On the second day of the round of Friday to Sunday, the capital will be welcoming Catalan guests. Real Madrid can look forward to a match against Espanyol in a good form and mood, as he defended the Champions League as defending champion AS Roma 3-0 home defeat. Real has hardly any fears of his Saturday defeat: in the last five seasons he has won nine out of ten races against Espanyol, but last time in late February, he was also a guest. From the point of view of Madrid, 29-3 is the goal difference, at Santiago Bernabéu, 16-1.
Barcelona, like Real, is still unbeaten, but the Catalans defending championships have won their league championships alone.
The team of Ernesto Valverde, who beat PSV at home in the BL with three-goal lead Lionel Messi 4-0 at the end of Sunday's final round of the round, hosts the Catalan team, the Girona, which has been well-performing so far. The guests had little resistance against Barca last season, with 3-0 at home and 6-1 at home. Last season's rookie combined with a restrained start of the season - home draw and defeat - has been the one-time victory for the last two times. Villarreal went 1-0 at home and Celta Vigo was 3-2 at home in Girona, but in Barcelona it would be a surprise to score.
Athletic Bilbao as a guest of Real Betis seeks to maintain its inaction.
