Team analysis: Villarreal
This match marks the start of a new season for the home team, who finished the previous campaign in 5th place. In their latest outing, Villarreal achieved a 3-2 victory against Arsenal in a friendly match. Over their last 10 home matches, Villarreal has secured 6 wins, 3 draws, and 1 defeat. They’ve allowed goals in 7 of these fixtures, indicating a need for defensive improvement, although their attack has been prolific, scoring in 8 of the last 10 encounters. Goals have been common in their games, with 17 of the last 19 home matches featuring over 1.5 goals and 14 seeing more than 2.5 goals.
Villarreal enters this match following a 0-2 defeat against Aston Villa. The home side typically operates in a 4-3-3 tactical system, focusing on quick transitions, particularly down the flanks. In this formation, the forward trio usually comprises Tajon Buchanan, Gerard Moreno, and Yémy Pino. It’s worth noting that when they attack, they prefer to channel play through the left side, utilising the pace and depth offered by Alfonso Pedaza. Coach Marcelino Toral will be pleased to have all his players fit for selection.
Team analysis: Real Oviedo
This encounter represents the opening match of the season for the visitors, who finished their last campaign in 4th place and achieved promotion. They come into this match following a home loss to Deportivo La Coruña (1‑2). In their last 10 matches across all competitions, Real Oviedo has secured 4 wins, drawn 4, and lost 2. They have been consistent in the attacking department, scoring in 9 of their last 10 games. However, many of their away fixtures tend to be low-scoring, as 10 of their last 23 ended with fewer than 1.5 goals and 15 matches capped under 2.5 goals.
Real Oviedo approaches this fixture after recording a goalless draw against Leganés in a friendly. For this match, the team led by Veljko Paranovic is expected to adopt a 4-3-3 formation but with a more cautious approach, looking to exploit spaces through quick counter-attacks. Up front, Salomón Rondón, Ilyas Chaira, and Brandon Dominguès will spearhead the attack. When they go on the offensive, they often direct play through the right flank, taking advantage of the width provided by defender Nacho Vidal. All players are available for selection in this match.
