LaLiga fixtures: Madrid travel to Deportivo on opening weekend as Barcelona host Betis
Champions Real Madrid face Deportivo on the first weekend of LaLiga, when Real Betis visit Camp Nou to take on Ernesto Valverde's Barcelona.
Real Madrid will begin their LaLiga title defence at Deportivo La Coruna, with Barcelona opening up the 2017-18 campaign against Real Betis at Camp Nou.
The Clasico rivals do not meet until the final round of fixtures before the mid-season break on December 20, when recently installed boss Ernesto Valverde and his side are slated to appear at the Santiago Bernabeu.
A mouthwatering return at Camp Nou could double up as a title-decider on the weekend of May 6 as it is the third game from the end of the season.
Barca conclude by hosting Real Sociedad, while Zinedine Zidane's European champions face a potentially tricky final-day trip to Villarreal.
