Preview: Villarreal vs Valencia Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds | LaLiga 2025-26

The Yellow Submarine emerged victorious when they last faced Los Che.

Villarreal CF are all set to host Valencia for their matchweek 25 fixture of the 2025-26 LaLiga. This is going to be an interesting outing between these sides, taking place at the Estadio de la Cerámica.

The Yellow Submarines will be at home and will be keen to use it to their advantage. They are coming in after securing a 1-0 win against Levante in their previous fixture and will now be looking to extend their winning run. Villarreal are now in third place on the league table and will be confident for their next one.

Valencia are not in their best form at the moment, and the upcoming game is going to be a tough contest for them. Having won just six of their 24 matches, they are in 15th place on the LaLiga points table. Los Che will be away from home for their next contest, and will have to put up a strong fight.
