 Team Report
Next Match: at home to Valladolid, November 22

Europe: UEFA Europa League (Group G)

Villarreal's start to the season was shocking and coach Ernesto Valverde looked to be close to losing his job after losing four of the first seven league games. Villarreal failed to win any of those first seven matches before moving out of the drop zone with back-to-back wins recently. Valverde's side then fought bravely away to Sevilla before the international break, but ultimately lost that match 3-2 and is now just two points clear of the bottom three after 10 rounds of matches. Spain winger Santi Cazorla has recovered from injury and could feature on Sunday, but may not be risked by Valverde. Damian Escudero is doubtful.
