Which teams are consistently finding the back of the net in La Liga
At the time of writing, Barcelona are the only team to have a 100% record La Liga this season, winning all of their five games.
They are also one of the four teams to score in all their games, along with Real Madrid, Villarreal and Celta Vigo.
Some of these teams have been on a scoring run for quite awhile, returning to last season’s end.
The below visualisation shows which teams have consistently found the back of the net and which teams are on the opposite end of that spectrum.
Villarreal, fourth in the table with 11 points — tied with Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid, are on the longest scoring streak, finding the back of the net in each of their last 20 games.
Villarreal have already scored 11 goals this season.
Barcelona, who are top of the table, are next, scoring in their last 16 games. They have scored 17 this season.
Celta Vigo have scored the second-most goals (13) and are on an eight-game scoring run.
Real Madrid are on a five-game scoring streak, having failed to score in the final game of last season; Madrid had found the back of the net in 25 straight games before that.
Valencia, Real Sociedad, and Leganes, who have all struggled for goals this season, did not score in their last game at the time of writing and are rock bottom in the visual above.
Getafe and Las Palmas, the only teams yet to win, scored in their most recent game but did not find the back of the net in the game before that.
Getafe, however, have been impressive defensively, conceding only four goals so far.
Alavés, fifth in the table and one of the surprise packages so far, are on a three-game scoring streak with Girona, Mallorca and Vallecano.
Atlético Madrid have the defensive record, but not so much on the other side, with Simeone’s men on a two-game scoring streak along with Athletic Club, Osasuna, and Real Betis.
