Villarreal and Espanyol will play in the 11th round of the Spanish Primera. The guests have not won six matches in a row and even dropped out of the cup. Will it be possible to interrupt this series in the away match on October 30? The answer is in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Villarreal
Current form
Villarreal is still far from the desired position in the Primera standings. The club is still only in tenth place and five points behind the top 6. The hosts are also playing in the Champions League, where they recently managed to produce a bright away match with Liverpool (3:4), which ended in defeat. After that, the yellow submarine beat Valencia in the Example (2:1), and the modest Manacor was defeated in the Spanish Cup (5:0).
Disqualifications and injuries
Ahomakh and Saliba will not play due to injuries, and Guye is suspended.
Interesting betting trends
The hosts have scored ten goals in the last three matches.
The last seven face-to-face matches ended with victories for Villarreal
Espanyol, after a prolonged series of setbacks, found itself in the relegation zone. The club is in 18th place and one point behind Getafe from the safe zone. In the last two rounds, the Catalan team suffered defeats from Atletico Madrid (0:1) and Racing (1:2). Even in the cup, the guests managed to concede - the club could not cope with Sestao from the fourth division on the road. The cup match ended in defeat in extra time with a total score of 3:4.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hofre and Garcia will miss the match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
In the last six matches, the team has not won a single victory.
Both teams have scored in Espanyol's last four away matches.
Espanyol failed to achieve a result in the previous matches, but they managed to score in almost all the matches. In the away match against Villarreal, the club will also fight for victory and will certainly be able to realize at least one scoring opportunity. But the hosts are also very good at other people's gates: they even managed to score three goals against Liverpool. We believe that both opponents will score in this match.
Villarreal still has a lot to strive for, because the tenth place is not what the hosts expected. At the same time, there is little to blame for the players, because recently the yellow submarine has lost only to Liverpool and Real Madrid. Espanyol is much weaker, besides it is in a state of crisis. Most likely, it will be possible to beat such an opponent without any problems.
Our betting tip is an Asian handicap (-1.5) for Villarreal in 2.08
Betting on corners
The status of the home team and high ambitions allow Villarreal to play from a position of strength in a duel with an opponent like Espanyol. The hosts must outperform the competition in all major indicators, including the number of corners.
Our betting tip is an Asian head start (-3.5) on corners at Villarreal in 2.03
