- Venue: Estadio de la Ceramica (Villarreal)
At some points in the current season, Villarreal were much closer to the relegation zone. Still, after a brilliant run of only one loss in the last 11 matches in all competitions, Marcelino's team climbed to the top half of the table. In the last game before the international break, Villarreal won 1-0 at home against Valencia. The home team doubled the opponent's xG, so they deserved all three points. After another win, Villarreal should welcome Atletico Madrid with a lot of confidence.
Atletico Madrid can't be satisfied with their season. They are even now out of the top four in La Liga. Still, Athletic Bilbao are only one point ahead, and we should expect a tight race between these two teams in the final nine rounds. Atletico Madrid are far from a perfect form as they won only three of the last 11 matches. In the previous game, they lost 3-0 at home against Barcelona. The home side struggled to create goal-scoring chances, so they eventually suffered a hard defeat.
Villarreal vs Atletico Madrid pick: Villarreal to win AH (0)
Atletico Madrid are very weak away from home. In the last six road matches, they have two draws and four defeats. On the other hand, Villarreal didn't lose at the home stadium since 9th December (4-3-0 recorded since then). Villarreal should be closer to win in this game against Atletico Madrid.

Atletico Madrid team news
Atletico Madrid's situation with missing players is also far from perfect. Nahuel Molina received a red card in the previous LaLiga round, while Rodrigo De Paul picked another yellow card, so both players will sit out an upcoming tie in Villarreal. Also, Atletico Madrid should be without injured Vitolo, Thomas Lemar, Marcos Paulo, and Mario Hermoso.
