Villarreal form and stats

The hosts won their first La Liga game here at Estadio de la Cerámica, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Villarreal last season were 10 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses from 19 games.

Villarreal are returning here after guesting Hapoel Be'er Sheva in a Europa Conference League match and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. The first setback in the shape of a defeat after going unbeaten through four league games. Midfield player Baena got a match rating of 8.14 in that game, the max score being 10. Baena scored one goal, hit three key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times and had 33 successful passes (of 41 total).

Prior to that, an away loss at Real Betis in the La Liga.

One betting fact: This team have finished 5 league fixtures in a row with only one (or none) team scoring.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Villarreal at home in the league. 4 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Sevilla form and stats

Things could have gone better for Sevilla in their La Liga away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

It's another away match for the visitors, as they travelled to København in their previous outing. The Champions League battle ended 0-0. That victory felt sweet as this team had gone four league rounds without winning. Isco, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.74. Isco hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 2 of 4 times and had 60 successful passes (of 69 total).

Before that one, a nice away victory 3-2 at Espanyol.

Sevilla are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 5 times in 3 away games so far.

Head 2 Head

As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three Villarreal victories, four draws and three Sevilla wins. Over/under statistics; six of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.
