Real Madrid, Recent FormThe 1-0 away defeat to Mallorca will not have sat easily with the Real Madrid squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.

They have a modest amount of points to show from their last 6 games, in spite of only conceding 3 goals, because they have failed to be as predictable in their scoring at the other end despite a reasonable 7 goals. They are proving tough to beat, keeping 4 clean sheets in their last 6 games. Few teams have managed to keep Los Blancos away from their goal, having scored in all but 2 of their games this season.
Their strong run of form at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 13 games in a row.

Their share of possession in that meeting was 28%, while racking up 18 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target. Villarreal had 14 shots on goal with 2 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 5, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 9 goals and some valuable points in the process. On the road, they are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away games. They are still struggling to solve there defensive problems, having not kept a clean sheet in their last 25 games.

In their last 3 away league games against Los Blancos, Elche have conceded a total of 9 goals and that's an average of 3 per game.
