Villarreal - Girona

Match date: 08/24-19:30

Villarreal CF

Following their victory in the first matchday against Oviedo, in which they left a very good impression, Villarreal will once again play at home in La Cerámica in this second matchday, this time to host a Girona team that started the opposite way to the Submarine, with many doubts and a tough defeat at their stadium against Rayo.

Marcelino's men will seek to secure another 3 points at home, remaining oblivious to all the transfer market rumors, which have been abundant in recent days in the groguet environment.

For this clash, Logan Costa and Kambwala will remain sidelined due to injury, joined once again by Gerard Moreno, who has been unfortunate lately. Additionally, it seems Ayoze might have a tough time making it for this match, just like Denis Suárez, who could soon depart from the club. Meanwhile, Pepé raised concerns by not training with the group; however, it is likely that he will be able to play the match without major issues.

Thus, the groguet starting eleven is expected to be very similar to the one that secured the victory in the first matchday, with the possible inclusion of Parejo in midfield, probably in place of Comesaña, and the uncertainty of who will replace Gerard Moreno if Ayoze does not make it in time: Buchanan or Moleiro.

The Senegalese player is in a spectacular moment of form and scored a spectacular goal in the first matchday. We believe he will continue in that vein, and there is no shortage of suitors.

The Canadian has the perfect opportunity to secure a place due to the team's absences. It seems that Marcelino is trusting him and he could play a significant role.

The Canary Islander continues to be absent from training and is unlikely to make it in time for this match. High risk.

Girona FC

A disastrous start to the league for Michel's team, marked by Gazzaniga's two errors. It was a shame because there were chances for Girona in the match, and the second half was good, but those two errors along with the red card ruined all the work.

Back to the drawing board to visit one of the trending teams in the league, Villarreal, a promising team this season. It is a tough pitch and a rough patch in form and morale for Michel's side, who will need to turn things around if they don't want this season to become an uphill battle.

Regarding the starting eleven, there are many uncertainties, Gazzaniga cannot play due to the red card, Krejci seems to be on his way out of Girona, Abel Ruiz and Van de Beek are still injured. We'll see if any new signings arrive to give hope to the fans.

One of the best performers in Girona's last match, scored a goal and created most of the team's danger. Girona will need him if they want to achieve something positive at La Cerámica.
