Villarreal vs Liverpool live - What time is tonight's Europa

What times does the match start?

It's one of those funny Thursday night Europa League times of 8.05pm.

Where can I watch it?

As with most European football matches these days, it's on BT Sport Europe from 7.15pm. BT are also showing the other semi-final - Shakhtar Donetsk v Sevilla - on BT Sport 2 from 8pm. Alternatively, you can follow all the action right here when this page turns into our live blog at 7pm.

What do we know about Villarreal?

If Villarreal reach their first European final at the fourth attempt it will be because of a carefully cultivated blend of home-grown players and intelligent purchases.

No-one believes they have an easy task in their Europa league semi-final against Liverpool, one of the game's giants with a clutch of European silverware in their trophy cabinet.

But the Spanish side's appearance in the last four at El Madrigal today vindicates the 19-year strategy of their Valencia-born billionaire president, Fernando Roig.
