| 7 of Villarreal’s last 8 games have seen BTTS
🔥 Chelsea secured Lukaku
Chelsea continues to spend heavily after starting last summer. Lukaku has now been recruited but has not yet been officially announced. The Blues from London played several friendlies with English teams, including two London derbies with Arsenal and Tottenham, but did not lose any of them.
⏩ Villarreal is without a win in the friendlies
Villarreal officially brought Foyth from Tottenham in the defense, and also strengthened with the Reims striker, Dia, who cost the club a little over 16 million euros. However, so far Emery’s team has not won a single friendly match, and the last two were with English teams. Theoretically, Villarreal have not won in 8 consecutive matches, because the success against Man U in the Europa League was on penalties.
The yellow submarine can score against the blues
We can be sure that Villarreal will take this cup quite seriously and will definitely do their best to win it because it is not clear when they will have the opportunity to play for it again. Considering overall that the matches of these two teams have been high-scoring lately and in reality, they are not in their peak form, because the season has not started, I expect a more open match and specifically not so strict game in defense. Prediction – BTTS at 1.95.
