La Liga free soccer betting preview & tips | Matchday 3
The Spanish Primera Division is set to host midweek matches ahead of the September international break. Here are our free soccer betting picks and predictions for Matchday 3 of the 2024/25 La Liga.
Villarreal v Celta Vigo
Tuesday, August 27 – 5:30am AEST – Estadio de la Ceramica
With four points from two games, Villarreal will be hoping to secure three crucial points against league leaders Celta Vigo, who have so far collected maximum points. Defeated in their last three trips to Villarreal, expect Celta to suffer their first loss of the season.
Villarreal to win
Real Mallorca v Sevilla
Wednesday, August 28 – 3am AEST – Estadi Mallorca Son Moix
Both winless in their first two games, Real Mallorca and Sevilla will be eager to secure victory on Tuesday. Solid at home, where they held champions Real Madrid to a 1-1 draw on the opening weekend, Mallorca look poised to secure a win against the Andalusian side — just as they did at home last season.
Real Mallorca to win
Rayo Vallecano v Barcelona
Wednesday, August 28 – 5:30am AEST – Estadio de Vallecas
Second on the table on goal difference, Barcelona will be eager to extend their perfect La Liga start with a win over Rayo Vallecano, who have three points from two games. After scoring three goals in his first two games, leading sports bookmakers are paying +120 for Barca’s Robert Lewandowski to strike against Rayo Vallecano.
Robert Lewandowski anytime goalscorer
Athletic Bilbao v Valencia
Thursday, August 29 – 3am AEST – Estadio de San Mames
Athletic Bilbao have one point from a possible six, while Valencia have none after losing their first two games. With three wins from their last five meetings, expect Bilbao to dominate this home tie.
Athletic Bilbao to win both halves
Real Valladolid v Leganes
Thursday, August 29 – 3am AEST – Estadio Jose Zorrilla
Real Valladolid have three points from their first two games, while Leganes have collected four points. Expect the clash of these newly promoted sides to end in a stalemate, as it did in two Segunda Division meetings last season.
Draw
Atletico Madrid v Espanyol
Thursday, August 29 – 5:30am AEST – Estadio Civitas Metropolitano
Winless in their first two games, things could worsen for Espanyol when they face Atletico Madrid, who so far have four points. Finding their form after recently thrashing Girona 3-0, anticipate Atleti to secure all three points.
Atletico Madrid to win both halves
Real Sociedad v Deportivo Alaves
Thursday, August 29 – 5:30am AEST – Reale Seguros Stadium
Real Sociedad have three points from a possible six, while Deportivo Alaves have a single point. Unbeaten at home against Alaves in their last four meetings, with three wins and a draw, expect the trend to continue.
Real Sociedad to win
Girona v Osasuna
Friday, August 30 – 3am AEST – Estadi Montilivi
Girona will be hoping to register their first win of the season against Osasuna, who beat Real Mallorca 1-0 last Saturday. Given the porous nature of their defence this season, Girona are likely to concede but still triumph in this encounter.
Girona win / both teams to score
Las Palmas v Real Madrid
Friday, August 30 – 5:30am CEST – Estadio Gran Canaria
Real Madrid will be aiming to secure their second consecutive win of the season against Las Palmas, who lost to newly promoted Leganes on Sunday. Expect the champions to make it six wins in their last six meetings with Las Palmas.
Real Madrid to scorer over 2.5 goals
