Yes it is, the quality of opposition is much higher than in France.
La Liga is still easier to score because even small clubs still try to play football. Atletico might be defensive and Villarreal in recent years has been a very defensive side but for the most part, the minnows in La Liga play at the top dogs a lot more than in the PL or Serie A which inevitably makes it easier to score. Even if they have higher quality overall, its more on the attacking side than defensive.
Last year Leicester won scoring 68 goals. Barca and RM scored 112 and 110.
Year before that, Chelsea won scoring 73 with City scoring 83. Barca was on 110 and RM on 118.
No league is easier to score in for the two top teams because of the footballing culture than modern La Liga.
Switch those Barca and RM into Serie A and they would still dominate but not score as many goals.
