The numbers make it clear that Xavi's first round of Barça is better than it seems

It finished the first turn of LaLiga and although the FC Barcelona still is in the career by the leadership, at present in hands of the Girona FC and of the Real Madrid with 48 points each one, attained to ensure the third position with 41 units. This register, at first sight, could seem low, but in reality is very well if we compare it with at least the four previous campaigns.

The Barça topped his 2ª better first turn in LaLiga in the last 5 years

The 41 points added in the meridian of this alone period are surpassed by the 50 obtained in the season 2022/2023. In this occasion, the Barcelona cast finished the first turn comandando the table clasificatoria and turned into champion of the local tournament when finalising the campaign with 88 units, establishing a difference of +10 on his perseguidor nearer, the square merengue.

By his part, what has attained up to now the picture of the City Condal in the campaign 2023/2024 surpass the made by the Barcelona in the periods 2021/2022 and 2020/2021. In these courses, the culés finished the first turn with 31 and 37 points, respectively, and lamentably did not attain to do with the title of champion.

The last register of the first turns of the FC Barcelona in the last four seasons of LaLiga, in downward order, shows that in the campaign 2019/2020 the club culé obtained 40 points. Therefore, excepting the 50 units achieved in the half of the past period, that was an exceptional season to level of game, remains clear that the picture culé goes advancing in his registers. It will be interesting to see how the cast of the Catalan capital recovers in what it subtracts of LaLiga, considering besides that it has to trace back a difference +7 in front of the gerundenses and the merengues.
