La Liga Matchday 33 preview, betting picks & best odds

Matchday 33 of La Liga is set to deliver an entertaining round of games, spanning both ends of the table. Below are our free soccer betting tips for all 10 games in the Spanish top flight this weekend.

Real Sociedad v Real Madrid

Friday, April 26 – 9pm CEST – Reale Seguros Stadium

Needing just three wins from the next six games to secure their second Liga crown in three years, Real Madrid look destined to put one hand on the trophy with a win over Real Sociedad. Confident following Sunday’s emphatic Clasico win, Carlo Ancelotti’s charges are paying a good price to complete the season double over their hosts.

Las Palmas v Girona

Saturday, April 27 – 2pm CEST – Estadio Gran Canaria

Following last Saturday’s return to winning ways, Girona will be determined to build on that result with a win over Las Palmas. Hellbent on qualifying for the Champions League, Girona seem all but certain to hand their hosts a sixth successive Liga defeat.

Almeria v Getafe

Saturday, April 27 – 4:25pm CEST – Power Horse Stadium

After a series of matches against tougher opposition where they registered only one win in eight attempts, Getafe will be excited ahead of their trip to bottom-placed Almeria. With just one win all season long, the hosts’ fate is well and truly cast in stone.

Deportivo Alaves v Celta Vigo

Saturday, April 27 – 6:30pm CEST – Mendizorrotza

Deportivo Alaves will have an extra spring in their step after Sunday’s 2-0 win over Atletico Madrid. Celta Vigo, also victorious in their last outing, need to solidify their survival chances by collecting as many points as possible. There should be plenty of opportunities at both ends of the pitch.

Atletico Madrid v Athletic Bilbao

Saturday, April 27 – 9pm CEST – Wanda Metropolitano

A Champions League place will be on the line when these two sides lock horns. Athletic Bilbao have defeated Atletico Madrid in each of their last three meetings, and with so much at stake, expect both teams to give their all.

Cadiz v Real Mallorca

Sunday, April 28 – 2pm CEST – Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla

Separated by six points at the bottom end of the table, both Cadiz and Real Mallorca are in desperate need of a win. Each of the last six meetings between these two sides has delivered first-half goals, so you might as well back that trend to continue.

Granada v Osasuna

Sunday, April 28 – 4:15pm CEST – Nuevo Estadio de Los Cármenes

With only one win from their last 13 outings, relegation-bound Granada are desperate for points as the welcome Osasuna. Though victorious during the reverse fixture in October, the visitors from Pamplona have since declined in form and could struggle to break down their hosts.

Villarreal v Rayo Vallecano

Sunday, April 28 – 6:30pm CEST – Estadi de la Ceramica

With five wins from their last seven games, Villarreal are in decent form ahead of Rayo Vallecano’s visit. That is in stark contrast to Inigo Perez’s side, who have only triumphed in two of their last seven. In contention for European football, the hosts should be able to get over the line in this fixture.

Real Betis v Sevilla

Sunday, April 28 – 9pm CEST – Estadio Benito Villamarin

On course to secure European football, Real Betis have a tough test against an unpredictable Sevilla side. Although in the bottom half of the table, Sevilla have won three successive games. At the centre of the action is top scorer Youssef En-Nesyri, who has netted 14 times this season — including in the last two games.

Barcelona v Valencia

Monday, April 29 – 9pm CEST – Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys

Down but not out, all Barcelona can do is win all six remaining matches and hope leaders Real Madrid go on the worst run imaginable. Chasing European qualification, Valencia should offer stern opposition having broken through the Barca defence in the reverse fixture.
