How the Points System Works

Understanding the La Liga points system is vital to learn the significance of the standings. These standings show how the teams are performing over the season.

In La Liga, the team gains 3 points for winning the match. When a game goes tied, both teams get 1 point. Goal difference can be the deciding factor when teams are tied on points.

The teams at the bottom of the table face a daunting challenge to avoid relegation. La Liga follows a promotion and demotion system with the Segunda Division. The top teams from Segunda earn a spot in La Liga, while the bottom clubs face relegation.

Conclusion

La Liga’s standings and table reflect the dynamic nature of Spanish football. With robust competition at the top and the battle to avoid relegation at the bottom, every match matters. So, whether you’re cheering for Barcelona, Real Madrid, or any other team, La Liga promises excitement and unpredictability.
