Chan Kin-wa

Fans will be in for a treat on Wednesday night when La Liga sides Villarreal and Valencia take to the pitch for the LFP World Challenge at Mong Kok Stadium.
With last week's Champions League final between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid still fresh in the memory, spectators can enjoy a Spanish fiesta in a three-match event that includes Hong Kong club BC Rangers.

	There will be new players, a new management ... and we are confident Valencia will again challenge the top three

	Amadeo Salvo
Villarreal, who finished sixth in the Primera Liga standings this season, will meet two-time Champions League finalists, Valencia, in Wednesday night's main event.
The three teams will play each other with each match lasting 45 minutes.

Forced to sell top players David Villa and David Silva in 2010, Valencia chairman Amadeo Salvo promised better days ahead for the club after Singapore businessman Peter Lim Eng Hock bought a 70 per cent stake.
"Nothing is concrete at the moment as Lim is still clearing the deal with the bank," said Salvo.
"But he has made it clear he will rebuild the team by investing heavily into the squad.
"There will be new players, a new management and new targets and we are confident Valencia will again challenge the top three - Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona."
Villarreal coach Marcelino Garcia said tonight's match against Valencia, known as a Valencia Community derby, would be a great opportunity to showcase the best of Spanish soccer.
