Real Madrid – Villareal
22.05.2021
Real Madrid play host to Villarreal at their Alfredo di Stefano Stadium in the last game of the season. Los Blancos are two points behind league leaders Atletico Madrid ahead of the decider, meaning that this has to go down as a must-win game for the hosts. Real Madrid head into the match after two consecutive wins in the league – over Granada and Athletic Bilbao. Kroos, Ramos, Varane, Lucas, Carvajal, and Mendy are out of contention for the home team.
Villarreal, on the other hand, are sixth in the standings, one point behind fifth-placed Real Sociedad. In their last five games, they have recorded three wins and two losses.
Given that in the last 23 matches between Real Madrid and Villarreal, the hosts have won 18 times, while the visitors only three, we predict a home win and over 2.5 goals.
This match will be played on 23/05/2021 at 19:00.
