We present to our readers an exclusive forecast for the match between Villarreal and Granada, where the opponents will clash as part of the next round of La Liga.
Villarreal
This season in La Liga, the "Yellow Submarine" has failed to make a mark for themselves. It has become customary for the club to vie for at least a top-six finish, yet currently, they find themselves in 13th place, extinguishing hopes of European competitions. In the previous round, Villarreal unexpectedly triumphed away against Real Sociedad with a scoreline of 3-1, extending their undefeated streak to six matches. However, within this period, they have only secured two victories and four draws. There remains a glimmer of hope for the Europa League, where they will face Marseille in the Round of 16.
Granada
The "Nasrids" find themselves firmly entrenched in the relegation zone, and retaining their top-flight status would indeed be a monumental achievement. Currently occupying second-to-last place in the league table, they lag behind the safety of 17th position by a substantial 10 points. In the previous round, Granada failed to defeat another bottom-dweller, Almeria, at home, resulting in a 1-1 draw. Their winless streak extends to six matches, during which they have amassed a mere three points.
