- Rayo Vallecano have conceded only 27 goals in 26 league games
- Sevilla have drawn nine matches in LaLiga
LaLiga is home to one of the fiercest title races in Europe this season with Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid all looking to take steps forward in Spain this weekend.
Celta Vigo vs Leganes (Saturday, 1:00pm)
Celta Vigo have accrued eight points from their last four matches, taking points off Real Betis, Atletico Madrid and Girona, and they can edge lowly Leganes, who have lost four of their last six contests.
Score prediction: Celta Vigo 2-1 Leganes
Alaves vs Villarreal (Saturday, 3:15pm)
Alaves are fighting for their lives in LaLiga and they can nick a point off Villarreal. Two of Villarreal's last five matches have finished 1-1 and that was the scoreline in Alaves' most recent game against Mallorca.
Score prediction: Alaves 1-1 Villarreal
Valencia vs Real Valladolid (Saturday, 5:30pm)
&w=707&quality=100)
These relegation-threatened sides have picked up just nine league wins between them this season and they may have to settle for a share of the spoils. Real Valladolid have scored just 17 goals in 26 matches and this could end goalless.
Score prediction: Valencia 0-0 Real Valladolid
Barcelona vs Osasuna (Saturday, 8:00pm)
Having battled hard in their 1-0 win over Benfica on Wednesday, Barcelona are unlikely to blow Osasuna away on Saturday but they can record a fifth win to nil in six games when they host the Pamplona outfit.
Score prediction: Barcelona 2-0 Osasuna
Getafe vs Atletico Madrid (Sunday, 1:00pm)
Atletico Madrid were edged by rivals Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday and, with one eye on the second leg of that tie, they might only just scrape past Getafe, who have lost their last two games by single-goal margins.
Score prediction: Getafe 0-1 Atletico Madrid
Real Madrid vs Rayo Vallecano (Sunday, 3.15pm)
Like city rivals Atletico, Real Madrid will be thinking about the second leg of their Champions League tie, so they might not outclass Rayo Vallecano. The visitors have conceded only 27 goals in 26 league games and can keep this tight.
Score prediction: Real Madrid 1-0 Rayo Vallecano
Athletic Bilbao vs Mallorca (Sunday, 5.30pm)
Three of Mallorca's last four LaLiga matches have finished 1-1 and that could also be the scoreline when they face a deflated Athletic Bilbao, who conceded late on to lose to Roma on Thursday in the Europa League.
Score prediction: Athletic Bilbao 1-1 Mallorca
Real Betis vs Las Palmas (Sunday, 5.30pm)
&w=707&quality=100)
Real Betis were held 2-2 by Vitoria Guimaraes in the Europa League on Thursday but they have won their last two LaLiga contests against Getafe and Real Madrid and they can ease past strugglers Las Palmas.
Score prediction: Real Betis 3-1 Las Palmas
Real Sociedad vs Sevilla (Sunday, 8:00pm)
Sevilla have racked up nine draws in LaLiga this campaign and their last two matches have finished 1-1. A repeat of that scoreline could be on the cards when they face Real Sociedad, who drew 1-1 with Manchester United on Thursday.
Score prediction: Real Sociedad 1-1 Sevilla
Espanyol vs Girona (Monday, 8:00pm)
Only five points separate Espanyol and Girona in LaLiga and a draw could be on the cards when they clash at the RCDE Stadium. Espanyol have been involved in three 1-1 draws since the start of the year.
Score prediction: Espanyol 1-1 Girona
