One of the most popular leagues in the world, LaLiga Santander, enters its final stretch on this new day 34. With only five games to go before the lights go out in this 2021-22 season, the teams are clear that they have to play the rest in these last 5 games, with swords held high in the fight for important competitions in Europe, while others, for salvation and remain in the first division.
This day has the plus that Real Madrid will be LaLiga champions if they win or draw against Espanyol. But if they lose this match, they still had to be aware of what happens with Sevilla or Barcelona. Although everything indicates that the conditions are right for Real Madrid to receive the crown on matchday 34.
On the other hand, FC Barcelona wants to maintain second place in the table to get into a good hype in the Champions League. For this Sunday they will host Javier Aguirre’s Mallorca, who dreams of remaining in the first division.

Mallorca, which is out of the relegation positions after its last victory against Alavés, visits the Camp Nou to face an FC Barcelona that has lost the last three games they have played at home (against Eintracht in the Europa League and Cádiz and Rayo in the local tournament) and that has decided to ensure its presence in the next edition of the Champions League as soon as possible.
This great game between FC Barcelona and Mallorca will be played this Sunday, May 1, 2022, at the Camp Nou, home of FC Barcelona at 03:00 pm ET.
The team coached by Javier Aguirre will fight against what has been a crisis playing as a visitor against Barcelona and with the advantage that they will already know the results of Cádiz and Granada, who face Sevilla and Celta, respectively. Mallorca will not count for this match with its top scorer, Vedat Muriqi, who is sanctioned for accumulating yellow cards.
On the other hand, FC Barcelona knows that it has no margin for error in these 5 games that remain, and, although their chances of winning the league are practically nil, they will fight until the end to at least get second place in the table of positions and to be better placed at the time of the draw for the UEFA Champions League the following year.
