Barcelona vs Villarreal preview: Recent form, probable lineups and team news
While the home team is the favourite in this game, we expect an exciting match. So, let's take a better look at both teams now:
Barcelona
With four wins in the last six games, Barcelona is finishing the season on a positive note and they already secured a spot in the Champions League for next season since they will finish second in La Liga. That is good considering the poor start that the team head, but the fans can hardly be happy with the season overall since Blaugrana failed to win any trophies this season.
When it comes to team news, Barcelona has a long list of absentees, including Eric Garcia, Sergi Roberto, Nico Gonzalez, Sergino Dest, Pedri, Gerard Pique, and Memphis Depay.
Barcelona predicted lineup:
Ter Stegen – Alves, Araujo, Lenglet, Alba – Gavi, Busquets, F. de Jong – Dembele, Aubameyang, Torres
Villarreal
After they reached the semi-finals of Champions League, it's hard to say that the Yellow Submarine didn't have a good season. However, the team is currently seventh in the standings in La Liga, which puts them out of Champions League and Europa League. And if they allow Athletic Bilbao to overtake them in the last round, they could also end up missing on Europa Conference League as well.
Meanwhile, Villarreal will likely be without injured Yeremy Pino, Arnaut Danjuma, Alberto Moreno and Gerard Moreno, with the first two still not officially ruled out.
Villarreal predicted lineup:
Rulli – Gaspar, Albiol, P. Torres, Estupinan – Chukwueze, Capoue, Parejo, Coquelin – Lo Celso, Dia
