After tonight’s defeat of Atletico Madrid by Naturhouse la Rioja with 31:30 away, it seems that ASOBAL is on the way to being decided already after this round as Barcelona is most likely to win against Anaitasuna. Not just that, but Barcelona has been playing a magnificent season and easily have beaten Atletico Madrid in all match-ups so far, while Dushebayev struggles to keep his team competitive with Barcelona, and the defeat at La Rioja might mean that +5 points for Barcelona on the table are too much.
