Valencia Predicted Lineup (4-3-2-1)
| Position | Players |
| Goalkeeper | Stole Dimitrievski |
| Defenders | Unai NĂșñez, CĂ©sar TĂĄrrega, Eray Cömert, JesĂșs VĂĄzquez |
| Midfielders | Filip Ugrinic, Guido RodrĂguez, Javi Guerra |

| Attacking Midfielders | FermĂn LĂłpez, Raphinha |
| Forward | Robert Lewandowski |
Prediction:
The Valencian hosts at Valencia’s Mestalla stadium, which is one of the most difficult away venues in La Liga. Still, going into the game, Barcelona are the firm favorites. Since clinching the La Liga title, Barcelona has maintained the same regular attacking performance and consistency throughout the season. Their frontline has proven lethal for most teams all season.
Valencia itself has been showing signs of improvement at home, but is not as solid when playing against the stronger teams. Playing at Mestalla could give Valencia a boost; however, Barcelonaâs midfield dominance and finishing could be stronger than the hosts. Overall, the away team, Barcelona, should easily get a comfortable victory, with a better scoreline.
The pick: Barcelona

Prediction:
The La Liga clash happens between Villarreal and Atlético Madrid at Estadio de la Cermica. This is one of the most evenly matched and tactical games of the weekend. Villarreal have been very strong at home this season, challenging even the best teams. But they have lost the previous two La Liga matches, which has dented their momentum. Whereas Atlético Madrid had back-to-back wins in the last two matches, showing their strong momentum and consistency.
AtlĂ©ticoâs players are well-organized, and a counterattack will give them a strong advantage in a very close matchup like this. AtlĂ©tico Madridâs experience and defensive strength may help them secure an important away victory.
The pick: Atlético Madrid
Real Betis vs Levante
Date: 23 May 2026 (Saturday)
Time: 03:00 PM ET | 12:00 PM PT | 12:30 AM IST (Next day)
Venue: Estadio de La Cartuja

| Midfielders | Pablo MartĂnez, Vicente Iborra, Giorgi Kochorashvili |
| Attacking Midfielders | Ivån Romero, José Luis Morales |
| Forward | Carlos EspĂ |
Prediction:
The La Liga game set between Real Betis and Levante at Estadio de La Cartuja. This game will probably be a win for Real Betis, who have shown better overall performances. Playing at home can give them even more confidence.
Although Levante has shown consistency, it could be difficult for them to compete against a high-positioned team like Real Betis. Levante, in 15th position and facing a 5th-placed opponent, Real Betis, shows how challenging itâs going to be for Levante. However, Levante can cause problems with a quick counterattack. But Real Betis clearly has a better overall balance, and as a result, they should get a comfortable win.
The pick: Real Betis

The concluding day of the 2025-26 La Liga season, this final matchday will be full of thrills. Many teams want to complete their seasons on a strong note.
