The Spanish government confirmed La Liga will return from June 11 after a three month stoppage for coronavirus.

"The Spanish football federation [RFEF] and La Liga have agreed, as part of the Contact Group formed together with the National Sports Council [CSD], the format of the eleven remaining matchdays to complete La Liga Santander and La Liga SmartBank,” said the CSD on Friday.

The first game back, as expected, will be Sevilla v Real Betis, an Andalusian derby and Barca are poised to visit Mallorca on the Sunday 14.

 

Matches will be played behind closed doors for the rest of this season and games will take place every day as they look to get the fixtures wrapped up.
