0-1Away Win

Villarreal favored despite recent losses (LLLDD) due to significantly better attack rating and Málaga's injury crisis. Bookmaker odds undervalue away win at 1.95 (51% implied) versus calculated 58%. Málaga's weak attack (0.68) and defensive vulnerabilities make them vulnerable at home.
