18:30
Real Madrid
Four of the last five head-to-head matches have seen both teams score at least once, with a total of 16 goals.
This, combined with Villarreal’s impressive home goal difference of 28:19 making them the second-best scoring team at home in the league and Real Madrid’s away goal difference of 24:14, suggests an open and attacking match.
Real Madrid comes into this game after a demanding extra-time battle against Atlético Madrid in the Champions League, likely leading to squad rotation and fatigue. Villarreal will look to take full advantage, especially at home, where they remain unbeaten in their last four matches.
What we say
Both Teams to Score
Given the traditionally high number of goals in this fixture and Real Madrid’s likely fatigue, we anticipate an exciting, open match. Villarreal will pose a serious threat to a Madrid side that has conceded at least once in four of their last five away games.
