The Spanish La Liga will return with the Derby between Sevilla and Real Betis on Thursday, June 11.
Spain’s Higher Council of Sport (CSD) said it had agreed resumption plans with the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) and La Liga.
Last Saturday, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez gave a green light for football activities in Spain to resume as from June 8th.
The CSD issued a statement that confirmed the La Liga campaign will end on the weekend of July 18-19.
‘’At a meeting of the contact group they form alongside the CSD, the Spanish soccer federation (RFEF) and La Liga have agreed to the format of the final 11 rounds of fixtures of La Liga and the second division,” said the statement.
”The competition will restart on the weekend of June 13 and 14, with the first match being Sevilla’s game with Real Betis on Thursday June 11.
“The last round of matches will take place, provisionally and depending on the evolution of the virus, on the weekend of July 18 and 19.”
All the games will be played without spectators.
FC Barcelona are on top of the La Liga table, two points ahead of second-placed Real Madrid.
