This season's calendar put the Clasico back at a time when it could define the title a little, or on the contrary, leave it totally open.

FC Barcelona and Real Madrid are the only two candidates to contest LaLiga of here to the end, or until the white team can follow the rhythm that the ones of Xavi have imposed in the tournament. The club merengue is following an almost identical rhythm to the of the past season when it was champion, but this has them to 7 points of a Barça that forgave this Sunday in Almería the opportunity to move away to 10 units.

With this panorama, and the Classical of turn in LaLiga in little more than 20 days, both teams will have to contest 15 parties more to complete the campaign in the Spanish championship. In the half of all this, and beginning this Thursday, will be the eliminatory to double party in the semifinal of the Glass of Rey, as well as the turn of eighth and more than likely classification to chambers of the Madrid in Champions.

By these two last points, and already with the Barça without European competition, will be important that both clubs can begin to stage where his rival could leave points on the way. In first instance, the next three parties of both teams, and with the gone of the Glass in half, do not seem at all simple and could mean that this difference of 7 points expanded definitively, or turn to reduce .

The next weekend the ones of Xavi will receive in the Camp Nou to Valencia CF that changed of trainer and is, once again, in his mission to be still in the maximum category of the Spanish football. It will do it without his trainer and with a Gavi that will fulfil day of sanction, as well as the drops of Pedri and Dembélé, the one who is in his final phase of recovery. By his part, the Madrid will have a complicated visit to the Real Betis in the Villamarín.

In the previous to the third duel of this small list, which will confront them to both in Barcelona, the culés will have to visit Saint Mamés and there the white team confronting to the Espanyol like venue could await a tie to arrive to the Classical of the next 19 March to only 5 points. All this conditions to the ones of Xavi to go back to his best version, especially of visitor, where great two defeats to the thread if we take into account the Europe League.

After the Classical, the Barcelona team will have three much handier meetings, just before receiving to the Athletic of Madrid of Simeone. Already thinking in one differentiates average of 7 or 8 points between both teams, the Barça could ensure the title of League in the Day 36 visiting to the Real Valladolid, or in the case to be less points between culés and merengues, the crash in front of the Mallorca like venue in the following day would define everything.
