Valencia, just like Villarreal, did not start the season very strongly, but they managed to curve their way out and they are now in sixth place, just four points off the Champions League slot. While they seek that slot domestically, they also feel the Europa League is a good channel for the same. Valencia go to this clash from a 0 – 2 loss to Rayo Vallecano, which ended a run of 17 unbeaten matches, while Villarreal head to the game winless in the last three matches – two losses and a draw. Villarreal are however unbeaten in their last three home matches and they have lost just two of their last 12 at home, though six draws means their rise has not been very significant. Villarreal are however unbeaten in the last five home matches in the Europa League, with three wins and two draws and they have failed to score in three of the last 10 Europa League home matches, and kept two clean sheets in the process. Whenever Villarreal have failed to score at home in Europa League in the last 10 outings, they have ended up losing. Valencia on the other hand, have managed just four wins in the last 15 away matches and it has been patchy for them in their last six away matches in Europa League, with three losses, two wins and a draw in the run. They failed to score in the three losses. They have however kept clean sheets in the last two meetings with Villarreal but they only have one win in the last five meetings with Villarreal, who have picked three wins.
