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

As we prepare for another matchday of the La Liga season, our experts take a look at the bookmakers’ predictions for the upcoming games.

Let’s check out three betting tips for Matchday 8 of the 2022-23 La Liga campaign.

Expect goals when Barcelona host Celta Vigo

Barcelona suffered a frustrating 1-0 defeat against Inter in the Champions League after their narrow win over Mallorca last week.

We expect to see another attacking display from Xavi’s men this Sunday. Given the number of chances they created against Inter, Barca will most likely score more than once at Camp Nou.

On the other hand, Celta’s recent goal numbers suggest they might succeed in surprising their opponents with counter-attacks.

Back Mallorca to beat Elche

Mallorca have struggled for defensive form despite their attacking consistency this season.

The Pirates created a host of serious chances in their 1-0 defeat against Barca last week. We expect them to do so again when they meet Elche on Monday.

On the other hand, Elche’s poor defensive displays in recent weeks don’t suggest they can prevent their opponents from outscoring them in the upcoming game.

Goals likely when Real Sociedad face Villarreal

Villarreal continued their three-match winless run in La Liga with a goalless draw against Cadiz last week.

But we expect them to get back to goalscoring ways when they meet Sociedad on Sunday.

The hosts have shown brilliant attacking displays in recent weeks, scoring at least twice in all of their last four games.

However, a Europa League win over Sheriff exposed their defensive issues on Thursday. Given Villarreal’s firepower, we expect both sides to score when they lock horns in La Liga this week.
