Goals have followed Villarreal everywhere this season, for and against, and the entertainers host a Levante side who can also find the net when they meet at the Estadio de la Ceramica on Sunday. Both teams have leaked heavily in the early weeks of the La Liga season, so a lively, open contest looks likely on the south-east coast.
Anthony Eadson’s Villarreal vs Levante predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson expects goals in an open contest.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Nicolas Pepe to score anytime | 15/8 (Paddy Power) | Villarreal have scored ten goals already this season and Nicolas Pepe has been at the heart of their attacking play, netting twice and threatening every time he cuts inside. Levante have been generous on the road, conceding three at Espanyol and four at home to Barcelona, so chances should flow for the hosts. With Villarreal expected to dominate at the Estadio de la Ceramica, their in-form winger getting on the scoresheet at 15/8 with Paddy Power looks a strong play. |
| Roger Brugue to score anytime | 4/1 (Sky Bet) | Levante may be inconsistent, but Roger Brugue has been in excellent form, scoring three times in just four appearances to become their main goal threat. Villarreal are box-office but far from solid at the back, shipping eleven goals already, so the visitors should carve out chances even away from home. In a game that has goals written all over it, Brugue finding the net at a generous 4/1 with Sky Bet offers real value for a striker firmly on the up. |

How Villarreal go into the game
Villarreal have been box-office but fragile, scoring ten goals yet shipping eleven, and they bounced back from home defeats to Betis and Deportivo with a 3-1 win at Malaga. Pape Gueye leads the scoring with three, while Nicolas Pepe has chipped in twice.
Dangerous going forward but far from watertight, the hosts will look to outscore a leaky Levante.
How Levante go into the game
Levante can hurt teams, as a 5-2 win over Betis showed, but they have been porous away from home, losing 3-0 at Espanyol and shipping four at home to Barcelona. Roger Brugue has caught the eye with three goals in four games.
A threat on their day yet vulnerable on the road, the visitors could be picked off at the Estadio de la Ceramica.
