Liverpool vs Villarreal: Storylines and Head-to-Head
There are not too many games between these two rivals, and that surely has to do with the fact that, normally, Villarreal almost always qualify for the Europa League, while Liverpool, for the Champions League. However, there is a precedent: only two games that were a victory for each one, so there are no dominators in the statistics.
That precedent is from the Europa League 2015/2016. On that occasion, Villarreal won the first leg 1-0 in Spain on Thursday, April 28, 2016; while the second leg was played in England on Thursday, May 5, 2016, and was won 3-0 by Liverpool, thus accessing the “Reds” to the final of that edition.
