Eibar unlikely to test Real Madrid

Sky Sports, from 11am Sunday

Villarreal v Las PalmasSky Sports Mix, 11am
Villarreal rested key players for Thursday's Europa League clash at home to Slavia Prague and were held to a disappointing 2-2 draw.

Head coach Javier Calleja will revert to his full-strength side for the weekend and they should be too strong for lowly Las Palmas, who are on a four-game losing sequence.

Dan Childs's recommendation
Villarreal
2pts

Key stat
Las Palmas have not kept a clean sheet in their last 27 away league games.
