On 24 June 2021, the Spanish Council of Ministers resolved that spectators could return to stadiums at full capacity by means of a modification of the royal decree regulating the 'new normality', in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3]
Atlético Madrid were the defending champions, having won their eleventh title the previous season. Espanyol, Mallorca and Rayo Vallecano join as the promoted clubs from the 2020–21 Segunda División. They replace Huesca, Valladolid and Eibar, which were relegated to Segunda the previous season.
Real Madrid secured a record 35th title with four matches to go on 30 April, following a 4–0 victory over Espanyol.[4]
This is the first La Liga season since 2003–04 that does not feature the league all-time top goalscorer Lionel Messi, or Sergio Ramos.
