La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Tmoonz]

The one-point difference between Real Madrid and Barcelona makes the league even more exciting. Right now, everyone in the Spanish league is watching this fierce battle between Barcelona and Real Madrid, which will continue until the end of the season. Real Madrid also have a Champions League playoff match today. Barcelona, ​​on the other hand, finished in the top eight, securing direct qualification to the last 16 of the Champions League. At this stage, Barcelona seems to have the advantage.

Maybe Real Madrid played so poorly against Osasuna because they had a midweek match against Benfica, while Barcelona had time to prepare and rest. Real Madrid gave Barcelona a gift, and they should take it more seriously now. But on the other hand, there are many good teams in La Liga that are difficult to beat, and so I think Real and Barcelona will continue to drop points.

This is just the reality of it because at a point, both Real Madrid and Barcelona will face stubborn opponents that will cause them to lose some points and it will continue till the end of the season so it is difficult to say which of them will end up winning the La Liga title unless the season approaches the end. Though I think that Barcelona might be more advantageous in the sense that they have score plenty goals than Real Madrid so if situation occurs that they make a tie in points, Barcelona will emerge winners through goals difference. I don't think that Real Madrid performed so poorly against Osasuna because they tried to repel some of their attacks but Osasuna was lucky to have won the match.

It is clearly obvious that Real Madrid are not yet ready for that trophy otherwise how can they manage to get to the top of the Spanish la liga standings and they lost to an almost relegated team, like how can this be imagined? So left with me I'd say Barcelona should win the league again for the second time in a row, because i don't know what is really the problem of this Real Madrid team, in as much as i have always rooted in them to win this league this season i think at this point in time i'm being fedup of this kind of performance i think Barcelona should have it again for the second time.

I also had that trust and hope that Real Madrid would be able to get the La Liga trophy this season, but as things are going now, I don’t think that can be possible. All proof has shown that Barcelona will be dominant this season again. I thought Real Madrid would change it when they made it back to the top, but seeing them lose against Osasuna shocked me. I don’t even know how their game will be today against Benfica in the Champions League. Maybe they will end up losing again; we don’t know. Let’s just wait and see how the game will end up.

Barcelona at least got their chance back for a while, and winning the league is more needed by them than Real Madrid. While of course not winning the title for two years in a row is a bad thing for Real Madrid, they have the chance and ability to recover from that financially and do better this summer to try again next summer.

Problem with Barcelona is that last time they lost the title, they sold rights of their income for a next few years so that they could continue, losing hurts Barcelona a lot more, and financially until they are on their new stadium with 100% capacity and making insane amount of money from that, which they hope to, they are not going to be able to recover financially if they end up losing.

Barcelona are in good shape this season and if they can continue like this they can probably succeed in wining the league competition for the second term. Hansi Flick goals now is in the Champions League he really want to achieve that trophy to make him feel better as a coach. If you're performing very well and you've not win the Champions League you're still learning. Arsenal have been doing very good every season but Arteta as not get league title and Champions league for Arsenal, and other fans said he is not a good coach is not perfect for the team to win trophies. Let see this weekend if both madrid and Barcelona will win there next games in the league competition since madrid lost last week and they won't like to lose next time.

Kylian Mbappe should go and get the surgery done on his knees, so he can start performing very well. He should not manage the injury. He should get the knee surgery done so it won’t affect him in the future. We have players who were doing very well, but because they refused to get a proper treatment on an injury they had, it caused them to stop playing football, I know a lot of things would be lost, but it is better He go for the surgery now and get everything done properly and then come back, than for him to continue using that injury like that because surely it we have a bigger repercussion that may cause him to stop playing football.
His manager, father or anyone close to him should advise him to go for the surgery immediately and stop trying to use the injury like that.

Well I think there is still lots of games to play and a whole lot of things can still change because Barcelona themselves are not looking that well in terms of their performance and I won't be surprised if anything pops up again that will make them drop points although they looked alot stronger than Real Madrid but both teams are actively playing the champions league and can drop points due to many factors like fatigue and injuries too

It's understandable that Real Madrid hasn't been consistent, having previously fired their coach. Currently, Albeloa is in charge having only played a few games for Real Madrid. During Albeloa tenure, Real Madrid has only suffered one defeat in La Liga and you'd immediately say they're not ready for a trophy this season. This is of course a false statement.

The proof is that Real Madrid now trails Barcelona by only one point with a long La Liga campaign ahead. Anything can happen. Barcelona sometimes suffers the same fate as Real Madrid, losing to smaller teams like Girona and the same thing happened to Real Madrid when they lost to Osasuna. So, I think both Real Madrid and Barcelona have an equal chance of winning a trophy this season. Moreover, with the two teams still facing each other the upcoming El Clasico will undoubtedly be a deciding factor in who will be crowned champions.

Don't worry friends, the gap between them is still very small, only 1 point, Barcelona also still has its biggest weakness, which is defense, so Madrid still has the same chance as Barca at the moment and can still turn things around. After all, the big match (El Clásico) and the meeting with Atlético Madrid for both teams in the second round are still to come, and there it will be clear who the winner is for this season.

[Mindyspace]

I agree with you, and what you said makes sense. FC Barcelona really feels more pressure today, mainly because of their financial situation and the leverage they've used.

Real Madrid CF also hates not winning a title, but they have a more comfortable financial base to withstand a bad year. At the moment, losing weighs more heavily on Barça, unfortunately.

His manager, father or anyone close to him should advise him to go for the surgery immediately and stop trying to use the injury like that.

Real Madrid needs to pray so that the treated would work on Kylian Mbappe because the remaining chance real Madrid has in the trophy against Barcelona depends more on Kylian Mbappe so if he is going to be out of matches for a while, defeat will come on real Madrid because surgery is not something they would performed on him and we expect it to regain the moment after it without taking some time and definitely those times is something his performance on real Madrid would be missing. I understand what management of injury could cause but I'm sure of his seating back to heal first if the injury could affect him.

Aside of that they need to recover in the league. To end in their ussual 3º position 

With Barca and real Madrid dominating la liga, they can only finish third and that's actually good, especially now that Villarreal have a pretty good performance and that could even make Villarreal who will finish in third position at the end of the season. so if they can still finish third at the end of the season, they should be grateful for that.

[Callido]

We don't know what will happen because both Madrid and Barcelona are shaky, they are inconsistent and lose points where they should take on the advantage, who wins the La Liga trophy for this season is not something we can decide from the actual look of things, without being biased or based on love for one of them, both teams are capable of winning the title, any of them with the luck or choose to do better than the other with the limited fixtures remaining.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Barcelona will face levante tomorrow. If barcelona is not too unlucky, they will no t lose points in this match. Levante is the 19th team in the table and they have lost their last three matches in a row. Levante has the weakest defense in la liga. Barcelona should win this  match by at least  2 goals.

Barcelona's chances are very good, just like Real Madrid's Honestly, how Real Madrid lost to Osasuna was unbelievable. Real Madrid had everything to leave with a good lead, and what they did was lose. It's incredible what's happening to this team, I don't know what's wrong with them, It's like they play well because they want to , and they play badly just on a whim. I see it that way now.

Barcelona is at the top again, leading with just 1 point ahead of Real Madrid, seriously I don’t really need to say much about Barcelona but deep down my favourite club to win this title this season is Barcelona, given that we can’t really say much because they will need to continue winning match to secure their top position and give Real Madrid more gaps on the table.

let’s see what Barcelona will in the next match. They must keep their winning streak and consistency, to make this title of a thing workout this season.

Villareal wouldn't get a chance to get to the 3rd place if ATM wasn't busy getting distracted with other competitions to take there rightful place. Now ATM's biggest problem is the Copa Del Ray since they know fully well that they are not in the tittle race and the Champions League which they will soon be kicked out of, the gap isn't that big and ATM might end up taking there place.

The one-point difference between Real Madrid and Barcelona makes the league even more exciting. Right now, everyone in the Spanish league is watching this fierce battle between Barcelona and Real Madrid, which will continue until the end of the season. Real Madrid also have a Champions League playoff match today. Barcelona, ​​on the other hand, finished in the top eight, securing direct qualification to the last 16 of the Champions League. At this stage, Barcelona seems to have the advantage.

Yes, the race for the La Liga title is getting fiercer as the points gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid is very thin. Even the top spot in the standings has the potential to change every week depending on the results of their matches. Schedule-wise, Barcelona has the advantage because their players have plenty of rest. Meanwhile, Real Madrid has a busy schedule due to their Champions League playoff fight, which could impact their performance in La Liga because Real Madrid players don't have enough time to rest. Now, Arbeloa faces a tough task in dealing with the pressure and facing a busy schedule: on one hand, he must qualify Real Madrid for the Champions League round of 16, while on the other, he must keep stick tight near on Barcelona in the standings in the race for the La Liga title.

But they won the Clásico in October. And in Spanish football that matters more than folks think because if they end up with the same number of points at the end of the season. That result is essentially the tiebreaker. So this 1-point lead that Barcelona has isn't even a 1-point lead.

And no one is talking about Vinicius either. The guy was goalless for like sixteen games the last stretch during Alonso. Now he's suddenly alive again, pressing, scoring, looking like himself. Something shifted. Maybe Arbeloa actually does do something right in the way he deals with the attacking players, who knows.

Barca have been brilliant, I won't pretend otherwise But they've been a bit lucky too. Their actual numbers indicate that they should have lost more points than they have. The finishing have been elite but unsustainable at this level.

If Madrid can get through the Benfica second leg (without retaining anyone else) and if Mbappe is back for the run in... This goes to Camp Nou in May. Matchday 35. Arbeloa sets up deep, runs Madrid on the counter, exactly same system that won them the first Clasico.

And then we'll see whether Flick has an answer.

[Rustam Meraj]

let’s see what Barcelona will in the next match. They must keep their winning streak and consistency, to make this title of a thing workout this season.

Recent success of Barcelona is driven by its steadiness and personal skill, such as combined 22 league goals of Ferran Torres and Robert Lewandowski, despite chasing Real Madrid Kylian Mbappe who leads league with 23 goals. I think Barcelona has mental edge because of recent coach change of Real Madrid to Alvaro Arbeloa, however, following weeks, including Copa del Rey semi final, will be time when their mental readiness will be most tested. Injury news is now hopeful, Pedri is now back playing, and Marcus Rashford is back out of his knee injury, even if slowly, after his long healing, and he is not likely to play in this weekend title making game against Villarreal.

Yes, if we talk about finances, it is clear that Real Madrid is superior to Barcelona. So that's why I also agree that Barcelona currently needs to be the champion in La Liga more than Real Madrid. But even so, Real Madrid will clearly not be silent and even though Barcelona's current situation has not fully recovered financially, Real Madrid clearly will not care about it, because the most important thing is they can win. But even so, Real Madrid currently does not seem to have high hopes of becoming champions.

Because even though the current points difference between Real Madrid and Barcelona can be said to be small, but still Barcelona currently looks stronger and more capable of becoming champions. And besides, you are right that in the coming summer, Real Madrid can bring in other better players, but I don't think it will be easy, because the team management clearly has to think about the budget carefully, because currently the existing players also have quite large salaries. So if Madrid make a wrong move by buying new players, the results could be bad in the long term. So because of that, real mardid clearly has to be careful.

[8rch7]

Glad to see the La Liga teams qualified to knock round of Champion League and last night Real Madrid follow Barcelona and Atletico Madrid already qualifying before, not really bad for La Liga has three teams participants in Champion League this season and Villareal the only one team failed reach the higher standings in phase league round and must eliminated early. Last night Madrid success defeating Benfica and overall win aggregate 3-1 for qualifying to the next round.

Now Madrid fully focus for domestic league match, next game Real Madrid will play at Bernabeu against Getafe but in this week Barcelona will play early against Villareal at their home. Will Madrid has opportunity back to top position again and wish Villareal can secure three or one points at Camp Nou Stadium?

[alankasman]

But even so, Real Madrid currently does not seem to have high hopes of becoming champions.

Speaking of finances I certainly agree with what you said because currently Real Madrid is one of the teams with quite strong or stable finances so this also makes it easy for them to buy ready-made players at any price and this has happened often. I want to start with Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaka, Bale, and also many other ready-made players who they bought meaning this indicates their financial strength is quite stable. For Barcelona ​​​​they indeed orbit players from their own academy. This is because their finances are certainly not enough or not yet stable enough to make the purchases of players needed by the coaching team. Indeed currently Barcelona's intention to win the La Liga competition is their dream, but Real Madrid is more than Barcelona wants, so whatever is still done by Real Madrid both players and coaches in determining strategy during the matches that will be played by Real Madrid.

Because even though the current points difference between Real Madrid and Barcelona can be said to be small, but still Barcelona currently looks stronger and more capable of becoming champions. And besides, you are right that in the coming summer, Real Madrid can bring in other better players, but I don't think it will be easy, because the team management clearly has to think about the budget carefully, because currently the existing players also have quite large salaries. So if Madrid make a wrong move by buying new players, the results could be bad in the long term. So because of that, real mardid clearly has to be careful.

Indeed, that is your prediction and you are very confident about Barcelona becoming champions this season and I think you are one of the Barcelona supporters I think. Heheheheh.
But it doesn't matter because every supporter must choose the team they support but currently I think anything can still happen considering that yesterday Real Madrid shifted Barcelona's position even though it was only for a short time because of the results that Real Madrid achieved when visiting Osasuna's headquarters which ended in defeat for Real Madrid so that Barcelona returned to the top. This is a warning for both parties that it is clear that with the rest of this competition anything can still happen and for both teams now they only need to focus on each match they play.

[bitgolden]

Real Madrid losing to Osasuna wasn't on the plans, they did not consider that game to be this tough and expected lesser amount of resistance from Osasuna, between UCL games it's always harder to win games and many teams that won their UCL games (and even lost their UCL games) ended up losing points during the weekend at league.

Now they are going to face Benfica, which should be an easier game of course but I am sensing that it is not going to be easy neither, we will probably see a close win from Real Madrid.
