Our Prediction for Villarreal vs Real Madrid
The club from "The Ceramics" had a disappointing last season. Yes, Marcelino's return as head coach helped stabilize the play. However, they still lost the contest for a spot in the European cup zone to Betis, finishing only eighth with 53 points. Meanwhile, Ancelotti added the Super Cup, La Liga, and the Champions League to his list of trophies in 2024, though they were knocked out of the Copa del Rey.
Currently, Carlo and his team still have a good chance of securing many titles in the new season. They've already won the UEFA Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup, and besides, they won the first semifinal 1-0 in San Sebastian against Real Sociedad. In the Champions League against Atletico, after a 2-1 win earlier this week, they lost by conceding early. However, they advanced thanks to a dramatic (and fortunate) penalty shootout series. Of course, there was also a crushing defeat by Barcelona in the Super Cup and falling behind them again in La Liga. But at least they moved past Atletico to second place with a victory over Rayo Vallecano, as Atletico stalled in that round. Villarreal has certainly improved. Winning nearly half of their matches, they secured fifth place and still hope to knock Athletic off fourth. The 0-1 against Alaves, even away, was a clear miss.
Ayoze Perez and company score 1.85 goals per match. But they also concede plenty, at 1.38. Mbappe and his new partners boast a grand status ratio of 2.11/0.96.
