Moises Gomez then beat two defenders, but fired over the bar with a powerful shot. Almeria struggled to get in the game and Jonathan Zongo was wasteful with an effort that sailed wide of the post.
Mateo Musacchio and Bruno Soriano missed decent opportunities as Villarreal continued to have the better of the play.
The visitors came out strongly in the second half, as Verza fired in a shot that Sergio Asenjo saved. Helder Barbosa then rose highest to meet a header, but a defender did well to clear.
Suso and Ramon Azeez also missed from long range as Almeria continued to search for an equaliser. Asenjo then had to push away another Suso effort.
The same player threatened again, blasting a shot from the edge of the box that Asenjo somehow got away to safety. However, Soriano converted a late penalty to secure the win for the home side.
