With the La Liga title all but gone — and Barcelona potentially celebrating their championship this very weekend — a battered Real Madrid side must refocus and face relegation-threatened Real Oviedo. What should be a straightforward fixture comes loaded with irony: Los Blancos, the most decorated club in football history, playing out a meaningless end-of-season fixture while their fiercest rivals party. Here’s everything you need ahead of this La Liga clash.

The State of Play
Real Madrid currently rank 2nd in La Liga, while Real Oviedo sit in 20th position — rock bottom of the table. For Oviedo, this is a fight for La Liga survival. For Madrid, it is damage limitation after a season that has fallen spectacularly apart. PC Quest
Real Oviedo have lost just twice in their previous five matches despite sitting bottom — a small but genuine uptick in form that gives them hope of avoiding the drop. Madrid, meanwhile, have endured Champions League elimination, a Copa del Rey exit to Albacete, and a dressing room bust-up that made global headlines. Arbeloa’s side desperately needs a performance — and three points. X
