Outright forecasts for the results of La Liga 2026/2027 season
Who will be the champion of Spain in the 2026/2027 season?
Over the past two seasons in Spain, Hansi Flick's team has been dominating. Under the German specialist, the Catalan team has gained stability and returned to its usual attacking style. This transfer window, the Blaugrana strengthened their squad by signing Gordon and Adeyemi. Cancelo and Rodri are also on the way. Barça also plans to sign a top striker to replace Lewandowski. The team will definitely be stronger compared to the previous season and more experienced.
The only competitor to the Catalans is Real Madrid. In terms of squad, it is in no way inferior to the reigning champion. However, they were unable to get rid of the imbalance after the transfer window, no "brain" was bought for the midfield, and expectations from Jose Mourinho, who in recent years has frankly shown results below his standards everywhere, are absolutely vague. Therefore, we see "Blaugrana" as the favorite of the race. So, the editorial prediction is - Barcelona will become the champion of La Liga in the upcoming season.
Who will make it to the top-4 of La Liga at the end of the 2026/2027 season?
Perhaps, predicting the top three in the Spanish championship is an extremely easy task. But the fight for the fourth place will undoubtedly be serious. There are plenty of contenders here: Villarreal with new coach Inigo Perez, Athletic Bilbao with the Williams brothers coming into their own, strong Betis with a very solid and experienced squad, and even the current holder of the Cup Real Sociedad.
However, we see Betis in the status of the fourth team of La Liga. Pellegrini remained as the head coach of the team, which means it will continue to stick to its line, playing modern attacking football. Over the past five seasons, the Sevillians have never dropped out of the top-7 and have been fifth three times. It seems that finally, Antoni and co should break through. So, the editorial choice: Barça, Real, Atletico and Betis will make it to the top-4 of La Liga.
Who will be relegated to Segunda at the end of the 2026/2027 season?
We will not predict the trio of relegated teams... But we will try to hit with one team! In our opinion, Malaga will be relegated from La Liga at the end of the upcoming season. In the last Segunda draw, it was only fourth after the regular championship and barely grabbed a ticket to La Liga in the playoffs. But Malaga's squad frankly does not match the level of La Liga. We believe that the team of Sergio Garcia Pellicer has no chances to maintain its elite status.
Who will be the top scorer of La Liga in the 2026/2027 season?
There seems to be no intrigue here at all. Kylian Mbappe has no competitors in the Spanish championship. Two years agoThe Frenchman moved to La Liga. And since then, the "Pichichi" trophy has been his. There are no other top and consistent snipers in La Liga. Yes, someone from the Barcelona squad will surely create the illusion of competition for Kylian at the beginning of the season. However, considering how evenly the Catalans distribute goals in the attack line, they will not be able to catch up with Real's forward. We predict that Mbappe will once again become the top scorer of the Spanish championship.
Who will become the best assistant of the Spanish championship?
The race here promises to be extremely exciting. Real has Guler, Vinicius, and Bellingham; Barca has Pedri, Olmo, and Fermin; Atletico has Baena and Lee Kang-in; Betis has Isco and Antony. There are indeed plenty of options. But we believe that Lamin Yamal will become the best assistant in La Liga. The Barcelona winger created the most significant moments (12) in the last Champions League season and provided the most assists in La Liga (11). There is no doubt that in the new season, Lamin will be a key player for the Catalans in creation and will supply his teammates with great passes.
