Real Madrid CF vs Villarreal CF Prediction 4 October 2025
Added on 02 October, 2025
Real Madrid and Villarreal, who have started the season brilliantly, will face off in the pivotal match of the eighth round of La Liga.
With 18 points and a 16-8 goal difference, Real Madrid is in second place, just one point behind the leaders. The day before, Real Madrid suffered a painful 2-5 defeat to Atlético Madrid, but before that, they had defeated much weaker opponents: Mallorca (2-1), Real Sociedad (2-1), Espanyol (2-0), and Levante (4-1).
Villarreal had a poor stretch of the season between August and September, drawing 1-1 with Celta Vigo and losing 0-2 to Atlético. Three victories followed, over Osasuna (2-1), Sevilla (2-1), and Athletic (1-0), lifting the Yellow Submarine to third place with 16 points and a 13-5 goal difference.
I seriously doubt Real's ability to keep a clean sheet, given their defensive losses. On the other hand, Los Blancos' attack is in good shape, so goals will be scored from both sides.
