Villarreal secured their 18th league-win of the season against Girona at Montilivi last time out thanks to Yeremy Pino’s ninth-minute opener and Gerard Moreno’s dramatic winner four minutes into the injury time. The result extended Yellow Submarine’s unbeaten run to five games, recording four wins in the process. As a result of the impressive run of form, Quique Setien’s men are ten points inside the top six and eight points shy of top four, meaning that European football will return to El Madrigal for a fourth successive season, while there is still a slim chance to achieve Champions League qualification. Having won their last three home league games, the Castellon club will back themselves to notch a 11 top flight victory in front of their own supporters this season on Wednesday.
Cadiz, on the other hand, clinched a much-needed victory against relegation rivals Valladolid last time out, thanks to Theo Bongonda’s brace. It was their ninth league-win of the season and first one following back-to-back defeats against Atletico Madrid (5-1) and Mallorca (1-0). With just 11 points taken from their last ten outings, Sergio Gonzalez’s men still remain in the relegation battle. Meanwhile, Cadiz are the second-lowest scorers in the division, having netted 28 goals in 35 matches this term. Having won just two of their last ten league-games on the road, while suffering five defeats in the process, El Submarino Amarillo will need to be at their best to halt in-form Villarreal.
Villarreal probable starting lineup: Reina, Foyth, Mandi, Cuenca, Alfonso, Terrats, Capoue, Chukwueze, Baena, Pino, Jackson
Cadiz probable starting lineup: Ledesma, Carcelen, Hernandez, Mere, Espino, Escalante, Alacaraz, Bongonda, Guardiola, Sobrino, Ramos
