This will add to the difficulty for Madrid because of course ACL is one of the injuries that can even kill a soccer player's career.
This is a loss in the midst of a league that will start in a few days and of course this is an unfavorable signal for Madrid at the start of this season.

Now in Courtois' absence Lunin is likely to start but on the other hand looking at some of the news that surfaced after Courtois was injured and needed at least 6 months to recover there are currently several names that will be used as options for Madrid.
There are names De Gea and Kepa who are one of Madrid's targets in some reports but this is still limited to rumors that could indeed be this just to increase news traffic.

An ACL injury cannot be considered an easy injury, it is quite severe and requires a lot of effort to heal, but there are also a lot of complications that occur if you treat the injury incorrectly. I understand very well the position of Madrid and their goalkeeper, but I think it's better to rely on Andriy Lunin to deal with this, because he should be a second option when Courtois has problems or is absent, it's usually like that, and we see that indeed Lunin is not bad at carrying out his duties as a goalkeeper as far as he is playing with Real Madrid, of course this is this is an opportunity for him to show his talent, because it is he who should get this opportunity and increase his flying hours, if management instead takes another option by bringing in a new keeper like DDG, I think that would be unfair to Andriy Lunin.

I'm a little confused by your comments. First, you said you weren't satisfied with the squad that Real Madrid has because they haven't found the right striker to replace Benzema in order to improve the quality of their attack line. After that, you start making predictions that Real Madrid will perform well this season.

Real Madrid is still not perfect even though they already have a talented midfielder, the striker position has not been resolved until now which has caused them to have difficulty scoring goals in pre-season matches. Ancelotti will go through the final season with Real Madrid with a little pressure if they fail to bring in a quality striker, Courtios injury has made Ancelotti even more dizzy with the current condition of the squad he has.
I doubt Real Madrid can recover this season based on the player material they currently have unless Real Madrid bring in reliable players before the transfer closes.

Carlo Ancelotti already thought he got good squad to go prepared for the new season, looks like he still got issued to handle in Santiago Bernabeu. Los Blancos hits with a bad news this summer, their first choice, Thibaut Courtois injured after he suffered a pain in his left knee. It was reported that the Belgium international has broken his anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee. It will take a lengthy period of time before he finally makes his full recovery back to game. The club will scout backup replacement that would fill in his space for the present time, because La Liga opening is sooner than expected to kickoff.

This is not just the way that Real Madrid were expecting to enter this season, they did not win the La Liga last season, they would have been hoping to start very well this season and give Barcelona who are the current defending champions some problem. Maybe Real Madrid will consider Ramsdale from Arsenal and try to bring him to Real Madrid since Arsenal have just contracted the service of a new goalkeeper from Brentford that will now share playing time with him. Ramsdale is still a good Goalkeeper, he can fill the spot of Courtois until he returns.

In the last season these two teams also made unexpected surprises, but this season, which is very close, I also don't know which one to support, even though these two teams have started to be seen frequently in La Liga. Even though I predict that Almeria might not embarrass himself at home at the start of this season even though Rayo Vallecano is a difficult opponent for Almeria because in H2H terms, Almeria has lost more often when facing Rayo Vallecano.

No one having any doubt about these two teams with their strength and quality is still at the top of the La Liga, and I am also agreed with this if Barcelona is going to have some advantage in early matches then surely Real Madrid can fight back in middle of the season as well but right now their main issue is still not fixed with they need to be had a striker which give them good conversion rate, and they are able to score goals as much they can in this coming season after the exit of Karim Benzema.

After checking few things most chances there is no chance for any club to give them any resistance for staying at the top two even Atlético Madrid is also not good enough to have any chance for this because they are also had no quality to compete with them, but things are looking interesting who is going to win and can Barcelona go for the back to back wins in title race.

The injury is a big blow to Real Madrid. Thibaut Courtois struggled for a while when he arrived at Real Madrid but he has cemented his place as the club's number one goalkeeper. The ACL fracture looks like a lengthy injury, thus Andriy Lunin and Luis Lopez cannot be relied upon to be in charge on goal because of their less game time and experience, a more suitable alternative is needed. Yassine Bounou, Kepa and DDG are all being linked as possible replacement but DDG is a free agent and looks more qualified. I understand Bayern Munich is also in search of a goalkeeper to replace the injured Manuel Neuer and DDG is one of the shortlisted names, so Real Madrid better act quickly.

Real Madrid is surely big club with too many exciting players, but they are still looking for the experienced centre forward because their main player is already left this club, and they are not having suitable replacement even they bought few players and most chances things could be as par they are expecting, but this point is till weak for them Athletic Bilbao has never been easy team to play on road for the Real Madrid even their record is impressive but still few things are looking for the answers from the Real Madrid in coming season.

Any prediction is OK but as we are having both teams I am expecting good result for the Real Madrid because few players are good, and they can do much better than expectations, but first match is surely going to be good and clear how they will be in coming season without any good striker.

Something that was not expected actually happened, Madrid had to lose the most important goalkeeper who cannot be replaced by anyone. Courtois suffered an injury when Madrid needed him at the start of the season. For whatever reason, this is Madrid's biggest loss in the face of La Liga and Champions League competitions. In my opinion, Madrid will not perform well without a goalkeeper like Courtois. Andriy Lunin may be good in several matches but we cannot compare it to how the main goalkeeper is.

If we pay attention, Barcelona players actually refuse because it's not about salary but their loyalty to the club. Or they refuse because they know that in Barcelona the position is ideal, so it's impossible to just let go of that position. Many Barcelona players are willing to have their wages cut and are still showing their best performance. This is what a club of loyal players has in whatever condition a club is.

Tomorrow Almería vs Rayo Vallecano in Spanish League these two teams will come to the field to play. I am worried about which team will win the match. I don't know which team to support in this match. But in this match Almería team players.  I want to bet, I don't know how the players of Almería team will play. I am waiting to see the match of these two teams tomorrow.

Theoretically, Barcelona should be more consistent than last season. why, because they don't make many changes in their squad. as for some newcomers, it actually adds to the depth of the Barcelona team itself. Xavi just needs to maximize his squad, especially in the midfield sector. if Gundohan can adapt more quickly, and achieve chemistry with his teammates, especially De Jong who is likely to become his partner, Barcelona can be much more consistent than last season. as for the other players, they should have achieved a very good level of chemistry. after winning the La Liga title last season, they should be more motivated and their mentality is getting better.

Speaking of the game against Getafe, it doesn't matter if they made significant improvements. because after all, these two teams are on different levels. so, Barcelona should easily subvert the opposing team.
Well, the problem is that this match is the first debut match in 2023/2024, we can't say for sure how Xavi Hernandez's squad will play the match. but like what was said at the beginning, theoretically Barcelona will win this match easily even though playing away from home. which is my point, who will be De Jong's partner in the midfield, I haven't got a predicted line-up from these two teams. but once again I say, this match should have been a good debut for Barcelona. if, Xavi includes Gundohan as his main starting eleven and he can play optimally. I'm pretty sure, at least the Barcelona squad will score 2 goals against Getafe in the match later.

I see the status of Guendongan who may not be able to register because Barcelona's Salary Cap is currently still tight so that it can only register 13 players. This problem occurs because there is a cooperation contract with the other party that must be reviewed. That number does not include their three new signings, namely Ilkay Guendogan, Inigo Martinez, and Oriel Romeu. Guendogan has a 3-year contract but he has a release clause if he cannot be listed in the main cast.

Real Madrid is not only having problems on the front lines, the back line also needs attention based on the negative results achieved by Real Madrid in pre-season matches. Real Madrid's movement has been a bit slow in the transfer market this time, they lost quickly to Barcelona, which has brought in several players despite being in a financial crisis.

Real Madrid needs to bring in a new striker to increase their attack power. La Liga first match is almost starting, they will compete at Bilbao headquarters. When compared to the quality of the two teams, Real Madrid is certainly better than Bilbao, but Real Madrid will have a long season, plus the games that must be played in the Champions League. Player injuries are unavoidable, Real Madrid must anticipate if they don't want to experience failure like last season.

Very bad news for Real Madrid and no one even expected something like this to happen when the competition started in a few days. According to various sources, Courtois' ACL injury can take a very long time to recover and it is even rumored that he will be out for a full season, but the best scenario is he can return in April 2024. I think this is a serious blow to the Real Madrid squad and maybe they have to move fast to get replacement for Courtois.

Now, according to various sources, there are three names of goalkeepers who are pursuing candidates to replace Courtois, namely Yassine Bounou from Sevilla, Kepa from Chelsea, and also David De Gea, who is currently a free agent. In my opinion, from the three names David De Gea clearly has consistent performance and also has more experience at the previous club. Andrey Lunin is not that good especially with a busy competition schedule I think Real Madrid will lose the chance to win the title.

In last five years Barcelona finances are going from bad to worse as they are completely going down and have no fair chance until 2047 to clear their debit which is currently standing at the £1.35 Billion with this few players which Barcelona needed to be offloaded are also not want to leave club which making things more troubling even right now they are not able to register their players for the new season which is surely not ideal situation for them.
 
Recently we have few rumors with they were looking for the few players to be sold, but all refuses, and their few big signings are also having big loses as these all were never been having not positive results as they were expected, and now they have to sell them on very low price which create more financial trouble on them hopefully things take good change for them, and they are able to fix this all without any big trouble in near future.

Real Madrid fans unhappy right now after team official confirm about Thibaut Courtois leaves training after suspected ACL injury and has chance absent on the first La Liga match against Athletic Bilbao. Based on kinds of injury, seems ACL need longer time for Thibaut Courtois get recovery and he needs about two until three months later. Although still window transfer not close yet, Real Madrid not official confirming for signing goal keeper and Andriy Lunin will be first choose awhile until Thibaut Courtois recovering from ACL injury.

Last season, Andriy Lunin played seven games in La Liga with Real Madrid and not doubt with his performance during Thibaut Courtois have absent for long time, hope Real Madrid can consistent and quit well performance without have Thibaut Courtois.

Real Madrid's position is complete, with the exception of the striker position, but even though they have players like Rodrigo and Joselu who can fill that position, I am not satisfied with it, so I predict that Real Madrid will start La Liga in good performance and also end it in good performance. Real Madrid will try their best because they have many midfield players and also have the new sign players like Bellingham, Garcia, and Joselu, who are very talented. Since Benzema departed the squad, the real Madrid stricker position has not been in excellent shape, which is why I'm dissatisfied with it. I believe they need to find another stricker who can handle the position like Benzema.

Although Rodrigo and Joselu are capable of filling in at the position, Real Madrid should also consider how they performed against Barcelona in the preseason game. Although I recognise that Barcelona is a strong team and can defeat Real Madrid, at the very least, Real Madrid should be able to score back a goal, even if it is just one. Another issue I continue to have concerns Real Madrid's goal keeper. I recently heard that Courtios, the best custodian for Real Madrid and one of the best in the world, has injured and won't be able to join them in time for the league opener. Courtios has been instrumental in many of Real Madrid's victories against their rivals, so I hope they can manage without him.

And what is more interesting is that Atletico Madrid also gave him full confidence to remain a coach there. because it is not uncommon for me to see a club quickly end cooperation with a coach because it is considered a failure, even though, they have not lived there long.
Simeone was also not just able to stay, because he felt some pressure from the supporters because he was considered unable to make significant changes. Even last season he also sounded like he had a fractured relationship with Atletico Madrid, but that was just a rumor, and it was proven he was still here now.

predicting pre season match is a bit difficult as it always has unexpected surprises so Im avoiding betting for now. but if you just speculate the match will end in a draw because Real Madrid performance in the last match was a little bad and on one side this is at home to Bilbao and according to H2H Real Madrid is superior.
in conclusion, in terms of performance, Real Madrid is superior, its just that Bilbao chances are also big to win because playing at home, of course, the supporters are a factor in this big opportunity. although there is no guarantee that playing at home has a chance of winning, the best choice is a draw.
