Barça’s failure at Villamarín makes Real Madrid depend on itself again to win La Liga. If they win in Montilivi, the whites would be 2 points behind the lead, with one game less

Real Madrid will play their match against Girona tonight, just 5 points behind Barça, after his puncture at Villamarín against Real Betis. The white team, with two games less (tonight’s one and the postponed one against Valencia), once again depends on itself to be League champion. There is a lot left, it is true, and as Ancelotti said, “nothing is won in December”, but the reality is that Flick’s Barcelona is going through a bad moment and Real Madrid must take advantage of it.

Ferran’s goal put Barça ahead and placed Flick’s team within 7 points of Real Madrid, but Betis’s tie equalized the forces and took 2 points away from the leader. Therefore, Real Madrid, which already had to face the duel in Gerona as a “final”, is now even more so, if you want to win to be within 2 points with one less game.

For the duel in Montilivi, Carlo Ancelotti will not be able to count on Rodrygo, who was dropped from the squad at the last minute. Madrid will look for victory after the setback in Bilbao and thus continue to stalk Barcelona and add even more spice, if possible, to La Liga. Transcendent duel for the championship. Practically, a final. Carletto already said it: “We are still in the fight and we will continue to do so, as always.”
