Villarreal vs FC Copenhagen Prediction, Betting Tips & Match Preview – UEFA Champions League 2025/26
Estadio de la Cerámica hosts a Group Stage survival scrap as Villarreal welcome FC Copenhagen on Wednesday, 10th December 2025 at 18:45 WAT / 17:45 CET.
The Yellow Submarine, 34th with 1 point after a 2-0 home win over Getafe (Soriano brace), eye a play-off miracle with mixed UCL form (0W-1D-4L). Copenhagen, 29th on 4 points post a 0-2 Superliga loss at Sonderjyske (late collapse), fight the drop with gritty defense (1.6 GA avg). Villarreal’s home revival (3W in 4) meets Copenhagen’s road resolve (1W-1D in 3 aways), but H2H is barren: lone 0-0 draw. Injuries: Villarreal sans Foyth; Copenhagen full squad.
At Socapredict, we’ve crunched stats, form, and odds—Copenhagen’s grit grinds out a point.
