Yes, this year's race seems to continue until the end of the season. Barcelona won all the matches played between Real Madrid and Barcelona. Moreover, Barcelona gained a clear advantage in these matches. In this respect, the game that Barcelona achieved in the matches played with Real Madrid makes them the natural favorite. Although Barcelona seems strong for the championship right now, it should not be forgotten that they are losing points even to the middle-ranking teams. The situation in the league can change at any time. Both Real Madrid and Barcelona seem to continue the fight until the end. Also, let's not forget Atletico Madrid, they are also in the championship race.
In the next two days, Barcelona is scheduled to play against Osasuna for the previously postponed match. Barcelona might create a gap if they win the match, but if they lose, then the points between Barcelona and Real Madrid remain equal. Barcelona plays at home against Osasuna, I think Barcelona deserves to be the favorite to win the match.
If Barcelona wins, then Barcelona will lead the standings with a gap of 3 points above Real Madrid. I am sure the competition will continue until the end of the season, especially if both teams maintain their performance. Hansi Flick doesn't want to waste the opportunity to create a points gap, that is a wish they must fulfill.
