Sporting Gijón holds La Liga’s fewest-points record in a three-points-for-a-win season, collecting only 13 points in 1997–98.
The campaign was disastrous from the start. Sporting went through its first 23 league matches without a victory and changed managers repeatedly. The club was relegated in March, becoming the first La Liga team to suffer relegation that early in the season. It eventually finished 20th and won only two matches.
The 13-point figure is sometimes confused with records from earlier Spanish seasons, when victories were worth two points rather than three. This question specifically uses the modern three-point system, introduced in La Liga for the 1995–96 season. Sporting’s total therefore remains the relevant record for that scoring era.
Sporting’s 1997–98 season was also its 22nd consecutive La Liga campaign. The club had avoided relegation the previous season, but its collapse in 1997–98 ended that long top-flight run.
