Villarreal - Valencia betting tips and odds

With bookies pricing a home win at 2.02, 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.

At 4.25 betting odds, an away win would be a huge surprise and we’re positive Valencia are well aware of it themselves.

Villarreal are coming on the back of a narrow 0:1 away win against Espanyol in the previous round. Their play lacked decisiveness in the first half, but they snagged the deciding goal in the latter stages of the game.

Valencia won their previous La Liga engagement $RESULT. Their home supporters were quite happy with such an outcome despite the shaky first half. After all, neither team was a true favourite in that matchup, so the decisive victory was not easy to pull off.

Though they’re playing with a home-field advantage this time around, The Yellow Submarine ended two consecutive away games with fewer than 2 goals from either side.

The two teams last met in the previous season when Villarreal won the clash with a convincing goal difference. Their fans are expecting another clear-cut triumph and the bookmakers tend to agree.

Thankfully, Valencia will be able to bring out their roster in full force, with no players forced to the sidelines due to injury or suspension. They’re still considered underdogs, mind you, but it’s something to consider.

Playing a somewhat risky Home Win bet is the best move for this particular matchup. The odds of 2.00 are good in terms of value, but you need to keep in mind that success is by no means guaranteed.
