Sevilla v Deportivo (Sat, 21:00)

HT/FT W/W: Sevilla threw away a two-goal lead at the Bernabeu last weekend, but their home form remains strong. They have gained 10 points from their last four matches with three W/Ws and three clean sheets. Additionally, they have won two-thirds (10/15) of their games hosting top-six sides stretching back to the beginning of 2007/08, recording eight W/W doubles in the process. Deportivo haven’t scored on the road in five games with L/Ls in their last two. Furthermore, they have been beaten in nine of their 11 trips to top-six teams since 2007/08.

Barcelona v Valencia (Sun, 18:00)

Asian handicap, Home -2: Barcelona have slipped up on the road lately, but their home form remains impeccable. They have won 11 and drawn one of their 12 such games this term with eight W/Ws and five victories by three or more goals. Moreover, they have gone W8-D1-L0 hosting top-six teams under Pep Guardiola with six HT wins; five times defeating the -2.5 goal handicap. Valencia are winless in four on the road and, worse still, have recorded L/Ls in all of their last five games at top-six sides. Further, they have been beaten by four or more goals in both of their last two trips to the Nou Camp.

Valladolid v Real Madrid (Sun, 20:00)

HT outcome: Valladolid have trailed at half-time in just 12 of their 32 (38%) home matches since the start of last season and also in only two of their last five games hosting either of the Big Two. Real Madrid sit at the top of LA Liga, albeit on goal difference, but they have led at the break in just three of their last 10 on the road. Over a longer period, they have recorded HT wins in five of 18 games at bottom-six clubs.
