2 minutes Aston Villa & Real Sociedad to win - 17/1
Both Liverpool and Barcelona are in league action on Monday but with both sides out of contention in their respective title races, this evening’s fixtures have far more riding on them for their opponents. These intriguing league ties offer great value for supporters of an underdog as we tip both match favourites to be turned over. Monday’s match odds are provided by our betting partners at Unibet.
Aston Villa v Liverpool
Aston Villa to win - 3/1
Jurgen Klopp’s tenure as Liverpool boss is almost at an end but the German's reign will not get the fairytale ending he’d hoped for. Liverpool are eight points adrift of leaders, Arsenal with just two matches to play and they are now mathematically certain to finish the season in third position.
On Monday evening Liverpool travel to an Aston Villa side hoping to join them in next season’s UEFA Champions League. With two games to play, Aston Villa sit four points clear of Spurs in fourth place, therefore a win at Villa Park tonight will guarantee them a fourth place finish.
Aston Villa’s push for Champions League qualification has stuttered recently with Unai Emery’s side taking just one point from their last two matches. However, their home record has been excellent this season and they could get the job done this evening.
Barcelona v Real Sociedad
Real Sociedad to win - 18/5
Barcelona are still eyeing second place in La Liga despite losing two of their last three matches however that is scant consolation after surrendering their league title to fierce rivals, Real Madrid. Five defeats in the league this season leave Barcelona 17 points off leaders, Real Madrid.
Despite failing to repeat last season’s top four finish, Real Sociedad are pushing for European qualification once again. A draw on Monday evening would be enough to see them leapfrog Real Betis and move back into the top six. However, this is a Real Sociedad side that has earned as many points away from home in La Liga as they have at home. Barcelona are far superior on paper and hold home advantage but Real Sociedad are way overpriced with Unibet.
Monday Double Odds - 17/1
- Aston Villa to win
- Real Sociedad to win
