THE PREDICTION

Villarreal come into this on the back of an extremely impressive clutch victory away to Atalanta on Thursday in their rearranged UEFA Champions League tie to see The Yellow Submarine and UEFA Europa League holders into the UCL knockout stages. Unai Emery’s side, though, sit in the bottom-half of the table after a difficult campaign thus far with way too many draws once again blighting an Emery team. Rayo Vallecano have been exceptional themselves sitting tucked inside the European spots ahead of this weekend's round fixtures, following promotion last season. Rayo have been reliant on an almost perfect home record, though, so could find it difficult to translate that form on the road. A double chance bet in favour of the home team would appear sensible for this one.
