While La Liga's title race is becoming clearer, the battle for fourth place is like a storm cloud, and a fierce melee is about to unfold. In the standings, from Sevilla to Valencia, all the giants are fighting for the precious ticket to the Champions League.
Atletico's recent three-game losing streak has cost them the La Liga title, and with a 13-point gap to leaders Real Madrid, the dream of defending the title is slipping away. If the goal is to qualify for the Champions League, Simeone's team may still have a chance to catch up, but the depth of their squad still has an advantage over their rivals. As long as they are properly adjusted, their chances of qualifying for the Champions League should not be underestimated.
Barcelona earned a hard-earned 3-2 win in a thrilling match. Currently, Barcelona (with one game less) are three points behind fourth-placed Rayo Vallecano and still have room to catch up. It can be said that Barcelona still has a chance of survival in the situation of qualifying for the Champions League, and Coach Xavi even has room to make mistakes. If the coach Harvey, who took over in the middle of the season, can lead the team to realize the dream of Champions League, it will undoubtedly make Barcelona fans satisfied.
