Barça seek quick end to title race

BARCELONA — Barcelona have a second chance to wrap up their fourth La Liga title in five years this weekend as they stumble towards the end of the season and a much-needed re-grouping at the club after their Champions League humiliation.

The leaders host Real Betis tomorrow having been swept out of their semifinal 7-0 on aggregate by a far superior Bayern Munich on Wednesday.

With five games left, Barça hold an 11-point lead over second-placed Real Madrid, who host Real Valladolid today.
