Villarreal’s last victory came against Girona at home on January 22, courtesy of Dani Parejo’s lone goal in stoppage time. Since then, Quique Setien’s side have lost each of their last four games against the likes of Rayo Vallecano, Elche, Barcelona and Mallorca. Last time out, the Yellow Submarine lost to Mallorca at Iberostar Stadium, despite the fact that Jose Morales and Samuel Chukwueze found the back of the net. The Pirates netted four times, courtesy of a brace from Dani Rodriguez and one goal each from Tino Kadewere and Vedat Muriqi. Villarreal are currently 11 points adrift of the top four, but they are just three away from sixth-placed Rayo Vallecano.
