Villarreal’s management decided to change their head coach right before the start of new season and this decision will probably cost the team such desired place in Champions League group stage. Villarreal have strong first team but new head coach didn’t get to know all his players yet. This situation led to deserved home defeat to Monaco in the first leg, 1-2. However, Monaco are quite inconsistent team while Villarreal have skills to take revenge in the second leg and battle for their objective.
Monaco proved they are better side at the moment with their away wins. We should expect bronze medalist to hold on their advantage after the first match and take the place in the group stage with suitable result in the home leg.
Prediction for the match: Monaco to win with +0.0 Asian handicap.
