Real Valladolid - Granada betting tips and odds

With bookies pricing a home win at 2.20, it’s clear the match may yet go either way. The hosts have a distinct advantage, of course, but both a draw and an away win are quite possible outcomes.

The odds are stacked heavily against Granada here, and we can’t see them winning this match. Real Valladolid are heavily favoured by most betting predictions – so much so that an away bet is priced at around 3.65.

Though Real Valladolid are here after an away defeat in the previous round against Barcelona , that performance does not offer an accurate assessment of their form. They played as visitors against an overwhelmingly stronger opponent, so perhaps the draw in the first half and 1:0 loss aren’t too bad.

The 0:3 result of Granada’s home match against Villarreal was expected by most online sportsbooks. Granada were clear underdogs at the start of the game, and it quickly went south for them.

The hosts will be looking to improve the unexciting impression they left in recent away games. The past two went by with barely any goals to speak of in terms of both goals scored and goals conceded.

Based on their recent performance, Granada’s largest issue seems to be defence, especially in away games. With 7 conceded goals in their 3 previous visiting matches, Over 3.5 Goals markets seem like a solid betting option.

As the season advances, the bottom-placed teams will be scrambling to get out of the relegation zone. Valladolid are 3 points above these teams, but the battle is far from over.

The two teams already met this season in the La Liga, with The Pucelanos taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

Before going for any betting predictions, we need to make note of the overall high number of prior injuries. Both sides have been hit: Raúl García, Shon Weissman, Marcos de Sousa for the hosts, and Dimitri Foulquier, Neyder Lozano, Carlos Neva for the visitors. Needless to say, this may impact the teams’ performance.

Betting on a Draw is likely to be your best option, though it’s a relatively risky wager. It offers decent value with the 3.40 odds, though, which can be found at top online bookmakers such as bwin.
