Sunday's La Liga predictions including Barcelona vs. Atletico Madrid

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


Elche vs. Valencia (Sunday, 1.00pm)

Two of the bottom three in Spain's top flight will lock horns for a crucial match on Sunday afternoon, with 20th-placed Elche hosting 18th-placed Valencia.

Elche are rooted to the bottom of the La Liga table, sitting 17 points from the safety of 17th position, while Valencia are three points behind the team directly above them, Almeria.

We say: Elche 0-1 Valencia


Elche have been the worst side in La Liga this season, so Valencia will be expecting to claim all three points here. Los Che might have to suffer and endure some difficult moments, but we are backing the away side to secure what would be a vital win at this stage of the campaign.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Barcelona vs. Atletico (Sunday, 3.15pm)

One of the biggest fixtures on the Spanish football calendar will take place at Camp Nou on Sunday afternoon, with Barcelona welcoming Atletico Madrid in La Liga.

The home side are comfortably top of the table, sitting 11 points clear of second-placed Real Madrid, while Atletico occupy third position, only two points behind their Madrid rivals on the same number of games (29).

We say: Barcelona 1-1 Atletico Madrid


Unless something extraordinary happens, Barcelona are going to win the title this season, but Atletico will fancy their chances of avoiding defeat here. Simeone's side have been the best team in the division over the last few weeks, and we are therefore finding it very difficult to back them to lose on Sunday afternoon.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Mallorca vs. Getafe (Sunday, 5.30pm)

Mallorca will be bidding to make it back-to-back wins in La Liga when they continue their campaign at home to Getafe on Sunday evening.

Javier Aguirre's side will enter the contest off the back of a 1-0 victory over Celta Vigo, while Getafe, who are in the relegation mix at this stage of the season, held Barcelona to a goalless draw last time out.

We say: Mallorca 0-0 Getafe


Both teams could play back fives in this match, which is likely to make it a very tight affair. Getafe would accept a point if it were offered ahead of kickoff, and we are backing the visitors to secure a share of the spoils in a goalless draw on Sunday evening.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Sevilla vs. Villarreal (Sunday, 8.00pm)

Fresh from booking their spot in the semi-finals of the Europa League, Sevilla will resume their La Liga campaign at home to Villarreal on Sunday night.

Despite their impressive European success over Manchester United, a disappointing league season has left Sevilla down in 13th position in the table, while Villarreal are sixth, just four points behind fourth-placed Real Sociedad in the race for a Champions League finish.

We say: Sevilla 2-2 Villarreal


Sevilla put so much into their contest with Man United that it is only natural to expect a drop-off in terms of their performance in this match. Villarreal will be confident of picking up a positive result on Sunday, and we are backing the points to be shared in an entertaining contest.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.
