The team has a good defense that has only conceded 11 goals and is the sixth least leaked, and their big problem is the attack that has scored only 9 goals and is the third worst of the national, although it is worth mentioning that it has evolved in this sector and networks in the last 4 rounds. Playing away from home, such as this Sunday's match, Villarreal have 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats, scoring goals in 4 of these games since when they play away from their dominions, they usually get more open teams and get more quality ahead and now certainly will have chances against the most leaked defense of the national. For the game against Rayo Vallecano, coach Javi Calleja has no problems in the team considered holder and goes to the field with the best.
