2025–26 La Liga
Updated: 11/16/2025, 2:00:39 PM Wikipedia source
The 2025–26 La Liga, also known as La Liga EA Sports due to sponsorship reasons, is the 95th season of La Liga, Spain's top-flight football competition. It began on 15 August 2025 and will end on 24 May 2026. The match schedule was published on 1 July 2025. Barcelona are the defending champions, having won their 28th title the previous season. Early in the season, La Liga announced plans for a match between Villarreal and Barcelona, which was to be held on 20 December at Hard Rock Stadium in the Miami metro area in the United States. This was to mark the first La Liga match ever to be played outside of Spain. The match, initially moved out of La Cerámica, was moved back to Villarreal on 21 October, following protests from La Liga's teams and fans.
