Estudiantes - Valladol

Barcelona is having a difficult time keeping up with Valencia, and even though they celebrated in the first finals match, it was mostly due to luck. Valencia's style of play is not favorable, and even though Barcelona will most likely control the pace when playing at home, it is practically impossible to do so against Valencia. Since I am expecting a high-scoring game, even playing in Valencia seems better than playing at home for Barcelona.

The Valencia team starts the games very well. Valencia has won 5 out of 6 first halves against the Barcelona team, so I expect similar results in the future. Barcelona has a hard time keeping up with Valencia, and even though Barcelona celebrated in the first series of the finals, it was more of a coincidence. Valencia's playing style is not favorable for Barcelona, and even though Barcelona will likely control the pace playing at home, it is practically impossible against Valencia. Since I am expecting a high-scoring game, Valencia seems to have an advantage even when playing away.

Valencia in my opinion is a better team, and they have all the chances to win the home advantage even when playing away. They could have realistically been 2-0 ahead in the series, but the end of the first match played out very favorably for the Catalan team, who managed to extend the game and then win. Valencia looked solid in the second match and didn't give any chances to Barcelona. This doesn't indicate a major difference between the teams, but it certainly shows a significant advantage for Valencia.

In my eyes, Valencia is a stronger team and has all the chances to regain the home advantage even in an away game. They realistically should have been 2-0 ahead in the series, but the end of the first game went very well for the Catalans, who managed to extend the game and eventually win. Valencia confidently looked like favorites in the second game, and it seemed like Barcelona didn't stand a chance. This doesn't hint at a significant difference between the teams, but it is a solid sign of Valencia's advantage. And since they are the underdogs in an away game, their total score is also favorable, which exceeded the over in both matches.
