La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[BIT-BENDER]

Barcelona has alot of quality players for injuries to be the reason they don't hold strong for the title, I mean it can still be used as an excuse but my point is it shouldn't. Flock has to work with his squad of quality players and deliver the league for them. Unlike other clubs I get even recommended they get more defense or attack, the squad is packed already although their goal scoring ability needs to be doubled down. I'm a Barca fan but Real Madrid is looking scary on the table. I really want Barca to clear the league this season.

Barcelona are only three points a way for Real Madrid so they are still holding the title defense down. Injury Is affecting Barcelona and Real Madrid but the recent good news has been for Barcelona as their main Goal keeper and Raphina a very important player will both be back. Pedri is recovering faster than expected and Lamine Yamal is getting back into the game.
Barcelona has the moment in terms of the physical and mental well being of the players because it seems like real Madrid players are not happy with their coach and also there are some few injuries.

Chances of Barcelona overtaking Real Madrid is a very big one for them, because just before the international break real Madrid performance as decline a little bit which kept me worrying about their position, i don't really know how they will behave if they are back from international break but the stress will be too much for them since they have messed up in their last la Liga match by losing the three points. This will definitely affect them because Barcelona will make sure they are not comfortable in that place, the 3 points between them is a big threat for Real Madrid but let's see how they will maintain their position. The season is still far and we are still expecting unforeseen circumstances, this is why is better we do very good when we have the opportunity.

The league title is still open for Barcelona to over Real Madrid because Barcelona has the squad and quality of players to do that. Madrid seems to be dropping in form this is a good opportunity for Barcelona to close in on Madrid on the top of the league, Barcelona should focused and keep playing and winning hoping that madrid will drop points if Barcelona is to overtake Madrid the Laliga table then they should show a little bit of consistency with their performance in the league.

Barcelona is close to Real Madrid when it comes to point, it is very possible for Barcelona to lift the la Liga title this season if Real Madrid make one mistake and they drop point and when Barcelona top them it will be very difficult for them to come back, Barcelona is very inform and I usually like how they play their football last season Atletico Madrid was stopping as soon as Barcelona topped the league they remain there till the end of the season, if Real Madrid really wants to lift the la Liga title this season they need to be very consistent in winning matches right now they don't need to lose any match or even draw any match they need to be winning all their matches in order to give Barcelona more gap the more gap they give to Barcelona the more chance they will have to win the la Liga title.

[Adbitco]

Ancelotti got some criticism and wasn't entirely seen as an hero in his final season before leaving but I must say he was still given some amount of respect because it was a mutual agreement for him to leave at the end of the season.  If it was any manager, after his first shameful defeats against Barcelona he would have been sacked and it was not like he wasn't entirely at fault since he could have at least strengthened his squad especially during the January transfer window but he continues to sticks with his tradition of not signing much players while key players were a orn out already after so many games.

Yeah, he left on mutual agreement and I think the management respected him because of all what his done for the club, both in his first and second spell and again I still think they understand that the fault wasn't from him but from the board and of course they wouldn't come to admit that openly. I really don't think he would have been sacked based on that loss to Barcelona, coaches that has done more for the club doesn't get sacked letters the next day after heavy defeats.

There is a long way to go in La Liga, so anything can still happen, it is not even impossible that the teams that are currently ranked 4th and 5th (Villarreal and Atletico Madrid) could make a surprise and take part in the title race because currently the points gap between them is not that far. The real challenge is when injury problems strike, especially if it happen when the season is about to end, so that this can affect the consistency of a team and worst of all, the team's performance will decline because of it.

[8rch7]

It's quite unlucky for Real Madrid that players are injured all the time, I don't know how they train so that every player is injured, this must be fixed, events like this if they continue to repeat will result in a setback for the team, it's difficult for Real Madrid to get wins both in La Liga and in the Champions League, Xabi come on work well, do your best performance, don't make us disappointed in Real Madrid this season again, you are a great coach, I believe it.

International break always not friendly for Real Madrid and upcoming match have bad position after losing two central defender Dean Huijsen and Eder Militao. Indeed still waiting medical check up to confirm how many weeks later absent for Madrid likely Eder Militao need around several weeks later recovery from injury and Alonso must looking the new formation for filling central defender position. Currently Madrid have loss Rudiger must absent for longer time and the recently international break make Madrid have loss two central defender again Eder Militao and Dean Huijsen.
Alonso seems has several change his tactician for next match against Elche after several players injury and playing for international break match, for central defender will make rotation beside any main player injury he must looking who will replace defender position as usually playing between Militao and Den Huijsen.

From which perspective do you see Madrid's performance declining? Was it their defeat in the UCL? Or the draw against Rayo?

The defeat against Liverpool in the UCL wasn't the first time, and neither was the draw against Rayo. It's normal for a repeat of that, and it doesn't necessarily mean Madrid's performance is declining.

If you believe Barcelona can catch up, that's possible, but you should consider the fact that Barcelona has several key players injured. Issues like this can also impact performance.

Yes Barcelona can still get ahead of Real Madrid just like last season but I doubt that will be the case here. It's not like Real Madrid are seriously struggling to get wins though there's are still inconsistency but that's also seen in Barcelona and the returning of Lewandowski will boost their attack but it's not like he hasn't been criticized this season for not performing as expected.

The competition is more serious now with the squad strengthening of Real Madrid and players returning from injuries also.

Barcelona still have much opportunities to win the laliga because real madrid can lose at any moment and if Hansi Flick can perform more better and start to win all is  matches in the league competition they can too the league again but that won't be easy because the moment Barcelona achieve three point madrid will have more motivation to win there match because if Barcelona win and madrid failed that will be a tough competition for real madrid and xabi Alonso. Even when they play el classico Barcelona struggle to try to end the match in a draw but they just don't have the opportunity to get the chance and win because madrid defense the goal and they achieved the three point. Let see if Barcelona can beat Athletico Bilbao this week and face Chelsea in the Champions League next week.

The points gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona will remain close until the end of the year. Currently, the difference is only three points, and the main reason for this difference is Real Madrid's victory against Barcelona. Had they drawn that match, they would now be in the league with the same points total. They still have an equal chance in the title race, and it's important to remember that Atlético Madrid is right behind them.

Some weeks ago when Barcelonas struggle began and they started performing poorly in the last liga, a lot of taughts did came up in the light that Barcelona may likely not be able to get to Madrid again or may eventually stay behind them and not have a chance at the title this season but at this time, it is now clear that Barcelona has got what it takes and if they are for any reason been undermined, they will just shock Madrid in a way they may not be able to recover for the rest of the season.

Barcelona can only improve and do better if they stop this new style of play (the high line) that have been holding them back from attacking with full force and defending. I believe that if they go back to how they used to play that they'll get back to that aggressive form and get back to the top of the table, Madrid is not a threat as it stands because with time they'll drop point when it matters, it will happen if they too don't stay sharp at the top of the table.

[TelolettOm]

.......Miltaio, has once again suffered an injury while playing for his national team, Brazil...........

This will add to the injury list which could impact Real Madrid's overall performance which faces a busy match schedule. Previously, the defensive crisis was still a somewhat difficult problem to overcome. I think Real Madrid needs to explore several options in the upcoming transfer window and recruit several players who can strengthen the defense, as this has an impact on the team. Xabi Alonso needs to work hard to address his defensive crisis, because if not addressed, it will be difficult for him to maintain the top spot in the standings as the competition in the Champions League intensifies.

It's quite sad to see how more and more Real Madrid players are suffering from injuries. The latest update is that Militao has a muscle injury and will be out for around two weeks. This means he will miss matches against Elche, Olympiacos, Girona, and Athletic (both in the Champions League and La Liga).

It's not just Real Madrid ending up in such crisis after the international break. A number of clubs are also having similar challenges, which makes me think if there should be a solution to player getting injured while on international duty. Also, getting a good replacement or backup in the January transfer window is highly unlikely unless if they just groom their academy players.

Since it is very far from the end of the season, I agree that Barcelona still has a chance to overtake Real Madrid. However, Barcelona can't beat Real Madrid based on the quality players only. Real Madrid also has quality players, even they have more popular players. Now, the key point is how to play more consistent. Which team can perform more consistent than other teams, they will win the trophy. So far, I think Real Madrid could player more consistent in La Liga matches.

It's quite sad to see how more and more Real Madrid players are suffering from injuries. The latest update is that Militao has a muscle injury and will be out for around two weeks. This means he will miss matches against Elche, Olympiacos, Girona, and Athletic (both in the Champions League and La Liga).

This is actually something usual happening in each season. In the last season, Real Madrid also experienced this injured problem. The busy schedules among the players is caused the injured and fatigue. But Real Madrid looks like having a better squad this season, they have enough players to deal with the injured problem. By the way, there are some players in Real Madrid who often get injured. Militao, Carvajal, and Alaba are prone to injury. I think these players deserve to put on the transfer list in the next transfer windows.

Yes, it is true that the reason why Barcelona has been weaker lately is because some of its key players are injured, but Barcelona actually has many good players, so Flick should be able to make the existing players perform very well because, of course, all Barcelona players are good. However, for now, the Barcelona squad is certainly good because the key player who is still injured is Raphinha, so now Barcelona must be strong because Yamal and Lewandowski have also recovered from their injuries. Yes, Flick must work hard to ensure Barcelona's players perform well and ultimately win trophies again.As a Barcelona fan, I think you shouldn't be sad because the point difference between Barcelona and Real Madrid isn't that big, so there's a chance for Barcelona to overtake Real Madrid. In my opinion, the only way for Barcelona to overtake Real Madrid is if Barcelona can win the upcoming El Clasico match, and I think Barcelona has the potential to win the upcoming El Clasico match, so Barcelona will be able to overtake Real Madrid.

Militao's injury will likely have an impact on Real Madrid's performance, as Militao has had quite a good performance this season, so without him, there might be a hole in the back line. But Real Madrid was quite lucky that Militao did not suffer a serious injury, because if that happened again, then Militao could lose his prime again (it would take a long time for him to return to his current form). Apart from Militao, Huijsen reportedly also suffered an injury and even had to return to Madrid earlier because of this problem. Fortunately the injury was not serious, and it is likely that Huijsen will be able to play in the match against Elche.

Barcelona lost to Real Madrid in El Clasico and were a bit behind due to injuries to some key players. They are only 3 points behind Real Madrid but overall their performance is not that weak. I am not ruling out Barcelona from winning the trophy because they are still a great team and compared to Real Madrid. The injured players are recovering. Yamal is in good form and Lewandowski has returned to good form in recent matches. Overall I think Barcelona is an impressive team at the moment. In the upcoming match against Atletico Madrid the match will not be easy but the chances of winning will be high.

They'll be playing Athletic Club, not Atlético Madrid. Real Madrid clearly has the advantage right now, but the gap between them and Barcelona doesn't seem to be that big. We're talking about a three-point difference, and in football, a three-point difference means a near-neck battle. The fierce competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid continues. We'll be watching this battle until the end of the year, even if the leaders change.

Source: Eder Militão is expected to miss 2 weeks

If absent for only 2 weeks, it will not have a major impact on the team; 2 weeks means missing only 2 matches in the league. So it will not significantly affect the overall strength of the team. If it is a national duty, all teams in the top European leagues will experience the same situation, as injuries causing absences can happen. But every team has competitive substitutes who are more or less on par with the main players, so when a player gets injured, there is adequate backup to replace the injured player, especially for elite and wealthy clubs at the level of Real Madrid.
