Villarreal vs Valencia Prediction & Betting tips
In the previous one, there is no clear favorite on this occasion, since both teams are skilled and competitive in their actions. For this reason and knowing that the “Yellow Submarine” will seek to add their first points in the Madrigal, we believe that an equality is the most interesting result to bet. Remember that the squad “che” is still difficult to overcome as a visitor thanks to the work of coach Marcelino. He paints to be an intense duel in the midfield, beyond the defensive errors committed by the local against Girona and Real Sociedad.
Villarreal:
The “Yellow Submarine” played against Scottish Rangers for the Europa League (draw 2-2 after winning 1-0 at the initial stage). In the Spanish tournament, he beat Leganés 0-1 in Butarque and added his first victory in the championship. Thanks to these 3 points that registered, he cut a streak of 3 games without winning in the competition (1 draw and 2 losses). These days, he has 4 points in the general table, his goal being to keep climbing positions in the general table. Despite this irregular start, the team is still well-dressed and well-worked by coach Javi Calleja.
As a local in the Madrigal, Villarreal has played two matches in total, which have been negative for their league aspirations (defeat 1-2 against Real Sociedad after winning 1-0 and falling 0-1 against Girona). For this duel it is expected that the “Yellow Submarine” try to be balanced in its actions, since it has defended badly. Of course, seek to take advantage of the field factor to balance the balance and add his first home win.
Valencia:
The picture “che” played against Valencia against Juventus on Wednesday for the Champions (defeat 0-2 after losing 0-1 the first time). In the Spanish tournament, he equaled 0-0 against Betis in Mestalla, adding his fourth game without winning in the competition (3 draws and 1 loss). The objective of the team is to cut this negative streak and recover the lost confidence. It is still a well-worked and well-worked eleven, despite this irregular garter belt. If goals are involved, he has scored 3 and has given 5 on his fence, missing a certain balance in his actions.
As a visitor, Valencia has played two games so far, achieving only 1 point out of 6 possible. It comes from losing 2-0 against Espanyol and to equal 2-2 against Levante in the zonal derby. For this outing it is expected that the boys of Marcelino take their precautions, since they will face a rival dampened by nature. Of course, its objective is to take advantage of its highest individual hierarchy to attack and score. The ideal is to exploit the defensive flaws of his rival, which have been noticed a lot in these early dates of the Santander League.
In the last 4 and a half years, Villarreal and Valencia have faced each other 5 times in the Madrigal. These were the scores of those matches: Victory 0-1 of Valencia in May 2014 for a friendly club, win 1-3 of Valencia in November 2014, victory 1-0 of Villarreal in December 2015, win 0-2 in January of 2017 and victory 1-0 of Villarreal in May 2018. Apparently, both teams have alternated the victories each time they met in the Madrigal. There is no clear favorite this time.
