Rayo Vallecano
Villarreal
- Abdoulaye Ba returns from suspension and should slot into the back four, along with Emiliano Insua, Ze Castro and Tito.
- Alex Moreno is expected to be utilised on the right wing, while Raul Baena misses out after picking up two yellow cards last time out.
- Jozabed will partner Roberto Trashorras in midfield as a result, with Alberto Bueno and Leo Baptistao providing the main goalscoring threat.
- Bojan Jokic is joined on the sidelines by club captain Bruno, who fractured his fibula during Villarreal's Copa del Rey semi-final match against Barcelona.
- Moi Gomez should replace Jonathan Dos Santos on the right-hand side of midfield, while Antonio Rukavina is likely to feature at right-back in order to give Mario a rest.
- Luciano Vietto and Giovani Dos Santos will retain their place at the head of the attack, with the two forwards enjoying good form in recent weeks.
This is what happens when lining up with a B-team - totally underestimating the opponent. Maybe Villarreal needs another change on the bench - someone less naive?
Joel Campbell with a goal and an assist from the bench COYG!
