Villarreal has drawn two straight matches and has been undefeated in their last five outings. The team is currently settled in the sixth spot of the Spanish top flight table, temporarily holding the second and final Europa League qualifying berth for next season. They are only three points below third-running team Atletico Madrid with the fourth and final Champions League qualifying spot.

The Yellow Submarine is coming off a 0-0 draw against reeling side Deportivo La Coruna on the road at the Riazor Stadium last Saturday in a game that they were favored to win, as per SB Nation.

It was a tough game for head coach Fran Escribá's squad as they failed to score a goal, but preventing the hosts to net one themselves allowed them to salvage the tie and a share of a point in the overall standings.

Meanwhile, Valencia finally snapped an eight-game winless slide with a 2-1 win over middling club Espanyol at their home ground of Mestalla Stadium last Sunday, ESPN reported.

Spanish defender Martin Montoya opened the scoring for head coach Voro's side in the 17th minute with a right-footed strike from very close range. The assist came from teammate Nani.

Los Che was able to double their lead in the 73rd minute with a close-range header by Spanish winger Santi Mina following a set piece situation.

Espanyol was able to score one in the 85th with a goal by midfielder David Lopez, but it was the closest the visitors can get.

Despite the win, Valencia remained in the 17th spot in the overall standings, only four points above the bottom three relegation zone.
