La Liga
Villarreal remains in fifth place and demonstrated good form, which made them look towards the top 4. However, after six consecutive matches without a loss, they were defeated 0-1 as guests by Alaves, who ended the match with 9 players. At home, however, Villarreal performs strongly overall. There is no home game without a goal scored, and both teams have scored in 10 out of 12 home matches of Villarreal, who have only lost twice at home so far.
Real Madrid took advantage of Atletico's mistake in the last round and equaled Barcelona at the top, although with one more match played. During the week, luck, and maybe not only luck, favored Real once again and the team ultimately qualified for the Champions League quarterfinals. However, they once again showed difficulties away from home, as was the case in their last league visit, lost 1-2 to Betis.
Prediction: Both teams to scoreVillarreal is also capable of causing problems for Real and scoring against them, especially at home. Real had a tough and long match on Wednesday, but I still believe they can at least score, and Villarreal is not one of the most solid teams defensively.
