Real Madrid vs. Las Palmas live stream: Watch La Liga online



La Liga leaders Real Madrid came back from a 2-0 deficit to win 3-2 at Villarreal on Sunday to avoid what would have been an unbelievable second straight league loss. Gareth Bale started and lasted nearly the full 90 minutes, scoring the goal that started the furious comeback. He looks to be nearly back to full speed after returning from injury.

The win leaves Real one point ahead of Barcelona, who also play Wednesday, with a game in hand. After their struggles in their last two league matches, manager Zinedine Zidane will hope his club has an easier time securing three points on Wednesday.

Las Palmas are currently a not-horrible 12th place. What is horrible is that they have lost their last four La Liga matches. This has left them five points behind 11th-place Alaves as they travel into extremely hostile territory. They’ll cling to the small sliver of hope that is Real Madrid’s recent struggles, but a result Wednesday seems highly unlikely.

Barcelona vs. Sporting Gijón, 2017 La Liga: Team News



Let's get this straight right off the bat: this has been a bad Barcelona season. The performances get worse and worse, the Champions League is basically over, and there have been almost zero games that got us excited about a team that signed great young players to strengthen the bench in the summer and still maintained a world-class starting unit.

During this poor, inconsistent season, we need to try and look at a few positives: Samuel Umtiti looks like the real deal and capable of leading the Blaugrana defense for the next decade; Marc-André ter Stegen has established himself as the undisputed goalkeeper and a very talented one; Lionel Messi is Lionel Messi, and the 'MSN' trio is still capable of producing even though the collective quality has completely gone south.

The most impressive thing about this season, however, is the one we're not talking about: a 17-match unbeaten streak in La Liga. This may seem like not a big deal because Barça don't lead La Liga and will probably need a victory at Santiago Bernabéu to have a shot at beating Real Madrid and winning a third straight league title. But going 17 matches without a loss even though the team hasn't played well in at least a dozen of those games is a testament to how good this team is.

Imagine if this team was well coached? We'll probably have to wait for Jorge Sampaoli to see this team being well coached again, but until the summer Luis Enrique is the man and he'll try to lead his mediocre team into an improbable La Liga trophy. The next challenge is Sporting Gijón at Camp Nou, and if Barça can reach 18 games without a loss, the streak will continue and league glory may still be a possibility.

Here's the problem, though: Barça's season has been so poor that we don't know if Barça can actually beat one of the worst teams in Spain. It's game by game, and the win won't come because of the coach.
