Osasuna v Real Madrid - Double Chance - away win or draw

Espanyol v A.Bilbao - Double Chance - away win or draw
Every now and then we get a golden spell in football, and it has now been a while since since Athletic Bilbao’s happy followers watched their team get beaten in La Liga. E. Valverde Tejedor’s squad is now unbeaten in 14 games, and he'll be expecting that they can keep going against Espanyol at RCDE Stadium on Sunday afternoon. Top odds of 1.18 can be taken advantage of to back Athletic Bilbao the double chance market.
Valladolid v Sevilla - Win / Draw / Win - away win
It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's what's required of Real Valladolid boss Marco Mariotti on Sunday. His players face Sevilla having lost each of their last 4 La Liga games.
Mallorca v Las Palmas - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like tipping goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming fixture between Las Palmas and Mallorca might well be the one for you. Diego Simeone's side have lost 9 games this term in which both sides have got on the scoresheet. That's the highest number in La Liga.
Real Betis v R.Sociedad - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Real Betis and Real Sociedad have been involved in a number of cagey affairs in recent years. With each of their last 6 La Liga matches ending with under 2.5 goals, the attackers picked by Manuel Pellegrini and Imanol Alguacil may be going home disappointed on night.
Barcelona v R.Vallecano - Double Chance - away win or draw
Luckily for them, it has been quite some time since Rayo Vallecano’s happy followers watched their lads lose in La Liga. I. Pérez Soto’s boys are now unbeaten in 9 outings, and he will be telling them that they can keep that streak running against FC Barcelona at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys on Monday night. Best value odds of 4.33 can be taken advantage of to back Rayo Vallecano to either win or draw.
Celta v Osasuna - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Balaídos is the backdrop as Osasuna and Celta de Vigo go head-to-head on Friday night, in what could prove to be a tight affair. Vicente Moreno's side have the highest number of score draws of any club in the league - 8 in 23 games. An extension of that record is available at 4.75.
R.Vallecano v Villarreal - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at Campo de Fútbol de Vallecas may be fully expecting action at both ends on Saturday, and with good reason if Villarreal's past record is to be continued. Both teams have found the net in 18 of their 23 La Liga fixtures this season, the largest number in the competition.
Las Palmas v Barcelona - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you're not busy on Saturday night, then the clash between FC Barcelona and Las Palmas could be the one for you. H. Flick's team lead La Liga in most matches with more than 2 goals scored so far this season. 18 of their La Liga games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from Diego Simeone's men could ruin the spectacle.
A.Bilbao v Valladolid - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
Real Valladolid will be looking to avoid adding to the 10 times they have already been behind in at both halftime and fulltime this term when they play Athletic Bilbao on Sunday. Marco Mariotti's players already lead the rest of La Liga in that category, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss E. Valverde Tejedor will be licking his lips, however.
Real Madrid v Girona - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
Miguel Ángel Sánchez Muñoz won't be relishing facing Real Madrid in La Liga on Sunday. Carlo Ancelotti's side have been ahead at the break and gone on to win at final whistle more frequently than any other side in the La Liga this season - 10 times in total. That record suggests it could well be a difficult afternoon for Girona, and that backing Real Madrid in the HT FT market would be a great shout at odds of 1.83.
Getafe v Real Betis - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring fixtures aren't always tedious affairs, but fans of Getafe have had lots of chances to test that theory this term. 20 of their side's matches in La Liga have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will Manuel Pellegrini and his Real Betis side be able to inject goals into this encounter on Sunday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?
R.Sociedad v Leganes - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw
It might not be an honour they're particularly proud of, but Leganes currently lead all opposition in La Liga when it comes to matches drawn at both HT and FT this campaign, with their tally now at 6 in 23 matches. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency on the line against Real Sociedad at Anoeta on Sunday, in a match that could see yet another dead heat.
