Match preview

Our model makes Liverpool clear favourites, giving them a 59% chance of winning against 17% for the draw.

Our fair price for "Home win" is 1.69 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 4.9 goals in total (2.99 for Liverpool, 1.93 for Villarreal), which points to Over 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Liverpool sit 3rd on 9 points; Villarreal are 19th on 3.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
