Villarreal B vs Leganes Prediction & Betting Tips (23 March)

The Villarreal reserve can only play to maintain the championship since the first team, often renamed "the Yellow Submarine", is already playing in the elite. It is obvious that two teams from the same club cannot play at the same level. Each season, Villarreal B maintains itself quite easily in D2 but this year, it's not the same song. First relegated at the start of this day, the locals have not won in five matches in the league and are stagnating on a current record of three successive defeats without scoring a single goal against Eldense initially 2-0, for the coming from Elche in a second 0-1 and on the field of Eibar last weekend 2-0.

Opposite, leader of the championship with 3 lengths behind Elche, Leganes experienced a slight period of less good with two losses against Racing Santander 2-1 and against Eibar, candidate for promotion and the title at the same time 0-2. However, these two defeats were swept away thanks to two victories by achieving a clean sheet on the lawn of the promoted, Amorebieta 0-1 and last weekend, at home against Mirandes 4-0.

For this meeting, the striker, Requena (only 1 goal in 28 appearances in D2) will be suspended for accumulation of yellow cards. Remember that Iniguez (11 appearances in the league), Alberto del Moral (1 goal in 21 games) and Hugo Perez (4 games played in the league only) are injured. Javier Ontiveros (5 goals, 4 assists) is very undisciplined (12 yellows received since the start of the season) but will be in the game like Alex Fores (11 goals in the league) or Jorge Pascual (4 achievements, 4 cakes in the championship). Out injured against Amorebieta, midfielder Miramon (1 goal, 3 assists) is seriously injured and could be missing for this trip to Villarreal.

Excluded from the same match, the Nigerian international, Neyou (1 goal in 25 appearances) could return from suspension this evening. Finally, apart from Miramon's injury, the group should be complete in the quest to defend 1st place. Author of a double in the big success against Mirandes last weekend, Diego Garcia (11 goals in total in the league) will be there alongside Miguel de la Fuente (9 goals in the league) and Dani Raba (8 goals, 5 cakes in the championship).
