Promotion and relegation (pre-season)

A total of twenty teams contest the league, including seventeen sides from the 2023–24 season and three promoted from the 2023–24 Segunda División. This includes the two top teams from the Segunda División, and the winners of the promotion play-offs.

Teams relegated to Segunda División

The first team to be relegated from La Liga were Almería, after a 1–3 loss to Getafe on 27 April 2024, ending their two-year stay in top tier. The second team to be relegated was Granada, following Mallorca’s 1–0 win against Las Palmas, suffering immediate relegation. The third and final team relegated to Segunda was Cádiz, after a 0–0 draw against Las Palmas on 19 May 2024, ending their four-year stay in the top tier.

Teams promoted from Segunda División

On 26 May 2024, Valladolid became the first side to mathematically be automatically promoted, assured of a return to the top flight following a 3–2 win against Villarreal B, thus returning after a single season absence.[5] The second and final team to earn automatic promotion was Leganés, following a 2–0 win against Elche on 2 June 2024, thus returning after a four-season absence and also being promoted to the top flight for the second time in their history.[6] The third and final team to be promoted was Espanyol, following their win against Oviedo in the promotion play-off final, returning to the top flight after only a single season.[7][8]
