After two weeks of international football, Spain’s top-tier football league La Liga 2020-21 returns with matchweek 29 that starts on April 3, Saturday.
Capital giants Real Madrid will take on Eibar on Saturday as they have an early chance to go to second place in the points table by leapfrogging arch-rivals Barcelona.
The Catalan giants play on Tuesday as they host Valladolid after both Real and Atletico Madrid have played their games. The big game of the matchweek, however, will see Atletico Madrid travelling to play fourth-placed Sevilla on Monday.
Atletico Madrid have won thrice in their last five La Liga matches with their lead at the top of the table reduced to just four points. The UEFA Champions League exit has also contributed to their dwindling season so far, and Diego Simeone will hope his players pull their socks up ahead of the crunch clash.
Only 10 games are left in La Liga this season. Barcelona (62 points) trail league leaders Atletico Madrid (66 points) by four points and Real Madrid (60 points) trail by six points. Every match is crucial for the UEFA Champions League aspirants.
Sevilla (55 points) sit safely in the fourth spot of the La Liga table, 10 points ahead of the fifth-placed Real Sociedad (45 points). The race for the UEFA Europa League spot - the fifth place - also remains intense with Real Betis (45 points) and Villareal (43 points) in touching distance.
