La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[ingiltere]

Valencia aim to move further away from the relegation zone by defeating Levante at home. Valencia is not in good shape, but Levante is in worse shape. They have only 2 wins, both against teams in the relegation zone. They are new to La Liga but have not been able to improve their squad. They still have players at the second division level. Valencia, on the other hand, has a much better squad. This could be a turning point for Valencia, who haven't won in 7 games. I'm betting on their victory and the odds of 1.86 are quite good. This could go over 2 at other bookmakers.

True I have watched Barcelona play a couple of games this season and from what I saw Barcelona play I can't say that Barcelona defense is that bad. The defenders are trying their best and is playing with a high level of seriousness and confidence, But the problem lies in the Philo of the coach the office tactics been applied to the Barcelona defensive lineup is not effective. There should be a holistic and proactive ways of defending keeping attackers offside is not a good defensive mechanism for a team like Barcelona.

By using the trap he won trophies for Barcelona, stopping it will be difficult to do as it may disorganized the back line, changes may cause them huge defeat considering that important games will be used to try out new defensive mechanism which can let in lots of goals. The trap seems nice since they've all perfected it, majority of opponents still fall for it.

Barcelona defense can take extra signing, someone who is older and advanced that can control the other defenders, the team is mostly filled with young talents with limited experiences.

We're almost halfway through the championship, not even at the beginning, sorry if i contradict you.
I think that if some teams don't find the right setting by December, they won't find it anymore and their championship will continue like this, more or less badly unfortunately.
You can't do miracles in the last 3 months.

Yes, December into January will give room for some adjustments that some teams did wished to put in place to strengthen their team by the start of next year wherein they will begin to get in to the second half of the season.  For the teams who wish to make some transfers, it will be the best time.e for them and for those who also wishes to sell of some players aswell, it may likely be the best time for them to make all of such moves and build so.w more strength for the team.

Yes he managed to win the league last season but if you look at their games they were mostly not stable and every match they concede number of goals but got lucky that their attackers were always able to out score the opponents. It's not a bad strategy but I doesn't suits Barcelona and is not in line with their traditional style of play. I knew from last season that things are not going to work out for for them always and soon they will suffer and lose even unexpected matches.

If a strategy is not more working the best thing is to change it and see how to manage the team for the time being because clearly the strategy has been figured out by opponents and no one cares about strategies all we care about is winning matches.

Signing additional defenders won't change anything at all because they already have tons of defenders and the team can't afford many players so why not change strategy instead of signing players.

Valencia is not new to La liga. They escaped relegation last season when they picked up a little form towards the end of the season. Levante, on the other hand, are new, but I didn't expect them to be this bad, because last season in the lower division, they topped the league and played very well.
Valencia and Levante are City rivals, so I expect the game to be tough. I don't think it would be interesting since both teams are poor, but I would try to watch if there is no other interesting game and I'm not busy.
I don't know yet if I would bet on the game. I might look at it better tomorrow, but right now, if I'm to be, I think I will go for both teams to score. Both have conceded in almost every match they've played so far, and they have very poor defences, so I would be surprised if they let each other score. Depending on the odds, I don't think an over 1.5 is a bad option either. I look at it when I'm ready tomorrow.

And before heading into December, this weekend is also worth looking forward to in action for all teams in all their upcoming matches. Because during the break, some teams may have made changes to their squads so they can be stronger when they return to action this weekend. Meanwhile, over the next month until the start of the year, teams will usually be busier with several things, including the one you mentioned. In addition to releasing existing players, each team will also be looking at players they can target to replace those they let go during that time.

Barcelona's defense seems serious problem for this season since leaving by Inigo Martinez how easily conceded goals every games, recently last ten matches in a row all competition Barcelona always conceded one or two goals every match and difficult to make clean sheet. Its huge problem facing by Barcelona after leaving by Inigo Martinez and not finding right replacement for defender position, Hansi Flick have limit option for central defender position and most of them have not consistent performance.

Big challenge for upcoming match against Athletic Bilbao, will Barcelona stopping the 10 matches record always conceded goals and for the firs time make clean sheet? However still not consistent performance for this season but Athletic Bilbao always scoring goals every matches and any possibility Barcelona make clean sheet or conceded goals again.

The changes may not be very significant if the different points are too far apart. If their opponents buy new players, I am sure they will also buy some new players as backup for existing players. A team like Real Madrid is not just focused on themselves, but they also monitor the opponent and will move fast to overtake their target.  I'm sure Real Madrid will get the La Liga trophy for this season. This is already clear how Mbappe's performance increased significantly from the last session, while Barcelona has many problems with players, they have the main injured player, and have problems emotionally with the young players.

Real Madrid can buy new players in the coming winter transfer market and so can their competitors in La Liga. All clubs can have different transfer budgets and they can decide to buy new players in the winter transfer market for covering their weakness and enhancing their squad quality and depth for most decisive months of a season.

Real Madrid don't have to care about activities of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid on the transfer market, as it's barely when title competitors hae to compete with each other for a player on the transfer market. Focusing on own training sessions, fitness care and player rotation in order maximize player performances and also minimize risk of injuries and absence of star players are important for Real Madrid general performances as well as their endings in this season in La Liga and Champions League.

I agree with your sentiment that real Madrid have a better chances of winning the Spanish laliga this season than that of Barcelona or any other Spanish team this season, but what I will never do is to talk like I am sure about it when we all knows that anything is possible in football and the season is just too far ahead and we shouldn't be making conclusions too early as we are doing so.
Let's look at the numbers of matches played so far and the numbers of games let, we all can agree that the season is just starting, so it's too early now to be making conclusions on who will be crown champions at the end of the season.

Yes, you are right, Valencia is in a very bad form at the moment. If Valencia is not able to change the situation of their team very soon, then they may face very bad times. Because they currently have many players injured and the biggest player in their defense is currently injured. If other players can fill the place of all the injured players, then maybe Valencia will start playing well again and we all might see very good results from them.

I will also bet on Valencia in this match. Because Valencia is in a much better phase than Levante at the moment. The chances of Valencia winning the match between Levante vs Valencia are much higher.

December is fast approaching, and all teams must strive to make significant changes, as the championship season is drawing to a close. Furthermore, I'd really like to see some of the top teams maximize their performances in December so La Liga can be more competitive in the title race this season. As you said, any team will struggle to achieve their best results if there aren't significant changes in the next month, as three months is a relatively short time to improve a team.

It's just 1 points separating both sides. I think both teams should have equal ratings besides the both teams have the same number of winnings, the only advantage Valencia might have is their home stadium whereby in most cases doesn't count much. If Levante can press on in this game they can pull up a draw and share points with Valencia who can't be relied on just like Levante. For me this game can go either way with the most likely being a draw.

With a fairly adequate squad and Valencia having a big name that often ranks at the top of the Spanish league, the poor results of Valencia are quite surprising. Their coach, Carlos Corberan, is still safe as Valencia's coach and there has been no dismissal from the management for Carlos Corberan. Regarding their opponent Levante, a newly promoted team this season to La Liga with a minimal transfer budget of only 4 million euros, it is reasonable if they get relegated again at the end of the season.
Certainly, if you want to place a bet, it is better to bet on Valencia as their chances of winning are very high. Valencia is playing at home, so their motivation is greater to move away from the relegation zone.

[Iamgoat]

It's true that Barcelona still concedes a lot of goals and this is truly absurd because i never thought I'd see such a poor defense from such a strong team. Clearly this is something they need to improve on if they don't want problems with other teams who score a lot of goals.

The problem is that Barcelona is still in a pretty bad financial situation, which is why they haven't been able to improve their defense, and they already realized this last season. If their finances were stable, they would certainly bring in some reliable defenders. For now, they have no choice but to rely solely on their offensive side to defend their title. Hansi Flick could try to change his squad's playing style, but if unsuccessful, Barcelona could face setbacks.

I wonder some times how does a club with this much talents and history still concede goals like the gates are open for who knows how to use it. Sounds funny but yes, why does it look like Barcelona defense is not as solid as we used to praise them last season. It is not like they are not winning matches now as a matter of fact they are second in the table standing yet they have not been able to properly tighten and fix their  defense because now every counter attack on them feels like an heart attack. Look at their last 10 matches, despite they win in majority of those matches, none of those matches was Barca able to prevent a single goal from entering their net meaning in all the matches they conceded a goal or two despite playing with relegated clubs and so on. This is not the Barcelona we knew in the past where before your ball can penetrate their net & score, you must have gathered enough momentum to do so, now it is not the case. Unfortunately the bank accounts is still crying while salary caps have went up a little bit so I don't think they can afford to bring any top class defender now to the team. So Hansi Flick has no other choice other than to push the whole squad back and forth and tell Lewandowski, Yamal and Raphinha to score one more than they do. Smiles.

I saw on Transfermarkt that at least 7 Barcelona players are injured. According to the data, it is estimated that only 4 players could return on November 22, including Raphinha, Yamal, Casado, and Joan Garcia. But I doubt they will play this weekend. I think realistically they are being prepared for the UEFA Champions League next midweek. Barca will face Athletic Club this weekend and Chelsea in the UCL. Athletic is not a bad team; currently they are in 7th place. Against Chelsea, Barcelona will have to go to England, which means there is greater mental pressure.

Real Madrid haven't faced any major challenges in any aspect, but Alonso must be able to assemble the team well enough to maintain their title chances. So far, the team's progress and progress each week have been quite positive, and that's a crucial asset for them. However, despite being the favorites, Madrid must always be wary of their arch-rivals, Barcelona, ​​who are always ready to pose a serious threat. I see the Real Madrid players are highly motivated and they are showing excellent teamwork.

When they're able to return and play against Atletico, they'll be available, but I think Hansi Flick will consider the risk to their fitness, as there's a risk of re-injury. Therefore, he'll assess their condition first, and I think they'll probably play, but not the full match.
Their priorities will also be crucial, and I think their priority right now is trying to maximize their Champions League campaign. And the opponent they'll be facing is one of England's giants, so they need to prepare as best as possible.

4 players are expected to return to the pitch on November 22nd, meaning they could feature against Athletic Bilbao, and the four players are Rapinha, Yamal, Joan Garcia, and Marc Casado. But I don't think they will play the full 90 minutes, because it is quite risky, and besides that, Barcelona must also be wise in maintaining their stamina, as 4 days after the match against Athletic Bilbao, Barcelona will face Chelsea.

Barcelona is facing a rather complicated situation, as they have to keep winning to stay close to Real Madrid, but on the one hand, they also have to divide their attention for the Champions League matches because they are struggling here.

Out of those four player, just few would start and the rest might be introduced in the second half, I said that because some coaches don't like to rush their returned players some would allow them train with the squad to help boost their confidence but take a while to start them or give them full time match opportunity so they don't flop and ruin the teams performance due to lack of confidence.
 As for the case of Barcelona they need to tighten the gap with Real Madrid so maybe the likes of Yamal and Raphinha could start if they're very fit enough, well it depends on how they perform during training sections and if the coach thinks they're not ready to be rushed in immediately then they'll wait on the bench, this season seems tough for Barcelona I wonder how they'll keep up with the busy fixtures if their key players keep getting injured.
