Match Facts:
Villarreal CF (5th, 51 pts):
-The Submarino Amarillo continue their quest for European football after a 1-0 win in their last game away to R. Betis at the Benito Villamarin. Adrian's goal kept Villarreal's hopes alive and Europe is now closer than ever.
-Aside from their European aspirations, Villarreal are also eager to get back to winning ways in front of their fans after losing 3-2 to SD Eibar in their last fixture at the Estadio de la Ceramica.
Athletic Club (6th, 50 pts):
-An impressive performance last time out saw Athletic Club run out 2-0 winners at home to RCD Espanyol. However, despite being on a good run of results, Villarreal will prove to be a tough opponent. This game is about more than just three points and a win would see one of these teams take an important step towards playing European football next season.
-Victory would also see the Basque side make it three straight away wins for the first time this campaign (Real Sociedad, CA Osasuna and Villarreal).
