Most-used starting XI
La Liga 2025/26 · 38 matches · most common formation 4-4-2 (37 of 38)
The eleven players with the most 2025/26 league starts, each shown in the line he most often started in, with his season start count. This is a record of last season, not a predicted lineup: team sheets come from the openfootball public-domain archive and cover the 2025/26 season in full. Rows follow the source team sheets, so a player used across several roles appears in his most common one.

The posted total is the median of the books quoting that match, taken at each book's last recorded price before kickoff. Our archive is a daily snapshot grid rather than a tick feed, so it is not a closing line and is not published as one. "On the number" counts matches that finished level with a whole-number total, three goals with the total posted at 3 for instance, and those matches stay in the denominator of the rate. The home and away rows carry the total they were measured against, because that number is not always the same at both ends and a rate read without it says less than it appears to.

Each match is placed by the median price across the books quoting it, converted to implied probability first, at each book's last recorded price before kickoff. Villarreal is the shorter price when its implied probability is more than 5 points above the opponent's. Implied probabilities include the bookmaker margin, so they sum to more than 100 across the three results. This is a record of past matches and their prices, not a forecast of the next one.

Where these numbers come from
Results, tables, head-to-head and betting stats. Our own match archive of La Liga and La Liga finals through 2025/26, derived from final scores. Every block names its competition and window.
Posted totals, handicaps and prices. Our own odds archive of 2020/21 to 2025/26, held as book-by-book snapshots. Each match takes the median across the books quoting it at their last recorded price before kickoff. The archive is a daily snapshot grid, so no number on this page is a closing line.
2026/27 results and fixtures. The openfootball public-domain fixture and results file (CC0 1.0), read 2026-08-27. Results shown are final scores of completed matches only.
Starting XI. openfootball 2025/26 team sheets (CC0 1.0); the construction is stated under the graphic.
Posted handicaps. Our odds archive holds no posted handicap for La Liga or Segunda División matches in this window, measured at zero rows in every season, so this page carries no handicap block rather than a guessed one.
Information, not betting advice. This page reports what happened: results, goal counts and team-sheet history from stated sources over stated windows. The betting stats are counts of past outcomes. It contains no picks, no projections and no recommendations.
