It’s that time of the week again. It’s Matchday 24 in Spain’s La Liga and we head into this week’s round of games in top form as we cashed a +220 and +150 play last week to give us some nice profit, minus the under 2.5 loss. Let’s see what the top-rated sportsbooks have for us.

Atletico Madrid was struck down by ten men Barcelona 4-2 last time out, and it's apparent the supposed rift in the dressing room between the coach and his players seems to be very much true as the defending champions are struggling massively this season, it’s the worst start to a La Liga campaign they have had for a number of years.
This could be the perfect team to get them back to winning ways as they have beaten them to nil in the previous 11 home games. Getafe is also based in the capital, Madrid, and this is a derby match. Both these teams are known to pick up cards and given the fact it’s a derby match we like to look at over 5.5 cards at La Liga odds of -115.
Our official play however is going to be Atletico Madrid win and under 3.5 goals at -120, not only have Getafe been extremely poor on the road to Atletico in recent years, but they have not picked up a single road win all season long, picking up just 5 points from a total of 33.
Atletico Madrid might have only picked up 21 points at home compared to the league’s best Real Madrid with 28, but Atletico has played two games less than Madrid at home and will have plenty of opportunities to achieve an even better record on home soil.

The ex-league leaders have had a dramatic drop-off in recent weeks and they have now the 5th worst league form over the previous ten games. Sociedad has been struggling up top lately as they have now gone three games without scoring a goal.
With that being said Sociedad is very strong on home soil, especially defensively where they have allowed opponents to only score 6 goals across 11 games, a very impressive feat indeed, the number one ranked in the league at home. Unfortunately for Sociedad they also rank last in terms of goals scored at home, with just a total of 7 in 11 games.
Granada has been very poor away from home winning just 1 of their previous 15 league games. They have also seen just 4 of their 12 away games go over 2.5 goals, and Sociedad just 1 of 10 has seen three or more goals.
Let’s take the total goals under 2.5 here at -110, we believe this should be in around -130 for under 2.5 goals We are getting some nice value on this La Liga soccer pick. The fact there were 5 goals scored last time they met might be a reason behind such good value. Either way, get on this now because we see it dropping before kick-off.

Sunday, February 13, 2022 – 10:15 AM EST at Estadi Ciutat de Valencia
Levante has been struggling massively this season and given the fact they are on course to end the season with possibly less than 20 points, that would make them the first La Liga side to do so since Sporting Gijon in 1997/98.
Levante can take some comfort in the fact they have won 9 of their 11 league points on home soil, but something they will have to work hard on, they need to make the Estadi Ciutat a fortress. With that being said we do think it’s going to happen on matchday 24 as they play host to the high-flying Real Betis.
The team from Sevilla is currently sitting in the third spot in the league table and boasts the second-best road record with 6 wins, 2 ties, and 3 losses.
Our selection for this game is Real Betis to win at +120, Levante has failed to score in their previous four games, and if they somehow manage to find the back of the net here, we still won’t be completely worried as we see Betis scoring at least twice and should be able to keep the hosts to a minimum of one goal.
