Real Madrid have no other choice other than winning or else they will complicate their own calculations for the title.
It was obvious that Barcelona and Atletico Madrid will win their games easily since their opponents are quite weak, sitting at the end of the table and trying to escape relegation.. For Real Madrid, they will face home Girona with a good odds in their favour and a recent history of defeating it without taking many goals.
Real Madrid have a third position temporarily before they complete the match with Girona. Any result rather than a win and 3 points, will not be helpful for Real Madrid to get a second or a first position after that. They have 3 points less than Barcelona and 2 points less than Atletico Madrid before a match with Girona.
Winning this match is mandatory for Real Madrid if they don't want to lose a first position to Barcelona and have to chase not only one but also two competitors after this weekend. Girona are weaker than themselves last season and their recent form is bad too, so 3 points for Real Madrid is my prediction.
In another competition, Villareal have 44 points and only 1 point less than Athletic Bilbao so Bilbao will need to win their match today as well for securing their fourth position in La Liga.
