Explore Bwin's detailed preview for Villarreal vs FC Copenhagen in the UEFA Champions League. Stats, odds, predictions, and lineups for the 17:45 GMT match.
Villarreal's recent form suggests a team struggling to find the net, having failed to score in their last three matches. Despite this, their predicted 4-4-2 formation indicates an intent to push forward, with Oluwaseyi and Pepe leading the line. The midfield duo of Comesana and Partey will be crucial in dictating the tempo and providing service to the forwards. However, their defensive vulnerabilities, as evidenced by conceding 10 goals in their last five games, could be exploited by FC Copenhagen.
FC Copenhagen, on the other hand, have shown a mixed bag of results, with a notable win against Kairat Almaty. Their 4-4-2 setup suggests a good all-round approach, with Claesson and Dadason as forwards supported by a robust midfield. The key battle between Larsson and Partey in the midfield could determine the flow of the game. Given Villarreal's defensive issues and Copenhagen's ability to score, a close contest is expected, but Copenhagen might just edge it.
Villarreal's recent form has been poor, with four losses and one draw in their last five matches. They have struggled to score, managing only two goals in these games, which indicates a lack of confidence in the final third. Conceding 10 goals in the same period suggests defensive frailties that could impact their performance against FC Copenhagen.

FC Copenhagen have had a mixed run, with one win, three losses, and a draw in their last five matches. Their ability to score three goals against Kairat Almaty shows they can be potent in attack.
