THE PREDICTION

Villarreal come into this on the back of a trip to Asturias for a Copa del Rey Round of 32 tie against Sporting Gijon in midweek. That preceded an extremely impressive performance against bottom-of-the-table Levante as they hammered their Valencian rivals by five goals to nil and Unai Emery’s side will see that as a run towards the UEFA Champions League spots. They now come up against an Atletico Madrid side that cruised to a 2-0 win over Rayo Vallecano after their own impressive performance in which their plethora of attacking options appeared to be having a little bit more freedom on the pitch. A score draw would appear a good bet for this one.
