The Spanish LaLiga returns again this week and the wait has been too long already. We have some intriguing matchups and we are here to tell you what you need to know for this upcoming game week.
Friday 26 August
39/20 Girona | Draw 21/10 | Celta Vigo 31/20 (20:00)
We kick the gameweek off with a tie between Girona and Celta Vigo. Girona picked up their first win of the season with a 3-1 home victory over Getafe on Monday night.
Celta, on the other hand, were thumped 4-1 by a rampant Real Madrid on home soil. The newly-promoted side won the last two meetings at their Montilivi stadium and will look to continue that trend. Get on the home win.
15/20 Real Betis | Draw 11/4 | Osasuna 36/10 (22:00)
Real Betis and Osasuna will see their 100% LaLiga records go on the line when they go head to head at the Benito Villamarin Stadium on Friday evening. Both sides have enjoyed victories in each of their two opening games, but Betis are strong favourites to pick up all three points.
Manuel Pellegrini’s men have won five and drawn one of their six meetings with the Pamplona-based side since they earned promotion in 2019/2020. The home win is the way to go.
Saturday 27 August
34/10 Elche | Draw 49/20 | Real Sociedad 9/10 (17:30)
After a miserable 4-1 home defeat to Barcelona last weekend, Real Sociedad will be desperate to get a win against Elche.
Imanol Alguacil’s side will be confident of claiming all three points having won all four of their meetings with the Andalusian club since they earned promotion in 2020/2021. Back the away win.
11/10 Rayo Vallecano | Draw 9/4 | Mallorca 26/10 (19:30)
Rayo Vallecano picked up their first win of the season with a 2-0 victory at Espanyol last week. The Madrid-based outfit will look to continue their winning ways when they host Mallorca who remain winless in the campaign.
Rayo won this fixture 3-1 last season and they’ll fancy taking all three points. The home win is tipped.
5/2 Almeria | Draw 9/4 | Sevilla 12/10 (22:00)
Almeria and Sevilla will both be searching for their first victories when they face off at the Juegos Mediterraneos Stadium on Saturday.
Both sides have taken a point from their opening two league games and will be desperate to pick up their first three points of the campaign. These two sides last met in the 2020/21 Copa del Rey which Sevilla won 1-0 at the Juegos Mediterraneos, claiming their sixth straight win over Almeria. 12/10 about the away win is generous pricing by Hollywoodbets. Get on.
Sunday 28 August
49/20 Getafe | Draw 22/10 | Villarreal 5/4 (17:30)
Villarreal will be looking to continue their perfect start to the season and maintain their place at the top of the table when they visit the league’s bottom side Getafe. Unai Emery’s men have an excellent recent record against the Azulones, with six straight wins, and will enter this match full of confidence. The away win is the way to go.
1/5 Barcelona | Draw 6/1 | Valladolid 13/1 (19:30)
On the back of a thumping 4-1 win over Real Sociedad, Barcelona will be eyeing a successive victory when they host newly-promoted Valladolid on Sunday.
The team owned by Brazil legend Ronaldo are yet to register a win on their return to the top flight, and a trip to the Camp Nou will only end in further disappointment. Back Barca on the Half-Time Full-Time Double at 11/20.
48/10 Espanyol | Draw 36/10 | Real Madrid 5/10 (22:00)
Real Madrid are looking to make it three wins from three when they visit Espanyol at the RCDE Stadium on Sunday. Carlo Ancelotti’s side head into this game with confidence sky high having recorded a 4-0 victory over the Catalan side in their most recent meeting at the Bernabeu in April this year.
Diego Martinez’s side remain winless after two games, and the Spanish and European champions will be expecting a comfortably win. Back the away win.
Monday 29 August
28/10 Cadiz | Draw 22/10 | Athletic Bilbao 21/20 (20:00)
Athletic Bilbao hope to pick up their second win of the campaign against Cadiz who have lost their opening two games.
Ernesto Valverde’s side won this fixture 3-2 last season and will be confident of claiming all three points against the Andalusian club who are still without a point or a goal. Back the away win.
33/10 Valencia | Draw 49/20 | Atletico Madrid 9/10 (22:00)
We close out the gameweek with a tie between Valencia and Atletico Madrid. Both sides are sitting on three points, and will aim to bounce back from defeats last weekend.
Gennaro Gattuso’s side haven’t beaten Atleti since 2014, with Los Che losing nine and drawing six since then. With the head‑to‑head results favouring Diego Simeone’s men, back the away win.
