Looking for La Liga betting tips? You’ve come to the right place! Football Whispers provides free tips for every round of matches, as well as predictions for the division’s outright markets:

Prediction 1

Celta Vigo vs Real Madrid: Celta Vigo or draw @ 11/10 (2.10)

We kick start our La Liga predictions with a bold call that tips Celta Vigo to earn at least a draw from their home game with Real Madrid. Celta Vigo have only lost one of their last five home matches whilst they’ve only lost two games in front of their own fans since February 17th. Real Madrid meanwhile have been found wanting on the road a lot of late; they’ve only won three of their last 10 away games.

Prediction 2

Mallorca vs Vallecano: Both teams to score – Yes @ 69/50 (2.38)

We now turn our attention to Mallorca vs Vallecano and the odds on offer for both teams scoring are sensationally good value. The odds imply a probability of 42% but Mallorca and Vallecano have seen four of their last five games (80%) feature goals at both ends whilst three of the last five head to head games (60%) have also seen both teams score goals.

La Liga Prediction 3

Valencia vs Las Palmas: Valencia to win @ 4/5 (1.80)

We wrap up our La Liga tips by backing Valencia to beat Las Palmas. Las Palmas are winless in the nine games they’ve played this season whilst they’ve lost each of their four away games in that period. Valencia meanwhile might have only won one game this season but, notably, that victory came at the Estadio de Mestalla where they are unbeaten in three. Weighing everything up, we fancy the hosts to stretch that home undefeated streak to four with a win here.

Outright markets and La Liga Odds

La Liga Winner Odds

Last season saw Real Madrid romp to the La Liga title with relative ease. Barcelona had a fair few issues with their managerial situation becoming somewhat farcical as Xavi was in, then out, in again and, then after the season reached it’s climax, out again. Atletico Madrid meanwhile lost some of the defence solidity they’ve been known for to count themselves out of a title tilt. The biggest threat for a long time actually came from Girona. Girona won’t be a threat in 2024/25. Atleti and Barcelona will expect to be stronger than last season though and, particularly Barca, their youngsters such as Lamine Yamal, Gavi and Victor Roque are all more experienced. Athletic Club may fancy themselves for a top four finish after missing out by eight points this time round but they are at risk of losing Nico Williams to Barcelona, which would be a big deal for both clubs involved. The obvious outright pick for the title though is for Real Madrid to win La Liga again. They’ve got experience in abundance but also have the youthful energy that their rivals boast. Throw in the new additions of Kylian Mbappe and Endrick and they’re hard to bet against.
  • Real Madrid @ 1/2 (1.50)
  • Barcelona @ 9/4 (3.25)
  • Atletico Madrid @ 10/1 (11.00)
  • Girona @ 33/1 (34.00)

La Liga Top Goalscorer Odds

The new face of La Liga, Kylian Mbappe was widely tipped for the golden boot but, right now, it’s the veteran Robert Lewandowski taking the headlines with seven goals to his name already. His teammate Raphina sits on five goals along with the aforementioned Mbappe and Real Betis’ Giovani Lo Celso. Villarreal’s Ayoze Perez sits ahead of that trio though having netted six to date.

La Liga Relegation Odds

There aren’t too many surprises in and around the La Liga relegation favourites with the bookmakers. Leganes, Valladolid and Espanyol are all in the mix having won promotion las season whilst more established clubs such as Las Palmas and Getafe also feature in race to avoid the drop.
  • Leganes @ 6/4 (2.50)
  • Las Palmas @ 13/8 (2.63)
  • Valladolid @ 2/1 (3.00)
  • Getafe @ 2/1 (3.00)
  • Espanyol @ 9/4 (3.25)

Betting Tips: All-Time Top Scorers in La Liga

Lionel Messi leads this category with a total of 474 goals for Barcelona in the Spanish La Liga. It’s tough to beat his record, especially for newer players who don’t have that many years of experience. The second-best goalscorer is Cristiano Ronaldo, with 311 La Liga goals. His attempt at beating the Messi record was cut short when he moved to play for Juventus in 2018. The third player in the rankings is Telmo Zarra, with 251 goals while playing for Athletic Bilbao for 15 seasons in the 1940s and 1950s. The next players in the ranking are as follows:
  • Hugo Sánchez
  • Raúl
  • Alfredo Di Stéfano
  • César Rodríguez
  • Quini
  • Pahiño
  • Edmundo Suárez
All of them played for different teams except for Raúl, who is considered one of the best players in Real Madrid History. He left his mark on the La Liga with the impressive amount of two hundred and twenty-eight goals from 1994 to 2010.

What is the Spanish La Liga, and what are its rules?

The full name of the Spanish La Liga is Campeonato Nacional de Liga de Primera División. It’s the top professional football league in Spain for men. It was founded over 90 years ago, and 20 teams participate. The teams who get relegated from La Liga compete in Segunda División. Of the sixty-two teams that participated in the league since it was created, only nine of them have been crowned champions. The La Liga is usually played from August to May. Some big matches include:
  • Barcelona vs Real Madrid (El Clasico)
  • Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona
  • Real Madrid vs Valencia
  • Sevilla vs Betis
  • Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid (Madrid Derby)

Our Final Conclusion

With Real Madrid strengthening their squad from a position of strength, this season feels like it’s more of a case of how early they will the title rather than whether or not they do get over the line. That said, there is a lot of interesting player plots to look forward too and they’re far from limited to Los Blancos.
