Villarreal Athletic Club betting prediction

The home team is currently in the 5^th position of the league, with 47 points won, after 14 wins, 5 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Atlético Madrid, by (2‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against Málaga, by (1‑0). In the last 10 home league matches Villarreal has a record of 5 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, so they have won 16 points out of 30 possible. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (5 out of 14 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. There is a tendency for goals in their home matches, as 12 of the last 14 for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. They have conceded the first goal in 12 of their 30 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 2.

Villarreal comes for this match after a defeat at Malaga ground, by 1-0, putting an end to the two victories in the Spanish league. In spite of the irregular stage they’re going through, the home team follows in the 5ª position with 47 points added. In this home match, it’s expectable that the coach Javier Calleja will play in the usual 4-4-2 privileging the ball possession and the paused attacks: Castillejo and Soriano are the main responsible for organizing and creating the offensive process. Still at the individual level we highlight Carlos Bacca, being this the best scorer with 9 signed goals. For this match, the coach won’t count on Soriano and Manu Trigueros, all injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Sergio Asenjo, Antonio Rukavina, Jaume Costa, Daniele Bonera, Álvaro González, Javi Fuego, Manu Trigueros, Pablo Fornals, Rodri Hernández, Carlos Bacca, Enes Ünal.
Coach: U. Emery Etxegoien.
