Villarreal are fifth on 60, Betis sixth on 60 and Sevilla seventh on 55, three above Getafe and with a better head-to-head record than the Madrid side.
It has also highlighted divisions among Iran's political elite.
Mr Rouhani has said Iran would stay committed to the deal, which Britain, China, France, Germany and Russian Federation also signed, provided those powers could ensure Iran was protected from sanctions against key sectors of its economy such as oil.
"It is necessary for the president to honestly and openly apologise to the people over the damages caused by the nuclear accord", Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati, a top conservative, said in a statement carried by state media.
With the deal on shaky ground in the face of fierce opposition from hardliners at home, some analysts say Mr Rouhani faces the prospect of serving out his second term as a lame duck leader.
