Both Valencia and Sevilla will be looking to return to winning ways in Spain's top flight when they lock horns at Mestalla on Tuesday afternoon.
Los Che will enter the contest off the back of a 2-2 draw with Barcelona at Camp Nou on Saturday, while Sevilla were held to a 1-1 draw by lowly Real Valladolid.
We say: Valencia 1-1 Sevilla
Valencia have drawn four of their last five in the league and have lost just one of their last seven; Sevilla will be eyeing an important three points, but we are finding it difficult to separate the two sides here, ultimately backing a low-scoring draw at Mestalla.
Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Osasuna make the trip to face Elche on Tuesday evening with the opportunity to move level on points with their opponents in the La Liga standings.
Both sides have failed to win any of their last half a dozen fixtures, heaping the pressure on each manager ahead of the end of the year.
We say: Elche 1-1 Osasuna
Given the amount of goals which they have conceded in recent matches, you have to expect a defensive-minded performance from the visitors. With the home side struggling for goals, such an approach may result in a low-scoring draw being played on Tuesday night.

Levante take on Huesca on Tuesday evening looking to build on their surprise 3-1 victory over previous La Liga leaders Real Sociedad at the weekend.
Meanwhile, Huesca head into this contest on the back of a 2-0 reverse at Athletic Bilbao, leaving the minnows with just one win from 14 matches this season.
We say: Huesca 1-1 Levante
When you combine their respective totals, these two sides have recorded 13 draws in 27 matches this season. Given the small margins for error in the lower half of the standings, both teams would likely accept another stalemate at this stage of the campaign.

Atletico Madrid will be looking to extend their advantage at the top of the La Liga table when they travel to second-placed Real Sociedad on Tuesday night.
Diego Simeone's side are currently top of the division, three points clear of Sociedad, while the capital giants incredibly have three games in hand over the team directly below them.
We say: Real Sociedad 0-1 Atletico Madrid
Sociedad's injury problems are a concern, and it is very difficult to back against Atletico due to their excellent form this season. We are expecting a close game on Tuesday evening but believe that the visitors will just have enough to claim a very important three points.

Barcelona will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they take on an improving Real Valladolid on Tuesday night.
Ronald Koeman's side, who are currently fifth in Spain's top flight, were held to a 2-2 draw by Valencia on Saturday, while Valladolid picked up an excellent point at Sevilla.
We say: Real Valladolid 1-2 Barcelona
Valladolid's recent performances and indeed results have been encouraging, and it would not be a surprise to see them move clear of the relegation zone in the coming weeks. Barca desperately need to return to winning ways, though, and we fancy Koeman's side to edge a close game on Tuesday night.
Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.

We say: Villarreal 2-1 Athletic Bilbao
This has all of the makings of a very interesting game of football, with both sides entering the match off the back of positive results. Athletic are capable of making it a difficult 90 minutes for the Yellow Submarine, but we just fancy the home side to edge a tight contest.
