It’s hard to say the tie is over as last week’s game was a bizarre one. Liverpool played so well and they could have scored more than they did. The Reds are so good at home and they’ll maybe feel like they deserved another goal to put the tie to bed.

Villarreal were happy with the 2-0 defeat at Anfield and they’ll feel like they have a chance at home to beat Liverpool. Unai Emery was screaming at his side at Anfield and telling them to run back to defend rather than attack despite them being behind.

However, I always fancy Jurgen Klopp’s side to score. With the attacking talent they’ve got, any of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Luis Diaz or Diogo Jota could always find the back of the net.

Although Villarreal will be better, I expect Liverpool to Win. The Reds have been on fire this season and Klopp rested Salah on Saturday against Newcastle.

I like the look of Liverpool to win but I see Both Teams to Score coming in. If I had to pick a scoreline, I’d go with Liverpool to Win 2-1.

Salah to Score Anytime is also a solid selection. He should be rested and he’ll likely start in Spain. He’s been brilliant this season and he’s already got 30 goals in all competitions.
