  • Saturday

I’m kicking off with a selection favouring the visitors. Madrid have conceded eight times already this season and haven’t impressed me defensively in the slightest.

Perez netted his first of the season just prior to the international break and has averaged a hefty 1.81 shots on target per 90 minutes.


His shot volume is considerable too at 3.88 per 90 minutes.

He’s had a shot on target in all five of his starts so far this season and also managed to hit the target in a 29 minute cameo against Alaves.

His seven shots on target is the second highest in the Villarreal squad.

Mbappe has drawn an average of 1.14 fouls per 90 minutes in La Liga this season and his recent form in this market has been excellent with five fouls drawn in his last two - two against Atleti and three against Elche.

Of course, Mbappe becomes a bit of a target because of his personality but also his ability. He’s averaging above three shots on target per game and already has four goals.

Renato Veiga and Santiago Mourino have combined for 13 fouls so far this season at the heart of the Villarreal defence.

The price here looks generous for a player who has committed nine fouls already this season, the second-highest in the Villarreal squad.

That makes his average a hefty 2.14 per 90 minutes, so 1.44 for one foul on various sites looks like a very nice price.

Buchanan will line-up on the left of midfield and he works back defensively, as a player who can also play full-back.

He’ll line up against either Yan Diomande or Arda Guler who draw 3.44 and 2.89 fouls per 90 minutes, respectively.

Six of Madrid’s seven games so far have seen three or more match goals with an average of 3.71 per match.

They’ve also managed just one clean sheet in La Liga. It’s deserved too, as they’ve conceded an average of 1.44 xGA per match, but they are creating a huge 2.55 xGF.

As for the visitors, they’ve also seen this selection land in six out of seven games and their matches have averaged 3.57 goals and they’re one of five sides in the division who are yet to keep a clean sheet up to this point.

They are dangerous going forward and have averaged 1.99 xG per match.
