The Big La Liga Preview Show 26/27

Hello Rank Squad!

La Liga returns this weekend, and thus it's time for our big preview - even if it feels like mere days since the World Cup ended! We start in Part One with a look at the Big Three - a Barcelona side looking for three league titles in a row, a Real Madrid side now under Jose Mourinho bringing in plenty of new faces to try and overturn the power balance, and an Atletico Madrid under major pressure to close the gap to their El Clasico rivals.

In Part Two, Jack is joined by the brilliant Ruairidh Barlow to talk through the rest of the division and the storylines you should be keeping an eye on that might not make so many of the headlines. We discuss all of the other Spanish teams in Europe this season - Villarreal, Real Betis, Real Sociedad, Celta Vigo and Getafe; to see what the campaign looks like for them.

And then in Part Three, there's some chat about new managers, namely Edin Terzic at Athletic Club and Beñat San Jose at Rayo Vallecano, as well as a look at three promoted sides with serious pedigree in the top flight, the returning Deportivo de a Coruña, Malaga and Racing Santander, to see how they will cope with life back at the top table.

It's Ranks!

And remember, if you’d like more from the Rank Squad, including extra podcasts every Monday and Friday (including our weekly Postbox taking a look at the whole weekend of football) and access to our brilliant Discord community, then why not join us here on Patreon?
