Jose Mourinho has said that the La Liga title is not sewn up yet after Real Madrid's title rivals Barcelona suffered another setback yesterday.
Barca went down 3-2 at Osasuna to leave Mourinho's men seven points clear at the top with a game in hand.
The Portuguese former Chelsea boss suggested that Los Blancos have a much tougher run-in than their Catalan counterparts.
"February is possibly more difficult for us than Barcelona as we take on Levante, Racing (Santander) who are improving, Rayo (Vallecano), without doubt the surprise package this season, and then Espanyol, who are fighting for a place in Europe," he said.
"Levante are a good side and not just for the fact they have beaten Barcelona but also for where they are in the table. In October and November everyone thought they would run out of steam."
Madrid can extend their lead to double figures if they triumph when Levante visit the Bernabeu this evening.
