The likes of Bruno Fernandes, Edinson Cavani, Marcus Rashford, and youngster Mason Greenwood will absolutely make sure that the Villarreal defense will their hands full, offering a lively mix of flair, creativity, pace, and power.

Standing in their way though are the underdogs, Villarreal. This team, despite that underrated status, is also well set to get their hands on the trophy too.
