Real Madrid vs. Villarreal: Date, Time, Live Stream, TV Info and Preview

Denis Doyle/Getty Images 165 Reads 0 Comments Real Madrid had a strange week. After drawing with Athletic Bilbao, a result that cost them the second-place slot in La Liga, the club went out and dismantled Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey, winning 3-0.
With Barcelona reeling a bit of late in league play (just one win and two draws in their last four La Liga matches), Los Blancos find themselves tied with the Catalans and just three points behind Atletico.
They'll be expected to stay in the running against Villarreal. Though the visitors are fifth in La Liga this season, Real Madrid have nine wins and a loss in 10 La Liga home matches. Villarreal will take confidence from the fact that they drew the first meeting between these teams, 2-2, but Real Madrid are a much more dangerous team at home.

When: Saturday, February 8 at 2 p.m. ET
Saturday, February 8 at 7 p.m. GMT
Where: Estadio Santiago Bernabeu, Madrid, Spain
Watch: beIN Sports; beIN Sports Play; Sky Sports 3 (U.K.)
Chances: Real Madrid (76.3 percent), Villarreal (9.7 percent) and draw (14 percent), according to Bloomberg Sports

Thanks to his off-the-ball shove on Athletic captain Carlos Gurpegi, Ronaldo now faces three games on the sidelines.

The 2013 Ballon d'Or victor is very clearly a key part of this Real Madrid make-up, but there are those who may not be as a glum as others to see the talismanic presence sit some time out while he serves suspension.

With one eye cast on the club's upcoming schedule, we imagine exactly which players stand to benefit somewhat from Ronaldo's absence over the next couple of weeks.
