Football Bet of the Day: Full speed ahead at El Madrigal

Villarreal v Sevilla
Thursday 20:00 (Live on BT Sport 2)

Blackburn 1 Bolton 0 in the Championship last night. An end to our winning run as Neil Lennon delays the start of Bolton's unbeaten streak by a game.

We've skulked all the way to Spain overnight, arriving in a small Valencian town for what might just be the best of tonight's Europa League last-16 first legs.

Villarreal have a fine Europa League record at El Madrigal, winning 11/12 and scoring at least twice in 11/12. The same fraction delivered Over 2.5 Goals.

In all competitions recently, the Yellow Submarine have scored in 19/20 home games. Only Real Madrid - back when they were good - have stopped them. Marcelino's men have actually scored twice or more in 13/20.

These are Sevilla's most recent away results: 1-3, 1-3, 1-2, 1-2, 3-4, 3-2, 4-3. See the pattern?

From Madrid to Moenchengladbach, the Europa League champions have scored at least once in all of their last 10 on the road.

We're counting on them for another away goal tonight. With Villarreal guaranteeing us at least two of their own, that's Over 2.5 right there.
