La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Mayor of ogba]

Real Madrid's performance was good from the beginning. But when they won in El Clasico and Barcelona lost, Barcelona tried very hard to get back into form, so it can be said that sometimes a loss ensures the next victory. Real Madrid has many star players but their defense is not yet strong. So they definitely need this reform quickly.

If Real Madrid had played consistently from the beginning or had a winning streak, regardless of small or big teams, in all teams. Then they would not have had this fate today.

There is no shortage of interest from the audience to see how Real Madrid vs. Sevilla and Villarreal vs. Barcelona will perform in the upcoming matches. Because there is already a four-point gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Barcelona's struggle of form at some point this season were because some of Barcelona's key players was injured. Barcelona was able to get back to form and start winning their matches with a good goal margin when their injured players regained full fitness. Real Madrid had a winning streak at the beginning of this season, but after Real Madrid defeat Barcelona in the El Clasico, Real Madrid started struggling with form and made way for Barcelona to get back to the top of the La Liga table.

I don’t really know what other bettors think though, but to me sincere I don’t see any chance of Sevilla winning that match, infact Real Madrid are to show their real self in that match, Sevilla will find it very difficult to score goal in that match.

But you know with the way the performance of Real Madrid is going many people are not giving them high chance of winning the match because they are not in their best performance, but one thing is that they are going to be playing at home and that’s another thing to consider in that match. They will definitely do everything to win the match.

Real Madrid must perform at their best and take advantage of the Santiago Bernabeu atmosphere to take full points against Sevilla. This match is crucial for Real Madrid because, in addition to putting pressure on Barcelona, ​​who currently lead the standings, a win over Sevilla will also allow Real Madrid to end 2025 on a positive note.

Alonso should not underestimate Sevilla strength as they will also be looking to take home points at the Bernabeu. This match will not be easy for Real Madrid, but they must perform at their best to secure all three points. The defense is still Real Madrid's weakest point, they should not have conceded twice against Talavera, if they play with discipline and maintain their solid performance, Sevilla will have a hard time breaking through their defense.

One game loss by Barcelona and suddenly Real Madrid is in striking distance and that would be lovely for everyone involved.4 point gap isn't as big as people think it is. It is clear that we are going to see things change a lot and we are going to see a lot of improvements on this situation as well.

What we need to do here in this case is that we are going to get a lot better result for Real Madrid if the injuries return and when that happens we are going to see them be a lot better with time and that four point gap will not look too much to people. I get that it looks bad now, but the only reason why it looks bad is they lead the league a lot once upon a time, which is why it looks bad right now due to momentum they are on.

Yes, if Barcelona suffers just one defeat and Real Madrid wins the match they play, it's clear that the points gap will narrow. But in my personal opinion, Barcelona won't lose that easily, because I currently see Barcelona has been able to return to its best performance. Because we can see for ourselves that in the matches played by Barcelona recently, Barcelona has always been able to score many goals, which is always a sign that their good performance has returned.

So with that, I personally am quite doubtful that Barcelona can be caught again by Real Madrid at this time unless Barcelona experiences another storm of injuries to its players. But if Barcelona's players can stay fit until the end of this season, I am sure that they will definitely be able to become champions again in La Liga. Because basically, for now, I think Real Madrid's performance is below Barcelona's performance. So with that, it will be very difficult for Real Madrid to be able to return to the top of the standings this season.

The defense is still Real Madrid's weakest point, they should not have conceded twice against Talavera, if they play with discipline and maintain their solid performance, Sevilla will have a hard time breaking through their defense.

There is no way to underestimate a team like sevilla. Sevilla has the full potential to win  against madrid. I am saying this because we know the result of the b arcelona vs sevilla match. They beat a strong team like barcelona 4 - 1 . Barcelona has never conceded  4 goals in any other match..

Madrid must play very carefully. If they think they will get a safe and easy win at Bernabeu, they will make a big mistake. Madrid's defense is already weak. Cerreras,  militao, Alexander arnold, carvajal and endrick are out of the squad due to injuries. Madrid will probably not get Valverde in the squad today. As a result , it is going  to be very difficult for madrid to beat sevilla.

Barcelona's struggle of form at some point this season were because some of Barcelona's key players was injured. Barcelona was able to get back to form and start winning their matches with a good goal margin when their injured players regained full fitness. Real Madrid had a winning streak at the beginning of this season, but after Real Madrid defeat Barcelona in the El Clasico, Real Madrid started struggling with form and made way for Barcelona to get back to the top of the La Liga table.

It didn't take long for Barcelona to return to a positive trend thanks to the experience and ingenuity possessed by Hansi Flick, he also gave trust to young players to fill positions left by key players due to injury, the results were as expected, Barcelona managed to reach the top of the standings with a four point gap from Real Madrid. Real Madrid faced a different situation. At the start of the season, Xabi Alonso had his team performing at its best, but after several key players were injured, Real Madrid gradually lost momentum. Xabi Alonso also seemed reluctant to give playing time to younger players. Endrick future even looked increasingly bleak due to Alonso's lack of attention.

Currently, Real Madrid has not fully recovered from the slump, the problem is due to several key players being injured and the system used by the coach is not working perfectly at all, this situation is putting more pressure on Real Madrid and they will also have difficulty competing with Barcelona in the title race.

Real Madrid actually surprised me with the way they were dropping in their points of recent, I can't believe they will suddenly become this weak in performance at their various matches including at the table standing. What I was expecting with Real Madrid after their game against Barcelona was for them to get even stronger and harder to win because any team which faces them afterwards would be scared of the possible outcome of the game reason being they are already at the top then. Now look at how they have weaken their chances by performing lower than expected and dropping at the top of the table standing too.

Hansi Flick impact at Barcelona has been immediate and his experience, and willingness to trust young players have helped the team stay competitive despite injuries. That confidence in youth has actually paid off, allowing Barcelona to maintain consistency and build a four point lead at the top but then Real Madrid, on the other hand, seem to be struggling to adapt. Injuries to key players have disrupted their balance, and Xabi Alonso reluctance to rotate or rely on younger options has limited their solutions. The situation around Endrick especially highlights this issue, as his development appears to be stalled by the lack of opportunities. Until Madrid find a system that works with the players available and manage the injury crisis better, to me I feel like they will continue to feel the pressure, and closing the gap on Barcelona in the title race will remain a tough challenge.

[X-ray]

In the match between RMadrid and Sevilla, I think both teams will score goals. RMadrid defense is still vulnerable, so Sevilla players will not have too much difficulty breaking through their backline which is currently missing many players.

It's such a risky bet, but not bad though considering Madrid's defense has been so shaky. However, Madrid's game against Villa often ended with Madrid won the game, and Sevilla being goalless. So as for me, i'd pick a direct bet to the Madrid. The odds different is significant compared to the BTTS, but direct bet to Madrid have 90% chance to win.

[dezoel]

Xabi Alonso must utilize January effectively as a correction phase, not just a patchwork. He must make tactical changes to encourage other players to take on more offensive responsibilities and perform well on the pitch, while also building a system that doesn't rely on a single central figure. If this dependency isn't addressed immediately, Madrid will continue to lag behind their rivals and lose consistency throughout the season, potentially even ending up without a title.

While it is true that they depend on Mbappe a lot, I would also like to point out that we are talking about a team that didn't had Mbappe and still won UCL with this team. So maybe they do have what it takes to win everything, the problem isn't focusing on Mbappe, but more like other players not caring their load anymore. Look at Vini for example, that dude has like 5 goals and 5 assists this season last I checked, and that is not enough at all, they need players to do more as well.

[karabiber]

In the match between RMadrid and Sevilla, I think both teams will score goals. RMadrid defense is still vulnerable, so Sevilla players will not have too much difficulty breaking through their backline which is currently missing many players.

Real Madrid secured a comfortable win away at Alaves before also defeating lower league side Talavera away in the cup. A notable aspect of this match was Kylian Mbappe playing the full 90 minutes. It appears that Mbappe aims to further improve his goal record in 2025. Already in excellent form, Mbappe will attempt to score every time he gets a chance in front of goal in this match. Therefore, betting on Mbappe to score in both halves of this match would be a logical choice.

[MArsland]

But you know with the way the performance of Real Madrid is going many people are not giving them high chance of winning the match because they are not in their best performance, but one thing is that they are going to be playing at home and that’s another thing to consider in that match. They will definitely do everything to win the match.

Real Madrid must perform at their best and take advantage of the Santiago Bernabeu atmosphere to take full points against Sevilla. This match is crucial for Real Madrid because, in addition to putting pressure on Barcelona, ​​who currently lead the standings, a win over Sevilla will also allow Real Madrid to end 2025 on a positive note.

I have to be honest that nowadays the Santiago Bernabeu is not as scary as it used to be, so any team currently playing there has the same chance of stealing points. Maybe because the era is different, in the last 2 matches playing at home the results were bad, right? against Celta Vigo is proof that the Bernabeu lost the atmosphere to burn the spirit of the players. Well for Sevilla this will be a great motivation that they can do it too.

Barcelona have struggled since the start of the season. Several important players in the squad were injured. As a result, Barcelona's performance was also  poor. Even against the likes of sevilla, barcelona were beaten by a huge margin of 4-1. But the Hansi flick has largely resolved the squad's internal woes. Barcelona's performance is now stable and strong compared to before. The team is performing  very well. On the other hand , Madrid's performance  has now become unstable. They are 4 points behind barcelona. It will be difficult for madrid to close this gap. Because the team is still struggling to regain form.

It's not that they're giving Barcelona the lead, but that Real Madrid can no longer block Barcelona's path to the top of the standings. Since internal problems at Real Madrid, compounded by several injuries, Real Madrid has struggled to perform well in La Liga and also failed to win in the Champions League against Manchester City. So, the path has been opened up for Barcelona without Real Madrid intentionally giving it to them, and I still hope that Xabi Alonso and the Real Madrid management can improve their performance in the second half of the season.

This happened because Real Madrid couldn't be consistent even though there was momentum when Real Madrid managed to beat Barcelona in the El Clasico match. However, after that, I was very surprised by Real Madrid's decline in performance, especially with the internal issues between Xabi Alonso and other Real Madrid players. Clearly, this is very detrimental and effectively taken advantage of by Barcelona to catch up, and now Barcelona is even able to lead by 4 points in the current La Liga standings. 

Looking at this season's journey, which is still very long, of course there is still hope for Real Madrid to catch up. However, I think the problem lies within themselves—whether they can resolve their issues, improve their performance, and be consistent. If not, then there is no hope at all for Real Madrid this season.

Real Madrid should have won El clasico by a bigger margin. Barcelona did not have Lewandowski, Raphinha, Olmo, and gavi in ​​their squad. Torres was also new to the squad. He was also not in good form. Yamal had just returned to the squad from injury. Barcelona's main goalkeeper Garcia was out of the squad due to injury. Despite all these problems, barcelona put up a tough fight at the  Bernabeu. It was very difficult for madrid to win the match. If Barcelona played with their best XI , madrid probably would not have won this match.

We know that Real madrid is not stable yet. And if this continues, they will not be able to win the title. There is even a big chance that they will finish the season in  third place in  the table. So Madrid needs to get back on track as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will be without a title this season as well.

Barcelona's injury situation is a far point and they deserve credit for remaining competitive despite  missing several key players. But then football outcomes cannot be reduced solely to absences. Real Madrid also approached the match with structural issues and are still clearly in a transitional phase, yet they managed the game better at decisive moments, which is often what determines Clasicos. As for Madrid's title prospects, inconsistency is a concern but writing them off or predicting a third place finish this early may be too soon. If they stabilize defensively and improve cohesion, they remain very much in the title race. Both teams still have clear areas to fix and this Clasico highlighted that neither side is close to a finished product yet.

 Real Madrid would need to bring their A-game on tonight when they host Sevilla at the Santiago Bernabeu because I'd not for anything, at least to prove to the fans that they can still regain their post at the top. Although it wouldn't be an easy game, seeing as Sevilla were 4-0 winners of Elche in their last game so there's every possibility that it would be a difficult game and if there's anything we know about games like these, Sevilla despite having nothing to fight for will ensure they make Real Madrid struggle to get those points so it's safe to say today's game will be a tough one.

Barcelona took advantage of Real madrid's inconsistent performance. Madrid have only managed to get  8 points in their last 5 matches. On the other hand, Barcelona have managed to get 15 points. Naturally, barcelona have managed to reduce the gap with Madrid and now have a 4 point lead over Madrid. But , there is still a long journey  ahead. If barcelona cannot play  consistently well, they will lose the top spot in the table again. Anyway, the biggest challenge for barcelona is to secure a win against Villarreal in the next match. If Barcelona can win against Villarreal, I am sure that barcelona will be able to hold on to the top spot  in the table for a long time.

Real Madrid winning or losing probably won't matter that much because Barcelona is playing against Villareal and I am feeling like that's going to be a win for Barcelona anyways. There is never a guarantee of course, both games could end in all three possibilities but to me it looks like we are dealing with both teams getting a win and this week nothing will change because of it.

I already made a parlay for both teams to win so I am a bit biased but I do lose all the time so it wouldn't shock me if either of the teams fail to win but the reality is simple that we are going to see them get a win here. For that reason I honestly expect them both to get a win and not give us any shocker results, Villareal and Sevilla are both not good enough.

Villareal has an amazing season so far and they are able to be a strong challenger against Barcelona, even they are surely considered as weaker than Barcelona. In this season, we witnessed sometimes Barcelona lost points and Villareal are strong enough to do this in this match. Barcelona are stronger than Villareal and they can beat this opponent, but if they think it is an easy match, they will likely have big problems with Villareal.

Barcelona must play carefully as if they lose points, they will lose their advantage in La Liga competition even they won't lose a first position immediately. I am not a fan of Barcelona and I hope Villareal will be able to have points from Barcelona and make La Liga competition for a title more exciting.

[MK-74]

I think the Real Madrid vs Sevilla match will be a difficult one.
I’ve already said that I don’t like Real Madrid’s performance and the way they are playing, and I believe they will struggle against Sevilla.
There is a strong chance that Real Madrid will drop points and if they do, I think they will be completely out of the title race.
