We’re heading into the final fortnight of LaLiga 2025/26, and the title could be clinched this weekend when Barcelona host Real Madrid in El Clasico.
Elsewhere, it’s still incredibly tight at the bottom. Just three points currently separate Alaves in 18th, and Valencia in 12th. The first three games of this gameweek will all have a huge impact on shaping the relegation scrap.
Here are our LaLiga predicted lineups for matchday 35. All kick-off times are based on the local time in Spain. Players in bold are those considered to have the highest chance of starting (80% or more).
