Madrid managed to get 3 points back and Girona lost again which makes the current conditions even better for Madrid because they are running alone in the title race now considering the current point difference of 10 points with Girona and 11 points with Barcelona. Although Barcelona haven't played a game yet as they will play tomorrow but seeing as the opponent is Atletico this could be another advantage for Madrid in the trophy race as Barcelona and Atletico are still one of the big clubs after all and this big match is likely to be troublesome for each other.

Madrid managed to get a good win in this match and the fact that there is no Jude is also not a problem for them, especially with Brahim as an option, this is actually a good thing for Madrid.
The 4-3-3 scheme they used last season also worked well and the match was much livelier.
I like Ancelotti's options now because we have a very good situation that we can see from Madrid's performance.

The opportunity for Real madrid to secure the trophy is wide open because their closest competitors are completely unable to show their consistency in competing for the title. In week 29, Real madrid won full points while Girona lost points, which shows the instability of Girona performance making the distance between the two points even greater. For Real madrid, of course they will lock up the title early if they see their quite impressive performance in every match they play.

Girona defeat certainly opens up opportunities for Barcelona to overtake them. Xavi squad will play tomorrow where Barcelona will visit Atletico madrid headquarters. I think this match is quite tough but if Barcelona focuses well I think they can take advantage of the opportunity to get full points and move up to 2nd place. Apart from that I see the team The teams fighting for position 4 are increasingly fierce where Bilbao and Atletico Madrid continue to compete to secure their position.

If Real Madrid cannot finish in the first position of the table I don't know what to say. And the same goes for Barcelona if they cannot finish in the second position. Because they have a real chance right now.

Now the problem is the match Barcelona is going to play the next day against Atletico Madrid. And for Atletico Madrid, it is also a must-win match. Because if Atletico Madrid loses this match they will stay in the 5th position.

Winning this match is essential for both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid because both of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are not going to go to the second and fourth position if they do not win. Even if they drop points and get 1 point from this match each it is not going to be enough because they do not have a good goal difference. I think we are going to see a winner in this match.
