It is quite impressive to see Barca in 12th place, even with two races less.
The ranking is still provisional because Atletico must recover two, Sevilla and Real (which is still second) one.
Barcelona ranks in the Champions League, struggles in Liga, the fresh vein of Pedri and Ansu Fati are not enough.
Betis, who only know how to win or lose, will be a good test.
Real, who are trying to recover in the Champions League and have won a delicate game with Inter, should win at the disappointing Valencia.
Green disc also for Sevilla and Atletico, opposed to Osasuna and Cadiz while Real Sociedad should keep the lead receiving the Granada.
