Liga champions

Liga champions. Those four wing players lead Bayern in touches in the attacking third per 90. Juan Foyth and Pervis Estupinan were superb in the opening leg, and they will need to put in equally impressive displays to frustrate Bayern's wing wonders once more with Thomas Muller another threat to consider while he drifts around on the edge of Villarreal's box. The Spaniards themselves have decent wide options with Samuel Chukwueze and Giovani Lo Celso arguably the most capable of causing their hosts difficulty if deployed there, but it will obviously be a different kind of danger.

Bayern's wingers want to break down set defenses while Villarreal hit you on the break and they will have to do so in order to keep the game balanced. Midfield mastery Perhaps the most important battle of the evening will be fought in midfield with Dani Parejo, Etienne Capoue and Francis Coquelin all crucial in terms of their experience and ability to compete physically and technically with Bayern's impressive arsenal in the middle of the park. If the likes of Parejo and Lo Celso can see enough of the ball, Danjuma and Moreno can hope to get looks in on Manuel Neuer who looked surprisingly shaky in Spain and was fortunate to not concede more than once when he misjudged Coquelin's looping ball in.
