The biggest match of the weekend could be this one, with Atletico Madrid facing Barcelona. Barcelona could move closer to the La Liga title with a win after Real Madrid lost to Mallorca.
There is a three-match series between these clubs that could shape their season. For Atletico Madrid, this is the least important one since they are too far behind the top but still comfortable in fourth place. Their focus is on next Wednesday’s first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals.
For Barcelona, the outlook is a little different, even if the continental competition could be a major distraction. If they win today, they could take control of the La Liga title race with seven points of margin, so they are putting everything. Raphinha’s injury with Brazil means Hansi Flick will not have him this month.
