Real Madrid According to the Euro Club Index

Publicly, Real Madrid are not giving up on La Liga, but the reality is that not even statistics can help 'Los Blancos' now. With 13 games to play, the Euro Club Index only gives Real a 2.5% chance of winning the league, whilst Barcelona are the big favourites with a massive 95.9%.

"The ECI index", says Alfredo Gatius, a data analysis expert, "shows a team's relative potential to win titles or specific games and is calculated through statistical methods, taking into consideration the results of the games played by the team in La Liga, the cup, the Champions League, the Europa League... both historically and in recent seasons."

Despite the fact that Real Madrid's chances of winning La Liga are minimal, the capital club is the second favourite to win the Champions League: 27% versus 35% for Barça.
