Girona failed to get full points after being held to a 0-0 draw by Real Sociedad, this result certainly benefits Real Madrid indirectly in making expand the difference in points in the standings. The conditions are a little tough, because their opponents are Atletico, a derby match that is no less interesting than El Clasico. If successful, Madrid will lead the standings by 4 points, and this is the best opportunity that should be taken advantage of. If it fails, Atletico will move up to third place in the standings and displace Barcelona again. of course, Xavi hopes that Madrid can help beat Atletico so that Barcelona can comfortably be in third place.
It's difficult to maintain consistency until the end of the season for any club, in the end Girona started to have a little difficulty getting wins, that's what is of course a worry when being consistent from the start suddenly the game starts to fade a little towards the end of the season, I think Girona doesn't really have a busy schedule compared to Madrid but it seems they are starting to get a little tired so they are not consistent in winning against Sociedad today. that's an undesirable result.
The derby match will of course be decisive if Madrid is able to beat Atletico of course it will make Madrid firmly at the top of the standings and keep their distance from Girona until the end of the season, although there is still a chance for Girona but Madrid seems to have a winning mentality compared to Girona, it seems Madrid will retaliate Their previous defeat was when they were knocked out by Atletico Madrid in the Copa Del Rey, their meeting will of course be very tight because both of them want to win to keep their position safe.
