Podarcis hispanica
The Common Wall Lizard does not have this pattern, it has larger pale spots which are further apart so do not appear as a continuous line.
Public park with oasis
Indeed Bayucca! The coloration varies from individual to individual, also between the sexes. The range is right, but there is also quite a bit of overlap between the two species.
I am not sure, but looking at different pictures of Hispanicus, I have the impression of slightly stronger markings in Hispanica. You have to check Hispanica as well, the range would be perfect. What I learned today about lizards? Variability!!
