Yes, it's true what you said, before we look at Real Madrid's match against Girona, this Sunday is quite a difficult week for Real Madrid because they will play Atletico Madrid because Atletico Madrid is their arch enemy in the Madrid derby match. I hope Real Madrid doesn't lose in that match,
If this week both teams succeed in winning their opponents, of course the points will still be quite tight, namely 2 points. And the following week the difference in points will be determined. Because Girona will visit Real Madrid's headquarters, I am not so sure that Girona can win the match at Real Madrid's headquarters.
One thing we are not all realizing is the fact that head to head against the two teams contending for the league sometimes doesn’t matter but teams get carried away with this things and they end up losing to other clubs. This is the second half of the season aside the fight for the league there are other fights like that for European places and also those fights against relegation, the clubs competing for this two spots are mostly the clubs that ends up deciding the league title because you might see a title contender beating all his competitors and losing to this clubs which sometimes causes them the league. So my point has always been once the league is at this stage it is now, then treat every game as the final and that will help you garner more points just in case you need them. Head to head only matter when the clubs are tie on points
