Villarreal hosts Dynamo Kyiv in the second leg of the Europa League 1/8 finals. The match will be played on Thursday, March 18th at Estadio de la Ceramica (Villareal)
If we do not take into account the forfeit defeat to Qarabag, then Villarreal demonstrates excellent performance in the current Europa League. The Spaniards have seven wins and one draw. Additional indicators in this segment are also normal - 20 goals scored and six goals conceded. Another victory took place in the first leg of the Europa League 1/8 finals. Unai Emery's charges have not experienced problems with Dynamo Kyiv, and the match in the capital of Ukraine ended with a score of 0-2. The complete advantage of the Yellow Submarine and goals scored by two central defenders Torres and Albiol brought the Spaniards a comfortable result.

Dynamo Kyiv failed to show quality football in the first game. The team made nine attempts but never shot on the opponent's target. Almost all other statistical figures were on par with Villarreal. The Spaniards perfectly worked during set pieces, and the Ukrainians lacked creativity in the attack. In order to somehow rehabilitate themselves in front of their fans, Mircea Lucescu's men beat Zorya 2-0 in the Ukrainian Premier League at the weekend.
Even though several key players will not help Villarreal in the return leg, the game of the Spaniards is superior to Dynamo's in terms of quality and efficiency. Syrota and Zabarnyi are an inexperienced young couple of central defenders. These players are not ready to play at such a high level - they often make mistakes. The hosts can breach the unreliable defense of the White-Blues using simple combinations and set pieces near the opponent's penalty area. We are expecting another victory for the Yellow Submarine. With such a young squad, it is still early for the Ukrainians to reach the Europa League quarterfinals.
Prediction for the match: Villarreal to win
