Once again the La Liga title is coming down to the two main contenders and it’s currently all falling down on the shoulders of two men, two captains, Sergio Ramos and Lionel Messi.
All the momentum is with Madrid and Ramos keeps on urging the team on with two consecutive winning penalties and five goals in the seven matches post-shutdown. Messi, on the other hand, is struggling with issues on and off the pitch with his team now four points off the leaders after restarting the season two points in front.
There is a lot of talk about the future of Messi but on the pitch, he’s going to need something perhaps beyond his otherworldly talents to pull off another Barcelona title this season.
What are the tipsters predicting?
Barcelona vs Espanyol
The Catalan derby comes around again and Barcelona not only wants that win against their local rivals but also an essential three points are required to keep in touch with Madrid who is at home to Alaves.
It’s a must-win game really and the home side will be looking to field all their stars to ensure all three points are posted on the table. You can expect Barcelona’s maestro Messi to be instrumental in the game with goals and assists more than likely against a struggling Espanyol side.
