Villarreal-Slavia Prague GAMETHREAD

Villarreal’s starting lineup is:

Barbosa; Rukavina, Bonera, Victor Ruiz, Jaume Costa; Fornals, Ramiro, Trigueros; Roberto Soriano; Unal and Bacca.

Pretty much as I expected given we figure speed will not be as critical as passing in close spaces; Slavia figures to play fairly defensively.
