Villarreal CF faces Alavés tonight in the third round of LaLiga at Mendizorroza Stadium (21:30), with the aim of achieving the first victory of the Iñigo Pérez era. The Basque coach replaced Marcelino in charge of the yellows and is seeking the first victory since taking over.
So far, Villarreal has two consecutive draws, both 2-2, against Racing Santander at El Sardinero and Atlético de Madrid at the Metropolitano. Despite the results, the team has shown good feelings with a braver and more offensive style.
This is the third consecutive game away from home for the yellows, who will only make their debut at their stadium, La Cerámica, in the next match against Deportivo. The team has yet to play in front of their fans this season.
Furthermore, the club already knows their opponents in the Champions League and this Saturday the schedules and order of matches for the European competition will be announced.
