With nine wins and a single draw from their first 10 games, Barca leads the pack by four points over Valencia. Atletico Madrid’s recent slip at home and Real Madrid’s surprising 2-1 loss to Girona – much to the delight of Ernesto Valverde’s squad – have set the stage for a fascinating week 11. Let’s dive into the exciting fixtures and betting insights ahead:
Friday 3 November
1/1 Real Betis | Draw 49/20 | Getafe 11/4 (22:00)
Real Betis aims to bounce back at home against Getafe this Friday. Despite a 1-0 loss to Eibar, Betis controlled much of the play but missed key chances. Getafe climbed to 11th after a resilient 2-1 comeback versus Real Sociedad. Betis boasts four wins in five home matches this season, making a home victory the smart bet here – back them at even money!
Saturday 4 November
11/20 Valencia | Draw 3/1 | Leganes 5/1 (14:00)
Valencia continue their fine run, clinching a sixth consecutive league win with a 2-1 triumph over Alaves. Brimming with confidence, they sit in second place. Leganes, dropping to seventh after losing 2-1 to Sevilla, face an uphill battle. Valencia has never lost in four historical clashes against Leganes – expect more of the same. Take Valencia at 11/20 and include them in your multiples.
17/4 Deportivo | Draw 26/10 | Atletico Madrid 13/20 (17:15)
Deportivo will attempt to extend their recent good form after a 3-1 win over Las Palmas. Atletico Madrid, unbeaten this season, were held to a 1-1 draw by Villarreal at home. Away from home, Simeone’s side recorded 3 wins and 3 draws in six games. With Diego Costa sidelined until January, the attack looks weakened. Expect fewer goals here; back Under 2.5 Goals at 15/20.
19/10 Alaves | Draw 2/1 | Espanyol 31/20 (19:30)
Alaves sit rock bottom with no home points after five losses. Despite some recent steady displays, Espanyol has yet to win away, scoring only twice in five matches. It’s likely to be a tight contest with fewer goals; Back Under 2.5 Goals at 11/20.
1/5 Barcelona | Draw 13/2 | Sevilla 10/1 (21:45)
Barcelona, unbeaten at Camp Nou with five wins, continue to impress this season. Sevilla’s away form is weak with just two wins in five away games and only two goals scored. Barca’s solid defence and attack should dominate; back Barcelona on the (-1) Handicap at 9/20.
Sunday 5 November
27/20 Levante | Draw 22/10 | Girona 21/10 (13:00)
Levante have drawn three straight games including 2-2 against Eibar, remaining unbeaten for three games but winless for five. Girona shocked Real Madrid with a 2-1 win and notched their second league win in a row. Recent Copa del Rey victory by Levante (2-0) adds spice to this clash. Under 2.5 Goals at 7/10 looks a smart call here.
21/20 Celta Vigo | Draw 47/20 | Athletic Bilbao 26/10 (17:15)
Celta Vigo looks to recover after a 2-1 loss to Malaga. Athletic Bilbao endure poor form with three losses in four matches including a 2-0 defeat to Barcelona. Their UEFA Europa League fixture could impact their performance. Luckily, Celta are slight favourites at 21/20 – great value to back at home.
6/10 Real Sociedad | Draw 3/1 | Eibar 17/4 (19:30)
Real Sociedad, facing a quick rebound after losing to Getafe, host Eibar who sit just above the relegation zone. Sociedad also have Europa League duties, which might tire the team. Eibar are without a win in six. Expect Sociedad to scrape through in a tight game.
9/20 Villarreal | Draw 7/2 | Malaga 57/10 (19:30)
Villarreal come into this fixture in fantastic form with three consecutive wins and a draw against Atletico Madrid. Malaga managed their first win last weekend but have lost all five away matches this season. Villarreal should comfortably take the three points here.
1/16 Real Madrid | Draw 11/1 | Las Palmas 25/1 (21:45)
Real Madrid, eager to keep pace with Barcelona, welcome Las Palmas who are 18th and come off a heavy 3-1 loss. Las Palmas draws both games with Madrid last season but this time, the scales look tipped. Expect a high-scoring game – back Real Madrid to win by two goals at 4/1!
