Villarreal’s line up is as expected. N’Diaye and Musacchio at the heart of defense, with José Ángel taking cover for Jaume Costa. Roberto Soriano replaces Jonathan, and Borré replaces Roberto Soldado.
Good chance for Castillejo to finally prove his worth.
5 canteranos made in into the subs list. Congrats to Larrea, Ramón Bueno, Cantalapiedra, Mario González y Rodri. Yay! Enhorabuena!

AS Monaco line up is the one as predicted. Germain returns to the starting eleven, while Jardim decides to give Bernardo minutes from the get go. Expect the diminutive midfielder to roam freely on the pitch behind Germain.
Comment away!. Endavant Villarreal!
