Real Madrid-Villarreal is a match valid for the 17th day of La Liga and is played on Sunday at 9 pm: lineups, predictions, TV and streaming.
The draw on the Betis pitch last week can fit. The pitch is difficult and Pellegrini’s team is also pretty important. But another half-hearted misstep, Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid certainly cannot afford it. Also because Girona on their own side continues to fly, and Atletico does not give up. In short, against Villarreal the men in white shirts only need the three points.
That should come, despite what are some important absences for Ancelotti that, however, do not in the least question the quality level of his squad. Vinicius is missing, then Rodrigo scores. Without forgetting that Bellingham, a true dragger up to the moment is living an extraordinary moment of form that began at the beginning of the year. In short, everything bodes, as it should, for a Real Madrid victory.
Also because, unlike the Blancos, Villarreal arrives from a very important commitment against Rennes in the Europa League that took away not inconsiderable physical and mental energy from the team. A victory that the men in yellow could pay for. In fact, we are sure they will pay, but to close as first in the group was very important. So something in the league, at least on this day, could be left behind. So? Then below we tell you what our prediction is.
The prediction
Real Madrid victorious in a match of at least three goals overall. No difficulty for Ancelotti’s team to take three points to try to pull Girona closer in the standings and repel what could be an onslaught, even, from Barcelona. The match at the Bernabeu should already unlock in the first half.
