Real Madrid was lucky enoght to be in fight for the tittle against Girona and not against the big teams like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, but now they are gonna need to save players for the Champions League matches against Manchester CIty which is way more important than the domestic games right now. Lets see how much points they drop in this run.
You're right, Real Madrid should at least, concentrate on winning their next Champions League match rather than focusing just on becoming the La Liga championship. After all, Manchester City isn't a small club, we all know how they eliminated Real Madrid in the previous Champions League. Athletic Club is Real Madrid's next league opponent, three points are important in that game because Real Madrid is 8 points ahead of Barcelona in the standings. I don't think that point differential is good enough for Real Madrid to stay at the top of the league, so they must work hard every effort to win because Athletic Club is no longer a weak opponent and Barcelona is competing for the title race because Girona has become weak.
Sevilla have struggled hard in the Spanish La Liga for two consecutive season just to manage staying barely above the relegation zone on the table. Sevilla will be playing against Celta Vigo which are also struggling to fight for survival from relegation today. Since both of these teams are desperately in need of points, I guess this match between these two teams might ends up with a draw.
Sevilla's home defeat came at last. This season, Sevilla is still not ready, they draw their last away match against Almeria, who are unable to get out of the relegation zone. In yesterday's match against Celta Vigo, the same team that Real Madrid destroyed the previous two weekends, I was hoping to see some changes. Celta Vigo even had more goal attempts than Sevilla at their home ground. Sevilla's failure to sign quality players, in my opinion, is the main cause of their struggles to win games. If they were able to sign more players, I think their performance would be better. Sevilla will participate in the league and no other competitions next season.
