Topic: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 - page 221. (Read 553940 times)

A very disappointing result, when Madrid could only draw against Rayo Vallecano, Barcelona ended tragically when facing an opponent who should have been beatable if measured in terms of squad depth. This result makes Atletico successfully stick to Barcelona in 2nd position with the same number of points, while Real Madrid follows in 3rd position with 37 points. Madrid and Atletico both still have 1 game left and the next match Barcelona will face Atletico. I hope you don't forget about Atletico in the title race because they have been very consistent so far.

They lost best form several weeks ago and when they played well, dominated La Liga before recent disappointed matches, I already imagined that they will soon have problems with a considerable dependence on an old striker Robert Lewandowski. He returns to his best performances at his 36-year old, that is surprising but it's risky dependence.

This match is another disappointed for Barcelona, dominated it, created many chances, shot a lot but no goal and it is nightmare for them by letting Leganes scored a first goal too early. Barcelona tried a lot but failed to find one point from the opponent and this failure will put Barcelona under more pressure from Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid.

Barcelona again gave their surprise by being defeated by a club that can be said to be a weak club, how could this happen? Isn't it embarrassing to be defeated by a promoted club like Leganes?

See this:


Barcelona made so many shots but none of them were converted into goals, conceding in the 4th minute without being able to reply in the remaining time which was quite long was really disappointing, I think Real Madrid still has a big chance to win the title Barcelona is not completely consistent this season.

As Barcelona's rival fans say, the team that was given a big score by them was able to beat Barcelona early in the match and was able to hold on until the end of the match.
This will be the beginning for the two teams from Madrid to overtake Barcelona. The result that Barcelona received against Leganes should not have happened like that. Although it is not true, this 0-1 result is like a scenario.

Leganes really paid special attention to their defense after the goal happened in the 4th minute. Just look at how they made clearances. The number of clearances was 55 times during the 90 minutes which is the most in a single match.

And now look at the results,



I was worried before that Barcelona would repeat the same mistake. And before I also said that Barcelona has been difficult to predict lately because they have lost their consistency.
And now they have to feel embarrassed at home when facing a weak team like Leganes.
We expect too much from Barcelona and this is why I sometimes choose to bet on the underdog.

This condition in my opinion will be resolved later after the mid-season, maybe Ancelotti will use the transfer window to overcome the player crisis problem and in that match if you look at how the referee decision that was considered beneficial to Rayo was correct but that was not the main reason for Real Madrid failure because they were actually team that was still superior to Rayo.
Today I to swallow the disappointment of Barcelona defeat to Leganes, they played very well for series of attacks but it did not produce results, with this failure Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid are still at an advantage for the temporary standings.

Yes, i don't know why Barcelona's performance in this match was unsatisfactory, they couldn't even equalize the score scored by Leganes in the early minutes, opportunity after opportunity came but did not also produce goals until the match ended with a score of 1-0, even though Barcelona is at the top of the Klasement with a score of 38 points, but still Barcelona must be really serious if they want to be the winner.

The competition between Barcelona, Atletico, and Real Madrid are getting tougher now. Atletico propagate up to 2nd position because Real Madrid's draw on previous match. Now, it's not just Barcelona that must be conquered Real Madrid, but also Atletico whose performance gradually increase steply. And it might be Atletico Bilbao will shift their position if real Madrid still on bad performance. from the table above we can see Atletico Madrid are the best one from all matches, they won 5 match on the row, and in fact they are unbeaten in all 11 matches. This season has been very interesting to watch, and most likely who will the champion will be determined at the end of week 38.

It seems endless to see the competition between Real Madrid and Barcelona and previously Real Madrid got a draw in the match and Barcelona actually lost.
I'm sure this will cause quite a tough resistance for fans of both and we will see an increasingly competitive competition for both.
Barcelona's defeat was indeed very surprising because the opponent they faced was not a strong team and previously Barcelona was said to have started to find a coach who understood the team's condition well, but he was also unable to provide certainty.

Yes, in the end we will see Real Madrid as one of the teams that has the certainty to win La Liga, even though at the start of the season they did not show one of the most promising teams.

This result surprised me, Barcelona should have won. But I am happy, because the point difference with Madrid is not increasing. When looking at Barcelona's statistics, it's really bad. Even Barcelona dominated but they were only able to make 4 shots on target. It was the same with Leganes who only relied on counterattacks. From this, there are two tasks of Hansi Flick. Flick will have to improve their forwards' defense and finishing. While Leganes had to thank Marco Dmitrovic, he made 3 crucial saves that should have been goals for Barcelona.

This defeat does not cause Barcelona losing their first position yet but now they have same points like Atletico Madrid, 1 point more than Real Madrid and they already played one more match than two competitors. At the fourth position, Athletico Bilbao have only 5 points less than Barcelona and pressure on Barcelona now is increasing from three clubs behind. Barcelona have risk of losing their first position and can be challenged by Athletic Bilbao too.

In stats, I am impressed that Atletico Madrid have best defense among top clubs in La Liga but in defense, there is a big surprise from Real Sociedad with same 11 conceded goals so far. Real Sociedad have strong defense like Atletico Madrid but with not too strong attack, they are only at the 7th position.

I am not also comfortable with people predicting that because a club has been consistent for a few seasons they will definitely win the league. Maybe it might be easier to say that concerning the French League. But the La Liga, EPL, Seria A, and Bundesliga are highly competitive. Only a few people would have predicted that Bayer Leverkusen would be champions last season. With the quality of players and the experience of the coach, Manchester City was considered a clear favorite to compete for the EPL title this season, but we are seeing a struggling team now.  

Barcelona shouldn't be written off as title contenders because they lost a game. There are still more games to play to determine who will be the La Liga champions.

in the 18th match in Laliga, it was a shame that Barcelona had to swallow the bitter pill because in today's match we just saw Leganes succeed in beating Barcelona with a score of 0-1, of course this surprised me because Barcelona is a team that is considered strong and has now been defeated. by a team that has just been promoted this season (Leganes) in my opinion this defeat will definitely make all Barcelona fans scratch their heads because there were so many opportunities created by Barcelona to score goals against Leganes but the Barcelona players were unable to take advantage of them properly. I thought that in the second half Barcelona would score a goal and be able to catch the goal scored by Leganez and in the end Barcelona would win. Yes, in this match even though all of Barcelona's mainstay players were all fielded, I don't know what happened, I personally didn't expect this to happen and I don't know why Barcelona played like this with poor results.

I lost the bet in this match because I thought Barcelona would win, but it's a shame that Barcelona lost. Now we won't know what will happen to Barcelona in the next match because even against a team like Leganes, they've already lost, especially against another team whose ranking is better. from Leganes then it will definitely make things difficult for Barcelona. But to be honest, my feeling is that Barcelona will definitely be able to recover because of course their strength is still good in attack and part of it, maybe Hansi Flick just needs to improve a little, the use of opportunities. What do you all think about Barcelona's match against Leganes? Are you all disappointed with the result?

Don't be too quick to say that, this season's journey is still very long, now there are 3 teams competing fiercely at the top of the La Liga standings, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Real Madrid so anything is still possible to happen in the rest of this season's journey which is still very long.

This defeat was really surprising, no one expected Barcelona to lose to a promoted team at the bottom of the standings but that's football, there are many big surprises that happen and make football much more interesting.
Barcelona is now in a slump after starting the season well but instead they lost their rhythm, but I'm not surprised by that, I think it's natural and I'm also sure that this will pass soon and they will be able to rise.

 It's very obvious now that Barcelona aren't really interested in winning the title and just prefer to be noise makers. You win games that ordinarily looks difficult so easily and pouring goals in it but it gets to a point where you need to show up and take the much needed three points and then you'd see them misbehaving.
No wonder Ancelloti was bold enough to say that despite his side losing to Barcelona by goals, they can still win the league because he doesn't count the blaugrana as a threat.
 I said it earlier that when you underestimate teams like this, you get punished for it and that's what happened to Barcelona. Leganes literally locked their defense and there threw the key away. This loss now leaves them in a precarious state because with just one point between them and Madrid, there's no way Ancelloti's men would miss their next game as they will make sure to win so that they can pass Barcelona.

I never expected Barcelona to turn into the shite team in matter of weeks. They were giving me vibes they would be dominating the league, but it's all now vanished. They are pretty much the same like a mediocre club. That's what happen when they are too reliant on the 17 years old guy.

They scored 0 against leganes in their fuckin home is just telling us how dreadful they are now. In the last 6 games, they only won 1 game. I'm wondering how good Barcelona fans' mental health?

They're dropping full points against 17th team. They're just meh now.

Perhaps you should take a chill pill, it's merely someone's opinion which could be right or wrong, just like how your preaching of the end-result could backfire if a mistake is allowed to be made. As fate would have it, the concern of @hahay happened. It could cost the other party if the slightest of preventable mistakes happened regardless of how highly placed it is against the opponent. This kind of match is too believing in, I never believed that the less team Leganes could ever beat the leading Barcelona, especially at Spotify Camp Nou, but football happens and the more reason no club should underrate another or give room for any chance.

The 4th-minute header goal by Sergio Gonzalez was luck but certainly not the afterwards defence of the team, as they held Barcelona tightly till the end, so I give them that respect.

Barcelona started the season on very good note and were even able to beat Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu but in their last six games in the Spanish La Liga, they've only won just one game and are currently on the same point with Atletico Madrid who has played a game lesser that the current league leaders and one point better than Real Madrid who also have an outstanding game.
Considering how tight the title race in the Spanish La Liga is currently, do you think Barcelona will be able to win the league this season or do you think Atletico Madrid will beat everyone to the title or do you think the reigning champions Real Madrid will successfully defend the title? Let me read your thoughts.

The biggest mistake a person should not make: putting feelings into the game. And you made this big mistake. See:



Barcelona lose and look at the picture, Barcelona didn't score a goal. Since they conceded a goal in the 4th minute, nothing changed until the end of the game. So, as @hahay said, Barcelona lost. Since he didn't put any feelings into analyzing the game, he was right. While you kept putting your feelings into it to the point of blinding yourself and insulting him, you were wrong. Lastly: you don't need to be a great analyst to know what will happen at the end of La Liga: Real Madrid will be champion. You better accept this fact early, this weak Barcelona doesn't stand a chance.

When you talk about Barcelona if they are not ready to win the title, remember how these guys surprised all football lovers with those amazing winning and how they beat Madrid, we celebrated them even applaud them but while we do so we forget that there will be a day they will fail to always give us good football and winning just as we are seeing with Manchester City, that's by the way. I have this feeling that after this defeat that Barcelona will bounce back to winning ways.
What you said about Diego Simone is true, the Atletico Madrid team deserve it because they haven't shown any sign of seriousness when it comes to winning or competing for the title, the lost that consistency long time ago. As of last season were was they hiding when Girona took it upon themselves to compete for the title and to make life a living hell for both Madrid and Barcelona, that was a year ago and now ATM wants to be involved, I'll say let it happen to ATM and the manager they need to always be among the teams in the la Liga who are competing for the title. If they can keep up I think they (ATM) are the ones to mount more pressure on both Madrid and Barcelona, with Diego Simone guys on the mix I believe they will make it hard for Madrid and Barcelona.
