Making Home Advantage Count
Spurs have a poor record against Spanish teams, with only two wins in their last 14 matches. Villarreal, on the other hand, has never beaten a Premier League side in the Champions League. However, with home advantage and a confident performance against West Ham, Spurs are likely to make the most of this opportunity.
Goals to be Scored
Spurs have scored two or more goals in four of their five games this season. They are expected to continue this trend against Villarreal, who have kept only two clean sheets in four games this season. The Spaniards have averaged two goals per game themselves, so this match is likely to see plenty of goals.
Richarlison’s Threat
Richarlison is the only Spurs striker to have scored so far this season. He is set to lead the line against Villarreal and is likely to cause problems for the La Liga outfit. With Spurs likely to dominate, Richarlison is a good bet to score anytime.
Conclusion
In conclusion, this match between Tottenham and Villarreal promises to be an exciting encounter. With Spurs’ recent performances and home advantage, they are likely to win 2-1. Richarlison is a good bet to score anytime, and with both teams likely to score, this match is expected to be a thrilling encounter.
