Alaves

They have been winless for five matches. It is because they are so weak in defensive that they have conceded 14 goals in recent 5 games.



Real Valladolid

They lose to SD Huesca at 1-3 in last game. They play poorer and poorer on defensive, which have conceded 1.52 goals in average.



Verdict:

Alaves get 5W-2D-3L from Real Valladolid in the past. The Asian handicap first odd is Real Valladolid -0.25. Alaves suffer a three-match losing streak in host game. It is believed that Real Valladolid will win.



Alaves VS Real Valladolid

Pick: Real Valladolid -0.25
 
Atletico Madrid vs Celta Vigo Preview:

Possible starting lineups:

Atletico Madrid:
Oblak; Savic, Gimenez, Felipe; Vrsaljko, Llorente, Koke, Lemar, Saul; Correa, Luis Suarez

Celta Vigo:
Blanco; Mallo, Araujo, Murillo, Martin; Tapia; Mendez, Denis Suarez, Nolito; Mina, Aspas

Atletico Madrid will be looking to continue their winning series when they welcome Celta Vigo to the Spanish capital on Monday night. The Rojiblancos have 50 points and sit on the top of the table with a 10-point advantage to the second-placed Barcelona and with a game in hand. Coach Diego Simeone is enjoying the moment, as well as the fans. The actual leaders are in series of eight victories in La Liga. Atletico managed to beat Elche, Real Sociedad, Getafe, Alaves, Sevilla, Eibar, Valencia and Cadiz. The last match have produced six goals. Cadiz already made few shocking victories this season, they beat Real Madrid and Barcelona. Luis Suarez fired in two goals to help his new team to celebrate with 4:2. The Uruguayan veteran gave Atletico the lead in the 28th minute with a curling free kick which was cancelled out by Cadiz forward Alvaro Negredo seven minutes later. Saul Niguez restored the advantage for the guests in the finish of the first half. Cadiz had a strong penalty claim turned down when Koke blocked the ball with his hand while on the ground. The guests got a spot kick just after the break which Suarez converted for his 14th goal of the season. Negredo reduced the deficit to one goal with a scrappy strike in the 71st minute and then missed a big opportunity through Ivan Saponjic, but goalkeeper Jan Oblak saved his goal. Captain Koke then scored his first goal of the season in the 88th minute to secure the 4:2 win. Coach Simeone has some important players sidelined for this match - Joao Felix, Moussa Dembele, Mario Hermoso and Yannick Carrasco have recently been tested positive for coronavirus, while Kieran Trippier is still suspended.

Celta Vigo are currently on the 10th position, big 10 points off the European spots. But at the same time they are just six away from the drop zone. It is clear the next period is cruicial for their ambitions. At the moment, they are in poor form collecting just two points from the possible 15. The Galicians have no win on the last five matches in Primera Division. Celta started 2021 with three straight defeats. They lost 2:0 from Real Madrid, 4:0 from Villarreal and 2:1 from Betis. The atmosphere in the squads was bad following the mentioned defeats, so the draws in the last two rounds look like good results. Celta played an 1:1 draw with Eibar at home, while in the last round shared the points with Granada playing a goalless draw. The away form is nothing special, Los Celestes have just one victory in the 11 away league matches this season. Considering the fact that Atletico Madrid have the best home record in La Liga, it will be extremely hard for Celta in this match. Coach Eduardo Coudet will be without Sergio Alvarez and David Junca through injuries, but otherwise has no problems with the players. Majority of the players that started against Granada should keep the place, with key players Brais Mendez, Nolito, Iago Aspas and Santi Mina all ready. Some changes are possible, particularly in the midfield. Denis Suarez is expected to replace Fran Beltran.

Atletico Madrid vs Celta Vigo Prediction:

Atletico Madrid play an incredible season. Diego Simeone's men have collected 50 points after the first part of the season. If they can replicate their form in the second half of the season, Atletico will become the first Spanish side to end a campaign with 100 points since Barcelona in 2013. I believe they will win this match. They are hosts and they are in great form. In addition, Atletico have a player able to make a difference - Luis Suarez has scored five goals in his last three appearances and his confidence is very high.

Great piece of tip there, I also see this atlético side going very far and probably winning this edition of LaLiga. Simeone is probably aware of this!

Real Madrid vs Getafe Preview:

Possible starting lineups:

Real Madrid:
Courtois; Nacho, Varane, Mariano, Mendy; Modric, Casemiro, Blanco; Vinicius, Benzema, Asensio

Getafe:
Yanez; Suarez, Cabaco, Chakla, Nyom; Hernandez, Maksimovic, Arambarri, Alena, Cucurella; Mata

Real Madrid are sharing the second place with Barcelona as both teams have 43 points. The first placed Atletico Madrid have 50 points, but play with Celta Vigo tonight. That means the difference could be even bigger when Real start this match. On top of that, Atleti will have a match in hand. The first place looks far away at the moment. That is why coach Zinedine Zidane is under big pressure, as well as the players. According to some sources, the French coach will be changed at the end of the season. The actual form isn't at desired level, Real have one win and one defeat in the last two rounds of La Liga. First they lost 2:1 to Levante, while on Saturday beat Huesca with the same result. Raphael Varane scored a brace to secure a victory after coming from behind. Huesca found the back of the net just three minutes into the second period when Javi Galan fired home from outside the box. The hosts also struck the crossbar twice. Real equalized soon after when Raphael Varane bundled home a ball that spun high into the air after Karim Benzema had cracked a free-kick off Alvaro Fernandez’s crossbar. Benzema then missed a golden opportunity to score a second, but struck his powerful effort straight at Fernandez’s chest on the line. Nevertheless, Los Blancos netted a second goal six minutes from the end when Varane finished from close range after a Casemiro header from a free-kick had been saved. The atmosphere in the squad is much better now, though Zidane has lot of injury issues. He has only 11 first-team players available for this match, two of which are goalkeepers. Real named just six players on their bench against Huesca, with the side also suffering further injury doubts after that tie in Alvaro Odriozola, who was replaced in the 67th minute. He suffered from some hamstring problems, whilst the side could also be without Eder Militao due to discomfort in the adductor. Both players will undergo tests before the encounter on Tuesday night, but the chances of them featuring at this moment in time are slim as they are both seen as serious doubts. Eden Hazard, Sergio Ramons, Dani Carvajal, Lucas Vazquez, Federico Valverde, Rodrygo and Isco are all currently sidelined. Toni Kroos will also miss the game due to a suspension. Diego Altube can make that number 13, the ace is the side’s third-choice goalkeeper, he’s been on the bench all season and won’t feature unless Courtois or Lunin are injured.

Getafe are sharing the 12th place with two other teams - Valencia and Cadiz. All three sides have 24 points and they next few rounds will determine their ambitions. So, few good results and Getafe could fight for European spots, while a mini-series of bad results could see them involved into the relegation battle. They are currently four points ahead of 18th-placed Valladolid, and they have only won six of their 21 league matches this season. According to me, this is not enough for a team looking to secure Europa League spot. The actual form is poor, Getafe have two defeats and just one draw on the last three matches in La Liga. They lost 5:1 in Bilbao, played a goalless draw with Alaves and lost 3:0 to Sevilla during the weekend. It was a tense and nervous match in which Getafe were reduced to 10 men after a horror tackle by defender Djene Dakonam on the Argentine international Ocampos. Sevilla and Getafe coaches - Julen Lopetegui and Jose Bordalas - clashed on the sidelines in reaction to the foul and were both sent off, while the incident led to nine minutes of added time being played. Sevilla had been the better side before Djene's red card and were utterly dominant with an extra player, while they could have scored even more goals. It is clear Getafe attack is not working, they failed to score a single goal on the last two matches. Getafe are the lowest scorers in Primera Division this season with just 17 goals. Angel is their main threat with five of those 17 goals. But Real are not a desirable opponents in that situation. Getafe have failed to beat them in La Liga for 13 years. Real and Getafe last met in a friendly just before the start of La Liga’s season in September, when Real trashed their opponents 6:0. Both mutual games last season ended with Real victories. I will also mention that Getafe are by far the dirtiest team in Primera Division with 71 yellow cards in 21 games. Red cards are also on the menu. As I already wrote, Djene Dakonam picked up a red card on Saturday and now must serve suspension. Erick Cabaco is expecting to deputize. Head coach Bordalas could also be banned. Arambarri could replace David Timor in the middle of the park.

Real Madrid vs Getafe Prediction:


Real Madrid are huge favorites against Getafe. However, coach Zinedine Zidane has big injury and suspension worries ahead of this match. He has just 12 first-team players available due to injuries and suspensions. Two of them are goalkeepers, so the number of players is 10. The rest of the squad will be youngsters, so I expect Getafe at least to score. They played Over 2.5 on the last three mtches on rod, so I expect the series to continue. This should be an efficient match with at least three goals.

Real Madrid vs Getafe Pick: Over 2.5 goals @ 2.10 with Pinnacle
