Goal Statistics

Real Madrid have been steady in attack of late, finding the net in 20 consecutive La Liga matches. Their PG of 1.8 against Villarreal on Saturday suggests that run is likely to continue.

Real Madrid's defensive record is to be admired, Xabi Alonso's men having conceded 1 or less in 7 consecutive La Liga outings. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.2 for Villarreal makes sense in this context.
