Valencia desperately need points on Saturday, Oct 24 at 6:30 PM in the LaLiga. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Valencia come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 5). Villarreal, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 0D 3L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Despite playing at home, Valencia face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Villarreal have won 5 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Valencia won 1–2.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Valencia a slight edge, but Villarreal are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
