Villarreal enter this match following a 1-0 win away at Granada.  Villarreal now sit in 7th and a win here could see them jump as high as 5th place.  Pau Torres returns from suspension for the hosts.

Sevilla enter this match following a 0-0 draw at home against Barcelona.  Sevilla remain in 3rd this week but are now tied with 4th place Atlético Madrid on points and sit only four points above 5th place Getafe.  Sevilla continue to have no injury concerns and manager Julen Lopetegui is expected to have a full roster to chose from. 

It has been an evenly matched affair when these two sides meet at El Madrigal with the hosts taking two of the last six, the visitors taking three and one draw.  Villarreal have scored the 5th most goals at home in La Liga, but only six teams have allowed more goals against.  Sevilla have collected the 2nd most points away in La Liga and rank 3rd in away goals and 4th in fewest goals conceded away.  Both teams are playing well at the moment with Villarreal winning their previous three straight and Sevilla unbeaten in their last nine in all competitions.  Sevilla have drawn six of their last nine matches and a draw looks likely in this one as well.

Leganés enter this match following a 1-1 draw away at Mallorca.  Leganés now sit in 19th and are five points from safety.  Dimitrios Siovas is listed as doubtful with a nagging injury.

Granada come into this game on the heels of a 1-0 loss at home to Villarreal.  Granada now sit in 10th and are five points from a European berth.  Roberto Soldado is listed as doubtful but is likely to start up front for the visitors. 

Leganés have gotten the better of Granada in recent meetings, taking three of the last five between these two sides.  Leganés have struggled since the return of La Liga, and are winless in their three matches since the restart.  Leganés tough season hasn’t been any easier at home where they have scored the fewest goals and have allowed the 5th most goals against.  Granada’s away record has been average, they rank 11th in La Liga points away, and while they have scored the 5th most away goals they have also conceded the 5th most goals away.  Granada is the better side and should be expected to win in this match.
