If the PSG defeat doesn't demoralize Barcelona in La Liga, I think that they will continue to fight awesomely. They have a 7-win streak in La Liga and they'd better keep up this performance not to lose their chance for the championship earlier than expected.

They cannot be demoralized, they do not have any possibility of being demoralized, if they end up third in the league, eliminated from champions league so early (which will definitely happen) and not win the cup, what do they have to show for? I mean most of the time they are second in the league at worst and win it at best, being third is a very very rare thing, I do not think that they will be fine with that, and since they have nothing else to win this year I am sure they will have to fight real hard on every single league game to get to top spot.

ATM already lost some points with the tie against levante, so Barcelona needs to pick up where they left off and they should win this game so they could get closer, that 2 points is a marvelous thing when you are fighting for championship and they have to take advantage of the situation if they want to have any chance at all.

Yes Benzema is confirmed and he will definitely be absent from the Valladolid match and his participation in front of Atalanta is in great doubt .
Even the only striker in Madrid who receives insults from all sides Real Madrid more likely to be playing without him in his very difficult European confrontation .
Ramos ,Carvajal , Valverde, Hazard and Benzema is half a team and in all lines against a team that has nothing to lose, is known for its offensive courage and has an experienced manager so it's going to be a rough month for Zidane.

Now they are just one game behind Real with 6 point difference (could have been Cool

and same games against Barca with 9 point difference.

9 points as a difference, it is a big difference, not a small one. Barcelona almost are out of Champions League so they will have only La Liga to play and fight for a title in this season. They will want to win it but will their internal problems won't be broken more after the defeat against PSG? If it won't be broken more and Koeman can tighten the team to fight for La Liga, Atletico Madrid need to be careful with every match they lose points.

If Koeman fails with the task, Atletico Madrid will have only one opponent, Real Madrid in La Liga for the title competition.

Real Madrid also need to abandon the Champions League, letting Atalanta go ahead. Real Madrid has no chance of winning the tournament this season. Too many injured players. And injuries do not stop. Today it became known that Benzema will not play against Valladolid and may not play against Atalanta. Better to focus on La Liga. The chances are better in this tournament.

We have to remark that Barcelona could be out of the three competitions within one month.
They have to play versus Sevilla the 'Copa del Rey' trophy return in Barcelona the next 03/03/2021. They have a 0-2 by now and Sevilla football club has a very good team this season.
Barça has to play versus PSG in some weeks with an 1-4 score for PSG, so they are almost out of the Champions League competition.
And they are 9 points behind in Spanish league competition and the worst thing is that they have lost their 'sport spirit' and Messi time is definitely over.

In any of the big leagues, 5 points is a big difference, when you consider the form and quality of the team in the lead. Valencia holding 9 point lead I wouldn't worry but this is Atletico with an established identity and a hungry, hungry striker still hurting from his dismissal so yeah. It's not over, and I still have a small Barca outright to wait on but I wouldn't count on Atletico losing that lead.

Honestly it looks like ATM will finally be closer to game gap, with this game they are at 22 and they will probably get this game as well. I really believe that ATM will manage to get things done and make the point difference into 8 points and they will still be one game down as well, so its really going to be close to championship for them.

There is 38 games and only 15-16 games are left, we are talking about over 4 game difference nearly and that is a whole lot, with tonight's win they are going to make it 3 game difference and with the other extra game they will make it 4 games. Tonight I will call ATM the new champions of la liga if they manage to win the game and they are quite good as well, much much better than a team like levante which is 11th in the league, so it should be a quite easy wager tonight and win, I will get a decent size bet on it.

I can't believe that ATM had a chance to get 3 points further ahead and missed that chance. They could have been 57 points but instead they are at 55 and in a league like La liga where Real or Barca wins the league almost all the time, as a team who could win the league you have to win these type of games in order to make sure you can become champions. Now they are just one game behind Real with 6 point difference (could have been Cool

and same games against Barca with 9 point difference.

Let's hope that they can continue to play like this because Barca will not be doing much at champions league obviously which means they will turn all their focus into la liga and will try to win every game left, and that is a risk for ATM and would be scary for any other team even Real Madrid. I still think ATM is the favorites for the title, but I think this game put a small dent in the way.

Tomorow there is a match between betis and getafe two team with different situations, betis 3 points away from a place in the europa league and getafe 3 points away from relegation and in their last five match betis only lost one against barcelona and getafe not able to win in their last 5 ones so i think betis are favorable to get the three points.

The point difference between Atletico and Real has decreased to 6. Real have a nice chance to catch up on them. This is an easy match for them. I expect them to win this game nicely.

Levante recently won against Real Madrid. And he is a very inconvenient opponent for the teams from Madrid. Three days later, another match with Atletico Madrid. I think Atletico will win this time. The difference between Real Madrid and Barcelona is not so big. Meetings with these teams are still ahead. ...

Sad to say, a large portion of our games channel quit broadcasting this occasion after the leaving of Ronaldo. I can just watch it live on Facebook with bad quality.
After the loosing of Ronaldo, the majority of my family members quit viewing the occasion.
I additionally don't watch different matches or supporting the group like Betis, Getafe, or Sevilla.
The expectation we'll see him on the next occasion.

Atletico vs Levante is on Feb 20 and Atletico also have a Champions League match vs Chelsea on Feb 23. Perhaps they might want to rotate the squad a little before the huge CL game. Still, I don't think Atletico will lose points again vs Levante. This time, they will win it.

Try look at totalsportek for La Liga they usually have quite a lot of games listed. Not all are good but sometimes if you tune in to foreign language channel you might find a good stream even on low bandwidth, and can adjust quality. There are still many good players in La Liga don't worry, I mean Atletico are exciting now they stopped playing ultra defence:)

Well, another draw got by Atletico Madrid even those players dominated the ball positions and shots. This will be more interesting if Atletico is defeated or get another draw result against Levante in the upcoming match. Actually, I am not so surprised if Atletico often has bad performance towards the end of the competition, they already did it previously. Now let's see how good Real Madrid and Barcelona to keep getting 3 points on each remaining match.

Haven't watched Levante - Atletico, so can't say much about game. From stats it looks that Atletico had very poor 2nd half.
Draws against Levante and Celta is something what had to happen sooner or later. Any team can't play stable all season long without any bad periods. Especially considering that Champions league resume now, Atletico have to pay attention to this competition too. They still have solid 9 points lead, but few more draws and their position against Barca and Real won't be such confident anymore.

That defeat right now was bad for ATM, wasting 4 points in the last 3 games made Barca and Real Madrid getting closer. Ok there is a safe distance but it has to stay stable at least Undecided

True, they tend to be getting closer but then, i don't still see either teams @Barca or Real madrid topping the league anytime soon if at all. Atletico Madrid results in a draw when the game is not favorable at all and only then. At least it keeps them in line than loosing and you'll see them pick up the pace agin and along the line, Barca or Real Madrid would be out to make there own mistakes.

Only 6 points away (at least for now with -1 match), Real Madrid is still very likely to become champions chasing Atletico. The draw experienced against Levante, should be used as introspection for Suarez and co. It's not only the top 5 teams that have to be a threat, but, the mid-table teams often giving a surprises. BTW, Suarez seems to have started giving insinuations to his ex club, Barcelona. I don't know, if this is appropriate for players to do.

I missed something here but I think people disliking Barca or suffered from it will surely mock their humiliating defeats and the way they invent imaginary penalties tactics...

I don't know why but Atletico Madrid played worse in the second half against Levante. They got only 3 shots which was 11 in the first half. I thought that they would play much better in the second half and find more chances for the win. In the end, we've got a 1-1 result. However Atletico are going to play another La Liga game against Levante in 3 days. I believe they won't do the same mistake then.

I agree that Atletico Madrid's game in the second half was very bad, very few chances were created. So it is very natural that Atletico Madrid finally
failed to score a goal in the second half and had to be satisfied with the draw result. I also hope that Diego Simeone in his next match against Levante
can motivate Atletico players, in order to have a higher morale to win the competition. Moreover, Real Madrid started to play consistently and tried to
catch up with Atletico Madrid's points. So Atletico Madrid must win the match in the remaining La Liga matches.
