La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2026/27

[Ale88]

In the last two seasons also Barcelona have been more complete than Real Madrid and they have won the trophy in those seasons but we can say that this season Real Madrid are performing with a very determined attitude. In fact, after Real Madrid's change of coach, there has been a great synergy among the players in this team, as a result of which everyone can feel that even without Vinicius Junior, the attacking part of this team is still strong as Diomande has been performing in the top class.

Your guess is right this season La Liga title fight might be intense even Atletico Madrid is trying very hard this season as they are still 1 point ahead of Real Madrid and they have played 11 matches.However, since Madrid are unbeaten in six consecutive matches, we can assume that they might be able to overtake Atletico Madrid this season as well.

I love Diomande but I think the comparism they are trying to rope him into with Barcelona players makes no sense, people are now saying that he is a better signing than Gordons I don't think I agree with that. Let's get the stats right and also the price tag on both players, Anthony Gordons has proven more than Diomande, although there is still chance for him to get better than Gordons.

Diomande is 19 years old and he's very good at exploiting Vinicius's suspensions. His goals aren't ordinary; they're spectacular. Real Madrid did a really good job signing him. Compared to Anthony Gordon, Diomande is more expensive but seems like a better signing to me. Of course, this is just my personal opinion it could change from person to person.

Diomande has a lot of potential and yes, he scores beautiful goals, but I still think they really overpaid him based on what he did throughout his career. I was really surprised to see Real Madrid spending so much money for him.
Gordon is kind of weird signing, he is good but maybe Barcelona should have spent that money to reinforce their defense.

I won’t blame Madrid for spending that much on Diomande because they really needed some new spark in the team, their performance last season wasn’t so impressive, which could probably be due to the rivalry between the frontline line attackers, when a team have all stars as attackers there is always a conflict of interest because everyone will want to sell himself and that will make them play greedy football at times, bringing in Diomande is like creating some form of distraction, everyone’s focus won’t completely be on Vinicius anymore and that will give room for further improvement in the team, especially when certain players now knows that they could be replaced too if they misbehave, the good part is that despite Diomande being a young player, he is actually very good, he worth the price they bought him because of the impute he is putting into the team.

The odds are fair enough - though, for the sake of appearances, they could have been closer to 1.9 - 2.0 for Barcelona. But as you rightly pointed out, Atlético just hands points over to Barcelona in La Liga (while, at the same time, fighting tooth and nail whenever they play Real Madrid haha). Honestly, I don't see any point in betting on BTTS with such low odds. Maybe Atletico will try to play bus and hope for a draw, then the game could actually end with one team leaving without scoring.

For the Atletico vs. Bayern Munich and Atletico vs. Barcelona matches, I find it more logical to bet on goals rather than picking a winner.
The match against Bayern on Tuesday could be quite demanding for Atletico, as Bayern Munich also needs points—they currently have 5 points after their first three matches.
I believe both teams will score, and that the total will go over 2.5, or perhaps even over 3.5, goals.

I hold the same view regarding the match against Barcelona this weekend.

Oh, that’s right - I completely forgot that Bayern only has 5 points, thanks to that unnecessary draw against Viking, the result against Arsenal, I suppose, was fine. I don’t know yet whether it’s worth betting on goals, if Neuer is in goal then it’s worth it, hahaha, he’s unreliable.
Atlético typically perform very poorly against Barcelona in La Liga, however, last season this was largely due to their standing in the competition - they essentially gave up on the league, but managed to knock Barcelona out of the Champions League. This time around, a win against Barcelona would actually put Atlético at the top of the table, so they will certainly be giving it their all.

Barcelona 6 Vs Alaves 1 FT
Hahahaha, Barcelona strikes again, lol. I knew the intended beating they had reserved for Real Madrid after the PSG loss didn't come as planned by them, I knew it was the small team that will face it's consequences and Barcelona didn't disappoint.as expected. Before PSG and Real Madrid matches, we all thought Barcelona were really good but these 2 matches exposed them, some of them gave excuses that their team was fatigued, lol. Now that Barcelona won 6 - 1, are they not fatigued or they are only fatigued when they meet a big team?

Barcelona don't joke when they are playing against any team talk more of when they have they chances to bang more goals, the counted both points and goals, at some point the match wasn't making any sense although I love the goals, cause it is an added advantage, but come to think of it, was anyone thinking to see a different result from this one, Barcelona is never their mate.
Your statement on fatigue sounds like mockery, perhaps you can remind us between madryd and Barcelona who won the last El classico before this one, both teams will be meeting again which you know, so don't rejoice yet cause it is not over.

I might agree that they don't joke when they're playing with any team, it's been established since the start of the season that they were unstoppable or so we thought. Barcelona always have a bigger chance of being the favourites in every match, no doubt about that and I also understand that it's not every match they would win but the bone of contention is, so far this season they have only played 2 teams that are worth their standards and they failed in both despite being the favourites to win. Let's assume they won or drew one and lost the other one, it's understandable at least this banter won't have gotten to this or should I say it was because of how the fans and players have been making noise about how good they are.

[Roseline492]

Sometimes I think about what happens in Madrid dressing room, and how somebody like Vinicius Junior will be able to accept the fact that Diomande is now keeping him on the bench, where as he was supposed to be the face of Real Madrid
I know this might be so troubling to him as a person, therefore, when ever he doesn't see goal, I know he will deeply be disappointed.

Diomande has not bench Vinicius Junior in real Madrid even if he has scored more goals than Vinicius, perhaps if you are saying this because of the absence of Vinicius Junior among the real Madrid squad for the past few La Liga matches is not actually because of being benched but however it was the red card he got before in one of their match that made him got suspended but definitely not because of Diomande, and besides sometimes Mourinho usually don't play them on the same position because there are match you will see the both them starting matches together from forward but different position.

I understand what you meant, so are you now saying the reason why they were shining then was is because they have not met with teams that of their equal since they didn't get even more a draw when the same played it against the two teams, what I want to understand is that football is like this sometimes, as for the fans and their statements, it is normal for fans to praise the club they are fanning, the can lash on other clubs, which is what you're also doing currently, you're now reminding them of what they did when they were winning all their matches, they are still hot, Barca has lost just 1 match which is this very one against RealMadrid, so they are still very much active or don't you think so?

Terrible news as jesús de Miguel who plays in the laliga hypermotion for CD Tenerife passes away after terrible collision with FC Andorra goalkeeper jesús owono! Crazy news! During their match yesterday, FC Andorra goalkeeper jesús Owono rushed out to challenge the striker for the ball leading to a very terrible collision, the player struggled a bit and become motionless on the pitch, Medical personnels rushed to the pitch for assistance and eventually he was taken to the hospital. In the early hours of today it was confirmed by CD Tenerife that the player has passed away as his neurological condition was severely deteriorated.

Honestly I watched the clip and it was a very terrible collision, what was the goalkeeper thinking? He received a straight red and the match was abandoned but now he has taken a life, I’m sure he’s regretting right now as well.

The talks off overpayment are bullshit if he keeps on banging them goals and getting his goal tally higher and upwards. How man has he in the last three fixtures? Now that is how you judge and rate him. We have also see players brought in for a way higher figure but they did quite well with the club. Gareth Bale is the perfect example to use. And Anthony Gordon has improved, not the same I watched play for Newcastle United, I'd say he is far better than Marcus Rashford and everything he played for Barcelona.

I saw the news very terrible situation. The goalkeeper’s mind was just to stop him from scoring, it wasn’t intended for this even though he knew it was a bad tackle even his teammates had a handshake with him afterwards as he was walking into the tunnel, only for him to turn and it was a whole different situation.

This just reminds me of one bad tackle Marcelo did that made him cry for breaking someone’s legs but this one is far more worse cos a life was lost.
This is really crazy, De Miguel never expected that him taking to the field that day would be his last.
May his soul rest in peace, and his family find peace too.

Diomande has not done even quarter of what Vinicious has done but you all saw how the rival fans were praising him, he even gave his shirt to a Satandar fan, the love was pure. That is what Vinicious lack, he is stubborn and rude. All players can't be same, we he that but if everyone in football dislike your altitude, then you are the problem. The entire Spain doesn't like that boy and he thinks he is the best and doesn't care what people think about him.

There is no way Mourinho is going to bench Vinicious and use Diomande and he can't keep Diomande aside because of what he has done. I think it's right time both share some good moments of games in every half time, Vinicious can start while Diomande get to play the second half, both of them win and the club will be happy.

Very true, Diomande is doing very well and like you said, having a replacement will definitely make the players sit up and make sure they are on form and also there will be competition among the players to improve so that they will be part of the starting players. Real Madrid are doing well now, I must commend the players and the coaching staff for their efforts and ability to learn from their mistakes. I hope they continue in this form in all competitions and come back to winning trophies. Let's see how long they will go in the champions league and also in their remaining Laliga games, if they will win any title this season or not, but even if they don't win any title at least they should put in a performance that will give the fans hope that something substantial is achievable next season.

[LUCKMCFLY]

The way Real Madrid and Barcelona started the season, it seemed that Real Madrid had no chance this season either. But by winning El Clasico, Real Madrid made their position known and threatened Barcelona in the title fight.

And it's a relief they won because it's made the league much more competitive. Now Atlético is right there; they can't afford to slip up either. Barcelona has played well, but when they face big teams, that's when they start to stumble. It's not easy. Real Madrid, on the other hand, are improving a lot. They have a great team and can keep getting better. Mourinho finally fixed the dressing room problems, and they have everything they need to compete at a high level.

Of course, things are changing for the better now. There are many options, but I think the ideal situation is when Vini returns and they can integrate him alongside Diomande. For me, that wing would be a real game changer.

Let's not make it look like the goalkeeper committed murder. The goalkeeper didn’t take a life, it was an accident that happened, but it is very unfortunate that the other player died as a result of that. We have seen goalkeeper and players collided in the past, none resulted to the death of any player. A life has been lost, but the goalkeeper didn’t challenge for the ball with the intention of killing the player.

What is happening now is that if Vini is not careful, it is possible that Diamande will start benching him because of the great performances Diamande is putting in now. Mourinho is always after players who will give him the kind of results he wants. If any player is not giving Mourinho the kind of results he expects, and he has a better player to replace him with, he will definitely consider dropping such a player to the bench.Mourinho is not the kind of coach who likes pitying players to continuing to give them chances when they are not delivering the results he wants. He can easily drop players.But for now, let's see what is likely to happen when Vini returns. Will Mourinho continue playing him, even after seeing the good results Diamande is producing, which seem to be better than Vini's?

Everything you said is true but Vinícius is an experienced player and can work hard. In fact, many people don't like him because of his arrogant attitude. He is also criticized for not maintaining team discipline and also giving importance to individual effort on the field of play. Not cooperating with others to score goals is another bad habit of his. It is also true that Mourinho may give Vinícius more priority and not keep him on the bench. He also has to consider that Diomande is performing much better than Vinícius. I think Mourinho will find a way to play both of them.

Mourinho has to do what is in the team's favor. He may be positive about not playing Vinícius for the next few games although it may not be easy for him but I think he will use both players. Personally I think Diomande should be given more opportunities because Vinícius is going through a bad form this season or it will be better to keep Vinícius on the bench.

[Abdulzuruku01]

Gordon is kind of weird signing, he is good but maybe Barcelona should have spent that money to reinforce their defense.

Barcelona main problem is the defense and they have been struggling with this defensive issue for the past few seasons. Honestly I was expecting Barcelona to improve their defense this season, especially since they loaned Ronald Araujo out to Liverpool, I thought they would bring in experienced defenders but they did nothing about that. Gordon is a perfect signing for Barcelona because he always delivers with brilliant performances. And I think if Barcelona hadn't spent that amount on him, honestly I doubt Newcastle would have let him go.

Yan Diomande and Vinicius Junior have different playing styles, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Most importantly however when Vinicius Junior was sidelined due to a red card, Real Madrid still had equally capable options to field. Following the recent El Clasico macth, the public and fans began evaluating their performances and comparing the two, debating who is the better player. In reality, what matters most is that both players are ready to step in whenever the club needs them especially under a highly experienced manager like Mourinho, for whom the team strategi requirements take precedence over individual players. Consequently, comparing the two only serves to distract from the team focus and concentration this season.

Barcelona problem is defendlines, everyone knows that's the vulnerable spot for Barcelona and they've paid in full for their weakness by conceding goals that weren't meant to be conceded. Barcelona director, Deco will go in to the market in January to make sure he make proper plannings about bringing in solidable defenders who will stand out to play ferocious football at the backline.

Barcelona attack and midfield is balance, I do hear rumours about the signing of Anthony Gordon, that kid is good enough but he's just getting to adapt to the system at Barcelona. He needs time to build and adapt however he's scoring goals and making impacts on the pitch, what more can we expect from the englishman?

[Alex077]

Diomande has a lot of potential and yes, he scores beautiful goals, but I still think they really overpaid him based on what he did throughout his career. I was really surprised to see Real Madrid spending so much money for him.

These signing aren't made solely based on performance. In Diomande's case, his age was also taken into consideration. At just  19 years old, this youngster is already proving his capabilities. If he can gradually adapt to Madrid , he will  be capable of scoring plenty of goal in future. This Ivorian forward can provide long term service to Madrid. I do not think his wages are too high either. Diomande's annual salary is around 9 million , whereas madrid pays Vini 31 million+ Euros in wages.

Gordon is kind of weird signing, he is good but maybe Barcelona should have spent that money to reinforce their defense.

Gordon's overall performance in La liga is better than Diomande's. So how was his signing weird?? Barcelona's defense played somewhat poorly against strong teams, but that doesn't mean their defense is weak. Even with talented and experienced defender like Balde, Cubarsi, Garcia, cancelo, Espart, Kounde and martin in squad, do they really need to buy another defender? Barcelona's defensive issue is tactical flaw. Right now, they only need worthy  successor to Lewa. Other than that, no further changes are needed in this squad

Diomande also as a person is someone who has respect, and knows what Vinicius has done for himself  as a person,  and how he is being brought to be his replacement. In some context, this may not go down well with him as. Person, but he won't be able to change what has been written, and cannot also undone the  decision of the coach. All the young ladies need do now is keeping grinding and working hard because who will be the next Ballon dor winner, nobody knows.

The biggest problem with this team is that they have very good players, but they can't field the right lineup with these players. Because of these imbalances, I think there's a problem in the team right now. If you have star players, you need to be able to use them correctly.
I think there are problems at the management and coaching level. A team with so many good players should be flawless in every aspect
