Villarreal, Recent FormIt's fair to say Villarreal will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Rayo Vallecano, a match that ended in a 1-1 draw. In that game they had 59% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to Rayo Vallecano who had 11 attempts and 6 on target.
It's fair to say that manager José 'Pacheta' Rojo Martín will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 11 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 23 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins.
On an individual basis, Alexander Sørloth has scored in each of Villarreal's last 4 league games.
Girona, Recent FormHaving secured a 5-3 home win against Mallorca in their latest league match, Girona will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. They achieved 56% possession in that match and had 21 strikes at goal, with 9 hitting the target, up against Mallorca's tally of 15 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
Their boss Míchel Sánchez Muñoz has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 16 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 7 goals conceded across those matches. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 14 games in a row.
They've had a good run of form recently, with 5 straight wins in a row, and are on an unbeaten run of 6 games.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Girona, Yangel Herrera will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Girona, losing 1-2 to Villarreal.
In each of the previous 3 matches against Villarreal, Blanquivermells have let in at least one goal. El Submarino Amarillo have struggled for goals when Girona comes to visit The Estadio de la Cerámica, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Playing at home, Villarreal have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 league games against Girona.
Villarreal has won the last 3 games they've played against Girona in the league.
Girona player Cristhian Stuani has scored 2 times in the previous 3 matches against Villarreal away at The Estadio de la Cerámica in the league and will be looking for more of the same in this match.
Villarreal manager José 'Pacheta' Rojo Martín has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Francis Coquelin (Cruciate ligament), Jorge Cuenca (Sprained ankle) and Ramón Terrats (Physical discomfort) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Borja García (Physical discomfort) and Toni Villa (Ligament) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Míchel Sánchez Muñoz will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
