La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 !

[Gurujebs]

I don't say Madrid is that bad a team but losing 2-9 in two El Classico games can't be said to be just bad luck, it's purely about tactics.
Ancelotti is still playing players out of position, and letting Barca disgrace them.
And many Madrid players practice their dance moves on the pitch more than their soccer skills.
So sorry. Flick Ball was better and Barca was too strong for them.

I hope you wanted to write 2-5 right! Actually, I was also disappointed with the result they played in the final. There is no way Real Madrid that I know is that bad to lose that final match with 3 goals, not like there is red card or some problem within the players but they comfortably sit down and let Barcelona spoilt their reputation.

It's high time Anceloti separate boys from the old men. There is no need to bench some players, there should be changes in the faces we see in the starting of the game, not everytime team has to play games that are bad.

There's no cause for alarm in the Madrid lineup this issue about Madrid losing to Barcelona has been over flogged the fact of the matter is that Madrid had a bad day due to the tactics that Barcelona deployed in them that day it doesn't mean that they are not a good side because it's not every day that you win sometimes even the biggest of teams lose so there is no big deal in Madrid losing 2:5 at home what of the first el clasico fixtures that Barcelona won 4:0 so I think this season Barcelona just has a upper hand over Madrid

If it was then, it was easy to make predictions for Manchester United that they can win Southampton because they don't give chance to teams when playing home game but this one might surprise you to lost the game later.

Well I'm watching the game and the truth is that Southampton is playing a great game, and they are at Old Trafford, it would be a terrible blow if they beat MU at home, because I've seen that they are doing very well, however now I think that MU is taking more ground, there was a free kick just now in favor of MU and Bruno didn't do it very well, but I see that they are attacking a bit more, but roughly speaking I see that Southampton's strategy is good counterattacks, and well now they missed a clear goal.

Real Madrid's condition this season is quite different from previous seasons. Although they did have Mbappe, they lost Kroos who is the heart of Real Madrid's game and rhythm. and now, they are not that consistent. even in the 2 El Classico matches, Barcelona really managed to slaughter Real Madrid, it wasn't that difficult, even with only 10 players, Real Madrid couldn't even beat them. yes, Ancelotti and Hansi Flick have different tactics, and this time, Hansi Flick is much more careful and good at forming their current team.

And talking about Hansi Flick, actually the new Barcelona coach didn't expect much when he first arrived at Barcelona. Many people think that the previous coach, Xavi Hernandez, is still very worthy of continuing his coaching at Barcelona. but the club decided to collaborate with Xavi and took a bold step by bringing in Hansi Flick. And the results surprised almost everyone. because Barcelona has indeed developed into a stronger team under Hansi Flick's coaching. Their style of play always reminds me of the Spanish national team at Euro 2024.

Hansi Flick not only builds a squad to be strong in tactics but also builds their mentality and winning spirit much more ready in any condition. That's why yesterday in several matches when Barcelona was quite down, Hansi Flick also focused on their mentality and motivation. And this was quite successful. Especially when the problem about Dani Olmo and Victor which in the final was quite finished temporarily, it gave very good ammunition for motivation and also the strength of the squad.

Oh yeah in the Copa del Rey, Barcelona was also really big against Real Betis with a score of 5-1. They really dominated the match. On the other hand, Real Madrid until the 90+2 minute, only drew 2-2, even though their opponent was Celta Vigo. Really bad

[koang]

Two games and two losses this season,  2-9 in two games, isn't a joke because this is El Classico. lol
Madrid lacks a clear formation and tactical approach and yeah, The defense is terrible.
I don't know what football Madrid was playing when 2 passes destroyed them, Pass to wings and then unto space, Flick did that 2passes in both games. Both goals came purely from individual brilliance. Barca is better!

Well, there has been a lot of speculation about an urgent coaching change, the most likely candidate for this is the great Xabi Alonso, however when they tried to tell Ancelotti about the changes and advice he showed some statistics that left everyone speechless, but I consider that this is not the way to play against a team like Barcelona, ​​there are other teams that have beaten them but Madrid do not know or do not have the formula to stop a Raphinha, they put in a Tchouameni, Lucas who ridicule them, they urgently need Italian-style defenders, nothing else is needed, plus Arda Guller on the bench is a very bad thing.

Yep, it's all about tactical. Flick Ball is better
I agree when you mentioned Arda Guler, 0 minutes for Arda Güler once again, that's a good point.
Arda should have been subbed on to bring more control and creativity to the game.
Rumors of Xabi replacing Don Carlo at Madrid have been circulating since last season and two defeats to Barca this season have brought the fans back to the rumor, but it looks like it will become a reality next season. Just hope

They just got a breath of fresh air after beating Real Madrid in the final, they must maintain that as a good momentum.

I think they will be able to maintain that freshness in the team as long as their young star player, Lamine Yamal, continues to deliver. His influence on the team is so huge, very huge, that the management of the club is considering handing him the iconic number 10 jersey next season.

I think he is very okay to wear it.

Well, honestly I don't agree with something like this, I mean when only one player is expected to be the difference in a team, that is something that should not be done.

Because if that happens, then when the player has to be absent in a match, they will likely feel more difficulty. As a team they must be good in terms of cooperation between all players, not just relying on 1 person.

Atletico Madrid really believes in it this season, I see, still firmly in first position if I'm not mistaken
I'm glad that there is a sort of turnover at the top, otherwise seeing Real Madrid and Barcelona all the time becomes boring, obviously according to my entertainment parameters

Atletico Madrid have consistent performance in this season after winning 13 of 19 games and loss one match only, but current points gap with Madrid still not secure yet behind one point left and potential for Madrid take Atletico top standings position. Atletico Madrid will face Leganes in this week but have to rotate player because will face Bayern Leverkusen in Champion League match, Atletico still need to win two matches left in Champion League and have focus for playing well in domestic league to defend first standings place and in Champion League get qualify to 16 of round.

Exactly, that's exactly why I say it

Currently his performances are really good, I never expected him to play so well
in fact it deserves first place, if I'm not mistaken Real Madrid still has to play so it's temporary first place (a bit like Atalanta in Serie A, Inter still have one game less)

[|MINER|]

Barcelona have always been good, especially most so when playing against a side like Real Betis, and so this was just a typical performance by this team. At the same time, concepts of young people like Lamine Yamal contributing a lot in the attack contribute to building the belief in young players. Being on top most of the time, many followers would smile to it as a possibility to score two more goals in the remainder of the match. This perception is fueled by other statistics they have recorded their success in most of the past meetings they had farther supporting the belief that a big win is not something that is impossible. It is easy to support their capability to sustain the level of played game, regarding the extent to which they have managed to govern the game.

However, Barcelona performed according to my expectations in this match. Barcelona performed two bold matches in a row, although the huge five-goal win over Real Madrid was more enjoyable than this one.
Even though the match with Real Betis was a game in another league, I still enjoyed the game. Even after scoring three goals, I was hoping that they would score more towards the end and that came true. My prediction has never been so successful and correct, it was one of my best predictions.

Athletico Madrid this season is a typical example of hard work and dedication because at the start of the season athletico Madrid was really struggling to even get a win to the point where people where actually calling for the sack of Diego simoni but how things has turned round for them because currently they are leading the laliga table with 44 points topping big rivals like Madrid and Barcelona seriously speaking nobody expected this one because with was the way athletico Madrid started the season I for once was of the opinion that the coach has over stayed his welcome at the club as the coach but he has silence all his critics

Indeed, Barcelona's performance in both the Supercopa de España and the Copa del Rey was incredible, they won big by scoring 5 goals, both against Real Madrid and Real Betis. So, we just have to see how their game development changes in La Liga this week. Because, in the last 5 matches, their performance has been quite declining in La Liga.

....Real Madrid will face Celta Vigo in Copa del Rey round 16 and most important match to get opportunity treble winner in this season....

Oh yeah, after being worrying in the Copa del Rey, finally Real Madrid was able to win against Celta Vigo with an additional 3 goals in extra time. And this happened after Mbappe was replaced by Endrick. Just coming in, Endrick was able to score 2 goals, and 1 additional goal from Valverde. It turned out that Endrick was able to maximize his skills in this extra time and save Real Madrid that much.

If you have been a Spanish lover of football since Ronaldo and Messi time, you will understand why people are trying so hard to be little Real Madrid. El clasico has always been a tough game and rough game, there is no friends when there is El clasico match, it's always aggressive and most talk about and over the years Real Madrid and Barcelona don't come in good terms even in the respective towns of Madrid and Barcelona.

Ever since Messi left Barcelona, Real Madrid have been ontop of the game but recently, it seems that Barcelona has cracked the code and the table has turned around. Its giving Barcelona fans joy that Real Madrid are losing.

Money can surely buy success but this has truly been proven by Athletico Madrid that hard work with patience surely pays off even when many lacked the confidence in you. This season they had to start off poorly and up to now they have been able to pull off great performances that sees them on top of the log. We noticed how Diego Simeone has demonstrated once more as a man that knows the concern for the team and how they change criticism for motivation in order to create a strong and rigorous team. Their current standing in La Liga proves that when you want something so bad you work very hard to achieve it nothing should hold you back. This success should be evidence that a journey fraught with depth hiccups can in the end bring out the best especially with a belief in each other as a team.
