Villareal, the team which is always stand in top 6 positions after returning to laliga in the 2013-014 season is now in 18th position and playing for not to demote to seguda division. The fact is, full of talent yellow submarine had a desperately disappointing season so far. There is still a lot of games to go and they won't love to drop back to Segunda division. After Garcia tool charge of Villareal, they are unbeaten in two games, one with a win and another with a draw over Huesca. Tomorrow could be the moment for them to start the year well against unpredictive Real Madrid. However, I believe Madrid will win this game easily with a bang. Madrid is still in the title race but one small mistake can affect the title race, they can't afford to make more mistakes. Players are improving and despite being a questionable form, Madrid won last 5 games out of 6.

Villarreal will be without skipper Gasper because of the red card he got against Huesca last time. Not big injury problem for Madrid but Diaz will miss the match because of a back problem. Real Madrid is unbeaten against Villareal in Villa's home since December 2015 and this time again Madrid is favourite to win the game.
