La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Franctoshi]

LaLiga this season is going to he more intense in my opinion, we are going to see a big fight for leadership. The last matches are going to be decisive rather than having a winner in the first rounds. It's one of the things that pushes teams to perform better and build players, whenever a League is lacking competition for first places, we are seeing poor performances from the teams. A simple comparison between Bundesliga or Premier League.

Yes, Real Madrid, as always, is in excellent form and remains at the top, obviously some slip-ups have happened to everyone but i am sure that these guys can really do a lot and can still win in the league against Barcelona, it's just a question of organization.

Real Madrid are in second place with just a point behind Barcelona, well after the El calssico and the gap between the 2 side no one would have believed that in this short period of time Real Madrid will be behind Barcelona. They have been very inconsistent and their poor away foam have cost them so much this season, I was even thinking they will even drop points again when they played Atletico Bilbao.

Mbappe have been very impressive since he joined Real Madrid and as for me I much expected him to dominate, he has every quality to dominate the league. He look more sharper this season and even look more matured in front of goal. As for me I still rate Barcelona ahead of them this season.

I doubt that Mbapp has been impressive since he joined Real Madrid, for me I'm only beginning to see more of Mbappe's improvement just this season in terms of scoring of goals. For Real Madrid, and regardless of Xavi Alonso's taking over to manage the club, their form hasn't really been different from what it used to be this past two seasons their form dropped, if at all there's an improvement but not a significant one. It will take Real Madrid some time to begin to catch up with their usual form if not years in my opinion.

[BRINIRHA]

They remain in second place, one point behind their rivals, but their performance last night restored their confidence after a string of disappointing results in their last three matches. Mbappé looked like CR7, prolific in front of goal, while Bellingham impressed as the mastermind in midfield.
Their next opponent is Celta, which should be another easy three points for them.

Mbappe, Bellingham, and Vini Jr. are truly a formidable trio up front for this team. When they're at their best, it's nearly impossible to stop their relentless attacks. Unfortunately, this team isn't as consistent as we'd hoped. Sometimes they seem to struggle to score goals. And sometimes their defense weakens. So sometimes I don't understand what exactly is causing this team to be inconsistent. Alonso may have made several changes, but I think he is now done with all those changes. And I hope this time we can continue to see a more consistent Real Madrid. The point difference with Barcelona may still be very slim, but if Real Madrid fails in some upcoming matches, that will allow Barcelona to pull far ahead of Real Madrid. However, Barcelona themselves sometimes lose points unexpectedly. So, everything is still unpredictable at this point.

I don't really know if I should blame xavi Alonso for the fact that the team hasn't really been doing well since he  started managing the club. Real Madrid used to dominate the la liga without having any other team close to their level but this season has been completely different. Yesterday's win was an impressive one, they gained enough points and now if Barcelona messes up they csn overtake them

[Volgastallion]

Another day where Atletico was close and ended up with nothing in their hands like alwways, what a painful situation is to be an Atletico fan always there but only a few ocassions rewarded.

About Mbappe performance, what can i say, he is carrying the whole team in crazy levels the numbers are so crazy that make us start to think if he is draining the team in his favour, because no other player is in good performance between the forwards.

Kylian Mbappe is the keyman infront. Without his presence, I'd wonder what Real Madrid will do. Winning games and scoring goals will be huge challenge for them I must say. Xabi Alonso trying to build the club round Kylian Mbappe and what will happen when he failed to perform? That's my thoughts.

A significant role is been carried out by the Kylian Mbappe and he's not going to let himself been out of limelight. He's always going to be there and that player that's ready for Greatness. I admire and respect Kylian Mbappe so much especially when he decided to represent Real Madrid.

Sometimes it may seem like that because we look through the lens of the team's current struggles but coming to the end of the 2025 calendar year, Mbappe has been terrific and he currently stands the chance of breaking Christiano Ronaldo's highest number of goals in one calendar year in Real Madrid. Ronaldo's highest was 59 in 2013 while Mbappe is currently at 56 goals this year with 4 games left till the year runs out. So we can see he is really trying for the Real Madrid's side.

We know that under Xabi's management, the system has been rigid but i don't think Mbappe let's that stop him, just from June when Xabi was employed, Mbappe has recorded 25 goals has of Carlos Ancelotti's 44 goals in total for a complete season, so in a nutshell Mbappe is really impressive.

In my opinion, Real Madrid's season is exactly that where they have clearly had a great squad but have been held back by a lack of consistency. The way they have dropped points away from home, even after winning El Clasico against Barcelona, ​​is like making the league race harder for themselves. As far as I can see, the team that is consistent in La Liga is the one that ends up winning the title that is the biggest obstacle for Real this time. Mbappe's performance is certainly a huge boost for Real. The way he dominated PSG, it is natural that Real has come to the fore. His pace, finishing and decision making maturity all of them make him look sharper than he has in any previous season. Such a start by a player usually changes the mentality of the team, and Real Madrid history says that a top form star can turn the tide of an entire season.

However, Barcelona are not out of the race yet. They are ahead on points, and when a team can take advantage of the pressure, they are real contenders. But I think the end of the league will be decided by who makes the fewest mistakes, and in that respect Real's squad depth is slightly ahead. So even if you put Barca ahead I still think Real Madrid are fully alive in this race, and the end of the league will be more interesting if Mbappe is in form.

About Mbappe performance, what can i say, he is carrying the whole team in crazy levels the numbers are so crazy that make us start to think if he is draining the team in his favour, because no other player is in good performance between the forwards.

It's arguably the best signing ever made for Real Madrid. Furthermore, more broadly, he's the biggest talent to arrive at Real Madrid in recent years since Cristiano Ronaldo. Mbappé is a truly incredible player, carrying the team and single-handedly raising their level. The French star single-handedly shoulderes almost all of Real Madrid's scoring burden. His team is working for him. However, he hasn't won a trophy at Real Madrid yet. That's why he's working hard to achieve this goal this year.

 They're currently down in the Spanish league table. However, I believe they'll improve over time. The rivalry with Barcelona will continue until the end of the year, that's for sure. The matches between them will directly impact the outcome. Real Madrid won the match in Madrid, but there's still one match left in Barcelona. If Real wins there, their chances of winning the title this year will increase significantly.

It's 60 goals actually, twice even for Ronaldo but from every indications, Mbappe is most likely to smash it. Real Madrid still has 4 more games to play this year and that gives Mbappe 4 matches to score 4 goals to match the 60 goals and another 1 or more goals to smash it. With Mbappe's ratio of goal scoring, he should be able to achieve this very record in 2025.

Mbappe is more than a goal machine and if he continues this way, he will break so many goals record created by Ronaldo. Madrid has made his goal scoring appetite to increase because he has all the quality players to assist him.

Madrid is very lucky to have him as part of their attack because with him on the pitch, scoring goals isn't a problem for Madrid. You know what that means.

Yesterday's win was an impressive one, they gained enough points and now if Barcelona messes up they csn overtake them

I don’t think Xabi Alonso should be fully blamed for this because if you can remember last season under ancelotti the same team struggle and they didn’t even win even a single El Classico, last season was their worst season in the 21 century. Xabi Alonso’s relationship with the players and other reason might also be the reason for the team’s poor performance but their last game against Bilbao was somewhat good and you have to understand that managing a big club like Real Madrid is not an easy task, and Barca has always been a great rival that always try to come close or even overtake them.

About Mbappe performance, what can i say, he is carrying the whole team in crazy levels the numbers are so crazy that make us start to think if he is draining the team in his favour, because no other player is in good performance between the forwards.

Atletico did score the first goal in this match but the first goal does not guarantee victory, it is not even in the "almost won" category, your suffering as a fan is difficult at the moment, Atletico are inconsistent even though they are still relatively good compared to the average match they play, just to compete at the top seems difficult for them this season.

I previously hoped that Mbappe could get a hat trick but that didn't happen, he only managed to get two goals, but that was very good, the goal tally in La Liga had 16 goals scored, far from the others. You can't say that, it's all teamwork, even though in your eyes Mbappe is dominant.

[allthebitandbobs]

It appeared that it became important that Madrid wins this game and so Mbappe been a key player and a striker needed to put in that very best that is required of him from his team to facilitate their chances of getting the three points, even if his performance truly has been a bit slacking recently, he may possibly pick up form again after this victory supposedly has helped to create a boost in him amd the team as a whole.

After failing to perform optimally previously, coupled with internal rifts, the players may have been evaluated, motivating them to play the game and win convincingly.

Real Madrid actually has enough strength to maintain consistency, but Xabi seems to be struggling to unite their star players due to his inflated ego. However, Xabi will slowly overcome this for the sake of Real Madrid's reputation.

The problem was very clear, at least on the midfield. Camavinga is a better player at defensive midfield than Arda, but Arda is a better offensive player than Camavinga, also, Jude is a better offensive midfielder than Arda, but Arda is a better defensive player than Jude.

This resulted with Arda playing in both offensive side and defensive side to see where it would work better for them and obviously it was offense, and yet Jude is there, so they can't just take out Jude and put Arda in because Jude looks better, or at least lets say he gets along better and has more chemistry due to playing for longer time. The moment they made that change and put Camavinga back and Jude front they won the game very easily.

Yes, Real Madrid, as always, is in excellent form and remains at the top, obviously some slip-ups have happened to everyone but i am sure that these guys can really do a lot and can still win in the league against Barcelona, it's just a question of organization.

This same thing happened last season, when Real Madrid was ahead of Barcelona in the league table but dropped some points and lost the league. This season, Real Madrid was at the top of the league, with some points ahead of Barcelona, but if you look at the table now, Barcelona is already ahead of them by one point. Real Madrid played 3 matches without a win, they drew 3 of them, and Barcelona took the advantage in the league.

In my opinion, Real Madrid is not always in good form, they would have won the last three games they drew before to the win against Bilbao. I'm just wondering how Real Madrid will play in their next Champions League game against Manchester City, because both teams are struggling with defenders, perhaps there will be a lot of goals in that match.

For Real Madrid, and regardless of Xavi Alonso's taking over to manage the club, their form hasn't really been different from what it used to be this past two seasons their form dropped, if at all there's an improvement but not a significant one.

Kylian Mbappe is the keyman infront. Without his presence, I'd wonder what Real Madrid will do. Winning games and scoring goals will be huge challenge for them I must say. Xabi Alonso trying to build the club round Kylian Mbappe and what will happen when he failed to perform? That's my thoughts.

A significant role is been carried out by the Kylian Mbappe and he's not going to let himself been out of limelight. He's always going to be there and that player that's ready for Greatness. I admire and respect Kylian Mbappe so much especially when he decided to represent Real Madrid.

Since Mbappé's arrival at Real Madrid, he has become a major project for Real Madrid, becoming a goal machine. This was evident from the start, despite his inconsistent performances, but the coach continued to select him in the starting lineup. Under Ancelotti, Mbappé also became Real Madrid's top scorer, even winning the Golden Boot in his first season.

And now, under Xabi Alonso the same is true with Mbappé remaining Real Madrid's goal machine. For me a player like Mbappé is very impressive, and I now consider him the best striker in the world, alongside Haaland. Haaland has also broken records in the EPL, and I think Mbappé will do the same this season. When Real Madrid beat Bilbao besides Mbappé being the standout player I think Curtouis also put in a brilliant performance even becoming the best goalkeeper of the modern era. Because he has very fast reflexes Curtouis can read movements several seconds ahead plus he has a big body.

[HajiBagi]

Everyone knows that Real Madrid is a highly competitive team, if you don't understand it it means you have salami slices in your eyes.

i am confident he'll turn things around, especially since they're already picking up points in the league and will surely be able to get back to the top.
Barcelona now if they want to hold on to first place they will have to try twice as hard as they have done up to now.

Real Madrid is a very strong team. I would consider Madrid to be stronger than Barcelona this season.

Madrid was at the top of the points table for a long time. But due to poor performance in a few consecutive matches , they had to lose the top spot in the table. But madrid is only 1 point behind Barcelona. So if madrid can  continue their winning streak, then they will definitely be able to grab the top spot in the table  again. On the other hand, barcelona also has to continue their winning streak if they want to grab the top spot in the table.

Real Madrid will look more stronger and have a good performance if Xabi Alonso use the same players as the same style of playing he used yesterday against Bilbao, Real Madrid performance yesterday was one of the best performances the team has this season, I did not expect the match to be an easy win for Real Madrid after dropping points against, Vallecano, Elche and Girona, all Real Madrid players played well yesterday and it shows that they know what they are doing.

The midfield of Camavinga, Tchouameni and Jude Bellingham is very good and the midfield is the best option for Alonso, using Arda Guler to control the midfield can not work, Arda Guler is an attacking midfielder and he can not bench Bellingham, sometimes Arda Guler need to be on a bench or he should play as an attacking midfielder, the midfielder of yesterday is the best for Alonso and we can see that in El Classico and some many big games that Arda Guler can not be the midfielder that can control the temple of a game and win games for Real Madrid.

[Adbitco]

The cup games for Spanish football teams is currently on going and from the rounds I saw, it means they are in Round 2 and yesterday I saw teams like Villarreal, Real Sociedad, Girona and Real Betis which are teams from the top flight league and today I'm seeing teams like Celta Vigo, Valencia, Sevilla etc all in action today. All these team are playing In the first division but I have seen all the teams participate, I mean teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao, I haven't seen the, does it mean they are having a special treatment by not participating in the Round 2 as other of their fellow top flight teams. I really need to know why these teams are excluded at this round of other from the same league were included!

Probably real madrid can get the chance to win there next match against Celta Vigo if they used same pattern they used against  Athletic Bilbao, but I get more hope that madrid will definitely achieve three point against Celta Vigo because they are playing at home and won't like to lose any point because they are chasing the league currently with Barcelona, and Hansi Flick is facing a tough club in the league i think last season Barcelona end draw against Real Betis and this season is new let see what Barcelona will perform this weekend against Real Betis. The game won't be easy for Barcelona to achieve three point because they are playing away and Barcelona always struggle in the league when they are playing away. Let see how the game will ended but Real Betis will perform well and end the game in a draw oeget three point against Barcelona.

This stems from the Copa Del Rey format, my friend. The tournament works like this: The La Liga champion, the La Liga runner-up, and the Copa Del Rey finalists qualify for the Spanish Super Cup. Teams participating in the Spanish Super Cup are also exempt from the initial stages of the Copa Del Rey. That's why we won't be seeing these teams. We'll likely see them in the next round.

[Just Say]

Very inconsistent and poor in those games that they played immediately after they won Valencia 4 - 1, the rest has been shit up untill just for the good game they had last night. They won Olympiacos but to me, that was a lucky and shaky win. Real Madrid dropped 6 points by playing 3 consecutive draws that's the annoying part. They literally threw away 5 points lead and are now trailing the same team they were up above by 5 points.

To my knowledge, after the 4-0 win against Valencia, the games these team have played have been inconsistent. In fact, we noticed that Los Blancos suffered a defeat against the Reds and though they won the Olympiacos, the most surprising thing happened when they started drawing back-to-back matches but yesterday, this Spanish giant showed us a glimmer of hope again. It has to be said that the French players dominated last night's Spanish league game against Athletic Bilbao, because iconic player Kylian Mbappe and midfielder Camavinga were able to score for Spanish team Los Blancos, so literally I feel like this team bravely walked off the field last night with a victory, and they didn't care about Athletic Bilbao.
