La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2026/27

[Obulis]

Betis vs Real Madrid will take place today, with Madrid and Betis conditions that I think can both surprise. Betis are not an easy team to beat so this time Madrid seem to have to work harder.
What are your predictions for this fight? I personally both teams will score.

Real Madrid have been winning matches this season , but this match can be a tough one for them because betis have enough attacking quality and this is their home.

Personally, I think Madrid will win the match but it will not be a comfortable game, betis have also had good records against them at home, So I would not be surprised if they make them work for the 3 points. My prediction will be Real Madrid 3-2 betis with both teams scoring.

Madrid ended up losing the match to betis leaving them and betis on the same point (9 point) on four matches played and Madrid coming second based on goal difference and betis third. The margin between Madrid and betis is so close but I believe the gap will be very wide anytime soon for runner-up first of all. Barcelona will definitely win todays match ( fourth match) but without thinking twice, they actually have Madrid to drag the champion with as the season moves.

Atletico Madrid lost badly against Atletico Club, losing 3-0 has left them very embarrassed. Whereas Atletico Madrid team is in strong form in La Liga especially competing with the top two teams Real Madrid and Barcelona. But no one expected their performance against Atletico Madrid and the team had to lose points with an unexpected result. There was a lot of competition between the two teams and there was a lot of attack but Atletico Madrid team failed to stop the ball in the opponent's goal post despite attacking enough. However, Atletico Madrid should have played the match with their good players and collected important points at the moment. However, I think they will take a good step for the next match, since the team is going to face Liverpool in the Champions League next, so they rested their good players. However, I think Atletico Madrid is a strong team and they will come back in the next matches.

Atletico Madrid way of playing is what I don't always understand, in a moment you will see them perform exceptionally and the next moment you will see them underperform. Over time or years now I have seen and known them to have a high level is inconsistency and I always make sure to avoid them while making my prediction even though they are playing the smallest team I won't touch them. So what happened to them was not unexpected to me it was what happened to real Madrid that was shocking to me.

You have said exactly what I think. Sometimes Atletico Madrid's style of play makes them seem like a very good team and sometimes their performance disappoints the fans. In the last 2024/25 season, the team reached the top of the Spanish league several times. The team was competing with Real Madrid and Barcelona to reach the top but could not maintain that good level due to poor form in the following matches. The team did not do well overall last season. I am expressing disappointment with the team in the result of the last match because Athletic Bilbao was not that strong but won 3-0 which was an impressive result for them. The result of the Atletico Madrid team may surprise anyone as I did not even imagine the team losing.

After the departure of Kroos and Modric Real Madrid never get succeeded in league competition even though they brought so many great players or even coach too but still there is nothing seems good. This is the reason why I told here that Real Madrid will never ever get succeeded whether their coach is Jose Morhino or Carlos Angelotti or even Zizzo.

When your team haven't a good midfield then probably you will get detract whether you have good attack or even good coach. So right now Real Madrid midfield is not that good to be considered for big hunt like Real Betis match is the cleared evidence. This season they brought Jose Morhino and brought so many great players but still failed to secure 3 point against a average team.

I was really surprised that upon all the money spent on incoming players this summer transfer window, real madrid did not sign a quality central midfielder to replace Toni kroos, because since he left the club, they have really struggled against stronger opposition in midfield, so if they can bring in a midfielder that can do what Toni kroos does as the chief conductor  when he was still playing at the club, they will not be losing or struggling in midfield, in games like this, so that should be their priority signing this upcoming January transfer window.

Real Madrid have made a number of signings in the transfer summer and we have seen that they have spent the most money on Diomande but the solution to this team's midfield problem still remains because this team is showing that after losing their first match under their new manager Jose Mourinho. Look there is no talented player like Toni Kroos in this team but as far as I know, the new Real Madrid manager has given responsibility for that position to Bernardo Silva, in fact although Madrid has bought many players, they only purchased this Portuguese midfielder for this new season.

Anyway Real Madrid still has the best midfielders, like Valverde, who is a very skilled player, however we think the team suffered an unexpected defeat at Real Betis because despite being awarded a penalty in that match, the team could not draw the match, as a result it seems that the team is falling behind in the title race even in the 2026/27 season under the leadership of Jose Mourinho.

Somebody please tell me why Julian Alvarez was seen crying toward during Atletico Madrid lose. Why?!

A whining kid that doesn't get the toy he wanted. He's acted like very unprofessional player. It's such a bad luck for Atletico has signed a whining kid like him. He should have blamed his stupidity by signed long term contract with Atletico instead of blaming the club not to let him go.

I don’t think Real Madrid deserved to lose this game. They played much better than Betis, especially in the first half. They didn’t deserve to lose in the second half either, although they started playing more nervously because nothing was working for them, especially in attack. Sometimes a team simply has one of those days when nothing goes their way. I think Mbappé’s missed penalty was another example of that.

Barcelona have a good chance to beat Valencia today and move ahead of Real. But we’ll see how it goes, whether Barcelona get the win or Valencia manage to hold them to a draw.

Seriously, it's annoying how some of these players will signed a long term contract with a club and then suddenly want to leave to another club and expect the club to let them go freely. They should always consider the possibility of a better offer in the future and sign a one year or at most two years with a club. They can renew the contract the following years if the club is still interested in them or explore other options if the club is not longer interested. I will not blame the club in cases like this but the players that blindly signed a longer term contract and want the contract terminated overnight. If both parties want to terminate the contract mutually, that's fine but you can not forcefully want the contract terminated against the wish of the club and expect them to be cool with that.

Somebody please tell me why Julian Alvarez was seen crying toward during Atletico Madrid lose. Why?!

I saw the clip of him crying and i was pissed like bro no one forced him to sign a contract extension, so what’s with the BS?

It seems common among most Argentina players, they do stuffs like this thinking they control football; always being controversial when it comes to contracts and trying to dictate for clubs.

Dybala once sold his image rights to private companies but still wanted a decent contract, Enzo Fernandez too just did his own at Chelsea not quite long.

I believe in nearest future, most clubs will start to avoid signing Argentinian players to avoid problems, because WTH!

[Solokan]

Madrid performed poorly yesterday and I know it's still too early to lay aspersions on them as a club but the way I see it UCL competition will be very hard for them because you can't keep playing one thing and expect different results. Betis were very prepared for them and to think that this was the same Betis that Barcelona tore through so if Madrid can't defeat a team like Betis, how can they show they're fit to beat other European clubs whom they might not be too used to playing?

Real Madrid did not perform well in yesterday's match, and it's not wrong if some people are worried about Real Madrid when they play in the UCL because the opponents they will face in the UCL are certainly strong teams. However, considering the score of yesterday's match between Real Madrid and Betis (1-0), I'm not too worried because Real Madrid also has a very good attack, but they couldn't capitalize on it well. So, I think Real Madrid definitely has great potential to bounce back and will be ready to face any team in the UCL and La Liga. Sometimes a team doesn't win every match, and what happened to Real Madrid yesterday is certainly normal. Now I'm curious about Real Madrid's next match against Inter in the UCL, but I think there's a big chance Real Madrid will win against Inter later.

Oh yes, Barcelona will face Valencia later, and this is a good opportunity for Barcelona to get 3 points from Valencia. I think Barcelona has a big chance to win, what do you think?

It would be quite surprising if Barcelona also lost their game today. That would mean they would join Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, who have already lost their away games this round. So I think Barcelona won’t lose today, but even the odds on them to win are quite low. Valencia have been very poor in attack, scoring just one goal in three matches, but they conceded three goals against Deportivo. I think they will concede at least two against Barcelona as well.

That is exactly what is expected to happen. If there is no incident today, then naturally Barcelona will win the match against Valencia and will be at the top of the points table. And the gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid will increase, meaning Barcelona will go to the top of the points table alone with 12 points. If the winning streak continues at the beginning of the season, it will be much easier for Barcelona to achieve their goal.

[cande86]

I figure the team would be much better as it is but, they don’t look as good as Barcelona and Raphinha seems a lot fired up for this season.

I think a name like his among so many talented players would disappear.
Not because he is less strong, but simply because other players are used to the attention that is given to these clubs and he, from being a strong player, would become an average player in clubs like those.

[Adbitco]

The main shocker wasn't really about Real Madrid losing, it was about Atletico Madrid losing 3 - 0, this was a match I had thought Atletico Madrid would win easily but of the form Athletic Bilbao is. After the first goal was scored, I was like, ok maybe this is the opportunity Bilbao has taken for both teams to score not knowing they will go ahead to score 2 more goals. I had placed a bet separately for Atletico Madrid and Rayo Vallecano to both win , these were the 2 games I trusted most to deliver but unfortunately, Atletico Madrid said, not this time, try again next time.

As we saw last season and the season before, Barcelona have been able to collect points from a winning streak and have taken the trophy at the end of the tournament without any strong competition. Valencia have played 3 matches and have not won any of them. While the team's success rate is low, Barcelona will be looking for opportunities to win with a higher goal difference. Although the points table is currently equal with Real Madrid, Barcelona may soon be able to add 3 more points. One of Hansi Flick best strategies is that he gives equal importance to each opponent and prepares the players accordingly and his boys have been successful most of the time.

My problem in this match wasn't about the lose because it's something normal in football and it can happen to any team. But the problem is that the season is still fresh which I feel it's too early for Real Madrid to start dropping points. They spent a lot to sign many players to the team, and which people are expecting to see them doing very well because they have high expectations to Real Madrid this season, especially as they are playing under a manager that everybody trust to make positive changes and help them win a lot this season. Barcelona will play against Valencia, and the match will be kick at Valencia home but I'm confident that Barcelona will definitely secure three points.

Barcelona will definitely win todays match ( fourth match) but without thinking twice, they actually have Madrid to drag the champion with as the season moves.

Barcelona are not guaranteed to win this match, and Valencia, as the home team, have a good chance of holding them to a draw. Remember, Valencia managed to beat Barcelona last season. So, a surprising result that goes against expectations could definitely happen.

I don’t think Real Madrid deserved to lose this game.

Don't be surprised by Madrid's defeat yesterday, because Real Betis have always made it difficult for Real Madrid to get all 3 points. We could see from their previous meetings that Real Betis have always been aggressive while also defending well when playing at home against Real Madrid. So, although I was also a little disappointed by the defeat, I think it was something that had to happen.

Madrid will only drag the title with them if Madrid are able to seize opportunities and not end up the way they do last season, because there were times last season where Madrid had the chance to just win a game and move up the table or they will even win a game because at the top of the table but at the end of the day, Barcelona will still come back to claim it effortlessly, what Madrid needs is rigorous consistency because their direct opponent which is Barcelona are consistent and have been consistent for some seasons now, they know how to bounce back anytime they suffer a defeat, if Madrid can work on their consistency, I believe they will go far this season or even end up winning the title.

It has happened and that is it. The best thing for Real Madrid now is to focus on their coming match and get prepared on how they can secure the three points.But I don't expect people to be that surprised with the result that Real Madrid got in their last game, because normally, Real Madrid have not always found it easy to win against Real Betis, especially on their own ground. So, fans should know that there are some games that each team always finds so hard to win, no matter the time they meet.Now, what I want the coach to do is just address the key mistakes that led to their loss, so that in case of another game, or whenever they meet again, those mistakes will not be repeated.

As for Valencia's match against Barcelona, with Barcelona's performance so far this season compared with Valencia, it is clear that Barcelona is the favorite team. But that is not guaranteed in football. It is possible that we are going to see a different result at the end of the match, like what happened in the Bundesliga yesterday, when Bayern Munich ended up drawing against Schalke 04.We know Schalke 04 as a relatively weak team that had just been promoted, so before the match started, almost everyone believed that Bayern Munich would find the match very easy to win. But it never went the way we thought.

Man!.. stop the bull crab, it’s not an Argentinian thing it’s a football thing and he’s not the first to want a new club when he still have a contract. Not that I’m supporting it but Players will always want what they want, everybody in the football business is selfish don’t make it an Argentinian problem.
Even Atletico Madrid bought him when he still had a contract with Manchester City, they’re just making a big fuss about it.

In another news!!…
Barcelona is having a field trip at Valencia’s back yard. Lamine Yamal and Fermin Lopez already on the scoresheet.
Ohh Raphinha just added a third.

The first half has ended and Barcelona the current scoreline is Valencia 0:2 Barcelona the game is going in Barcelona favor. Lamine Yamal score the first goal with an assist from Farmin Lopez, and farmin Lopez that provided the first assist, score the second goal for Barcelona again. I know Football is unpredictable but so far, with the performances Barcelona players have shown in the first half, I can say this match has been decided as a victory for Barcelona, because I don't think Barcelona can afford to lose this match as they are already leading with two goals. I'm expecting Barcelona to score more goals in the second half, because they created a lot of chances in the first half which put Valencia under pressure throughout.
 

[cocadalcan]

Barcelona have already scored 3 goals in the first half of the match. The score is 3-0, which makes it easy to predict the outcome of the match. If nothing unexpected happens in the second half of the match, Barcelona will definitely win. The players who were supposed to score the goals did. Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and Fermín López scored one goal each. How many more goals do you think will be scored in the remaining time of the match?
