La Liga action dominates our thinking this weekend following the drama and excitement of the three UEFA competitions settled in midweek. We now have a final pairing for the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League, which our team of content writers will cover in detail closer to the time. Until then, we will shine the spotlight on the top tier of professional football in Spain, where Saturday’s schedule brings four games.
The action begins at 13:00 when Mallorca hosts Las Palmas in a game that’s sure to whet the appetite for a hectic afternoon. Villareal then hosts Sevilla from 15:15 before Granada plays Real Madrid at 17:30, and Athletic Club welcomes Osasuna from 20:00 GMT. We focus on the champions as they aim to bag another big win when visitors Granada. Will Real Madrid claim the victory as expected?
Granada is always a welcome addition to La Liga, but this campaign has been painful to watch for supporters and everyone connected to the club. They started the week down in 19th position, with only Almeria below them in the pecking order. Why is Granada facing relegation from La Liga? A quick check on their stats shows the home team has won just four of 34 games this season, scoring 36 goals but conceding 64. They’re miles off safety despite taking seven of the last dozen points available.
Granada enjoyed a late flurry as they went three games unbeaten when collecting two wins and a draw before slumping to a 21st defeat of the season last time. They now have nothing to play for other than pride, but that’s more than enough for fans who demand the club bow out with some pride before dropping a level. Will they score a rare win over Real Madrid at home to delight their suffering support?
Real Madrid won the title back from Barcelona this season and it was nothing short of what they deserve following a strong campaign. Blancos enter round 35 of the season sitting atop the division with their stats showing 27 wins, six draws, and just one defeat with 74 goals scored and 22 conceded. They travel on a long winning streak and are favourites to secure victory again. Will they get the job done and cross the line in style? Most pundits think so.
Real Madrid has been almost untouchable this season, and some fans may curse at their luck after seeing the team go agonisingly close to an invincible campaign. They’ve lost just one game from 34 outings, but regaining the title was the priority, and they did that in some style, finishing well clear of Girona and Barcelona. It was a real show of strength from Blancos, who are worthy champions of Spanish football.
Neither team needs the win here, as Granada is already relegated, and Real Madrid is confirmed as champions. With some bigger games on the horizon, the visitors could rotate their squad and rest a few key players. Granada is playing for pride and will want to give the best-emerging talent a chance to shine before the watching world.
Let’s keep this simple and remember that this game pairs a soon-to-be-relegated team with a champion. Real Madrid is expected to win, and if they are anywhere near their best and play a strong team, they should have the skills and character to fight through and secure yet another three points.
