Unlike the last season when Real Madrid had a poor performance and they couldn't get a good result, they are having a much better performance now even though they don't have their target forward Benzema in this team, I think Jude Blengham was the key player for Ancelotti and his team so far. Currently, Real Madrid got 75 points during all the 30 games they had in La Liga so far while in the second place of the table, Barcelona got only 67 points.
At the start of the season, I thought Real Madrid would have many problems because they couldn't hire Mbappe and Benzema left the team and I had more hope for Barcelona but it seems I was wrong however there are eight games left in La Liga and Barcelona should to see Real Madrid losing some points during these games.

A fairly narrow difference in points like that should make Girona even more enthusiastic about winning in the next match against Atletico Madrid. Maybe it will be quite difficult for Girona because the opponents they face this time are great players so Girona must keep trying hard to make the final score a draw or maybe Girona will be lucky enough to win this match. I'm sure Girona already understands that he can't lose this match so that the difference in points between second place is not too far.

La Liga have always been one of the most entertaining and complex league for clubs to anticipate and it only takes the best among the best to win. Barcelona and Girona will fight for second spot because I'm pretty confident regarding Real Madrid, they don't jeopardize their chances of winning and will always sits at the top. Carlo Ancelotti is here to ensure everything work according to the standards of Real Madrid. They're elite team and we expects them to always be positioned on the edge and not below the statistical data leveled against them.

I doubt if Girona can perform like this next season, even though they qualify for next season's UEFA Champions League. Since Girona's performance this season in La Liga is good, big clubs will want to sign some of Girona's best players when the La Liga season ends. This will make Girona perform poorly next season because they will be without their best players.

The rivalry between Barcelona and Real Madrid can still be expected to make the El Clasico match very tight for both of them. I agree that Real Madrid is superior to Barcelona in terms of performance and points scored, but Barcelona is basically not an easy team. They could be a threat to Real Madrid for the rest of the season if Real Madrid fails to win 2 wins in 2 consecutive matches, but I personally don't expect that.

Barcelona and Girona will both maintain their form for the remainder of the season to remain in the top 4 of the standings. Barcelona no longer has any hope of winning the title and competing with Real Madrid, so I think they are done and that's it.

Girona is indeed quite a concern this season because they are building their strength quite well, this certainly gives joy to the management and also their fans who are not famous and are now being discussed in many media, yes, their reputation is slowly rising this season.

The difference with Barcelona is quite thin, only has 2 points difference and it can be pursued if Barcelona makes another mistake in the next match, yes of course if you talk about whether you can pass Real Madrid or not, the answer is definitely no because it is far enough that even Barcelona itself has difficulty and will be able to catch up as its eternal rival.

 In a few recent games, Bilbao have been able to show strength and charisma to winning games. They've safely been tagged underrated and not really focused on but looking deep, they're making waves. Even their betting odds would speak for them. They are a team practically growing into a La Liga threat club. They've had competitive games and ensured they kept up their pace making the result of the game be either to their favour or a fair draw. Girona and Vallecano are a testament of the fact.

 It's good how Spanish teams are starting to face the uprising of the beat and live through letting just 3 teams be the talk about of the league. Currently the likes of Girona,  Real Sociedad too and definitely Bilbao are outshining in their deeds and it's amazing to watch how football has become even more interesting this season in the Spanish league. For Mallorca, they're a competitive side, resilient and relentless too. It's amazing to watch them so far this season.

 They're definitely underrated regardless of the fact they've not really had good number of victories, they've definitely put up a tough battle for teams and it's something to be impressed about.
They did well in their games against the big teams in the league and yes being below on the league table standings is not really a determinant as to how good a team can actually be. It's just a matter of being unlucky though. I believe they've in their games so far learnt useful lessons that will always be a point to watch ahead of every subsequent encounters.

So far, even though there is talk about Mbappe going to Real Madrid, there is no certainty regarding several of Real Madrid's future players. However, Mbappe's position will not displace other players. They each have important roles that can actually support each other more optimally. So far there has been no special and serious discussion regarding this matter. Because after all, Rodrygo is also one of Real Madrid's top players at the moment.

Anywa, Real Madrid is currently playing a match against Man City in the Champions League. At first I was very enthusiastic when Real Madrid was leading. But in the end... Yes, just enjoy the various results, the hope is that Real Madrid will win this leg because they are the hosts. But on the other hand, it is not that much of a problem for City.

In fact, currently Man City is even superior to Real Madrid. Sad, I am a fan of Real Madrid. but, keep it up and never give up until the end.
2 - 3 (Man City leading currently)

Girona currently continues to put pressure on Barcelona in La Liga, although actually the third position will also play in the Champions League next season, but still at this time Girona wants to be able to keep their chances of ending the season as high as possible even though the first rank has escaped their grasp this season, with a difference of 2 points of course the opportunity for Girona to shift Barcelona's position in second place still wide open at this time and certainly with the rest The current match is still 8 more so everything could happen at the end of the season.

I think for now Girona just need to focus on living the rest of their games consistently to win without thinking about other teams, let alone hoping Barcelona will lose because it will only burden and destroy their concentration later, I think even if they fail to reach second place of course the third position will still be proud for Girona who did come as a team that has been not favored so far in La Liga,  At the moment Girona must focus on winning the remaining games not just to shift Barcelona position in the standings, because the main thing for Girona is to avoid the pursuit of Atletico Madrid and also Bilbao who are now below them.

It's not that easy to gain the trust of big sponsors. This is the first season for Girona who has the opportunity to go to UCL. For next reason, top sponsors may not have made Girona as a sponsorship target. There are many considerations, starting from
- Club value
- Player values
- Team consistency
- Supporter loyalty
- Club broadcasting rights
- etc.
From the points above it is clear that it is not yet time for corporate sponsors/investors to decide to become club sponsors. But, with its current achievements, it can at least set tariffs/cooperation contracts with a higher nominal value.

Catching up to Madrid seems impossible, no matter Barcelona winning streaks, I believe same will be applicable to Madrid cause their chances of losing any of their upcoming games is slight, even if they should draw or lose in any game they won't lose too consecutively, this will make Barca unable to catch up. Mean while it is advisable that Barca even while in the race for the Champions league title do not neglect on enhancing their performance to aswell maintain their position in this table, any slight mistakes from Barca is sending Girona up there, also having very close goal difference meaning Barca has to put out their best performance in both title race even for the Champions league race title, they do not present as the favorite to win the league.

Girona are only 2 points behind Barcelona so it's not a big problem Girona are still playing well enough and they have the ability to do well this season. their team management is getting better due to which they are able to show better performance quickly. However, Real Madrid play much better than before and with enough good players in their squad, they are able to perform well on a regular basis.  So while Girona can get past Barcelona, ​​I doubt they can do the same against Real Madrid.

Granada and Almeria will surely go to relegation due to the already accumulated points.
Almeria won just one match since the beginning of the season and they lost 20 matches, while Granada won just two matches so far. They both have 13 and 14 points respectively which they can never survive this season because the points are too low for them to remain in the Laliga.
Cadiz should also join them because they are not in good form as they used to be, they have 25 points three points behind Celta Vigo. I don’t think Cadiz can pass Celta Vigo in terms of points even though they can both battle for it. I think Celta is in a good position to remain in the Laliga because they seem to have a better performance lately than Cadiz.


Looking at the points difference, I think it is only Cadiz that will find it difficult to meet up with the rest because they already have at least three points and above ahead of them.

With the position and points that Barca is on, I don't think that there is any need for them to start trying to meet up with Real Madrid when they have important competition to play like the champions league. No matter what the outcome of the laliga matches would be at the w d of the season Barca will go to the champions league next season. It is better for them to put more attention on playing PSG than thinking of Girona or Real Madrid.

Yes, actually, Girona is just having good luck this season and actually it is also one of Girona's opportunities to be able to get big investors if they can stay at least in the top 3 positions and if Girona can be successful in the best ranking to end this match, of course some big investors will have a little confidence to give funds to Girona and buy more quality players.
All of this only seems in vain when a team like Girona who has no experience in the top flight will definitely experience a decline in performance towards the end of the season because popular teams are better able to know how to reclaim the top 3 position and maintain it while Girona has no experience in this matter. .

In last 10 rounds, with the worst performance from the Girona they were able to secure 16 points and Atlético Madrid having 17 and Athletic Bilbao having 15 and difference of goals were 4 for all mean their quality on level and things are surely not easy for the teams to bring down Girona from their fourth spot chance because they have already done good job and having enough success which will give them chance for the next season Champions League and in remaining 8 games we will have some tough challenging matches as well.

Even we are having some significant improvement in few teams performance but still things are well under control for the Girona to have their chance and do the best in future as well because they are having owners which can spend huge funds for the improvement of quality and things well under control for the best in the future as well.

For now Girona still has a good record on this league because they are still on a good position and however there is no way Girona will end up on 5 position of this league regardless of there lapses lately because right now apart from Real Madrid and Barcelona I don't think there is any team good enough to easily bring Girona down from the third position of the table, however from there performance you will see that they seem more comfortable on there current position because they no that they will never have chance against Real Madrid, so they feel the best way is to maintain there position on the table in other for them to qualify for champions league next season.

In my opinion, Girona's potential to enter the UCL is very wide open this season. The reason is, as you said, Girona, who is currently in 3rd position, has a fairly large point difference with the teams in 4th and 5th positions in La Liga. So there is no need to doubt Girona's fate this season. The reason is that all this time Girona has always played quite well and even experienced the top position in La Liga. This gives a clear picture that Girona does have very good quality and it is not a coincidence that Girona can reach its current position. So basically don't assume that Girona is a team that has only been in the first division (Laliga) for a few seasons and will have difficulty staying in the top 4. Because in reality, in the last two seasons, Girona has always appeared pretty consistent. So I personally have no doubts about Girona regarding their chances of qualifying for the UCL.

And, Girona's match against Atletico Madrid will take place this week. In my opinion, this match will not make Girona's position in the La Liga standings unsafe. The reason is that in this match, Girona has the potential to win or draw. Because if you look at the last meeting between Girona and Atletico Madrid, the result was won by Girona (although they won narrowly). So in this match the benchmarks will not be much different from previous meetings. Therefore, I assume Girona has a chance to win the match or draw against Atletico Madrid.

Didn't mean to disrespect Girona, but if they can't finish at least in the top 5 positions, I don't think the effort they spent are worth because they need to get something. People don't care with the process, they need to see the results.

Since Girona has been fell from the first position, Girona won't able to make good amount of money by selling their players since other teams will think they were just lucky.

The point is, Barcelona must maintain its ranking in the top four of the La Liga standings. Since Barca is currently in the runner up position, it is appropriate for them to maintain it rather than experience a decline in ranking. Moreover, if Barca loses momentum towards a Champions League ticket. So, it's natural for Barcelona to defend its title, especially since Barcelona is one of the elite teams in this competition. As for Girona, they could overtake Barcelona's position. However, with the same unstable performance, plus having several crucial matches, it seems difficult for Girona to become runners up until the end of this competition. After all, as you said, the most important thing is that staying in the top four is enough to be able to compete again in the Champions League next season.

By the way, that doesn't mean Barcelona can't catch Real Madrid at the top of the standings with 8 games remaining. However, it will be very difficult for Barcelona, ​​considering the condition of Barcelona itself, as well as Real Madrid's performance which is currently in a positive trend. So, the most ideal thing is to maintain consistency in La Liga and do his job with his best game in the Champions League. because, to overthrow Paris Saint-Germain is not an easy matter. There are not many choices, Xavi must focus more on the most ideal position for his squad. At the very least, in Xavi's final season with Barcelona, ​​he must do his best, including overthrowing PSG in the quarter-finals.
