Villarreal have lost their last 8 matches (Champions League). Villarreal have been drawing at half time and losing at full time in their last 3 matches (Champions League).
Villarreal have drawn their three league matches this season and saw their weekend meeting with Alaves postponed, so they have had extra time to prepare for their Champions League opener. That said, they lost a friendly to Braga during the international break. Atalanta have made a stuttering start to the season, winning one of three league matches to kick off the campaign. That sole victory, though, did come on the road, which is a boost for the Italian side. These two have struggled in the opening weeks of the campaign so a low-scoring draw is on the cards. 1:1
Villarreal are hoping to have Gerard Moreno available for selection after the striker left the Spain camp early through injury. Samuel Chukwueze misses out owing to a hamstring problem. Unai Emery could name the same XI that started the 2-2 draw at Atletico Madrid prior to the international break. Hans Hateboer and Luis Muriel sit out the trip to Spain through injury. Josip Ilicic and Ruslan Malinovskiy were both subs against Fiorentina at the weekend and should return to the XI. Marten de Roon has served three of his four-match ban in Serie A, so is available here, but a lack of game time is likely to count against him.
