Draw 1-1

Reason for tip

Villarreal vs Anderlecht Predictions

Tip Reasoning

  • Both teams have scored in four of Villarreal’s last five games, and in four of Anderlecht’s last six
  • Villarreal have scored in 75% of their home league games, but have also conceded in 75%
  • Villarreal average just 0.84 goals conceded per home game in the league, while Anderlecht concede an average of 1.14 away from home

Tough to split the two

Villarreal and Anderlecht played out a 1-1 draw in the first leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League tie, in a game which saw two very evenly matched sides face off. The possession was split 54/46 in favour of the Spanish side, while the two were also well matched for shots – Villarreal having eight to their opponents’ nine.

After such an evenly matched first leg, the second looks like it will tell a similar story. Another draw would take this tie into extra time, and possibly to penalties, and that might be what is needed to split the two. Defenses may well come out on top here, with Villarreal averaging 0.84 goals conceded in the league when playing at home, while Anderlecht average just 1.14 conceded per game. A correct full time score prediction of 1-1 between two evenly matched sides looks good here.

Both sides need a win

A draw in the first legs means both sides will know they need to win to go through. This could lead to them going forward and being more adventurous in search of goals as they look to avoid extra time.

As a result, a prediction for both teams to score looks likely here, with the Belgian side seeing both teams score in four of their last six, as has been the case in four of Villarreal’s last five games in all competitions. Both teams also scored in the first leg of this tie.
