Villarreal vs Girona Prediction & Betting Tips (27 September)

Villarreal still occupies the second part of the table 12th and is only 3 steps ahead of the relegation zone. The yellow "submarine" suffered 3 defeats in its last 5 outings against FC Barcelona 3-4, at Cádiz CF 3-1 and at Panathinaikos 2-0 in the Europa League on September 21. Since the end of August, Villarreal have only won once, it was against Almeria 2-1 on the 5th day of La Liga. With already 2 losses at the Ceramica stadium against Betis Sevilla 1-2 and Barça 3-4 in 3 receptions, the home record of Pacheta's protégés is disappointing! Girona is walking on water at the start of the season and is holding its own against FC Barcelona at the top of this Liga. Undefeated this season, the co-leader of this Liga has just taken 15 points in the last 5 days against Getafe 3-0, at Sevilla 1-2, against Las Palmas 1-0, at Granada 2-4 and against Mallorca 5-3 this weekend.

Thanks to this great success, Michel's team has the best attack in La Liga with 16 goals scored in 6 days, an average of 2.66 per match. The yellow "submarine" could be torpedoed several times and sunk this Wednesday evening.

Small blow for Villarreal who lost midfielder Denis Suarez against Panathinaikos in the first half and will probably be kept by the trainers today. Same situation for the Tricolore, Francis Coquelin (not expected before the beginning of October) without forgetting Cuenca (discomfort in the ankle). In terms of good news, the Norwegian international, Alexander Sorlöth (3 goals already this season), the scorer Moreno (top scorer in the club's history) should see their names on the team composition, the same goes for the returning injury, Ramon Terrats then the returner from suspension, Pedraza. On the other hand, in the cross chase, defender Alberto Moreno will take a quick trip to the suspended box (red last weekend). It is still important to remember that the crucial ones, Chukwueze (AC Milan) and Jackson (Chelsea) took to their heels in the off-season.

Opposite, Los Blanquivermells will probably travel without a host of players from the group professional. To list them: Artero (rotation), Borja Garcia (important) without forgetting the unfortunate Toni Villa (ruptured cruciate ligaments) or even the young Joel Roca (sporadic within the rotation in normal times) all injured therefore. Let us note, however, that last weekend, the long-term injured Kébé returned to the match sheet like Martinez. The Ukrainian duo: Tsygankov (3 goals, 6 assists last year) and the rookie Dovbyk (ex-Dnipro, 24 goals, 4 goals last season with Dnipro in the Ukrainian D1) should be traveling to the Ceramica without forgetting the player loaned by Barcelona, ​​Eric Garcia then the one loaned by City, Yangel Herrera (crucial).
