Here’s a **clean, responsive layout** for an **“Upcoming LaLiga Matchday Fixtures” widget** that you can embed in sidebars, footers, or match‑details pages. The design keeps your existing wrapper classes and is ready to turn into HTML/CSS or a WordPress widget.
***
### 1. **Outer Widget Container**
Keep your existing container class (e.g., `widget`, `card`, `col-4`) and wrap the widget like this:
“`html
Upcoming LaLiga Fixtures – Matchday 38
“`
***
### 2. **Matchday Header & Info**
Show the matchday label and date above the matches:
“`html
“`
***
### 3. **List of Fixtures (Each Match Row)**
For each upcoming fixture, use a compact card‑style row:
“`html
“`
Repeat this block for each match. For a 5‑match sample:
– **Barcelona vs Real Madrid** (El Clásico – 21:00)
– **Atlético Madrid vs Villarreal** (19:00)
– **Real Betis vs Celta Vigo** (21:00)

***
### 4. **Compact Version (No Logos)**

“`html
21:00
Real Madrid
“`
***
### 5. **Footer / “View All” Link**
Add a small call‑to‑action at the bottom:
“`html
“`
***
### 6. **Recommended CSS‑Class Version (for your theme)**
If you want to strip inline styles and keep your classes, structure it like this:
“`html
“`
Then style `.upcoming-matches-widget`, `.fixture-row`, `.team`, and `.match-time` in your CSS to match the layout above.
***
If you tell me your **CSS framework** (e.g., Bootstrap, Tailwind, custom), I can give you a full class‑only stylesheet snippet tailored to your theme.
