Real Madrid Match Historic Start to La Liga Season

Real Madrid have kicked off the 2025/26 La Liga season in perfect fashion, securing six consecutive victories — a feat they've now achieved for the sixth time in their storied history.

This blistering start mirrors previous campaigns in 1958/59, 1961/62, 1968/69, 1987/88, and most recently in 2022/23. But while such dominance early on is impressive, it hasn’t always translated into lifting the trophy come May.

Historically, Real Madrid went on to win the title in just three of the five previous instances. Notably, on two occasions — in 1959 and again in 2023 — the championship slipped away, with fierce rivals Barcelona ultimately emerging as winners.
