Girona will be bidding to make it five straight wins in all competitions and continue their remarkable start to the 2023-24 La Liga campaign when they head to Osasuna on Saturday afternoon.
The visitors are currently second in the table, level on points (28) with leaders Real Madrid, while Osasuna sit in 11th position, having struggled for consistency in the opening months of the season.
We say: Osasuna 1-1 Girona
Girona are flying at the moment, but they are sure to hit a rough patch at some stage of the season, and this has the potential to be a tricky match despite Osasuna's problems this season. Girona are certainly good enough to win this, but we just have a feeling that a tight match could end all square.

Real Betis will be bidding to stretch their unbeaten run in all competitions to 10 matches when they continue their La Liga campaign at home to Mallorca on Saturday afternoon.
Both teams were in Copa del Rey action on Wednesday, with Real Betis incredibly putting 12 goals past Hernan Cortes, while Mallorca recorded a 4-0 victory over Boiro to progress to the second round.
We say: Real Betis 2-1 Mallorca
Real Betis have drawn five times in the league this season, while Mallorca have shared the points on six occasions, so it would certainly not be a surprise to see a stalemate here. Real Betis appear to be finding their feet, though, and we are expecting the Seville outfit to secure a narrow victory on Saturday.

We say: Celta Vigo 1-2 Sevilla
Sevilla have so much talent, and it would not be a surprise to see them find a run of wins in the not too distant future. Celta are really struggling, meanwhile, and we are therefore backing the visitors to secure an important three points on Saturday.

We say: Real Sociedad 1-2 Barcelona
