FC Barcelona and Real Madrid are the big favorites for the Primera Liga title as Spain prepares for the new football season. The "big two" look to be far more powerful that the remaining 18 sides in the Primera Liga and baring a major surprise, the league title should end up at either the Camp Nou or Santiago Bernabeu Stadium come next May.
Between them Barcelona and Real Madrid have spend twice as much money as the other 18 clubs in the Spanish top flight with Real Madrid spending four times more than Barcelona.
Barcelona's captain Carles Puyol raises the trophy after the team defeated Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish Super Cup final second leg soccer match at Nou Camp stadium in Barcelona August 23, 2009
Nevertheless, it is Barcelona that goes into the new season as the reigning Primera Liga, Kings Cup and Champions League holder. The team coached by Pep Guardiola was the best team in the world last season and outplayed nearly all of its rivals. Partly because of that Barca has not carried out much business in the summer transfer market. Left back Maxwell and forward Zlatan Ibrahimovich have arrived at the club with Samuel Eto'o leaving for Inter Milan.
It remains to be seen whether or not Barcelona will miss Eto'o's aggression on the pitch, but Ibrahimovich's height will bring other options to the Barcelona attack.
The main problem for the Catalan side is that their success has brought a full fixture calendar with the European Super cup and the World club Championship added to an already busy schedule.
