats must be accepted, I agree with you, it's something that happened, it must be accepted first and then analyzed to understand where the mistakes were made and then, if necessary, correct them so as not to repeat them. In my opinion, that derby was a good match but Real Madrid played better.

[IvugeoEvolutionCoin]

Getafe vs Girona team match: Getafe team might do something good in this match. We saw that Getafe team performed well in the previous match. If we look at the points table, Getafe team is in the 10th position. On the other hand, Girona team is in the 20th position. So there is no hope of a good performance from Girona team in this match.

[giorgione]

The arrogance of the players will bring the team out of control again, Barcelona's condition is critical, many core players after the international break are injured, many are still waiting for the crisis to increase, Barcelona players are finding it increasingly difficult to win every match.
The El Clasico match is very embarrassing, whether we like it or not, everything has happened, Yamal's ridiculous views have been shown so that they get undesirable results. The next match is a busy period for Barcelona to play more optimally if the core players are still recovering from injuries.

Oh yes, players must learn to manage their emotions and not get carried away, because if they are players this is something that must be learned immediately, but if they do not have an flawless education at home this then also spills over onto the pitch and into the world of work, because let's remember that these are employees.

The game for Real Madrid against Valencia will not be a difficult one, except Xabi Alonso decide to rest his key players against Liverpool for the champions league. I see it as an easy win for real Madrid to have, at least it will definitely retain and maintain the space they have with FC Barcelona. Real Madrid should not afford to lose or draw a game for now because if we look at it, they have both played Barcelona and Atletico Madrid and they are on a safer side to continue the league games to accumulate more and more points.

Real Madrid are in a comfortable position right now especially after surviving the toughest fixtures early in this season fixturing more challenging clubs which could perform. as long as the Real Madrid guys avoid complacency the match Real Madrid will be playing against Valencia should be a straightforward win. Xabi alonso will probably rotate a bit because of Champions league but even with a 360 rotation, I have the believe Real Madrid will still take the lead

Real Madrid is not in a comfortable position yet because the gap between them and Barcelona is just 5 points but indeed they have survived one of their toughest opponents in the league which is Barcelona and in the champions League they defeated Juventus which was a very difficult game for them, against Valencia their aim will be to win before going to face Liverpool in the champions League but in all this games they have the quality players to secure a good result they should not find it hard to defeat Valencia even without using all their first team but a win against Liverpool should be or more importance to the team they have what it takes to get the job done.

So, I'm not surprised Barcelona lost yesterday in El Clasico against Real Madrid. Because, basically, Barcelona played with a less capable squad at that time. In fact, I think Barcelona was quite lucky not to lose by a landslide in that match. So with that in mind, I think Barcelona could be said to be quite great in that match, because they were able to ward off the powerful attacks launched by Real Madrid, whose performance was currently very good.

One of the two has to win, either Real Madrid or Barcelona, that's how the game works.
In any case, i found the match very enjoyable to watch, as as always the two best teams in La Liga never disappoint.
Let's remember that we pay to have fun, not to see someone win

[Bobrox]

The season is still very long, so it's too early to say anything desperate, after all there isn't that much difference between the teams and the points gap isn't that great either. There are still meetings that will bring the two teams together, so just relax and enjoy the competition here.

Now that we are entering week 11, there are actually no very interesting matches this week.  But 2 big team matches will always be interesting to see, and they could slip in a match that is considered easy like this. So let's see.

This season still quite long behind 28 matches left and all teams just gap few points only from current standings position, not underestimate for top fourth team in the race to be the winner although Madrid still performed well consistent at the top standings. Have 5 points remaining with Barcelona actually not secure yet if you see how many matches left this season and 5 points just needed two winning matches if want cut off Madrid's points.

Tomorrow entering the games week 11 and have several interested for watching, Getafe vs Girona is the opening match for games week 11 but only waiting top two teams match result this week will get three points? Real Madrid vs Valencia and this week will play early than Barcelona vs Elche, have pressure for Barcelona if Madrid get three points for this game week but if Madrid loss from Valencia opportunity for Barcelona playing without huge pressure.

[Renampun]

True though, if they happen to win nothing at the end of the season, the blame will fall on him but even as a person who doesn't support the club, I think it would be unfair to blame him on this. Injuries to players is a killer and I know how it affect ms teams negatively, I know injury is part of the game but it still doesn't mean it's effect isn't felt on the team. For Barcelona, this season they have had their fair share of injuries and just as I felt for Real Madrid as a club when they were passing through this injury crisis, it's same way I'm feeling for Barcelona.

Barcelona's defeat cannot be entirely blamed on Rapinha because at Barca there is not only Rapinha, but also other players such as Rasford, Yamal, Pedri, etc., why are they not blamed as well? They also played in the match and are also to blame for the defeat. it's not fair if Flick only blames Rapinha just because he didn't play in the match, he also doesn't want him to get injured, but it's already like that, blaming him for the defeat doesn't make sense when the entire squad failed to deliver. this defeat should be a collective lesson for the whole team, not an excuse to single out one player.

[fuguebtc]

Tomorrow entering the games week 11 and have several interested for watching, Getafe vs Girona is the opening match for games week 11 but only waiting top two teams match result this week will get three points?

Girona is currently in the last position of the points table. The team managed to score only 7 points  in 10 matches and managed to win only one match. On the other hand, Getafe's performances have been erratic,  but they are in better form than girona. In last season's head-to- head matches, these two teams lost their home matches but won the away matches. But Getafe can be considered  favorites in today's match, as girona's performance is very poor.

Real Madrid vs Valencia and this week will play early than Barcelona vs Elche, have pressure for Barcelona if Madrid get three points for this game week but if Madrid loss from Valencia opportunity for Barcelona playing without huge pressure.

Real Madrid usually perform well against weaker teams. Madrid are unlikely to drop points against a team like Valencia. However, Madrid's past record against this team is poor. Last season Madrid lost at home against Valencia. We can be expected that madrid will win. The players are in good form and are confident. On the other hand, Barcelona's performance is not consistent. But against Elche I have always seen Barcelona perform well

[Ahli38]

Atletico Madrid are going to face Sevilla home tomorrow and I think they will win. Simeone is trying to fix things in the La Liga recently. They got 4 wins and a draw in their last 5 games here. It might seem that they are doing good on paper...

But I certainly don't think so. I claim they will have serious problems after a while again. You must have watched the Arsenal - Atletico Madrid game in the Champions League. They way they lost 4-0...    They are no good this season for sure.

We actually just need to look at the performance of these two teams and even try to compare them. Their positions in the standings already show a significant gap. And Atletico Madrid's performance has been much better than Sevilla's in several of their head-to-head matches. So I think those reasons alone are enough to make us confident about Atletico Madrid's performance in the upcoming match against Sevilla. I personally have no doubts about Atletico Madrid's performance this time. They will surprise us with a victory and even I strongly believe that this will happen. It seems that Sevilla will face some difficulties in their attack as they have lost Alexis Sanchez (Source). Let's see how both teams will perform.
