The first couple of months of the new season has brought about a fair share of surprises in Spain. Marca conducted an online survey, asking the Spanish fans about their predictions for the 20/21 season.

The results were rather surprising, and here is their choice, for every category.

Title Favourites

Atletico Madrid have been chosen as the favourites to win the La Liga title at the end of the season. Considering that the Rojiblancos are unbeaten so far into the season, they have a fair chance of lifting the League title.

In addition, they have two games in hand on current leaders Real Sociedad and could lead the division by 3 points if they win both their pending matches.

42% fans have voted for Atletico, whereas 24% have chosen Real Madrid. Barcelona have been voted by 21% and Sociedad are given 13% of the votes.

Best Player So Far

After a decent first season at the Spanish capital, Joao Felix is putting on some great performances for Atletico Madrid this season. He has five goals and two assists from 7 games and has been voted as the best player by 35% of the fans.

Mikel Oyarzabal, the current top scorer, is second with 23% of the votes whereas Ansu Fati is next with 17% of the votes.

Most Disappointing Player

Barcelona’s Antoine Griezmann has been cited as the most disappointing player so far by the people who took the poll. Eden Hazard has had an injury-plagued start to the season, and comes in second place with 31% of the votes, in comparison to Griezmann’s 33%.

Isco is third in the category with 21% of the votes.

Best Young Player

Barcelona’s Pedri takes the lion’s share of the votes for this category. Joao Felix and Ansu Fati did not contest this under-23 category as they were already in the best players choices.

Most Likely to be Relegated

Huesca, Valladolid and Celta are the fan’s choices for the teams most likely to take a drop this season. They have been voted by 30%, 22% and 13% of the fans respectively.
