2281

La Liga suffered a double-blow in midweek, as Barcelona and Atletico Madrid were knocked out of the Champions League.

It was a bad midweek for both big Spanish clubs. Can they rebound in La Liga round No. 32?

Celta Vigo - Las Palmas

Despite parting ways with Rafa Benitez, Celta Vigo have not improved enough to get away from the bottom three. Three points separate the Sky Blues from the relegation zone. They took just one point from the last two games, scoring just one goal.

Las Palmas are on a four-match losing streak in La Liga. With the club comfortable in midtable, it seems the squad has taken its foot off the accelerator. Las Palmas failed to score in their last four matches.

This could be a big match in Celta’s battle against relegation. They won their last two home matches against Las Palmas in all competitions. However, the Canaries won the reverse fixture 2-1 at home this season.

• Celta Vigo haven't been beaten in 7 of their 8 most recent home clashes with Las Palmas in all competitions.
• Las Palmas have a poor record of 4 consecutive losses in La Liga.
• Celta Vigo have won only 1 of their last 6 home all competitions matches.
• Las Palmas have achieved just 1 wins in their 10 most recent games in La Liga.
• Prediction: Celta Vigo

Girona - Cadiz

Girona are clinging onto third place in La Liga. After leading the league for half the season, Los Rojiblancos crashed back down to Earth. They lost three of their last five matches, including last week’s game to Atletico Madrid, 3-1.

Cadiz are 18th and three points off safety. They too are not playing well, losing two of their last three La Liga matches. Barcelona defeated Cadiz 1-0 a week ago.

Girona won the reverse fixture 1-0 at Cadiz. The last two games saw the winning team keep a clean sheet.

• No defeats can be found in Girona's 12 most recent home games in all competitions.
• Cadiz have achieved just 2 wins of their last 29 all competitions games.
• In their last 22 home games in all competitions, Girona have been undefeated on 19 occasions.

• Prediction: Girona

Deportivo Alaves - Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid won their last two meetings with Deportivo Alaves in La Liga by scores of 4-1 and 2-1, respectively. However, the last time Atletico visited Deportivo, they lost 1-0. Coming off a dramatic loss in the Champions League quarterfinals, can Atletico rebound?

Alaves are on a three-match losing streak in the league. They failed to score in each of those three games, conceding five goals.

Atletico Madrid won their last two La Liga matches. They defeated Villarreal 2-1 and Girona 3-1. Los Rojiblancos do struggle on the road, as they showed in the Champions League against Borussia Dortmund. They won just two of their last six road matches in La Liga.

• Atlético Madrid haven't been defeated by Deportivo Alavés in 14 of their last 15 all competitions matches.

• Prediction: Atletico Madrid

Getafe - Real Sociedad

Sociedad are unbeaten in four straight league matches. They won three times and drew once across those four fixtures. Two of the four games saw La Real keep clean sheeps.

Getafe took five points from the last 18 points on offer in La Liga. Despite their poor run of form, Los Azulones are safe from relegation this season. Getafe failed to score in their last two La Liga matches. Both games ended without wins for Los Azulones.

• Getafe haven't lost in 20 of their last 24 home games in La Liga.
• Real Sociedad have not been beaten in 17 of their 20 most recent away matches in all competitions.
• Getafe's performance has been disappointing of late, as they have won just 1 of their 7 most recent all competitions clashes.

• Prediction: Under 2.5 goals
