Getafe square off against Alaves on Monday night keen to end a three-match winless streak in La Liga, which has left them fighting to qualify for next season's Europa League.

Meanwhile, Alaves welcome their next opponents to Mendizorroza having suffered six straight defeats, putting the club at increasing risk of relegation to the second tier.

We say: Alaves 1-2 Getafe

With both teams out of form, we have to back the side with the most proven quality in their ranks. Based on their performances this season, that is Getafe, who we feel will edge out their hosts in a hard-fought battle.

Two teams battling for a European finish in Spain's top flight will lock horns on Monday night as Villarreal welcome Real Sociedad to Estadio de la Ceramica.

Villarreal are currently fifth in La Liga on 57 points, six points clear of seventh-placed Sociedad, who have struggled for results since returning to action last month.

We say: Villarreal 1-1 Real Sociedad

At full strength, we would fancy Villarreal to pick up all three points, but the Yellow Submarine will be missing some key players for this match. A draw would not be the worst result for the hosts as they look to consolidate in fifth, and we are struggling to separate the two sides on this occasion.

Granada vs. Real Madrid (Monday, 9.00pm)

Real Madrid will be looking to take another huge step towards winning La Liga when they travel to Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes to face Granada on Monday night.

Los Blancos are just two victories away from clinching the title, but Granada have top-six ambitions and will enter this match off the back of a three-game unbeaten run in Spain's top flight.

We say: Granada 0-2 Real Madrid

Granada's recent form must be respected, but it is difficult to see the home side stopping Madrid on Monday night. Zidane's side are well on course to lift the title, and we fancy them to put another hugely important victory on the board ahead of their final two matches of the campaign against Villarreal and Leganes.
