We are coming towards the business end of the season now and there are some extremely important games coming up.

Saturday 31st March – Las Palmas v Real Madrid – La Liga
Tuesday 3rd April – Juventus v Real Madrid – Champions League
Sunday 8th April – Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid – La Liga
Wednesday 11th April – Real Madrid v Juventus – Champions League

Wednesday 18th April – Real Madrid v Athletic Bilbao – La Liga
Sunday 29th April – Real Madrid v Leganes – La Liga
Sunday 6th May – Barcelona v Real Madrid – La Liga
Wednesday 9th May – Sevilla v Real Madrid – La Liga
Sunday 13th May – Real Madrid v Celta Vigo – La Liga
Sunday 20th May – Villarreal v Real Madrid – La Liga
We may have to wait a while for the next game against Las Palmas, but there will be plenty of anticipation for that match to kick off. The last 9 matches of the La Liga season will be absolutely crucial in claiming a solid league position.
Los Blancos are currently 3rd in La Liga but will be targeting 2nd place. City rivals Atletico Madrid currently hold 2nd, 4 points clear of Real. A win against them at the Santiago Bernabeu would certainly put Zinedine Zidane’s side in a good position.
Another crucial match will of course be El Clasico against Barcelona at the Camp Nou on 6th May. Though the league is important, it could be argued that the Champions League will be the priority. A tough tie against Juventus is imminent, with a place in the semi final at stake.
