Barcelona will aim to make it four wins from four La Liga matches this season when they return to action on Saturday afternoon with a clash against newly-promoted Real Valladolid.

Hansi Flick's side are top of the table, boasting nine points from their first three games of 2024-25, while Real Valladolid occupy 11th, claiming four points from their opening three matches of the season.

We say: Barcelona 2-0 Real Valladolid


Real Valladolid are bidding to make it back-to-back wins over Barcelona for just the third time in their history, but we are finding it difficult to side with the visitors here. Barcelona might have to be patient on Saturday, but Flick's team have enough quality to navigate their way to a fourth straight success in the new season.

San Mames will play host to an intriguing La Liga affair on Saturday evening, as Athletic Bilbao welcome Atletico Madrid, with both sides yet to find their best form this season.

Athletic will enter the contest off the back of a 1-0 victory over Valencia on Wednesday, while Atletico drew 0-0 with Espanyol at Wanda Metropolitano on the same night.

We say: Athletic Bilbao 1-1 Atletico Madrid


This is a tough match to call, and we are finding it very hard to separate them. There has not actually been a draw between these two sides since September 2021, but we believe that a tight game on Saturday will end with the spoils being shared.

Espanyol vs. Rayo Vallecano (Saturday, 6.15pm)

Espanyol will be bidding to build on their impressive result against Atletico Madrid when they continue their La Liga campaign at home to Rayo Vallecano on Saturday evening.

The Catalan outfit picked up their first point of the season away to Atletico on Wednesday, while Rayo will enter this contest off the back of a 2-1 defeat to Barcelona on Tuesday.

We say: Espanyol 1-1 Rayo Vallecano


Espanyol will certainly have been boosted by their point against Atletico, but Rayo have made a solid start to the campaign, and we are finding it tough to back them to lose here. We fancy Espanyol to score their first league goal of the campaign, but the hosts might have to settle for a share of the spoils.

Valencia will be bidding to avoid a fourth straight La Liga defeat at the start of the 2024-25 campaign when they welcome Villarreal to Mestalla on Saturday night.

Los Che are bottom of the table with zero points to show from three matches, while Villarreal occupy second spot, with a strong start seeing them collect seven points from an available nine.

We say: Valencia 1-2 Villarreal


Valencia desperately need to stop their losing run, but Villarreal are a classy outfit, and we can see the Yellow Submarine securing all three points to continue their excellent start to the campaign.

Leganes will attempt to maintain their unbeaten start to the season when they welcome Mallorca to Estadio Municipal de Butarque for Saturday's La Liga contest.

Meanwhile, the visitors will be desperate to claim their first victory of the season before the league stops for the international period.

We say: Leganes 1-1 Mallorca


Leganes will be full of confidence after making an unbeaten start to the new season, and we think they will extend that run to four matches by holding Mallorca to a draw in the final round of fixtures before the international break.
