Barcelona drew their last La Liga match against Girona, which helped them to go a step closer to winning the La Liga Santander title. Barcelona has been on a good track for a long, following their victory against Real Madrid at their home, and at present, they have taken another step forward to go close to the title, thanks to their win against Villarreal as well as their draw against Girona, that has eventually helped them secure a comfortable position, though a win from this situation would have been preferable always.
What is Barcelona’s equation to secure the La Liga title?
The gap is 13 points at present, and Los Blaugrana is engaged in doing maths and figuring out by when they could emerge as the champions of this league. There are still ten games to go, and it is a bit difficult to figure out exactly when the Catalan giant will seal the deal.
However, simple equations state that if Barcelona wins their upcoming matches, while Real Madrid, on the other hand, loses all of them, then they can be champions as early as Matchday 31. To achieve this earliest way, they have to defeat opponents like Atletico Madrid and Getafe, while the La Liga giants, Real Madrid, have to face defeat against Cadiz and Celta Vigo.
And next, in the showdown, if Barcelona could secure their win against Rayo Vallecano, they will receive three points more, and if Real Madrid could lose to Girona, Barca could be the champions of La Liga once again.
Atletico Madrid is an obstacle
However, Barcelona winning all the matches and Real Madrid facing defeat in them is not all that Barca needs. Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, also needs to lose (in addition to the direct clash against Barcelona on Matchday 30) one of the two matches against Almeria and Mallorca on Matchdays 29 and 31. It is to be seen what happens next.
