Villarreal:

Villarreal faces an uphill battle after suffering a 4-0 defeat in the first leg against Marseille. Despite their historical prowess at home against French opposition and 7 games unbeaten streak, overturning such a deficit seems daunting. However, Villarreal’s resilience at El Madrigal could spark a comeback.

Marseille:

Marseille who have conceded a goal in each of their last 10 matches, enters the second leg with a commanding lead, courtesy of their clinical performance in the first encounter. Spearheaded by the prolific Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Marseille’s attacking prowess poses a significant threat to Villarreal’s aspirations of progression.

Predicted Starting Lineups:

Villarreal: F. Jorgensen, Femenia, Bailly, Mandi, Moreno, Traore, Comesana, Parejo, Rodriguez, Moreno, Sorloth

Marseille: Lopez, Gueye, Mbemba, Balerdi, Garcia, Veretout, Meite, Harit, Sarr, Ndiaye, Aubameyang
