Barcelona traveled to Vitoria-Gasteiz on Sunday to take on Alavés in a game that, with a win, could help them keep pace in the La Liga title race. The Spanish giants head into the fixture in blistering form, having scored seven goals against Valencia in the last matchday.
Currently sitting 18th in La Liga, the odds are firmly against the Basque club, and Barcelona fielded a strong lineup, with Hansi Flick looking to keep the pressure on Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid ahead.
For fans in India, however, there’s a setback. GXR World, the platform that streams La Liga in the country, has once again stopped working.
Technical difficulties have struck GXR World once again, although the timing is far worse than their previous outage during the winter break. While they managed to restore service before league play resumed last time, this disruption comes at a particularly critical moment when Spanish teams are engaged in pivotal matches.
The company took to X (formerly Twitter) to address the situation, confirming that La Liga matches would be unavailable on their platform this weekend. Their statement acknowledged the issue, promising swift action: “We’re working on resolving this as quickly as possible to bring you back the action you love! Thank you for your patience and support.”
🚨 LALIGA Streaming Update🚨
Hey GXR fans, unfortunately, due to technical issues, we won’t be streaming LALIGA matches this weekend.
We’re working on resolving this as quickly as possible to bring you back the action you love! Thank you for your patience and support.

How to watch Alaves vs FC Barcelona
Due to GXR World’s ongoing platform issues, Indian viewers are left without any legitimate options to watch this important La Liga match. The situation is particularly challenging as no other official broadcasters are currently operating in the Indian market.
While fans might be tempted to turn to alternative streaming sites such as Total Sportek, we must caution against using these unauthorized services.
Not only are these streams illegal, but they also come with significant drawbacks including unstable connections, subpar video quality, and potential cybersecurity threats. The recommended course of action is to await the restoration of official broadcasting services.
