8 points are not that safe for Real Madrid as much as possible. Real Madrid must continue to distance themselves from Barcelona and Girona even though it is very difficult for Girona to catch up or overtake Barcelona and Real Madrid. It seems that Girona will look for safety to remain in 3rd place in the standings, Barcelona will continue looking to get points after points in every match because that's the only way for them to get trophies this season and they don't want to end the season without getting any trophies from this season.
Actually, remaining 8 points is not secure yet for Real Madrid to lead first standings position and try for winning La Liga season 2023/24, but have good chance to make 11 points remaining for upcoming match if Madrid defeat Barcelona at el clasico match. Acceptable or not, Barcelona will not winning any tittle yet in this season after eliminating from Copa del Rey and Champion League very difficult to stop Real Madrid at the winning trend awhile after their confident winning in quarter final champion league last match.
El Clasico is the determining factor for Barcelona to win the La Liga title this season, if they fail to get three points the chance of getting the title this season is very slim with difference of 11 points and Real Madrid's matches remaining dominance facing weakness opponent teams.
