Saturday's La Liga predictions including Mallorca vs. Barcelona

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


Cadiz vs. Villarreal (Saturday, 1.00pm)

It is the battle of the Yellow Submarines in LaLiga this weekend, as strugglers Cadiz welcome Champions League-chasing Villarreal to the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla on Saturday afternoon.

The hosts finally scored their first goal, and remarkably, sealed their first win of the season before the international break, while the visitors were held to a 1-1 draw by Sevilla at their temporary home, the Ciutat de Valencia.

We say: Cadiz 1-3 Villarreal


Villarreal are no strangers to dropping points in winnable games, having lost and drawn to Saturday's opponents last season.

Nonetheless, after the consistent start that Unai Emery's side have made, with the added incentive of getting back on track after recent dropped points, the visitors should be too strong.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Getafe vs. Real Valladolid (Saturday, 3.15pm)

Getafe welcome Real Valladolid to the Coliseum Alfonso Perez for the La Liga clash between two sides sitting in the bottom half of the table.

Two wins on the bounce have taken Getafe out of the relegation zone, but Valladolid know that a win by two or more goals will see them leapfrog their opponents.

We say: Getafe 1-0 Real Valladolid


Two wins on the bounce will have buoyed Getafe heading into this fixture, and although they have already conceded 12 goals this season, Valladolid's return of three goals from six games shows how much they have struggled at the other end of the pitch.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Sevilla vs. Atletico (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Arguably the game of the weekend in LaLiga takes place at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan on Saturday evening, as a steadily-improving Sevilla take on Diego Simeone's unpredictable Atletico Madrid.

After four defeats in five to start the season, Sevilla's last result, a 1-1 draw away to Villarreal, felt like decent point for the hosts, while the visitors will have to pick themselves up from a painful derby defeat just before the international break.

We say: Sevilla 1-2 Atletico Madrid


Two sides with plenty to prove, and with defensive deficiencies to boot, we can see an exciting game here, with plenty of opportunities at both sides.

We fancy Atletico Madrid to get the job done, however, with their superior attacking talent.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Mallorca vs. Barcelona (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Barcelona will be aiming to move top of La Liga when they visit Mallorca on Saturday evening.

The hosts, meanwhile, will be hoping to remain in the top half of the table by gaining a positive result.

We say: Mallorca 1-2 Barcelona


We do not expect Barcelona to win easily on Saturday, especially given their amount of absences through injury.

However, they have been in excellent form of late and should be able to gain a crucial victory in the end, which would move them top of La Liga for 24 hours at least.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.
