The weekend ahead of us is the last football weekend as far as the LaLiga 2022/23 season is concerned. There is no doubt that all eyes will be on the duel at "El Madrigal", in which players of the home team of Villarreal will host Atletico Madrid.

The boys in yellow kits tried in every way to catch up with the fourth-placed Real Sociedad, but unfortunately they failed, so they will have to be satisfied with the fifth position that brings the group stage of the UEFA Europa League. Meanwhile, Atletico secured an exit on the biggest European stage, but they will try to catch all the spoils away from Villarreal and will hope for Real's failure in order to finish the season in second place.

Villarreal vs Atletico Madrid Betting Tips: BTTS

In the first meeting of the season, The Yellow Submarine sank Atletico in the middle of Madrid with a routine 2-0, which was their first victory since March 18, 2018. The Colchoneros will try to retaliate with the same measure to Villarreal, but their task will not be easy, which is why we think goals should not be missing.

All Villarreal's hopes of finishing fourth in LaLiga were dashed last weekend when they suffered a 2-1 defeat to Rayo Vallecano in the Madrid suburbs, which they ended their six-game unbeaten streak (W5, D1). Even with that failure, coach Quique Setién's team will do everything to finish the campaign on a positive note.

But, since their rival is Atletico, we'd rather choose goals! By the way, Villarreal has been playing very attractive football in the past two months. Their goal-scoring ability is incredible. They shook the opponent's net (at least once) in 16 consecutive LaLiga appearances, while in the last four home games they scored an impressive 14 goals.

In fact, the boys in yellow kits failed to score in only one of the last 24 league duels and that was in a 0-1 defeat against Barcelona, whose defense is outstanding and the best in LaLiga (18 conceded in 37 rounds). Despite the offensive power, Villarreal's back four are hiccupping, allowing a goal in all but one of their last nine rounds.

In contrast, Diego Simeone's chosen ones are playing brilliantly since the start of the 2023 calendar year, suffering just three defeats from 23 LaLiga clashes, two of which came against Xavi's Barca. In addition, we notice that Atletico have significantly improved their goalscoring performance lately, delivering at least three balls into the rival's net in five of the last seven league games.

Like Villarreal, Atletico also have problems with their back line. The data that the Madrid club save a calm net only once out of the last 10 games clearly suggests that something squeaks in their defense. Plus, two of the last three duels ended with a result of 2-2, so we hope that both rivals will give us an effective duel this time as well.

Despite Juan Foyth playing the full 90 minutes in last week's 1-2 defeat at Vallecano, the right-back complained of a shoulder injury after the match. He was diagnosed with a dislocation, for which he underwent surgery.

Alfonso Pedraza will not be on Quique Setien's list for Sunday's clash against Atletico. Last week, he was punished for the fifth time in the season with a yellow card and will have to serve a one-match ban.

Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid team news

Atletico travel to Castellon without Jan Oblak. The Slovenian goalkeeper has been out of the field for more than a month due to a neck injury. This means that Ivo Grbic will record his 11th appearance in LaLiga.

Diego Simeone will very likely be without the services of Yannick Carrasco. The Belgian underwent nose surgery yesterday (01 June) due to respiratory problems and his appearance on Sunday is not expected.

Rodrigo de Paul exceeded the allowed limit of five yellow cards last weekend and he is one of those who will miss the final match of the 22/23 season. His absence will open the door for 19-year-old Pablo Barrios.
