Goals, thrills and good football

Goals, thrills and good football. Those are the three main features of games between Barcelona and Villarreal in the eight games that the two teams have played in the Camp Nou.

Healthy average

Looking at the previous meetings between the two teams, it is easy to see that beyond the results the two teams always put on a show. If the games are added to together along with the goals, it can be seen that on average each game between Barcelona and Villarreal produces an average of 3.3 goals.

Three big games

Looking back, three particular games stand out. In 2001-02 Barça defeated Víctor Muñoz side in Camp Nou 4-1 with Luis Enrique, Thiago Motta, Patrick Kluivert and Javier Saviola the Blaugrana scorers, while Víctor replied for the away team.

Last term

Last season, 2006-07, FC Barcelona eased to a 4-0 win as they started brightly and never allowed their opponents to settle. Ronaldinho scored twice while Eidur Gudjohnsen and Andrés Iniesta netted to complete the victory.

Six-goal thriller
