Real Madrid Breaks 4,435-Match Record as No Spaniard in Starting XI

The Copa Del Rey is back and this time out it’s a massive clash as Villarreal will host the Spanish giants Real Madrid at La Ceramica in the Round of 16. Both teams have had a very contrasting recent result as on one hand Los Blancos lost against thier arch-rivals FC Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final which was definitely a blow to the good season that they were having. On the other hand, although Villarreal experienced a draw against Celta Vigo n thier recent game, they pulled off the unthinkable before Vigo.

This is because when Real Madrid came to La Ceramica last week, in that encounter, Setien’s side went against the odds and pulled off a miracle as they won the match by a scoreline of 2-1 which was simply sensational and historic. However, this time out, Madrid would be seeking to get revenge and hence it is likely that with the added motivation to redeem themselves, Ancelottis’s team might just win the match. But Villarreal do know that this is the only tournament that they can realistically win and hence they would be giving thier everything with the incredible support from thier home crowd.
