La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Solokan]

The good thing is that Raphinha and Pedri are fully back in the team, and that is a big boost. With them available, Barcelona has everything needed to go for the win. Plus, playing at home gives them an extra advantage..

Yeah a big boost indeed but what about the defense? The problem was never the mid field although it contributed and even with the absent of Rapha , Rashford was able to fill the gap interchangeably with Fermin Lopez, rapha presence is always a+1 though. The only problem Barcelona is having now is their defense and their finishing, Lewandoski is on and off these days same with Ferran but even worse. Last season, you could tell the difference when Lewandowski was on fire, they waste so much chance now plus the defenders aren’t really something they can depend on.

Yes, the more serious problem currently faced by Barcelona is their defense. Even though Raphinha and Pedri have returned, it is certainly not easy for Barcelona to win when they play because even though their attack is good, if their defense is still not good, it will definitely make it easier for the opposing team to score goals against Barcelona. Yes, Barcelona is also currently struggling with finishing, and this often makes it difficult for them to score goals, even though opportunities are always there, as seen in the match against Chelsea in the Champions League.

However, in the match against Alaves, I saw an improvement from Barcelona, even though they conceded one goal. I predict Barcelona will perform better in upcoming matches because I see that Flick is now starting to improve his strategic planning. Well, we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

There are matches in La Liga this week. Barcelona vs. Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid vs. Bilbao are two important matches.

Both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are in form. I expect this match to be a high-scoring one. I expect over 3.5 goals.

Bilbao will host Real Madrid. Real Madrid has drawn their last three away matches. They will want to win this match, but they haven't been effective away from home. I don't think Bilbao will lose.

[HajiBagi]

Real Madrid, in their third consecutive away game, is dropping points against the league's mediocre, mediocre teams. They've managed only one win in their last five matches. Perhaps a small squad is as problematic as a small squad. Keeping up with the rotation speed of the defensive back four is impossible. Rudiger hasn't been on the team for a long time, but he was on the pitch yesterday.

Rudiger is no longer a player for this team. If Real Madrid continues like this, they won't be champions.
They shouldn't drop points in the Bilbao match.

As a Real Madrid fan, I don’t expect any trophy from the team this season with their current performance, 3 draws away 3 games, this is not normal, playing draws against, Rayo Vallecano, Elche and Girona is not good at all, even though Real Madrid can not beat Rayo Vallecano they should be able to beat Elche and Girona, let be honest with ourselves, Xabi Alonso can not coach Real Madrid with what he is doing, Real Madrid last season was very bad but they manage to beat small clubs like Girona.

Another reason why Alonso can not coach Real Madrid is his style of playing, coming with different lineup is one thing that will affect him, starting Fran Garcia over Carreras that is the main starter is a big mistake, him starting, Militao and Rudiger is not a problem because there is no any center back who can start, another thing that makes me think Alonso can not coach Real Madrid is substitution, a team need a goal and he is bringing Gonzalo and removed Trent that will be crossing ball into the box for Gonzalo, Alonso is a good coach but he is not capable to coach Real Madrid.

[amihada]

Real Madrid have been in a bad situation this whole season. They are doing well in one match and then very badly in another. I agree with what you said. If Real Madrid had made such mistakes against a strong team, Real Madrid would have lost by a huge margin. Real Madrid should change these things. If they don't change, if they make such mistakes against a big team, they could lose because of these mistakes.

I wouldn't say Real Madrid is in a bad situation throughout this season because that's not the case. Previously, Madrid had been at the top of the standings for a long time, at least after dropping points in the last match against Girona. Failing to win against a small team in three consecutive matches is a big loss for Real Madrid, now Xabi Alonso must be satisfied with seeing his team in second place after Barcelona managed to surpass them in points. The decline in performance has been significant. I can understand when Ancelotti had difficulty formulating a strategy due to the injuries of many key players. Now, Real Madrid squad has almost no problems, but they still have difficulty scoring goals and are very easy for other teams to break through.

and there were crucial matches, especially that of Barcelona.
If by pure chance Atletico Madrid manages to repeat last year's magic then the championship will reopen in style.
Obviously Real Madrid must win or draw with Bilbao.. of course
this is my personal opinion of course

[As-Soon-As]

There are matches in La Liga this week. Barcelona vs. Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid vs. Bilbao are two important matches.

Both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are in form. I expect this match to be a high-scoring one. I expect over 3.5 goals.

Barcelona will try to perform well in this match, but Atletico Madrid will not give up easily, they will try to perform well and they can take any kind of action to win. But according to my opinion, Barcelona team will win this match and Atletico Madrid will lose and in this match I will like Barcelona team and add it to the betting list.

Bilbao will host Real Madrid. Real Madrid has drawn their last three away matches. They will want to win this match, but they haven't been effective away from home. I don't think Bilbao will lose.

Real Madrid can definitely win this game, because there will be a big difference in this match. I dare to bet big money on Real Madrid, this match Bilbao team will not be able to win even if they try hard. Because Real Madrid team is very strong and the attacking defenders are very experienced and defensive. So I see a big difference between these two teams, that's why I dare to bet big money on Real Madrid.

There are matches in La Liga this week. Barcelona vs. Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid vs. Bilbao are two important matches.

Both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are in form. I expect this match to be a high-scoring one. I expect over 3.5 goals.

Bilbao will host Real Madrid. Real Madrid has drawn their last three away matches. They will want to win this match, but they haven't been effective away from home. I don't think Bilbao will lose.

That is going to be a very strong game for both teams, but I must say that we already know how this games are going to end, Barcelona vs Athletico Madrid is going to be a huge game of football and we’ll I’m expecting Barcelona to come out with all three points, Now Raphinha and Pedri are back from injury so it will be a spectacular game.

Real Madrid haven’t been playing very well in recent games I don’t know if I will consider their performance as an unrest in the club with Vinicius Jr and Xabi Alonso the manager himself, well nobody knows what is happening in the board behind the scenes, but I’m going to go for Real Madrid winning Athletico Bilbao.

[tottong]

There are so many times, Xabi as to rotate the team which has not been helpful with the play of the team, because if we can see for ourselves most of the times, he tend to over rotate the squad, especially to the formation aspect, I only wonder if h is trying to find out the best that may work for him. But I think that is not supposed to be, because we know that this is basically a fight for the laliga title. And that is why most of the times, the team will tend to underperform. If Xabi do not find a way to resolve this issue it will definitely be a problem for the team.

It seems Xabi Alonso still hasn't found the ideal formation for the team, so he's been trying to change the strategy almost every game, especially in their last five matches.
This could be quite disruptive for the team, as Real Madrid must adjust. Unlike the Ancelotti era, Real Madrid's style of play was more open, both in terms of solid defense and flexibility in attack, relying on a 4-4-2 formation.

If Real Madrid wants to improve then Xabi Alonso needs to see a real change in the team's play, where Real Madrid's playing philosophy may be more defensive and flexible, relying on speed in attack.

[Iamgoat]

It's normal for small teams to show themselves when they play against big teams, they may relent or even be beaten easily by smaller teams but ASAP they meet big teams they try to steal the show and become a problem for big teams. Real Madrid is in a slight shaking form recently and have not yet reached themselves. They made lots of unnecessary mistakes in that match, have they been playing against a stronger team, those mistakes could've been deadly. Girona doesn't have sharp strikers that could cover chances very effectively else Real Madrid would've paid dearly for their unnecessary errors in that match.

I like the way small teams like Girona always try to bring their A team against giants like Real Madrid and how sometimes these A clubs also underrate the small ones but will get surprised at the end of the game. It is like they save all their energy for this kind of game turning into monsters while against their league mates they just lose focus. Madrid already getting me pissed with their late weak performance with those draws they keep stacking up which is already affecting their performance even at the table standing, now their mistakes have evidently caused them to lose their position at the top of the league. I just hope they are wise enough to to quickly bounce back with their performance else the chances of taking this season's title might sleep off their hands.

[bastisisca]

Barcelona must be happy now because Real Madrid couldn't beat Girona, so Barcelona remains at the top of the standings. In my opinion, Real Madrid still has plenty of time to overtake Barcelona because there are still many matches left for Real Madrid to play. In their next match, Real Madrid will face Bilbao. Who do you think will win? Sometimes I get confused when making predictions because Bilbao is definitely stronger than Girona.

Happy with a mistake, but you shouldn't base your season strategy on the mistakes of others; this is very dangerous and risks making you weak and dependent.

Each team has to go its own way without taking into account the others' path, and Barcelona is not doing very well at the moment.

Today Barcelona will face Atletico Madrid in La Liga, I think this match will be very exciting and very tough. Because basically both teams are equally great teams in La Liga, so with that it will certainly be a little difficult for us to predict this match. But even so, in this match I will support Barcelona, ​​because in my opinion Barcelona clearly has a slight advantage over Atletico Madrid, besides this match will also be held at Barcelona's headquarters, so it will certainly give Barcelona a much greater advantage. In addition, Barcelona's main players are currently almost all able to play again, so that will certainly add to Barcelona's solid attacking power. So with that, I personally will bet on Barcelona in this match. So will you all bet on this match, and if yes, which team will you bet on?

Furthermore, if Barcelona can win this match, they will certainly benefit greatly. Barcelona currently sits at the top of the La Liga standings, but the points gap between them and second-placed Real Madrid is very small. So, if Barcelona can win this match, they will certainly be able to widen their points gap slightly over Real Madrid. So, I hope Barcelona can actually win this match, because honestly, I'm quite a fan of Barcelona right now.

[Velvet78]

I'm not expecting a surprising result today. Barcelona should be able to beat Atletico Madrid at Camp Nou tonight. I'm totally aware of Atletico Madrid's recent form too of course.

They are the most in-form team in the league these days. 6 wins in a row... Very impressive for sure but this is a very difficult away game for them. They rarely win away against Barcelona in the recent years. I think they will lose today but by a small margin like 2-1.

[dollyamo]

Yes, the more serious problem currently faced by Barcelona is their defense. Even though Raphinha and Pedri have returned, it is certainly not easy for Barcelona to win when they play because even though their attack is good, if their defense is still not good, it will definitely make it easier for the opposing team to score goals against Barcelona.

Yes, well said, the defense is Barcelona's central problem, you can see it from the absurd amount of goals they concede.
The attack has no problems and works in a decent and dignified manner for a team of Barcelona's fame.
The defense, on the other hand, is really leaking from all sides.

[Rabata]

Real Madrid have been in a bad situation this whole season. They are doing well in one match and then very badly in another. I agree with what you said. If Real Madrid had made such mistakes against a strong team, Real Madrid would have lost by a huge margin. Real Madrid should change these things. If they don't change, if they make such mistakes against a big team, they could lose because of these mistakes.

I wouldn't say Real Madrid is in a bad situation throughout this season because that's not the case. Previously, Madrid had been at the top of the standings for a long time, at least after dropping points in the last match against Girona. Failing to win against a small team in three consecutive matches is a big loss for Real Madrid, now Xabi Alonso must be satisfied with seeing his team in second place after Barcelona managed to surpass them in points. The decline in performance has been significant. I can understand when Ancelotti had difficulty formulating a strategy due to the injuries of many key players. Now, Real Madrid squad has almost no problems, but they still have difficulty scoring goals and are very easy for other teams to break through.

There was nothing to discuss about Real Madrid before the last three matches. The fans had high expectations for the team. But when the team could not secure consecutive wins against weak opponents, doubts began to arise about the team. I believe that the team will be able to quickly recover from this situation. Although Barcelona is currently at the top, the point gap with Real Madrid is one point. If all the players in the team enter the field confidently again, I believe that they will be able to rise to the top again. Real Madrid has drawn 3 consecutive matches but has not lost any of them.

I'm not expecting a surprising result today. Barcelona should be able to beat Atletico Madrid at Camp Nou tonight. I'm totally aware of Atletico Madrid's recent form too of course.

They are the most in-form team in the league these days. 6 wins in a row... Very impressive for sure but this is a very difficult away game for them. They rarely win away against Barcelona in the recent years. I think they will lose today but by a small margin like 2-1.

At the moment, both Atletico madrid and Barcelona are in good form. So both  will try their best to win  . But the match is going to be held at Camp Nou. There is no doubt that the Barca players will be confident. It will be difficult to  win against Atletico Madrid. But Barcelona must win this match if they  want to stay at the top of the table.
If they want to secure the la liga title, Barcelona must play well in the matches against madrid, Villarreal and atletico madrid. Because these three teams are in a good  position. Barcelona lost against Madrid. Barcelona must earn full  points against Villarreal and Atletico madrid.

[KTChampions]

There are matches in La Liga this week. Barcelona vs. Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid vs. Bilbao are two important matches.

Both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are in form. I expect this match to be a high-scoring one. I expect over 3.5 goals.

Bilbao will host Real Madrid. Real Madrid has drawn their last three away matches. They will want to win this match, but they haven't been effective away from home. I don't think Bilbao will lose.

It's a bold assumption to expect Real Madrid to drop points again. Athletic Club has been very weak this season, with six defeats already. Real Madrid will be extremely motivated in this game.
As for the Barcelona-Atlético game, despite Atlético's excellent streak, there's no intrigue expected here. No matter how well they play, they always give points to Barcelona (while taking points from Real Madrid or at least causing them a lot of problems). I think a multiple bet on a victory of Real Madrid and Barcelona looks profitable.

[martinom]

So I agree that it's going long, but not because "three teams dominate as usual". It's because all four are flawed in totally different ways, and every weekend's like watching which weakness just explodes first.

Yes, in fact, in terms of performance, it will certainly be a beautiful championship, but there won't be much to do. There will be the classic teams that will compete among themselves and play the usual game. Right now, the other teams that aren't Real Madrid and Barcelona can only aspire to a place in Europe and nothing more.

You don't need to be too sure of Barcelona's victory over Atletico Madrid in there game today even after Barcelona is considered favorite to win in the game. Barcelona may be a better side this season compared to atletico madrid but one must not also forget what atletico madrid  normally do on serious encounter as this because Atletico Madrid knows how to make things turnaround to there favour especially when they are written off against teams like Barcelona or Real Madrid.

I also think so. Atletico Madrid has a head-to-head record against Barcelona, ​​even though they're currently in top form, However we must also be realistic in considering the overall strength of both teams this season, Barcelona is clearly slightly better, especially since they'll be playing at home, So I think Barcelona has a better chance of winning this match.

Barcelona is also currently riding high in confidence after overtaking rivals Real Madrid at the top of the table, Therefore there's significant motivation for Barcelona to maintain that momentum by maintaining consistent performance in every match to continue winning.

[pewboy]

Girona were in the relegation zone. The team's performance this season has been very poor. For this reason , Madrid is considered the favorite in this match. Even that was normal. Anyway , due to the poor performance of madrid's attacking players, they lost points in this match as well. Madrid have lost three  points in a row in La liga. And in all three matches we have seen madrid's weak attacking side. Despite  attacking a lot, they are not able to score. Xabi alonso needs to find Madrid's weaknesses. If Madrid's  performance is so weak in the next few matches, then Real Madrid will fall further behind in the title race.

That's exactly what happened and now everyone knows it, now they're trying to do the best for everyone, Real Madrid is trying to do what they can do and wants as many points as possible, they've understood this and they're trying to do as much as they can but right now they just can't do better than this
