Real Madrid has a chance to clinch the Spanish League title Thursday as it takes on Villareal. Madrid, currently holds a four-point lead over in La Liga over rivals FC Barcelona and could clinch its first title in three years with a win. A loss or draw from Barcelona would also clinch the title for a Madrid team that has been dominant on both ends of the pitch, allowing a league-low 22 goals in 36 matches while scoring the second-most goals in the league with 66. The dominant defense has been led by captain Sergio Ramos along with stars Nacho and Marcelo. On offense Karim Benzema has been the lead scorer with Toni Kroos and Luka Modric making major contributions as well. In Madrid’s way is a Villareal team that sits fifth in the standings and has scored the third-most goals in the league with 58. Villareal is led by Gerard Moreno (16 goals) and Santi Cazorla (11 goals) on offense.

A look at what’s happening around European soccer on Thursday:
SPAIN
Real Madrid has its first chance to clinch the Spanish league title when it hosts Villarreal at the Alfredo Di Stéfano Stadium. A win will secure Madrid its first league title in three years. It enters the penultimate round with a four-point lead over Barcelona, which faces Osasuna at the Camp Nou Stadium at the same time. A loss or a draw for the two-time defending champions will also be enough for Madrid. Zinedine Zidane's team has won all nine games since the league resumed following the pandemic break.
ENGLAND
The chase for Champions League places heats up with Leicester and Manchester United in action, and only goal difference separating them. Fourth-place Leicester plays first on Thursday against Sheffield United before Manchester United takes on Crystal Palace. At the other end of the standings, Aston Villa still has a hope of staying in the Premier League. Victory at Everton would take Villa a point from safety with two games remaining. Brighton can stay up with a victory over Southampton.
ITALY
Inter Milan can boost its faint hopes of winning the Serie A title with victory at bottom-place Spal. A win would see Antonio Conte’s side move second in Serie A, six points behind Juventus after the league leader was surprisingly held 3-3 at Sassuolo on Wednesday. There are five rounds remaining after Thursday’s matches. Spal is 11 points from safety. Torino hosts Genoa in a direct battle to avoid relegation. Torino is four points above Genoa and five above the drop zone.
