The Yellow Submarine were held to a 2-2 draw by Elche away in their previous league game which was played on February 6.

They are also undefeated in their last 12 home matches in La Liga having recorded six draws and six wins.
 
Unai Emery, the Villarreal manager, says the team needs to snap their current four-match drawing run and start winning consistently following their clash with Elche.
 
“At the start, we were good, you could see us performing really well with Gerard Moreno back. Without him, we lacked a reference point up front," Emery said.
 
"We need to continue to work on finding solutions for when he isn’t playing. We’re not losing, but the draws are holding us back in terms of being towards the top of the table. 
 
"We need to start winning consistently. There is no other option but working hard until we manage to do so. We have a lot we can improve on.”

Meanwhile, Betis FC suffered a 3-2 defeat to Barcelona at home in their last league match which was played on February 7.
 
The defeat ended the Big Green's five-match unbeaten run in this competition having recorded two draws and three victories. 
 
Betis are unbeaten in their last two matches on the road in La Liga having registered one win and one draw.
 
The last meeting between Villarreal and Betis in a league match was on 13 December 2020.
The two teams played to a 1-1 stalemate in an encounter which was played at the Estadio Benito Villamarín.
