He Villarreal and the Leganés dispute in the stadium of Ceramics A key match for the future of both teams, since the premises play their options to play the next Champions League, while visitors are immersed in the struggle for continuity in the category.
Both teams arrive at the game of the intersemanal day reinforced after their last victories, in Girona Los Amarillos and at home against Espanyol Los Blanquiazules. For him Villarreal The games at home are going to be decisive, since to add the victory in the two left, their champions league possibilities are very high with only three days to be played.
The technician Marcelino García Toral It still cannot recover the side Kiko Femenía or the attacker Thinher Barry for muscle discomforts in both cases and join as downs at the defense Raúl Albiol and the extreme Ilias Akhomach, both out of the team in recent months.
Regarding the possible eleven of the Castellonenses, this will continue to keep Luiz Junior in the goal, accompanied in defense by Pau Navarro, Juan Foyth, Logan Costa and Sergi Cardona. In the center of the countryside they could form Santi Comesaña and Dani Parejo, who would return to the starting eleven, while the bands will probably be for Álex Baena and Yeremy Pino, who were already starting on the last day. In addition, with the absence of Thinher Barry the attack couple can be formed by Ayoze Pérez and Nicolás Pépé.
As for the Leganéshe has received an important mood push after his triumph the previous day against Espanyol. The three points not only allowed him to break a streak without winning that he had started on March 2 but also helped him advance in the table to UD Las Palmas.
In spite of all permanence, it still does not depend on themselves, although it looks something more feasible after avoiding the bullet that supposed the confrontation prior to Villarreal and also doing so with solvency, playing those who for their coach and some players were the best sixty minutes of the season. Now the Madrid painting hopes to replicate that performance before the yellow team and take out something positive that allows him to continue in first be in his hand in the two games that remain ahead, another one outside the UD Las Palmas herself and the final at home against a Valladolid already descended.
In the face of this appointment Borja Jiménez It will still not be able to have Enric Franquesa and Borna Barisic, long -lasting left side. Instead, Javi Hernández recovers for that position after fulfilling this sanction for accumulation of yellow. However, and given the good performance he gave as a left -handed lane in his absence Yan Diomande, it is possible that he repeats as headline.
Anyway, the truth is that Jiménez has announced that there will be changes derived from the fatigue of playing two clashes in a short time and the blows suffered by some players, although it has confirmed that there are no injured as such and that they will all travel with the expedition waiting to evaluate with those who can count.
With regard to the precedents between the two, there are twenty -seven official to date with a balance of 9 triumphs of the Leganés, 5 draws and 13 victories of Villarreal. Of the latter, six have arrived in the seven most immediate precedents. On the other hand, the blue and white side was able to impose itself on its closest visit in time, 1-2 in 2019-2020.
