Atletico Madrid will go head-to-head against Villarreal at home on January 25. Atletico are in the second spot in the LaLiga standings and will be looking to take the top spot when they take on Villarreal. Atleti are coming in after a 2-1 win over Bayer Leverkusen in the UCL 2024-25. The hosts are in fine form and Villarreal are in decent form too.

Diego Simeone and Co. will be looking to secure three points and dethrone Real Madrid as the LaLiga table toppers. Atleti have a good chance of winning the Spanish league this season. They faced a setback when they dropped three points after facing a defeat against Leganes. Diego Simeone will come up with a proper plan to secure three points in an important game.

Villarreal will also have a good chance to secure three points. If they will be able to secure three points then they will come close to securing a spot in the Champions League for the next season. Villarreal bagged a dominating 4-0 win over Mallorca.

The Argentina forward scored a brace in Atletico Madrid‘s last match and helped his side bag the win over Bayer Leverkusen. Diego Simeone will surely be adding Julian Alvarez to the playing XI. Alvarez is in good form and can help Atletico in the attacking front with his goal-scoring skills. The young striker will be eyeing a goal or two.

Alexander Sorloth will be absent for Atletico Madrid. It is not going to be a big deal for hosts as they have Julian Alvarez fit to play upfront.

The Moroccan international Ilias Akhomach will be missing out for Villarreal.
