Let’s review some of the most important betting stats from La Liga’s 2022-23 campaign.
As one of the elite European football leagues, La Liga offered exciting betting opportunities during the 2022-23 season.
Throughout the campaign, Acefootball presented weekly and daily tips on the La Liga fixtures. Now it’s time to review the statistical trends that shaped the betting landscape throughout the season.
More goals, Less BTTS!
Compared to the last season, the percentage of home victories has jumped significantly in La Liga. The Spanish top flight has, however, become less attractive to bettors who are looking for higher odds on draws.
The number of average goals per game in La Liga has stayed at around 2.5 in the past few years. But last season, the over 2.5 bets have returned a 4% increase in their win rates.
Season | 2022-23 | 2021-22 | 2020-21 |
Home win | 48 | 43 | 42 |
Draw | 23 | 29 | 29 |
Away win | 29 | 27 | 30 |
BTTS | 50 | 49 | 52 |
Over 2.5 | 48 | 44 | 44 |
Goals per match | 2.51 | 2.5 | 2.51 |
Best La Liga teams for BTTS betting
BTTS has remained one of the most popular betting markets for La Liga bettors. With the number of goals per game hovering around 2.5, it’s not surprising to see the BTTS odds decline during the campaign.
However, one could still find a lot of attractive bets by paying attention to the balance of the teams’ attacking and defensive forms.
A clear example is Real Madrid, whose inconsistent defensive displays saw them return a 58% winning rate in the BTTS market.
Team | BTTS |
Espanyol | 76% |
Girona | 71% |
Almeria | 66% |
Rayo Vallecano | 61% |
Sevilla | 61% |
Real Madrid | 58% |
Atletico Madrid | 53% |
Celta Vigo | 53% |
Teams with most Over 2.5 win rates
During the 2022-23 season, 48% of the La Liga games ended with at least three goals. That’s 4% higher than the last season but still lower than the Premier League and the Bundesliga.
Barcelona and Real Madrid are surprisingly not in the top four, with teams from the bottom half of the table consistently presenting more eventful games.
Team | Over 2.5 |
Espanyol | 66% |
Almeria | 61% |
Girona | 58% |
Rayo Vallecano | 58% |
Real Madrid | 55% |
Barcelona | 53% |
Real Valladolid | 53% |
Villarreal | 50% |
