About The Match

Liverpool arrive as the market's clear favourite, priced at 64% to win, and their perfect start to the season backs that up with 6 points from 2 matches and 8 goals scored. Villarreal are no pushovers, though, having won their most recent match and carrying a dangerous away attack that has scored 2 goals in its single road fixture. The key uncertainty is whether Liverpool's thin home sample of one match, where they conceded just once, can hold up against a Villarreal side that has scored in every match this season.
