Villarreal vs Real Madrid Predictions

• Real Madrid are on a 23-match unbeaten run across all competitions
• Los Blancos have won nine La Liga matches on the spin
• Villarreal have scored in each of their last 13 league games

Rampant Real cannot be stopped

Real Madrid have long since been confirmed as La Liga champions but before they can fully turn their attention to next month’s Champions League final against Borussia Dortmund, they must first negotiate their final two domestic matches of the season.

First up is a testing looking trip to an in-form Villarreal, but despite the hosts winning eight of their last 11 league games, the away day should hold no real fears for Carlo Ancelotti’s visitors.

Los Blancos are on a 23-match unbeaten run across all competitions, have won nine matches in a row in La Liga and city rivals Atletico are the only side to have beaten them in 52 matches this season, albeit they have done it twice.

Hosts can get on the scoresheet

Real top most statistics in La Liga this season, including boasting the meanest defence, although they have conceded away at Las Palmas, Rayo Vallecano, Valencia and Osasuna since the turn of the year, all sides below Villarreal in the standings.

That should give the Yellow Submarine some confidence of getting on the scoresheet, especially as they have netted in each of their last 13 league games.

Both teams have scored in the last four meetings between these two sides, including their most recent clash at the Estadio de la Ceramica in January 2023 – a repeat of the 3-2 scoreline from that day cannot be ruled out on Sunday.
