Recent form and trajectory

Villarreal: they come in on the back of a defeat, following two wins, one draw and one defeat before that. That is two wins, one draw and two defeats from the last five, worth 7 points. Their 2025-season record in our dataset (80 scored and 76 conceded in 51 matches, 1.57 and 1.49 per game) points to a fairly even balance between the two ends of the pitch. That is reflected in a form rating of 35.0 out of 100, and they sit 19th on a goal difference of 0. For a club of Villarreal's standing, that is a season off track rather than a slow start.
