Barcelona dressing room eager to secure La Liga title this weekend According to SPORT , the FC Barcelona squad and head coach Hansi Flick are clear in their objective: they want to win La Liga as soon as possible, ideally this weekend. Last weekend proved decisive in shaping the title race. Real Madrid dropped two points in stoppage time against Real Betis at Estadio de La Cartuja, while Barcelona secured a win away to Getafe.
The result meant an eleven-point lead for Barcelona with five matches left to be played. This means Barcelona can mathematically secure the title this Sunday if they defeat CA Osasuna at El Sadar on Saturday and Real Madrid fail to win the following day against RCD Espanyol. No desire to wait for the Clasico Within the club, there has been debate over whether it would be preferable to clinch the title immediately, even if it happens indirectly, or delay it until the Clasico at the Spotify Camp Nou against Real Madrid, which would provide a more celebratory setting .
However, inside the Barcelona dressing room, there is no hesitation. The players and coaching staff favour the quickest route. They believe they have worked hard to reach this advantageous position and see no reason to take unnecessary risks by prolonging the title race.
