#3 Real Madrid
Real Madrid endured a disappointing outing across all competitions last season. Los Blancos struggled to impress under the management of both Julen Lopetegui and Santiago Solari, and even Zinedine Zidane's return couldn't save them from ending the campaign on an embarrassing note.
The Spanish giants responded by doing some decent business in the transfer market this summer. They spent over €300 million to lure the likes of Eden Hazard, Eder Militao, Rodrygo, Ferland Mendy and Takefusa Kubo to the Santiago Bernabeu. While their investment is yet to produce desired results in the Champions League, their situation in the LaLiga at the moment offers a bit of relief.
Los Blancos currently sit at the top of the league table with 18 points from 8 games so far this season. Their record of 5 victories and 3 draws from 8 matches ranks them among the very few sides who are yet to taste defeat across Europe's top five leagues at the moment.
