After 15 rounds of play in Group A of the Premier World League, the standings are starting to take serious shape — with playoff contenders rising and relegation candidates slipping further. Here's a breakdown of how the table looks after the latest round:

---

🔝 Top of the Table (1st–6th)

1. Santa Fe (COL) – 36 pts
   Santa Fe continues to dominate Group A, sitting at the top with 11 wins and a +27 goal difference. Their balance of strong home and away form (8 home wins, 7 away) shows they're serious title contenders.

2. Valencia (SPA) – 34 pts
   Just two points off the top, Valencia is keeping the pressure on. Their recent form is solid, and they're unbeaten in their last 5 (4 wins, 1 draw).

3. Cienciano (PER) – 33 pts
   Cienciano holds third with a solid goal difference (+14) and consistent results. They're grinding out wins and staying within striking distance.

4. Sporting Cristal (PER) – 31 pts
   Up 4 spots, Cristal is surging. With 10 wins and a potent attack (44 goals), they’re the top scorers in the group and rising quickly.

5. Hong Kong FC (HK) – 29 pts
   Down one spot, they remain firmly in contention but need to tighten up defensively (32 goals conceded).

6. Barcelona (SPA) – 27 pts
   Still hanging in the top 6, but recent form has been rocky. Their away record (20 goals scored) is helping keep them afloat.

⬆️ Big Movers & Mid-Table Storylines (7th–16th)

• Universitario (PER) and Sport Boys (PER) are both pushing for a top 6 finish, with 26 and 25 points respectively. Universitario is unbeaten in their last 5, a sign they may surge next.

• Manchester United (UK) are stuck in 10th, struggling to gain momentum despite solid defense.

• Atletico Grau (PER) jumped 3 places into 11th, showing signs of life.

• Chelsea (UK) dropped 5 spots to 14th — a major fall from grace. With only 6 wins in 15 games, their inconsistency is dragging them down.

• Feyenoord (NEATH) remains mid-table but with a poor goal difference (-3), their defense needs shoring up.
