Villarreal vs Hercules Match Preview
Villarreal and Hercules look forward to leave behind the bitterness of the last few weeks at the Valencian derby. Five consecutive defeats away have greatly undermined Hercules' self-confidence, while the hosts have failed to celebrate a single victory in the last four games.
Nilmar and Joan Capdevilla are the two most important returns for Villarreal, as they prepare to fight back for the third position against Valencia, who stands four points above their head.
Hercules' coach Esteban Vigo misses Dutch international Royston Drenthe and Farinos, but recovers David Cortés, Sergio Rodríguez and Abel Aguilar.
It's been over 7 matches since Hercules score its last goal away. David Trezeguet will be leading the offense, will he have what it takes to save Hercules from a shameful visit to the Madrigal?
