The question remains: will Barcelona win the La Liga title?

After the sweeping victory in the Clasico and the return of the spirit and collective performance, it became a project that raised this question, according to the Madridist newspaper "Marca".

The newspaper close to Real Madrid says that Barcelona played a lesser match, and if it beat Rayo Vallecano, it would reduce the difference with "Merengue" to 9 points, and it would be keen not to waste any point and wait for the Real's lapses and how it affects its players the big loss in the Clasico.

But the advantage that the Spanish capital team has is that it has the title in its hands, and this depends on its performance in the remaining matches, and in order to lose the title, it must defeat in 3 matches out of the remaining 9, which is the same number that Real lost in the season so far, as for Barcelona, ​​the mistake No loss or draw.

Factors in favor of Barca
