Top LaLiga Games to Wager On the Weekend (Dec. 21st – 22nd)
Deportivo Alaves +1 ½ -172 vs. Villareal CF -1 ½ +129
- When: Tuesday, Dec. 21
A couple of squads moving in opposite directions hit the pitch in this. Deportivo Alaves has lost 3-of-4 with a draw. Alaves is on a 2-match losing streak, with an 0-2 loss to Rayo Vallecano in their last and a surprising 2-1 loss to Linares Deportivo on Dec. 14.
Villareal has won 4 straight. Each victory impressed, especially, the 3-2 win against Serie A power Atalanta in a Champions League match on Dec. 9. Villareal offers better odds than they should to win this by at least 2.
Soccer Pick: Villareal
FC Barcelona +190 vs. Sevilla FC +140
- When: Tuesday, Dec. 21
On Dec. 18, Barca beat Elche 3-2 to notch their first victory in their last 5. Barcelona had lost 3-of-4 with a draw. One of the losses was an 0-3 beat down they suffered at the feet of Bayern Munich in a Champions League match.
Sevilla fell to Barca in the last head-to-head. However, Messi played in that match. Not only that, but Sevilla is on fire, having won 4-of-5, including beating Atletico Madrid 2-1 on Dec. 18. The odds make the home team the play.
Soccer Pick: Sevilla
Atletico Madrid -172 vs. Granada CF +480
- When: Wednesday, Dec. 22
Atletico should win this, but it’s tough to back the road favorite versus any opponent. Atletico has lost 3-of-4. The 3-1 victory against Porto in a Champions League match on Dec. 7 impressed.
Since then, AM has dropped matches to Real Madrid by 2 goals and to Sevilla by 1. Granada heads into this after beating up Mallorca 4-1 on Dec. 19.
Not only that, but Granada hung with Atletico in the last head-to-head. The road chalk beat the home team by a 2-1 score. At +480, Granada offers overlay odds. They’re worth a long look to hand Atletico a loss.
Soccer Pick: Granada
Real Madrid +117 vs. Athletic Bilbao +225
- When: Wednesday, Dec. 22
Before taking on Betis on Dec. 19, Bilbao had lost 3-of-5 with a couple of draws. The home team beat Betis 3-2. The victory could be a sign Bilbao is back to playing their best soccer.
But on Wednesday, AB takes on the top team in La Liga’s Primera Division. Real shows 4 wins and a draw in their last 5. The draw happened in their last match versus Cadiz.
Don’t expect the draw to throw Real off their game. On Wednesday, RM will get back to beating their rivals.
Soccer Pick: Real Madrid
