Seems everything is falling apart for Real Madrid this season, they've been humiliated by most of these elite teams. There's alot on Carlo Ancelotti desk, he wouldn't give up so soon because there are more handling tasks to filled up and Real Madrid is the best team to execute this project. Real Madrid president wouldn't take it lightly if his team failed to thrash Arsenal on Wednesday when they meet. This is a crucial game for Los Blancos because they've failed woefully at Emirates, allowing Arsenal to humbled them 3 nil and now putting them in compromising positions.
Personally, I think Madrid will not be able to qualify for the Champions League semi-finals. Even then, Real Madrid will definitely try their best to win against Arsenal. However, one good thing is that after being eliminated from the Champions League, Madrid will be able to focus fully on La Liga. It will not be easy for Barcelona to hold on to the top spot in the table.
The point gap between Barcelona and Madrid is 4. This is not a very big point gap. If Real Madrid can defeat Barcelona in El Clasico on May 11, then Real Madrid can easily reduce the 4 point gap. Since Real Madrid's performance is inconsistent, Madrid cannot be considered as a favorite in El Clasico. Also, I am waiting to see the Copa del Rey final. Will Madrid lose again? Or will they avenge their previous defeat?
