Now, let’s take a closer look at some football betting angles for Sunday’s La Liga fixture:
Barcelona v Villarreal – Sunday, 6pm
- Barcelona claimed their 28th Spanish top-flight title on Thursday evening with a 2-0 victory away at their rivals Espanyol, a game in which the opposing staff turned on the sprinklers at full-time to stop Barcelona celebrating their success, it’s not the first time we’ve seen that over the years.
- With Hansi Flick’s side receiving the trophy at full-time on Sunday evening in front of their home faithful, it’s bound to be a party atmosphere with Barca looking to put on another show, they’ve scored at least two goals in each of their last six games across all competitions, with Lamine Yamal stealing the show throughout.
- Barcelona won the reverse fixture between these two sides back in September, a 5-1 victory on the road was the start of something special from Hansi Flick’s side, the last three meetings between these two have produced at least six goals, let’s hope for more of the same in this one.
——————————– - Villarreal look set to confirm their place in the UEFA Champions League for next season, the Yellow Submarine sit fifth in La Liga prior to this weekends action with a five point gap to Real Betis, even defeat here could confirm UCL football if Betis fail to beat Atleti.
- Marcelino’s side head to Barcelona in terrific form, having won each of their last four league games, they haven’t won five La Liga games in a row since 2016 and despite a 5-1 thumping early on in the season, they’ll look to replicate their performance from January last year, beating Barcelona 5-3 here.
- Despite now having nothing to play for, i think we can expect another thrilling performance from Barcelona in this one and I’d be very surprised if we don’t see goals, with both sides first and third respectively in the Over/Under 2.5 table for La Liga games this season.
Prediction: Match Result and 4 or More Goals in the Match – Barcelona, Barcelona 4-2 Villarreal.
