Goal Statistics

A PG of 2.2 is decent for Villarreal in their clash with Maccabi Haifa, as is their run of scoring 1 goal or more in 17 consecutive Europa League outings.

An absolutely dreadful PG of just 0.8 should cause concerns for Maccabi Haifa fans, as should a 6 Europa League matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
