Eibar-Villarreal GAMETHREAD

Match is not on beinsport in the US, look for streams.

Stanley Chou

Villarreal starting lineup:

Asenjo, Mario, Musacchio, Gabriel Paulista, Rukavina; Pina, J. dos Santos, Espinosa, Cheryshev; Gerard and Uche.

So I think most all of us were right about a few bits and wrong about most of it!!

I like Chery on the wing and Gerard/Uche; back four is a bit different than I expected, I wonder if Ruiz is not 100%?

A couple of points: all Eibar's goals have come from shots outside the area, and none from strikers.

Also be aware their pitch is somewhat smaller than ours (65x103; I believe El Madrigal is 68x105) and will seem even smaller due to the closed-in nature of the ground (hemmed in on three sides by housing, including some high towers).
