Spain’s La Liga is currently in a critical phase, with Barcelona likely to win their first title under manager Hansi Flick. Following their dramatic 4-3 victory in El Clasico against Real Madrid, Barcelona holds a seven-point lead with just three games left in the season. They are set to potentially clinch the title this week if they manage to defeat Espanyol on Thursday, provided that Real Madrid, coached by Carlo Ancelotti, does not slip up against Mallorca at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Despite a setback in the UEFA Champions League against Arsenal, Real Madrid remains a formidable force, especially with the recent signing of French star Kylian Mbappe. However, Barcelona’s performance has outshone them this season, scoring significantly more goals.
