Get ready to dive into some smashing La Liga matchups this week packed with plenty of betting value as we preview the action
This Week 16 sees eight exciting clashes in La Liga after Real Madrid’s fixture away to Leganes was postponed due to their Club World Cup commitments. There’s heaps to look forward to, with our expert preview revealing some real gems ready for your betting pleasure.
Friday 15 December
Sevilla 3/10 | Draw 9/2 | Levante 8/1 (22:00)
Sevilla are eager to bounce back from a tough 5-0 loss to Real Madrid and have a strong home record this season. At the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, they’ve remained unbeaten, securing six wins out of seven matches and boasting a solid defence. Levante just couldn’t find the win against Athletic Bilbao, extending their winless streak to four. Sevilla cruised past Levante 3-1 last season at home, and we reckon they’ll replicate that result.
Saturday 16 December
Athletic Bilbao 12/10 | Draw 47/20 | Real Sociedad 9/4 (17:15)
After a challenging spell, Athletic Bilbao finally snapped their six-game winless run with a 2-1 victory at Levante. They’re determined to build on that momentum and steer clear of relegation worries. On the flip side, Real Sociedad are struggling, on a four-match losing streak overall and without a win in their last three away league fixtures. Bilbao swept past Sociedad twice last season, and we’re backing them to clinch the win again at 12/10 odds.
Atletico Madrid 2/13 | Draw 6/1 | Alaves 18/1 (21:45)
Atletico Madrid sit third after a narrow 1-0 win at Real Betis. They are on a three-game winning streak and will aim to keep that form intact. Alaves, sitting 18th, have been on a recent roll too, with three wins including a Copa del Rey victory. With low value for home win odds, try the Atletico Win & Both Teams to Score market at 49/20 for some added excitement.
Eibar 9/4 | Draw 24/10 | Valencia 12/10 (19:30)
Eibar’s attempt to extend their winning streak was halted by a goalless draw at Getafe. Meanwhile, Valencia bounced back with a win to stay close behind leaders Barcelona. The Both Teams to Score market at 13/20 looks like a smart play here.
Sunday 17 December
Girona 21/20 | Draw 23/10 | Getafe 11/4 (13:00)
Girona put an end to their losing streak with a 1-0 win at Espanyol, moving up to eighth place on the table. Getafe, level on points, are looking to bounce back from a goalless home draw. Despite their struggles on the road, a draw looks a realistic outcome here.
Celta Vigo 27/20 | Draw 47/20 | Villarreal 2/1 (17:15)
Celta Vigo come into this match after hard-fought games against the top teams. Back on home soil, they are confident, having won their last two at home. Villarreal desperately need a win to stop their losing streak. The home win at 27/20 odds is the pick of the day.
Las Palmas 15/10 | Draw 23/10 | Espanyol 18/10 (19:30)
Las Palmas are struggling away from home and also have a poor record at home recently. Espanyol are close in form and just a few points above the drop zone. A draw at 23/10 odds might be the safest bet here.
Barcelona 1/12 | Draw 10/1 | Deportivo 22/1 (21:45)
Barcelona maintain a strong lead at the top after a 2-0 win over Villarreal. Deportivo La Coruna are just above the relegation zone, but Barcelona thrashed them 4-0 last season. Betting on Barcelona to win to nil at 15/20 is a solid choice.
TREBLE @ 37/10
- Sevilla Win 3/10
- Athletic Bilbao Win 12/10
- Eibar vs Valencia BTTS 13/20
