LaLiga: Barcelona vs Real Madrid could decide title winners – Ancelotti

Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti, has admitted next weekend’s Clásico will be “almost” decisive in the LaLiga title race.

Ancelotti was speaking to the media after Los Blancos beat Celta Vigo 3-2 on Sunday.

The result sees the champions go into the clash four points behind Barcelona.

If Madrid were to beat Barcelona at Montjuïc, they would trail the leaders by just one point with three games remaining.

“Yes, obviously,” Ancelotti said at a postmatch news conference when asked whether Madrid needed to beat Barça to stand a chance of winning the league.

“I won’t say Sunday’s game will be decisive, but almost. … If we win, we’re a point behind.

“The league would still be in Barcelona’s hands, but we’ll have more of a chance.”

Hansi Flick’s men have won all three Clásicos so far this season.
