La Liga 2022-02-12 23:15 Saturday, Villarreal vs Real Madrid.
Villarreal has recently regained their best form, beating the good Real Betis away from home in the last round, and recently winning two consecutive league games, and they are currently only three points away from 4th-placed Barca in the table, becoming a strong contender for Champions League qualification again, so of course there will be a strong desire to win. However, it was not good for them, but danjuma was just preparing to return when another main striker, Gerald Moreno, once again suffered a serious ankle injury, requiring at least a 3-4 week suspension.
Real Madrid beat Granada 1-0 at home in the round of the round, and finally came out of the shadow of the previous three consecutive winless games, and now they are only four points ahead of Sevilla in the table, so they definitely do not dare to take it lightly. But to their disadvantage, they will be away to Paris in the Champions League quarter-finals in three days, and Ancelotti cannot fail to consider this, while Benzema is still on the injury list, and even whether he can catch up with the away game in Paris is doubtful, but full-back Mendy can catch up with that game.
Although Villarreal's overall strength is not as good as Real Madrid, they are more ideal in terms of recent form, and Villarreal's home record so far this season is significantly stronger than that of the away team. In addition, Real Madrid still lacks front-line thigh Benzema, and also has to be distracted by the Champions League away match against Paris in three days. The trend of the index is also not very good for Real Madrid, and it is optimistic that Villarreal can achieve an unbeaten record.
