The Yellow Submarine got off to a rocky start to La Liga but they’re on pace to make it to the UCL round of 16. Unai Emery‘s boys, however, need to get a result from this one. Otherwise, they would find themselves in a tough spot.
This match doesn’t come in great timing for the Red Devils, though. Following another disappointing result in the weekend, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked and Michael Carrick will be in charge of United this time. Will the visitors bounce back in Spain?

Villarreal vs Manchester United: Storylines
Villarreal maynot be going through the best of times in the Spanish league, but their form has been a bit better in the continental stage. Emery’s side won its last two UCL games against Young Boys, while it comes from a 1-1 draw with Celta lastweekend.
Manchester United, meanwhile, are desperate for a victory that restores peace at the club. Solskjaer is gone, and it’s up to them now to turn things around while the club’s hierarchy tries to resolve the arrival of Mauricio Pochettino or Zinedine Zidane.
The Red Devils were destroyed by Watford on Saturday, suffering their second defeat in a row in the Premier League. In the Champions League, however, United come from a hard-fought draw against Atalanta, who they havedefeated on Matchday 3 also in dramatic fashion.
