When Real Madrid beat Barcelona 2-0 on March 1, it felt like a tipping point in La Liga.
Los Merengues won the season series with Barca, and once Barcelona dropped points last Friday, it opened the door for Real Madrid to take over the lead in the Spanish top flight.
Sunday, Madrid took care of business (not without controversy) with a 2-1 win over Real Sociedad, and now lead La Liga thanks to that win over Barcelona.
Now, with a manageable schedule, Real Madrid will win the title with eight more wins, and maybe less if Barcelona drops points. But eight wins will definitely do it, and there might not be a more complete team in the world right now than this Madrid side.
Expect Los Merengues to win with ease today.
