Potential Bet Builder Legs
These are not tips. Every row is priced too short to back on its own – at 1/4 or 2/5 you are risking a lot to win a little, and a 100% record across six matches is not a guarantee of a seventh. They are legs worth considering inside a bet builder, where several combine into a price worth taking. None of them is in our record, because we are not recommending them.
John McGinn appears twice – a shot in all 6 of his last 6 at 7/50, and fouled twice or more in 5 of 6 at 2/5. Emiliano Buendia does the same. Both are Villa midfielders in a fixture the market makes close to even, which is the shape these legs want.
Where the Odds and the Stats Disagree
Every market we priced on this tie, including the ones we are not backing. A row without a tip is not a weaker suggestion – it is a market where our figure and the price agree, or where the price is better than our figure.
The Edge column compares against the raw price. A tip has to beat the fair price once the bookmaker’s cut is removed, which is why a selection can show a small edge here and still be one we are backing.
Club Brugge vs Aston Villa Bet Builder
Three legs at 5/6, Evens and 2/3, and they fail for different reasons – the corners leg needs an open match, Buendia needs Villa on the ball, and the goals leg needs Club Brugge to score as they have in 16 of their last 20.
Over 9.5 corners is the anchor. 11.40 a game between the sides against a line of 9.5, and about 70% against a fair 50%.
Emiliano Buendia two or more fouls drawn at Evens. Fouled twice or more in 4 of his last 6, and started all 4 of Villa’s matches this season.
Over 2.5 goals at 2/3. The two sides have seen 3.28 a game between them.
Club Brugge vs Aston Villa Prediction
We are predicting 2-2. The market makes it 35.3% Club Brugge, 25.9% the draw and 38.8% Aston Villa – the closest of the six ties on Tuesday.
Club Brugge score 3.56 goals a game at home and concede 0.67. Villa have kept 7 clean sheets in 20 and their expected goals against is 1.15. The two records point in opposite directions, which is why our figure sits close to the price on the result and why the goals and corners markets are where we have something to say.
We do not publish a match result view on this fixture. Our model reads corners, shots and fouls well and results badly, and across this Champions League round it sits an average of 11 points from the market even after adjusting for league strength.
Amadou Onana is out with a cruciate ligament injury and João Gomes with a calf problem, which removes two of Villa’s midfield. Carlos Forbs is suspended for Club Brugge.
