Sevilla vs Villarreal Betting Tips - BTTS

Entertainment should be the order fo the day in Sevilla on Friday with both teams coming into this fixture on the back of 2:2 draws in their opening La Liga fixtures of the season.

Sevilla began their campaign with four goals shared in a see-saw battle against Las Palmas. Despite taking the lead twice, the Andalucians were forced to settle for a point against Los Amarillos last Sunday.

Likewise, Villarreal were forced to settle for a point despite leading twice in their thrilling 2:2 draw against Atletico Madrid. Making his first appearance in almost 18 months after loan moves to Everton and Tottenham, Arnaut Danjuma was on the scoresheet for the Yellow Submarine.

Goals can usually be expected when Villarreall are in action, particularly on their travels. The Yellow Sub have seen BTTS in 13 of their last 15 away league matches. 

While Sevilla are not quite as consistent in the goal markets, the hosts have seen BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last six home league fixtures. García Pimienta´s side also saw BTTS and over 2.5 goals scored in each of their last three matches.

Recent meetings between these sides have also proved favourable for goal chasers. Seven of their last ten encounters, including each of the last five saw BTTS, including Villarreal´s thrilling 3:2 win in their most recent contest in May.

With both sides defensively vulnerable, BTTS seems likely to prove the most prudent choice in a fixture that could go either way.
