Barcelona vs Villarreal Over/Under Pick: Over 3½ Goals (-109)

Villarreal have been extremely leaky at the back on their travels of late, conceding 15 goals in their last five away league matches, and could be breached a fair few times by an in-form Barca attack that has netted eight times in their last three games.

However, the Yellow Submarine should score in defeat, just as they did when facing Xavi’s side earlier in the season so if you love goals you should back the over for your soccer picks and parlays.

Barcelona vs Villarreal Player Prop Pick: Robert Lewandowski Anytime Goalscorer (-150)

Robert Lewandowski appears to be rediscovering his scoring touch and with four goals in his last six matches and we expect him to find the back of the net on Saturday.

He is priced at -150 to find the back of the net on Wednesday, a great value bet if you love your La Liga props.

Barcelona vs Villarreal Best Game Prop: Barcelona Wins and Total Over 3½ (+130)

This has the potential to be a tricky match for Barcelona despite Villarreal’s troubles. Both teams will be missing a number of important players, which makes it an intriguing contest, but we are expecting the reigning La Liga champions to have enough quality to secure all three points on Saturday.
