Villarreal – Leganes SOCCER PICKS

Another match for this day 27 in this Santander League, meeting between Villarreal and Leganés at the Ceramics Stadium. We need the local team to score 2 goals or more.

Villarreal occupy the 8th position with 38 points in the fight to occupy a position entitled to Europe for the coming season while his rival comes in a very different situation, since he is in 19th place with 20 points in the relegation zone and whose fight will be to maintain the category.

Justified favoritism for the whole of the Valencian Community and that I believe should be even clearer. Templates with different levels and objectives to which is added the withdrawal of its two maximum offensive references in the Lega as In Nesyri and Braithwaite. Villarreal has lowered its league start performance a bit but it is still a team that will fight for the high places.

Villarreal is the 3rd top scorer in the league with 43 goals, only behind Barça and Madrid, averaging 1.65 goals per game. That average rises when he plays at home to 2.08 goals per game, so he meets the marked line. A lot of power up with players like Alcacer, Gerard Moreno, Cazorla or Moi Gómez. Of the 12 crazy games he has achieved the necessary goals in 7 of them.

On the part of the Leganés, if it is true that despite being one of the worst league teams, it is not one of the ones that receives the most goals. 5th in the league with 38 goals received, averaging 1.46 goals per game and with a slight increase as a visitor to 1.58. His game is based on a good defensive structure with 5 defenses but even before a very offensive opponent I think he will suffer a lot. From 12 outings, in 5 they have received 2 or more goals.

In the first leg in Butarque, a blunt 0-3 was taken. In addition, the game played at Villarreal’s home in the last 4 seasons has ended with an identical 2-1 result. We see that h2h comes to us.

Therefore, Villarreal superiority to take the victory in this match in which I also believe that he will not be left in just 1 goals despite the fact that Leganés is such a defensive team, so we are going for those goals the locals.
