Thursday, starting at 20:00, Villarreal – Zenit will be disputed, within the finals of the Europa League final round, the 2018-2019 edition.
Villarreal won the 3-1 win over the goals scored by Iborra, Moreno and Morlanes, respectively Azmoun.
The “Yellow Submarine” crosses a very weak season in La Liga, being in the fight to avoid relegation. Villarreal ranks 17th in the standings with 26 points. The group coached by Javier Calleja Revilla has surprisingly eliminated the Portuguese band Sporting Lisbon in the final sixteenth. Villarreal defeated Estadio Jose Alvalade 1-0, then drew 1-1 in Spain. In the end, the Iberians have managed an exceptional game in Russia, winning the tour in a dominant style.
The Sankt-Petersburg group was quite easy after the Fenerbahce double in the sixteen. The Turks have won 1-0 on their own, but Zenit has had many missed opportunities, even a wounded penalty by Robert Mak. In the second hand, the Russians won comfortably with the score of 3-1 and solved the equation of qualification. In the early stages of the domestic championship, Sergei Semak’s team defeated the Ural, scoring 1-0 away, Ufa, score 2-1 “home”.
Zenit will try to come back “in the game” on Estadio de la Ceramica, but Villarreal starts with an almost decisive advantage. However, it is very likely that both bands will be able to score, even if the fate of the qualification will not change.
PREDICTION: Villarreal to win @ 2,00
