Prediction

  • Elche's nightmare season continued after a heavy 3-0 defeat to Sevilla. Bigas picked up his second red card in the space of a month in the first half, by which point Sevilla had already put the game to bed. Elche are now 14 points off safety.
  • Villarreal suffered a surprise defeat against Rayo Vallecano in their last match. They lost 1-0 after conceding in the 70th minute, but the Yellow Submarines did not seem threatening at all during the game. They are now three points off Atletico.
  • Villarreal won 4-0 when the two sides met in September. Moreno, Lo Celso, Coquelin, and Morales all got on the scoresheet.
