Before the Round – Trends on La Liga (16/03-17/03)

2412

Round No. 29 of the La Liga season will see teams moving into the home stretch of the campaign.

Real Madrid are on course to win the title unless Girona or Barcelona catch fire. Meanwhile, the battle for safety between Celta Vigo and Cadiz is exciting.

Mallorca - Granada

Granada downed Mallorca 3-2 in the teams’ reverse fixture. Los Rojiblancos will be hoping for another win over Mallorca, but a victory may not be enough to improve their chances of La Liga survival.

Mallorca are five points above the relegation zone. They took seven points from the last six games in La Liga. However, the Islanders are coming off a 1-0 defeat to Barcelona.

Granada are on a two-game losing streak ahead of the weekend. The trend between these teams has been high-scoring games. The last four meetings between Mallorca and Granada saw over 2.5 goals.

• Real Mallorca have been defeated in their last 5 matches against Granada CF in La Liga.
• Granada CF have achieved just 6 wins in their 36 most recent away games in all competitions.
• Real Mallorca are unbeaten in 24 of their last 28 home matches in La Liga.
• Granada CF have conceded 1 or more goals in their last 13 away La Liga games in a row.
• Prediction: Draw

Athletic Bilbao - Deportivo Alaves

Athletic Bilbao are preparing for the Copa del Rey final and a possible trophy. They will meet Mallorca in the final next month. Although Athletic Club are in the tournament final, the season could get even sweeter. The Lions are just two points off the top four.

Deportivo Alaves are fresh off a 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano. Alaves went unbeaten in four of their last five league fixtures. However, they scored just three goals across those five games.

Athletic Bilbao cruised to a 2-0 win away to Las Palmas a week ago. They took four points from the last two games in La Liga. The Lions conceded the second-fewest goals in La Liga, with just 26.

• Athletic Bilbao are unbeaten in all of their last 16 home matches in all competitions.
• Deportivo Alavés have won just 2 of their last 14 away matches in La Liga.
• Athletic Bilbao are unbeaten in 23 of their last 27 La Liga games.
• In their 5 most recent matches in all competitions, Deportivo Alavés have seen under 2.5 goals scored.
• Prediction: Athletic Bilbao

Sevilla - Celta Vigo

Celta Vigo sacked manager Rafael Benitez on Tuesday. The manager won just five La Liga games in charge of the Sky Blues, who sit a mere two points above the relegation zone. Draws have been the trend between Celta and Sevilla in recent times.

The last four games between these clubs ended as stalemates. Sevilla have drawn 10 of their 28 games this term. Celta Vigo drew nine of 28 fixtures in the league. Will this be another stalemate?

Sevilla’s form has improved, as they took four points from the last six on offer. Los Rojiblancos are six points above the relegation zone. Celta were beaten 4-0 by Madrid last weekend. The defeat ended a two-game unbeaten run.

• Both teams scored in Sevilla's last 8 home matches against Celta Vigo in La Liga.
• Celta Vigo have won just 4 of their last 24 matches in La Liga.
• In their last 12 home games in all competitions, Sevilla have recorded only 2 wins.
• Over 2.5 goals have been scored in the 5 most recent away games in all competitions of Celta Vigo.
• Prediction: Over 2.5 goals

Rayo Vallecano - Real Betis

Four points separate Rayo Vallecano from the relegation zone. The loss of manager Andoni Iraola to Bournemouth has affected the club this term. Real Betis, on the other hand, are fighting for a place in Europe for next season. However, their form is wavering.

Betis lost their last two matches in the league. They are seventh in the standings but one point off sixth place. Los Verdiblancos went unbeaten in their last six games versus Rayo and won the reverse fixture 1-0 at the Estadio Benito Villamarin.

Rayo failed to win any of their last six matches. They fell 1-0 to Deportivo Alaves last weekend, leaving them hanging on to safety. The Red Sashes have scored the second-fewest goals this season, with 23.

• Rayo Vallecano have achieved just 2 wins in their 23 most recent games in La Liga.
• Real Betis are undefeated against Rayo Vallecano in their last 12 encounters (all competitions).
• The average number of goals scored by Rayo Vallecano is 0.92 for their home matches in all competitions.
• Real Betis have achieved just 2 wins in their 12 most recent away games in La Liga.
• Prediction: Both Teams to Score - No
