Real Betis will be bidding to bounce back from successive La Liga defeats when they travel to Almeria on Saturday afternoon.
Manuel Pellegrini's side will enter the contest off the back of a 4-3 home loss to Celta Vigo, while Almeria suffered a 2-0 defeat to Rayo Vallecano in their last game in Spain's top flight.
We say: Almeria 1-1 Real Betis
Real Betis will be hoping to bounce back in this match, and they have won four times on their travels in the league this season. Almeria's home record this term has been excellent, though, so we are finding it difficult to back an away victory, instead settling on a low-scoring draw at Power Horse Stadium.

Sevilla will be bidding to bounce back from their three-goal defeat at Barcelona when they welcome Mallorca to Estadio Ramon in La Liga on Saturday night.
Jorge Sampaoli's side are currently 16th in the table, two points clear of the relegation zone, while Mallorca occupy 10th, boasting 28 points from their opening 20 matches of the campaign.
We say: Sevilla 1-1 Mallorca
Sevilla have won their last three games in front of their own supporters, but Mallorca were excellent against Real Madrid last time out and will therefore enter this match full of confidence. It would not be at all surprising to see a home win, but we just have a feeling that Mallorca could navigate their way to a point.

Valencia will be looking to end a run of four straight defeats when they welcome Athletic Bilbao to Mestalla in La Liga on Saturday night.
Los Che's recent struggles have seen them drop into 17th position in the table, only one point outside of the relegation zone, while Athletic are currently eighth, two points behind sixth-placed Villarreal.
We say: Valencia 2-2 Athletic Bilbao
This has all of the makings of an open and entertaining match this weekend. Four of the last five La Liga matches between these two sides have finished level, including a 2-2 at Mestalla in December 2020, and we are backing the same scoreline to occur on Saturday night.
