After avoiding the drop and ensuring safety, Villarreal and Sevilla battle out with an eye on the upcoming season. The La Liga matchday 35 fixture at the El Madrigal on Saturday will have the hosts start ninth with 45 points, while the visitors are 12th with 41 points. Villarreal have managed to steer clear of the mid-table muddle and are looking for a strong finish to the season. A 3-2 loss to Celta Vigo last time out did dampen the spirits, but that was just their second loss since mid-January. Villarreal have, in fact, won six of their last nine league matches and are finishing the season very strong. Their defensive worries are still not cleared, though, as their tally of 58 goals is the third-most by any side in the division ahead of this round. With three wins out of the last four at home, Villarreal will hope they can continue that run.

Sevilla drew the reverse fixture 1-1 and are unbeaten in their last five matches against Villarreal. That aside, they are unbeaten in five league games coming into this match. Sevilla have won four of those, including a 3-0 win over Granada. The relegation worries that engulfed the club are a thing of the past, as the visitors look to end the campaign on a strong note and look ahead to next year. Goals have never been a problem for Sevilla, with only seven clubs scoring more than them. Sevilla will fancy their chances of upsetting the home team’s calculations, as the visitors have won and drawn two games each on their last four league trips.
