Expected in Marseille on Thursday evening in the round of 16 first leg of the Europa League, Villarreal was a hit this weekend.
Like OM who defeated Clermont on Saturday evening (1-5), the club from the Valencia suburbs made short work of Granada this Sunday (5-1).
A hat-trick from Sorloth and goals from Capoue and Guedes allowed the yellow submarine to easily make the difference.
In the ranking, Marcelino’s team, which starts from afar, moves up to 12e position. 10 lengths from the first European position.
