Real Sociedad v VillarrealSky Sports Mix, 7.15pm
Excellent home form last season has gifted Real Sociedad a Europa League campaign and the high-flying hosts can continue where they left off with victory over Villarreal.

Sociedad lost just four league games on their own patch last term – which included defeating Atletico and holding Barcelona – and they may better prepared than revamped Villarreal, who lost 1-0 in their opener at Levante.

Real Betis v Celta VigoSky Sports red button, 9pm
Betis will not have been too disheartened by Sunday's 2-0 loss at Barcelona and can chalk up their first points of the season in La Liga by beating Celta Vigo in Andalusia.

This fixture looks a tricky first away trip for Celta, who twice gave up the lead in their 3-2 loss at home to Real Sociedad.
