Villarreal will still resist the temptation to be reckless. If he can get up to speed quickly, he will be that crucial out-ball for his team. The key problem the Spaniards had was getting out of their own half. They scored at home against Juventus and Bayern Munich, both of whom they eliminated.

Alaves 2-1 Villarreal Nobody was under any illusions that Villarreal would be resting players in this match, but what will have irritated Unai Emery more ...

It wasn’t a perfect performance, but the pursuit of that has been replaced by the quest for points and in this case, they got them. When that was cleared, Duarte had plenty of time to put in another cross, as Serge Aurier admired him from a distance, which was converted by the always onrushing Gonzalo Escalante. Villarreal then hogged the ball and played like the side with more resources, but without the level of competition needed to penetrate a deep defence.

As they prepare for the second leg of their Champions League matchup versus Villarreal, we look at three bold Liverpool predictions.

Additionally, Liverpool would be sending a message to either Manchester City or Real Madrid that they will be entering the final primed and ready to be the new Champions of Europe. Thus, Mane will likely look to be active in this match and the final if Liverpool does end up coming to Paris at the end of May. There was a show at Anfield already, but due to the defensive setup of Villarreal and, frankly, a lack of composure on Liverpool’s side, they did not fully use the large skill discrepancy to win the match by a larger margin. Despite the fact that their EPL title chase is such that they cannot drop any points, manager Jurgen Klopp still decided to rest some players in the match versus Newcastle, so there will be fresh legs on the side of the English team come Tuesday. Yet, one early goal in front of the rowdy crowd at the Estadio de la Ceramica and it will be an entirely different world for Liverpool. Villarreal lost only one game at their stadium in the Champions League this year, and it was due to two late goals by Manchester United in the group stages. Now, entering the second game, Liverpool has a 2-0 lead and looks set to make their third Champions League final in the last five years.

It got worse for Unai Emery's men when Gonzalo Escalante doubled Alaves' advantage in the 30th-minute. The Yellow Submarines piled pressure on Alaves' goal but could not find the all-important equaliser. But despite his early goal in the second half, Villarreal could not find the leveller.

They never allowed the game to breathe until they chose to permit it. Thiago won a lot of the plaudits and rightly so. Once again, he was majestic in possession and unforgiving out of it. It’s partly due to Klopp’s style of play that it was never allowed to happen. To their right, the world-renowned Spion Kop was amassed with supporters waving flags, scarves and banners. It was a move met with boos as Alisson departed for the Anfield Road net earlier than usual.

Villarreal face an uphill battle in their second leg against Liverpool in the Champions League semifinals. Here are 3 predictions...

Liverpool is stronger than Bayern, especially in this form, but a team that reaches the Champions League semifinals should never be underestimated. The trio of Dani Parejo, Étienne Capoue, and Francis Coquelin really need to stamp their authority, but to do that, they need the ball in their feet a ton of the time. As mentioned, it will be a very tough task, but there is precedent to believe in the Spanish club. However, as said above, this is a Champions League season of comebacks. Yet, there is hope in the small town of Villarreal that the second leg will be different. In this game, where Villarreal is expected to play much more offensively and even to take control of the game at times, their midfield stability should be more visible.
