Prediction

  • Villarreal are fifth in the LaLiga standings after a dramatic win over Girona in added time. The Yellow Submarines dominated the game but a breakthrough was starting to look very likely until they won two penalties in the final minutes of the game. Moreno missed in the 93rd minute before Parejo secured the 1-0 win in the 101st minute.
  • Rayo Vallecano remain mid-table after a 2-0 loss at home to high-flying Real Sociedad. They only managed two shots on target throughout the game, neither of great danger to the goalkeeper. A win in this match could still see Vallecano within touching distance of a European spot.
  • Villarreal have a very good record in head-to-heads against Vallecano, not losing since 2016. The last meeting between the sides ended 5-1 with three defenders scoring for Villarreal that day.
