Elche have shipped nine goals in three games, Real Sociedad have won once in four. Preview, predicted lineups and betting tips for Monday's La Liga clash.

Two of La Liga's most toothless early-season attacks meet in Getafe, where the recent form and head-to-head data both point towards a tight, low-scoring afternoon.
La Liga runs to twenty clubs, and this page collects BetFootball's previews for selected fixtures from across the competition alongside the wider set of match content. Barcelona finished top of the 2025/26 table, and each preview here sets out a predicted scoreline, a headline tip, five further picks across other markets and a three-leg bet builder, plus team news, a predicted line-up for both sides and where to watch.
La Liga has fixed reference points that don't move with this text: the number of clubs, the side that finished top of last season's table, and the competition's own pages for the current picture. The full La Liga table and the La Liga fixtures list carry the positions, points and dates that change every round, so they sit apart from this page rather than inside it.
Each preview is put together roughly 22 hours before kick-off and updated if the team news changes before the game. A match keeps a single page from that first preview through to full time, when the same page shows how the tips landed. Every preview carries a byline, and the full list of BetFootball's writers is on the authors page.
Grading is straightforward: a flat £10 stake per tip, odds fixed at whatever was printed when the preview went up, and misses left on the record rather than removed. Voided bets are excluded, and a bet builder is scored as one bet at the combined price of its three legs. The running totals live on the tip record page, with the full grading process set out on the methodology page.
