A victory against Osasuna could catapult Barça towards the LaLiga title
The rescheduled match of matchday 27 of LaLiga against Osasuna offers FC Barcelona the ideal opportunity to pull away at the top of the tournament. With 10 matchdays remaining, the team coached by Hansi Flick can regain a three-point lead over Real Madrid and distance themselves by seven from Atlético, the last rival the culés faced before the break.
The 2-4 victory at the Metropolitano left the 'colchoneros' four points behind Barça, with one more game played. Madrid, for its part, took advantage of the postponement of the match between the azulgranas and 'rojillos' to equal the Catalans with 60 points, although Barcelona remains first due to the advantage in the direct encounter (4-0) and having a better goal difference (+48).
| Team | Played | Points | Wins | Draws | Losses | Goals For | Goals Against | Goal Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Barcelona | 27 | 60 | 19 | 3 | 5 | 75 | 27 | 48 |
| R.Madrid | 28 | 60 | 18 | 6 | 4 | 59 | 27 | 32 |
| Atlético | 28 | 56 | 16 | 8 | 4 | 46 | 22 | 24 |
In this sense, Flick's team has one extra point over the 'merengues' and 'rojiblancos', as Atlético also lost the direct duel against Barça after the defeat on matchday 28. The overall result was 5-4 in favor of the culés, who lost 1-2 in Montjuïc in the first round against their rival in the 'semis' of the Copa del Rey; a tie that is currently even (4-4).
Barça, with a favorable schedule to secure LaLiga
By defeating Osasuna, Barça will reach 63 points in 28 matches, a couple more than they had at this stage of the tournament last season (61). In the 2022-23 season, the last time the azulgrana team won LaLiga, the tally was 72 points in the first 28 matchdays, nine more than the team could reach if they win on Thursday in Montjuïc.
