La Liga action resumes this weekend with Matchday 14 following the November international break. Here are our free soccer betting predictions for this week’s action in the 2024-25 Spanish Primera Division.

Getafe v Real Valladolid

Saturday, November 23 – 7am AEDT – Estadio Coliseum

Getafe, sitting 17th, will be hoping to end their five-game winless run when they host Real Valladolid, who are second from bottom. Given that both sides are struggling for goals, this encounter could end in a stalemate.

Valencia v Real Betis

Sunday, November 14 – 12am AEDT – Mestalla Stadium

Returning to action for the first time since the end of October due to floods, bottom-placed Valencia will be seeking a positive result against Real Betis, who are in the top half of the table. Expect the hosts to secure maximum points in this emotionally charged encounter.

Atletico Madrid v Deportivo Alaves

Sunday, November 14 – 2:15am AEDT – Metropolitano Stadium

Third-placed Atletico Madrid will be looking to advance their title hopes when they host Alaves, who sit 15th. Expect Diego Simeone’s men to secure a seventh consecutive home win against their guests.

Girona v Espanyol

Sunday, November 14 – 4:30am AEDT – Estadi Montilivi

Girona will be eager to continue their gradual ascension up the Liga table when they face Espanyol, who are third from bottom. Victorious in their last encounter, back the hosts to hand Espanyol a fourth consecutive league defeat.

Las Palmas v Real Mallorca

Sunday, November 14 – 4:30am AEDT – Estadio Gran Canaria

Defeated in their last two outings, ninth-placed Mallorca will be hoping to bounce back against Las Palmas, who are seven places below them. Although the hosts are expected to offer stern resistance, the Vermilions should do enough to grind out a win.

Celta Vigo v Barcelona

Sunday, November 14 – 7am AEDT – Estadio de Balaidos

Beaten by Real Sociedad before the international break, league leaders Barcelona will be raring to go against 11th-placed Celta Vigo. Robert Lewandowski is a strong candidate for the Golden Boot with 14 goals so far, and online bookmakers are paying -111.11 for the Barca striker to add to his tally.

Osasuna v Villarreal

Monday, November 25 – 12am AEDT – El Sadar Stadium

Osasuna are fifth on the table, while Villarreal are one position and three points above them. Evenly matched in their last meeting, there is a good chance both teams will settle for a point.

Sevilla v Rayo Vallecano

Monday, November 25 – 2:15am AEDT – Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium

Rayo Vallecano are 12th on the table with 16 points, while Sevilla are 13th with 15 points. Enjoying a slightly better run in the league, Vallecano could hand their hosts a third consecutive league defeat.

Leganes v Real Madrid

Monday, November 25 – 4:30am AEDT – Estadio Municipal de Butarque

After capitalising on Barca’s slump with a convincing win over Osasuna, second-placed Real Madrid will be keen on securing maximum points against 14th-placed Leganes. Vinicius Jr bagged a hat-trick in Real’s last outing, and the Brazilian forward looks a decent bet to score against the Pepineros.

Athletic Bilbao v Real Sociedad

Monday, November 25 – 7am AEDT – Estadio de San Mames

Boosted by their win over Barcelona, eighth-placed Sociedad will be confident ahead of their trip to Athletic Bilbao, who are two places above them. However, after losing on their last three trips to the San Mames, another loss could be imminent for Sociedad.
