Ten games to go in La Liga

There are ten more games to go in La Liga, and after beating Osasuna 3-0 on Thursday, Barça are in pole position in the race to the title. They have 63 points, with Real Madrid their closest pursuers in 60 and Atlético still hanging on at a distance of seven off the lead.

Montjuïc the key

Six of Barça's remaining games are at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, including this Sunday's 4.15pm CET start against Girona. Following the derby, Betis, Celta, Mallorca, Real Madrid and VillarReal all still have to come to the stadium, while the away trips are to Leganés, Valladolid, Espanyol and Athletic Club.

Clásico incoming

On paper, the most decisive game of all is the one against Real Madrid. Barça won 4-0 at the Santiago Bernabéu, and another win would be a gargantuan step towards the trophy. Also, as long as Barça can maintain their strong head-to-head record, which simply means not losing by four or more goals, then they will always finish ahead of Madrid should they end the season tied on points.

Flick on fire

Certainly, things could not have gone better for Barça than they have in recent weeks. Hans-Dieter Flick has led the team to extraordinary run of eight consecutive wins, one more than his similarly remarkable run in the opening games of the season.

And in 19 games across all competitions in 2025, Barça remain unbeaten. That's just three short of the 22 games without a loss under Luis Enrique in 2015/16.

All season, Barça have won 33 of their 44 games, a win rate of 73%, matched with the brilliant record under Tito Vilanova. Of managers who were in charge for at least ten games, only Luis Enrique did better with 76.24% of his games ending in wins.
