“After the 90 minutes, I want to give us credit for the draw because the team showed that they know how to react," Villarreal manager Unai Emery said following their encounter against Cadiz.
 
"The draw isn’t enough, but there are good things to take from the game, such as certain players returning, which will help us for future games. We also were punished harshly for errors. 
 
"They are strong on the counter and they had more chances than what we’d have wanted. We are positive about the point and the response of the team. We will pick ourselves up quickly for Saturday’s match.”
 
The last meeting between Valencia and Villarreal in a league match was on 5 March 2021.
