Ace Football presents detailed betting tips on the La Liga games of the weekend.

As we prepare for another weekend of La Liga football, our experts take a look at the bookmakers’ predictions for the upcoming matches.

Let’s check out three betting tips for Matchday 30 of La Liga.

Back Valencia to beat Cadiz on home soil

Valencia has remained unbeaten in their last five games across all competitions, winning four of them. After a period of poor results in late February, it seems the Bats are back in their best form.

This week, they will host Cadiz, who shocked Villarreal 1-0 before the international break. The 17th-placed side have been hard to beat lately, suffering only one defeat in their last six games. 

However, with the exception of their victory over Villarreal, all of their other good results have come against teams from the bottom half of the table. Cadiz will most likely push for another smash-and-grab win. However, we expect Valencia to find enough goalscoring opportunities to bag the home victory. 

Expect Real Madrid to return to winning ways against Celta Vigo

Real Madrid went into the international break after a crushing 4-0 defeat against Barcelona at Camp Nou. The Blancos were nowhere near the side that defeated Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 in the Champions League only days before El Clasico.

However, we expect Carlo Ancelotti’s side to bounce back from the Barcelona defeat this weekend. Karim Benzema, whose absence forced the Italian coach to use an unfamiliar formation against Barca, is now back in Real Madrid’s lineup. The French forward will be hungry to continue his goalscoring spree, and we don’t expect Celta to prevent him from doing so.

Real Madrid had won five consecutive games before El Clasico. Their overall form during March, combined with the attractive odds for their victory, convinces us to put our faith in Ancelotti’s side to get back to winning ways this weekend.

Don’t expect goals when Real Sociedad host Espanyol

Sociedad have been trying hard to reclaim their top-5 spot in the league lately. Except for their 4-1 defeat against Real Madrid, the Basque side have remained unbeaten in their last five games.

Sociedad’s goalless draw against Sevilla showcased their much-improved defensive work rate. In their first game after the international break, they must face Espanyol, who showed similar signs of defensive improvement recently.

The Catalan side have continued their goalscoring struggles in recent weeks. However, scoring only once per game have saved them from defeats in three of their last five games. We expect both sides to prevent each other from effectively making goalscoring chances on Monday.
