What will happen to La Liga table, if Sevilla won the last match and both barca and real madrid draw?
At the moment La Liga leader is Real Madrid due to their head to head record against second place Barcelona and Sevilla trailing by 2 points behind them. My question is what will happen if Sevilla won the last match and both real madrid and barca draw? Sevilla will have better head to head record against Real Madrid, but Barcelona will have better head to head record against Sevilla. With all of top three club in rock-paper-scissor condition and same points, who will officially become the league winner? I posted similar question before but I rephrase it.

Somebody gave this answer yesterday. The head-to-head matches for the three teams will be used in a simplified table. If you compare the wins, losses, and draws of these three teams against each other, Real Madrid will win since they have the high points.
Club = W + L + D = Points
Barcelona = 1W + 2L + 1D = 4 points
Sevilla = 2W + 2L + 0D = 6 points
Real Madrid = 3W + 0L + 1D = 10 points
