As Real Madrid celebrates their recent La Liga triumph, they head to Granada's Nuevo Los Carmenes stadium on Saturday. While Los Blancos bask in their championship glory, Granada faces the possibility of relegation. Despite Real Madrid's festivities, Granada seeks to salvage pride and provide their fans with a memorable performance.

Granada's Dire Situation:

Granada could find themselves relegated before kickoff if Real Mallorca secures a victory earlier. Languishing 11 points from safety, Granada's return to Spain's second tier seems imminent. Although their fate appears sealed, they aim to honor their supporters with a spirited display against the champions.

Real Madrid, fresh off their Champions League semifinal victory over Bayern Munich, enter the fixture in celebratory spirits. After deferring their title celebrations last week, Los Blancos are poised to revel in their league triumph. However, Granada's plight dampens the potential joy of Madrid's trophy presentation.

While Granada faces relegation, Cadiz clings to hopes of survival as they trail Mallorca by six points. They host Getafe in a crucial fixture, aiming to prolong their survival battle. At the top, Atletico Madrid and Real Betis eye Champions League and European football qualification, respectively.

Real Betis' Nabil Fekir, returning to form after injury, takes center stage against relegated Almeria. With creative responsibilities heightened in Isco's absence, Fekir aims to orchestrate Betis' quest for European qualification.

 

Key Stats:

- Cadiz defender Ivan Alejo's remarkable 16 yellow cards.
