Why we picked this for Espanyol vs Villarreal

For this Copa del Rey fixture we go with Under 2.5 goals for Espanyol vs Villarreal, at 54% confidence. In their last 5 matches, Espanyol's games produced 3.0 goals on average, 3 of them over 2.5. Villarreal's games averaged 3.0, with 4 of 5 over the line. Recent form leans the other way: only 3 of the 10 recent games went under 2.5.

The head-to-head is split: 2 of their last 4 meetings finished under 2.5 goals. At 54%, the recent numbers are close to even, so this is one of our weaker picks; treat it with caution. The match ended 3-1, so Under 2.5 didn't come in.
