Yes. And the most surprising thing is Girona that is joining for the race of the title. It is crazy that a small team like Girona can be in the top of La Liga standings. They even could defeated Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. I don't know what's happening with the teams in La Liga, but it is very different from the last season.

They are actually my favorites to win it all at this point lol, and I'd be so happy to see that happen

I think Girona should be call small club last season but this season they are regarded as strong team in Laliga this season, but they really take that advantage of that small club to defeat big club because they underestimated them that why they gain the victory, they have the same record with real Madrid but goals different, the two things are the only teams in Laliga this season to lose a match, the have a lot of chances to take the lead because they are not distracted with any league because they are only playing Laliga compare to Real Madrid that are occupied with different composition.

Small club or big club, that designation doesn't really depend on the current season and how they are temporarily playing.

Real Madrid is a big club, a huge club and I have a hard time saying that Girona now counts as a big club because after 19 games they are in the second position in La Liga. I think it takes more than that. It takes a lot of things to be considered a big club, but first and foremost titles.
However, it is great that it is not the typical clubs playing for the title at least for the moment. This could change quickly though when Girona has their first losing streak (if they will have one at all, I don't know). Perhaps they keep going like that.

The way Girona played, I am actually surprised that Barcelona is still right under them. Well, that probably doesn't make sense because the other teams didn't play well, teams like Atletico Madrid should have done a lot better compared to what they have done in the past few matches. Barcelona is in the 3rd position but Barca is still 7 points behind and that is something to worry for Barca. By the way, Girona have the same amount of points as Real Madrid. So there is still a chance for them to actually be at the top of the table ahead of Real Madrid. That's how good they are at this season. For a team that got promoted last season, this is a great improvement.
