It is a long road to getting over the incredible excitement that came with the FIFA World Cup. In that case, we’re ready for the next phase and look forward to an exciting round of fun.
The Spanish La Liga has been giving us some top-notch moments, and reviewing the La Liga recap; we can see that the league remains at its best.
2022-23 La Liga Schedule
The 2022/23 La Liga schedule has more exciting features and soccer odds for us to explore, and we are here for it. We expect some teams to return with a much more exciting vigor.
The clubs want to gather enough points to increase their chances of ending up in Europe or winning the league.
In that case, we expect them to return with better tactics, a game plan, and renewed discipline.
La Liga Odds
The La Liga odds will still favor the top teams, especially Real Madrid and Barcelona, leading the La Liga standings. So, we expect both La Liga teams to return with a better squad.
As we prepare for the league to return, let’s check out the La Liga recap for some of the top teams in the league.
We expect these teams to return with a better plan because their players will be refreshed and ready to take on any challenge their squad will face. So, let’s look at our top six picks for the return of the La Liga stats.
Barcelona
Before the break, the battle for the first spot was tough, but Barcelona found a way to top the league before it ended.
From the La Liga recap, the team won 12 matches, lost one, and drew one, showing how dominant they’ve been throughout the season. Barcelona remains one of the best teams in the league.
When the season returns, the Catalonia giants will want to continue their dominance to ensure they can finish as the number one team.
It won’t be easy, given that Real Madrid is right behind them and would also want to win another title as they hope to increase their trophy count.
Real Madrid
Los Blancos started the season as the better team. The team looked like they might run away with the league again.
However, Barcelona hasn’t relented, but after Madrid got the El Classico win, it looked like they would have a better season. But a few bad results changed everything for Real Madrid.
The team only lost one game, but the two draws put them in the second position. It is not all bad, given they are ahead of the third place with nine points.
So, we can see that the team is doing well before the break. However, Madrid needs to perform better than Barcelona once La Liga returns if they want to retain their title.
Atletico Madrid
The season is not looking good for Atletico Madrid. The team is struggling for wins. They only won 50% of their matches before the break.
It is not looking good for the team because if they continue with this form, they might miss out on the UEFA Champions League for the 2023/24 season.
It also looks like the team will soon be out of the title race. Therefore, they need to bounce back once the season resumes.
With 24 points from 14 games, they are 13 points away from the first position and on the same point as Bilbao in fourth place. So, getting positive results consistently will help the team finish higher.
Athletic Club
Athletic Club is performing a little bit better this season. They are currently fourth on the log, and we expect them to want to keep it that way.
However, they must be careful because Atletico Madrid and Real Betis share the same points. Therefore, any slip-up can see the team fall from the top four spots.
We expect the team to utilize their better goalscoring form because it will help to make the season better, and players with the proper discipline can help to increase their chances of winning the tie.
In that case, we’re ready for an incredible showdown. Athletic Club should return to the league with more firepower and discipline because they are close to making it into the UCL.
Valencia
Some of the top teams in the league are currently struggling. And Valencia is currently among them.
The team sits tenth on the log with 19 points, showing how they’ve not had good form since the start of the season. In that case, we can tell that Valencia will want to change its status once the league resumes.
The goal will be to make it into any of the European spots. However, they can only do that if they start winning more games and reduce the number of goals they concede in the remaining game.
Valencia is a solid team; the coach only needs to find the right structure and tactics to accommodate the new and existing players.
Villareal
Just like Valencia, Villareal is struggling for form. The team isn’t performing as we expected them to at the start of the season. They are ninth on the table with 21 points.
Although they are only three points away from the top four spots, they still have to face some challenging teams that can prove to be too difficult for the team.
In that case, they need to do better in the coming games if they want to make it into the European spots. Bouncing back is essential for the team to make them finish stronger.
As a result, we expect the team to do better once the games resume because they have players who can perform at the highest level and deliver more wins.
Sevilla
It is not looking good for Sevilla. The team is struggling, and they have not had any good run of form this season. After 14 games, Sevilla has only won two matches.
They lost 50% of their matches before the break, showing how terrible the team was, and as a result, they sit 18th on the log in the relegation zone, languishing with 11 points.
Sevilla is a solid team, and we don’t understand how they got into this situation. They were one of the best teams last season. But now, they’ve been terrible and are battling relegations.
We don’t think they would relegate, but the team needs to do something different once the season resumes so that they can finish higher on the La Liga standings when the season ends.
