Match Preview
Real Madrid are the favorites to win the LaLiga this season. With traditional favorites like FC Barcelona and Atletico Madrid struggling for the top four, it has made Carlo Ancelotti’s job a bit easier. However, Sevilla are chasing them and they are unlikely to give up anytime soon. A slip here could give Juan Lopetegui’s men more courage to chase Los Blancos for the first spot in the table.
As for Unai Emery, he has managed to navigate his team from a tough start to the season. The Yellow Subramines are very much capable of finishing in top four and qualifying for the Champions League. They are currently 6th in the table with 35 points. While Atletico Madrid are fifth with 36 points and Barca on fourth with 38 points. Although Barca and Atletico have a game in hand.
However, Villarreal will be more motivated to get something out of this game. On paper, they are not expected to win this one. But if they are able to get something in this game, it will exceed their expected points. Real Madrid are aware of this and they will try to get the job early. By scoring early goals, they will try to kill any hope of the home side to get a win or a point.

Head to Head Stats
Unai Emery vs Carlo Anccelloti
The two managers have faced each other nine times. Emery has won four times, Ancelotti has won four times and one game has been a draw.
Players to Watch out for
Toni Kroos (Real Madrid)
The home side will try to press hard to put pressure on Los Blancos. Kroos will have to use his magic to beat the press and tire the opponents. The switch of plays by the German will be crucial for them to score goals. Also, it will help them in build up. If Yellow submarines are able to limit the influence of Kroos, then they will have a chance in the game.
Chukwueze (Villerreal)
This Real Madrid defence will be a tough one to beat. It is likely that Unai Emery’s side might not be able to deliver that killer pass in the final third. This is where Chukwueze will have to come in. The Nigerian will have to use his trickery and be that creative force through which Villarreal will try to breach Los Blancos defence.
