Such a strong Villarreal’s squad was trully disappointed at the start of La Liga. They have actually 43 points after 30 rounds. What also hurt Villarreal’s defense is the matches Marco Senna missed due to injury. A rock in front of the back four, Senna’s ability and leadership are vital in Villarreal’s chances to reclaim a Champions League spot. Yellow Submarine are aiming to take all three points against Sporting after they won 3-0 over Sevilla and 2-0 over Valladolid last weekend.

Sporting had a solid start to La Liga. Gijon had one of the worst defense last season in Primera Division, but this season is different and they have conceded only 38 goals yet. It is the main reason why they are on 12th place with 37 points. The visitors needs to be more conservative but their insistence to win a match is refreshing when compared to other teams on their level.
Villarreal will win. Also try Villarreal to keep a clean sheet.
