How to watch La Liga: Live stream the Spanish football league anywhere online
Real Madrid are just one win away from claiming their first La Liga title since the 2016-2017 season
La Liga is turning out to be one of the most tightly-contested European football league finishes with arch-rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona separated by just three points with only two games remaining this season. Both teams play their final games this week and fans will be eager to see whether Los Blancos can stop Barca from winning a hat-trick of La Liga titles.
For most of the season, both teams were neck-to-neck. Barcelona had a comparatively fitter roster, however, as Real Madrid’s Marco Ascencio had a potentially season-ending injury in the opening stages of the competition while new signing Eden Hazard was simultaneously coping with injury concerns of his own. During that time, Barcelona were conceding goals, but also scoring aplenty with their lethal strike force of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Antoine Griezmann.
Then the unexpected and extended three-month coronavirus break hit and this seemed to tilt the scales in favour of Zinedine Zidane’s side as Asencio and Hazard returned to full fitness, giving goal-machine Karin Benzema some much-needed support up front. Barcelona still held a slight advantage but successive draws at the end of June saw a change of fortunes at the top of the table. Since then, Real Madrid haven’t dropped a game. Apart from a 3-point advantage with two games in hand, Los Merengues also have a better goal difference (65) than Barcelona (79).
Atletico Madrid have also done well since the break to all but secure third position with 78 points. Sevilla will be gunning for the final Champions League spot with 72 points, though Villareal (67 points) also have an outside chance of clinching the spot should something go woefully amiss with Sevilla this week. At the bottom of the La Liga table, Espanyol will be relegated after spending 85 out of 89 seasons in the top-flight Spanish division.
