Analysis Villarreal

The home team comes to this stage of the Liga Europa (Oitavos de final) after a away draw by (1‑1) and a home win by (1‑0) against Napoli. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 18 goals scored and 5 conceded.

Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 8 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 14 of the last 28 matches have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 18 out of 28 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In the last 20 home matches for all competitions there are 2 periods that stand out: they have conceded 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (16'‑30') and 3 of their 8 goals between (76'‑90').

Villareal heads into this match with low motivation after a loss against the weak Las Palmas, making it two consecutive games without a win. Usually, coach Marcelino Toral plays in a 4-4-2 formation, with Bakambu and Soldado the forwards. Besides,they usually play through the right wing, using Castillejo and Mario Gaspar. For this match, they will be without Jonathan dos Santo and Samuel, who are hurt.

Confirmed Lineup: Alphonse Aréola, Mario Gaspar, Antonio Rukavina, Eric Bailly, Víctor Ruíz, Manu Trigueros, Samu Castillejo, Bruno, Denis Suárez, Cédric Bakambu, Soldado.
Coach: U. Emery Etxegoien.

Analysis Leverkusen

The away team comes to this stage of the Liga Europa (Oitavos de final) after a home win by (3‑1) and a away win by (0‑1) against Sporting CP. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 29 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 27 goals scored and 23 conceded. In their last match, for the Bundesliga, they got an away tie against o Augsburg by (3‑3). In the last 10 away matches o Bayer Leverkusen has won 4, tied 4 and lost 2.

Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In 11 matches, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 6 away matches for all competitions there are 3 periods that stand out: they have scored 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (61'‑75') and 3 of their 8 goals between (76'‑90'); they have conceded 3 of their 8 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Bayer Leverkusen reaches this game with low motivation after 3 consecutive games without a win, and in the last match they had a 3-3 tie against Augsburgo. Now they will in a play competition where they have favored, so far. So it is expected for coach Roger Schmidt to play with high lines trying to get ball possession in their offensive end. Bellarabi and Mehmedi are very important in exploring open spaces in their opponent's defense. Their best scorer is Chicharito, with 22 goals, but he is questionable for this match. Bender, Toprak, Aranguiz, Papadopoulos, Kiessling, Kampl and Hilbert are all hurt and won't be available for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Bernd Leno, Tin Jedvaj, Wendell, Kyriakos Papadopoulos, Jonathan Tah, Christoph Kramer, Karim Bellarabi, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Stefan Kießling, Javier Hernández, Julian Brandt.
Coach: G. Seoane.
