Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Saturday's La Liga fixtures, including Alaves vs. Barcelona.

Real Madrid will be looking to make it back-to-back La Liga victories when they continue their 2020-21 campaign at home to Huesca on Saturday afternoon.

Los Blancos picked up a huge three points away to Barcelona in El Clasico last weekend and are currently second in the table. Huesca, though, are yet to win this season and sit 18th in the division.

We say: Real Madrid 2-0 Huesca


Madrid will be wary of what could happen on Saturday after losing at home to Cadiz earlier this month, although we are expecting the reigning champions to triumph here. Huesca have been a difficult team to beat this season, but we are predicting a relatively routine home victory in this game.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Athletic Bilbao vs. Sevilla (Saturday, 3.15pm)

Sevilla will be looking to return to winning ways in Spain's top flight when they continue their 2020-21 campaign away to Athletic Bilbao on Saturday afternoon.

Julen Lopetegui's side suffered a 1-0 defeat to Eibar in La Liga last weekend to leave themselves in 13th spot in the table, while Athletic lost 1-0 at Osasuna as their inconsistent start continued.

We say: Athletic Bilbao 1-2 Sevilla


Sevilla will be desperate to return to winning ways in La Liga, and we can see Lopetegui's side triumphing this weekend. Athletic have so much talent, but the Basque outfit have struggled for form this season, and we are expecting Garitano's side to suffer another disappointing result here.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Osasuna vs. Atletico (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Atletico Madrid will be looking to make it three La Liga victories in a row when they travel to Pamplona to take on an in-form Osasuna on Saturday evening.

Diego Simeone's side are currently fifth in the table with 11 points to show from their five matches, while Osasuna sit seventh with 10 points from their opening six fixtures of 2020-21.

We say: Osasuna 0-1 Atletico Madrid


Osasuna will enter the match full of confidence after an impressive October, but Atletico's long unbeaten run in the league must be respected, and we just fancy Simeone's side to shade a tight match this weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Alaves vs. Barcelona (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Barcelona will be looking to return to winning ways in La Liga when they travel to Estadio de Mendizorroza to face Alaves on Saturday night.

Ronald Koeman's side suffered a 3-1 defeat in El Clasico last weekend and are currently 12th in the table, while Alaves occupy 15th position with seven points to show from their seven league games this term.

We say: Alaves 0-2 Barcelona


Barca's impressive performance against Juve would certainly have boosted their confidence, and Koeman's side will be determined to return to winning ways in the league. Alaves are capable of making it an uncomfortable 90 minutes, but we fancy the Catalan giants to secure all three points in routine fashion.

Our tipster partners are predicting an away win.
