The LaLiga season started getting heated, as the current leaders have surprised everyone with their impressive level till matchday 4. It is due to that strong starting push that Barcelona leads already by four points, having a perfect four wins record, with Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, and Villarreal all tied behind them at eight points.
It’s too early in the season to start worrying about any teams in relegation danger, so we have to focus on the current fight for the top, as the leaders are looking not to allow the defending champions to get close to the top.

Los Bermellones aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Leganes and are surely capable of matching Villarreal in front of home fans. Pablo Maffeo has joined the likes of Mateu Morey and Javi Liabres in the recovery room, with Antonio Sanchez likely to step up.
The Yellow Submarine, on the other hand, made a promising start to the season, with the team beating both Sevilla and Villarrealwhile sharing the spoils with Atletico Madrid and Valencia. Midfielder Pape Gueye is banned for the visiting side.
The visitors are eager to stay in the Champions League berth, but beating Mallorca at Balearic Islands is easier said than done. This is the reason that after taking everything into account, we think that this clash might end up as a draw.

The Basques have yet to find their best form in the new LaLiga campaign, but they should never be written off when playing in San Sebastian. However, ahome win should not be considered, as key player Mikel Oyarzabal is banned from the match.
Los Blancos, on the other hand, have already dropped four points in the new LaLiga season, but they gave fans some cheer when marketee signing Kylian Mbappe scored a brace against Real Betis.
The good news for the visiting side is that influential midfielder Jude Bellingham has overcome his injury. Eder Militao, Aurelien Tchoumeni, Dani Ceballos, and Eduardo Camavinga remain in the recovery room.
Real Madrid should have a fairly easy time scoring enough to bag the three points they need here.

There will be fireworks when Girona and Barcelona square off against each other in the Catalan derby on Sunday.
Girona continues where they left last season, and it seems as if summer signings have already adapted to the new surroundings. A man to watch in the home team will be former Braga attacker Abel Ruiz, who has found his goal-scoring touch, while both Jastin Garcia and Ricard Artero miss out with injuries.
Barca, on the other hand, rolled over Valladolid 7-0 before the international break. You should bear in mind that 12 goals in total have been netted in the previous two meetings between the Catalan outfits. Fermin Lopez, Marc Bernal, Andreas Christensen, Ronald Araujo, Frenkie De Jong, and Gavi are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side.
With both teams doing pretty well here, it is all about Barcelona’s strong output to keep things the way they have been and scoring them another win to keep their top place intact.
Girona vs. Barcelona Betting Pick: Barcelona

Los Rojiblancos did well to beat Athletic Bilbao on the road before the international break, and, as a result, the odds for a home win have been dropping.
Midfielder Pablo Barrios misses out with injury, but, he should be the only absentee in the home team this time. Summer signing Julian Alvarez will once again lead the line for the hosts.
Los Che, on the other hand, is no longer considered one of the teams to beat in LaLiga, collecting only one point in total from a possible twelve.
Former Valencia midfielder Ruben Baraja can’t count on Dani Gomez, Hugo Duro, Jose Gaya, Rafa Mir, Jaume Domenech, and Mouctar Diakhaby for Sunday’s showdown.
Over the years, Atletico have turned their “Metropolitano” into a real fortress, so anything but a routine home victory would be a big surprise.
Atletico Madrid vs. Valencia Betting Pick: Atletico Madrid
