SATURDAY
Barcelona v Getafe – Click here to bet
Barcelona are currently sitting 3rd on the log and they have taken 10 points from the last 12 they have played for. They beat Celta de Vigo 2-1 on the road in their last start and their last home game was a 3-3 draw with Granada. In midweek they played to a 1-1 draw at Napoli in the Champions League.
Getafe are currently 10th on the table and they are undefeated in their last 3 starts. They drew 1-1 away with Villarreal last time out and both teams have found the back of the net in the last 3 matches they have played in.
The sides played out to a goalless draw at Getafe earlier in the season and there has only been 1 goal scored in the last 4 meetings between the sides so the 13/10 on under 2.5 goals is decent value.
Suggested Bet: Under 2.5 goals at 13/10
Almeria v Atlético Madrid – Click here to bet
Almeria are currently bottom of the log with just 8 points from their 25 matches. They are coming off back-to-back draws away at Granada and at home to Athletic Bilbao, but they have failed to win any of their last 10 matches.
Atlético Madrid are 4th on the table with 3 wins, a draw and a loss in their last 5 games. Last time out they hammered Las Palmas 5-0 at home. Their last away game was a 1-0 defeat to Sevilla. They have only won 1 of their last 5 away matches.
Atlético Madrid won the reverse fixture 2-1 at home and this fixture finished 1-1 last season.
Although Atlético Madrid’s recent away form hasn’t been great, they should be too strong here.
Suggested Bet: Atlético Madrid win at 15/20

SUNDAY
Real Madrid v Sevilla – Click here to bet
Real Madrid are top of the table and undefeated in their last 10 matches. They did drop points last time out when 13/20 favourites away at Rayo Vallecano where the game finished 1-1. They have yet to taste defeat at home this season.
Sevilla are currently 15th on the log, but have put together a decent run which has seen them undefeated in their last 4 with 2 wins and 2 draws. They played out a goalless draw away to Valencia last time out and 3 of their last 4 games have delivered profits for under 2.5 goal backers.
These sides played to a 1-1 draw at Sevilla earlier this season. Real Madrid did the double last season winning this fixture 3-1 and winning away from home 2-1.
Real Madrid are 3/10 for the win here, but the bet that I fancy is both teams to score, a bet which would have arrived in the last 5 League meetings between the sides.
Suggested Bet: Both Teams to Score, YES, at 19/20
