If the Barça achieves the victory this Thursday in front of the Granada, will be turning into the leader of LaLiga Santander, stepping firm to the doublet

Calendar of FC Barcelona

LaLiga Santander is more Barcelona that never. The FC Barcelona closes the weekend with triple victory: the one who achieved in the field of the Villarreal and the two 'pricks' of the clubs of the capital. Now more than ever, the Barça depends on yes same to reach the leadership, that could assault this Thursday, in front of the Granada, in the Camp Nou.

In the closing of this day, lyou of Ronald Koeman have reached the 71 points, the same that has the Real Madrid (after the 'prick' in front of the Betis) and two less than the Athletic (73), after the group rojiblanco lost in his visit to the Cathedral of Saint Mamés. The difference, is that the Barça has a party less than his two direct rivals. Like this then , the options of the culés to remain with the title are greater that never.

This Thursday the Granada visits the Camp Nou and could be determinant. To achieve the three units home, the FC Barcelona would be surpassing in the classification to the ones of the 'Cholo' Simeone to remain with the first square. In case to win, the culés would remain with 74 points, by the 73 of the 'colchoneros'. Instead, if empatan, would not assault the leadership, but would continue depending on yes same to remain with the title suspender belt, because if they win the rest of his parties (including the one of the Atleti) the task would be done.

However, the defeat can be fatal for the Barça, as they would remain with the same 71 points of the Real Madrid, but with the 'goal average' against, that is to say, in case that the two teams finish empatados in points, the madridistas would surpass to the Barcelona group, as long as they win the rest of his parties. Thus, the victory is the way for the ones of Koeman and will be vital that the team arrive enchufado to the crash of this Thursday from the 19:00 hours in the feudo barcelonista.

To a step of the doublet

To win, the Barça will be encarrilado to achieve the title of League, something that was unthinkable to finals of December, for example. Already with the Glass of the King in the vitrinas, the Barcelona will litigate as never in the remaining parties of the competition, to follow the good series and consummate, finally, a traced back historical in the domestic championship.

It fits to remember that there was a moment, after the defeat of the Barça in Cádiz on 6 December, that the culés were to twelve points of the leadership, also occupied in this moment by the Atleti and to so alone three units of the zone of descent. There has been a big route and changes since for 'resurrect' to the team, but finally Koeman has given with the 'key' and this Barcelona picture goes to by more.
