Real Madrid’s recent stumble in the La Liga has provided an opportunity for Barcelona to pull further ahead at the top of the table. After losing 4-2 to Girona, Los Blancos are now 10 points behind their arch-rivals, and with a win by Barcelona against Rayo Vallecano at Vallecas, that gap could widen to a formidable 14 points. Barcelona midfielder Gavi was quick to show his support for his team by posting on social media, suggesting they had put in a performance that he thoroughly enjoyed. It remains to be seen if Barca can capitalize on Real’s slip-up and further cement their position at the top of the table.

Girona may have lost to Real Madrid in their recent match, but they certainly didn’t go down without a fight. In fact, it seems that they really thrive when they play against the Madrid giants. This could be music to the ears of Barcelona fans, who are hoping their team will take another huge step towards claiming the title in the next league outing. Carlo Ancelotti may have suggested that the gap between Madrid and Barcelona is not as big as it seems, but if Barcelona win, it will be a 14-point gap. However, recent records show that Barcelona may have a tough game against Rayo, who they lost to last season and drew with on the opening day of the season. Nevertheless, Girona’s spirited play may just provide Barcelona with some extra motivation, as Xavi and his team aim to emerge victorious.
