La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

They played their last Champions League match against Benfica and conceded four goals. Furthermore, two of their players received red cards and will miss the next match against Benfica. Given their demanding schedule and the need to prioritize the Champions League, I think they are likely to drop points in the league.

As i said elsewhere and even a few days ago, i have given Real Madrid my personal negative outlook at the moment.
The team isn't working, and they can't put everything on Kylian Mbappe's shoulders.
It doesn't work that way in teams like that, sorry.

Jokes apart, Real Madrid is not doing too bad this season and I'm wondering why everyone have written them off already. Could it be that you guys expected so much from them and as they are not flying high yet, a feeling of disappointment have taken over? The fact is that Real Madrid can still win the La Liga as well as the UEFA Champions League this season. They are just one point behind Barcelona which clearly shows that the league is not over. Secondly, they can qualify in the Champions League playoffs and go ahead to win the trophy.

While I agree that Mbappe is even better at left wing, he is already scoring the most goals and doing wonderful, dude is great so far as striker and it is not really a problem. He had the same thing at PSG too, Neymar was mostly at left wing and that is why Mbappe played a striker role.

I think it's time to let go of the idea that Mbappe is a left winger, that was back when he first started but it has been nearly 5 years now since he started playing striker, maybe even more, and that's why I think it's clear that he is a pure striker now.

I think that result doesn't really reflect the image of club we all knew, though Real Madrid haven't been their best all through this season but I believe to they won't flop for the second time when they meet Benfica at the playoff stages,

I consider Real Madrid to be favourites this time around, besides it's going to be a two legged match and Real Madrid will utilise this opportunity to take revenge after being humiliated by the Portuguese side in the last group game.

Real madrid is a big club and any mistakes they make and lose a point they won't see there previous performance anymore they will focus on the present one. The way Real Madrid are they don't suppose to be losing the way they are doing this season last season theysr4 not in a better shap and make Barcelona get all the competition they face with each other they always take it.

If am not mistakenly last season Barcelona face real madrid three times and real madrid didn't get even draw i the matches, but now real madrid have improved better and doing good in the league competition and even get the chance to beat Barcelona for the first leg in the league competition. But they failed to best them in the finals of the super cup they still have second leg in the league to play because they are fighting for the league title this season.

By their standard, they're not doing well. People only believe that they can win the league and the Champions League because of who they are. We know the kind of team they are and what they have done in the past. But if you take all that aside and look at them currently, they are not in good shape at all.
The only reason they are just one point behind Barcelona is that Barcelona, to,o was not in top form in the league. They have dropped points in games they shouldn't have. With the way Madrid is playing, they will drop points in the league soon. It's not every game that they would be saved by a last minute penalty or an individual brilliance.

In the UCL, even if they survive Benfica and make it to the knock out stage, it would still be like last season where they were limited by Arsenal.
If a smaller team was perfomaing like Madrid, people would have said the team is doing well, but for a team like Madrid, this is not good enough.

You are joking right ? Honestly with this current Real Madrid under Arbeloa, that just can't happen, in Laliga it's normal to see Real Madrid win because at any point they can get a penalty to take a lead but in the Champions League, it's just different, you are meeting the best of Europe, not just in players but also managers, just imagine that Arbeloa and Pep matchup, I wonder if you will place your bet on Arbeloa.

We are seeing the Real Madrid team, and it's looking that something terrible is cooking up ready to implode. Currently Real Madrid in fact Laliga is looking like a joke compared to the top teams in the UCL

It actually looks like we are going to watch a Barcelona - Atletico Madrid matchup in the Copa del Rey. Probably Simeone won't lose at home in the first leg but I don't feel good things for them in the second leg.

About the other semi final matchup between Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao I'm not sure. They are really close teams in the La Liga now. I wouldn't be surprised with any outcome. I don't even expect the winner to reach the trophy anyway.

A​​tlético confident in their previous meeting good in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals Atletico Madrid - Real Betis 5-0 This victory will give Simeone and company more confidence, especially during the first leg since they're playing at home. Home ground advantage should give Atletico Madrid the possibility to get something out of the first leg, and if they get that, then the second leg in Barcelona won't be too tough even if they have to defend a first-leg advantage. and with a home game for them in the first leg, Atletico Madrid will be pleased to be in a position to attack this match from the management of a lead which will make the second leg in his rival’s stadium, which can be even more threatening, seem a little bit easier, since all they will need to do is defend what they come up with in that first leg.

In the meantime, Real Sociedad vs. Athletic Bilbao – betting on a Real Sociedad victory here.

over at La Liga, the Celta vs. Osasuna fixture is live now, it’sgoing to the dying minutes at the time of this writing. Celta, who leveled at 1-1 in the firststhalf, have now turned the game around Osasuna 2-1. With onlyminutes left, I'm guessing the hosts will have to make do with their efforts and that they'll fall short of getting a point from this contest.

Real Madrid is not doing well this season you don't need to continue to defend their poor performance this season, their fans expected them to be better this session because of the players in the team and the change of manager but they are not in the first position in the league, they are going through the play off in the champions League they don't even have the hopecof winning the league due to the way they are playing they just have to win one trophy to prove me wrong because they can't have a good squad and not win a trophy in 2 season.

Real Madrid are actually doing badly and it Is not about expecting so much from them but they are real Madrid one of the biggest club in the world but it is about the fact that we did not expect this less from them.
Real Madrid may likely not win anything this season.
There is a problem and they have already changed two coaches in short period, to core Real Madrid fans they also believe that they are playing badly that's why they have been booing the players in some matches.

To be honest I prefer him on the left wing because he has speed and also has the ability to play the ball better so that he can load the attack on the wing, and meanwhile the center forward I need a striker who has a height much better than Mbappe like for example Benzema and Joselu it is a perfect blend for Real Madrid's attack line, Because I think we need to make good use of hull passes, if we're taller than the opposing team's defenders then it's going to be very difficult to play hull passes, but if we're evenly matched or winning we'll have more opportunities to attack, in addition to direct shots we can use hull passes to play headers.

With the kind of squad Real Madrid assembled, this is an average performance from them. Real Madrid should be doing better in the La Liga and Champions League, if they were doing well, they wouldn't be among the teams to compete in the play off. The performance we have seen from Real Madrid in most games has been worse than we expect. Mbappe as the highest goal scorer, does not have any significance to the club if they are not topping the table.

With the way you speak I can see that you are a hater of Real Madrid and there is no doubt. Keeping sentiment aside you are a Barcelona fan that is why you speak of such, so who will not say a penalty is not part of football or are you kidding me. I can only imagine, if you team need a win and it be as, it ended up with a penalty, I believe you will reject it for the draw or lose. Penalty is part of football and it is normal, but don't speak as if they are not good in playing football, is it not same real Madrid that knock out Barcelona in the first leg at home this season, so we can not say they are not playing well, just that they are not playing as expected and that is the honest truth.

They're a team with a big name and reputation, so it's fair to say that some fans have been disappointed with Madrid performances this season and may have been disappointed with their performances last season too, but the fact remains that they're not out of the running for the title, it may just be a little more difficult because sometimes their performances are unexpected, which means that stability is still an obstacle that needs to be overcome. There is certainly plenty of time for them to improve and return to being a team that can be trusted to win matches without a doubt.

The Negreira case, btw, another clown show by the league. Not a single piece of evidence has been brought forward in about 4 years of the case, yet the reputation of a club has been ruined. It's even insulting to the league to suggest that all it takes to bribe referees in the league is just about 400k for the whole year. This is also considering the fact that the person who receives the money is not a referee, meaning he has to share that money with whatever referer that officiates a Barcelona game.
The case is laughable.

Its no secret that Real Madrid is the favourite team in Spain, and Barcelona is seen as the rebellion, it's obviously in their history for anyone who cares to know. So there is also a bias against Barcelona. People will argue about this however they want, but it's there.

We saw how clubs in the league were protesting against Barcelona for registering Olmo and Pau Victor. This is a clubs that generate more money than every club in Europe aside from Real Madrid. Inter of the teams in the league to fightagainst the management of the league that is running the league, they fought against Barcelona for finding ways to register players. Now you have clubs like Sevilla, Sociedad, Betis, who can't even keep their good players. The good players are being shipped off to the EPL. A joke of a league.
Even in the UCL, we can see the effect of the foolish league president on the teams. They cant compete with the English teams.

The Negreiera case, for me, not only caused harm during those years when Barcelona dominated so much thanks to that enormous help, but it has also left its mark and a model for referees to follow today. So, I truly abhor corruption I come from a country where politicians are extremely corrupt, it makes you want to vomit, but corruption in sports is something that tarnishes it, it's something that should be punished severely with the full force of the law.

Roses are red, the sky is blue and Real Madrid kicked Ancelotti for nothing.

Could it be that you guys expected so much from them and as they are not flying high yet, a feeling of disappointment have taken over?

Everyone is expecting Real Madrid to perform as it used to be and not struggling to win games with a single goal difference. There are players who are out of their forms that need to be replaced..

The fact is that Real Madrid can still win the La Liga as well as the UEFA Champions League this season. They are just one point behind Barcelona which clearly shows that the league is not over. Secondly, they can qualify in the Champions League playoffs and go ahead to win the trophy.

I will not deny these possibilities. Real Madrid is not okay, neither are the other teams. If Barcelona fails a lot then Real Madrid can be a step forward to win La Liga. For UEFA Champions League, they make it a bit difficult but who knows?

How many matches does Real Madrid get rule in for penalty? You guys just spread propaganda for nothing, you just don't like Real Madrid and it's understandable. I know Xabi wasn't the best man for us but he did what he was doing in Leverkuen. If not that the expectations were high, he did just well. Even this new guy Abeloa will get better with time but I don't think they can do better than what they are doing now, but don't put eye on Real Madrid.

Barcelona are good, but they are shaky and not too better. A team that is topping the top of the league is ought to give high margin in points but what's the difference now? I don't just have confidence that they can flip this opportunity and win the League. A team that lose as they win rarely win the League, Real Madrid has lose and win, Barcelona is just the same but they are good at handling bad games to their own favour.

A team that has been struggling to win.
Every game is like a big team to them, and to the point we can not separate a big team from the small ones against real Madrid. Truly, things are terrible with this team, and we can not trust them again.

The real Madrid we know is not the one we are watching again, and to some extent we can not feel that excitement when you watch them play, this is what makes them looks boring to even watch. Most players that have been underperforming needed to be replaced if it will definitely help the team.

Youre so biased and ill informed its so funny to see. You don't care about corruption; you only care about whatever is against your rival club. Because if you cared about corruption, you would see all the shit that is going on in the league and how Madrid is the Spanish team and all the favouritism towards them.

The fact that you even say Barcelona dominated because of "help" tells me all I need to know. How can you watch the Barcelona of 2009 to 20015 and say they dominated because of help. And mind you this payment was going on in 2008 when they didn't win a single trophy. The Barcelona of the Pep era is arguably the best football team ever witness in football, they didn't need the help of referees to win.
If you cared, you could have read up on the case and understood it, but you don't, you just join the bandwagon.

This is a strange phenomenon actually, why is there a lot of speculation that Real Madrid has no hope, I studied it turns out that it was because the initial expectations were very high for Real Madrid, we know the beginning of this season has good players and can be said to be better than other teams from attackers, midfielders and also the back line, then we also saw Xabi Alonso become a coach who previously succeeded in making an unbeaten match at Bayer Leverkusen from there expectations were even higher, But in practice for half a season it turned out not as expected, Barcelona is still leading and also we can see in the champions league yesterday Real Madrid did not enter the top 8 and was forced to enter the Play-off qualifying round previously defeated by Benfica this loaded many people increasingly doubt Real Madrid this season will succeed, but for me personally we will get very satisfied results at the end of the season, just watch!

As one of their fans I expected better from Real Madrid right from when Mbappe was brought in to add to the squad but his coming has even made the Real Madrid team to become more worse in performance they finished last season trophyless and their season they have not given any sign that they will be winning the champions League because they are not doing better than some team in the competition likewise I nthe league Barcelona is above them in point, this is enough to make anyone that loves the team to get depressed because they are making a lot of fans feel so bad by not winning as they should.
