Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest we don't have an obvious winner here, but the evidence does point towards the conclusion that A.Madrid and Villarreal will find the net twice at least between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Diego Pablo Simeone or Iñigo Pérez Soto has suffered the frustration of many 0-0s lately either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with top odds of 1.30 equating to about a 75% probability.
