Real Madrid achieved a very important victory at home against Espanyol and placed just six points behind Barcelona.

Carlo Ancelotti’s men considered this match to be extremely important because it is the last one before the league Clásico, so they did their best to come back from the match and they won the 3-1 victory.

Barcelona will play tomorrow against Athletic Bilbao on the difficult pitch of San Mamés, so in the best of scenarios the people of Madrid will arrive only six points below Xavi’s.

If Barcelona gains the advantage, it would reach nine once again, but the Classical will represent the best option for Madrid to shorten the gap to six points, something that makes them maintain hope considering that there are still many dates to play.
