It’s on! The new La Liga season has started, and you probably have a lot of questions left unanswered. You’re looking to win your La Liga fantasy football contests, too, aren’t you?
I’m here to help. FootballCoin has set up a contest that includes the matches between the 25th and 27th of August, 2026. I’ve been writing fantasy football advice columns for a decade, and these are the players that I think you need.
My GW1-2 La Liga Squad Reveal
These are the games from the second part of GW1 and also the ones that start GW2. Real Madrid and FC Barcelona are included in this one. I want to suggest a team that mixes experience and youth, stars and budget picks.
I’m playing in a 4-4-2 formation.
| Position | Player Name | Club | Card Tier | Why Included for GW1 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GK | Andrei Radu | Celta de Vigo | 2★ – Free w/ lease | Clean sheet potential vs Osasuna |
| DEF 1 | Dean Huijsen | Real Madrid | 3★ | Good, confident start to the season for Real Madrid |
| DEF 2 | Rodrigo Riquelme | Betis | 2★ – Free w/ lease | Underrated player in strong form |
| DEF 3 | Jesus Vasquez | Valencia | 2★ – Free w/ lease | Good full-back with strong attacking instincts |
| DEF 4 | Xavi Espart | Barcelona | 1★ – Free | This season can prove to be a major upgrade for him |
| MID 1 | Miguel Roman | Celta de Vigo | 2★ – Free w/ lease | In-form midfielder who can perform well against Osasuna |
| MID 2 | Oihan Sancet | Athletic Bilbao | 2★ – Free w/ lease | Can you believe he’s still a free card? Get him! |
| MID 3 | Facundo Bernal | Betis | 1★ – Free | Youngster with a lot of potential |
| MID 4 | Jude Bellingham | Real Madrid | 5★ | One of the top midfielders in the world at the moment |
| FW 1 | Ante Budimir | Internazionale | 2★ – Free w/ lease | Consistent striker who is a real bargain pick |
| FW 2 | Raphinha | Baarcelona | 5★ | Brazilian striker who put in a dominating performance in GW1 |
| AM | Jordi Alba | Retired AM | 5★ | A 5* Assistant Manager is a must-have |
3 Must-Have “Sleeper Picks” for GW1-2
- Alvaro Valles (Proven Shotstopper): Bargain pick with potential to maintain a clean sheet
- Abel Bretones (Creative Wing-Back):Bretones is, technically, a wide defender, but his attacking potential makes him a strong pick
- Inigo Arguibide (Attacking Defender): Young attacking player who is always capable of a strong tackle when needed

PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
