Round 28 of La Liga is set to showcase some truly spectacular football encounters, which should see punters pocket big sums of money.

Following the mid-week action in the Champions League, we turn our attention to the top flight of Spanish football. Sports fans will have a chance to boost their playing accounts with the upcoming games in matchday 28, according to Spanish gambling news. Elche will have a hard time in the next game as they will face Valencia at home, a side that are 3rd in the league.

• Valencia looking to overcome Elche away
• Atletico Madrid strong favorites against rivals Getafe
• Celta Vigo maintain better odds against Levante away

The current defending champions Atletico Madrid will be aiming to collect a few points against cross town rivals Getafe, while Celta Vigo will square off against Levante away from home. Athletic Bilbao will host Almeria in a match that will bear a great deal of uncertainty considering the lackluster performances of both sides in recent times.

Elche vs Valencia and Atletico Madrid vs Getafe

Elche currently sit in 15th position in the league with an overall of 27 points. Their form in the recent encounters has seen them notch 2 wins, 2 losses and 1 draw, while they managed to record 4 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses while playing at home. Due to their bad performances Bet365 was reluctant to assign them preferential odds, despite playing on their own ground. That is why they have been dealt outsider chances 3.80 (14/5).

Valencia have been pretty impressive in recent games, scoring lots of goals in the oppositions’ net and managing to instill their way of playing during crucial encounters. In the last 5 games they won a superb 4 matches, while suffering only 1 draw in the process. While away they recorded 5 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses, however they are considered to be the preferential side 2.00 (1/1), with a draw being 3.40 (12/5).

The first game on Saturday will take place between Atletico Madrid and their town rivals Getafe. Diego Someone’s men have been phenomenal last season which saw them finish ahead of both Real Madrid and Barcelona and clinch the championship. This season however that doesn’t seem as possible considering they now sit in 4th place with only 56 points. Nevertheless, when it comes to the upcoming match they are the absolute favorites to win at Vicente Calderon 1.33 (1/3).

Getafe find themselves all the way down in 13th spot with 29 points from 27 games. In the last 5 matches they took turns recording 3 losses and 2 wins, which makes them an uncertain side to bet on. Against the current defending champions, mobile betting sites have given them no realistic chance to making an impact, assigning odds of 10.00 (9/1). A tie does not look to be on the cards as well with odds being 5.00 (4/1).

Levante vs Celta Vigo and Athletic Bilbao vs Almeria

Levante will host Celta Vigo in what should be a challenging match for both sides. The home team currently occupy 18th place with 22 points which effectively puts them in the relegation zone. They only have a limited amount of games to make improvements, however their next opponents sit in a better position and maintain a better form than them.

Celta Vigo have managed to collect 32 points which granted them a mid-table position (11th). Over the last 5 encounters they recorded 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, which game most recently. Due to their better performance Bet365 decided to give them favorite odds 2.25 (5/4), while a tie for this match stands at 3.30 (23/10). A win for the home side is not looking to be likely 3.30 (23/10), as they are known to blunder on occasion.

Almeria will travel to the Basque Country where they will be tested against Athletic Bilbao. Considering that they have tied 3 times and lost twice in the last 5 matches, they are not viewed as the preferential side to seal a win. On the road they have managed only to win on 5 occasions, with the other games ending in 1 draw and a massive 8 losses.

Athletic Bilbao sit in 8th position with 36 points, however they do not possess the same group of players as they use to several years ago. Online sportsbooks in Spain gave them preferential chances 1.50 (1/2), as they will be playing at home where they have notched 5 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. The visiting club will probably struggle to adapt during the game which is why Bet365 has given them limited chances 7.50 (13/2).
