Valencia vs Racing Santander



8th March 20:00 GMT

Echoing my article of two weeks ago, tonight sees Valencia entertain us in another Monday night fixture at The Mestalla. Third in the league, Valencia are in prime position for automatic qualification for the Champions League.

Tonight's match sees them take on Racing Santander, who are in the midst of a relegation dogfight.

The home side will be without the services of midfielder Ever Banega, who is enjoying an annus mirabilis. One again, we'll swerve the heavy odds-on about the home win, and stick to value betting on David Villa to score anytime @ 1.91.

El Guaje did us proud last time round, and we'll back him once again with maximum confidence.

NJ's Bets:

David Villa to score anytime - 5pts @ 1.91 William Hill
