The relegation battle in La Liga is nail-biting.

The relegation battle in La Liga has entered its most nail-biting phase of the season, with the gap between teams almost completely erased in the final rounds.

Sevilla (in white shirts) are at risk of relegation.

Following the midweek matches, the situation at the bottom of the table has become more unpredictable than ever. A notable case is Espanyol, a team that was in the top six at the start of the season but is now in freefall. Since the beginning of 2026, they have only earned 5 points from 15 matches (5 draws, 10 losses), a performance not unlike Tottenham's in England.

On a league-wide scale, the gap between the relegation zone is extremely narrow, with only 6 points separating Alaves in 18th place and Osasuna in 10th. Even bottom teams like Real Oviedo and Levante still have a chance to avoid relegation.

The remaining five fixtures are expected to be crucial. Valencia will face a series of strong opponents such as Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, ​​while Mallorca and Rayo have a somewhat easier schedule with more direct rivals.

According to The Athletic , Real Oviedo and Levante are struggling, while the relegation battle could be a fight to the death between Elche, Alaves, and Sevilla. Valencia are also not entirely safe from relegation for the first time in 40 years.

Meanwhile, Sevilla has been the biggest disappointment, teetering on the brink of relegation. The former European champions are only one point ahead of Alaves. If they don't improve their situation, Sevilla are at serious risk of playing in the lower leagues next season.

With a series of crucial relegation battles ahead, La Liga promises to deliver many more shocks. Spanish media believe that the relegation battle this season is even more dramatic than the championship race.
