La Liga finishes with relegation, European berths in play
Friday, 22 May 2026
BARCELONA, Spain, May 21 (AP): The final day of La Liga promises drama with more than half the teams either eyeing the prize of playing in Europe or locked in a desperate fight to avoid relegation.
After 37 rounds, a tightly packed table has five teams still with a chance of classifying for the Europa League or Conference League, as well as six clubs in danger of going down on the final day.
Celta Vigo is Europe-bound but can end up either in the second-tier Europa League or the third-tier Conference League. Getafe is likewise in the running for either competition, but it could just as easily be left empty-handed with Rayo Vallecano, Valencia and Espanyol each with a shot at snatching the Conference League berth.
