Villarreal will be bidding to make it four straight wins in all competitions when they continue their La Liga campaign away to Sevilla on Sunday night.
Both of these sides have underperformed in Spain's top flight during the 2023-24 campaign, with Villarreal in 12th position in the table, while Sevilla are down in 15th.
Diego Alonso's side are bottom of Group B, picking up just two points from five matches, and they can now no longer qualify for the knockout round of the competition, with a disappointing campaign seeing them draw two and lose three of their five games to date.
Sevilla can still finish third and claim a spot in the Europa League, though, needing to beat Lens on matchday six for that to occur, and they simply cannot be overlooked in that competition due to their incredible success, lifting the UEFA Cup/Europa League a record seven times.
Los Nervionenses finished in 12th spot in La Liga last season, and they have again struggled domestically this term, picking up just 12 points from 13 matches, which has left them down in 15th position.
