Villarreal and Atletico Madrid meet in the final La Liga round with both sides already assured of Champions League football next season. As both sides will be with guards down in Sunday's encounter, we predict a 2-2 draw. The Yellow Submarine head into the clash after mixed recent results, but their home form has been excellent, winning three of their last four matches while averaging an impressive 3.0 goals scored per game at home. Defensive issues remain a concern, though, as the Yellow Submarine have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last ten matches. The return of Renato Veiga from suspension is therefore a timely boost for the hosts.
Atletico Madrid, meanwhile, have also shown inconsistency in recent weeks despite finishing strongly enough to secure another top-four finish. Diego Simeone’s side have won half of their recent away matches while averaging 1.5 goals scored per game on the road. However, defender Robin Le Normand is suspended, weakening a defence that has already conceded 1.3 goals per match across the last ten outings. Recent meetings between the teams have often been competitive and balanced, with Atletico holding only a slight edge in the overall head-to-head record.
Villarreal’s home games average 4.5 total goals and given Atletico's attacking potential, Both Teams to Score option should be considered, alongside Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals.
This Primera Division match will be played on Sunday 24 May 2026 at 20:00.
