As the matchdays progress, FC Barcelona is consolidating itself as the main favorite to be crowned champion of Liga EA Sports 2024/25. Hansi Flick's team currently leads the standings with 76 points, surpassing Real Madrid (their closest pursuer) by a difference of four units, with only five matches remaining.
The projections are already positioning Barcelona as the next league champion. Specifically, the OPTA supercomputer —known for its predictions in competitions such as the UEFA Champions League— has carried out a new statistical study that places the Blaugrana team with an 87.1% probability of winning the title. For its part, Real Madrid is left with just a 12.9% chance, while Atlético de Madrid, third in the standings, has been ruled out of the fight for the championship.
This is how the European places in LaLiga EA Sports 2024/25 would be according to OPTA:
According to the same OPTA analysis, the European positions would be distributed as follows:
- 📌 UEFA Champions League: FC Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid would occupy the first three places. They would be joined by Athletic Club, with an 89.5% chance of finishing in fourth place.
- 📌 The fifth place, won this season by LaLiga EA Sports for the Champions League, would be for Villarreal CF, which has a 54% probability.
- 📌 UEFA Europa League: Real Betis would be in sixth position (57%) and Celta de Vigo is shaping up as the seventh classified, with a 49.5% chance.
- 📌 UEFA Conference League: RCD Mallorca would be the team with the most options to stay with the eighth European place, with a 27.1% probability.
What about the candidates for relegation in LaLiga EA Sports 2024/25?
Regarding relegation, with Real Valladolid already with their quota secured for the silver category of Spanish football, OPTA points out that the other two teams that could accompany them would be:
- 📌 CD Leganés, with a 63.6% chance of finishing in the penultimate position.
- 📌 UD Las Palmas, with a 32.9% probability of falling to eighteenth place.
With five matchdays to go, it remains to be seen whether the predictions of the OPTA supercomputer are fulfilled or if there is still room for surprises in this exciting final stretch of Liga EA Sports 2024/25.
