The opening match of the 2020-21 La Liga campaign will take place at Estadio Municipal de Ipurua on Saturday afternoon with Eibar welcoming Celta Vigo.

Eibar finished 14th in Spain's top flight last term, while Celta ended the season in 17th, only just surviving in the league as they claimed one more point than Leganes in 18th.

We say: Eibar 1-1 Celta Vigo

Both of these teams will be eyeing three points on the opening weekend, but we are struggling to separate them. Celta have actually only won two of their last 31 away La Liga matches, although we do fancy the visitors to pick up a share of the spoils on Saturday afternoon.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Granada and Athletic Bilbao will open their respective 2020-21 La Liga campaigns on Saturday evening with the pair due to lock horns at at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes.

Granada finished seventh in Spain's top flight last term and are in Europa League qualifying action next week, while Athletic ended last season in 11th spot in the table.

We say: Granada 2-1 Athletic Bilbao

Granada were excellent when the two sides locked horns at the end of last season, and we are finding it difficult to back against Martinez's side once again. Athletic have not been able to freshen their squad this summer, but Granada are likely to have some new faces on show, and we fancy the hosts to triumph.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Cadiz vs. Osasuna (Saturday, 8.00pm)

Back in La Liga for the first time since the 2005-06 campaign, Cadiz will kick off their top-flight season with a home match against Osasuna on Saturday night.

Cadiz secured promotion back to this level courtesy finishing second in the Segunda Division last term, while Osasuna enjoyed an impressive 2019-20 campaign, claiming 10th spot in the table.

We say: Cadiz 1-2 Osasuna

Cadiz have been handed a tough start as Osasuna proved their class during the 2019-20 campaign. The hosts will be determined to start their campaign with a strong result, but we fancy Osasuna to claim all three points on Saturday night courtesy of a narrow success.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.
