Both Teams to Score
Both Espanyol and Real Valladolid have been hit-and-miss this season in terms of result, though they can usually be relied upon to concede goals. They have kept just three clean sheets between them in 18 La Liga fixtures combined since the summer and neither defence looks solid enough to record a shutout on Sunday. BTTS has landed in each of Espanyol’s last four league assignments and the same market holds plenty of appeal this weekend at the prices quoted.
Over 2.5 Goals
Espanyol have only managed to post a single victory in La Liga this season, though they have at least, been entertaining their supporters with some action-packed fixtures. Indeed, the last four league matches involving Diego Martínez’s side averaged 4.0 goals per 90 minutes and Espanyol will stand and trade blows with their opponents again when Real Valladolid visit the RCDE Stadium on Sunday. Each of Valladolid’s last three tests on the road also featured three or more goals and we’re tipping that trend to continue here.
