How does the tiebreaker work in LaLiga Santander?

In the event of a tie on points between two teams, the one with the greater goal difference for and against in the clashes between the two will finish ahead. That is, if each team wins a game, the goal average will be won by the one with the best goal difference. In the event that it remains equal, the difference in goals for and against in the championship matches will be taken into account.

If the tie is between three or more teams, the team that has scored the most points in direct confrontations will finish in the superior position. For example, if Getafe, Cádiz and Granada tie, the points added by Getafe against the two rivals will be counted and the same with Cádiz and the same with Granada. The one who adds the most, prevails. If equality still persists, the goal difference in the matches played between them will be taken into account. And if the tie continues, the overall goal difference in the championship.

As an example, the tie between Getafe, Cádiz and Granada.

  • Getafe adds eight points between the four clashes.
  • Cádiz adds three points between the four clashes.
  • Granada also adds three points between the four clashes.

That is, in the event of a triple tie, it is Getafe who benefits. But who is ahead between Cádiz and Granada? To do this, you have to look at the goals for and against each of the teams involved in that triple tie in their direct confrontations.

  • Getafe is already ahead on points, so their goal balance would not be looked at, although it is easily the best of the three.
  • Cádiz accumulates two goals for and six against, for a total of -4.
  • Granada accumulates four in favor and six against, for a total of -2. That is, it would be above and the final outcome of this tiebreaker would be: Getafe, Granada and Cádiz.
