Anderlecht vs Villarreal. Will the Belgians succeed at home?
On March 9, in the match of the 1/8 finals of the LKF UEFA, at the Lotto Park arena (Anderlecht), Anderlecht and Villarreal clubs will measure their strength.
Anderlecht barely made it to the next round of the tournament, the team had to try hard. Brian Reamer's guys lost the away match against Ludogorets with a minimum score of 0:1. This result meant nothing, as the Purple-Whites celebrated a 2-1 win in the second leg. In this situation, the clubs had to break through a penalty shootout, where the Belgians did not miss their own. It is worth noting that Anderlecht is not so lucky in the domestic arena, the team is only ninth. In the last match, the "Purple-White" houses broke the game with the Standard 2:2.
In the Belgian championship, Anderlecht is in 9th place in the table with 36 points in the asset after 27 rounds.
Villarreal
Villarreal was immediately listed as the favorite of his group, which the team confirmed by immediately winning four meetings. But in the future, the “yellow submarine” relaxed, first drawing with Hapoel Beersheba (2:2), and then losing to Lech (0:3). In any case, this result was enough for Villarreal to become the first in the group with 13 points. It is worth noting that Quique Setien's guys are currently in decline, the team has dropped to seventh place in the La Liga standings. Only the last victory of the "yellow submarine" over Getafe (2:1) somewhat improved the club's condition.
In La Liga, Villarreal are 7th in the table with 34 points after 23 rounds.
