After three consecutive matches away from home, Real Madrid return to the Santiago Bernabéu to take on Villarreal.
Xabi Alonso’s men will hope to carry the momentum from their dominant Champions League victory over Karait back to the Spanish capital. Kylian Mbappé bagged a hat trick, Thibaut Courtois kept a clean sheet and Eduardo Camavinga found the back of the net for the first time since April.
Three more points, this time against Villarreal, would send Real Madrid into the October international break with just one Atlético Madrid-sized stain on their otherwise perfect record this season. The Yellow Submarine, though, are more than capable of handing Los Blancos third second consecutive defeat in La Liga.
