Spain La Liga Preview: Week 34 (Apr 30 - May 1)

Juan Carlos Garrido's Submarines receive Liga leader Barcelona, knowing that a victory is vital to keep up with Valencia's pace in the fight for the third alternative to the Spanish League.

Pep Guardiola cannot ignore the fact that Barcelona visits the Santiago Bernabeu two weeks from now. A four-points advantage is mandatory to diminish the impact of the Clasico in La Liga fight.

Blaugrana's boss should walk a step at the time, considering after the Madrigal Barcelona lock horns with Shakhtar Donetsk for the Champions League.

If Barcelona advances to the final of the Champions, the Cule squad will play 15 games in the next 57 days.

Spain La Liga: Daniel Alves extends his contract until 2015

Daniel Alves has become a vital part of Pep Guardiola's scheme. It is not that the Cule boss does not have alternatives on the wings (Adriano has showed strong credentials to be part of the starting eleven during the last few weeks, and let's not forget Maxwell).

"I don't feel Barcelona have been doing their best to renew my contract" said Alves a few weeks ago. Chelsea, Manchester City and many other teams have been following the negotiation process closely, but both parts seems to have finally agreed on the future of the Brazilian international

"We've looked around in the market, and there is no one like Alves" said Rosell a few days ago. "No other player on his position steps on the opposite area as often, he's one of a kind" added Guardiola.

Sevilla wants to recover its place among the European best as they receive Barcelona on Sunday's night. It should be the most exciting game of the week, who'll claim the three points?

Spain La Liga Preview: Week 27 (Mar 5-7)

Mallorca faces a turning point, as a victory over Espanyol can take them back to the top fight while a defeat might sank them way too close from the relegation line.

Unai Emery's Ches have become the third alternative to Real Madrid and Barcelona as leaders in the league, and they need to prove they deserve this position on Wednesday's late game. Newly promoted Levante and Real Sociedad lock horns with each other, both relatively safe from the relegation line but eager to join the upper half of the positions table.

Sporting wants to take advantage of Sevilla's misfortune as they visit the Sanchez Pizjuan, while Hercules wants to surprise everybody by claiming the full scoring against Villarreal at the Madrigal.

Spain La Liga Preview: Week 25 (Feb 26)

Spain La Liga Preview: Week 24 (Feb 19-21)

One week ago, it looked like Barcelona undisputed leader of the Spanish League, having obtained 48 points in the last 16 games, enjoying a strong momentum that spread also to the Copa del Rey and the Champions League.

But two consecutive awkward result (against Sporting and Arsenal) have brought Barcelona back to reality, and now a victory is mandatory to dispel all the judging clouds cast upon Pep Guardiola's head.

Atletico Madrid must take advantage of this visit to La Romareda to return to the upper half of the positions table and fight back on the chase for the last European places. Espanyol and Athletic have settled as the two Europa League favorites at the moment, while Valencia finally leapfrogged Villarreal and claimed the third position with 47 points.

Real Madrid focus its forces for next week's visit to France, as Los Blancos are determined to continue their three-way chase for at least one title and they know they cannot take Olympique Lyon for granted. A victory let Real Madrid shorten the gap from the top to two points, though this minimum disadvantage will most likely last less than a day.

Spain La Liga Preview: Week 23 (Feb 12-14)

Joaquin Caparros' Athletic and RCD Espanyol struggle to secure their qualification for next year's Europa League. With 38 and 37 points respectively, they've opened a six-points gap both from the top of the table and from Sevilla, Atletico and Getafe, who won't give in the European chase without a fight.

The bottom of the positions table, on the other hand, is a horse of a different color. Levante, Almeria and Malaga are drawning below the relegation line, with 21, 20 and 18 points respectively. But Deportivo, Racing, Hercules, Sporting and Osasuna stand only one point above the risk zone and any of them can join the basement boys upon an awkward result on this week's Liga games.

Manolo Preciado's Rojiblancos must grab Barcelona's bull by its horns and do what it takes not to be left empty-handed at their own home. Will they have what it takes to avoid the risk zone for another week?

Spain La Liga Preview: Week 22 (Feb 5-6)

With only 16 Liga matches ahead, Barcelona's legendary winning streak (15 consecutive victories) have beared fruit, and Jose Mourinho's misstep last week let Pep Guardiola's Blaugranas take a comfortable 7-points lead.

At least Real Madrid could counter the misery of their defeat at the Reyno de Navarra with an important victory over reigning Spanish Cup champion Sevilla, and advance to the final where they'll play against their eternal Blaugrana rival.

Barcelona receives Quique Sanchez Flores' Atletico visit. Los Colchoneros are going through a difficult time: they occupy the 7th position, five points below Athletic. In addition, they've lost the last two games and have yet to face Valencia in the next week.

Villarreal waits for an opportunity to leapfrog Real Madrid, as Jose Mourinho's Merengues are now only six points above their heads. Levante visits the Madrigal in a desperate attempt to abandon the 18th position and join Racing and Osasuna one step higher in the relegation fight.

February can be a decisive month for the Spanish League. Is there anything to do to defy Barcelona's leadership?

Spain La Liga Preview: Week 21 (Jan 29)

There might be some major modifications to La Liga's standings upon this week's games. While Barcelona visits Hercules and Real Madrid hosts Osasuna, four top European contenders take on each other, as Athletic travels to Madrid to challenge Atletico and Villarreal visits Espanyol.

Valencia and Sevilla, on the other hand, take on relatively weak rivals and they should take full advantage of this situation to climb as high as possible in the title's chase. Sevilla's controversial defeat against Real Madrid for Copa del Rey left a bitter aftertaste on Gregorio Manzano's boys mouth, and there's no better medicine than success, which they'll be looking for on Saturday's late game against Deportivo.

Only two squads have defeated FC Barcelona this season; Real Betis and Hercules. Paraguayan international Nelson Haedo Valdez was Blaugrana's executioner in the second round of this tournament, but the striker has been experiencing some major physical pain and might not be fully fit to perform this Saturday, just like Royston Drenthe.

Malaga and Zaragoza play a decisive six-pointer for the bottom fight, while Valencia visits Santander on Monday to end La Liga's 21st round.
