La Liga Predictions

Celta Vigo vs Atletico Madrid

Celta Vigo are one of two winless teams left in La Liga and sit one point off the drop zone thanks to goal difference, although they have scored less than a goal a game. Atletico are in fifth spot with just one loss in seven and an average of two goals per game. This could end badly for the home side.

Espanyol vs Betis

Together on 12 points on the table, both sides have hit double figures of goals already, so we should be in for a real net-rippler. Betis have won four-to-one of the last five matches between the sides, so away from home this could end all square, especially when considering that Espanyol have won just one of their last 8 league games against Betis and haven’t lost at home in their last four league matches.

Sevilla vs Barcelona

Barca top La Liga after six wins and a draw in their seven matches. Sevilla have lost seven La Liga matches in a row against Barcelona (the latest by 4-1)… but they have scored in every league match this season. Barca lead the La Liga goals tally with a staggering 21 in seven matches, so I see them winning by two clear goals, with Sevilla to score.

Real Sociedad vs Rayo Vallecano

Real Sociedad are 17th in La Liga, with four losses and one win in their last five matches. Rayo Vallecano are just two places higher, with three losses and two draws. They have drawn three of their last five matches, so another draw could be on the cards here.

Verdict

La Liga

Goals aplenty as Barca bash Sevilla and Atletico clean Celta Vigo’s clock
