Atletico Madrid could become champions on Sunday: The remaining fixtures

Atletico Madrid secured a vital win in the race for the LaLiga Santander title on Wednesday night with a 2-1 home victory over Real Sociedad.

This triumph gave Diego Simeone's side a four-point lead over Barcelona and a five-point lead over Real Madrid.

Here is a look at how things are shaping up for the rest of the season.

Atletico Madrid, on 80 points will face Osasuna at home on Sunday before a trip to Real Valladolid on Matchday 38.

Barcelona have collected 76 points after 36 matches, with Real Madrid now emerging as Atletico's main threat to their title hopes, with 75 points after 35 games.

Los Blancos face Granada on Thursday evening, before a trip to Athletic Club on Sunday, followed by a home clash with Villarreal a week later.

Should Atletico slip up and the points end up being level, Real Madrid would win LaLiga Santander due to their superior head-to-head record.
