Facing Las Palmas and Mallorca should not be a problem for the Barcelona squad in the upcoming match. The last 2 matches in La Liga were quite bad for Barcelona, and now they can no longer get bad results if they don't want their position to be replaced by Madrid.
Although Madrid is also not experiencing good things in the squad, they might still be able to threaten Barcelona's position. Moreover, with the difference in points, I also think Madrid can catch up.
It seems that the competition between these two rivals will last until the end of the season. It will be interesting rather than being dominated by one team that has a fairly large difference in points.
Las Palmas and Mallorca are two weak teams that Barcelona can handle perfectly, so i don't see them as a problem for Barcelona. What Barcelona should be concerned about now is how to maintain consistency so that Real Madrid will not meet them up in points and top the table. The competition is somehow becoming a pressure for Barcelona now because the gap between them and Real Madrid is very slim and if Barcelona drop points, Real Madrid can overtake them. I like the competition in the la liga, even though the competition is between the two dominant teams of the la liga but it's good that one among the other do not lead the league table with many points. If not for Real Madrid's injuries, i would say they can meet up points with Barcelona but since their form is not very dependable, it is hard for me to conclude but let's see how they can perform after the winter break in January.
Although Real Madrid is slumping in the UCL league, it seems that Real Madrid is starting to show its consistency in La Liga again. and this is what Barcelona must pay attention to in order to stay at the top, Barcelona must win again because in the last two matches they were only able to get one point. And on the other hand, Barcelona and Real Madrid must also be careful with the positive pace shown by Atletico Madrid, because lately Atletico Madrid has performed quite well and managed to get temporary points of 29, only one point away from Real Madrid and 5 points from Barcelona.
This season it seems that we will continue to be shown with tight competition between Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, the three teams will continue to compete to be able to occupy the top position in the standings.
