La Liga Best Bets: Wednesday May 11th

Sam Ingram

There’s a clamour to get points on the board everywhere you look in La Liga. On Wednesday night, it’s the same again, as a depleted midweek fixture schedule has its say in the run-in. Corners, Goals, and a lack of the latter are pencilled in as our go-to selections for Wednesday.

La Liga Best Bets: Wednesday May 11th

Alavés vs Espanyol: Over 9.5 Asian Corners (2.00)
Sevilla vs Mallorca: Sevilla 2+ Goals (1.83)
Osasuna vs Getafe: Getafe/Draw Double Chance & Under 4 Goals (1.66)

La Liga Treble Odds: 6.11

Alavés vs Espanyol Best Bet

Weds, 11th May, 20:00 (UK time)

Deportivo Alavés enter Wednesday evening needing a win. Another three added to their 28-points haul still leaves them perilously adrift, but it provides a faint heartbeat to their La Liga survival.

Whether they have enough to overcome a travelling Espanyol outfit is a different matter. The visitors will be safe for another year unless there’s a drastic turn of events, placing the onus on Alavés to turn up and take the mantle.

The hosts prop up the table for good reason – often devoid of ideas in attack coupled with a defensive unit that concedes far too many goals. In Spain’s top flight this season, Alavés concede 1.71 goals per90 on average.

However, the Estadio de Mendizorroza has seen its fair share of points collected. From 17 outings on home soil, Alavés collected 22 points – a total placing them in 16th when solely taking home form into account.

With the above in mind, expect the Basque Country outfit to have a good go up against Espanyol. In the hope that Alavés piles on the pressure from early in the match, I’m backing that the need to attack will translate into corners forced.

In what should help the proposed selection, Alavés rank as the worst team in the league for corners conceded at home. The 6.06 total only just surpasses Espanyol in second, who ship an almost-identical 6.00 per90.

I should note that at 3.35 per90, the onlookers at the Mendizorroza see their side take the fewest corners in the division on average. This figure should, in theory, increase given what’s at stake.

Selection: Over 9.5 Asian Corners
Best Odds: 2.00 (bet365)
Stakes: 10/10

Osasuna vs Getafe Best Bet

Weds, 11th May, 18:00 (UK time)

This match-up is not usually one for the ages. It’s far from La Liga’s showpiece event. With two goals in the last five meetings dating back to 2019, we may not see goals by the dozen. Two 1-0 results, both in favour of Getafe, make up the two-goal output.

At the Estadio El Sadar between Osasuna and Getafe, two 0-0 bore draws in the last two head-to-heads provide the backdrop to Wednesday night’s showdown. Speaking of goalless shutouts, A couple of 0-0s against Rayo Vallecano and Real Betis have followed each other for Getafe.

Away from past meetings, Osasuna have little to play for this term. The Pamplona natives find themselves in a mid-table position that leaves little interest at either end.

Getafe resides in a superior spot in the relegation scrap, five points away from trouble. Not yet safe and still worryingly looking over their shoulder, the focus will be on not losing, or conceding, for that matter.

Both sides’ match totals provide some reassurance here, too. This season, Osasuna averages a match goals total of 2.29 at home. Whilst playing away from home, Getafe boasts a lowly 1.88.

This Getafe outfit should have enough to avoid defeat against an Osasuna side without much skin left in the game this term.

Selection: Getafe/Draw Double Chance & Under 4 Goals
Best Odds: 1.66 (bet365)
Stakes: 10/10

Sevilla vs Mallorca Best Bet

Weds, 11th May, 19:30 (UK time)

Here we have another two teams who could do with a victory for differing reasons. Yet, when viewing how both have navigated the season, Sevilla away has come at the worst time for Mallorca.

Mallorca haven’t mustered three points on their travels once this calendar year. A 91st-minute Takefusa Kubo strike sealed their last – a shock 1-2 December win over Atléti.

It’s Mallorca’s away form that has them flirting with the drop. Just two wins away from home all season whilst conceding 38 goals from 17 matches suggests Wednesday evening should be a slog.

Contrastingly for Wednesday’s fixture, Sevilla’s top four finish is built on their home form. So, as Julen Lopetegui’s men welcome a poorly-travelled Mallorca, it’s challenging to make a case for the relegation-threatened side from the Balearic Islands.

Sevilla top the La Liga stats for two or more goals scored in fixtures this season. The suggested pick has landed in 12 of 17 matches in Sevilla, one more than Real Madrid, who sit in second.

Mallorca will likely attack in an attempt to nick a goal or two. But, for Mallorca’s sake, I fear that this will afford Sevilla the opportunities to pick them off at will.

Selection: Sevilla 2+ Goals
Best Odds: 1.83 (bet365)
Stakes: 10/10

WHAT IS A LA LIGA ACCA?

A La Liga acca is an accumulator bet, a type of bet that consists of several selections across different matches that are combined together into one single bet. An acca usually. consists of at least four selections but many more can be included. There will be odds for the single bet as a whole which is calculated by multiplying the odds of all of the selections. A La Liga acca is one of the most popular ways to bet. This is the case because they can create potentially massive odds for a small stake. Many punters choose to create La Liga accas which is what we have created here. If one of these selections loses then the La Liga acca will lose. This type of bet needs every selection to win in order to succeed.
