Atletico Madrid are having their worst start in La Liga in 15 years. They are set to host Villarreal yet remain winless, with two points from three matches. Let’s have a look at the prediction for this match in our preview below.
Atletico Madrid last went three matches without a win to start the season in 2009/10. Diego Simeone’s side scored first in all their three league games so far, but again, in all, they came from winning positions to drop points.
In that manner, they were punished on matchday one by Espanyol, losing 2-1. They would then be tied to draws by Elche and, most recently, Alaves. Previously famed for defensive solidity, Atletico have just one clean sheet in the last six league matches.
Villarreal were also guilty of dropping points in their last match before heading out to the international break. Nicolas Pepe scored a second-half opener, but deep in added time they conceded the equalizer.
Just like that they lost their perfect record and also conceded for the first time. In earlier matches they had beaten Real Oviedo 2-0 before thrashing Girona 5-0.
Seeking to bounce back to winning ways, Villarreal will be confident knowing they have four wins in their last six away matches. They’ve, however, kept only one clean sheet in those six away matches.

Our Atletico Madrid vs Villarreal Prediction
As they are playing at home, Atletico will come across as favorites to win this match. However, we cannot overlook the fact that Villarreal carry a good run of form into this match. The visitors have had a good start, only conceding for the first time in the last match, while they also have a good away return.
In their bid to rise from a poor start, we expect Atletico to put in a shift at home, but they have really few clean sheets, a matter Villarreal will want to make the most of. Our prediction for Atletico Madrid v Villarreal is for both teams to score.
