The Villarreal team currently occupies the tenth place in the SmartBank La Liga standings. The team coached by Miguel Álvarez Jurado has achieved 7 wins, 7 draws and 6 defeats so far this season. In the last five matchdays, the submarine has only won on two occasions and will come into the Villarreal B vs Las Palmas match hoping to leave behind FC Andorra and Albacete in the standings, since they are just a few points ahead.
In their last match against Tenerife, the Yellows drew 2-2 with goals from Javier Ontiveros from the penalty spot and Diego Collado in the 80th minute. Although Tenerife reached Iker Álvarez’s goal more often, Villarreal B equalized thanks to their effectiveness in front of goal and passing accuracy, which was 83%.

Although it was a very even match, in the 14th and 84th minutes Manuel Fuster and Higinio Marín were in charge of sending the ball into the back of the net. Las Palmas’ 24 shots (11 of them on goal) were not enough to level the score.
The team coached by Francisco García is in second place in La Liga 2 with 35 points from 9 wins, 8 draws and 3 defeats. For this new Villarreal B vs Las Palmas clash, Las Palmas is expected to improve its effectiveness and increase its good score, as it is currently one unit behind the leader, Eibar.
