Predictions for the 30th round of La Liga, April 3-6
This preview compiles predictions for the matches of the 30th round of the Spanish Championship. You can view all football predictions in the football section, and the full list of predictions for the Spanish Championship on the La Liga Predictions page. It will be interesting to see how the international break has affected the giants and whether they will start losing points en masse.
Rayo Vallecano – Elche
In the first round of the current championship, the "bees" suffered a humiliating defeat from the "green-striped" – 0:4. It is important to note that now several key factors play in favor of Iñigo Pérez's team. Firstly, Rayo Vallecano is in excellent form and has managed to pull away from the relegation zone. Meanwhile, Elche is experiencing a significant decline in performance – from a team fighting for European competition spots, they have turned into participants in the survival race. Not once in the current Spanish Primera campaign have Eder Sarabia's men won away.

Bet: Rayo Vallecano to win
Real Sociedad – Levante
Levante fans were hardly pleased with the international break – their favorites had gained good form and demonstrated a series of 4 matches without defeats. Now, the trip to San Sebastián seems like a daunting challenge – the "royals" have recovered and are ready to finish the season with heads held high. Interestingly, in 2026, Real Sociedad has not lost at their home stadium. The "frogs" have only once in the last 9 encounters at the "Reale Arena" managed to secure the maximum number of points. Our editorial team predicts a home victory.

Mallorca – Real Madrid
Any loss of points at the tail end of the season will dash the "whites'" hopes of winning the national championship. The trip to "Iberostar" does not promise an easy walk but promises intriguing football with a lot of tactical maneuvers from both sides. Note that in 6 of the last 7 head-to-head encounters, the "islanders" have not lost by more than 1 goal. The change of head coach has also positively impacted the internal club situation – Martin Demichelis quickly found common ground with the players and has not yet made drastic changes to the team's tactical structure. This will help in the upcoming Saturday.

Bet: Mallorca with a handicap (+1.5)
Betis – Espanyol
The Parrots are in dire need of positive emotions – a long series of no wins not only has a negative impact on the standings, but also entails mental problems within the team. The last away victory of Espanyol dates back to the end of 2025. In parallel with this, it is important to take into account that Betis has not conceded at home for almost 4 months – Manuel Pellegrini has established a strong connection between the team and the fans. In 9 out of 10 recent matches involving Espanyol, the “parrots” have conceded at least 2 goals. At the same time, the “Heliopolitans” have scored at least 2 goals in 3 out of 4 previous head-to-head matches. We expect a high level of scoring from the hosts.

Atletico – Barcelona
At the end of Saturday's program in the Spanish Primera, we are in for the main match of the round. Although the "Colchoneros" have not been serious contenders for the championship title for quite some time, they are capable of hindering the "Blaugrana" from smoothly approaching the coveted trophy. Atletico's winning streak at the "Wanda Metropolitano" has reached 6 consecutive matches across all competitions. Meanwhile, the "Blaugrana's" away performance cannot be considered exemplary – only one victory was recorded in their last 4 games across all competitions. Fresh in memory is Atletico's recent crushing cup victory over Barcelona (4:0) in the Spanish capital.

Bet: Atletico will not lose
Getafe – Athletic
Both teams are looking to secure a spot in the top half of the league table. For the "City" team, this result would be considered a great success, whereas the absence of European competitions for the "Basques" can only be seen as a serious failure. Due to a series of unsatisfactory results, Athletic's head coach Ernesto Valverde will leave his position at the end of the season. It's worth noting that both clubs are struggling with scoring: Getafe – 0.86 goals per game, Athletic – 1.1. In the last 4 head-to-head encounters between the teams, no more than two goals were scored.

Bet: total under 2.5 goals
Valencia – Celta
Celta continue to actively fight for a place in the European cups for next season. At the moment, the wards of Claudio Giraldes retain their position within the TOP-6 of the championship, while demonstrating high-level football. It is also indicative that Celta's unbeaten streak in the framework of away confrontations has reached the mark of 7 matches in a row. However, Valencia, despite the absence of European cups, is characterized by a high degree of instability and regularly loses points even in home confrontations.

Bet: Celta will not lose
Real Oviedo – Sevilla
With each round, the chances for the "Carbayones" to save themselves are diminishing. Currently, they are 8 points behind the safe 17th position. It is equally important to note that Real Oviedo has the worst attack in the league by a large margin, scoring only 0.69 goals per game. Sevilla, despite all its instability, plays quite daring football. It's worth noting that in 9 out of the last 10 matches, the "Nervionenses" have scored at least once. Considering Real Oviedo's serious problems in various phases of the game, we anticipate this trend to continue.

Bet: Sevilla to win with a handicap (0)
Alaves – Osasuna
The "Glorious" continue to be active participants in the relegation battle, with only a 3-point gap from the danger zone. In 2026, Alaves has suffered only 2 defeats in 7 home matches. The arrival of experienced Quique Sanchez Flores at the club has been a contributing factor to improving the players' mental state. Moreover, the players are now free from a number of complex tactical instructions – the main goal is to maintain their place in the elite of Spanish football. Both Alaves and Osasuna focus on keeping their own goals safe, so a goal fest in such a tense encounter is not expected.

Bet: total under 2.5 goals
Girona – Villarreal
The final fixture of the 30th round of the Spanish Primera will delight with a clash between two teams in good form. Michel has managed to overcome a serious crisis within his squad and create a gap from the relegation zone. Meanwhile, Marcelino has formed yet another formidable force in Spanish football – this season, the "Yellow Submarine" is highly likely to secure a spot in the Champions League. In recent matches, both clubs have been scoring well and showing structured attacking play. Our editorial team anticipates a dynamic development of events and increased activity from both sides, and also invites you to check out spain betting sites.

Bet: both teams to score (yes)
Round Summary
Of course, the most intriguing match is between Atletico and Barcelona, as the teams will meet for the third time in 2026, and next week they are set to face off in the Champions League. However, this matchup, like all others, could be full of surprises. Club football after an international break is unpredictable, so we urge you to be more cautious with your betting choices!
