In just one week, Manchester United have gone from dreaming about a treble to getting ousted from one of their domestic tournaments.
Manchester United suffered a surprise 2-1 defeat to Young Boys in their opening Group F encounter, thus they sit last in their Champions League group now. Manchester United came from the 0-1 lose at Old Trafford to West Ham United in the EFL Cup before they were beaten by Aston Villa on Saturday.
Villarreal extended their unbeaten record across all competitions to seven matches, when they played out a goalless draw away at Spanish giants Real Madrid last weekend. This was their fifth draw of the season, from six games played, which leaves them reeling in the 11th spot in La Liga. Villarreal are currently unbeaten in their last 16 European matches across both the Europa League.
Manchester United have a poor record against Villarreal in the Champions League, having failed to win any of their last seven matches against them. Given their recent states, expect Villarreal can win with the handicap.
