Barcelona can cruise past road sick Malaga

Sky Sports, from midday Saturday

Levante v GetafeSky Sports Football, midday
Levante's two scalps this season have been top-ten sides Real Sociedad and Villarreal, so they can punch above their weight and both successes were at home.

Getafe have won only one of their last five but were surely buoyed by running Real Madrid close. These two were relegated together in 2016, were promoted together in May, and there isn’t much between them.

Steve Davies's recommendation
Draw
1pt 11-5 general

Key stat
Levante have failed to score in their last three matches.

Valencia v SevillaSky Sports Mix, 5.30pm
Valencia are up to second in La Liga after four successive wins and can consolidate the position by beating Sevilla at the Mestalla.

Simone Zaza is on fire for Los Che – scoring six goals in four games – and can expose the Andalusians, who were hammered 5-1 by Spartak Moscow on Tuesday.

Barcelona v MalagaSky Sports Football, 7.45pm
Barcelona dropped their first points of the season when drawing 1-1 at Atletico Madrid last Saturday but should make light work of basement boys Malaga at Camp Nou.

The Catalans are averaging three goals per game in La Liga and should dominate against a Malaga side searching for their first away points and goals of the campaign.

Dan Childs's recommendation
Barcelona to win 3-0
1pt 13-2 general

Key stat
Barcelona have scored at least three goals in each of their last five home fixtures.
