The remaining fixtures and the chances of winning La Liga after Barcelona climbed to second place

The victory over Seville with a clean goal tonight boosted Barcelona’s hopes of competing for the La Liga title this season, as Xavi’s team came in second place with 57 points, 12 points behind leaders Real Madrid, but with a postponed match against Riao Vallecano.

The Catalan team played fewer matches (29 matches) than Real Madrid, who played 30 matches. Barcelona still has a game in hand against Rayo Vallecano, and if he wins it, he will reduce the difference to 9 points, with 8 rounds remaining until the end of La Liga.

First: La Liga standings after Round 30:

1- Real Madrid (played 30 matches) 69 points

2- Barcelona (played 29 games) 57 points

3- Atletico Madrid (played 30 matches) 57 points

4- Seville (played 30 matches) 57 points

8- Athletic Bilbao (played 30 matches) 44 points

9- Valencia (played 30 matches) 41 points

10- Osasuna (played 30 matches) 38 points

Second: Barcelona and Real Madrid’s chances of winning the title:

We must work at the outset that in the event that two or more teams are equal in points, direct confrontations will be applied, which is in favor of Barcelona, ​​which achieved a clear victory with four clean goals in the Santiago Bernabeu after Real Madrid won the Clasico in the first round with two goals to one at the Camp Nou.

Therefore, Real Madrid needs to win 5 matches and draw at least another match to win the title, regardless of the results of other teams. While Barcelona needs to win the remaining nine matches with Real Madrid losing three matches.
