Chelsea - Villarreal: prediction and bet on the UEFA Super Cup - 08/11/2021

Chelsea and Villarreal will today reveal the winner of the 2021 UEFA Super Cup - a prediction for this exciting match. This is definitely not to be missed!

Chelsea is approaching this match unbeaten in friendly matches, they conceded in all games, which gives hope for an effective final. Villarreal on the contrary, no victories. They have 3 draws and 3 defeats.

Chelsea Friendly Results (Preseason)

- Victory over Bournemouth 2: 1
- Victory over Arsenal 2: 1
- Draw with Tottenham 2: 2

Completely different players scored in these matches, I would like to separately mention Tammy Abraham and Hakimi Ziyech. I really hope that these players will play in the starting lineup with Villarreal.

Villarreal's friendly results (preseason)

- Lose from Valencia 2: 3
- Draw with Lyon 2: 2
- Draw with Levante 0: 0
- Defeat from Marseille 1: 2
- Lost to Leicester 2: 3
- Draw with Leeds 2: 2

Villarreal has a certain stability in the sense that they miss almost every match, apparently there are some problems in defense. At the same time, I managed to watch the game against Marseille, there really are free zones on the flanks of the Spanish team. Interestingly, there, even in the 10th, Villarreal was able to score, they removed not only the defender Voith, but also Unai Emery for unflattering remarks towards the referee. The game there was very hot and there was a struggle on every part of the field. The emphasis was made on this friendly match, as they get a lot of experience against such teams, which with Chelsea may well help.

Chelsea has recently taken care of Lukaku's transfer and they have successfully negotiated with Inter. It is unlikely that we will see the Belgian “car” on the field, but this is a small wake-up call for Abraham and, perhaps, very hopefully, for Werner.

Unai Emery noted before the UEFA Super Cup that Villarreal has players who are eager to prove and prove themselves in the match against Chelsea. I believe him, the Spanish team has character, but it seems to me that Chelsea's individual plan will have more impact here.

Match prediction: Villarreal - Chelsea (UEFA Super Cup 2021)

It is quite expected that Villarreal will play number two and try to break out in counterattacks. Unfortunately, there are not many fast players there, which cannot be said about Chelsea. Havertz, Abraham, Ziyesh, Kante - this “fantastic four” will make the difference in this match.

I really want to believe in the guys from Villarreal and at least 1 goal from them, so I tend to "Both will score - Yes" for 2.14 and draws 3.76. Chelsea is a clear favorite, they are given a coefficient of 1.756, just yesterday it was 1.85. They hardly believe in the victory of Villarreal, the odds are 5.5 from the bookmakers.

Chelsea are expected to "explode" and attacking football in the first 20-25 minutes, but it is quite possible to give the match to Villarreal and see what they came to Northern Ireland with, what strategies and so on.

Both teams missed a lot in friendly matches and it is not clear whether this is objective and whether this factor should be taken into account in this particular match.

The odds for a goal scored from Abraham is 2.6, and Timo Werner is 3.2. In general, it seems to me that both teams will definitely score (2.14); Chelsea and Villarreal will draw in the first half, but in the second the Londoners will squeeze them out and win.

Prediction: Chelsea and Villarreal will score goals in the UEFA Super Cup - 2.14 odds; with maximum risk on (N/Chelsea Win) - (Time/Match) - odds 4.3
