Game Totals Prediction

Barcelona is back on track; the team has reclaimed the top spot in La Liga and doesn't intend to relinquish it for the rest of the season. Villarreal is having a fantastic season, holding on to the top spot, and is certainly dreaming of a top-four finish and a Champions League spot. The top- and third-place teams in the table are meeting, so I expect the visitors to play well and to give the Catalans a run for their money and not lose badly: Villarreal will not lose by more than two goals – Handicap 2(+2) – 1.68.
