Fantasy Picks
Goal-Keeper
Keeping three cleansheets in his last five matches, a period which has seen him allow his goal to be breached on just two occasions, Alex Remiro has been a true watchdog of his side’s goal this term.
Defenders
The second best defensive unit in the league, Real Sociedad find themselves only behind Atletico Madrid at the moment. The side has clamped down on everything transpired against it, a side which has gone onto let in a measly four goals in 10 matches.
Their frugal brand of defending made it prudent to opt for the defensive pairing of Robin Le Normand and Aritz Alustondo from the side. The visiting team on the other hand will see us opt for the services of Mario Gaspar who has gone onto register two assists for his side.
Midfielders
Complimenting their defence, Portu and Mikel Merino have taken on the attacking duties for the club. Where Portu has gone onto score the four goals and record two assists, Merino has the two assists in his kitty to make the duo a must have pick for us today.
Villareal on the other hand will see us opt for a reminiscent duo. Its one comprising of Dani Parejo who has the one strike with Vincent Iborra’s ball handling capabilities seeing him complete the one-two from the side.
Strikers
Top scoring for Villareal with a staggering 6 goals, Mikel Oyarzabal needs little reasoning to justify his selection. Villareal will also see their top scorer, Paco Alcacer line up for us owing to the five goals and two assists he has.
He’s formed a daunting partnership with Gerard Moreno who has gone onto score the five goals as well.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Six goal man Martin captains our team with Portu stepping in as the vice-captain.
