2009–10 La Liga

The 2009–10 La Liga (known as the Liga BBVA for sponsorship reasons) was the 79th season of La Liga since its establishment. Barcelona were the defending champions, having won their 19th La Liga title in the previous season. The campaign began on 29 August 2009, and concluded on 16 May 2010; all top-flight European leagues ended earlier than the previous season due to the impending 2010 FIFA World Cup. A total of 20 teams contested the league, 17 of which already contested in the 2008–09 season, and three of which were promoted from the Segunda División. In addition, a new match ball – the Nike T90 Ascente – served as the official ball for all matches.

On 16 May 2010, Barcelona secured a second consecutive La Liga title, and twentieth league title overall, following a 4–0 home victory against Valladolid. Barcelona's Lionel Messi won the La Liga award for Best Player for a second straight season.

Real Madrid's 96 points made them the runners-up with the highest points total in the history of Europe's top five leagues, until this was surpassed by Liverpool's 97 points in the 2018–19 Premier League.[4]

Rules for classification: 1) points; 2) head-to-head points; 3) head-to-head goal difference; 4) head-to-head goals scored; 5) goal difference; 6) number of goals scored.
(C) Champions; (R) Relegated
Notes:
  1. ^ a b Mallorca could not qualify for the 2010–11 UEFA Europa League due to being immersed in a creditor contest, a situation against UEFA criteria. Then, Villarreal was invited to replace this spot.
  2. ^ a b DEP 2–1 ATM; ATM 3–0 DEP
  3. ^ Since Atlético Madrid won the 2009–10 UEFA Europa League they earned a spot in the group stage of the 2010–11 UEFA Europa League.
  4. ^ a b VLD 3–3 TEN; TEN 0–0 VLD. As the aggregate score is a draw (3–3), the team with the higher goal difference between these two teams qualifies first and over the other one (Valladolid 18th, with −25; Tenerife 19th with −34)

Fair Play award

This award is given annually since 1999 to the team with the best fair play during the season. This ranking takes into account aspects[34] such as cards, suspension of matches, audience behaviour and other penalties. This section not only aims to determine the best fair play, but also serves to break the tie in teams that are tied in all the other rules: points, head-to-head, goal difference and goals scored.
