Villarreal vs Atletico Madrid Analysis
Villarreal Preview
It was a challenging start to the 2023-24 season for Villarreal, as they were left just above the relegation places after the opening nine matches. However, the arrival of Marcelino has transformed their campaign for the better, and they could yet finish the season in a European position.
The Spanish team come into this round of matches after enjoying an excellent run of results. The Villarreal scores show that they have gone nine without a defeat, landing victories in each of their last four to climb up to ninth in the La Liga table.
The La Liga team stats show that they have improved at both ends of the field since the middle of February, evident from the fact that they have scored 12 goals across their last four matches.
Villarreal showed excellent character in their previous fixture, as they battled strongly to hold on to a 1-0 success at home against Valencia.
Atletico Madrid Preview
There will be extra pressure on Atletico Madrid in this upcoming round of matches in Spain. Diego Simeone’s side have dropped out of the Champions League positions after suffering defeats in each of their last two.
The Atletico defense has been uncharacteristically weak over that period, allowing five goals across those defeats. Meanwhile, more will be expected from the attacking players based on the La Liga player stats.
Atletico have failed to score in their last two league matches, with their most recent La Liga outing ending in a humbling 3-0 home defeat against Barcelona. A huge response will be expected by the team on Monday.
Many of Atletico’s issues this season have come away from home. Just four of their 17 victories in 2023-24 have been achieved away from the Spanish capital, while they have suffered seven of their eight defeats on their travels.
