Villarreal name starting lineup for must-win Champions League trip to Young Boys

Villarreal travel to Switzerland this evening to take on Young Boys in a pivotal Champions League clash.

Unai Emery’s men need to win. They’re bottom of Champions League Group F with just a point to their name, two behind Manchester United and Young Boys, three behind Atalanta.

Domestically, Villarreal have been tough to beat but are similarly finding it difficult to get points on the board. They’re 12th in the table with five draws and just eleven points to their name, six off Atletico Madrid and a Champions League place.

Emery has set his team up in what appears to be a 4-3-3 shape. Gero Rulli starts in goal behind a back four of Juan Foyth, Raul Albiol, Pau Torres and Alfonso Pedraza.

Etienne Capoue will sit in the centre of midfield, with Dani Parejo beside him alongside Francis Coquelin. The front three will be composed of Gerard Moreno, Yeremy Pino and Arnaut Danjuma.
