Villarreal will be looking to make it successive victories in La Liga when they welcome relegation-threatened Mallorca to the Estadio de la Ceramica on Tuesday night.
The Yellow Submarine recorded a 1-0 win over Celta Vigo on their return to action on Saturday, but Mallorca suffered a 4-0 defeat to the champions Barcelona on home soil.
Villarreal will again be without the services of Bruno Soriano and Ramiro Funes Mori through injury, but the Yellow Submarine did not pick up any fresh fitness concerns against Celta.
Trigeruros’s goal at the weekend could see the midfielder return to the XI, while Samuel Chukwueze is also in line to start, potentially at the expense of Moi Gomez in the final third.
There are unlikely to be many changes from their clash with Celta, though, meaning that Santi Cazorla and Vicente Iborra should keep their spots in the middle of the park.
As for Mallorca, Lumor Agbenyenu and Leonardo Koutris are still on the sidelines, but Moreno’s side did not pick up any new issues in the four-goal defeat to Barca.
Fran Gamez and Abdon Prats are options for change in the final third, although the bulk of the XI that started against the champions is expected to take to the field once again.
Ante Budimir has scored nine La Liga goals this season and will lead the line.
Villarreal possible starting lineup:
Asenjo; Gaspar, Albiol, Torres, Moreno; Trigueros, Iborra, Cazorla; Moreno, Alcacer, Chukwueze.
Mallorca possible starting lineup:
Reina; Sastre, Raillo, Valjent, Pozo; Rodriguez, Sevilla, Pedraza, Kubo; Budimir, Hernandez.
