10 matches all slated to begin at 11 am Eastern Time. Here's what to watch for in jornada 37 of La Liga.
Title Contenders: Barcelona (vs. Espanyol - not yet out of danger), Atletico Madrid even (at Levante - relegated), Real Madrid -1 (vs. Valencia - safe).
Barca's derbi would appear the toughest task on paper, but all 3 title contenders should take 3 points today. That will leave all to play for in the final round...
Europa League Hopefuls: Athletic Bilbao +6 (at Las Palmas - safe); Celta Vigo +5 (vs. Malaga - safe); Sevilla (vs. Granada - 1 point above relegation zone).
Sevilla could win the tiebreak over both sides, but the nervionenses have 2 finals ahead. So don't expect too much motivation even if they're hosting an Andalusian derbi -- the Europa League places should be wrapped up this round. But if Athletic lose and Sevilla win, San Mames would decide in the last round.
Relegation Battlers: Real Betis +6 (at Eibar - safe), Espanyol +5 (at Barca - title contender), Deportivo La Coruna +4 (at Villarreal - Champions League playoff), Granada +1 (at Sevilla - outside chance at sixth place), Rayo Vallecano even (at Real Sociedad - safe), Sporting Gijon even (at Getafe - also in relegation zone), Getafe even (vs. Sporting Gijon - also in relegation zone).
Betis and Espanyol look safe -- but of course you can never be sure. Depor has taken 3 consecutive 1-1 draws away, but no wins in the last 6 is worrisome; Real Madrid at home is their final match.
Granada is doing what it always does at the end of the season; Barca at home is their final match. Rayo has a favorable schedule; already relegated Levante at home is their final match. Getafe-Sporting is the match of the round -- both sides have to play for 3 points but can't afford to lose. Away to a hopefully (for them) safe Real Betis is Getafe's final match; home to a nothing-to-play-for with Asturian manager Villarreal is Sporting's final match.
Should be an exciting finish to the campaign -- there could be a 5-way tie on 39 points! If I had to wager, Sporting and Depor go down based on the tiebreaks. Enjoy the matches!
