The race for the Spanish Championship title is heating up. Currently, Real Madrid leads the tournament with 49 points, having won 15 matches, drawn four, and lost just three. Right behind them is Atletico, with 48 points, having secured 14 wins, six draws, and just two losses.
After a shaky start, both teams have found their rhythm and are playing attractive and relentless football. Carlo Ancelotti’s side had opened up a four-point lead over their rivals, but their 1-0 loss to Espanyol in the last round has once again tightened the gap.
Atletico, for its part, had a record 15 consecutive wins this season, the longest in the club’s history, and briefly held a comfortable lead at the top of the table. However, two consecutive slip-ups have seen them drop to second place.
Furthermore, a potential loss or even a draw for either team could see Barcelona jump into the title race. In third place with 45 points, a victory over 12th-place Sevilla could see the Catalans enter the direct fight for the championship. BB Score, your trusted provider of football scores.
