Are Sevilla Contenders for La Liga?

Related Topics: Atlético Madrid, Guido Pizarro

Atletico Madrid drew again, this time against Leganes. That’s their third draw in seven games, and that puts them three points behind Barcelona. Now, the Catalans have a chance to extend that lead to six points with a win against Las Palmas. Meanwhile, Real Madrid are seven points behind Barcelona, subject to change tomorrow.

That means that seven matches into the season, what were considered Barcelona’s two main rivals for the title are doing uncharacteristically poorly.

On the other hand, Sevilla are going strong. They finished Malaga off 2-0 with goals from Ever Banega from the spot and Luis Muriel.
