What is La Liga?
La Liga, Spain’s premier professional football division, features 20 teams competing over a 38-match season. Founded in 1929 with 10 teams, La Liga has a rich history and is renowned for its competitiveness and quality.
La Liga follows a double round-robin format, running from August to May. The 2025-2026 season runs from 15 August 2025 to 24 May 2026.
During the season, each club plays all others once at home and once away, totaling 38 matches. Teams earn three points for a win, one for a draw, and none for a loss. The team with the highest points at the end of the season is crowned champion.
La Liga operates a promotion and relegation system with the Segunda División. The three lowest-placed teams are relegated, while the top two teams from the Segunda División are promoted. The third promotion spot is decided through playoffs involving the third to sixth-placed Segunda División teams.
Over the decades, La Liga has seen periods of dominance by different clubs. In the 1940s, Valencia, Atlético Madrid, and Barcelona were the top teams. Real Madrid and Barcelona shared dominance in the 1950s. Real Madrid asserted control in the 1960s and 1970s, while the 1980s and 1990s saw successes by Basque clubs Athletic Club and Real Sociedad.
From the 1990s onwards, Barcelona has been particularly successful, winning 28 titles to date, including the most recent in 2024-25. Real Madrid has claimed 36 titles.
La Liga is one of the most popular football leagues globally, and ranks as the seventh wealthiest sports league in the world by revenue. Historically, La Liga clubs have excelled in European competitions, winning the most UEFA Champions League and Europa League titles.
The league has also produced numerous Ballon d'Or winners, further cementing its reputation as a leading football competition, and a favorite of sports bettors. Engage with the excitement of La Liga by betting on matches with crypto at Cloudbet.
Who are the favorites for La Liga 2025-2026?
The 2025–2026 La Liga season promises a tightly contested battle at the top, with familiar powerhouses jostling for supremacy and a few outsiders hoping to disrupt the status quo.
Reigning champions Barcelona enter with confidence after dominating El Clásico last season, but Real Madrid - stacked with attacking talent and led by new managerial leadership - are out for revenge. Here's how the main contenders stack up.
- Real Madrid: The Spanish giants enter the 2025–2026 La Liga season as betting favorites, eager to reclaim the title after falling short last year and suffering a clean sweep of El Clásico defeats. With Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior leading the attack, they remain loaded but face questions around domestic focus amid a busy Champions League calendar.
- Barcelona: Barca returns as defending champions under Hansi Flick after a dominant season including four wins over Real Madrid. However, concerns exist over financial constraints limiting transfer depth and injury cover.
- Atletico Madrid: Atletico remains a strong contender, offering tactical discipline and physical intensity under Diego Simeone. While offensive upgrades like Julián Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth fuel hopes of a title challenge, bookmakers suggest a top-four finish is a more realistic target.
- Villarreal: This club maintains an attacking flair in its footballing style, but its long title odds reflect defensive vulnerabilities that could undermine consistency in a title race. Villareal is seen more as a contender for European spots than a serious threat to the top three.
The odds tell a clear story, but La Liga rarely plays out by the book, especially when tactical brilliance, squad depth, and momentum begin to shift mid-season. For those looking to engage with the action, consider placing your bets on La Liga with bitcoin at Cloudbet.
