If the Real Madrid wins the Sunday against the Real Sociedad, will surpass to the Barça in the classification in spite of of tying to points in the leadership. Which are the criteria to decide?

Calendar of FC Barcelona

If something is remaining patent in this League Santander 2019-20, is the maximum equality that exists between almost all the teams. In fact, we find us in the last third of the season and still there is not at all decided. Descent, intermediate zone, European zone, Champions League, champion... The classification does not leave to move and do quinielas on what sucederá in each day is increasingly complicated.

In this point, and taking into account the tie to zero of the FC Barcelona this Friday against the Seville, in the Sánchez Pizjuán, the Real Madrid has of an opportunity of gold next Sunday to win in Anoeta to the Real Sociedad and, with this, empatar again with the culés in the highest of the table clasificatoria. This would mean, this yes, that would plant above the culés when having won the 'goal-average' individual.

Barça and Madrid empataron to zero in the Camp Nou during the month of December, and does some months the group culé fell defeated in Santiago Bernabéu (2-0) in a bad party of the ones of Quique Setién. The Barça, therefore, will need to add a point more than the ones of Zidane, like minimum, if it wishes to conquer the trophy of LaLiga Santander 2019-20 and revalidate like this the title of the past course.

Seen which is the first criterion of tiebreaker imposed by the Federation, fits to stand out that the second option goes through the difference of general goals, that is to say, the one who achieve both groups in the global of the competition. Now no longer it serves of at all with the 'goal-average' decided, but regarding this register the culés come off well with a +38, since they accumulate 69 so many in favour and 31 against. The whites take out his +35 of the 55 annotated and the 20 fit, leaving clear that are not so goleadores like the Barça but yes better backwards.

More criteria of decision in case of tie

The third criterion that collects the Federation to decide what instrument course in first position, if still there was tie with the two first, would be the one of the marked goals. The group that more goals had marked, would remain by on. The regulation collects also the supósito that it can give a tie to three in some zone of the table clasificatoria. In this case, or even if they were more the clubs that were in equality of points contesting a same square, the RFEF also has criteria that would differentiate the particular classification that would reposition to each one in his place.

It would study first the punctuation between the involved, as if the rest had not participated, measuring the first particular balance, the difference of goals afterwards, and, if still there was equality, the 'goal-average' general. If even like this it persisted the tie, would impose the criterion of greater quantity of goals in favour. En última instancia, the 'Clean Game' would be the key, and factors like the cards and the faults committed would finish being determinants. Arrive to this point of equality, in any case, seems almost impossible.
