Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Thursday's La Liga fixtures, including Cadiz vs. Barcelona.

Granada vs. Real Sociedad (Thursday, 6.30pm)

Granada's search for a first league win of the season continues on Thursday, as they play host to Real Sociedad.

Roberto Moreno's side looked set to defeat Barcelona last time out but were pegged back in the dying minutes, seeing them remain without a victory in La Liga, while their visitors have enjoyed a strong start and sit in fifth spot after five games.

We say: Granada 1-2 Real Sociedad

Despite missing a long list of key players, Real Sociedad have been impressive so far, and we see them continuing a strong run of form by winning on Thursday.

The hosts certainly put up their best performance of the season against Barcelona on Monday, but ultimately could not see out the victory, and that could be telling of Moreno's side, who are still yet to put a team to the sword.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Osasuna vs. Real Betis (Thursday, 6.30pm)

Osasuna will look to continue their impressive start to the La Liga season on Thursday, when they welcome Real Betis to the Estadio El Sadar.

A tally of eight points from their first five league game sees them sit in ninth spot in the La Liga table, while their visitors sit two points worse off in 11th place.

We say: Osasuna 1-1 Real Betis

Real Betis may normally come into this clash as favourites, but, other than a surprise thrashing at the hands of Valencia, Osasuna have shown themselves to be tough to defeat.

We do not see either side outclassing the other on Thursday, instead opting for a low-scoring draw as their efforts could cancel one another out.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Cadiz vs. Barcelona (Thursday, 9.00pm)

Barcelona will look to bounce back from a slightly underwhelming start to the season on Thursday, when they make the trip to Cadiz.

The Blaugrana currently occupy seventh spot after four league outings, while their hosts sit three points worse off in 13th place, having played a game more.

We say: Cadiz 1-1 Barcelona

Barcelona are yet to fully kick into gear this season, and we would not be surprised to see Cadiz take advantage of a vulnerable squad, as they take on the Blaugrana at a good time.

While we do not see Los Piratas outclassing the visitors, Barca's lack of firepower going forward, other than Depay, could result in a low-scoring affair and a positive result for Cervera's men.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.
