Barcelona holding a commanding 12-point cushion over Real Madrid, the Blaugrana edge closer to lifting La Liga with three games still on the schedule.

The Camp Nou atmosphere has been electric as Barcelona keeps the chase alive. After a decisive win, the team coached by Xavi Hernandez appears to be steering the title race toward a smooth finish, with the gap to their closest rivals widening and the chance of securing the trophy shaping up as a real possibility.

Fans can consider streaming options as a way to follow the action, with DAZN offering access from €18.99 per month to watch La Liga matches for the 2022-2023 season.

When could Barcelona seal the La Liga title in the 2022-2023 season?

With an average margin in favor and Real Madrid facing a demanding schedule, Barcelona can clinch the championship only if the points available in the remaining games drop below 12. In practical terms, that means the title would be decided once three rounds remain on the fixture list.

Assuming both sides win all their remaining matches, Barcelona would clinch the title at the conclusion of their Matchday 35 meeting with Real Sociedad. If Real Madrid falters earlier, Xavi’s men could lift the trophy in a Catalan derby on Matchday 34 against Espanyol, a moment that would carry extra symbolism for both clubs and fans in the region.

The current mood around Barcelona is marked by confidence. The squad has shown resilience, depth, and the ability to absorb pressure while staying focused on each upcoming game. They can afford a small slip in results yet remain firmly ahead of Real Madrid as they navigate a packed schedule that includes clashes against Elche, Girona, Getafe, Atlético Madrid, Rayo Vallecano, Betis, Osasuna, Espanyol, Real Sociedad, Valladolid, Mallorca, and Celta.

Real Madrid, on the other side, faces a challenging sequence that includes Valladolid, Villarreal, Cádiz, Celta, Girona, Almería, Real Sociedad, Getafe, Valencia, Rayo Vallecano, Sevilla, and Athletic Club. The path to the title is narrowing for both teams, with the calendar turning toward the most decisive phase of the season.
