Atletico Madrid remaining 9 points left from Barcelona and small chance for winning La Liga trophy in this season, but have 9 matches left depend with Barcelona and Real Madrid matches result keep consistent secure three points or not. Considering 9 matches left in La Liga, Atletico Madrid not face any top standings team except Real Betis at last games week if can secure all three points matches left actually still have chance if Barcelona and Madrid losses points.
I doubt if Atletico Madrid will top Real Madrid in the second position of LaLiga table, no matter how best they play. What they will achieve in this season is to qualify for the Champions League match next season. Any other thing apart from that, I don't see them achieving that by beating Real Madrid and Barcelona in the pursuit of lifting the LaLiga trophy. The LaLiga trophy this season is between Real Madrid and Barcelona, the lucky team wins it with little points gap against the other.
Real Madrid are probably losing their confidence, they lost three points in the last match against Valencia in the La Liga points table. If Real Madrid continues to play like this and lose points, then there is a high chance of moving to the third position in the points table, yes, since
AtleticoAtlético Madrid is only three points behind them at the moment, so they will fight with excitement. If
AtleticoAtlético Madrid can play strongly, then there is a possibility of taking over Real Madrid's position. Moreover, Real Madrid will be deprived of winning the La Liga trophy this season, they are already four points behind Barcelona, so the possibility is very low. Moreover, looking at Real Madrid's performance in the last match, it seems very confusing, maybe the possibility of winning with Arsenal in the Champions League is very low.
