Villarreal Team News
After being knocked out of the Copa del Rey by Real Madrid in the round of 16 last Wednesday, Villarreal has turned their attention fully to the competition in La Liga, where they are currently in fifth place after 18 matches played with the same number of points as fourth-placed Atletico and sixth-placed Betis and will, after by all accounts, the fight for a place in the championship of Spain, which brings participation in the UEFA Champions League next season, will be uncertain until the very end.
In the last round, Villarreal struggled a lot to win in front of their fans against Girona because the goal for the new three points came only in stoppage time when Dani Parejo was accurate from the penalty spot.
In the next meeting with Ray, they have the role of favorites, considering that they have registered four triumphs and one draw in the last five matches, and what can give them additional optimism is the fact that they achieved all four victories with more than a two-goal lead over their opponents.
Rayo Vallecano Team News
On the other hand, Rayo Vallecano also ended their competition in the Copa del Rey, but only a little earlier because they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Gijon in the round of 16.
After that failure in the next three matches of La Liga, Rayo registered one triumph away from Valladolid and two defeats at home, against Betis 1-2 and in the last round against Real Sociedad 0-2, so we cannot say that they are in the best mood for the clash with Villarreal on Monday, especially considering the poor results in the last meetings between them.
Rayo Vallecano is currently ninth in the standings with 26 points, the same as Athletic Bilbao, but with a better goal difference that gives them an advantage over Rayo regarding the table’s appearance.
