THE PREDICTION

Villarreal’s hosting of Manchester United in a crucial UEFA Champions League match in midweek came after The Yellow Submarine drew 1-1 with Celta Vigo last weekend. Unai Emery has drawn too many matches as Villarreal boss. They finished seventh last season when a top four challenge could’ve been on and they now sit in mid-table because they have drawn 25 of their 76 matches in Emery’s tenure in all competitions. They now come up against a Barcelona side that edged past their city rivals Espanyol via a Memphis Depay penalty last weekend in Xavi’s first game in charge of the Blaugrana. Barca had some shape and some obvious patterns of play that were being developed but lacked an incision and precision. Given that, another Emery draw would appear to be a likely outcome for this one.
