Girona vs Valencia Prediction: La Liga Match on 02.12.2023

La Liga Preview

Interesting action takes place in La Liga this weekend, as Athletic Bilbao look to put pressure on the sides in the top four places. Bilbao come into the weekend sitting fifth in the standings, but they are six points adrift of Barcelona, who currently sit fourth. But, the hosts will take confidence from their recent form in the competition. Bilbao have gone four matches without defeat in the Spanish competition, winning twice over that period. However, draws have been a slight hindrance to their progression, as they have been held on two occasions over the same period. But, positives would have been taken from their recent draw, as they held on to a point against the high-flying Girona. Bilbao’s goal in that tie was netted by Inaki Williams with 20 minutes remaining. [news_button][/news_button] There will be pressure on the visitors this weekend, as Rayo Vallecano look to bounce back to winning ways after failing to claim a victory in their previous four matches. However, over that period, they have picked up three draws, meaning that they have now played out a La Liga-high of seven ties in the competition this term. A return to winning ways on Sunday could see them end the weekend as high as eighth in the standings. Last weekend, Vallecano were excellent value for a point against the reigning champions, with Unai Lopez finding the net in a 1-1 draw with Barcelona.

Athletic Club vs Rayo Vallecano Head to Head

Bilbao are unbeaten in their previous three matches with Vallecano, landing two wins over that period. The latest match between the sides ended in a 0-0 draw in March. However, Vallecano has landed just one win in the previous nine meetings between the sides in La Liga.

Athletic Club vs Rayo Vallecano Prediction

Bilbao has an excellent record in this fixture, and they have shown some excellent performances across their recent outings in La Liga. Therefore, we will be siding with the home side picking up maximum points on Sunday. Make sure to bet on Athletic Club vs Rayo Vallecano with 22Bet!

It has been a reliable start to the season for Atletico Madrid, and they could continue their upward trajectory by bouncing back to winning ways on Sunday. Villarreal will be the visitors, as they also look to bounce back from a recent defeat.

Sevilla vs Real Betis Prediction: La Liga Match on 12.11.2023

La Liga Preview

Atletico Madrid appear to be a player in the race for the La Liga title this term, as they sit fourth in the standings at this early stage. They come into this fixture on Sunday in reliable form overall after winning eight of their opening eleven matches this term. However, there will be a need for the Spanish side to bounce back after recently being beaten in the competition.

Their four-match winning sequence in the league was ended in shocking fashion last Friday night, as they were edged out by Las Palmas away from home. Despite dominating for long periods, they were made to pay for defensive mistakes. However, they put that setback behind them to storm to a midweek 6-0 win in the Champions League over Celtic.

Things can only get better for Villarreal at this stage of the season, as they are currently languishing down in 13th place in the standings. They have recorded just three victories from their opening 12 matches this term, and even a win on Sunday wouldn’t be enough to lift them into the top half of the standings.

Villarreal have landed just a single victory from their previous five matches in the competition, and they have already allowed 21 goals, which is the most of any side outside of the relegation places. Their most recent defeat was suffered at home, as they lost 3-2 against Athletic Bilbao.

Atletico Madrid vs Villarreal Head to Head

The overall recent record matches up very evenly, as there have been nine wins for both Atletico and Villarreal, as well as nine drawn matches between these two sides. Villarreal comes into this match after going four without defeat against Atletico, but their only win over that period was a 2-0 success in this exact fixture last term.

Atletico Madrid vs Villarreal Prediction

Three of the previous four league meetings between these sides have ended in draws. However, it could be hard to overlook Atletico’s dominant attacking showing in midweek when making picks this weekend. Therefore, we will be siding with the home win.
