La Liga relegations 2022/23

  • Confirmed: Elche, Espanyol

The relegation battle in La Liga has been ridiculous this season. The entire bottom half were involved until very late in the campaign, with Elche being the first to go. They were later joined by Espanyol, but the third and final relegation spot still hasn't been confirmed.

13th Cadiz are only two points clear of 18th Valladolid, with every team in between at risk of dropping down to the Segunda Division. Head-to-head record comes into play before goal difference in Spain, which is good news for Cadiz but bad for Valencia and Celta Vigo.

The first confirmed champion in Europe's top five leagues came in Serie A, with Napoli winning their first Scudetto in 33 years. The historic night was plastered over the news and social media with scenes all around the world wowing fans.

There was never really a title race in Italy with Napoli quickly taking control while others massively struggled for consistency. They wrapped the league up with five games to spare.

  • Confirmed: Sampdoria, Cremonese

Italy settled on their champions pretty early but a historic side was also ditched sooner than expected. Sampdoria suffered their first relegation in 12 years and there is a very real chance that worse is to come for the club.

They have a parasitic owner who remains a majority shareholder and the club is expected to be declared bankrupt this summer. Further relegations, be it on the pitch or in the courts, are very possible.

They will be joined in Serie B by Cremonese and one of Spezia or Hellas Verona, the latter of whom currently occupy 18th due to their inferior head-to-head record.

There was a thrilling title race to enjoy over the course of the Bundesliga season, the likes of which the league has not seen for many years. It went down to the final day, with Borussia Dortmund leading Bayern Munich by two points.

Dortmund could only salvage a last-gasp draw at home to Mainz while Bayern won at Koln thanks to Jamal Musiala's dramatic strike, meaning the reigning champions retained their title on goal difference.

Ligue 1 is in the process of moving towards an 18-team league, like the Bundesliga, meaning four teams must go down. Luckily, some sides have been significantly worse than the rest and can have few complaints about their relegations.

Angers were the first side to be officially relegated and were soon joined by Ajaccio. Troyes' exit from Ligue 1 has also been confirmed. The last weekend in Ligue 1 will see either Auxerre or Nantes drop to Ligue 2.
