A report based on statistical data has drawn up the final classification
Technology has become a fundamental part of the world of football, as teams currently have all kinds of tools to measure the different statistics. So much so that now we know what it would be Athletic’s classification in the Santander League relying only on statistical criteria. But we have not only known the classification of the Bilbao team, but also of many other clubs.
Without a doubt, this has generated a lot of debate, especially among the fans of the teams that are fighting for the championship, those that are competing for the european posts and those who try to avoid the decline. A descent that would have three clearly injuredalthough this is just statistics and something very different is what happens on the pitch.
Athletic’s classification in the Santander League
As for the team led by Ernesto Valverde, it would not improve its position compared to last season. Last year they were in eighth position, just four points from seventh place that leads to the Conference League. A position occupied by Villarreal CF, while this year it would be for Real Betis.
In the same way, his main pursuit would be Valencia CF again, as happened last season. In this way, and if the statistics do not fail, Athletic would once again be out of European competition. Something that would be a failure for the club, which hoped to return to the Europa League at the hands of Valverde.
The champion, European positions and relegation according to statistics
As far as the champion is concerned, it would again be Real Madrid with Atlético de Madrid in second place and FC Barcelona in third. The fourth place in the Champions League would be Sevilla FC, while the places in the Europa League would go to Real Sociedad, who would qualify for the fourth consecutive year, and Villarreal CF. For its part, Real Betis would take over the place in the Conference League.
Finally, another of the most important aspects is the relegation zone. According to this criterion, the big losers would be Girona FC, RCD Mallorca and Cádiz CF. Elche CF, Real Valladolid and UD Almería, who would be the next teams out of the relegation zone, would be narrowly saved. Now we just have to wait to see how it all ends, but a tough season is expected for Athletic if they want to enter the European zone.
