With FC Barcelona 11 points clear of Real Madrid, the only potential rival for the title, with four games to play, it is simply a matter of when, not if, the Catalans become the 2025/26 LaLiga EA Sports champions. And anything other than a win for Los Blancos on Sunday will see it confirmed in El Clásico.

Often as fans of our chosen teams, we focus on the here and now, but it’s also worth an occasional trip down memory lane, especially if that gives you something to cling to if your rivals are celebrating in the moment. So with Barça players readying themselves for domestic title number 29, how does that compare to the tally of Madrid and other Spanish clubs?
