Primera Division table positions: Villarreal - 19, Sporting Gijon - 18

Round 19 of the Spanish Primera Division comes to an end on Monday as Villarreal situation grows more desperate every week, now welcoming another relegation candidate in the form of Sporting Gijon.

Villarreal is on a disappointing 19th spot in the Primera Division table as the team that once fought at the top of the chart has managed to gather only 16 points in all 18 matches played this season.

No less than 10 games have passed without a victory for Villarreal in all competition, their previous success dating back in November against newly promoted Real Betis. Whilst their offensive is still showing signs of life, discreet as they may be, the real problem is the defensive which has conceded no less than 10 goals in their past 5 matches played.

Sporting Gijon is just one step above their current adversaries, with a total of 18 points, they sit just one point from salvation, this after their rather surprising victory over Malaga last week.

Their form in away matches seems to be better than at home, making for a very interesting fixture to watch, any team managing 3 points in this one could get a real boost and grater chances in staying in the Primera Division.

My pick: Villarreal to win ( over 2.5 goals )

Table positions: Sevilla -7, Gijon -17

Sevilla home table position: -11

Gijon away table position: -15

Intermediary round in the Spanish Primera Division with 2 matches on Tuesday, last of which will face two struggling teams, Sevilla welcoming Sporting Gijon.

Sevilla in a difficult position as they managed only one victory in the last 5 matches played in the league, standing on a very modest 7th spot before the Monday matches played off.

No great results on home ground either with only 6 victories and 3 draws in all 13 matches played with a goal balance of 20 scored and 16 conceded, a very high amount for home matches.

Sporting Gijon felt 2 spots in the table after their goalless draw against Zaragoza this weekend sitting on a precarious 17th spot, only one point above the crowded relegation zone.

They have managed only one victory in away matches played in the Primera Division this season, finishing 5 others in draws from all 12 played with an awful goal ratio of only 9 scored and no less than 18 conceded.

My pick:  Sevilla to win ( over 2.5 goals )
