This game had to be postponed due to Los Blancos' involvement in the FIFA Club World Cup, which is why we present you with the options to follow this clash.

What has been Villarreal and Real Madrid's form ahead of this match?

Villarreal's woes have extended for most of the season. The Yellow Submarine has won only one of their ten most recent games, which has also included five losses and four draws. Their disappointing form was the main cause to see Javier Calleja being sacked from the team, with Luis García Plaza becoming his replacement.

Real Madrid enters this game having won six out of their last seven games in all comps, including their two FIFA Club World Cup games. Their two most recent domestic games have concluded with one-nil wins against Rayo Vallecano and Huesca. The club's away form in the Spanish top flight has been far from impressive, as they have lost three out of their last five games on the road.

What is the current position of Villarreal and Real Madrid in La Liga?

Villarreal enters this game in relegation spots, as the Yellow Submarine sits at the 18th spot in the Spanish top flight. Their home record shows may be a good reason for their poor form, since the all-yellow club has only won one of their previous eight games in the domestic competition that were held at the Estadio de la Cerámica.

Real Madrid get to this match owning the fourth spot in La Liga after winning nine games, drawing twice and losing five. Four of those five losses have taken place on the road, including that 5-1 thumping in El Clásico and a disappointing 3-0 display against Eibar.
