anybody else fancying atletico? taking a look at the reverse fixture earlier this year, atletico dominated the game in Betis, and they have Sevilla among others right over they're shoulder for the last CL spot.

I see no one is touching La Liga after last night results......Someone was backing Santander in Weekend bets and that's it. Could this be the round with all top teams dropping points?
Will go for Villareal HW as it will put them in second. Hosts lost 2 away games but vs very strong opposition, expect them to take this great opportunity tonight. Should be a very tight one as guests will defend like hell. Vs opponents with such attitude in the last 2 seasons Villareal were often winning from behind, so will probably have some speculative bets as well...
I am very tempted with an Over in Levante - hosts play with no pressure at all, Getafe have far more quality, but need few more points. Guests must be devastated with the recent results in the Cups, both their goalkeepers looked shaky...
I can't see Real keeping a clean sheet tonight, that's as far as I am going atm.

yeah last night was weird!
just a quick note -i fancy mallorca away to murcia on the -0 AH, mallorca have been playing well of late and Murcia shouldnt be much of a problem even if they are fighting relegation,
fancy Depor to gte something out of a mediocre Osasuna nd over 2.5 in the Real madrdi game, as bith Real and Santander are free scoring teams, expect both teams to score because Santander should exploit Real's backline

Agrre with you Air. I had Murcia and Osasuna marked down as a lay double before I read your post.

Hope you ended up taking that over in Levante...I was tempted when I saw your post, but the stats didn't speak to it at all...but then as we all know, stats are meaningless, as is current form, missings...

Just taken Ath. Bilbao on the 0 AH for a point @ 1.88.

All the money seems to be coming in for Valencia today but I can't understand why . They'll come into this in great heart having won the Cup in midweek, but you can't get away from the fact they're in serious relegation troubles and poor form overall. Koeman's managerial record fails to convince me (he seems to be the Dutch equivalent of Bryan Robson and Graeme Souness ) and I'm gonna side with Bilbao tonight.

Bilbao have home advantage, better recent form and a slightly better H2H record. The only thing that concerns me is they have failed to hit the net as often in the last few games so I'll cover myself with the 0AH/DNB option and keep the fingers crossed.

GL all...

Good call - doesn't look like Valencia want to stay up at all - they played football for some 15-20 minutes of the whole match.

I did both picks,ATT, but only needed Santander to score at least once to make it a good day - what I won on Levante and Villareal was all on Both teams to Score in Santander, and I was so confident...
Stats? No, no more, shame I didn't follow your advice earlier, but I am learning fast - avoided my fav Over team in France Bordeaux, while all my brains were screaming for an Over in Marseille - no guts no glory I guess
