Villarreal, Recent FormVillarreal enter this game with a comfortable 2-1 away win over Almeria last time out in the league. During that encounter they had 43% possession and had 11 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 5 of their 24 shots on goal.
Marcelino García Toral will be very satisfied with his team's ability to find the net, with 13 goals in their last 6 matches; however, he will be less pleased with his back line, who have conceded7 goals during those same matches. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 28 of their 32 games overall.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Alexander Sørloth will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 6 goals in Villarreal's last 6 league games.
Rayo Vallecano, Recent FormRayo Vallecano will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-1 home win against Osasuna. They came away from that fixture with a 64% share of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Osasuna, who managed 6 attempts on goal, 2 of which were on target.
They have a modest amount of points to show from their last 6 games, in spite of only conceding 3 goals, because they have failed to be as predictable in their scoring at the other end despite a reasonable 5 goals. Of the 16 games they have played away from home this season, they have failed to score on 9 occasions; however, they've managed to notch up 8 clean sheets.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 6 games.
Álvaro García has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Villarreal.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 1-1 draw.
The stats show that in the last 4 meetings between Villarreal and their rivals, Los Franjirrojos, the former have conceded at least one goal.
In the last 3 league matches against Rayo, Villarreal have failed to record a victory.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Villarreal manager Marcelino García Toral with Eric Bailly (Physical discomfort), Francis Coquelin (Physical discomfort), Juan Foyth (Thigh) and Denis Suárez (Hamstring) all unavailable for selection, and Yeremy Pino (Cruciate ligament) out for the rest of the season.
