Today's top streaks: Champions elect Barcelona set to relegate former LaLiga winners

 

A quick run down of the longest streaks to keep an eye on from today’s action takes us to LaLiga and Serie A, but we start in Holland this time around.

Reigning Eredivisie champions Feyenoord have left their best run of form this season too late, missing out on a top three finish despite being on a six-game winning streak.

If they can extend that run to seven this weekend it would ensure that opponents Sparta Rotterdam will finish in a relegation play-off place at best.

Meanwhile Barcelona are hoping to keep their record breaking unbeaten run intact in Spain as they continue their bid to become the first team in LaLiga history to play an entire league campaign without losing a game. Moreover, victory tonight would ensure that the Catalans regain their crown from fierce rivals Real Madrid.

The side trying to end that run tonight are in dire need of the three points, with Deportivo needing a miracle to beat the drop, with maximum points from their remaining four matches and a huge swing in goal difference too after Levante’s victory over Sevilla.

Elsewhere, in Italy Udinese are sinking like a stone and this afternoon’s clash with already-relegated, bottom club Benevento could yet be very damaging.

An 11-game losing streak at present is comfortably the worst in Europe’s top five leagues and shorter only than their hosts’ today’s streak of 14 consecutive defeats at the start of the season. Just four points clear of the drop, Udinese need a victory with both Crotone and SPAL facing winnable fixtures today.
