Barcelona Expected to Cruise as Betis and Mallorca Battle for Points
Sunday’s LaLiga schedule delivers four matches spanning title chases and relegation tension, highlighted by Barcelona’s home fixture at 19:30.
Clear mismatch. Barcelona remain dominant at home and continue their push at the top of the table, with goals flowing from Lewandowski and Yamal. Elche’s away form has been poor, and their defensive line struggles against high-tempo sides.
Edge: Barcelona ✅ (Banker)
Expect: Early pressure, high possession, multiple goals.
Two contrasting styles close the weekend. Betis rely on technical control and width through Isco and Luiz Henrique, while Mallorca focus on counterplay and compact defense. Betis’ home form gives them the clear edge.
Edge: Real Betis ✅
Upset Risk: Low — Mallorca struggle to score away.
Celta’s attacking quality, led by Aspas, makes them favourites, but Levante’s home record and disciplined midfield keep it competitive.
Edge: Celta Vigo ✅
Potential Draw: If Levante sit deep and force a tactical battle.
A mid-table clash with both sides strong at home but inconsistent away. Espanyol’s experience and sharper front line give them the edge, though Alavés rarely lose at Mendizorrotza.
Edge: Espanyol ✅
Watch for: Tight scoreline — under two goals likely.
Kick-offs run from 15:00 to 22:00, with Barcelona anchoring the Soccer 10 evening leg and Betis–Mallorca closing the LaLiga weekend.
