FRIDAY
GETAFE v VALENCIA – Click here to bet
Getafe are currently 10th on the log. They saw an 8 match unbeaten streak ended last time out when they lost 2-0 away to Las Palmas. 6 of those 8 matches had ended in draws. They have yet to lose a match at home this season winning 4 and drawing 3 and only 2 of those 7 matches have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers.
Valencia are level on points with Getafe, but ahead of them on goal difference and sit 9th on the log. They have only taken 1 point from the last 9 they have played for and they went down 2-1 away to Girona in their last start. Valencia played 8 away matches winning just 1. Their away games have been high scoring averaging 3.3 goals each with 75% of their games reaching the 3 goal mark.
Getafe won this fixture 1-0 last season. Getafe have a strong home record against Valencia winning 3 and drawing 1 of their last 4 and I am going to back them to get the 3 points here.
Suggested Bet: Getafe win at 17/10

SATURDAY
MALLORCA v SEVILLA – Click here to bet
Mallorca are currently 17th on the log and without a win in their last 10 matches. They drew 0-0 at home to Alaves last time out and they have yet to win in front of their own fans. Mallorca home games just average 1.3 goals each and only 1 of their 7 matches has reached the 3 goal mark.
Sevilla are currently 15th on the log and they have only won 1 of their last 10 matches and they haven’t won in their last 8 games. 6 of those 8 matches have finished in draws including last time out a 1-1 draw at home to Villarreal. Sevilla have yet to win on the road this season.
Both teams have found the back of the net in Sevilla’s last 7 League games and I am going to back that trend to continue.
Suggested Bet: Both teams to score, YES, at 21/20
SUNDAY
BARCELONA v GIRONA – Click here to bet
Barcelona are currently 3rd on the log and they have taken 10 points from the last 12 they have played for. They beat Atlético Madrid 1-0 last time out, a game where they started 19/20 favourites and they have only lost 1 game at home this season.
Girona have been the surprise packages of LaLiga and they sit 4 points above Barcelona in 2nd place having dropped just 2 points in their last 7 matches. They beat Valencia 2-1 at home last time out and have yet to lose on the road in 6 wins and 1 draw in 7 matches.
This fixture finished goalless last season with Barcelona winning the reverse fixture 1-0 at Girona.
Barcelona are 8/15 for the win with Girona priced at 9/2 and the draw 15/4.
Given how tight the 2 head-to-head matches were last season I think the value here lies in under 2.5 goals.
Suggested Bet: Under 2.5 goals at 13/8
