I don't think anyone expected Real Madrid to lose this game. They must have been surprised by this result. I would say that the match was actually in the middle. Both teams played as if they wanted to win, but of course there has to be one winner. The first half ended in a draw with mutual goals. In the second half, real madrid was the team that started fast and scored within 3 minutes. But they couldn't stop the goals they conceded and had to be defeated.
It was a shocking to see Real Madrid throw away a 2-1 lead in the second half to Vilareal thanks to Samuel Chukwueze who won man of the match for his superb performance in the game and handing his team the lead in the closing minutes of the game. If Real Madrid put up this level of performance against Chelsea in the champions league then I doubt they will be able to eliminate Chelsea.

Maybe I am one of those people who did not expect that Real Madrid would lose this match. Moreover, they are playing at home, they should be able to win easily enough. However, Villarreal is a pretty tough opponent and we can see the two teams returning goals to each other in this match. Real Madrid not only accepted defeat, but after the game was over there was an incident by Valverde hitting Villarreal player Alex Baena in the parking area. The motive, as reported by Marca, was because Baena said something about his son while on the pitch.For more details, you can see this news article: https://www.marca.com/en/football/real-madrid/2023/04/09/64323790e2704e455f8b4595.html

Bookmakers apparently do not believe in the victory of Villereal, otherwise they would not have given odds of 6.4.
It is clear that Real Madrid is the clear favorite here and the statistics say that in the last 5 games Real Madrid scores an average of 3.00 goals per game is a fantastic number.
If Real will score in this match and 2-3 goals, it will be almost unreal to recoup Villereal.
Villereal is not a team that plays from the defense and most likely, as usual, they prefer open, attacking soccer with lots of dangerous moments and goals.
So it seems that only tremendous luck and relaxation of Real players can help Villereal.
Apart from the bookmakers who give odds of 6.4 and I think Real Madrid's chances are much greater to get a full win in this match, Real Madrid have scored 10 goals in the previous two matches and their front line is at its best right now. Villareal was not in a favorable shape during the trip to Santiago Bernabeu and my prediction is that Real Madrid will get a full win in that match and Villareal will concede above 3 goals.It is clear that Real Madrid is the clear favorite here and the statistics say that in the last 5 games Real Madrid scores an average of 3.00 goals per game is a fantastic number.

Even though the advantage is in Ancelotti's men, Villareal could surprise and make it difficult for Real Madrid to play in the first round, but there is a bigger chance that this match will be won by Real Madrid because many factors are currently in their favor, let's see how Ancelotti gives another surprise in this game.
This is not the first time Kike Setien has beaten Real in La Liga. In the first round, Villereal also beat Real Madrid 2-1.
Barcelona has the opportunity to widen the 15-point gap with Real Madrid if they can win over Girona on matchday 28, surprisingly, Real Madrid suffered a defeat to Villarreal at the Santaiago Bernabeu and made the chances of being on the path to the La Liga title even more difficult with 10 games remaining and 12 points adrift of Barcelona. Barcelona can fully focus on La Liga after being eliminated in the Copa del rey and also the Europa League, this made it a little easier for Barcelona to win the La Liga title after last being champions in the 2018/2019 season.
Real Madrid's defeat by Villarreal was indeed very surprising. before the game started I bet with confidence on Real Madrid. After I saw Real Madrid beat Barcelona in the Copa del Rey with an extraordinary score, because of that I feel Real Madrid will continue to get positive results in every game that remains. but it turns out Villareal can actually beat Real Madrid. even in that match Villarreal had very good attack coordination which troubled Real Madrid's defense several times. but for Barcelona they should have no problems against Girona. I'm also sure Barcelona will win and get full points.but unfortunately my prediction was wrong that Villarreal gave a very good performance and luckily Samuel Chukwueze was able to add 1 goal in the final minutes.
this makes Madrid far behind in points from Barcelona and it is difficult to catch the number 1 position in the Spanish league.

Barca will only focus on the remaining matches in La Liga. they really enjoyed the last game with their current point difference. all you have to do is focus on the remaining matches.
Barca's tough opponents may only be Betis, Atletico and Real Sociedad. if Barca can cope and get the winning points from another game with a weaker team. Barca has been confirmed with the La Liga trophy this season.
Yes, so I think they already have La Liga champions this season. Real Madrid are very difficult to catch up, after losing to Sevilla made their points difference even further. In addition, Barcelona is focused on one competition. Perhaps the La Liga champions are the focus of the season for Xavi. They failed miserably in the UCL and UEFA and that proves Barcelona don't have a strong mentality in Europe yet. In fact, I thought Barcelona would have won in the Copa Del Rey semi-finals, but they lost at home.
So unbelievable to think Villarreal will defeat real madrid one of the strongest team in the Spanish league. Villarreal performance was very impressive and their result they achieved. Real Madrid lose to Villarreal is an advantage for Barcelona to win the league season.
Barcelona will be Spanish Champion this year. When they played vs Real Madrid in the league, they showed who will be the Champion. In the Copa der Rey, Real won, so every team should win a cup this year. In the league Real cant win anything this year, so actually it it not bad that they lost. The odds were 1.55 on Real Madrid to win and 5.8 on Villarreal to win, so many didnt think Real would lose at home.

Real Madrid suffer a second league defeat of the season again to Villareal on Saturday night, despite a fun attacking performance in the opening hour Samuel put a who to inspire his teammate to a 3-2 comeback and it felt like a pre-season friendly with the laliga race over the only other reason for real Madrid to come about this home fixture against Villareal was the chance to keep this good form and maintain momentum ahead of Chelsea tie and I think that was why Ancelotti did not completely switch out the entire starting xi as he wants to maintain some level of consistency and form ahead of champion league

Same thing I thought at first I thought Real Madrid would win easily based on their impressive game against Barcelona
but the final result is not as expected on the contrary, Villarreal won the match I'm sure many gamblers have lost in this match
Madrid defeat clearly opened up greater opportunities for Barcelona and add more points in the next match.

I'm also sure Barcelona will win and get full points. I have to say rotation doesn't run well because the players such as Asensio and Ceballos has unable to performing well as the replacement of Modric or Kroos and Ancelotti indeed can played Valverde since the beginning of match but he didn't that and the result is Madrid have to lose from Villarreal and apparently Villarreal is the team who cannot able to beated by Madrid this season because Madrid has been losing twice
I think this is clearly Madrid want to focus to other competitions and already give up for Laliga title because he more prefer to rested some of key players in this match although this game is very important for them and after this result Barcelona had good chances to wided their points gap became an 15 points because they only playing against weak team Girona and today if Barcelona can able to do that then they will be very near to Laliga title
With yet another rotation leading to yet another defeat, it appears their focus is once again redirected towards earning UCL trophies. While Laliga may not hold as much significance this season, it is still important for Madrid to focus on other cups and perform well in those arenas.I think this is clearly Madrid want to focus to other competitions and already give up for Laliga title because he more prefer to rested some of key players in this match although this game is very important for them and after this result Barcelona had good chances to wided their points gap became an 15 points because they only playing against weak team Girona and today if Barcelona can able to do that then they will be very near to Laliga title
The current season has presented both difficulties and moments of wonder for Madrid. Unfortunately, their recent 3-2 defeat to Villarreal in Laliga means that Barcelona now has the potential to extend their lead by 15 points if they secure a win against Girona. Congratulations to Barcelona as they on their way towards clinching the Laliga title.
villarreal was a nightmare for real madrid in laliga this season because in the first meeting villarreal was able to beat real madrid with a score of 2-1, even in the second meeting in laliga this season villarreal was able to steal full points at the bernabeu with a final score of 1-2. Isn't this a bad thing for real madrid when dealing with villarreal.
It seems like that villarela is also become another strongest rival for madrid other than barcelona by seeing the result from previous meetings between villareal vs madrid. The result against villareal has made madrid lose all of the chances to compete with barcelona to get la liga. Real madrid technically lose its chance since it was losing against barcelona in el classico which happened before. It's true that Real Madrid's advantage was an own goal scored by Torres in the 16th minute, but Chukwueze was able to equalize quickly in the 39th minute. Even though Real Madrid took the lead again through Vini goal in the 48th minute, it didn't break the spirit of the Villarreal players, where in the 70th minute Morales able to equalize at 2-2 until in the end Chukwueze scored a goal in the 80th minute which made villarreal lock in victory in this match.
Real madrid unable to maximize the leads against villareal due to the own goal. It was a very bad performance from real madrid. This strategy was working when real madrid was against barcelona but surprisingly villareal was able to read all of the strategy that used by madrid carefully. I must believe if villareal is strong enough to be a competitor for real madrid.
This is the 5th defeat for Real Madrid this season which makes it a little difficult for them to catch up on points from Barcelona. I think Real Madrid hopes in the fight for the La Liga title have run aground from this defeat because La Liga only leaves 10 more matches for Real Madrid.
It will impossible for real madrid to catch up barcelona. The gap is too big to be chased by real madrid, It will never be impossible for madrid to win the la liga trophy. The possible thing if barcelona will get lose streaks.

11 more matches and Barcelona are still at the top of the standings with a difference of 12 points from Real Madrid in position 2. Madrid must win streak in the last remaining matches and hope that Barcelona will lose 3 times. Meanwhile, Barcelona just have to keep focusing on winning at least until the 35th jornada and they can lock up the La Liga title this season.
The fight for the last Champions League ticket is also still tight, the 3 teams that are the strongest candidates are Real Betis, Sociedad and Villareal. I think that's the drama that's going to happen in the rest of the league this season.
Barcelona must maintain its quality in the remaining few matches to end the drama of the La Liga trophy hunt. At the moment Barcelona are not under pressure at all, they are still safe in first place despite losing two or three matches. Real Madrid will continue to try to catch Barcelona even though it is difficult, Barcelona, which is still consistent in La Liga, will continue to fill up gas to secure trophies before La Liga enters its final match.The fight for the last Champions League ticket is also still tight, the 3 teams that are the strongest candidates are Real Betis, Sociedad and Villareal.

Barcelona conditions are very favorable, a 12-point lead makes the La Liga trophy very close to them. I think the top three positions will belong to Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. Meanwhile, the remaining one UCL ticket will be contested by Sociedad, Betis and Villarreal.
By the way, congrats to them who almost finished the 2022/2023 season as champions.

Barcelona didn't play in european competition and coppa del rey which made their top priority is the la liga title. The conditions were very favorable for them to secure the title, while real madrid still had to focus on the champions league and coppa del rey which forced them to rotate players. Even though it's not 0% yet, but madrid still has a chance if barcelona is inconsistent. Barcelona conditions are very favorable, a 12-point lead makes the La Liga trophy very close to them. I think the top three positions will belong to Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. Meanwhile, the remaining one UCL ticket will be contested by Sociedad, Betis and Villarreal.
