La Liga Quiz: what it is
Spanish football is often described as a two-horse race, yet every season has eighteen other clubs with their own stories: promoted sides from the Segunda, mid-table survivors, and teams that dropped into the bottom five. This Footbillion quiz asks you to remember them.
Prompts are built season by season from match results. You may be asked for any club in a season, a club that finished in the top half, a club in the bottom five or a club that played in every season in the data.
Footbillion is a free daily football quiz where every correct name has a price. This page is Footbillion Unlimited filtered to one topic: the La Liga set currently holds 42 prompts in the Footbillion bank, each with its full list of valid answers. Play as many rounds as you like; your daily Footbillion streak is not affected.
How the La Liga quiz works
Choose the Spanish topic and press play for seven Footbillion prompts. Type a club and pick it from the list. Accents are optional, so Alaves, Cadiz and Leganes are fine, and common short names such as Atleti, Betis and Depor work. Three tries and a 45-second clock apply.
Final tables are calculated from results, so the order may differ slightly from official tables that use head-to-head tie-breakers.
Tips for rare La Liga answers
- Think about yo-yo clubs. Teams that bounce between divisions have few top-flight seasons and high values.
- The Basque and Canary sides. Some regional clubs spend long spells in the second tier, which makes them valuable when they do appear.
- Top half surprises. A modest club finishing eighth is worth far more than a giant finishing second.
More than a two-club league
Rarity scoring is a nice way to explore the depth of Spanish football. The most valuable answers are the clubs that only briefly reached the top. Fans of English football can try the Premier League quiz, and fans of European nights the Champions League quiz.
