Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Leioa & Villarreal face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Copa Del Rey. All the pre-match information is available here!
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the La Liga. That game, against Real Betis, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Villarreal.
Leioa form and stats
Last season their Copa Del Rey adventure ended in the 1st round.A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Leioa, who played 1-1 against Amorebieta. That match was also played at this venue (Estadio Sarriena). Previous to that game, a Segunda B - Group 2 home match hosting Racing Santander in a game that was won 1-0.
The manager J. Lambea Aranguiz will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Laredo in only four days.
Villarreal form and stats
Villarreal's mission in Copa Del Rey last season failed in the quarter-finals.The story so far for the visiting team on their La Liga travels is 1 win, 4 draws and 1 defeat. Things are running smoothly for Villarreal who hasn't tasted defeat in their last ten matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Barcelona. Two points from the last two away games for Villarreal, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
Villarreal are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at Real Betis. A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Elche in the La Liga.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Villarreal manager U. Emery Etxegoien as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Osasuna.
The attacking power of Villarreal when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 6 league matches away. 7 goals have been conceded by Villarreal in these games.
