The fight to stay in the league is at its most exciting part of the season with just two games to go in Liga BBVA. With Córdoba now mathematically down, there are four places that six sides are fighting it out for above the drop zone available. Levante UD, Getafe CF, UD Almería, RC Deportivo, Granada CF and SD Eibar are all in the mix with six points left to play for.
Levante UD, 14th with 36 points
The side from Valencia are in 14th on 36 points, five above Granada in the final Liga BBVA relegation spot. Lucas Alcaraz's side know that a win would keep them up mathematically, and they have a big game against direct rivals, Deportivo de la Coruña, in matchday 37. They finish the season at home against Elche CF, with the chance of already knowing they are safe.
Getafe CF, 15th with 36 points
On the same number of points as Levante, and just one place below are Getafe. The Madrid outfit also face a direct rival on matchday 37, hosting Eibar in a game that will have a big say on things at the bottom. Pablo Franco's side finish their season at the Bernabéu against Real Madrid CF.
UD Almería, 16th with 32 points
The side from Andalusia are just one point above the drop zone and go into the final sprint facing the sides fighting it out for the fourth and final Champions League spot. In matchday 37 they face Sevilla at the Sánchez Pizjuán and they finish the season at home to Valencia CF.
RC Deportivo, 17th with 31 points
The Galician outfit are one of three sides on 31 points. They have a favourable goal average against Granada and Eibar, meaning they are currently out of the danger zone. Víctor Sánchez del Amo's side this weekend host Levante UD, and will finish up against Barcelona, who could still be battling for the Liga BBVA title.
Granada CF, ports with 31 points
The side from Andalusia go into the final stretch of games after recording two consecutive wins. They now have games against Real Sociedad and Atlético Madrid. José Ramón Sandoval's side go to the Basque Country to take on a side already safe and out of the running for Europe, and the reigning champions, who might need a win to secure third place.
SD Eibar, 19th with 31 points
The fight for survival sees Eibar battling for their lives and as things stand they are going down. Gaizka Garitano's men have two huge games against Getafe, who need a win to ensure safety, and Córdoba CF, who are already down.
