The 2024-25 La Liga season is rapidly approaching its finale, and there’s a compelling scenario where Lamine Yamal’s FC Barcelona could clinch the league title right in front of Kylian Mbappe’s Real Madrid.
As the season draws to a close, Spain’s La Liga title race intensifies, with Barcelona leading the pack. With only nine matches left, Lamine Yamal’s squad has a golden opportunity to lift the coveted trophy in front of Mbappe.
Barcelona has been unstoppable since the start of 2025, boasting an impressive unbeaten streak of 20 matches, including 17 wins and 3 draws across La Liga and other competitions like the UEFA Champions League, Copa del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup — a trophy they won by defeating Real Madrid.
The team also holds the highest points total in La Liga for 2025, amassing 28 points from 10 matches (9 wins and 1 draw), which has propelled them to the top of the league standings. Currently, Barcelona is at 66 points, with Real Madrid trailing at 63 points, followed by Atletico Madrid at 57 points.
How Barcelona Could Celebrate La Liga in Front of Real Madrid
Barcelona is scheduled to host Real Madrid at the Nou Camp on May 11th for Matchday 35, just five matches before the season wraps up. If they achieve favorable results, the home side could secure the La Liga title in front of Mbappe and his teammates.
Before their clash with Real Madrid, Barcelona will host three matches against Real Betis, Celta Vigo, and RCD Mallorca, and will travel for two away games against Leganes and Real Valladolid. Meanwhile, Los Blancos will face three home fixtures against Valencia, Athletic Bilbao, and Celta Vigo, along with two away matches against Deportivo Alaves and Getafe.
To secure the title in El Clasico, Barcelona must win all their remaining games, including the pivotal match against Real Madrid. In this scenario, Los Blancos would need to either lose at least one match or draw three. With a nine-point difference and only three games left, along with Barcelona’s superior goal difference (+54 to Real Madrid’s +33), Barcelona could mathematically seal the La Liga crown.
While it presents a challenging task for Yamal and his teammates to clinch the trophy against their long-standing rivals, the odds are still in their favor. With two victories over Real Madrid already this season and 11 wins in their last 12 matches, the Catalan giants are in excellent form and well-positioned to achieve this remarkable feat.
