What to expect
Liverpool enter the match aiming for their third straight Champions League win this season. They followed a 6–3 victory over LASK with a comeback win against nine-man Brentford, Alexander Isak scored the winner, and Florian Wirtz created nine chances, the most since he joined the club last year. But injuries to Jeremie Frimpong and Dominik Szoboszlai mean manager Andoni Iraola will likely reshuffle: Ronald Araujo is tipped to start at right back, Ryan Gravenberch in central midfield.
Villarreal have struggled domestically, just two wins from nine La Liga games, and were held goalless by Elche at the weekend. That came after a 3–1 win over Napoli in Europe, where Alberto Moleiro missed several clear chances. Manager Iñigo Pérez will need sharper finishing from his forward line and more stability from a defence described as “somewhat porous”, plus a strong showing from former Liverpool keeper Péter Gulácsi.
This is only the fifth meeting between the clubs. Liverpool won three of the first four. Villarreal’s sole win came in that series. Their most recent encounter was a 3–2 Liverpool victory in Spain during the 2022 Champions League.
