La Liga - Super Tuesday [P+R]

S

Sevillista

Starting XI


This weekend the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th place teams battle for Champions League Spots at the same time. These are the final two matches of the season except for a meaningless Barcelona - Athletic this Friday.

Background
Current Standings:
1. Barcelona 82
2. Real Madrid 70
3. Valencia 69
4. Osasuna 65
5. Sevilla 65

Real Madrid will battle for the 2nd/3rd place spots, the former guaranteeing a spot in the Champions League while the latter requires an extra qualifying round. Sevilla and Osasuna will battle for the 4th and final Champions League spot, currently tied at points. The 5th place spot qualifies for the UEFA Cup.

Between Madrid and Valencia, Valencia win the tie breaker having won the first matchup and having tied the second. Between Osasuna and Sevilla, Osasuna win the tie breaker having tied the first leg and having won the second leg.

Scenarios
-Madrid is guaranteed 2nd place with a win or a Valencia loss, or if both teams tie.
-Osasuna is guaranteed 4th place with a win or a Sevilla loss, or if both teams tie.
-Sevilla are guaranteed 4th place if they get more points than Osasuna, ie. a win will get them in if Osasuna ties or loses and a tie will get them only if Osasuna loses.
-Valencia are guaranteed 2nd place if they get more points than Madrid, ie a win will be good if Madrid ties or loses, a tie will be good if Madrid loses.

Notes
-Villa (Valencia) will be going for the Pichichi title, currently 1 goal behind Eto'o. Eto'o could very well play on Friday since he has no World Cup considerations.
-Osasuna have never qualified for the Champions League
-Sevilla have not qualified for the Champions League since they finished 2nd in the 1956/1957 season, going to the CL because the 1st place team, Real Madrid, were automatically in as reigning CL champs.
-The legend, Zidane, will be playing his last match in a Real Madrid jersey.
-Sevilla are coming off their UEFA Cup win and counting both competitions are on a 6-match winning streak, outscoring opponents 15-3. The Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan is sure to be an inferno, hoping to cap off an unforgettable 100 year anniversary season.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
My predictions:
Osasuna 0 - 2 Valencia
Sevilla 2 - 1 Real Madrid.

Villa x2, Saviola, Kanoute, Zidane.

Well, that might be more desire than prediction.

I hope it ends this way:

1. Barcelona
2. Valencia
3. Real Madrid (just to see them go through qualifying (6))
4. Sevilla (they deserve CL football)

As much as I want Osasuna to make it into the CL, its just not going to happen. There's no way they're going to beat Valencia.

I know but I'm pretty sure you'll beat Real, hence the fact that I'm not feeling too confident about Osasuna's chances. Even though they're at home, I think Valencia will get the job done.

Gonna be thrilling no doubt. I'd rather see Sevilla in Champions than Osasuna, I feel they have more possibilitites to have a good actuation in that competition next year. But it's impossible that Madrid ends up 2nd and Sevilla 4th, isn't it?

I also want Sevilla in the CL, I think that it is indeed impossible for us to end up 2nd and them 4th, I only got these to work. If Valencia and Sevilla win than it ends up like this.

2. Valencia 72
3. Real Madrid 70
4. Sevilla 68
5. Osasuna 65

Or if they beat us and Valencia draws Osasuna it will look like this

2. Valencia 70
3. Real Madrid 70
4. Sevilla 68
5. Osasuna 66

Or if Valencia win and we draw they go to CL as well.

Correct me if I am wrong?

So... :chew: anyways I am not so confident that we can win.

Go Valencia.

Between Sevilla and Osasuna.. I don't care. Sevilla have better team but Osasuna have been there all the season.

ARGH!! Goal annulled. Please somebody tell me if it was fairly annulled.

According to the radio station, the goal was absolutely legal and the fans who are seeing the replay are furious.

There saying he was offside but I cant tell, they only showed one replay.

Ok after seeing the replay looks like he was onside, there was another Sevilla player by the post that was offside but J. Navarro was onside. (:/)
