In La Liga, Villarreal will play Girona at the Estadio de la Ceramica on January 22. After a slow start to life under new manager Quique Setien, the hosts have recently begun to produce results. In their most recent league match, Villarreal and Celta Vigo played to a 1-1 draw.
After an uncharacteristically lackluster offensive performance in which they managed just three shots throughout the game, they could not possibly have any complaints. With 28 points from 17 games, Villarreal is in fifth place in the league table.
In contrast, Girona struggled upon their return to the top flight, but they have recently rebounded and are attempting to maintain their La Liga status. Cristhian Stuani and Yangel Herrera scored in the second half to help them overcome an early deficit in their last league game, a 2-1 comeback victory over struggling Sevilla. With 21 points from 17 games, the visitors are 11th, which is midway up the table.

Due to injuries, Villarreal will be without Giovani Lo Celso, Nicolas Jackson, Alfonso Pedraza, and Kiko Femenia. Arnaut Danjuma is unlikely to play despite rumors about his future.
After being rested in the Copa del Rey, Pepe Reina should be back in the goal, and Jose Luis Morales and Aissa Mandi are expected to play.
