La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[TelolettOm]

the match was something nice because Anthony returning to the pitch and bagging a goal surely add some positive energy and Ferran Torres can just shock fans sometimes but is that lack of consistency that just makes you wonder if he is good enough sometimes and another person that goes a bit annoying sometimes is Rashford becuase his decisoin making in the pitch sometime is just too selfish, although selfishness is part of a forward attributes but come on sometimes just give the ball to the next person of just whip some crosses into the 18 yard box and most of this his decisions can come back to hurt the team if he refuses to adjust..

Yes, at least even though Real Betis lost, Antony had already tried to open up a lead in the 6th minute. Just five minutes later, Barcelona equalized, ultimately resulting in Real Betis's 3-5 home defeat.

And in this match, Torres truly delivered an incredible performance, scoring a hat trick, even though such a feat might have been difficult due to the strong opposition. Plus, he scored two goals in just three minutes. Now, he has 11 goals in La Liga, the most among Barcelona players.

Antony came back with a goal. I expected it to be a good match, and it turned out even better than I expected. The match was a flurry of goals. Ferran Torres scored a hat-trick, and every goal was a success. Rasford's penalty earned Rasford a selfish move, but he could have switched the game to the right twice, but he did it each time. He shouldn't continue this selfishness. After the fifth goal, Barcelona became more defensive, and it was Real Bet's turn to come back, and they only managed two goals.

Antony's performance in the game against Barcelona today was something I didn't expect we'll see from him upon return from injury but the Brazilian showed again that class is permanent. Though Barcelona got the better of Real Betis in their eight goals thriller today but I think there are some positives to take from the the game by the home side.
Barcelona should've scored more goals than they did if they had converted their chances in the game. Rashford wasn't as brilliant and clinical as he's been for the Catalan club this, the England international even missed a one on one with the Real Betis goalkeeper. The good thing for Barcelona is that they got all three points and are now found points clear at the top of the table pending Real Madrid's result against Celta Vigo tomorrow

[bangjoe]

Antony gave a surprise goal in the 6th minute and they managed to beat Barcelona's score, therefore Barcelona was angry and all the players returned to focus because of the quick goal in that 10th minute, Betis thirsty to pay a high price for their defeat, 5-3 is a score that makes them embarrassed, currently Barcelona is playing quite well, the last 5 matches have been won by Barcelona well, now they only need to wait for the results of the Real Madrid vs Celta match if Madrid draws or loses again, they can be said to have disappeared from the competition because of the increasing difference, Xabi will be a threat to the position of coach.

The increase in performance is very noticeable for Feran this season because when compared to last season he has even passed the score of goals he got where last season he only scored 10 goals in 27 appearances but this season he only needed 15 matches in La Liga to get 11 goals.

This is clearly a new hope for Barcelona who are always messing around with what they have to do in Lewa's aging condition.
On the other hand, the positioning may have been wrong before because Feran was more often placed on the other side of the field, but now he is prioritized as a striker.
The game against Betis also saw some of the younger players put in solid performances and one player who caught my eye in this game was Roony Bardghji.
He's another young talent who still has good progress to make for Barcelona in midfield.

That's one thing about Feran Torres, he is a small game hero, when it comes to big games, he disappears but he was terrific today, even though he didn't have the energy to, he still pressed, even though it can never be measured to Raphinha's but it's the thought that matters.

As for Rashford, the only issue i have with him and i think Hansi Flick doesn't like is that he doesn't press after he loses the ball, we are not saying don't dribble, but when u dribble and loose the ball, don't just don't stand there, move and get it back  that's why most of the oppositions counter starts from Rashfords lossed balls.

An extraordinary performance by Ferran Torres in this match against Real Betis. A player who is often underestimated. This player, brought in from Manchester city, is often underestimated by Barcelona fans because he has been with the team for a long time but his performance has not improved or stabilized. He is even often compared unfavorably to Raphinha, another player brought in from a Premier League club, Raphinha being signed from Leeds United. He is also frequently compared to the loaned player brought in from Manchester United, Marcus Rashford.

Rashford has always seemed reluctant to win the ball back from opponents when he loses it while dribbling, and this wasn't just the case when he was at Barcelona. It was the same when Rashford was still playing for Manchester United, so he was loaned to Barcelona because he wasn't used much by Manchester United. I'd even rather see Ferran Torres' performance at Barcelona than Rashford's, even though there are better players at Barcelona than both of them if we're talking about more impressive performances.

This goes to show that the more some players get enough play time, the better they become. Perhaps it's time for Barcelona to build around the likes of Ferran Torres instead of worrying about the next center forward from the market, whom they can barely comfortably purchase at the moment.

It would be interesting to see how he performs for the rest of the season Vs Kylian Mbappe.

Barca's defense tried a bit tonight, even though they were still the first to concede tonight, but I noticed a different formation. Barca played with five defenders tonight, but one of them was thrown into the position of right midfield. I guess the purpose was to fill in whenever Kounde moved into an attacking mode. That worked, when they reduced the defense back to four, they conceded another goal and then the last one, which was a penalty.

Ferran Torres seemed active again. it looks like the peak cycle stage and then the whole thing goes back to having a horrible match, getting benched again, being subbed in, playing a good match, making the starting 11, and so the cycle continues

Yes there was but the need work more on there defense line to reduce conceding more goals should be considered a necessity, how can a good teams as Barcelona be too weak to be conceding unexpected goals in all games. In there game against Chelsea in the champions league, they had an impressive performance but become very weak to concede three unrepliable goals when no one expected such to take place. Barcelona's impressive form calls for commendable but needs to focus more attention on the defense to reduce conceding unexpected goals from a small team [

[redhack]

Last week Barcelona, this week Athletic Bilbao's defeat suddenly knocked Atletico Madrid off the top spot. They were doing so well, they had a good winning streak going. Berenguer's late goal upset Atletico. He struck the ball beautifully. Atletico had defended well, but Berenguer found the space to make the final shot from Nico Williams' assist. With the goal coming in the last 5 minutes, Simeone's players didn't have enough time to respond. Alvarez couldn't find the positions he wanted, and Griezmann and Sörloth came on too late. With this result, Atletico has fallen slightly behind the top 3. Returning with zero points from two difficult away games in four days has pushed them far back in the league.

If Hansi Flick continues to put his trust in Ferran Torres, it seems he will be able to compete closely with Mbappe in the race for the top scorer this season. In my opinion, Ferran Torres can be the solution if Lewandowski leaves, Hansi Flick just needs to make sure he keeps him in top form. Ferran Torres hat-trick against Real Betis confirms that he deserves to remain a key player for the team. Meanwhile, perhaps what Hansi Flick should be worried about now is his defense, which still remains easy to conceded.

This is one thing that Barcelona are lacking behind, as they seem to concede goals in every single game they play. It is very difficult for them to have a clean sheet in every game they play and this is due to their poor form of defense, as they lack the agility to defend properly.  And that is why if they meet a good attacking side it is always difficult for them to play, because for what I know, every good team need to play very well from the back and this is something they are strongly lacking to take hold onto.
Nevertheless, they have gain all 3 points against betis, which fail to hold them in that first half. Good game from them.

With the defeat against the host Athletic Bilbao, it can be said that Atletico Madrid's pursuit of the La Liga title is over, because with this loss Atletico Madrid is 9 points behind the current leader Barcelona. Given Barcelona's very consistent performance and difficulty to beat, it can be said that it is very unlikely Atletico Madrid will be able to catch up with Barcelona.

Today every time Ferran touched the ball he turned it into gold. Beautiful hat-trick. While Lewa was on the bench he played like a pure striker. He's already passed his goal total from last season. I also liked Roony Bardghji in this match. Barca's attack is really strong. Lately they've been scoring with no effort. When they play like this, the team's confidence goes way up.

Both teams had a good time in this game. Real Betis started the game very well and they where dominating before Ferran Torres distroy their plan. It was really a nice one from Anthony, at last he makes the game more interesting because the early goal trigger Barcelona to wake up. So its not a bad result for Real Betis I didn't know that they would even score up to three goals against Barcelona, no doubt Ferran Torres made an incredible efforts in this game.

They’ve put together 5 consecutive league wins and have 4 points more than Real Madrid. They took advantage of their slip ups in the best possible way and improved their form, which was at a much lower level compared to last season. Ferran was brilliant, and the penalty scored by Yamal gives additional confidence to the young player. I think the question of who will win the league will mostly be decided by El Clasico, because that’s where you can really see which team is better at the moment.

Though Barcelona got the better of Real Betis in their eight goals thriller today but I think there are some positives to take from the the game by the home side.

Yes, I think he scored the best goal in this match, even lost at their home. So far, he has created 5 goals and 1 assist on 10 matches, which I think is insane for a player who was once discarded and neglected by MU. So, because Barcelona played very well, in that case, Antony was not really considered as best player. he has just recovered from an injury, But his performance was quite good. He adapts quickly, and still has instinct to place positions that are not visible to Barcelona defenders. I am sure he will continue to develop his ability, because so far he has found his confidence.

[Adbitco]

How come no one is talking about that Rashford miss. The dude was literally in a one on one situation with the goalkeeper and funny enough, no single defender was even an inche close to him for we to assume that it was because of the pressure from the defenders, but he was just alone and he still managed to miss that goal. Flick has to carry his hands on his head. This is a kind of chance that Raphinha will gladly finish and the commentator might end it with, as cool as you like. Yeah, Barcelona won and with the score line, they might not really worry about that miss though.

His time in Manchester United wasn't this fruitful and I think I know the reason why, I mean he was headed and coach by Eric ten hag who have gave himself the reputation indeed and again I think most players especially the ones that love to play with the ball at their feet tend to not do well in English football maybe because of demanding it is because not only him but almost all players who have come to premier League and left are doing well.
