There is very slim hope for Girona this season when Atletico Madrid and Atletic Bilbao continue to chase down the points difference that Girona currently has while Girona is starting to lose a little of its consistency.
I don't think there is any need to have high hopes for Girona because this club is just one of the promoted clubs that can get tickets to UEL which is already a very good experience.
Girona still needs a lot of experience before they can get a ticket to the Champions League.
Just look at Girona, who are getting closer to the end of the season, actually losing consistency, so what if that happens in the Champions League, they will definitely fail too.
I'm not sure Girona is able to compete with other elite clubs in the UCL because they have more experience in the UCL compared to Girona who have just entered the tiger cage and will be an easy target for stronger clubs. Yes, at least being able to get a UCL ticket is a big achievement for Girona even though he is not the favorite in this big competition.

Girona made a big surprise this season but unfortunately they were unable to make a surprise until the end of the season, and that is normal for Real Madrid's existence at the top of the standings. Indeed, the difference in quality between Girona and Real Madrid is quite significant, making it very difficult for Girona to be able to compete with them.

Currently, Girona only needs to maintain its position and be able to finish in the top 4 in order to get a ticket to the Champions League next season and that would be an extraordinary achievement.
However, I am a little pessimistic about Girona's team management to make this team much more developed in the next season because of course because of the good performance of some of their players this season they will be targeted by many other teams which will make it a little difficult for Girona to retain them or bring in other quality players.

I think everything happens for a reason, and this is a good start for Girona. Being a club that joined the La Liga Championship in 2017, to have risen to the third position currently held by them, is a great height achieved so far. If the club can continue like this, they are probably going to come in at second above Barcelona, which will be another great accomplishment for the team.

 Regardless, if they don't go to the second position and continue to maintain the position they currently hold, due to the very few matches that are left, then Girona would have already qualified to the Champions League, which also means that they are ready to join the champions this season. Amazing. An encouraging step taken by such a growing club within a short time.

To be honest Girona made this season to be interesting with their performance because the laliga league have always been known for Real Madrid and Barcelona.  When the the season started all eyes were on Girona because before now this team used to be a struggling team in laliga but this season they were leading the league but I'm not surprise to see Real Madrid at the top of the league because Real Madrid is a team that can always get what they want .

Im so impressed with the effort of Girona this season, even if they lose the top position to Real Madrid atleast they found a better position and I know they will be among the top four team of the league this season.

I agree with you; with Barcelona's situation, they cannot win against Real Madrid when they meet for the second time in La Liga. Real Madrid is at another level in La Liga, and Barcelona does not have the type of players who will match Real Madrid shoulder-to-shoulder this season in La Liga.

Not only is there a small chance but it is also impossible to steal 3 points from Real Madrid with Barcelona's current situation.
Without me explaining, everyone knows how the financial crisis as well as a shortage of players and several injuries have made Barcelona unable to match the strength of Real Madrid.
It is possible that last season Barcelona might still be able to, but for this season it has to be said that Real Madrid will still lock in the La Liga title this season without having a strong opponent.

Girona's performances have surprised us all since the start of the season. We cannot predict whether this team will be in the top 10 of the points table. However, the Girona team has been occupying the top spot in the points table for a long time due to their excellent performance. However, due to erratic performances in the last few matches, the Girona team is now third in the table.

Although Girona have performed well this season, their squad is not strong enough. The squad lacks experienced players. This is the reason why in the last matches we see the erratic performance of Girona's players. If the Girona management takes the necessary steps to strengthen their squad next season, Girona will be in contention for the title next season as well.

Not any la liga match in this week and matchday 32 will play next week, I think La Liga operator looking an opportunity give more rest after having three participant teams will play in Champion League quarter final match such Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico. Champion League is the most important agenda and La Liga want to see with potential La Liga team final match in Champion League this season.

Real Madrid lead the top position standing awhile has 8 points left from Barcrlona, I don't sure with Madrid position catch up by Barcelona and both team face each other two game week later. Surely Real Madrid have been favorite team for winning La Liga tittle in this season and easily if el clasico match Madrid can beat Barcelona.

Yeah their performance wasn't short of been stellar. Reminded me of Leicester city then when they won the EPL. Well in 100 years who's to say the top best would remain the same.  We have seen past records of clubs that boast of winning more than one UCL and they have declined out of first division league. The performance in the early half of the season helped boost their confidence. If they do end at the top 4 in the La liga table, then there would be more drive to do better next season but if not, I think their performance this year would be a fluke compare how they would next season. Let's see how it goes.
All I know is that my Club has the trophy
Hala Madrid!!!!

I have heard this many times no official confirmation from barcelona regarding this. I know that cancelo has contributed a lot to the club and he's worthy enough to be a permanent transfer. City's asking price became the main obstacle owned by barceona to make him as permanent transfer since barcelona demands lower price for him.
Barcelona can probably send an option to exchange him, but it sounds like the city will not be interested in it. Cancelo may return to manchester city again next season if Barcelona can't afford to pay his price to manchester city.
It's not yet clear what's gonna be the final deal between barcelona and city. Lona is still trying to convince city to decrease his price.

As a mediocre team, of course no one expected if Girona could appear very Spartan in the league this season, their performance since the season began was very surprising and even they were able to last long enough this season at the top of the standings before finally Madrid took over, only with modest players but Sanchez Munoz managed to break the dominance that had been happening between Barcelona and Madrid in La Liga,  Sanchez Munoz's strategizing skills and also the motivation of the Girona squad can make them penetrate the top 4 and at the same time surprise Madrid and Barcelona.

I think Girona's failure to win La Liga this season is of course very disappointing but at least they still have a chance to play in the Champions League next season, besides that with the presence of Girona certainly makes the competition in La Liga more competitive and I hope Girona will be able to continue to be a champion contender every season, so that Madrid and Barcelona will be able to get a lot of pressure from other teams such as Girona and Atletico Madrid.

I just realized that there are no matches in La Liga this week, is there an important agenda that requires the league to be closed for 1 week? the other major leagues are still active this week and the UCL agenda starts on the 10th, does anyone know the info?

Then, regarding the La Liga title race, currently Real Madrid is at the top of the standings with 75 points while Barcelona is below them with 67 points, in your opinion, do you think Barcelona can catch Real Madrid with 8 matches remaining (24 points accumulated by a full win).


Since this is a global board, it would be better if you include English language sources. Can be replaced with this one (from the same platform): https://www.goal.com/en/lists/barcelona-sign-joao-cancelo-man-city-asking-price-permanent-transfer/blte92f19cea9138dcc

The La Liga competitive race is here and only the available of top clubs will become strong enough to take up levelled raise. Girona would have become one of the promising club but they've slide behind and they're unable to meet up the necessary targets required of the team. Real Madrid and Barcelona have proven to be one of the tough clubs this season and they're always on sights to trigger winning. While Girona will be settling for the UCL qualifying spot, they just have to become prominent and consistent in winning matches.

I don't think, Barcelona can win three matches to embrace three points from those matches because they are going to be meeting strong teams that will strength them and if they are not careful they will not take victory from them. I have seen many things that will not make Barcelona to reach that first position in the la Liga league table, because Real Madrid is ahead of them with many points and they will not allow any mistakes that will make their points to reduce. Based on what Real Madrid has displayed in this season for the whole world to see, I think Real Madrid will be the team that will embrace the title in this season and Barcelona will take second position, because Girona has experienced some challenges that will make them not to reach the second position again.

As you will get many more opportunities to bet, from my side I would definitely refrain from betting on this match. Betting on this match is very risky because in this match Real Madrid can win at any moment and Manchester City can make a difference at any moment and if we take a win or a loss for a team it is not unusual that the result will be a draw. Considering these aspects I plan to enjoy Manchester City vs Real Madrid match but I will not bet on any team in this match. You said yourself that the outcome of this match is more likely to be fifty-fifty. You can catch 33% without catching the result fifty-fifty. That is, Real Madrid has a 33% chance of winning this match, and Manchester City has a thirty-three percent chance of winning, and a 33% chance of a draw. 
It is better not to bet on this match by accepting so many challenges.

Girona's achievements throughout this season are indeed worthy of appreciation because this club is an ordinary club but was able to become a top club because they appeared consistent since the start of the season and competed with Real Madrid at the top of the standings, but unfortunately Girona's concentration did not last long as they experienced a decline towards the end of the season which caused his position to drop to 3rd place and was overtaken by Barcelona.

It's quite difficult to break the dominance of top clubs which throughout history have always been the best in the league, but Girona has used his time well this season because he was able to stay in the top 4. And thanks to Girona's good performance, next season he will experience competing in the Champions League for the first time he is taking part in the biggest competition in Europe and he will prepare for next season by recruiting the players needed to support their performance next season because competing in the Champions League is very difficult for clubs that have no experience there.

I hope that Girona's performance in the future will still be like this and get better so that he can become a challenger for the next title so that we not only see Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid who always dominate the league but we also see Girona among them.

There are no league games this weekend. Of course this can be used by the club to rest and train. Another rumour I heard about Joao Cancelo. Barcelona reportedly want to have him permanently. But Man City set the price quite high. Man City want Barcelona to pay €40 million. It seems that Barcelona are still negotiating to get Cancelo.

Girona has indeed become an unexpected team in La Liga this season. Because I personally didn't pay much attention to Girona at first. So I also don't have any expectations for Girona. However, after this season's LaLiga progressed, I was surprised by Girona's greatness in being able to become the top 3 team in Laliga. However, unfortunately at the end of this season, Girona's performance experienced a significant decline. The reason is that in their last 5 matches in Laliga, Girona was only able to win 3 matches and lose 2 matches.
So this could endanger his current position which is ranked 3rd in La Liga. Although the difference in points between Girona and the 4th ranked team (Atletico Madrid) is quite large. However, if Girona continues to experience a decline in performance, it is very likely that Girona's ranking in the Laliga standings will drop. And what is worrying is that this season Girona will not be able to finish in the top 4 of La Liga. Because of course this will make Girona fail to appear in the UCL.


Apart from that, next week Girona will face a quite strong team, namely Atletico Madrid. I think even though it will definitely be difficult, Girona should be able to win this match. To make it safer to be in 3rd place or also if Barcelona loses to Cadiz next week, Girona will certainly be able to return to 2nd place in the La Liga standings. However, this seems a little impossible because Barcelona can definitely win the match. So the point is that Girona must be able to win against Atletico Madrid, or if winning is too difficult, just draw, that would be very good. The reason is that if Girona loses this match, Atletico Madrid will be closer to replacing Girona in 2nd place in the La Liga standings.

Girona will have a tough match soon and winning the game against atletico madrid will be obviously helping girona to lock UCL spot for the next season. This gonna be a very important match for girona considering the fact that if clubs is trying so hard to go to the UCL.
NO trophy and no problem. As long as michel can still make his club to qualify for the UCL and that's more than enough. IMO, UCL spot has become the main target of him this season.
Girona is not being favored to win in the second leg of match between these clubs. I can understand it since it will be away game for girona. I think atl madrid may take three points as revenge for girona from the result of first leg.

El Clasico will happen again in Week 32 and whoever wins this match will still be Real Madrid who will become La Liga champions, the difference between the two is 8 points and Barcelona has no chance of beating Real Madrid.
For now, Real Madrid and Barcelona both have important matches in the UCL because they both have to undergo the quarter-finals and that will not affect anything, especially the results for La Liga.
If there is chance, it will only happen next season, but Barcelona must have stable performance from the start and achieve more wins so that points can be consistently obtained.
But for next season Real Madrid will have additional players like Mbappe if the agreement can actually be officially signed and this could be problem for Barcelona because Real Madrid is of course much stronger.
It shame that Barcelona condition previously experienced decline in performance, resulting in them having to lose the opportunity to become strong candidate for the La Liga title this season.
