Saturday's La Liga predictions including Athletic Bilbao vs. Atletico Madrid

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

Newly-promoted Girona welcome a steadily-improving Cadiz to Montilivi on Saturday, hoping to put an end to a three-game losing streak in LaLiga.

The hosts were unfortunate to fall to a narrow 2-1 defeat at Atletico Madrid last weekend, while the visitors made it three games unbeaten with a 2-2 draw to Espanyol.

We say: Girona 2-0 Cadiz


Girona are certainly due a win after three good performances in tough games, and will see the visit of Cadiz as an opportunity to grab a much-needed three points.

Cadiz will be a tough nut to crack, but we expect the Catalan side to get the job done.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Valencia vs. Elche (Saturday, 3.15pm)

Valencia will be bidding to make it back-to-back victories in La Liga when they continue their campaign at home to Elche on Saturday afternoon.

Los Che are currently seventh in the table, three points behind fourth-placed Atletico Madrid, while Elche are rock bottom of the division, having collected just two points from eight matches.

We say: Valencia 2-0 Elche


Elche were much-improved against Mallorca last time out, and there should be a fresh feel around the club due to the appointment of a new manager. Valencia are currently in impressive form, though, and we are expecting Los Che to secure all three points courtesy of a 2-0 scoreline.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Mallorca vs. Sevilla (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Mid-table Mallorca welcome struggling Sevilla to Son Moix on Saturday, hoping to get back on track in LaLiga after two games without a win.

The home side rescued a point in a topsy-turvy draw to Elche last weekend, while the visitors have looked much more competitive since the arrival of new coach Jorge Sampaoli, holding high-flying Athletic Bilbao to a 1-1 draw.

We say: Mallorca 1-2 Sevilla


With Sevilla slowly rediscovering some form, we are backing them to record just their second win of the season here.

It will not be easy, given Mallorca's strong start to the season, but the absence of Vedat Muriqi could be costly for the home side going forward.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Athletic Bilbao vs. Atletico (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Athletic Bilbao will be bidding to continue their strong start to the campaign when they welcome Atletico Madrid to San Mames on Saturday night.

The home side are currently third in the La Liga table, boasting 17 points from their opening eight matches, while Atletico occupy fourth, one point behind their opponents ahead of this contest.

We say: Athletic Bilbao 1-1 Atletico Madrid


Athletic will certainly be the fresher of the two sides on Saturday, and their form this season has been very impressive. Atletico are always difficult to back against due to their mentality, though, and we have a feeling that a tight match at San Mames will end in a low-scoring draw.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.
