Weekend La Liga Preview - Business as usual at the top as Barcelona and Real Madrid pull ahead

By Saheli RC, writing from Singapore

The real excitement in La Liga these days lie in the battle for the remaining European spots; as Espanyol, Valencia, Atlético Madrid, Getafe and Athletic Bilbao all vie for the last Champions League slot, and the subsequent Europa League places. This is the last round of play before the winter break starts and La Liga will pick up again in the first week of the New Year. This upcoming match day has an exciting series of line ups including the Catalan derby, and some truly sleep inducing ones as well where you’d be better off doing your laundry instead.
