Osasuna have only won two of their 16 away games in LaLiga this season, losing 10 of these games.

Athletic Club have picked up 68% of their total points this season at home (26/38).

No LaLiga side has scored fewer goals on the road than Osasuna this season (11). 

The initial league meeting between these sides finished 1-1, with Athletic Club dominating the xG battle (1.46-0.67).

Mallorca have scored 26 goals across their 16 home games in LaLiga this season (1.62 per game).

Mallorca scored when these sides met earlier in the season in a game that finished 1-1.

Valencia have conceded 28 goals across their 16 away matches in LaLiga this season (1.75 per game).

Mallorca have found the back of the net in each of their last five matches in LaLiga, most recently putting three goals past Rayo Vallecano at home.

Mallorca have the second top scorer in LaLiga this season in Vedat Muriqi who has scored 21 goals this season, accounting for 53% of the total goals that Mallorca have scored in LaLiga.

The initial league meeting between these sides saw this selection land as Madrid ran out 2-1 winners.

This selection has also landed in each of the last three head to head meetings between the sides at the Bernabeu. Madrid covered this goal line on their own in all three games.

Madrid have won 13 of their 16 home games this season, seeing 50 goals across these matches (3.1 per game).

Alaves have only won three of their 16 away games in LaLiga this season, conceding 28 goals across these matches (1.75 per game).

Each of the last eight head to head meetings between these sides have seen BTTS, with the most recent meeting finishing 1-1 last year.

Real Betis have seen BTTS in four of their last five matches, failing to win any of these games. 

Real Betis have seen 41 goals across their 16 away games this season (2.56 per game), winning just four of these matches.

Girona have only kept six clean sheets across their 31 matches in LaLiga this season (19%).

Only Lewis Dunk (10) and Diego Gomez (9) have picked up more Premier League yellow cards for Brighton this season than Van Hecke (8). Brighton have also collected the joint-most cards of any side in the division (81) and rank second for fouls committed per game (12.1).

Three of Brighton’s back four were booked on their trip to Stamford Bridge earlier in the season, with Van Hecke among that trio after committing two fouls on the day. The reason Brighton’s defenders feature so high in the card stats is the high line Fabian Hurzeler likes to play, which often forces his defenders into tactical or last-ditch challenges to stop opponents getting beyond the final line of defence before Verbruggen in goal.

Van Hecke is reportedly being monitored by Chelsea at the moment ahead of a potential summer move, which would be the latest bit of business between two clubs who have grown very familiar with each other over the last few transfer windows. He should be in for a battle with Liam Delap, as João Pedro has picked up a minor injury, and that’s a duel to keep an eye on – I can see both players committing a few fouls in this contest.

Only three sides have picked up more yellow cards in the Premier League this season, one of them being Brighton. Chelsea also lead the way in the Premier League for red cards, picking up seven so far this season. 

Liam Delap has faced sharp criticism this season for his aggressive, bullish style - often labeled as clumsy - but that edge is exactly why Chelsea signed him. In Chelsea’s 1-0 loss to Manchester United, he committed two fouls and was fouled twice himself. While his goal tally has been modest, his physical presence remains a constant threat up top, setting up plenty of duels against Van Hecke and Boscagli.

Across 10 Premier League starts this season, Delap has committed 20 fouls (2.02 per 90), matching his Ipswich average of 2.48 fouls per 90 from last season. He also picked up 12 yellow cards last campaign, and has picked up two cautions so far this term across his limited starts. With Delap expected to continue filling in for the injured João Pedro, his discipline is worth watching closely - particularly the likelihood of him being shown a card.
