ℹ️ Team News: Villarreal
Almost everyone can be considered, as there’s just one fitness concern for the Villarreal gaffer Marcelino García Toral to be concerned with from an otherwise fully-primed group of players. Ilias Akhomach (Cruciate ligament injury) is out of contention.
In all likelihood, El Submarino Amarillo will possibly kick off with a 4-4-2 formation this time featuring Luiz Junior, Pau Navarro, Juan Foyth, Logan Costa, Alfonso Pedraza, Yeremi Pino, Pape Gueye, Daniel Parejo, Alejandro Baena, Nicolas Pepe and Ayoze Perez.
📋 Team News: Leganés
Leganés manager Borja Jiménez has multiple availability issues to deal with. Enric Franquesa (Cruciate ligament injury) and Borna Barisic (Cruciate ligament tear) can’t be considered.
We’re of the thinking that Leganés seem most likely to make use of a 5-3-2 system, settling for Marko Dmitrovic, Valentin Rosier, Jorge Saenz, Sergio Gonzalez, Adria Altimira, Javier Hernandez, Yvan Neyou Noupa, Renato Tapia, Seydouba Cisse, Daniel Raba and Munir El Haddadi.
✨ Prediction
We envisage that Villarreal look likely to create the chances to score more than once when they come up against Leganés, who will be up against it finding the net themselves.
Our selection here is for a comfortable 2-0 winning score for Villarreal at the end of the 90 minutes.
