La Liga 2024-25: Real Madrid’s Ancelotti expects close title race

The Hindu  

There is unlikely to be a runaway LaLiga victor this season like Real Madrid in the previous edition, with a multi-club title race making it harder for a dominant leader to emerge, the champions’ manager Carlo Ancelotti said on Thursday. Barcelona, leader since August, has slipped to third after winning only one of its last seven league matches, losing the top spot to Atletico Madrid in a 2-1 home loss last month. Ancelotti’s Real, which is a point behind Atletico with 40 points from 18 matches, has a chance to provisionally take the top spot when it visits 19th-placed Valencia on Friday. “The fact that Atletico are there also generates uncertainty and I think it will take less than 90 points to be champions.” Ancelotti said while Barcelona’s drop in form was unexpected, the club had a strong chance of staging a comeback.
