Last season Atlético Madrid finished a season from the third position of the points table but this season so far Atlético Madrid could not reach the third position of the points table. Atlético Madrid is currently at the fourth position of the points table with 7 points. Real Madrid has had a great start to this season as so far Real Madrid have played four matches winning four out of four matches to top the points table with 12 points. While Real Madrid have started the season right, Barcelona have not started the season right so far. Barcelona must come back and win the next matches. Barcelona will not be able to close the points gap with Girona and Real Madrid if they fail to win the next matches.
I think it's too early to talk about where they might be now, because the league has just started and there's still a long way to go. Yes now maybe Atletico Madrid are in 4th place, but they still have 1 more match, precisely meeting Sevilla which should have been done in week 4 ago. Assuming that they win that game, then they will have the same points as Barcelona and Girona.
I don't think there will be too much change for positions 1, 2 and 3, which will put Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, regardless of which team will occupy where.
I think the top three teams of the league will be the same, but the rankings may change among themselves. I think Atletico is a little better this year compared to last year. If they can recover a little better, they can make good use of their point losses. Real Madrid is already dealing with injuries. Barcelona is trying to become a team. If Atlético is successful this year, a boring routine will be over.
