Tenerife are set to play host to Villarreal at the Estadio Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez on Sunday in the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey.
Tenerife come into this game following a 3-0 win over Cartagena last Sunday in the Segunda Division. A brace from former Villarreal attacker Fran Sol and a goal from young English midfielder Samuel Shashoua ensured victory for Luis Miguel Ramis' Tenerife.
Unai Emery's Villarreal, on the other hand, beat Eduardo Coudet's Celta Vigo 4-0 last Saturday in La Liga.
First-half goals from Spain international Gerard Moreno, Spanish attacker Moi Gomez, experienced midfielder Dani Parejo and forward Fer Nino sealed the win for Villarreal.
