Villarreal XI vs Liverpool: Team News & Predicted Lineup

Gerard Moreno’s injury offers Villarreal manager Unai Emery quite the selection headache as he takes his side to Liverpool for the first-leg of their Champions League semi-final on Wednesday evening.

The influential forward is confirmed to be out until May after picking up a cruel muscle injury in a La Liga win over Getafe earlier this month.

As such, it remains unclear as to who will replace the Spanish international and lead the attack alongside the impressive Arnaut Danjuma, who has been linked with a move to Anfield.
