Barcelona can be proclaimed champion of the 22-23 League already on the next day, that of May 13 and 14. That would mean that the blaugrana, who now have 82 points, would win the title four days in advance. "Almost there", said Xavi with the calculator in his hand.
The first match-ball for Xavi's Barça will not be on the weekend of May 6-7 because the league competition is paralyzed by the Copa del Rey final.
For Barcelona to be champion without playing, the premise is that Atlético should not beat Cádiz this Wednesday. If the colchoneros win the Metropolitano and place second in the standings, the option of singing the alirón on Saturday the 13th is completely cancelled.
On the other hand, if Simeone's men play, then the Barcelona fans will be very aware of what happens at the Santiago Bernabéu on Saturday the 13th. If the whites were not able to beat Getafe, the League would be for Barcelona, who would arrive at Cornellà as champions .
But if Madrid get those three points in front of their fans, then Barcelona would be up to themselves to win the title. With a victory in the Cornellà derby against Espanyol, Xavi's men would celebrate the championship and it would not matter what Atlético had done before at the Martínez Valero in Elx.
