Osasuna - Villarreal betting tips and odds

Osasuna will have to put on their best performance to record a home win against Villarreal. The price of 3.05 indicates a difficult battle and that’s exactly what we expect to see in this match.

With the betting odds being what they are, this match could still go either way. Still, the fact that Villarreal are generally the weaker team makes this match an uphill battle for them.

The top online bookmakers didn’t give Osasuna much of a shot at winning their previous away match against Valencia – and they were right. Still, they maintained an even score until the second half and only lost by a 1-goal difference (1:0). This wasn’t a terrible performance considering the 4.20 odds on an away win at kick-off.

The Yellow Submarine are here on the back of a sub-par display in their previous La Liga bout, which ended in a 1:1 draw against Real Betis. They went into the match with both a home advantage and tagged as favourites, so Real Betis is probably much happier with the result.

The previous two La Liga matches Osasuna participated in ended with minimal goals on the board for either team – 1 or none, to be exact. This displays a form of consistency which can be valuable for betting markets like Under 5 Goals.

The Yellow Submarine fans have a lot of cause for concern – with 7 concessions in their latest 3 away games, their track record seems to indicate a tendency to underperform in away games.

Though most teams are entrenched in their table spots at this point, The Yellow Submarine will have to give it their all to reach the Europa League this year. With 4 points still needed, they’ll have their work cut out for them.

Villarreal already won a match against Osasuna this season while playing a home game. Even though they won’t have home-field advantage this time, they’re still considered favourites. After all, their previous victory was quite decisive and ended with a considerable lead.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.68. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
