La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Chilwell]

Actually, barcelonna had a good chance to score against girona, but because the Barcelona players couldn't capitalize on their chances, Barcelona couldn't win against Girona. In this match, I was also disappointed because Yamal couldn't convert his penalty kick. If Yamal had executed the penalty well, there would have been a potential draw. Now, Real Madrid must be happy to see Barcelona lose to Girona because they are now in a lower position.

Barca had all the opportunity to turn things around and they wasted it, this was a match everyone will be confident they will win without stress, because Real Madrid is breathing down their neck so dropping points at this critical moment was not even an option!! But somehow they ended up disappointing, in fact the first half display was horrible and Yamal penalty miss just demoralized veryone because if he had scored then I believe the game would have taken a different turn in their favor.

I deliberately ignore this match because I believe Barcelona will do very well which I was against their Victory, that is why I did not put much attention especially their opponent girona, girona has not been performing well that was why I was so confident for Barcelona's Victory, but unfortunately girona succeeded in proving me wrong. Yesterday was a big shocked for Barcelona because they never saw it coming, i had some of their fans shouting that real Madrid would just be given two days on the top but now the reverse is the case. Girona as rise the hope of Real Madrid and with the way things are going now real Madrid will try their own best to fight back this time around.

Girona really did it… I don’t think many people believed they could. Yesterday felt like a final, not just a normal La Liga game. Personally, I enjoyed watching it. And congrats to Real Madrid too (and the supporters). There’s no need to look for referee misjudgments, as I believe Girona deserved this win more than Barcelona.

Girona played much more effectively and rightly, as you said, if Girona deserves to win this match. On the other hand, Barcelona could not show their best performance, and the problem that Barcelona often faces currently is that once they suffer a loss, it seems difficult for the team to recover. They suffered a humiliating defeat from Atletico Madrid and then lost again to Girona. So, the problem Barcelona is experiencing is their poor mentality.

Barcelona lost this game sadly, even with the red card Girona got, Barcelona could not get an equaliser to get them to sharing points in this game, maybe their era for decline is come already and they just have to battle it like Madrid did earlier this season, actually not too long ago. It is really interesting to see and say that it was a deserving win for Girona and not like they were lucky or the day was just in their favour, they did that which was required of them and they actually did played to be deserving of the win.

[JeffBrad12]

The thing that really helps Madrid is not Girona's performance, but Flick's stubbornes. He still forces his team to play high line defensive. It's bad when we are all know his tactic already fully exposed. So it was a terrible idea. It gets worsen with all of their main team very exhausted caused by they played non stop for a month.
It created chain effect to their squad. it's started with lack of communication, lack of focus to man marking Girona's attackers, and so many blunders.

At this point, the only solution is to stop using the highline. Enough is enough we saw them used the highline, which often failed when it came to the important game. It's obviously such strategy was not comfortable for their defenders.
If they're keen to keep use this kind of strategy until the next season. They have to invest in the quality backline. Relying upon the kids to play high-line is a terrible combo.

I wouldn’t rush to say that Barcelona are entering some kind of crisis. They actually played better than Girona yesterday the ball just didn’t want to go in. They hit the post several times and even missed a penalty. If you look at the statistics, it’s clear that Barcelona dominated the entire game. As for the red card shown to Roca in the 99th minute, it didn’t really affect anything at that point.

[1kodumtek7]

What a disappointing performance by Barcelona... They just couldn't take control of the match in the way they wanted. Don't look at ball possession stats if you didn't watch. Girona found so many big chances to score.

I guess Barcelona couldn't focus on this match good enough after being destroyed in the Copa del Rey. But this has cost them the lead in the standings.

Barcelona lost this game sadly, even with the red card Girona got

Did you see in which minute the red card was given? It was 90'+9. So there wasn't any time left after it. 

[Rockson1]

The fact is that Barcelona is dropping form if not, why will they lose two consecutive crucial matches. It seems that the Laliga clubs have understood Flick game pattern which is the reason why nothing worked out for them in their last two games. However, it was really an unlucky match for them because a few shots hit the wood work which denied them from scoring. Real Madrid has been given the opportunity to win the title.

They are really getting down in form, sincerely I never had in mind that Barcelona will  lose to Girona with a complete team and even if it should be short one I will not still believe it, the had all the possession, I can not say what there problem was in that match, the more I reflect on that match, the more confused I get because I do not see any reason why Barcelona could not close up those gaps between them and Realmadrid by winning such match that would have been an easy match for them to win, however, I do not agree with what you said about Realmadrid been granted the chance to win the Spanish laliga competition, do not forget that both teams form is not steady, so anything is still possible.

I had a feeling that this is how this game is going to end because Barcelona can be careless most times and that is why when some people were making it look like Barcelona is the best and they are not because they have been struggling and that is why they could not win Girona I just had that feeling that winning yesterday's game is not something they could have been able to do, and a lot of people were shock to see how Barcelona lost to Girona yesterday and it is not just real Madrid.

I actually saw this coming and it's a good thing that it ended like this and for some time now Barcelona have been getting different hit and we don't know exactly what is wrong with them or is it because of what happened to them the last time, they should be able to win, but since they could not win they were finding it very had to win yesterday it was a lot of struggle for Barcelona I was surprised the way it turned out.

[Volgastallion]

Very strange loses Barcelona is taking, i dont know what really happen with them but with the last big loss from Copa del REy against Atletico Madrid which made them being basically out of competition and plus this last defeat against Girona for Laliga put them in a very bad position in the fight for the tournament, i know still a long way ahead but they need to wake up fast, before is too late.

[Roseline492]

Barcelona's defense was a weak point, leading to their defeat to Girona. Barcelona's defenders performed poorly, conceding too easily. Furthermore, their finishing was also a problem in converting chances into goals. This defeat was a bitter blow for Barcelona, ​​as they were knocked off the top of the table and trail Real Madrid by two points. Hansi Flick must immediately improve his defense if he wants to win the La Liga title this season.

The La Liga title race is getting tighter and more exciting, with Real Madrid and Barcelona separated by just two points. The season is still long, and anything can happen. Barcelona and Real Madrid will now fight hard to win the title, making every remaining match crucial and collecting as many points as possible.

There defense didn't understand that when one of them has already failed to keep off offside the rest will have to fall back fully but since they didn't fall back and since the goalkeeper has attempted and no way, Thomas Lemar gain an opportunity that no players could ever missed the opportunity he got. Girona second goal could have even started on the chance they got few minutes of there first goal because after they faces a very tensed defending from Barcelona they still score but since goalkeeper was pushed while attempting saving the referee canceled it for Girona.

I'd say Girona did this for Madrid because other teams have been playing Barcelona and still no better result but last night Girona made good use of those crazy openings from that high line to get their goals. Barcelona have been playing with fire since they started using this high line in every game and my annoyance is that it has not given to them goals to win every games they play instead is the opposite, goals do fly into their post more than they could ever imagine, who's advising this manager Flick? He has been seeing how desperately poor his boys are operating but yet he choose to continue with a style that have been causing problems for his team, what a manager and if he loses this title is his fault.
For me there's nothing productive about this strategy they're using and even if they get new defenders it won't still change anything for the team. Barcelona have never had defenders who  have speed to chase the ball and this isn't their pattern, they are only good at playing a flexible football not the type you'd start stressing the defenders right from the beginning of the game to the end, Flick should have a rethink of this plan.

[Razmirraz]

Snip.

Barcelona lost this game sadly, even with the red card Girona got, Barcelona could not get an equaliser to get them to sharing points in this game, maybe their era for decline is come already and they just have to battle it like Madrid did earlier this season, actually not too long ago. It is really interesting to see and say that it was a deserving win for Girona and not like they were lucky or the day was just in their favour, they did that which was required of them and they actually did played to be deserving of the win.

In just five days, Barcelona suffered a very painful defeat, they are in danger of being eliminated from the CDR and losing the top of the standings after losing to Girona. Barcelona season was getting more difficult after those two defeats, although they still had a chance in those two competitions, but now the situation has changed drastically for Barcelona fans. Goals from Thomas Lemar and Fran Beltrán sparked joy at the Montilivi Stadium and left Barcelona fans speechless with disappointed expressions, now Barcelona must fight again to reclaim first place from Real Madrid, only consistency in every match can help them return to the top of the table.

Barcelona's situation reminds me of Real Madrid's situation a few days ago. Real Madrid is currently going through a bit of a consistent position and is performing well. Barcelona tried hard to win this match and they attacked very well, maybe luck was not on Barcelona's side that's why they faced such a result. However, Barcelona has had such a bad performance in several matches that if they are not able to handle their situation very quickly, they might be knocked out of winning the trophy this season. Very, very sad, these comments we said to Real Madrid a few days ago and now we have to say to Barcelona

[pewboy]

Moreover, with their win over Barcelona in the Cup, they have almost secured a place in the final. So this looks more like a strategic move from Simeone rather than a sign that everything is going wrong.

Atlético Madrid is doing everything it can to be able to recover the matches. It is clear that these are matches that are easier than usual, clearly there are matches that are better than others and easier, but these are by far the easiest if we think about the difficulty of the next matches which will be increasingly demanding with increasingly stronger opponents.

[Frankolala]

The fact is that Barcelona is dropping form if not, why will they lose two consecutive crucial matches. It seems that the Laliga clubs have understood Flick game pattern which is the reason why nothing worked out for them in their last two games. However, it was really an unlucky match for them because a few shots hit the wood work which denied them from scoring. Real Madrid has been given the opportunity to win the title.

The Main reason Barca is losing and lost now is their Inability to convert their chances and their Defensive Stubbornness, even though they dominated in the first half, lamine's miss was a huge psychological blow that kept Girona in the game. IF you don't convert your chances then no matter the team you are playing against it will a find a way to thrash you.

After Cubarsi scored, Barca should have locked things down and focused more on defense but No, they started losing focus from then on and Girona equalized just after a few minutes. And by the time Beltran had scored Barcas midfield was exhausted. I think this game was just a "hangover" from the last game and Girona won against an empty Barca team.

I don't believe that it was an empty Barca team because all their key players was in that match. Lewandowski came into the field to see if he can score but luck wasn't on his side. You should know that Barcelona cannot play a defensive game. Their pattern of game is to attack and dominate possession. Don't be surprised that Barcelona will still lose more matches.

[KTChampions]

The statistics of the last games hardly mean anything when you remember how quickly Girona fell from the level of a Champions League team (3rd place in the 23-24 season) to the level of a team fighting for survival. They are now clear underdogs and bookmakers see the upcoming game as follows:

6.40 - 5.10 - 1.38

After the defeat by Atletico, Barcelona might even have increased motivation and win big.

You should get the Jackpot, right? but unfortunately you are not even sure about Girona. This is football if we remember the phrase "The ball is round" then we will always remember that in football anything can happen, even if the opponent does not have good statistics.

This time Girona proved that. I'm quite happy for Barcelona's defeat, because Real Madrid valiantly didn't slip in the standings.

How was I supposed to get the jackpot? I didn't think that Barcelona would fail twice in a row, on the contrary, I thought that a fluctuation here was possible in Barcelona's favor in the form of a major victory. But believe me, I’m also happy, because I support Real Madrid and it’s nice to see that even before the personal meeting the situation has become what it should be.
By the way, it's funny that Flick (and some others like Rafinha, etc.) are complaining about the referee again. They changed their position 180 degrees haha.

Something fundamental is wrong with the Barcelonia team. They are currently going from bad to worse and it seems Hansi Flick doesn't have a solution to this decline in performance. Barca's coach was complaining that Claudio Echeverri fouled Jules Koundé during the build-up of the winning goal. I am wondering why he would be complaining when his side has all the time to beat Girona. Losing the first position to Real Madrid is dissapointing and I doubt if they will reclaim the top spot with this poor display.  

[harapan]

It was truly disappointing for Barcelona to lose to a team like Girona. What disappointed me about this match was that Barcelona played with their first team, arguably their best fighting force, but strangely, they lost this match. So,, with this, I personally became a little pessimistic about Barcelona. They lost their last two matches, and we can't deny that this was due to Barcelona's poor performance.

So,, I don't know what caused Barcelona's performance like this. Even in this match, Raphinha, a player who is often considered the key to Barcelona's victory, also played. But it turned out to have no effect at all, because Barcelona still lost by doing quite well in this match. So, this is truly beyond reason, and I think Barcelona needs to make significant improvements now. Because currently, their position has shifted to second place, and I think that is a bad thing for them.

Image source: Google

Considering the good results they have produced against Girona in the past, this should be one of those games you call shameful.

They have officially given Real Madrid the chance to win La Liga. This was not a lose we expected not even with these players not injured.
Real Madrid players will be extra motivated to keep hold of that position since the tides are changing.

[Marykeller]

I deliberately ignore this match because I believe Barcelona will do very well which I was against their Victory, that is why I did not put much attention especially their opponent girona, girona has not been performing well that was why I was so confident for Barcelona's Victory, but unfortunately girona succeeded in proving me wrong. Yesterday was a big shocked for Barcelona because they never saw it coming, i had some of their fans shouting that real Madrid would just be given two days on the top but now the reverse is the case. Girona as rise the hope of Real Madrid and with the way things are going now real Madrid will try their own best to fight back this time around.

Let's just see how the remaining matches of the season will be for Real Madrid and Barcelona. Whether Real Madrid will stay at the top of the table for long or if Barcelona will reclaim the lead from them. We will all gonna see to that before the end of the season, and the shocking surprises that will follow because I am sure we will witness a whole lot unfolding that we never thought could happen in the fight for the Laliga trophy between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

[Ahli38]

What a disappointing performance by Barcelona... They just couldn't take control of the match in the way they wanted. Don't look at ball possession stats if you didn't watch. Girona found so many big chances to score.

Barcelona's performance was not only disappointing but also very disappointing. Barcelona actually had superior ball possession against Girona. But in terms of attack Barcelona was very poor compared to Girona. Girona had around 9 shots on target, where some of them were big chances. And Girona managed to capitalize on several opportunities from their various attacks on Barcelona. As for Barcelona they looked very poor in attack, where they only had 4 shots on target and even only 1 chance that they managed to convert into a goal. I personally feel that Barcelona's problem in this match was their defense, where it was easily penetrated by Girona's players. And Barcelona's poor performance in creating chances or even converting a chance. I think Barcelona could have equalized if they had converted the penalty into a goal. Lamine Yamal unfortunately failed to do so. If Lewandowski had been in the starting lineup I think he would have been a good penalty taker by given his excellent conversion rate inside the penalty box. In any case this result allowed Real Madrid to take Barcelona's place at the top of the table. And I'm sure Barcelona won't let their position be taken so easily. It looks like the next match will be very interesting seeing these two giant teams fighting for position.

[Olatundespo]

Girona really did it… I don’t think many people believed they could. Yesterday felt like a final, not just a normal La Liga game. Personally, I enjoyed watching it.

The match was a very good match for Girona to win. Barcelona had a penalty but Yamal could not use it properly. The bad luck started from there for Barcelona. After that, they missed several scoring chances and I would say that Barca's performance was not good. Perhaps they started their bad time. It could be like that and we have seen Barcelona not perform well before but they came back in the next match with an impressive performance.

A player from Girona got a red card at the very end of the match but it did not affect the result of the match. It was surprising that Barcelona could not increase the pace of attack after being behind by one goal. Girona increased the strength of their defence after being ahead by one goal so it was not easy for Barca to score but losing at this stage of the tournament would be a bad situation for them because now Real Madrid have a favorable position.
