Can Villarreal Rain on Barca’s Parade?

Barcelona sealed the league title with a hard-fought away victory over local rivals Espanyol in midweek. The extraordinary Lamine Yamal opened the scoring with a rocket eight minutes after the break, with Fermin Lopez doubling their advantage in stoppage time.

Blaugrana have been in stunning form since the turn of the year, winning 15 and drawing two of the last 17 in La Liga. Since a 1-1 home stalemate with Real Betis in early April, Hansi Flick’s superstars have won six league matches on the trot. Barca are seven points above rivals Real Madrid with two games to play.

With five UEFA Champions League spots up for grabs in La Liga, Villarreal have all but secured a place in UEFA’s premier club competition for next term. The Yellow Submarine are five points above sixth-place Betis. It has been a solid season for Marcelino’s men, as they have won 18, drawn ten, and lost eight.

Villarreal head to Catalonia in fine form, winning the last four. After successive victories over Espanyol, Osasuna, and Girona, they made light work of Leganes on Wednesday, with Ayoze Perez netting a brace in a comfortable 3-0 home win. Can they keep up their fine run with a positive result in Barcelona this weekend?
