Real Madrid could be crowned the Spanish Primera Liga champions if results go their way after the 35th round of matches in Spain this weekend.
Last weekend's 2-1 away win against FC Barcelona gave Madrid a seven point lead over the Catalans, which means a win at home against Sevilla on Sunday and a away defeat for Barcelona to Rayo Vallecano will crown Jose Mourinho's men this seasons champions mathematically.
Madrid will have to overcome the disappointment of their Champions League exit against Bayern Munich on Wednesday to stay focused, reported Xinhua.
Barcelona will have to pick themselves up following their European disappointment and will have to play without central defender Gerard Pique, who injured his head after clash against Chelsea on Tuesday.
Sunday will also see third place Valencia battling fourth placed Malaga, who are trailing by three points.
