The central match of the 36th round of the Spanish Primera will be an encounter between Barcelona and Villarreal, which will be held at Barca’s field. Bookmakers give clear preference to the future hosts and we should probably agree with that, but one should not forget, that Villarreal still have minimal chances on getting into the Champions League zone, therefore one should expect a game for a result and the Yellow Submarine performs very decently away this season.
After a draw with Juventus at Camp Nou, which has thrown Blaugranas away from the Champions League, Luis Enrique’s team has had three matches within Primera and all three were won. At first, the Catalonians’ blood enemy Real Madrid was beaten at their home ground, Osasuna and Espanyol fell after that. Barcelona have the same number of gained points, as Real in the Spanish championship’s tournament table, wherein having played one game less.
Villarreal, in their turn, after 35 played matches in the championship of Spain, are situated on the fifth position. The team has 63 points in the asset and a five-point gap from Sevilla and a spot in the Champions League qualification. Within the last seven matches, the future guests won five times with two defeats from Eibar and Alaves.
Barcelona are very strong at their home ground, but Villarreal perform good away, having the least conceded goals in away games in the league. Even if Barca will win in the forthcoming game, there is a serious doubt, that it will be an uber-devastating defeat.
Prediction for the match: Villarreal to win with +3.25 Asian handicap.
