Match preview

Villarreal host Real Madrid in the La Liga on 24 January 2026. Villarreal sit 3rd on 66 points and Real Madrid are 2nd on 82. Villarreal have won 3 of their last 5 (WLWWL), while Real Madrid have won 4 of 5 (LWWWW). In their last 2 meetings, Villarreal won 0, Real Madrid won 2 and 0 ended level. These are probabilities from past results, not guarantees: football upsets happen every week.

How this is worked out

Each club has an Elo rating that moves after every result (bigger wins move it more, home sides get a small boost). We turn the rating gap into expected goals and use a Poisson model to get win, draw and loss chances. The prediction is locked at kick-off and never edited.

Probabilities, not promises. For analysis and entertainment only. 18+.
