La Liga early-season table shows Barcelona and Real Madrid level on points

The latest La Liga table shows a tight race at the top, with both FC Barcelona and Real Madrid CF recording perfect three‑match records and 9 points each.
Barcelona’s three wins give them a 100 % record (3‑0‑0) and a goal‑rich start, while Real Madrid’s identical early form mirrors the Catalan side’s momentum.
Over the longer eight‑match stretch, Real Madrid have pulled ahead, sitting on 21 points from seven wins and one loss, whereas Barcelona sit second with 19 points from six wins, one draw and one defeat.
Club Atlético de Madrid remains in the mix, holding 17 points after eight games (5‑2‑1) and sitting third, just two points behind Barcelona.
Sevilla FC have accumulated 11 points from eight fixtures (3‑2‑3), placing them fourth, while Deportivo Alavés, CA Osasuna and a second Sevilla entry each have seven points from three matches, reflecting early consistency.
The lower‑placed Sevilla side, with six points from three games (2‑0‑1), trails the early leaders but still retains a chance to climb as the season progresses.
If the current trends hold, the title race could tighten around Real Madrid and Barcelona, with Atlético Madrid poised to challenge, while mid‑table clubs look to close the gap in the weeks ahead.
