Saturday's La Liga predictions including Atletico Madrid vs. Real Valladolid

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Saturday's La Liga action, including Atletico Madrid vs. Real Valladolid.


Espanyol vs. Levante (Saturday, 1.00pm)

Espanyol will be looking to continue their positive run of form in Spain's top flight when they welcome Levante to the RCDE Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The Catalan side have boosted their La Liga survival hopes by picking up four points from their last two matches, while Levante have collected two points from their last two fixtures.

We say: Espanyol 0-0 Levante


Levante have proved difficult to beat in their recent matches, while Espanyol have drawn four of their last six home league fixtures in Spain's top flight; we are finding it difficult to separate the two teams on Saturday afternoon and have therefore backed a goalless draw.

Athletic Bilbao will be looking to stretch their unbeaten run in La Liga to five matches when they welcome Real Betis to San Mames on Saturday afternoon.

The Basque outfit currently occupy 10th position in Spain's top flight, while Betis sit 13th, five points behind their opponents ahead of this weekend's contest in Bilbao.

We say: Athletic Bilbao 2-2 Real Betis


Both sides will feel confident of harming the other in the final third of the field, but there is not much between them in terms of quality. It should be an open and entertaining match at San Mames, and we are backing an entertaining 2-2 draw, which would not be the worst result for either team.

Getafe vs. Eibar (Saturday, 6.30pm)

Getafe will be looking to pick up their first La Liga victory since the return of the 2019-20 campaign when they welcome Eibar to the Spanish capital on Saturday night.

Jose Bordalas's side are currently sixth in Spain's top flight, just two points off the top four, while Eibar occupy 16th and are fighting to stay above the relegation zone.

We say: Getafe 2-0 Eibar


Getafe are certainly due a victory, and it is difficult to back against the top-four hopefuls this weekend. Eibar have a lot of talented players, particularly in forward positions, but they have struggled on the road this season. In truth, we are expecting an extremely routine home victory for Bordalas's side.

Atletico Madrid will be looking to build on Wednesday's impressive victory over Osasuna when they continue their La Liga season at home to Real Valladolid on Saturday night.

Diego Simeone's side are currently locked in a battle for a top-four spot, while Valladolid occupy 14th position in the table, eight points clear of the relegation zone in Spain's top flight.

We say: Atletico 2-0 Valladolid


Valladolid's away form has been fairly solid this season, picking up four wins and four draws from their 15 matches. Atletico will be full of confidence after Wednesday's win over Osasuna, though, and we expect the home side to put another three points on the board in routine fashion.
