Villarreal looking for a win after two draws

It’s been a very good season for El Submarino so far with just two defeats all season, Unai Emery is keen that his team finishes in top four at least. They have been a very solid side especially in defence.

Villarreal have conceded just three goals in their last six matches in league and cup games.

Although their last match finished 0-0 in Huesca, their attack has scored eight goals in four matches which is a good performance.

Real Sociedad aiming at top four 

After being knocked out of the Copa Del Rey by Real Betis, Real Sociedad will be hoping to turn things around in this match. They haven’t won in their last three league games and if they keep losing points they may lose their sixth position as well.

Sociedad boss Imanol Alguacil has to regroup his team and specially his defence as they conceded six goals in three matches. They have to improve if they want to get a result out of this match.
