Miguel Álvarez’s side are the top scoring team with 11 goals, in the second tier
A blistering start with goals. After six games, Villarreal B is the highest scoring team in LaLiga SmartBank. The Yellos have scored a total of 11 goals. The scoring responsibility in Miguel Álvarez’s side falls on the entire squad. Up to eight different players have scored a goal in the current campaign. Fer Niño, Arana, Collado, Ojeda, De la Fuente, Migue Leal have all scored once, while Pablo Iñiguez and Sergio Lozano have scored twice and three times respectively. In the table of top scorers, the Yellows number 21 is currently in third place.
Miguel Álvarez has managed to create and adapt a philosophy: to finish the play. The Mini Submarine is the fourth team in the league with the most attempted shots (58) and, moreover, the most effective in front of goal with an 18.97% success rate in their shots.
Villarreal B’s next objective is to get a win at La Rosaleda (Saturday, 6.30pm CEST) and get back to tasting victory away from the Mini Estadi, something they already achieved in their debut in the league, with a deserved win at El Sardinero against Racing Club (0-2). The Mini Submarine face Málaga CF, who are not at their best at the moment. The Andalusian side are 21st in the table, the team that has conceded the most goals (12) and the fourth most shots received at the start of the league (80).
