With two games for each team this week, there seems to be a new trend in La Liga, as neither of its two giants were able to claim three points in this week's clashes.
Both Barcelona and Real Madrid failed to win during the weekend, with Sevilla and Atlético making the title race more entertaining that in recent years. In fact, up to five teams could become La Liga leaders next week if Los Blaugranas and Los Merengues fail to win their next game in the competition.
Here's a look at the standings after seven games.

But Barcelona is not the only team struggling in La Liga. Real Madrid's games haven't exactly been what you would call "exciting". Why? Have a look at these numbers.

Pichichi race
It had been a while since a Portuguese player dominated the race to become La Liga's top scorer. André Silva is revamping his career with Sevilla, hitting record numbers for a recent arrival to the Spanish top flight.
