La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2025/26

[Ahli38]

Atletico Madrid is nowhere near what Arsenal has done. Arsenal gave us the impression of winning the league soon as they came close to the title 4 consecutive times by finishing in the second place. When they won the Premier League, it wasnt a surprise. For that of Atletico Madrid, it will be a surprise because they have not shown any signs of fighting for the league title.

I agree with you. Arsenal have performed well over the past few seasons. Finished the season in second place in the table 3 times in a row. And in the last season they became champions.

On the other hand, Atletico Madrid's squad is strong. But they cannot compete hard for the title. They are strong early in the season. Gradually we see their performance deteriorating. Every season we see the same scenario. Besides, Real Madrid and Barcelona are always stronger than Atletico Madrid. Competing with these two renowned clubs to win the title is very difficult for Atletico.

Atletico Madrid has little chance of competing fiercely in La Liga. And they have to compete against two giants like Real Madrid or even Barcelona. As for Real Madrid they are the wealthiest team compared to Atletico Madrid. And they are able to sign high-quality players who can deliver their best performances to compete against other teams. Barcelona is reportedly the second-highest-valued team after Real Madrid. And there is no Atlético Madrid as several teams with high valuations are ranked in the top ten according to Forbes (Source). So I personally believe that Atlético Madrid will have a very hard time competing head-to-head against these two giants in La Liga. And I think they might be able to win the title if those two giants face serious problems that could lower their performance thereby giving Atlético Madrid that opportunity.

I dont want to be there for the first game between Real Madrid and Barcelona, i mean Hansi Flick can destroy Real Madrid really bad when they face, Mourinho way of play seems too old right now and despite having high level players in his team Barcelona also have them and have a much more solid and well trained way of play, the flow is complete diferent, one is old and slow and the other is new and fast.

Yes, we shouldn't underestimate Real Madrid right now. While it's true that Barcelona clearly has excellent and solid players,, we shouldn't forget that Real Madrid also has a fighting spirit that seems very high. But honestly, I also feel that Barcelona has the potential to reign supreme in La Liga again next season. Barcelona already has a very mature squad. Meanwhile, Real Madrid is still in the process, and we don't know for sure whether the process will be successful or not.

Even though Real Madrid is currently managed by Mourinho, I believe that doesn't guarantee strong performances. The fundamental problem at Real Madrid is clearly the players' egos, which are difficult to control. Therefore, I believe this issue must be addressed first, because if it isn't addressed, I believe Real Madrid won't be able to improve.

[moneystery]

I'm not sure about Atletico Madrid. At least in the near future... I know that they won the La Liga title in 2014 and 2021. However that's the case actually. They just need to get lucky about Barcelona and Real Madrid.

...

Atletico Madrid will only be able to win the La Liga trophy when Real Madrid and Barcelona are having a difficult season. Without it, they'll likely be stuck in third place or below.
Meanwhile, Barcelona and Real Madrid are currently competing for major trophies, and I don't think this will be a bad season for either club, considering they've already spent heavily on strengthening their respective squads.
So, realistically, Atletico Madrid's chances of winning the La Liga trophy aren't that great, unless either Real Madrid or Barcelona experiences a significant decline in performance, allowing them to capitalize on the situation.

And  do you think both clubs are going to have a bad season the same time, even if something like that wants to happen it will happen to only one club at a time because the fact that people are even under estimating Atletico Madrid very much understandable because Barcelona and real Madrid can not be underestimated because even when does guys are not in form they are still performing well just because of the kind of players that they have and that is why am always emphasizing about players when it comes to football the only thing that can give you good results will be good players and that is what Barcelona and real Madrid don't lack.

The truth about all this is that they can actually win but damn it does not look like something that will be happy any time soon because the way Barcelona and real Madrid have dominated that league makes it difficult for every other clubs just to win because it not only real Madrid and Barcelona that we have in the la Liga but it has always been them so Atletico Madrid will have to work really hard for them to win the title.

[cande86]

I must say that Real Madrid is more closer to winning La Liga than any other club's since they have been a time title holder before and what have stop them from taking the La Liga title this season was because of a few limitations that the club is currently working on resolving and if that is done like the previous dressing room crisis and signing of few player's the club's will return back to the top in both La Liga and championship this season.

Real Madrid will return to win the championship I'm more than convinced, they have a very strong team my only doubt is Cucurella who i don't think is an important player and for Real Madrid however if Mourinho is happy he will surely know what to do with him and where to put him, he practically decided the signings.

[wakier]

So far, everything is going as planned. Real Madrid is becoming a stronger team with some great transfers. Looking at the players, they are of Real Madrid's caliber. The defense is now stronger. I think they made a very good transfer with Cucurella. They had a lot of deficiencies in that area, and they brought in perhaps one of the best players in the world.

With the many transfers they have made, Real Madrid should have become a strong team again and be able to compete for the La Liga and Champions League titles, but this is still uncertain because the many changes may not be in accordance with Mourinho coaching system. I remember when Real Madrid just brought in Mbappe, everyone thought Real Madrid performance would be very strong that season, but in reality, it was not enough, they needed the right strategy and game, I hope Real Madrid doesn't repeat the same mistake.

Real Madrid have been going through a rough patch since the beginning of last season. This may be due to their internal problems and even changing managers, they have not been able to solve the problem. As you said, the players lack a coordinated effort due to the egos that are active among them. Taking advantage of this weakness of Real Madrid, Barcelona has won the La Liga trophy in the last two seasons. But I believe that Barcelona will not be able to maintain their consistency long. Real Madrid will continue to try their best to maintain their dominance in every tournament next season with a full-strength team. Real Madrid's newly appointed manager Mourinho is experienced and has the ability to control his big players. I think he is the most suitable manager for Real Madrid considering the overall condition of the team.

This is all blabla. First of all the rumors about Mourinho going back to Real Madrid are so old that I think he has been involved in planning transfers for much longer than the public knows. The second important point to mention here is that Real Madrid can facilitate as many transfers as they want, nothing automatically means that they will have a stronger squad than Barcelona. Real Madrid has Mbappe, Barcelona has Yamal, and every player that comes after them literally is where the competition begins. Both have their superstars, but Raphinha is no worse than Vinicius Junior. Both teams have great coaches and I think the devil is in the details now.

Which team is able to organize additions to the team that make it tangibly stronger? Mourinho knows how to put together a team and Flick knows it. I personally think that Barcelona is still one step ahead because when you see how Mbappe plays at the World Cup, everything lines perfectly up for him because he has every player around him that he needs to enfold his highest potential. It is not the same when he plays for Real Madrid.

It's true as you said and we can see that since long ago and I think the biggest reason is because financially the Atletico Madrid team is not on par with Barcelona and also Real Madrid so it is difficult for Atletico Madrid to compete with the two Spanish giants, so being a shadow and taking opportunities is good for Atletico Madrid and I also believe that there is a chance for them if they consistently do that but now that is sometimes not possible because Atletico Madrid also experiences the same cycle as other teams, sometimes good and sometimes down.

sometimes very good transfers don't automatically make you the best team in the world, we have to see even if these players play well together, they don't always succeed and manage to do everything they set out to do, this is something they have to see in the path they take.

It looks like you are ignoring the fact that Atlético Madrid actually won the league title twice against peak Messi and Barcelona and Ronaldo and Real Madrid, and yet you are highlighting Arsenal coming second.

I am not downplaying what Arsenal did and how they performed, and coming second is not that bad, but Atlético Madrid has proven themselves and they have won, not just given the impression of winning.

I don't think that would be the case in this new and improving Real Madrid, did u guys see that Cucurella plays, damn. This squad is suppose to excel. I don't even think at this point Mourinho needs to do much, the biggest challenge is how to make this people play along and then it will all work out. Imagine they now get to sign Olise, that would just be the end.

I don’t know why Atletico Madrid keep spending money every season to buy players because they are not competing for any trophies, the reason why i said that is because they are not winning any trophy even when they sign players, they have good players that can win trophies for them but they don’t have a good coach, let forget about what Simeone has done for the club as a player what has he done for the club as a coach? He has not do anything special for them and he is the coach with the highest paid in football.

If Simeone did not leave the club Atletico Madrid will never win what they want to win, Simeone only has one pattern of playing and that is what they have been using for many years and when they meet any top opponents they get defeated, I don’t know what the club is still doing with him, he is the reason why Alvarez want to leave the club because they have the opportunity to win a trophy last season and they allow Real Sociedad to defeat them.

Real Madrid did not end the season with a bad performance,  they were not in good form. Barcelona who ended the season with a solid performance and the champions will still continue with their good performance and even win the La liga trophy.

I predicted this just as you did,  which is too early to even think of doing, We need to see Real Madrid performance before anything, we have not know how they will perform, Mounrinho may need more before he can deliver.

Truly the biggest work Mourinho may have to do will be with how he gets to harmonise these players to the point that they all build that chemistry for a perfect blend of team work,  individual they have proven to have that brilliance,  so a perfect blend of them all put together is the missing puzzle here. If Mourinho gets that done, the rest will be history,  and discipline is one thing that will help them a lot fix that.

Modern football is not about signing all the world bests to a single team, Mourinho knows this, and he'd try his best in getting his best men, Mbappe, and Vini, to work together in the pitch, which is the only skill that matters right now in the current stage of football. Talent wise, Madrid is in a good shape, and has a solid manager who can get them to reach any length in major leagues, but when the desire to win is missing out, and arguments keep happening in the dressing room, then emotionally they'll be losing, and it'll appear in the pitch physically, thereby, resulting to a terrible outcome from the boys compared to the high expectation from everyone who thinks of Madrid as untouchable.

[giorgione]

I don't think Mourinho winning the Spanish La Liga in his first season after he rejoined Real Madrid will be a surprise. He's a seasoned manager that has all it takes to win any league in the world and considering the quality of players and depth in the Real Madrid squad, I think he should even win more than La Liga title next season.

I think he's aware that Florentino Perez brought him to the club for instant impact, he's aware he doesn't have any reason not to win so he'll go all out for it.

I, however, believe that with him on the bench, Real Madrid will change everything they have done up until now, in fact Mourinho is the only one who can manage this team, no one else can be tough on the players and make them do what he says, especially if you have the best in the team and you have no experience, instead Mourinho can.

If Atletico Madrid thinks that there will come a time when Real Madrid and Barcelona will face severe problems that will cause them to drop drastically in performance, then they must be dreaming because such thing is not going to happen. Imagine despite that Barcelona faced financial constraints in recent years yet they won the La Liga back-to-back even with limited players. Real Madrid on the other hand has been out of the news for 2 seasons because they could not take a trophy home, but next season will be different for them. Atletico Madrid's possibility of winning the La Liga again will be reckon on strengthening their squad, though i don't know their financial strength but it seems like the club's management are not ready to invest in the team so their only achievement will be about appearing in the UCL every season while Real Madrid and Barcelona will continue to compete for the La Liga title race.

I believe in what you said about Real Madrid, they are capable of winning the league next season even though Barcelona is still strong and look like they might also win it this season again but with the squad that Real Madrid have now after making some signings before the World Cup i am very confident that they will definitely fight next season and win a trophy, Real Madrid have never have a complete squad since last two seasons and now that they have almost two players in each position they will have a good performance, Jose Mourinho coming to Real Madrid is going to unlock some players because we all know what he did when he coached the team before.

I don't think that, Atletico Madrid is ready for a fierce competition with Barcelona and Real Madrid for the title because they know it is gin be a waste of time since these two teams have all it takes to rotate the trophy within themselves.

Barcelona can be having some challenges in their performance but Real Madrid wouldn't have and that's why you see that Barcelona is winning the title in recent seasons due to the challenges Real Madrid is facing. Both clubs cannot perform poorly in the same season to the point that Atletico will overtake them and win the league.
