Villarreal has struggled this season, with a low 12th place and 12 points in 11 matches. They have improved by winning away against Granada in the last round. The home field, once a strong advantage, has become an inconvenience as they only won once in six matches and lost four times. Their ambition to compete for the top of the table is lacking.

Athletic Bilbao, currently in 6th place, has only managed one point in their last two matches against Valencia and Barcelona. They are a potential top contender in the table. They won the King’s Cup, a Spanish league, UE Rubi, a harder match. However, unlike their rivals, Athletic Bilbao has no European competition obligations, providing them with more rest time.
