La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[xzone]

It's still too early to conclude who will be the winner of La Liga this season, but Barcelona has shown more determination to defend their title this season, as seen from their consistent performance, and thats makes Barca's chances of winning La Liga slightly higher now compared to Real Madrid. I hope that Real Madrid can improve their performance, so that the La Liga competition will be even tighter and more interesting to watch, if they only rely on performance like this, then they may not be able to get enough points to shift from the top of the La Liga standings.

No doubt, right now predicting the La Liga winner too early because still has many matches left and 4 gap points between Barcelona and  Real Madrid still little remaining points will reach by Madrid or the other lower standings teams. Barcelona shown consistent performance recently but at the middle January when man busy schedule matches I think both teams Madrid or Barcelona has possibility loss points due both teams will focus for playing in Champion League.
Prefer waiting for several matches later if want to predict about the strong candidate team winning La Liga tittle still many matches left have to play, by the way La Liga match will break to Saturday 3 January next years due Christmas and new years holiday. Seems good recovery moment for all La Liga teams for their players get many days left recovery from injury or getting rest.

They need to make good use of the few days of rest they get; players in La Liga get very tired. Barcelona has done quite well at the top so far, while Real Madrid has fallen a few points behind due to recently dropped points. But as you said, when the Champions League matches come around, they won't be able to focus on the league as much and the players will be tired.

Every club prefers to win the Champions League than their domestic league because it's the big competition. This was what Inzaghi did last season that made him not to win any trophy. Look at Real Madrid, they take their UCL matches more seriously and give less attention to Laliga. The chance of Real Madrid winning any trophy this season is 48%

If Inter Milan had paid more attention to their serie A matches last season, they could have become champions. However, Inter Milan managed to qualify for the champions league final. It was certainly an  honour and the road was also very difficult.

Real Madrid will definitely want to win both the champions league and La liga titles. So far, the team has been giving equal effort in both places. Although Madrid's overall performance is now a bit erratic. Whatever, if Real madrid can solve their internal problems, they have the ability to secure these two important titles. It is very difficult because barcelona is also in good form. But it is not impossible.

Both Barcelona and Madrid have a lot of experience in this situation. They already have patterns to minimize the number of matches that need to be played. But in the current situation, I feel that Barcelona and Madrid have somewhat experienced a decline in their performance in Europe. There are many factors I see, such as players, regulations, and matches. Real Madrid performed poorly last season because many players were injured. Barcelona was no different. As for the league, they are still very competitive and remain favorites to win the league this season. But the league's rules this season regarding FFP make it somewhat difficult for Madrid and Barcelona. They find it challenging to compete for the European title.

I don't have confidence in Barcelona in the Champions League because the competition is tough and the state of Barcelona might not warranty them to be able to win the Champions League but if it is about still La Liga I have full confidence in them that they are going to win because this same to be more stable in that side the champions League maybe when they get better they might have a better chance in the Champions League but for now i don't think it will happen that way, they need to be more focused.  

There are still many matches remaining, so Real Madrid still has a good chance of overtaking Barcelona. The points gap between the two teams isn't too great, with Barcelona holding a four-point lead. Anything is possible, as Real Madrid will certainly try to make changes to avoid dropping more points in the upcoming matches. I still see equal chances for both teams, although Barcelona currently has a slight advantage, having a four-point lead over Real Madrid.

As for the Champions League, I'm not confident either team will reach the final, as several other teams are currently far more convincing than either Real Madrid or Barcelona. In the second half of the season, we might see the extent to which teams are trying to make changes by bringing in needed players. If neither team makes that approach, I believe neither Barcelona nor Real Madrid has a chance in the Champions League.

I mostly support the sentiments presented in this discussion. Barcelo seem more stable and predictable in the LaLiga as compared to the champions league and this is the reason why many consider that Barcelona is a minor favorite in the domestic title. A four-point lead is not a very comfortable figure, however, since many matches remain to be played. Real Madrid possesses the experience, strength of squad and state of mind to bounce back and ensure that it competes hard in the second half of the season. With regards to the Champions league, skepticism towards the two teams is excusable. Barcelo and Real Madrid as compared to other European rivals do not appear convincing enough yet. It will be hard to get to the final this season without proper tactical enhancement or significant reinforcements on either side.

You're right, considering big and important the UEFA champions league is, there's is no football club that wouldn't want to win it, if not for anything atleast to have their name in the book that one certain time they were the champions of the most valued football competition in the world, having said that, permit me to say that, I don't actually actually know what's actually went wrong with RealMadrid starting from last season, you said they prioritized they UEFA champions league last season, I wouldn't want to agree to this because it wasn't noticeable but then, why will you be giving them such high percentage, for me it is lesser than that number for now unless they prove things otherwise.

Real Madrid don't have a chance to win the la Liga title this season because they are not inform and the reason why they are not inform is because of the issue they are having in the club, vini junior is not performing very well as he should because he those not like the coach, real Madrid should try there best if he can lift the champions League title because they still have an opportunity to lift the champions League title, for me I will say Real Madrid should focus only on champions League because right now it is impossible for them to lift the la Liga title except Barcelona stop performing well which is impossible.

[banana33]

Barcelona are really on another level now compared to Real Madrid these days. We see there is a huge gap between their performances. Barcelona are much more productive. Not only at creating chances but also scoring them...

On the other hand Xabi Alonso's students are trying to get better. There was improvement in their last game. But the defending is still a doubt though. Sevilla found so many goal opportunities. 1.56 xG.

I believe that Barcelona owes so much to some of its individual players that they are doing really well and are taking the club to an exceptional level right now, they can hope that Real Real will not recover quickly, so that they can increase the gap.

[bastisisca]

Villarreal is one team I'm still watching closely because they're really having a nice time. With two outstanding games, the team still sits at the 4th place with 35 points. Athletical Madrid doesn't seem to understand that they're as good as being in the 4th as we speak. So it is comfortable to say that Villarreal is the third title contenders and a serious one at that.

Yes, i also noticed that the team is performing in a truly masterly way, and therefore it has serenely moved up to fourth place with 35 points, not many compared to Atletico Madrid, so it can easily aim to take third place from a team short of ideas.

When Inzaghi was still the coach of Inter Milan, he focused his team on the Champions League.  As a result, Inter Milan lost quite a few trophies that season that they could have won. Inzaghi did this because he saw that the Inter Milan squad was not ready for all competitions. The depth of Inter Milan's squad, especially their second-string players, was not as strong as other teams. Therefore, Inzaghi had no other options at the time. Real Madrid's situation was quite different. They had excellent first-team players, and their second-string players were also of high quality. Now it's just a matter of how Xabi Alonso can effectively utilize them across all competitions.

[Akbarkoe]

You need to worry that Real Madrid will go to the top and beat Barcelona, ​​and maybe they won't be able to accept it at that time but they and Xabi Alonso will definitely be able to do it, beating Hansi Flick next year is a normal thing like beating any other team, it just takes a few changes and having a harmonious relationship in the team with the abilities and resources of the players they have will be easy for them, you don't forget that this world will turn towards Real Madrid again.

Although if you were to ask me whether I have a preference on one of these two clubs, I will say an outright no but I am only concerned about the Real Madrid players were on top of their games earlier before suddenly they begin to drop in performance, where Barcelona now saw the opportunity and loopholes then took a decisive measures towards finding solutions either through strengthening the Forward and defense too so they can work better with results.

What if you think that it happened to Real Madrid, not to Barcelona, ​​what can you say when that happens, we have a squad and our club is ready for any situation, we only have communication and harmonization problems in the team, there are no dangerous internal problems, like finances for example, but I admit they are great at being able to survive to this day, I need to remind Yamal not to act too much if Barcelona wants to survive.

[dollyamo]

Currently, everyone seems to dislike Real Madrid's performance especially given their results in their previous matches. They are now behind their rivals Barcelona whose performances have been improving in several matches both in the Champions League and La Liga. It's true as you said it's difficult to determine which team will win La Liga. The second round hasn't even begun yet. All teams are still fighting for maximum results. However the top teams simply need to maintain their current performance. If any teams are lacking in their squads in the second round they will be active in the transfer market to fill any gaps.

We believe Barcelona and Real Madrid are very enthusiastic about competing in the Champions League and La Liga this season. They aren't as preoccupied as teams new to the competition having been in the competition for almost a decade and experienced the demanding schedules they face. It's become a familiar experience for both teams. We'll just have to see what they do in the aforementioned tournaments.

I certainly never see them happy, in my opinion the competition is so high that they prefer to clash with others who still play both in La Liga and in the Champions League.
Honestly, Real Madrid doesn't seem capable of managing both competitions. i don't know, i am not very convinced by their performance.

For me when it comes to Barcelona and Real Madrid, they can make it to the top anytime in la liga. For sure one of them is going to win LaLiga and probably even the Champions League because they are one of the best team this season. Sure, both teams are battling out to win, but I think Barcelona are a step ahead of Real Madrid this season, so that gives them the upper hand to win La Liga trophy.

Real Madrid don't have a chance to win the la Liga title this season because they are not inform and the reason why they are not inform is because of the issue they are having in the club, vini junior is not performing very well as he should because he those not like the coach, real Madrid should try there best if he can lift the champions League title because they still have an opportunity to lift the champions League title, for me I will say Real Madrid should focus only on champions League because right now it is impossible for them to lift the la Liga title except Barcelona stop performing well which is impossible.

Real Madrid current performance isn't a good enough reason to count them out of the LaLiga title race. They're a big club, and they can bounce back anytime. Sure they are facing some issues, especially the attacking and defense because Mbappe is currently their standout performer with his incredible goal-scoring abilities. Vinicius struggles have given Xavi Alonso a chance to test Rodrygo again and honestly he has been given his best

[Catenaccio]

You're right, considering big and important the UEFA champions league is, there's is no football club that wouldn't want to win it, if not for anything atleast to have their name in the book that one certain time they were the champions of the most valued football competition in the world, having said that, permit me to say that, I don't actually actually know what's actually went wrong with RealMadrid starting from last season, you said they prioritized they UEFA champions league last season, I wouldn't want to agree to this because it wasn't noticeable but then, why will you be giving them such high percentage, for me it is lesser than that number for now unless they prove things otherwise.

UEFA Champions League is interesting and important with all big clubs as this title is very hard to win but more important, going far in Champions League brings more money to your club. Even one more win match can bring considerable money to your club if it is a knock out phase and going in deeper phase means more money.

This makes Champions League is attractive but takes a lot of concentration and energy of coaches and players, and as one of side effects, it can make big clubs' performances in their domestic leagues negatively down a bit. Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid all participate in UEFA Champions League and there are potentially big or small effects on these club performances in next months.

They are not doing too good now but their chance still exists and is not too small as Barcelona will have bad matches and lose points in this season. They are not yet reaching to a dominating level so that they won't lose any points in remaining matches and it gives Real Madrid opportunities of reduce or equal point difference with Barcelona before surpasing this title competitor.

[m4r1o]

Real Madrid have given Barcelona far too many opportunities. They are aware of this and are working to prevent further losses. Their recent point losses have been completely unexpected. Apart from the defeat against Atletico Madrid, all other point losses can be considered surprising for Real Madrid. Barcelona, on the other hand, is steadily winning every match. If they continue like this, Real Madrid's chances of overtaking them are very low.

I agree if you give so much to a team like Barcelona, then they will make you pay for it, it is clear that they are now in the meantime in order to go as far as possible, considering the moment of weakness of Real Madrid: they are doing well, they are doing well.

[MArsland]

I disagree, even though the gap with Barcelona is now four points, saying Real Madrid has no chance at all is a very bad thing. I know Barcelona is better, but with 20 games left, anything can happen. It's better to ensure Barcelona have a gap of more than six or nine points, as that could make a significant difference.

It's too early to jump to conclusions when there are still so many possibilities on the pitch. Unless you don't know Real Madrid, then I understand

[JoyMarsha]

They need to make good use of the few days of rest they get; players in La Liga get very tired. Barcelona has done quite well at the top so far, while Real Madrid has fallen a few points behind due to recently dropped points. But as you said, when the Champions League matches come around, they won't be able to focus on the league as much and the players will be tired.

Is not bad for a team to win their domestic league trophy with the Champions League. Real Madrid, Manchester City, and PSG have done it; Barcelona can also do it this season if possible. They can't belittle themselves to focus on one, to leave the other while the chance for them to do the impossible is open for them to prove a point this season that they can lift their domestic league and Champions League trophy together if they work towards achieving that

I don't think Real Madrid has no chance of winning La Liga. Real Madrid is currently in second place in the table. 4 points behind Barcelona. This is not a big gap. Madrid's performance is a bit unstable. But gradually Alonso is trying to strengthen Madrid's performance. Madrid will try until the end of the season to win the La Liga title. At the same time, there is still a long journey left. The teams will play 20 more matches. So there is a big possibility of changes in the points table again. But if Madrid wants to win the title, they will have to play well consistently. If their performance is irregular, they will gradually fall behind in the title race. Barcelona is in quite good form this season as well.

We have to come to understand or accept the fact that Real Madrid cannot reign forever or be in form all the time, and such a time is likely what we're beginning to experience from Madrid's performance since the past two seasons. They actually haven't been in form, even with the little changes done to improve the club and the players and coach's perspectives. Barcelona underwent such a situation, and they rebuilt, and now it seems they're bouncing back. Madrid should endure the process of rebuilding its team, and I do believe with time they will bounce back into full form.
