Good evening everybody and welcome to another MARCA in English live blog, this time taking you through the LaLiga clash between Real Madrid and Villarreal from the Santiago Bernabeu.

Real Madrid are coming off a midweek Champions League victory, but Los Blancos will be hoping to get their LaLiga campaign back on track.

Carlo Ancelotti's side were held to a 1-1 draw by Real Betis last weekend, which saw them slip two points adrift of surprise leaders Girona.

Villarreal might be the perfect remedy for Real Madrid, as they are coming off a heavy 3-0 defeat to Real Sociedad in their last LaLiga match, though they followed that up with a 3-2 win over Rennes in the Europa League.

Another positive for the Yellow Submarine is the fact they have won their last two LaLiga meetings with Real Madrid, with their last defeat coming back in May 2021.
