Sunday's La Liga predictions including Athletic Bilbao vs. Villarreal

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's La Liga fixtures, including Athletic Bilbao vs. Villarreal.


Las Palmas vs. Sevilla (Sunday, 1.00pm)

Las Palmas will be bidding to bounce back from three successive defeats when they continue their La Liga campaign against Sevilla at Estadio Gran Canaria on Sunday afternoon.

The home side are currently 12th in the table, boasting 37 points from their 30 league games this season, while Sevilla sit 14th, six points behind their opponents in this weekend's contest.

We say: Las Palmas 1-1 Sevilla


Sevilla have won their last six La Liga matches against Las Palmas, and it is almost nine years since Los Amarillos triumphed in this fixture. The hosts will enter the match in disappointing form, but we are expecting them to be good enough to secure a share of the spoils against an inconsistent Sevilla on Sunday.

Granada vs. Alaves (Sunday, 3.15pm)

Relegation-threatened Granada will be aiming to end a five-game losing run in Spain's top flight when they continue their La Liga campaign at home to Alaves on Sunday afternoon.

Jose Ramon Sandoval's side are 19th in the table, 14 points behind 17th-placed Celta Vigo, while Alaves occupy 13th position, seven points ahead of the relegation zone.

We say: Granada 1-1 Alaves


Granada have only won twice in La Liga this season, so it is difficult to back them to secure all three points. The strugglers are also on a five-game losing run, which will hand Alaves confidence, but we are expecting the Andalusian outfit to secure a share of the spoils in Sunday's contest.

Athletic Bilbao vs. Villarreal (Sunday, 5.30pm)

Fresh from winning the 2023-24 Copa del Rey title, Athletic Bilbao will resume their La Liga campaign with a home fixture against Villarreal on Sunday evening.

Athletic are currently fifth in the table, two points behind fourth-placed Atletico Madrid, while Villarreal sit 10th, some 11 points behind sixth-placed Real Sociedad in the battle to secure a European position.

We say: Athletic Bilbao 2-1 Villarreal


This has all of the makings of a very interesting match, with Villarreal in strong form, while Athletic are battling to break into the top four. It would not be a surprise to see the points shared on Sunday, but we are expecting the hosts to navigate their way to an important three points at San Mames.

Real Sociedad vs. Almeria (Sunday, 8.00pm)

Real Sociedad will be aiming to make it four straight wins in Spain's top flight when they continue their campaign at home to basement side Almeria on Sunday night.

Imanol Alguacil's side are currently sixth in the La Liga table, five points ahead of seventh-placed Valencia, while Almeria are bottom, 15 points from the safety of 17th position.

We say: Real Sociedad 2-0 Almeria


Almeria are certainly good enough to cause Real Sociedad problems this weekend, with the away side better than what they have shown for most of the season. The hosts are in strong form, though, and we are expecting them to secure all three points in routine fashion on Sunday.
