Valencia vs Athletic Bilbao

Saturday, 12-12-2020 @4pm

Valencia’s troubles don’t seem to fade away in the league this term. The host has lost only one game within their last five matches but took only 6 points out of 15 available.

Their previous encounter was on the road, and they shared the spoils with Eibar in a goalless draw. The 3 wins and 4 draws from dozen attempts have earned Los Che 13 points on the league table as it stands.

Bilbao is not any different from the host in the campaign this season. ATH has picked up the same 13 points from 4 wins and a draw in their 11 appearances until now.

The visitor has been winless in their recent two fixtures in the league. They will visit on the back of a 0-2 loss at home against Celta Vigo in the previous La Liga encounter in their schedule.

Only two of their last 12 meetings have ended in a draw. Both teams haven’t scored in their recent four fixtures. Their previous encounter gave a 0-2 away win for Bilbao. The host has recorded four of the last five overall wins. The win in the last visit was the visitor’s only one within the last five.

Getafe vs Sevilla

Getafe continues to drop points in the campaign this term as they enter the 12th round with 4 draws and 4 losses in their form.

The host has been winless for the past six clashes, including a 3-0 loss on the road against Levante last time out in the league schedule.

Sevilla will be in high morale after cracking their way into the Champions League playoffs this season.

The visitor had broken their three-game winning streak in La Liga, though in the last clash. They will visit on that 0-1 loss at home against Real Madrid in the previous encounter in the campaign.

Their previous encounter gave a 0-3 away win for Sevilla. Only one of their recent five matches has ended in a draw. The visitor has recorded three of the last five overall wins. Both teams haven’t scored in their recent four fixtures. The host has lost only two of their last 11 clashes at home.

Huesca vs Deportivo Alaves

Saturday, 12-12-2020 @8:30pm

Huesca has hit rock bottom in the league this season and doesn’t seem to make a comeback soon with their troubling form. Winless in the campaign for 12 straight games until now, the host will play after a 3-3 draw on the road with Granada in the previous league clash.

Alaves has kept their unbeaten streak intact in the league for the past six clashes. The visitor had only one win in the last five fixtures in their La Liga schedule as of late. They will visit on the back of a goalless draw at home with Real Sociedad last time out.

The visitor has won their last five meetings since 2009. The host has only one win in their six overall clashes. Their previous encounter gave a 1-3 away win for Alaves. Both teams have scored in three of the recent five fixtures. None of their overall six clashes have ended in a draw.

Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid

Saturday, 12-12-2020 @11pm

Real Madrid has to shake off their recent winless fixtures before entering the nest game.

With the 0-1 win on the road against Sevilla last time out in the campaign, Los Blancos will be more confident to host another La Liga game after the last home match ended in a defeat.

Atletico Madrid has extended their winning streak to the seventh game in the La Liga schedule.

The visitor is the only side remaining in the campaign with an unbeaten streak so far this season. They will visit on the back of a 2-0 win at home against the likes of Valladolid in the last league clash.

Two of their recent three meetings have ended in a draw. The host has been unbeaten in their last 8 clashes in La Liga. Both teams haven’t scored in their recent three fixtures. The host has recorded three of the last five overall wins. Their previous encounter gave a 1-0 home win for Los Blancos.
