Maccabi Haifa
Maccabi Haifa drew 0-0 with Panathinaikos in their last assignment and the Israeli outfit set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation in that fixture. The hosts are expected to stick with the same set-up when they face Villarreal on Thursday.
Predicted Lineup for Maccabi Haifa: Keouf – Sundgren, Seck, Simic, Cornud – Show, Jaber, Khalaili, Sabi'a, Shuranov – David
Villarreal
Yeremi Pino, Denis Suarez and Francis Coquelin are all out injured for Villarreal while midfielder Alfonso Pedraza is considered a slight doubt. Villarreal were beaten 3-2 at home by Athletic Bilbao at the weekend.
Predicted Lineup for Villarreal: Jorgensen – Alti, Albiol, Gabbia, Romero – Akhomach, Capoue, Parejo, Baena – Moreno, Sorloth
Player to Watch – Alexander Sørloth
Norwegian Alexander Sørloth is enjoying a productive campaign with Villarreal and the 27-year-old striker has scored six times in La Liga and once in the Europa League this term. The physically imposing centre-forward should be difficult for the Maccabi Haifa defence to handle on Thursday.
