2007–08 La Liga


The 2007–08 La Liga season, the 77th since its establishment, started on 25 August 2007 and finished on 18 May 2008. Real Madrid defended their La Liga title successfully after a 2–1 victory over Osasuna. This season, all European leagues ended earlier than the previous season, due to the UEFA Euro 2008 championship. It also was the first year of the new La Liga television agreement that had La Sexta mark its first year of television broadcasting.
2007-08 season was the last time FC Barcelona finished below top-two to date.

Teams

Twenty teams competed in the league – the top seventeen teams from the previous season and the three teams promoted from the Segunda División. The promoted teams were Valladolid, Almería and Murcia. Valladolid and Murcia returned to the top flight after an absence of three years while Almería returned to the top fight after an absence of twenty six years. They replaced Celta de Vigo, Real Sociedad and Gimnàstic, ending their top flight spells of two, forty and one year respectively.
