La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2026/27

[Saltysugar99]

Another Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi debate is about to take place on this two, kylian Mbappe and Lamine Yamal, is the next big debate coming up, but before we jump into that, they should try win the Ballon D'or so it will be much interesting, as they both has won the FIFA world cup, now they should do well to keep up with the wining, but the only thing that will make me not to interfere on this debate is they are both Cristiano Ronaldo fans, so in every which way I pick them both, no banter no sentiment.

Is Yamal a fan of Ronaldo? I haven’t heard anything about that - and I’m unlikely to, given that it’s practically forbidden at Barcelona In any case, despite what Yamal thinks, it seems to me that he is closer to Messi, there is too much PR around him, if it weren’t for his political position, I think he would have already been given a couple of Ballons d’Or. Overall, I’m glad that Yamal is getting hyped up again - made some decent money in the Ballon d’Or prediction market, and I’m looking to do the same in the future.

I myself have never seen Mbappe's activities or behavior that he is a fan of Ronaldo. But Yamal may not fan of Messi, but he likes Messi. He naturally says a lot of positive things about Messi. Yamal's activity about Messi can be observed on social media. From this thought, it can be logically assumed that Yamal is a fan of Messi. But Mbappe  has not seen any such activity about him as a fan of Ronaldo or Messi. And Mbappe has never expressed himself as a fan of Ronaldo or Messi. Mbappe is a good enough player. There can be arguments about Mbappe and Yamal, but I don't think it's time to consider who is the best. Mbappe's achievements are slightly ahead of Yamal. Mbappe has contributed a lot to France. His contribution to France winning the FIFA World Cup is considerable. In comparison, the contribution of the combined team to Spain winning the World Cup is considerable. But Yamal alone could not show any extraordinary performance, which would make it seem that Yamal's contribution to Spain is the same as Mbappe's for France.

You probably missed something Mbappé has clearly been a fan of Ronaldo and Real Madrid since he was young, there are many photos showing posters of them hanging in his childhood bedroom. Furthermore, Mbappé often replicates some of Ronaldo’s less common goal celebrations - for instance, this season, after scoring a hat-trick, he performed an "airplane" gesture, exactly as Ronaldo once did. Otherwise, I agree: Mbappé is a much more prominent figure and has made a far greater contribution to the national team's success than Yamal has - when Mbappé became a world champion, he even scored in the final. In the case of Yamal, for now, the national team is carrying him, rather than the other way around.

You see how Barcelona are celebrating this without any issue, nobody is making a fuss of this but let it be the other way round that's when they will remember game to goal ratio, lol. These guys are so obsessed with it whenever things don't go their way. You see how they only talk about how Yamal has got more goals and assists but wouldn't talk about the numbers of matches played. They forget that one has played 14 more games at this age compared to the other one. We are meant to accept this and move on simply because it suits their agenda. I'm glad overall, Mbappe has more goals when you pull up both players stats.

We dont look at goal ratio only, notice how goal ratio is a thing madrid fans now to consider but in ronaldo messi debate they ignore the better goal ratio of messi? So this is same the both ways, and according to me Lamine is way better because we dont look at goals only just see the assists and also without the goals and assists lamine has a very crucial role in buildup of any play and he delivers well, so somethings arent measured by stats only, but statistically lamine has 1.02 G/A ratio per game whereas Mbappe has 0.86 G/A ratio per game so try using some maths once in a while

This comparison actually doesn’t make sense, but because they’re both playing in clubs that are eternal rivals it’ll continue to be so. The truth is amongst all the prodigy’s we’ve seen so far, Lamine has more influence than all.

The fact he has even played more games proves it, when most coaches rarely trusts young talents he has many caps for club and country and is now a regular starter and decider for their matches. Mbappe was and is still explosive for club and country, he has achieved incredible feats notably the World Cup at 19, same age as Lamine when he won his but Mbappe had more influence than Yamal.

Maybe this guys will be the next Messi and Ronaldo debate.

Know doubt both players are very good and talented players with great future of going above expecting but we should no over rate any among them if we want to see the best qualities in them. 
Comparing both players i will say Mbappe is better than lamine because of his collective effort and individual  performance in there previous game. Looking at Mbappe's pattern of play. you will see with or without the effort of that same person still remain fine.
As for yamal he is a natural player with great potential but can easily loss all in difficult games .

Both players are good, Kylian Mbappe has been known before Lamine Yamal so we can't be comparing their two together and their age differences is also much, for me Kylian Mbappe is better and has more achievement more than Lamine Yamal including trophies, goals and individual awards, although Lamine Yamal at his young age has also achieved a lot for him self in Barcelona and Spain, he still has more potential and greater things to achieve in the future because he will still have more playing time than kylian Mbappe who is 8 years older than Yamal.

You are right that there is a difference in age and performance between Lamine Yamal and Mbappe. I will not compare them because of their age difference. But as a senior player, Mbappe's record and performance are much higher than Yamal. Yamal is gradually improving his performance and it can be assumed that he will be able to set great records in football in the future.
27 year old Mbappe has already achieved many important achievements and is called the goal machine of Real Madrid, Lamine Yamal may be able to reach that level in the future but his personal performance has not yet reached a level that can be compared to Mbappe.

I also believe that Barcelona has a greater chance of winning this match than Atletico Madrid. However, we shouldn't underestimate Atletico Madrid. This team is currently in quite good form. So, honestly, I'm quite hesitant about this match. I'm not overly confident in any one team. Although I'm also backing Barcelona to win, I'm still not 100 percent sure. So, time will tell. This match will ultimately determine who will finish at the top of the La Liga standings.

You know this is a match between the 1st and 2nd place teams in the standings and there are just two points difference between them, so predicting this kind of match is very difficult. I also believe that Barcelona have a greater chance of winning than Atletico Madrid but ATM is a team that is always a threat to Barcelona, even when they are not in form. I want to see how Hansi Flick will manage this match because I wasn't happy with their loss in El Clasico. But I hope he will make changes for this game because I consider Atletico Madrid a more difficult team for Barcelona than Real Madrid.

Lamine yamal and kylian Mbappe are very young talented and experience players, If you want to compare who is currently better without including their previous  achievements, kylian Mbappe  will take the lead.

Kylia Mbappe has scored more goals than lamine yamal this season. Mbappe has scored 15 goals across all competitions, he has scored 12 goals and two assists in the LaLiga as well as  three goals in the champion league, I didn't counted the goals they have both scored in the world cup but even if I did, Mbappe will still win.

For me, Lamine is a small player compare to kylia Mbappe, he still has a long way to go to break kylian Mbappe records.

[Alpha Marine]

just the other day in the Aston Villa match, Raphinha scored his second goal and was taken off two minutes later Raphinha, Lamine Yamal... they always get subbed off right after scoring two. even Cancelo scored two rockets and he pulled him off too.

How is the concept of resting and rotating the players by the coach a new concept? Barcelona have a very small squad. Aside from their starting 11, they don't have many quality players on the bench, so he needs to rotate his players and make sure they are fresh for the next game.
There is also the fact that Raphinha gets injured easily, so he has to be properly cared for.

Lamine yamal and kylian Mbappe are very young talented and experience players, If you want to compare who is currently better without including their previous  achievements, kylian Mbappe  will take the lead.

I'm not going to debate who is better, but aside from goals, what does Mbappe have over Lamine Yamal? And people still treat Mbappe like a youngster. You people forget that he will be 28 next month.
Everybody know Mbappe is one of the best goal scorers in Europe right now, but if you look at achievemnet, Lamine has won more than Mbappe.

For me, Lamine is a small player compare to kylia Mbappe, he still has a long way to go to break kylian Mbappe records.

Saying "Lamine has a long way to go before he gets to Mbappe" is funny
Lamine has literally won everything Mbappe has won and more. League titles, World Cup, finishing second on the Ballon d'Or podium and all. Then Lamine has won various individual awards and the Euro. So I don't understand why you say Lamine has a long way to go.

Mbappe fan no one, but he respects both Messi and Ronaldo. During some of his interviews, he genuinely said he fancies Ronaldo more than Messi as the greatest player ever. As for Lamine, it's not hidden anymore. Yamal has publicly posted on his social media that Ronaldo is his GOAT. Yamal is not a fan of Messi at all. In the World Cup, when Spain defeated Portugal, he went to Ronaldo and hugged him passionately, and in his mind, he promised to beat Argentina. Most people think Yamal is a Messi fan because they both came from the same academy and played in Barcelona.

Lionel Messi is a Barcelona legend, but it must be said that his departure from the club left many people disappointed. It is also worth noting that some individuals developed a sense of antipathy toward him because he left Barcelona. Perhaps Yamal is among those who were upset by his transfer or it could simply be that he openly admires Ronaldo’s style of play. Besides, sharing the same team doesn’t necessarily mean one has to like a player.

Some people may not want to research information and prefer to speculate quickly. You should provide this source for them to read.

For the last source, Mbappe also admired Messi when they were still at the same club. And actually, if people look at some of Mbappe's behaviour and the style he has shown over the years, they are quite similar to things Ronaldo used to do. So even if people have never looked up which legendary player Mbappe admired, they should already know.

Regarding Yamal, I actually like the player; he has excellent left foot skills. But my respect for him has been lost after his negative criticism of Madrid in the past.

For me, Lamine is a small player compare to kylia Mbappe, he still has a long way to go to break kylian Mbappe records.

The age difference between Lamine Yamal and Mbappe is 8 years. 19 year old Yamal is still very young and 27 year old Mbappe has come a long way and still has a lot of time left to set new records in football. In comparison, Yamal will have more time. If he can maintain his form he will enter the ranks of the world's legendary players.

There is no need to compare Mbappe and Lamine Yamal because both players are excellent in their respective positions and Mbappe is senior in terms of age and his personal performance is the best. Although Yamal is relatively young, he is improving very quickly and is improving his performance in every season.

Tonight Real Madrid will face Valencia. The negative side for Real Madrid is that the match will be at Valencia's home ground. The positive side is that Valencia are in second place in the list of weakest teams of the season. They have looked confident in the last few matches of La Liga, but they lacked confidence in the last match of the Champions League.

So I can't have full confidence in them tonight. If Vinicius Junior doesn't play for Real Madrid tonight, then maybe Madrid will win the match easily. If he does, then I see a threat for Real Madrid. I hope Vinicius doesn't play tonight.
