La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[EL MOHA]

I highly doubt that many people expected to see a good performance from the new coach after he lost and was eliminated from the cup. I myself thought Real Madrid would lose all their next games and even lost hope of seeing them fighting for the title.

But today I see that I was wrong. The new coach is managing to get the team to play very well, have good ball control, and dominate the game. Now I even look forward to watching Real Madrid's games.

This is exactly what happens when you try to manage a new team either the players love your arrival and decide to give their all for you and then the games are won by what I call a new manager bounce or you’re not what the players want and they end up with playing poorly before you start to win them over and this is exactly what is happening at Real Madrid with Arbeloa at the realm of affairs. I see that the new manager is actually trying to build unity within the team and that to me is one easy way to break crisis within the players.

Personally I saw that the players are now having new bromance and are more confident going to games if they actually stayed together, we can see that they can win just as many as they want if they keep this form.

Honestly until March, Barcelona's games are against weaker teams and I don't think they will miss a lot of points against them. Later they will face Villarreal, Athletic Bilbao so we might expect something negative there.
Otherwise, Real Madrid is very unpredictable and rarely exceeding more than two goals difference which makes them vulnerable to a late goal and a game changer. I don't know but I still think that Barcelona could hold a bit more their first position.

I just checked the upcoming fixtures, and you are right. Barcelona have Elche, Mallorca, Girona, and then Levante, which will be easy games for them, even if 3 out of the 4 are away games for them. Starting from March 1, they will be facing Villarreal at home.

Real Madrid might be very predictable, but they always find a way to win their game. Honestly, not much difference between Barcelona and Real Madrid in performance this season. Madrid was able to win Villarreal yesterday, and Barcelona may lose to them.

[EFS]

If Real Madrid wants to take the first position, they have to do better, because I am very sure Barcelona will drop points soon. Either a draw or they will lose soon. However, their loss will be useless if Real Madrid dont take their chances too.

It was an easy win against Real Oviedo. Yamal's statistics are mesmerizing. He has almost reached last season's goal number in half of the matches. Today's goal was also very classy.
I don't think Barca will drop points anytime soon. They will play Elche, Girona, Mallorca and Levante in their next 4 matches. None of these teams can really challenge Barca. Real have found a new atmosphere with Arbeloa, but they won't be able to cope with Barca.

[Balmain]

Barcelona comfortably won the match against Real Oviedo 3-0. It's incredibly satisfying to see Yamal improving with every game. His talent seems limitless; he's constantly progressing. Although they had many goal attempts in the first half, they couldn't convert them. The goals started flowing in the second half. Real Oviedo made a mistake trying to build from the back and conceded the first goal. After scoring, Barcelona played more comfortably and then scored the other goals, securing the three points.

Looking at the fixtures especially for the next five league fixtures, Barcelona does have less threatening opponents to face in the Spanish La Liga while Real Madrid on the other hand will face stronger teams but that I don't think is enough to conclude that Barcelona will win all their games while Real Madrid will drop points.
Real Madrid under the current manager Alvaro Arbeloa have been impressive and convincing with their results and I think they have all it takes to win all their games before facing Barcelona for their last domestic meeting of the season. It's a actually a very difficult thing to predict which team will first drop points between Real Madrid and Barcelona but I hope the Catalan club does drop points so Real Madrid can go top of the league standings.

So far, Arbeloa appears to have successfully united the Real Madrid dressing room and made all his players happier with a different approach than Xabi Alonso. However, this is only the beginning, Arbeloa consistency and brilliance will be tested when Real Madrid faces tough teams, both in La Liga and the Champions League.
It must be admitted that the new manager effect is real, and it happens to every team. If Arbeloa can manage the egos of his star players, Real Madrid will certainly be able to win every match going forward.

I believe we can not stay in the forum to predict what will be the outcome or to say that for now real Madrid can not cope with Barcelona, yeah you might be right but that might not be the case. The four games that Barcelona have is an easy one, but this is football as anything can happen trust me, the match that you might be thinking will be the easy one, might be the most difficult one for them, remember all this smaller teams always give problem to play against, because of how they will only want to seat back to defend and canter attack.

Arbeloa had very good relations at Real Madrid, even before he coached the Real Madrid First Team he was still coaching Team Castila. so I think Arbeloa is very aware of Real Madrid's big names.
Unlike other coaches, even if they have been players in other teams, they do not necessarily have a good relationship with their previous team.

So I think Arbeloa already has good chemistry, both with the players and the club's management. the rest is about the Techniques he applied.

Yes it is true that we can not stay here and predict  the possible out come of game with certainty but we have that liberty to just predict and mention it expectations on such, it does not mean it is binding that it will pan out exactly that way. But going by this analysis of your which is true that Barcelona has got smaller teams ahead, the chances remains high for Barcelona.

Well I will say we all have our own separate analysis from our different angles and how we tend to see games on how they are played. Barcelona have a top hand in the league, but still we should also look into the other teams to be played against, definitely we can say they are not just there for Barcelona to go there and win them, they are also learning from their mistakes to play and press more. For now Barcelona are toping the table and they have the potential to stay there for a longer period of time.

Kylian Mbappe keeps escaping with the top scorer award, 21 goals already, 7 ahead of Barcelona's Muriqi making it more difficult to catch up with his brace. I hope real Madrid wins the title so that this many goals of his won't be for nothing. The stats are clear and Villarreal recorded only one shot on target throughout the game which made it obvious they were outplayed completely and the real Madrid defence did their job real good.

It’s what he came to do for the team and by virtue of where he plays and how his managed to keep up with the scoring, it is without doubt that the rest of the team always looks out for him while trying to create chances and he’s good at creating some lone chances as well.

Barcelona comfortably won the match against Real Oviedo 3-0. It's incredibly satisfying to see Yamal improving with every game. His talent seems limitless; he's constantly progressing. Although they had many goal attempts in the first half, they couldn't convert them. The goals started flowing in the second half. Real Oviedo made a mistake trying to build from the back and conceded the first goal. After scoring, Barcelona played more comfortably and then scored the other goals, securing the three points.

They were always going to win against Real Oviedo as, they’ve literally got no choice not to. Worst still, Real Madrid won their game yesterday against Villarreal and are inching close to the top spot on the league table and it’s only expected of Barcelona to do the same and maintain the point gaps.

Surprising result coming from Alaves vs Real Betis
Betis lost to Alaves 2 : 1

Soe researching things:
- Alaves scored first at very early minute: 3' by Carlon Vincente
- Alaves double the goal again at47' by Toni Martinez
- Real Betis was overwhelmed by Alaves' attacks, the goalkeeper made 7 incredible saves
Real Betis attack was really bad, 14 shots, 5 on target, only 1 goal at every late goal.

The thing is quiting going well for Barcelona in this period of the seasons, while some other clubs are suffering right now because of tithe features of games in the other league's clubs like Asernal is losing right now because at this point of the season their are now against strong club's unlike Barcelona that have quite easy clubs to meet in matches in this remaining time of this season.

What you're saying doesn't make much sense to me. By the same logic, smaller teams can also give Real a hard time. Real can drop points as well. Teams in La Liga play against Real with the same motivation as they do against Barca. If they close down Barca, they do the same against Real. Barca have more talented players who can unlock tight defenses. Also, this is exactly what the forum is for, to discuss these things, predict what will happen in advance and place bets accordingly.

Barcelona is not a match for Real Oviedo just that Barcelona was unlucky no tto have started scoring form the first half after multiple attempts but coming to the second half everything became better for the team as they comfortably defeated Real Oviedo with Yamal showing his good form in the game. Yamal is not a one season player he has shown that he can be trusted to carry the team every season Barcelona is good they enjoyed every moment of the game and winning always is what they should maintain.

I disagree with this assertion, maybe it can happen on a lower division team, but not at the highest level of football. Whatever the players are playing now for Arbeloa is just the technical approach to the game, every game comes with it's own difficult, the only superior thing a coach can do is his technique and style of play he chooses for each game. Arbeloa might be doing well at this moment, trust me things can change too, whatever Arbeloa is to the players, is exactly what Alonso was, they are both legends of the club.

lamine Yamal and his teammates played very well yesterday, ultimately defeating Oviedo. Barcelona dominated possession in the match, and the Barcelona players worked well together, allowing Barcelona to score three goals against Oviedo. Barcelona now has three points, putting them back at the top of the table and forcing Real Madrid to drop to second place. As the home team, Barcelona played very well and did not disappoint their many fans. If Barcelona had been able to capitalize on all their opportunities, it seems likely that the number of goals scored against Oviedo would have been more than three. Olmo, Raphinha, and Lamine Yamal scored goals in that match, but in my opinion, the most beautiful goal was the one scored by Yamal due to his excellent movement when shooting the ball into Oviedo's net.

However, Oviedo's loss to barcelonna was to be expected, as the strength of the two teams is vastly different. I believe many people were lucky in their bets for this match, as most likely favored Barcelona to win. barcelonaa remains strong, while Real Madrid's performance is also improving, making the competition between Real Madrid and Barcelona for the trophy even more exciting,

[GbitG]

Congratulations to Barcelona who have reclaimed the top of the table. Real Oviedo don't have a sharp striker, so they just followed Barcelona tempo in the second half. The 2-0 win puts Barcelona one point ahead of Madrid. The rivalry will continue until one of the teams drops three points. Next week, Barcelona travel to Elche, and Madrid face Rayo Vallecano at the Bernabeu. Both teams must continue to fight for the full three points.

The match has been over and ultimately Barcelona have won the match with 2 goals lead. It was very crucial match for the Hansi Flick team because their previous defeat against Real Sociedad reduce the point gap with Real Madrid and if they drop any point then probably Real Madrid will have a chance to take league leading but ultimately Barcelona won it and claimed the 3 points. Initially at first half the match was bit sloppy like no team find a scored but soon in the second half Dani Olmo open up the deadlock in 52 and after Raphina make the lead twice and at the end Lamine Yamal make it 3 with stunning acrobatic kick.....

Now Barcelona have again retrieve their top spot and I hope now they will never let any opportunity for Real Madrid to get the league leading again.

Congratulations Barca 👏

Yamal's performance was indeed always good, and in this match, the most beautiful goal was scored by Yamal. Real Oviedo clearly couldn't match Barcelona's strength, which is why barcelonna ended up winning this match. Unfortunately, in the first half, Barcelona couldn't score because Oviedo defended really well. Luckily, in the second half, Barcelona managed to score, and after Olmo scored, the Barcelona players seemed more motivated, and Barcelona's play improved.

Ovieddo seems to be struggling to escape the relegation zone if their performance continues like this. However, there is still a chance for Oviedo to avoid relegation since there are many matches remaining. In your opinion, will oviedo be relegated this season or not?

[Tamaperdana]

In the match against Oviedo last night,, Barcelona managed to win with a fairly convincing score of 3-0, and this is indeed natural, because the difference in performance between Barcelona and Real Oviedo is really far away. So, it is natural that Barcelona can win this match with a fairly large score. But even so, in the first half, Barcelona really had a hard time penetrating Real Oviedo's defense,, so that's why in the first half Barcelona couldn't score a single goal because Real Oviedo's defense was really good in the first half.

But after the second half started,, there was a vulnerability that began to appear in Real Oviedo's defense and it was really able to be exploited well by Barcelona players and finally they were able to score a goal. And with this victory,, Barcelona is currently back in first place in the La Liga standings and is only one point behind Real Madrid. So this is really a very tight competition.
