Spain's Primera Liga is considered to be one of the best professional football leagues on the planet, with some of the top teams attracting support from fans around the globe. Betting on the Primera Liga is simple if you are not a Spanish resident when you use an online bookmaking site to place your bets.

There are 20 teams in the Primera Liga each year, with the bottom three relegated to the second division. The two giants of the Primera Liga are Barcelona and Real Madrid who have fought for supremacy almost unchallenged since the 50s. Barcelona has taken home the title 19 times, whilst their rivals in Madrid are currently ahead of them with 31 title victories. Barcelona were able to take back the title in the 2008-09 season and they are currently leading the league which could suggest another upset for their rivals. As such betting on this season's winners could be tricky and the odds are always changing if you are trying to pick the outright winner in these relatively early stages. It is the third most attended professional football league in the world and the fast pace of the gameplay accounts for its popularity outside its country of origin.

You can bet on individual matches taking place each week in the Primera Liga, with various odds available depending on the relative skill and power of the combative teams. You can even use live in-play betting and take advantage of great odds during a match if you wish and some streaming services will let you watch online if you cannot watch matches from the Primera Liga in your home country.
