The final few weeks of the European soccer season rarely sees any dead rubber games or dull moments and this weekend promises to be no different. La Liga could see its champion crowned while European places are getting locked up by the round and relegations have started to creep up on teams too.

SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain (AP) — Real Madrid moved another step closer to a 36th Spanish league title after beating Real Sociedad 1-0 and extending its lead in the standings to 14 points on Friday. Carlo Ancelotti’s men need just five points from their last five games to ensure the title will return to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

For Real Madrid, winning its 36th La Liga title is now a matter of when, not if. Los Blancos enter the weekend holding an 11-point lead over second-place Barcelona with just five league matches remaining.
