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

Elche vs. Osasuna (Sunday, 1.00pm)

Elche will be bidding to make it three La Liga wins in a row when they welcome Osasuna to Estadio Manuel Martínez Valero on Saturday afternoon.

The home side are currently 14th in the table, eight points clear of the relegation zone, while Osasuna occupy ninth position, four points behind eight-placed Athletic Bilbao.

We say: Elche 1-1 Osasuna

Elche will be flying after back-to-back wins, but Osasuna are a team to be taken extremely seriously at this level, so we are finding it difficult to back them to lose here. Draws have been common between these two sides in recent meetings, and we are backing another stalemate on Sunday.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Granada vs. Celta Vigo (Sunday, 3.15pm)

Granada's battle to remain in La Liga will continue on Sunday afternoon when they welcome Celta Vigo to Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes.

The home side are currently 18th in the table, one point behind 17th-placed Cadiz on the same matches (33), while Celta occupy 12th position, nine points clear of the relegation zone.

We say: Granada 1-1 Celta Vigo

The pair played out a goalless draw when they locked horns in the corresponding match last season, and we are predicting another stalemate here. Granada certainly need all three points more than Celta, but the Sky Blues have been relatively strong on their travels this season, and we can see this game finishing all square.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Rayo Vallecano will be bidding to make it three La Liga victories in a row when they welcome Real Sociedad to Estadio de Vallecas on Sunday night.

The home side are currently 11th in the table, now 10 points clear of the relegation zone, while Real Sociedad sit sixth, six points behind fourth-placed Atletico Madrid in the race for a Champions League spot.

We say: Rayo Vallecano 2-2 Real Sociedad

Rayo's two recent victories will have handed them a lot of confidence, and they will fancy their chances of picking up another positive result here. Real Sociedad have not found it easy to win on their travels in the league this term, and we are backing an entertaining draw this weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Barcelona vs. Mallorca (Sunday, 8.00pm)

Barcelona will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they welcome relegation-threatened Mallorca to Camp Nou on Sunday night.

The Catalan outfit are currently second in the table, 15 points behind league leaders Real Madrid, who would win the title with a point against Espanyol on Saturday, while Mallorca sit 16th in Spain's top flight, two points ahead of 18th-placed Granada on the same number of matches (33).

We say: Barcelona 2-1 Mallorca

Mallorca will certainly take heart from Barcelona's last two league results at Camp Nou, and the visitors arguably need the points more than the hosts. That said, the Catalan outfit will be desperate to return to winning ways, and we are expecting them to shade a close match on Sunday night.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.
