Covered in gold: LaLiga Matchday 33 recap & Copa final preview

from La Liga Lowdown

A regal theme on this week's podcast after a frenetic week of action.As the UK is set to officially crown Charles III, in Spain it is the King's Cup which is the focus this weekend. Join Matt Clark (@MattClark_08) and Paco Polit (@pacopolitENG) to review Matchday 33 and look ahead to Saturday's showpiece in Seville.In LaLiga, a few big questions were answered and others moved a long way towards being resolved.Barça recorded a record-equalling 11th 1-0 victory to put themselves one step away from confirming their title. They will be crowned if they win away at Espanyol next weekend. We also discussed some significant off-field developments at Camp Nou.Real Madrid's abdication from the throne is confirmed as they slipped to third after a defeat at Real Sociedad. Imanol’s side are getting closer and closer to securing Champions League football.Atleti are now a free-scoring Antoine Griezmann machine and they scored five for the second successive match.At the bottom, Elche's relegation was confirmed as Almería beat them 2-1. Elsewhere, José Bordalás was back at the Coliseum and it was as if he had never left. The battle to avoid joining Elche is hotter than ever, with five points separating six clubs.There's praise for Girona too, as they are 7th and now best-placed to grab a potential European spot. In Part Two, we preview the highly-anticipated Copa del Rey final on Saturday night. We deliberate on how the teams arrive, what it would mean to win it, and how the game might pan out.Before we finish, Paco gives us his take on the outcome of the final, with both his head and his heart competing. Whatever the end result, we hope it provides a spectacle fit for a King.As always, keep across everything @LaLigaLowdown and subscribe to our Substack at lllonline.substack.com. Hosted on Acast.
