Match Facts
Málaga CF (18th, 2 points):
- Two draws in four games is the baggage of a Malaga that will look for its first win of the year against Villarreal.
- In the absence of Santa Cruz and doubtful Nordin Amrabat, Charles Días will be in charge of scoring, subject which Javi Gracia's men will seek to accomplish as well.
- Despite its position on the table and the shaky start of the Andalusian team, Recio is optimistic about the match against the "Amarillos": "This just started. There are things that we must improve, but we have a team to win."
Villarreal CF (3rd, 10 pts):
- The situation is completely antagonistic at Villarreal. Currently enjoys the upper area of the table and has only yielded a draw on the opening matchday of the season against R. Betis.
- One of Villarreal´s strengths is up front. Adrian, Léo Baptistão or Samu are the different variations in attack available to the manager Marcelino Garcia Toral to meet the absences of Bakambu and Soldado.
- Precisely, the coach was very pleased with the team's game against Athletic and about the dizzying pace they are showing in the early rounds. "It's the best second half since I arrived.” he said.
