Athletic Club (Cody) at 2.4 to win feels tight given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Valhalla Cup (2x4 min.) this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re overperforming — analytics guys would fade them.
Villarreal (Forest)’s 2.1 line intrigues, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
