VIL vs BAR Match Preview

Villarreal has begun the first full season in the second stint of Marcelino in a bright fashion with three wins and two draws in the first five league games. Their bright start has put them fourth on the La Liga table alongside the leaders Barcelona and the two Madrid clubs. The Yellow Submarine will be eager to overturn their disappointing eighth finish last term making a hopeful beginning to the new season. The side failed to keep a clean sheet in the past five games but they showed their never-die attitude with stoppage-time winners in three matches. Villarreal will hope to maintain their momentum against leaders Barcelona at home having won the last meeting in the league 5-3 albeit the visitors carrying an excellent form. The Catalan giants suffered disappointment in Europe so Marcelino’s side needs to be aware of a reaction coming in.

             

Barcelona failed to translate their fruitful start in La Liga to the Champions League stage losing the League Phase opener to Monaco in France. Eric Garcia getting sent off in just the 10th minute of the match cost the side dearly as the hosts claimed a 2-1 victory despite Lamine Yamal's first Champions League goal bringing the scores level on the half-hour mark. Hansi Flick's side will want to term the defeat as an accident after a perfect show on the domestic front raising hopes following a trophyless season last time. The Blaugrana would want to bounce back strongly as they return to La Liga action with a trip to Villarreal and extend their lead on top of the table. The home side are just four points behind them so they can’t slip off in this fixture with Atletico Madrid and holders Real Madrid also lurking behind with the same difference.
