Predictions for the La Liga Matchday 29
1) Real Sociedad vs. Valladolid
| Odds not available |
The Real Sociedad team will take on Valladolid for the Matchday 29 of the 2024-25 La Liga Showdown. This matchup will take place on March 29, 2025 (Saturday) at Anoeta Stadium. Currently, the Sociedad team is in 12th place in the La Liga Standings, and Valladolid is at the bottom with just 16 points.
Previous Clashes:
Real Sociedad: The Real Sociedad team’s recent matchup ended with a 2-2 draw against the Rayo Vallecano, in which Martin Zubimendi and Arkaitz Mariezkurrena netted each one goal for the Sociedad team. In this matchup, the Sociedad side maintained about 44% possessions, where four of their eight shots entered the target.
Valladolid: The Valladolid team enters this matchup with a 0-1 loss to Celta Vigo. In that loss, Valladolid had 39% possession of the ball, and only two of its five shots entered the target.
Predictions:
When these two teams last faced off, the game concluded in a goalless draw. Looking at their recent form, Sociedad is in much better shape than Valladolid. On the other hand, Valladolid is enduring one of their most challenging seasons and is dangerously close to the relegation zone. Many of Valladolid’s games have ended with either a single goal or no goals. This makes it likely that they’ll struggle to match or outscore Sociedad in this matchup. This encounter puts Sociedad in a strong position to claim victory.
2) Espanyol vs. Atletico Madrid
| Odds not available |
Matchday 29 of the La Liga Showdown will feature a battle between Espanyol and the Atletico Madrid team. This matchup will take place on March 29, 2025 (Saturday) at RCDE Stadium. The two teams are approaching this clash from opposite ends of the spectrum, with Atletico Madrid holding the third spot in the 2024-25 La Liga standings while Espanyol sits in 15th place.
Previous Clashes:
Espanyol: Espanyol lost to Mallorca with a 2-1 score in their recent La Liga matchup. In that clash, the Espanyol team maintained about 63% possessions, and seven of their 20 shots entered the target.
Atletico Madrid: Atletico Madrid enters this matchup with a disappointing 2-4 loss against the Barcelona team, in which Julian Alvarez and Alexander Sorloth netted each goal. The Madrid side has had 33% possessions, and only two of their seven shots entered the target.
Predictions:
Espanyol struggles to maintain consistency, alternating between wins and losses, with most of their matches ending in a single goal. Their offensive lineup must strengthen its efforts to improve scoring, while their solid defense shows promise in helping the team perform better. On the other hand, Atletico Madrid approaches this matchup after suffering two consecutive defeats in La Liga. Despite their losses, they found the back of the net but fell short due to weaknesses in their defensive game. As a result, this clash between Atletico Madrid and Espanyol seems slightly tilted in favor of the Madrid side.
3) Deportivo Alavés vs. Rayo Vallecano
| Odds not available |
The Rayo Vallecano and Alaves teams will play each other on Matchday 29 of the 2024-25 La Liga Showdown. This matchup will take place on March 29, 2025, at Mendizorroza. While the Rayo Vallecano team is in ninth place in the La Liga Standings, the Alaves are in 17th place with 27 points.
Previous Clashes:
Deportivo Alavés: The Alaves team is coming off a 2-2 draw against Las Palmas, where Toni Martinez and Jon Guridi scored each goal. In that battle, the Alaves team had only 38% possessions, turning three of their nine shots into the target.
Rayo Vallecano: The Vallecano side also ended its recent matchup with a 2-2 draw against the Real Sociedad team. Oscar Trejo and Pedro Diaz scored goals for the Vallecano team.
Predictions:
Alaves and Rayo Vallecano enter this matchup with outcomes identical to their previous games. Recent performances highlight that both teams have struggled to find their best form. Rayo Vallecano recorded three draws and two losses in their last five matches, while Alaves managed three draws, one loss, and a single win. Despite this, Rayo Vallecano’s offensive play appears slightly stronger. As a result, this matchup might conclude in a draw or see Rayo Vallecano narrowly securing the victory.
4) Real Madrid vs. Leganes
| Odds not available |
Real Madrid welcomes Leganes for Matchday 29 of the 2024-25 La Liga Showdown. The game will occur on Saturday, March 29, 2025, at the iconic Santiago Bernabéu. The teams enter the matchup from opposite ends of the standings, with Real Madrid holding the second position and Leganes occupying the third-to-last spot.
Previous Clashes:
Real Madrid: The Real Madrid team defeated Villarreal in their recent matchup and ended the game with a 1-2 score. In that matchup, rockstar Kylian Mbappe netted both goals for the Real Madrid team.
Leganes: Leganes scored twice in their last match against Real Betis but ultimately lost 3-2. Dani Raba shone for Leganes, netting both goals for his team.
Predictions:
In their last encounter during the Quarter-final of the Copa del Rey, Real Madrid secured a narrow 3-2 victory over Leganes. Both teams now approach this clash clearly, understanding each other’s strengths and weaknesses. Real Madrid has consistently delivered exceptional performances on offense and defense, reflected in their strong position in the La Liga standings. On the contrary, Leganes is teetering on the brink of relegation this season. Out of 28 matches played, they have only secured six wins. With a fragile defense often allowing opponents to dominate, Leganes is expected to face significant challenges. Therefore, this matchup strongly favors Real Madrid.
5) Getafe vs. Villarreal

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Getafe v Villarreal | 30 Mar 25 13:00 | 3.400 | 3.100 | 2.300 |

Predictions:
Villarreal is on a two-game losing streak, having scored only one goal. Despite these losses, Villarreal has maintained a balanced performance on both ends of the field and is expected to continue that approach in this match. On the other hand, Getafe enters the matchup riding a two-game winning streak. While Getafe boasts a more potent offense, they must improve their defensive efforts to achieve better results.

6) Barcelona vs. Girona

|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Predictions:
Barcelona showcases one of the strongest squads in the La Liga Showdown, featuring prolific forwards like Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, Ferran Torres, and Lamine Yamal.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Valencia v Mallorca | 30 Mar 25 17:30 | 2.100 | 3.100 | 3.800 |

The last meeting between these two teams resulted in Mallorca’s 2-1 victory. Mallorca scored in their previous six clashes, highlighting their consistent offensive performance.

8) Athletic Club vs. Osasuna
| Match | Date | Home Win | Draw | Away Win | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Athletic Bilbao v Osasuna | 30 Mar 25 17:30 | 1.450 | 4.100 | 7.000 |

Osasuna: Osasuna enters this matchup after suffering a 1-2 loss to Getafe. They controlled approximately 63% of possession in that game and hit the target with four of their 12 shots.
Predictions:
In their previous meeting, Osasuna capitalized on their home-field advantage to defeat Athletic Club 3-2. However, their recent form shows they have gone five games without a win in La Liga, losing two and drawing three. Osasuna must make decisive improvements to their defensive game to achieve better results in upcoming clashes. On the other hand, Athletic Club is enjoying a strong run this season in La Liga. Their balanced performance on both offense and defense gives them a higher chance of winning this battle with two or three goals.
9) Real Betis vs. Sevilla

Real Betis excels in scoring with key players while maintaining a decent defense. Losing their last meeting with Sevilla likely motivates Real Betis to strengthen their approach in this matchup. Real Betis aims to deliver a balanced performance on both ends against Sevilla. Meanwhile, Sevilla, entering this clash with the advantage of playing at home, aims to replicate their previous success against Real Betis.
