La Liga 2023-24: Atletico Vs Girona Kicks Off Super Saturday As League Returns To Action (preview)

Spanish La Liga: Following a mini pause for the Copa del Rey final, the Spanish La Liga resumes this coming weekend, continuing with several hugely important direct duels in the race for spots in the Continental event.

The fact that Athletic Bilbao won the cup and are also sitting in the European qualification position means that seventh place in the standings would now grant access to next season’s Conference League. As such, the battle to play continental football has become even wider and the Monday night duel between CA Osasuna and Valencia CF is all the more important.

Real Betis are one of the teams who are targeting that seventh place, and they host the opening fixture of the round when RC Celta visit the Estadio Benito Villamarín on Friday night. Currently eighth and just two points off seventh, Los Verdiblancos have a good chance of qualifying for Europe for a fourth season in a row, however, they have lost each of their past four matches and need to show a reaction.
