Topic: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 - page 562. (Read 541954 times)

Real Madrid will certainly not embarrass themselves in front of their own supporters today so I am also quite sure that Real Madrid will try to win even though not with so many goals. But if Real Madrid's front line players can be thirsty enough to score more goals in today's match, it is also not impossible that Real Villadolid can lose by a lot in this match. And another thing that makes me think that Real Madrid will try to win is about their position at this time because Real Villadolid has also won in the first match this season so Real Madrid will definitely not give Real Villadolid any room to win in this match.

Yes, Barcelona started well, and their opponents were strong, even if Athletic Bilbao did not start very well, but they are still a very good team. By the way, Williams also does not look very convincing, after the Euro he is not so good, maybe he should have accepted Barcelona's offer when it was relevant, now everything can happen as Flick said, that if he does not accept this offer now, then later it will no longer be relevant. Perhaps if he cannot play as well with Bilbao as he did with the Spanish national team, then interest in him will fade.

This match must be won by Real Madrid, they must be more serious, the disappointment in the previous match by only getting a draw was bad enough for us, Ancelloti was considered to have failed in implementing his strategy in the match, now they will face Valladolid at home, this must be a good momentum for Real Madrid to dispel all doubts that are pinned on them, by getting 3 points they will catch up on the points behind Barcelona because Barca has collected 6 points.
I hope the formation of Vini, Mbappe and Rodrigo goes well in this match.

From the first 2 La Liga matches played under Hansi Flick, Barcelona managed to collect 6 points and Lewandowski managed to score 3 goals in two matches. Barcelona development continues to increase since Hansi Flick was appointed as the head coach, he focuses on the attacking football strategy, his strategy is very good for Barcelona who are struggling to get out of the slump.
The formation used by Barcelona is very different from that used in the previous coach's era, the 4-2-3-1 formation used by Flick makes Barcelona play more prepared in defense and also very fast in attack. The two matches that Barcelona have played have gone smoothly, even though they won by a narrow score of 2-1, it seems that the Barcelona players are slowly starting to understand what Hansi Flick wants.

But it looks like Bellingham is absent from this match due to injury.
Still, even though Bellingham is absent, there are still many professional players who can break into Valladolid's goal by relying on Vinicius JR and Mbappe.
I even bet on Real Madrid's victory without conceding because I believe Real Madrid's defense is still very strong and Valladolid is not a strong club and easy to beat.
Maybe Real Madrid will score at least 3 goals in this match or even more than the number I think.

But as it stands now in the la Liga league competition in this season,  it will be hard for Real Madrid to have all those opportunity they use to have in some games to maintain a good position in the competition table last season, because they have too much professional players in the team and it will make them not to comparate to each other in this season. If I tell you that, it will be hard for Real Madrid to take Victory from their opponent in this game, will you believe me, because Real Valladolid coach will like to test his players to know if what he has impacted to them is working well, which I know it will going to work well for them to secure victory from Real Madrid.

Don't allow the Real Madrid arrangement in today game to make you feel they will going to Play Real Valladolid like a small team in this game because Real Valladolid will use their potential defenders  to frustrate Real Madrid  strikers effort in this game.

Barca played well in last night's match, they pressed well even though they dropped a little in the second half. Overall Barca played well, even though they missed several big chances. But still, this victory is good for them. In the Hansi Flick era, Raphinha's role is different from the Xavi era style. From the two matches played by Barcelona, ​​Raphinha was assigned to explore the opponent's defense line. Not infrequently, he also received the ball from the midfield. Pedri also played very well, although he tended to be a pivot. Torres was a little different, in last night's match he seemed to be assigned to penetrate the opponent's defense line. The point is, Flick's style of play is not much different from Pep Guardiola's concept. Interesting for the next matches, because I'm waiting for Hansi Flick's tactical variation.

For today's match, it is clear that theoretically Real Madrid will defeat Valladolid. Even though Bellingham, Camavinga and several other players are absent, Madrid is too strong to be defeated by Valladolid. Moreover, the match was held at the Santiago Bernabeu, El Real's headquarters. the odds owned by Madrid are also very low, it is clear that there is a clear gap between the two teams that will soon compete. Well, Mbappe should be able to prove himself by scoring a goal in this match.
Atletico Madrid vs Girona, both teams played a draw in the first week. however, it seems that ATM is much more ready to get three points at their home, especially since Girona's performance is quite doubtful this season.

This match Real Madrid does not need to rush into attacking if the opponent does not have many experienced players, but don't forget that sometimes underestimating can backfire on you. Therefore, regardless of Real Madrid being favored, playing seriously would be much better and this match may also be Real Madrid second experiment in implementing an attack system from 3 different lines. What is meant is that in the match against Villareal, Real Madrid was considered to have failed to implement the Vinicius, Mbappe and Rodrygo formation which finally Ancelotti admitted that his attack system was ineffective and unsatisfying to watch. Now it's time for Real Madrid to improve on their poor performance last week.

Real Madrid will clearly be hunting for a win in this match because in the first match they failed to get it, even though their expectations were quite high at that time. What I saw was that their creativity was not really working maybe the impact of Toni Kroos no longer being there, while no other player could replace his role.

This match should be a good opportunity for Real Madrid to solidify their strategy because they will be playing at home and Real Madrid has a pretty good record against Valladolid so far.

Today, Real Madrid vs Real Villadolid is going to be a very competitive game with the team after a short while, Real Madrid is best known for this La Liga season as the strongest team in the current season. However, compared to the squads of these two teams, I see the strongest players in the attack department of the Real Madrid team. However, Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, and Rodrigo will be the three players in the main attacking division. And they will be supported by Luka Modric and unique supporting players, but the opposite side does not have that many experienced players. That's why I have bet on Real Madrid team in this match and I believe that I can definitely win.

On paper there should be no reason for Madrid to draw or lose, because Valladolid is below Madrid in quality. However because Madrid first week results were quite unsatisfactory, many of us are now doubting the instability of their performance, plus Bellingham will be out for 1 month which adds a lot of gaps. This instability problem will be even more serious if Ancelotti does not find a solution regarding the placement of his attacking trio. The fans want the maximum from the Madrid squad and Ancelotti has no choice but to meet those standards.

The case of Nico Williams is not close yet for Barcelona and they still looking to find a way and hire this player. Nico Williams was playing for Bilbao in the they had against Barcelona while there were many rumors about Nico Williams leaving his team for Barcelona and Flick wanted to hire this player because of his performance he recently had.
Nico Williams had a good performance in this match and the interesting picture from Flick and Nico Williams is about the time when I think Flick said something to Nico Williams when he was close to this player.

Bellingham has indeed helped Real Madrid in goal difficulties several times and he is there to make it into a goal, but this is Real Madrid they have worked for decades and there are many famous players there so they can't possibly be down just because of one player, Bellingham has indeed done his best last season and this season they also have a new superstar, Mbappe so I think they will win the match I will not worry about their match because Ancelotti is not a coach who only relies on players but he is a very experienced coach and also the game scheme he applies is dangerous for his opponents.

Losing Bellingham I think there are still other options such as Arda and Luca Modric who can replace him so for now losing Bellingham will not have a big impact on this team because Real Madrid is a team form not an individual so Ancelotti will overcome this for the next match.

In one of the La Liga matches we will see meeting that is certainly quite interesting, this is meeting for two team that were quite strong last season and ranked 3rd and 4th.
Girona vs Atletico Madrid is quite an interesting match for this week, they previously both drew and only saved 1 point in the opening match of the League, I sure both of them will show very fierce game to compete for points.
It just that in the predictions I made for their match, it shows that the chances of victory for one of the team are very small, it is also likely to end in draw because the performance of Girona and Atletico Madrid is still quite equal.
It just that I was quite surprised when I saw the bookies actually making Atletico Madrid the overwhelming favorite to the point where the odds between the two were very different.

Yeah I agree. They were solid as a team there. Hansi Flick gives hope for the fans but let's see what he will do during the whole season. He is quite under pressure of earning achievements for the team.

Because Barcelona won the La Liga title only once in the last five years. Can you imagine how bad it is for them? The La Liga is the most important tournament for this team, a huge priority.

Today Real Madrid (vs Valladolid home) and Atletico Madrid (vs Girona home) are going to play their games. What do you foresee?

Honestly I expect comfortable wins by both. Real Madrid lack Bellingham and they couldn't start well. But I think they will make up for that. Atletico Madrid were able to beat Girona by 3-1 last season. Girona had a stronger squad then. I think a similar result could be seen. They have made really good additions to the squad. 

The most experienced player in the Barcelona squad is Lewandowski. And I think Hansi Flick builds his match strategy around Lewandowski in the centre. Lewandowski is the most important player in the Barcelona squad.

Barcelona's squad lacks experienced players. Hansi Flick wants to build a squad based on youth. And I'd say he's been pretty successful. Barcelona's match strategy and overall gameplay were very good in both matches. It was expected that Lewandowski would play well. But we also got a good performance from young Yamal. If this trend continues, Barcelona will be in a tough competition with Real Madrid for the title this season as well.

I am also waiting for Barcelona's competition with Real Madrid this season if Barcelona is really in better condition. And for the matter of player fatigue, it is actually not only on one team, but also on the other team although I think it doesn't need to be expressed now because we have all only watched two matches in the official season. In addition, today Real Madrid will also compete at home by hosting Real Valladolid and I will also see if Real Madrid is able to win or even draw as happened in their first match this season.

Barcelona fought until the last minute and showed that no one should underestimate them this season. Although, I expected them to win the game normally but I gave up and lost my hope seeing them playing draw after seventy minutes but fortunately, Lewandowski came through to secure them a winning goal at seventy fifth minute. However, they shouldn't be over excited about the win and forget that there is still a lot of work to be done especially in the defense. The overall performance is not a bad one but their defense is not yet in a good shape to resist penetration from more aggressive teams than Bilbao.


As for Madrid, this is supposed to be an easy game for them with lot of goals to increase the goal difference which will be an advantage for them when the league becomes more intense. I know the earlier they close the gap the better but the league is just starting and I have no doubt in Real madrid.

Atletico Madrid vs Girona

We all know Atletico Madrid has spend a lot of money during this summer to gets new players because total they had spend 183.5 million to gets Julian Alvarez, Robin Le Normand, Connor Gallagher and Alexander Sorloth so because Simeone has spend a lot of money then i am sure the management demanding Atletico Madrid can performing well

For Girona they have lost some of their important players this summer such as Artem Dovbyk and Savinho and i think this might will have negative impact to their performance especially lost Artem Dovbyk which automatically Girona don't have sharp striker again

About the outcomes of this match Simeone has successfully to managed Atletico Madrid records at home because since last season Atletico Madrid records is very impressive during playing at Metropolitano and for today too considering host factor i think Atletico will being an the winner of this match and the odds for Atletico is @1.50

Lewandowski again made a goal. 2 matches 3 goals. Very good for 36 years old.  Will he be a strong candidate for Top Scorer this season? Because Artem Dovbyk Girona has moved to AS Roma. It seems that it is still difficult to guess that there are still many matches. It seems that it is only a matter of opportunities and the type of coach that made Lewandowski last season unable to become the top scorer. But with 19 goals last season that is also quite a lot of goals. Lewandowski is number 3.
